Seriously is it the soil there or what? The field has always been an issue.
Why not toss down field turf if the natural grass is that bad??
Not at all joking, it looked poor from an organization standpoint. First playoff game in 10 plus year and you want to show off Fed Ex. It was a joke and not good for an already gimpy QB.

The way some people talk you'd think RG3 is the first QB in NFL history to get hurt or something.
Next year I think we'll see the offense continue to evolve with him running less and operating more out of the pocket.
Still, he's gonna run when he has to, he just needs to continue to be smarter about getting down or out of bounds.
People said the same thing about Vick not lasting, 11 years later he's still here.
I don't have a problem with them running him within the offense. I have a problem with RGIII's inability to slide or simply run out of bounds. He did that shit again tonight. He needs to stop trying to prove his toughness and slide so he can go the next play down. (or series)
I wouldn't use Vick as an example. He lasted 11 years, but you also couldn't depend on him either. He missed 4 games in 2010, and 3 in 2011, and added that to the games he missed this year with injury.
Those games matter. Especially at the end of the season and you win/lose a conference by 1 or two games. Need our QB to remain healthy.

Point is he's lasted much longer than most thought he would early on, and he was a true running QB.
RG3 isn't going to run nearly as much as he did and is 10x the passer too.
He's going to be fine.

Im gonna add New Field as a need in our free agency/draft roster:
1. FS
2. CB
3. RT
4. 3rd Down RB
5. KR/PR
6. New Field
Helu should take care of number 4. BW comes back and Bernstine. Maybe an answer there. I like Crawford n Paul at pr/kr. RT and secondary. Fred Davis, Rak, and Carriker. Depth here n there. Im really curious about RG-3 injury. Its got my thoughts of a brite future dimmed just a bit.

I agree...the Football Field at FedEx field has been crappy since the stadium opened.
We need one of those Next Turf Fields

It's been an issue there since it opened.

Everyone is so happy to just call this a successful overachieving season and how much we accomplished with injuries. I for one am not satisfied, however this is innexscusable. Seattle WAS NOT the better team and You dont score 14 points early in the 1st quarter and not score again at home without calling it bad coaching. Morris had 60 yards on 11 rushes in the first half yet you go away from him. You clearly see your QB limping on 1 leg in the FIRST quarter yet mike thinks he'll be able to finish the game effective and keep him in.3rd and 10 and 3rd and 12 the defense cant get off the field. Sad,because in a playoff game when you are up 14 -0 at home and you have momentum from the crowd to keep running it down their throats and control the game, the coaches lay down and are satisfied with a 14-13 lead for most of the game which we all knew the inevitable. It never clicked in the coaches heads that this is the playoffs and losers go home. I am not satisfied or happy because this game should have been a win. This game to me was easier than Dallas, Bmore and NY Giants however we played down to Seattle, got conservative and gave the game away.
