I'm wondering of we might try to take advantage of DE Red Bryant who has dealt with a lingering foot injury all year. Their other DE is a platoon of 2 very undersized guys who get good jumps at home. The edges look kinda good right now.
Turns out Seattle's rush defense allows 4.5 ypc which is 23rd in the league (10th worst). We run for an extra yard per carry at home (5.7 to 4.7), easily tops in the league.
They have 36 sacks - 21 at home and 15 on the road.
We have more sacks (36) than Seattle's D and ours are evenly split home and away (16 to 16).

Which shortened the season for real NFL players. Sure scabs played three games and I love "the replacements", but the season was shortened three real games. They counted, but they weren't any more real than Seattle's "win" over Green Bay. |

I'm all for winning the next 4 games and I'd love for the NFC Championship game to be at home ..
when it comes time for the playoffs, I just want the Redskins to win
I don't care what the other teams do and I'm VERY sure the Redskins players and coaches are NOT looking ahead either ... 
I will add that the Vikings have possibly the greatest RB EVER and the Packers history in the 1st round recently has NOT been good ...
GO VIKES

Only for the Redskins. Every other team had regular players crossing the picket lines. |

In 1987 we were 11-4. A game was missed. Therefore, both seasons were shortened by strikes. |

| I don't get why Faulk said Morris is more valuable just based on the fact of Griffinn being somewhat limited. Did he not see the plays RGIII made with his legs last week against Dallas? RGIII is still an effective runner and still has to be accounted for in the run game or he will still toast you. |

We should not be too surprised that we're still not getting much respect BUT ...
We have won the last 7
We do have RG3 AND Alfred Morris
The game is on our field (grass) and that is to our advantage - the Sqwarks like their field turf ...
The Sqwarks record on the road is not great this season
I understand the media does not think we're 'worthy' but I really think they're both NOT giving our guys enough credit + giving too much credit to the Seattle defense
I look for a typical Redskin, down to the wire, win - I'd love to be comfortably ahead but that does not seem to happen a lot with these guys  |
