Some of the responsibility was RG3's

His performance was clearly suffering. and they had a good back up ready to go. So SOME of this is on him.

MOST of it is on Shanahan and the team dr/trs. What was wrong with him was VERY obvious.

Rg3 was playing his *** off before that knee injury...it would probably have been prudent to keep him on the sideline until absolutely necessary. cousins was capable. Ah well. it's unfortunate. It's a better league when the cowboys and redskins are actually in competition as opposed to one dominating the other. Hopefully the kid sees the same doctors as AP did...lol.

That's what the coach is for. If Bob was a veteran, he might've had the sense to take himself out, but he's a rookie playing in his team's first home playoff game since '99.

Hell, Romo was going to go back in with a broken collarbone.

I doubt any player in the playoffs (save Cutler) would pull themselves out of a game of that magnitude.

It doesn't help that he has no consistent receiving threats to help him out.

The key to stop the Skins is simply shut down the run game. SEA is built to do exactly that.

Don't be shocked if the Skins pursue someone like Amendola or Greg Jennings and go WR early.

The other part of yesterday, over shadowed by Griffins injury, is (i believe) that Garcon also went out of the game for a long period. His presence was a huge factor in our 7 game win streak.

Didn't they just give 2 big contracts to FA WR?

Pierre Garcon
Contract:5 yr(s) / $42,500,000


Josh Morgan
Contract:2 yr(s) / $11,500,000

Did he tear the ACL in the same knee a few years ago?

Don't stress too much. Wait until you hear it from the team.

Team press conference says they are getting a second opinion of the extent of an injury from Dr. James Andrews.

Can't be good news for us.

Same knee. The only blessing is that he's 22 years old still.

Right kind of guy.
Totally agree.

I can't believe how little airtime he gets compared to RG3, yet his stats are so similar.

Pretty sweet 3rd rounder.

I don't know how much difference age makes when you replace an ACL that has already been replaced.

I had mine replaced at 21 and it was never the same. I can't imagine having that same surgery twice.
