Sorry to hear about Griffin but that is the danger when using a gameplan which has several plays designed for the QB to take the ball in a situation that increases the likelihood of him being tackled in possession. Kind of the point I was making before. If you're paying a guy $5m or so a year for ten years, you should be protecting that investment. Scramble and have the odd play but I think in the NFL you need to base your running game around the RB/FB. It's too dangerous.
I know RGIII's is more down to him already being injured but that injury came about on a crazy scramble on a lousy pitch (he twisted his knee as the grass went from under him a bit didn't he) because he's a competitor. Jim McMahon was one of the crazier ones and I've seen him go head first more than a couple of times, but not much more. Even he wasn't that crazy to test his block of wood against a Ronnie Lott.
As for this weekend. Not sure. Justin Smith is supposed to back for us. If he is fit enough to be effective that makes it a harder game to win. That said, I think we're 1-4 against the Packers in the play offs and they have beaten us at our place as well. Including playoff games we're 2-14 against them over the past sixteen years. Could be another belter.
The Catch 2 - Terrell Owens on YT to relive that epic wild card game.
So Jimmy G eh? Gutted we had to let him go but not really a choice was it? Although some pats fans would have you believe we should have kept him and let the G.O.A.T go. That lad is getting paid

Absolutely we should have, which is what BB wanted also.
