De-activation of Davis based on special teams considerations, Shanahan says
"We put another guy up for special teams that we thought would give us the best chance to win," Shanahan said. "It’s always tough to deactivate somebody, especially when you know they’re good football players.

Mark Rypien predicts Redskins to the Super Bowl
"I think as the weeks go on, he gets stronger, he’s capable of doing the same things he did last year, the prediction is it’s gonna be a repeat of the ’87-’88 Super Bowl with the Redskins and Broncos are gonna be in it again. So, that’s my prediction and I think that RGIII each week will get stronger, and each week he gets stronger the team usually gets better."
Success on game-winning drive came as no surprise for Redskins

Dallas Cowboys: Navigating The Salary Cap - Over the Cap
The Cowboys have one major problem moving forward and that is the lack of cap relief the team can find by releasing players. While Romo fits the intended restructure category, the team has nobody in the intended release category. My estimates only have 8 players that would save Dallas more than $995,000 in cap room via release. These include starters Dez Bryant, Barry Church, and DeMarcus Ware. The following would be the releases:
