definite fall. You can clearly see his foot slip out from under him on the replay.

I see it this way. He did not want to get hit, but he slipped while diving for the first. In my view it is ok if a player protects himself as long as he gets to the marker.

It looked like he almost rolled his ankle on that but I bet b/c he's in such good shape he avoided injury. I would have been on crutches for 6 weeks.

hahaha... no comment
May #21 never be worn again by another Redskin but may every Redskin play like they are wearing #21 on their backs.

Clearly he slipped.
I winced when I saw that ankle twist the way it did. Glad he didn't hurt himself - or else we may not have gotten him.

I concur. It is clear that he slipped. Pinkston, on the other hand, is a (*something reserved for Smack Talk*).
After every game, every play & every highlight, I'll always remember #21. RIP Sean.
