Immerse yourselves in the glory that is the SEAHAWKS EMPIRE. The light of the Hawks will shine bright and it will shine long. Unbelievers, accept your fate, bow down and look upon this empire in awe. The arrival of the SEAHAWKS EMPIRE has begun. Kneel before them or be disgraced.

Wow we know you like to emulate everythimg else like the 49ers. Afterall the team is built the exact same way but now you are even trying to tag onto the whole empire thing too? God get a grip already. Pete has one winning season in his entire head coaching career in the nfl and its is for a franchise that hasn’t won anything ever. Lets not get carried away just yet

You act like SF didn’t just come out of nowhere last year.

And the Seahawks are better built than SF, not emulating anything that SF does. SF is hype, Seattle is reality.

I figured he would throw a tantrum if Shanny had pulled him out; Griffin’s reaction to not playing in Cleveland gave hints at how selfish, greedy, arrogant, and foolish he truly is. Had Shanny decided to pull Griffin during the Seagull game, there would have been a true blowup. With the players so conned by his smoozing and superfluous “leadership” off the field, they would have been adversely affected on the field.

Griffin stayed on the field because he knows Kirk Cousins is far better than an average quarterback and having Cousins in the game with a half of ball to play would have given Cousins a chance to succeed. The longer Griffin stayed in, the less likely Cousins would become a darling (again) and a less of a chance of a quarterback controversy.

Griffin’s selfishness, pigheadedness, idiocy, and arrogance cost his team the game. The defense played well and was holding things together. The fact that Griffin was wretched from the mid point of the second quarter on was a glaring warning sign – this guy is holding his team back.

I know what I say is unpopular but if you read Griffin by watching his body language and how he performs running the two minute offense, you get an ENTIRELY different take on this guy than the media has given you. Add to this that he was charging Redskin fans for autographs before he was drafted, and you cannot claim him to be so wonderful. He’s a snow job of the first order.

Doubt me on his persona? Watch him in his last football game in college. He’s selfishness and self-centered conduct was like a red-flag.

The doctor’s comments last week were telling. He obviously saw this coming. A blind man could see Griffin was hurt through much of the game yesterday and now Shanahan has mortgaged next season because he’s short-sighted.

Young men are expected to make poor choices sometimes. Old men like Shanahan have no excuse. I hope the league takes a good look on how the Skins have been reporting this injury.

Some of you just shut your mouth and watch Atlanta whoop Seattle this week. Also Green Bay will win to.

Signed a true skins fan for 29 years.

I hope you’re trying to make a point and not trying to be funny. Because; if you’re trying to be funny then you’re a racist or insane. If you’re trying to make a point it’s well taken

I would totally understand taking the ball from RG3 when they were up 14-0 and handing it to Cousins and putting Rg3 on the bench. That might have made it a closer game or they can pull out a win.
Everybody watching the game from home, or in the stadium, your own team and the hawks team knows they have a cripple that wont come out of the game.

Its a losing decision to keep him and a slap in the face of the whole team not to try and win that game with the best QB that can field. That was not BOB.
Too many egos behind that decision.

On the other hand it made the Seahawks look better that what they are. They are a good team and I take nothing away from Russell Wilson. Still, they will get exposed. Watch.

Earlier this week there was a story that pitted the Team Dr. against the Coach in a previous game about letting RG come back into a game before being cleared. One obviously lied.

Any questions?

To learn something from this, Griffin and Shanahan should ask themselves one simple question: Did I do it for the good of myself? or did I do it for the good of the team?

What makes this situation more of head shaker is that the ‘Skins’ Defense was playing well and that backup QB Cousins had proved himself capable earlier in the season.

If I was the coach I would’ve yelled at him for such a stupid move.

I hope he recovers and remembers all this next year…Don’t be a hero; you’ve got a team next to you, use them, and run out of bounds when you can.

You don’t want too much of an early retirement

The comments he made to Romo were very telling. It showed me that RG3 is very aware about what “everyone is saying”.

It was already apparent he was hurting so much he couldn’t properly plant his foot, resulting in several awful throws. Any player will tell you they can still play, even if they’re in effing traction, so for Shanahan to hide behind that is bush league. If the doctor says there’s a risk to continue, you pull him, period. Cousins is a quite capable backup. Pure selfishness on Shanahan’s part to keep Robert in the game. I hope he heals 100% and plays ELSEWHERE because clearly Washington doesn’t deserve him.

And to anyone saying Wilson won’t last long either, think about their body types and play styles once more. RGIII seems to compare to Vick. He has a lanky body, was staring down receivers ALL night, and running is at least 50% of his game. Wilson, at least partially due to his height, has a very compact body with a low center of gravity. He also looks to pass first every time. Even when he gets outside of the pocket, his eyes are down the field until he crosses the line of scrimmage. Wilson will be a star for a long time in this league.
