Making the game a snoozefest, though.

That's easier to do when the qb can't complete a pass.

To me, without question, Justin Smith is key to the SF Defense. Now that they've had some time for Ricki (I believe) to get up to speed it may not be as big of a deal though... Because SF is in our division I'm rooting against them during the regular season and when they play Seattle, but as a fan of the NFC West, I'll be rooting for them if we lose.

Seattle travels to DC and I think it's going to be close. Our team has a lot of speed, but grass is bound to slow us down a little.

Seattle 24
Redskins 23

Rooting for the Skins today. I'm becoming a big fan of RGIII, and Morris as well. Also, I have a longstanding dislike of Carroll.

I wish the Redskins would have put Cousins in right after RGIII re-injured his knee.

Sorry to see RG3's knee bend like that - I hope he'll be OK.

But DELIGHTED my Seahawks are moving on to the next round!

I like Pete Carroll more all the time. He won me over when he was coaching USC and had his QB take a knee rather than run up the score with a few seconds before halftime (the score was already ridiculous) against my alma mater. The guy has a ton of enthusiasm, and he has class, too.

I think RG3 is still the rookie of the year IMHO, but Wilson is a close second, and Morris in third. Andrew Luck was good but through a ton of picks. I think he is riding on a lot of hype and will probably win it over three players who are more deserving.

What about Doug Martin?

4.6 average, 1454 yards rushing, 49 catches, 470 yds receiving. 150 Yards less rushing than Morris, but 40 more catches!

I could reel off a number of examples of Carroll being quite classless throughout his head coaching career. No need to go chapter and verse, though.

I normally never agree with Bears fans as a rule, but I will make an exception here. I can't stand Pete Carroll.

Shame about RGIII getting re-injured, hopefully it's nothing that'll have serious career implications.

Other than that, meh, dull wildcard weekend.

Like packing up and leaving at USC to go to Seattle before the hammer got dropped on him for paying players?

Shanahan's an idiot jeopardizing RG3's career like that. Especially when Cousins proved to be a great back up.

What's Ponder got to do with this. He didn't even play. Oh Yeah right, Webb. Who's the Vikes 3rd string? Can he throw a pass?
