Robert Griffin III can do battle with the best of them, but the Washington Redskins still have a major challenge ahead of them in 2015 when it comes to the opposing quarterbacks they’ll face in the regular season. Here’s our list of The 5 Toughest QBs The Washington Redskins Will Face In 2015.
5. Eli Manning (September 24th, November 29th)
Not-so-fun fact: The NY Giants were a top-ten offensive team in 2014. Eli Manning can be pick-happy at his worst, but he's still a deadly weapon (especially on play-action) to be had - especially with Odell "YouTube Darling" Beckham Jr. catching passes five feet over his head.
4. Cam Newton (November 22nd)
This may seem high, but Newton's got a brand-new mega-contract in hand and all the motivation in the world to put his considerable athletic talents to efficient use. This Panthers team is better than last year's losing regular-season record suggests, and a good deal of that has to do with just how high Newton's ceiling really is.
3. Tony Romo (December 7th, January 3rd)
Often the butt of jokes all over the Internet, people seem to forget just how much Romo can kill you when he goes into full gunslinger mode. Sure he makes his fair share of mistakes, but he's always been unshakeable and can dominate ANY defense on his best day.
2. Drew Brees (November 15th)
The New Orleans Saints may be a dumpster fire when it comes to personnel issues and a flurry of perplexing moves this offseason (Jimmy Graham to Seattle?!?), but this is still the Drew Brees/Sean Payton combination we're talking about. Get ready for an Arena Football-like shootout.
1. Tom Brady (November 8th)
His four-game suspension for the DeflateGate fiasco will be a fading memory by this November road game in New England. Regardless of the negative publicity of this offseason, Brady's still the QB of the defending Super Bowl champions until someone knows him and his team off the perch.
