Griffin took to Twitter to clear the air:
Griffin caught a lot of heat for the following comments made in his postgame press conference:
"“It takes 11 men,” Griffin said. “It doesn’t take one guy, and that’s proven. If you want to look at the good teams in this league and the great quarterbacks, the Peytons and the Aaron Rodgers, those guys don’t play well if their guys don’t play well. They don’t.“We need everybody. I need every one of those guys in that locker room, and I know they’re looking at me saying the same thing.”"
Although, the full context of Griffin’s comments show that he also took plenty of responsibility for the Redskins’ woes, the above excerpt spread across the sports landscape, with even RGIII’s head coach and best receiver upset at him over them.
It was wise for Griffin to try and clear the air on Monday. Unfortunately for him, with so many upset over the comments, it might be too late.
