BGO Blind Pig: Washington vs. Bears

[Boone]

The guys review the Ugly, the Bad, and eventually the Good in the Commanders road battle and near-win in Philadelphia, throw shade at Chase Young, praise Howell and Bienemy, and make some bold predictions about our chances against Chicago on Thursday night.

When you’re down and troubled

And you need a helping hand

And nothing, woah, nothing is going right

Close your eyes and think of …being a New York Giants fan

1-3, outscored by 76 points, by 64 in two home games, with a $160m QB, and two games vs Miami & Buffalo on deck before their Homecoming Game.

As bad as Forbes played, his getting beat for a TD on a 2nd & 4 on the Washington 28 with 1:43 remaining and 1 timeout left was maybe the best mistake we could have hoped for.

Very true on both counts

Kudos, Bob. I posted that before you made the point. 👊🏼

Also, if Howell doesn’t throw the next to last pass low and behind Samuels the game is over.

Also a really good point, Chris.

No clue if he did that on purpose or was actually trying to complete it, but that was close to being the ball game right there.

This team is 3-1 if our defense played like the hype train they appear to still be riding on was real. I can't remember who said "Chase Young might just be another Orakpo" a few weeks ago but my goodness I'm not so sure he'll even live up to that mediocrity. I'm with John, after seeing his ass jog behind the play, put him on the bench, I haven't seen anything different in his skill set so far this year, it's blast as quick as you can if you get pushed outside give up. As far as Chicago goes, this is a game we should win, that scares me as historically this is a game where the team poo's their pants but I just can't fathom us losing to this Bears team. As far as they "go for two" "kick the extra point" debate, I slightly lean towards go for 2 only because our defense seems to think last years success means something this year.
