IF Washington beats Atlanta (not counting chickens before they‘ve hatched)…

Washington at 7-5 will be .5 games behind the withering on the vine NYG heading into the first of two consecutive games against them.

In divisional games: W 1-2 / NYG 0-2

In conference games: W 4-4 / NYG 3-4

Bit of news at the end.

 

[Boone]

Normally I'd like that - but you're replacing an injured punt returner with a guy who is barely back from injury himself.

Thanks god for the internet and Directv (for this season)

 

[Kel Varnsen]

I’m going to the game tomorrow. Am in town for Thanksgiving and someone gave us suite tickets. Hopefully I won’t have to worry about getting mystery liquid leaking on me from the pipes above.

Some injury news on Chase Young



I get the feeling that Rivera is going to be 'overly cautious' with Young, and if he has any reason to hold him out... he will, until Chase proves he can not only be a part of this defense, but be better than what we have on the field.

And Logan Thomas




On a side note.. does it seem like "illness" has been reported SO much more this season than others? I can't remember seeing it listed as frequently as I have this year.

Honestly I'm on the fence on weather Id like to see Chase come back this year at this point of the season. The fan in me has been foaming at the mouth with the possibility of him playing the last couple weeks but is it worth the risk of him further injuring his knee or injuring something else ? The defense is really clicking and while I think he could add something to it, playing him the last 4 games of the regular season just to get him back on the field might not be the best decision long term

 

[Kel Varnsen]

I’m guessing this has to do with the rain. I don’t think they want him going unless conditions are 100% perfect. He may be sick as well, but I think the cautiousness is more about what conditions don’t favor his knee.

 

[Primus Porcus]

This could get messy

 

[Chris]

Yeah, no thanks.

 

[Boone]

Too bad. Seems like a bad day to do something like the ST tribute.

 

[Neophyte]

But a great day for our ground game.
