The Saints defense is riddled with problems, but he's more than likely going to look clueless out there. Unlike Newton, RGIII didn't gain his experience from beating top tier ranked defenses in the S.E.C.. The way I see it, if the Rams have a playoff team built in the next 5 years and are constantly making the playoffs, possibly Super Bowl contenders, and even if RGIII puts the Skins to 8-8, he still fails because sadly he has to live up to all those draft picks they traded for him. This is the modern day Ricky Williams. They say Ricky Williams is or was a good RB, but same happened to him. He had a lot to live up to down here, but his ego also was his downfall. Watching Ricky Williams play in New Orleans, I always found him waste, because Deuce McAllister got the yards, made big plays, and on top of that, he didn't fumble the ball.</blockquote>
