Whatever we think of Mike Shanahan keeping Griffin out there on a bum leg against Seattle, the aftermath of the game included a lot of expert analysis on how the Redskins offense had to change in the future to avoid the ultimate loss of the qb to injury.
While I agree with some of that analysis (Griffin sliding and going out of bounds to protect his body), I find it ironic a week later that the same talking heads are awash with praise for the 49ers and how Kaepernick was used in the victory over Green Bay.
Kaepernick had zone read runs and designed scrambles that took him up the gut in the middle of the field and he didn't slide or run to the sidelines. He took shots aa running back would take shoulder to shoulder.
Where are all the critics saying now that this is a short-term solution that won't be effective and Harbaugh is risking his qb unnecessarily?
I suppose if Griffin had finished the Seattle game and the Redskins had won 21-O or by some similar score the story would be that much different..........
