He should have been pulled well before that RG was hobbling around.

Curse or there were better teams all those years...hmmmm

Maybe the worst field in the league right now.
Any reason for that or just a slop hole?

I realize their fans like to dress like hogs but you don't have to turn the field into a pig pen to make them feel at home.

No, I don't believe in curses and stuff like that. For instance Cowboys fans have one too. Jerry Jones supposedly in 1995 asked God that if the Cowboys won the Super Bowl he'd never ask for another one. I don't believe God cares whether the Cowboys win the Super Bowl or not despite the great jokes about the hole in the roof was so God could watch His team play. They won in 1995 because they still had an amazing squad. They haven't won since because they haven't been good enough to. It isn't because of a deal Jerry made with God. You haven't won because you weren't good enough either.

You almost wonder if we were allowed to win the NFC East to make the letdown that much worse in the playoff game.
What? Dallas has done that just about every week for like 10 years

While the field might be to blame for RGIII aggravating that injury, it can't be blamed entirely. The original injury occurred because of an awkward tackle, not planting wrong or anything like that.

The crappy field didn't help anything, but I'd say that Shanny is completely to blame for that injury getting worse.

How many fields still use regular grass? Only like 5 or 6 now i think. The redskins have no excuse for this. They're pretty rich like us.

It reminded me of Candlestick back in the early 90's...

Did you watch the game this past Sunday? It seemed to me that in that first quarter we were the best team in the NFL, and then it all spiraled downwards as if by pre-destined fate.

I've seen that a hundred times or more in the NFL though.
