Why would you want to see a player on your team do something like that makes no sense, I want them all to come out and play like this game is a must win. I think this is a very important game because of all the people that will be watching the game and will get their last look at the skins. There will be grennbay, Carolina, Atlanta, and Ram fans watching this game and most of all the NFC fans watching. This is a perfect time for JC to show all the other players in the NFC that he is a QB to watch out for. Its a time for our O line to show that they are one of the best in the NFL. Its a time for Betts to show that Portis is not our only strong RB. Its a time that our D can make a strong showing which will be the last thing teams remember. Its a time that our special teams can show how good they really are. So to say this is not an important game is nonsense its the most important game we will play this season because its the last thing other teams will remeber about the Redskins and our players know that all will be watching.

I think you missed my point. This game better mean something to all of the players. What I would love to see is not so much a player not trying but a coaching staff that holds the players accountable for their commitment to the team even in a game that means nothing for that season.

So far I'd have to say that I have only seen guy's giving 100% the past couple of weeks.

Giving less than 100% will land you on the sidelines in street clothes (injured) Not going all out with the idea it's a meaningless game will get you hurt. We certainly don't want any injury the last game of the season.
