As the clock struck triple zeroes and the sidelines cleared for post-game congratulatories for the favored Seattle Seahawks at their home in Qwest Field, the season ended prematurely like many before it for the Washington Redskins. The scoreboard read 35-14, a score that was largely expected by many commentators and analysts, who saw the 10-6 Seahawks, a team with the sixth best scoring defense in the league, as the easy favorite over a Redskins team that just barely squeaked into the Wild Card conversation with a Week 17 win over a Cowboys team that had already punched their ticket to the Divisional Round of the playoffs.
