Official Game Thread - Week 17 - Falcons @ Commanders - SNF

[IdahoFan]

Looked around on Falcons message board. Fans are fairly confident in winning this game. Suggesting that Penix is on par with JD and the Falcons have the better defense and running game. I’d give them the edge on running game, not buying Penix is close to JD level yet.

That win over the Giants really has them believing.

That win over the Giants really has them believing.

They will be reminded the Giants are the worst team in the NFL

I can see why Falcons fans would feel good about their team and chances. I can see why Washington fans might feel the same way. Me? I was raised by Joe Gibbs. If we were facing the Giants I'd find a way to worry.

From the inimitable David Aldridge-

“Come Sunday night, though, there is a chance to write a new chapter for a franchise that is on the verge of, once again, living up to the history of those who had made this team the most popular in the city, when so many people came together on Sundays — not in church pews but in their basements and in bars and in other secular places of burgundy and gold worship, and believed.”

Hopefully, watching Carolina upset Tampa Bay, putting us in, and rooting for Philly to lose, ( because, you know, you cant really root for the Cowboys to win ), so we still have a chance to rip the Eagles hearts out, next week.

Sit back, relax, get your favorite beverage and snack food, and watch (hopefully) Tampa and Philly lose.

Who says they don't kick the shit out of the ball? But your mistaken if you don't think it is an opportunity on a national stage to show they're legit by controlling their own destiny and winning out right and not by some flukey things happening.(Bears,last week's Eagles etc)

Booooring

 

[RWJ]

DQ has spoken!

When out and about today (northern VA) - lots of folks wearing Commanders gear. And was cool to have random interactions with other fans while having a relevant team in Dec! Been a looooooong time!

I just went to my local convenience store where everyone knows me in my Redskins gear.
I'm usually always in my gear. Everyone looked at me like I had 18 heads.

So you’re telling me it’s a Code Red Game???

 

[Canadian Hog]

It has been the single most enjoyable season in the past 32 years.

Finish the job.

 

[skinsfan4128]

Not a Code Red, but a let's show everyone we're a force to be reckoned with.

HTTR!

 

[SkinsFTW]

Can't wait for the game to start, already got a good nap in during the 1pm snorefest of games.

The Packers just lost.

So if Washington wins tonight, they clinch a playoff spot and move into the sixth seed.
