I love this young team.

Chase Young is my favorite player. I’m sure there are many others here that feel the same way. Not just because of what he does each play but how he leads. Love the comparison to Ray Lewis by Del Rio. Like Ray, Chase makes everyone else better.

I remember when the Giants drafted LT. Even though they were low in the standings until 1984 and the Redskins were on top, #56 always made these games difficult for Washington. He managed to make plays even though he was playing alongside some average talents. And even with top OL we had to watch the guy on every play.

That's how I see Young developing now. In the second half of 3 of the past 4 games he has accounted for a turnover and he has a number of key TFL's as well. Washington doesn't yet have the pieces in place especially at linebacker and safety but Young has beaten the pants off OL he has faced, good ones and average ones alike. Young's play against the 49ers and Trent Williams was especially pleasing to see.

Whatever happens next week with a questionable quarterback situation against an 11-5 team that is mostly healthy and has committed future cap dollars to trying to win in 2020, Washington already has made outstanding progress in a challenged year.

More than doubling the win total from 2019 in a year the coach is recovering from cancer and we are integrating so many younger players into the lineup each week makes this the start of something solid here as we move forward.

What I really like seeing is the 4-2 division record and the fact the team has come back from halftime deficits in a number of games to win or make games close. The players are not giving up but are playing for 60 minutes.

You really couldn't say that about this team since 2015.
 
I thought this team was going to win three games. I thought six would have been a good year. Seven is outstanding. Getting a playoff spot is just gravy. :)
 
I wonder if Mel Kiper et al still think we should have passed on Chase Young and taken Tua at #2 😱😱😱😱
 
If we could have gotten Burrow, I'd have rather had him. But Young is definitely a special player. He may even be a future HOFer.
