The Unsung hero of 2012

[Pride]

Now that our 2012 season is over I'm taking a look back to find our unsung hero of this season. RG3? Played great all year outside of being injured? Kirk Cousins? Not imo.. Alfred Morris? He makes a great case for it.. Jim Haslet or Kyle Shanahan? Again good cases for each could be made.

But the unsung hero as I see isn't a person, squad or coach. It's heart. Before our bye week the only heart I saw on the field was Fletch, Jax, RG3 and Morris. Something during that bye week happened. Our team found what it needed to win....Heart. It's the one thing I feel comfortable giving 100% credit to, for us being NFC East Champs.

Championships are lost without it as are entire seasons. A 7 game winning streak to ensure a play off run would have been impossible without it. It's the single thing that has been lacking in this team as a whole for years. We saw heart after Sean Taylor died (RIP), CP pretty much willed us into the play offs and the teams we fielded those years "played their guts out". It's nice to see heart strap on a jersey and make the starting line up again. I give credit to the entire organization for finding it's heart and simply because of that reason have a lot of hope moving into next season.

I re-read the rule, this is my first topic so I hope I did this right, please let me know if I need to change anything.

Pierre Garcon - record with him speaks for itself...his attitude and passion seemed to rub off on everyone

John Mara?

John Mara?

F Mara. Not sure if he has a heart or a soul.

F Mara. Not sure if he has a heart or a soul.

But, butterfly effect, with our cap, we could have gotten a FA who would have destroyed our locker room!!!!

John Mara!!!

It was whatever they started putting in the water during the bye.

Well it certainly wasn't knee. Must have been heart. I'm hoping knee is the unsung hero in 2013.

Darrel Young. Always seems to deliver when called on whether its a blitz pick up or pass catch in the flats.

[JMUSkins]

Reed Doughty.... really stepped up his play towards the end.

[GoSkins561]

Mike Shanahan, dude lit a fire, and the players rolled with it, I'm excited for the youth and energy this team carries onto the field for many years to come.

Alfred morris
Santana Moss
Rob jackson
Kai forbath
Logan paulson
