I saw this coming from a thousand miles away. A healthy team playing at home that has owned Washington for decades against a very depleted WFT. I was so disinterested I forgot to make a prediction in the prediction thread. I would have predicted 42-10 Dallas. But the massacre that occurred was even worse than what even I imagined.
I had predicted a record of anywhere from 6-11 to 8-9 before the year started. Well, the team has 6-11 directly in its sights. And to be perfectly honest, their record could easily have been 4-11 after yesterday's beatdown.
Let's not get it twisted now. The team has good talent minus a QB, WR, an OL, a LB or two, a CB, and a S. One major thing that they don't possess is luck in regards to key injuries. Every year it's wash, rinse, and repeat when it comes to injuries.
The depth of the team is significantly better, but multiple injuries, COVID, the lack of a QB, and playing on four days rest were too much to overcome culminating into what happened yesterday. I think the team is very close to being consistently good if they can find their long-term answer at QB and can avoid their annual injury epidemic.
