This situation is something that I'm not upset about. I thought we should have played Cousins in 2nd half, but I am not upset at Shanny for not making the move. Shanny did what he believed was right and I'm sticking with him. I love coaches who does what he/she believes is right and not give in to outsiders' wishes.

Nice post . Funny how people are ripping the coach and RG111 for playing hurt , when many ripped Cutler for not playing hurt ( referring to media ) . I wish we had put KC in , but RG111 is our General .

Pull him or don't pull him; once the decision had to be made the game was lost anyway. Seattle is a better team to start with; there's no way we're beating them without a healthy RGIII.

Everyone can keep blowing smoke all they want. I didn't see a team that was better then the Skins. 14-13 with 8 minutes left & a qb that completed 5 passes in the 2nd half.

Yes we lost but after the 1st quarter Griffin wasn't even close to what he was against Dallas and we all know he wasn't much in that game.

I came away far more impressed with our team than the hype of Seattle.

Are you kidding me? At one point late in the game we had 143 yards of offense. They fumbled on the one yard line. Wilson missed a couple of routine TD passes. We were outplayed by a better team. Even with RG3 healthy is there any way to say we win the game? Does he play defense too? Is anyone around here capable of just giving Seattle credit? They're a damn good football team.

I agree. There were two plays on the same drive where Wilson missed wide open receivers and they had to settle for field goals. They fumbled the ball on the one yard line with a running back who usually can get you 6 down there. We allowed them to convert key third downs and committed penalties at the worst times. Redskins allowed 224 yards on the ground at 6.1 YPC. How many games do you think you will win with that kind of defense? Only way the Skins win and definitively the only way the Skins would win in ATL is with a healthy RG3. Great season. Skins lost to a better team.

I agree that he should have pulled RG3 at halftime. But I also think RG3 has earned the right to stay in the game and that's why we wasn't pulled. He's earned MS's trust. RG3 was hurting the team and should have pulled himself, but we know that wasn't going to happen. I think they're both to blame.

Not many if any. They gave us a taste of our own medicine when they're offense was on the field.

Griffin doesn't play defense but if he completes a few passes those drives never take place.

I guess Griffins inadequate play had nothing to do with the 143 yard output?

How many yards did we put up before the knee injury? 129 in the 1st & after that he was done.

A injury and a bad coaching decision did far more damage than the Seattle D or O.

Dan Graziano does some good work for ESPN, and he hit another home run with this blog.

Tony K does not agree....
Lots of differing opinions

I'm just not the type that thinks that when we lose a game and are clearly outplayed, that it was all our doing. We gave up 200+ on the ground. We just didn't get the job done.

EARTHQUAKE2689 · 01-07-2013, 08:44 AM

Great season, I just hated seeing them go out like that. I hate what if losses. "What if Griff was 100%? Looking foward to free agency and the draft. It is just the idea that we don't play another meaningful game until September is the part I always hate.

mredskins · 01-07-2013, 08:44 AM

Great game by Reed Doughty, I have been a hater of him for sometime but he was lights out last night. Chasing down Wilson and all.

I hate the Seahawks! I am so glad they got ATL now they have to fly across America again. Go Flacons!!!!!

We lost and that is all that matters. However, it's hard not to give up big yards when a non injured QB has a 80 yard and 54 yard drive and after the injury..... drives of 13, 3, 23, 4, 17 and -19.
