OWINGS MILLS, Md. -- Robert Griffin III wanted to throw more passes, and it didn't matter that every player and coach had long left the Baltimore Ravens practice field.
All Griffin needed was his wife and a couple of members of the Ravens staff.
Lining up in the shotgun, Griffin had his wife, Grete, "hike" the ball by tossing it to him underhand. He then fired passes about 30 yards downfield as his 1-year-old daughter, Gloria, stood nearby.
From this impromptu throwing session to Thursday night's preseason game against the Los Angeles Rams, Griffin has repeated these words: Seize every opportunity.
