Does Redskin playoff game come with asterisk?

[Seeker]

you don't get to use the "he was injured" excuse because griffin is always gonna be injured.
that is part of his game because he isn't smart enough to slide (and because your playing football in a sandlot).

 

[HawkAroundTheClock]

They took the exact opposite approach that Carroll and the hawks did. We literally forced Russ to be a quarterback FIRST, once he got a grip on that then we opened things up and allowed him to freelance.

No asterisk here.

Excellent point.

In battle, each side brings the best they got. In that time and place yesterday, our best was better. Media will go on about Griffin's knee b/c they only get to talk about him for a few more days before the playoffs roll on without him.

Heck no, I mean he was healthy enough to beat the Cowboys just the week prior. Our D just settled in and took charge, unlike what other teams could do. Although I do think it would have been a bit different had he been healthy.

It looks like RGIII could miss most or all of the 2013 if the rumors are true

That is a damned shame. Hope it doesn't turn out to be true. Great kid, great player. The NFL is better for him being part of it.

He looked almost like his old self the first 2 drives of the game for us.

Your defense realized he was hurt after the 2nd touchdown drive, then stacked the box and dared him to beat them with his arm. He couldn't.

Dallas played deep safeties all game and allowed Morris to run over them. In retrospect, in RGIIIs hobbled condition, they probably should have done what you did.

Did the Steelers win against the Bengals come with an asterisk in the 2005 playoffs?

Didn't think so.

Holy crap. I just heard he could be out an estimated 14-18 months. They're saying maybe the torn ACL and PCL story is premature, and maybe this is a 'worst case scenario,' but that is terrible if true.

 

[HawkGANG]

Just heard on the radio that he probably tore his ACL and PCL...thats truly sad hes a good dude.

Bingo.

I just saw where the MRI was inconclusive and he will travel to Florida to see Dr Andrews who is at the Notre Dam/Alabama game tomorrow . If its torn its the second time, that and another knee injury may make him a pocket passer

If you don't got depth in your team, you are not built as a championship team. That's all there is too it.

 

[Jack Straw]

You know, as a skins fan my inclination is to say yes but this is part of the game. It's all about how you build depth, it's all about how you adjust in game, it's all about making the right decision (pull Robert after first quarter?)

I'm really impressed with how Seattle gutted out the game after getting knocked on their ass in the first Quarter. I really thought after the 2nd TD that we were going to cruise to a 28-21 win, especially when we seem to rattle Russell with pressure - that was real surprising, especially after going back and watching 4 of his last games.

Good luck against Atlanta ...

I wonder if they are going to bring pressure similiar to the skins?? If so, I wonder how Pete will counter that. Screens? Moving the pocket?

 

[SouthSoundHawk]

Would there be an asterisk for any other game a QB gets hurt?


I think we all knew this would be brought up eventually...

If RG 3 was fully healthy we would of beat them 37-38.
