If you believe Shanahan, Griffin got hurt on the play right before the bad snap where he twisted his knee. And by looking at the replay, it's very possible that could have happened. That's the play where Griff was sacked by Irvin. If so, then the field played no role whatsoever in Griffin getting hurt. Unless of course you want to talk about the original injury he suffered at the end of the 1st quarter.
At any rate, the field definitely needs fixing. I'm in favor of putting in whatever the Patriots or Ravens use.
I know a Giants fan who said halfway through the season that the Redskins were not relevant.By season's end he had to eat those words...just a stupid thing to say.
i have a friend who is a eagles fan, and whenever we argue about our teams he always says the same thing. "It's the redskins" i'm like what does that mean? Last time I checked at our best we won 3 superbowls and when the eagles were good, they won 0, sooo it's the eagles.
I vaguely remember a thread on ES (during the bye week) where some folks were stating that the Eagle's QB Foles --a rookie with one game experience-- was going to come into FedEx and really light up the Skins secondary for 400+ yards and 4+ TDs!
Okay, maybe not 'stupid', but definitely sad. ...That bye week was a dismal time.

Fans who wanted to win pointless games when we were eliminated from the playoffs. If we had not won those two absolutely pointless games we would be in MUCH better shape for the future.
I also think its pretty dumb that fans not only don't get that bit think they're somehow a better fan because they're thrilled we eeked out a 4 point win in December to go 5-11 and lose precious spots in the draft. I mean, that's just ****ung epic stupidity.

The soldiers gave three cheers as they urged their tired horses north across the uneven hills. Some of the mounts, exhausted after a week of almost continual marching, began to lag behind; others, spurred on by their enthusiastic riders, began to edge past the regiment's commander. "Boys, hold your horses," Custer cautioned; "there are plenty of them down there for us all."

Griffin said that he was going to watch the game with his family and that he will never attend a Super Bowl if he needs a ticket to get in.
"Whooo Hoooo, we got McNabb we are going to the Bowl this YEAR!!"
heard that a few times here recently. Best thing about picking him up was the 6th rounder we got from the Vikings.
Difference in the two fields is, while Denver had the usual bare spot in the middle of the field, their field wasn't coming up in chunks. The roots were still in tact and what grass was left, never came up. Only alot of cleat marks on the field. They have the DESSO Grassmaster system.

At the Seattle playoff game, this idiot fan in front of me was screaming for the redskins to put in Cousins. that would be fine if he was yelling it bc RG3 was hurt, but he was yelling that Cousins was the superior QB and RG3 was 1 dimensional with a bad leg since he couldnt scramble. I looked at him and said "Not arguing that RG3 is struggling, but would'nt Cousins be 1 dimensional too' or did I miss some scrambles during the CLE game?
For the record I am not saying that Cousins could not do bootlegs or whatever, but calling RG3 1 dimensional because his knee was hurting, and then yelling for Cousins saying he was the superior QB was an idiotic statement.
