Seattle shut the Redskin offense down. Griffin isn't the only player on the TEAM!
Shanahan failed in his head coaching duties.
Why is it that all the former coaches and players on ESPN and FOX disagree with you? How many years did you coach or play in the NFL?
You’re on this thread to argue moot points. Find someone else. Only a foolish coach would risk the franchise quarterback who had been nursing knee injury for past 2 weeks, despite reassurances of said quarterback, but not the tending doctor, who was iffy. Who knew RG3 had more say so than the head coach....LOL.
The problems (plural) begin with the fact it wasnt true. Griffin was injured. He entered the game injured, still wearing a brace to protect against further injury from the ligament sprain he suffered four weeks earlier in Baltimore. Sunday morning, a USA Today story quoted Redskins team physician James Andrews saying he was a nervous wreck letting Griffin play so soon after the injury. When Griffin clearly aggravated the injury on a first-and-goal pass attempt in the first quarter Sunday, alarm bells should have been going off, and Griffins bravado should not have been enough to silence them. Not for the coach who traded three first-round picks and a second-round pick to get him and whos charged with the care and maintenance of his long-term health.
