Random Commanders Thoughts

[Boone]

Totally reasonable concern. intercostal rib injuries take a long time to heal.

I’m still not buying JD is back to normal yet. I’ll believe it when I see him torque his body to throw a pass like he did to Macaffrey.

There was a video of him throwing into the net the other day, I assume released by the commanders but I can’t find it. His mechanics looked perfect.

Thats not to say he’s fully healthy or won’t be affected during the game. But the ball had velocity and he was torquing his body.

This one?

 

[Voice_of_Reason]

Yep, that’s the one.

I need to keep an eye out for this.

You could place a reservation now and they'll set it up for you. I will say that you do need to pay for the 3 course menu which is fine as I don't eat there every day but I will just put that out there.

Set one up for December 3rd at 6:30.

RGIII and Alfred Morris were an incredible combo. Morris was never the same back when defenses didn't fear RGIII's scrambles though he was still a fine back for a couple of years. Should we be seeing that same dynamic with Daniels and Robinson/McNichols/Rodriguez or has the league caught up so well that fear of the scrambling QB doesn't open up lanes in the same way for the bruising one-cut running back?

Some defenses deal with it better than others, but I'd say that Lamar and Derrick Henry in Baltimore are proof that it's still a hard combination to deal with. But it only holds up if both of them are durable enough to last the season.

... and have a really good o line.

Our o line played above their heads until nagging injuries slowed some players down or took them off the field. Now, our o line is playing more closely to how I worried they would play though as someone posted earlier... still better than the turnstyles poor Sam Howell had to work with.

I assume Hopkins age is why we didn’t trade for him. But he doesn’t look bad for a conditional 5th to possibly 4th. Would easily be our #2.

 

[redskins1963]

I agree. I doubt we see him

imo,season is over with a loss sunday.why not play lattimore?

 

[Chris]

I didn’t realize that T. McLaurin has no more guaranteed money left on his contract. I would expect that an extension is in order and at or near the top of Peters’ to-do list.

 

[Renegade7]

I haven't recovered from last week's lose to Dallas.

I may never "recover".

Don't ask me which team I hate the most and then say that's what I'm supposed to say...you are supposed to see that and say the same thing without having to say it.

I want to admonish them so badly in the finale...scoreboard so heavy from all the points we burying them in it falls from the ceiling level thrashing.

And I still might be "recovered"...

Rivalry is Dead my ass...

Eeek. But he finished much better.

I think both are going to be very good. After that start he went 15/24 for 222 yards and 3 TDs.

And if Eberflus hadn’t Everflused, they might have had a shot at winning or tying the game.

Also, our #2 receiver was a roster cut by the Texans.

Peters has done an incredible job undoing YEARS of damage to this roster. But we are still a team which lacks talent everywhere.
