Robert Griffin III is a warrior. He’s tough as a crate of military-grade bricks. Everyone can say everything they want about Shanahan and Dr. James Andrews and the Redskins’ future. But RG3 is the type of fearless leader you want on your team.
But the Seahawks-Redskins Wildcard Playoff on Sunday came down to one thing: while RG3′s knee was being treated on the sideline, Russell Wilson was sprinting past Marshawn Lynch to throw a block. By Week 18, RG3 was beat up, yet Wilson was still bouncing around the field like a kid.

Marshawn Lynch took a nasty punch to the groin and seconds later he fumbled against the Falcons. The groin punch was delivered Thomas DeCoud, and it wasn’t necessarily the cause of the fumble, but I’m sure it didn’t help. Either way, you never want to see something like that happen, to anyone.

Atlanta claims they are being disrespected, but that’s what happens when your QB has never won a playoff game. I’m kinda feeling a Seahawks ‘upset’, but I haven’t fully committed to my...

This was a must win game for the Atlanta Falcons, and a game played with house money for the Seahawks. Matt Ryan had one job: to silence his critics. While Russell Wilson’s sole job was to continue to elevate his game, and continue to show why he’s one of the most promising rookies in the game.
The game got rolling early for the Falcons, who held dominance over...

Today the NFL announced its all pro team, and although it was great to see some guys get the recognition they deserve some guys got completely disrespected. It was good to see Marshawn Lynch get first team honors. He is a big reason Seattle is still fighting in the playoffs and stand a chance to make a real run.
