Official Game Thread - Week 7 - Commanders @ Cowboys

It will absolutely 100% be a tall task - but it's not impossible. For example, last week, Baker was without his top 3 wrs and found a way to put up points and win. I think the way we lost to Chi - JD5 will be locked in!
 
Findlay tried to say that this cancels out us missing Terry. How? It might not even cancel out us missing Brown at this point. Cowboys fans wanted to trade Diggs so bad... Lol
Maybe Dak, Aubrey, Lamb, and Ferguson will get carried away at an after-practice karaoke session, fall off the stage, and get concussed. Then I would feel better about this one...
 
With all of these injuries they may as well just play the backups and see what happens. Ertz is listed as questionable too.

JP is an idiot. Not only has Diggs not been good since his All Pro year but he is also not a fit in Eberfluss’s scheme. He is better in man and Eberfluss is one of those DCs who loves playing zone and won’t change what he does.
 
Listening to a Cowboys media show a couple of days ago. They said that from the portion they saw, Dallas was practicing a lot of man to man, press coverage this week which is what their fans and media have been calling for. Their zone defense has been even worse than ours with massive blown coverages..

They probably also think that we are too beat up at the skill positions to threaten them. This also allows them to add their hard hitting safety to the box more to help against the run. He thrives better playing downhill but their coach has mostly kept him in coverage.

Our young bucks and newly signed receivers have to not only win the match up but make the tough contested catches. I saw that we released Martin. I still feel like Bill should be able to run on them. Even if they stack the box, that just means one miss and it's daylight. He has to secure the rock. Cowboys fans feel like some of their poor tackling is due to guys rying to punch the ball out without wrapping up so I know that they will be trying to attack the ball on Bill with his b2b fumbles.

Them playing man more also opens up lanes for Jayden to run, especially on 3rd down. I hope they remove the brace but it almost feels like this medical staff will have him wear it the rest of the season. I'm honestly not feeling them right now
 
And now Deebo has been downgraded to OUT

Who can run? Some of those around here might have to try out at WR soon.

I'm out, I have 1 leg, but I could get a faster scooter if necessary.
 
I did pick us to win for some reason but I just had to change that one.

I also changed a few others so I probably just totally screwed up my picks.
 
This Commanders team reminds me more and more of the 2025 Orioles - high expectations torpedoed by a ridiculous number of injuries, poor offseason decisions, and questionable coaching.
 
No Wrs. Cowboys 43. Commanders 24.

If so, next week will be all about the season is over from fans, etc. They will be written off by the national media. the Giants considering the new upstart team in the division. Washington predicted to come in last let alone have a shot at the playoffs.

But....

At some point Terry, Deebo will be back. Can they surprise and beat some good teams and go on a run? Maybe. So I don't think the season will be over but it will feel like it is for the time being. My gut now is they go 9-8 and just miss the playoffs.
 
Down our top 3WRs and even Ertz is gimpy. Worst case, if Ertz plays, I wouldn't mind seeing some double or triple TE sets with Sinnot involved. Something about that kid I am starting to trust. He's destroying people at blocking now and is faster than Ertz. I think that he's ready to prove himself and I see that dog in him.

I a 2nd note, this medical staff is a serious question mark to me. We didn't put Noah or Terry on IR when they've clearly had serious injuries. DQ a couple of weeks ago saying that the Samuels injury isn't long term and acts like he will get better every week. Ever since he's said that, Deebo has gotten drastically worse. I don't even know how to full heal that thing without almost being completely off of it for awhile. Even the Jayden injury, it seems like no one is on the same page. It's annoying for real
