Is there any consensus on 2012 Football RC's, as to which is THE CARD?

With modern cards, I like to wait until the smoke clears before buying anything, but is there a clear choice for the best RC's from 2012?

To me it's Topps Chrome and will be until next year when we have sort out the panini mess.

I agree if you are looking at a base RC that it is the Topps Chrome.

Oh, never mind. This question pops in my head every week until Sunday afternoon, when I actually watch Robert Griffin play.

That entire organization is a joke, just like the Capitals. Both owners are more interested in making money off of player hype than actually winning a game.

2012 Topps Chrome.

Chrome are sharp cards, but I honestly do like the design of the Contenders. For Contenders, if you stick with the stamped cards for the autographs, you should be ok.

Regarding RG3, I really wish he could get traded. Neither of the coaches have really used him right since his rookie season, and I'm not sure Gruden knows how to use anyone. I never thought Cousins was good, but I'm pretty sure he wasn't necessarily as bad as he turned out and I know RG3 isn't this bad.

Chrome has the best combo of rookies, autographs, and parallels. There really isn't another good choice. There are more expensive products like National Treasures or Five Star, but hitting a high dollar refractor auto is actually possible compared to the other products.
