RG3 wasn't 100% healthy, thats why you guys beat us.
How many times do you think we'll have to hear this when the Seahawks win on Sunday?

I was hoping for 8-8 this year, some good wins, and real progress with RGIII. If you'd told me at the beginning of the season that we'd be 10-6 after beating the NFCE to death using rookies (RB, K, QB) who look like they are the long-term answers to our prayers, and in the playoffs, I would have fallen over. I will go so far as to say it looks like we could have one of the greatest who ever played at the QB position.
So good luck on Sunday. If Seattle wins, odds are it's because they played better football. You won't get any excuses from this corner.

I would never count on a RB being long term with Shanahan.

Give the dude a chance and don't overreact or overthink preseason. Go Hawks. Lacy will rush for 1,100 and 10TDs. Bend the knee.

Or "Wow.. if we had Rex Grossman and Roy Helu still, we probably win this game"

If repetition is the key to knowing something, then the Redskins should have exiting the playoffs at the hands of the Seahawks down pat by now.

Most reasonable Redskins fans didn't think this team would be a playoff contender or even a division winner this year. If they did, they probably are the same fans saying the team will go 10-6 every year. (even under Zorn) We call these people homers.....you generally call them idiots.
So tell me, what will be YOUR excuses if Seattle loses?

Global warming.

Aside from that, all I care about is getting the W. Which isn't going to be easy on the road in front of a playoff-starved fan base. We've faced (and defeated) some tough opponents this year but we haven't faced a team on a mission like the Redskins have been since their 3-6 start.
IMO it's too bad these two teams are meeting in the wildcard round. They both have a chance to advance deeper into the playoffs, it would have been nice to have this rookie v. rookie matchup after they'd both had a chance to get a post-season win.

However, I find this thread VERY ironic. I just have one question for the OP. Why did the Seahawks lose to the Steelers in the super bowl??
