The Houston Texans, Green Bay Packers, Baltimore Ravens and Seattle Seahawks are in.
The Washington Redskins fell to the Seattle Seahawks 24-14 Sunday in a disappointing loss for a team on the rise. Despite the loss, the team clearly has a solid foundation for the future. After dominating the first quarter and storming to a 14-0 lead, Robert Griffin III hurt and already injured and braced knee. He continued, a move criticized by some, but did not finish the game. Seattle nearly evened the score by halftime at 14-13. Neither team could muster a score in the third quarter, but the Seahawks pushed through with another 11 points in the fourth quarter, while shutting down the Redskins for the win.

That's my only reason. I'm a Colt's fan." Chris Glover: "I'm not a big fan of either, but personally, right now, especially the way the Redskins are playing, I'd have to say Redskins. Dallas has been hurting a little bit lately and the Redskins have been putting it together and playing really well. From what I've seen of them I think they'll be able to pull it out in the end."
