Local Takes: Redskins

Hogs Haven dissects the plot of Haslett to Mut 24 Coins repeatedly blitz the Cowboys and wonders what may be coming for Seattle:

We needed Jim Haslett and his defense to come together and help take us into the playoffs.

And the game plan that defensive coordinator Haslett developed was certainly impressive, but it was flawlessly executed and left Tony Romo and the Cowboys stunned. The Redskins were sending blitz after blitz trying to catch Romo before he could make play. Sometimes, they would cover an incoming blitz with similar appearances but at other times , they weren"t trying to hide the fact at all.

Some Local Notes Seahawks

Kenneth Arthur of Field Gulls discusses the Seahawks close of the season and looks ahead to Washington:

I really hope that Madden NFL 24 is going to ignore the Seahawks for the second time and go with the Redskins and their Most Outstanding Rookie of the YearRobert Griffin III, and their seven-straight wins to run over Seattle. Please do count those Seahawks out. This is precisely what this team is all about. You and I are Seattle supporters. We wereborn with chip on our shoulder. We aren"t handed anything. It wasn"t the case with Richard Sherman, or Wilson, or Doug Baldwin, or Brandon Browner. Was it a close game? A 90-yard drive to score the touchdown? Griffin is winning his place in the NFC East on national television? Phew!

The winner of this game will be facing either the 49ers or Falcons. If the Vikings upset the Packers and the winner of the Seahawks-Redskins match-up will meet the 49ers. If Green Bay takes care of things at home, the Seahawks-Redskins winner will go to Atlanta next week.
