PFfft. JJ didn't even have all his seats in. Skins won't get a SB till weather is disregarded. The field isn't the issue.

Its better to look like shit then for them to add turf that does not have a root base and tears up in sections. FedEx has always been that way because they want to avoid the problems with a newly soded field.

Ok, well then can Synder hire someone from Augusta National to teach them how to grow grass?! How is it that other teams in cold weather locations have grass in December but the Skins don't?

You guys need to notice the field in Green Bay this weekend. I guarantee it will look better than Fed-X field and its freezing up there.

The injury might be a blessing in disguise, read what Griffin explain about what he learned from the injury.

But Griffin said he thinks the injury has helped his game.

“It did show me things I can do to make the game easier for myself and easier on my body,” he said. “Ironically I’ve done a better job protecting myself since the injury, sliding to get down and getting all the yards I can. Sometimes things have to happen for you to really grasp that and it’s shown me a lot.

I'll say this, Snyder should be staying out of the football part of the redskins...but if there is anything someone above might need to step in on it's the health of RG3. They have to be smarter than that.

Their field looked worse the FedEx. Not sure I get the need to have a pretty field after all it is football,

I basically stopped right there.

The rest is just Andrews not wanting his name tied to this if god forbid he got hurt again. Shanahan probably shouldn't have brought his name into it from the start by saying he cleared him, but what else was he gonna say, that RG3 said he was ok and wanted to go back in so we let him? That would have been a bigger mess.

IMO and I'll say it again IMO sounds like a Dr. that just wants some Air time (famous/popular/recognition).

Yeah its a non story to me. I wouldnt take him being concerned as a sign that rg3 is in bad shape. He is suppose to worry for the worst...thats his job. And rg3 probably shouldn't have come back in but that was weeks ago. He's almost 100 percent now and that's what matters

We see players all the time get hurt go to the sidelines for a play or two and go back out to play without a Dr's note. Not sure what they expect a coach to do in the last few minutes of a game your needing to win when your main player is standing there ready to go back into the game.
