Game Day Thread - Washington Football Team at Dallas Football Team

[YourWish is MyCommanders]

We played okay, but we have to be better on D in second half

[NoCalMike]

Defense has to be better to open the 3rd quarter. Retain that lead for WFT's next possession on offense.

 

Speaking of....is WFT 1 for 11 so far on coin flips? I can only think of 1 game this season they didn't start with the ball?

[Koolblue13]

Pretty solid half of football.

Don't take the FG, go for it McCarthy!

So they could burn our secondary again?

and if you look at the stats he's been pretty damn good

Yeah and the defense has been ranked 4th against the past.

 

Have we not learned that stats don’t tell the story?

[NoCalMike]

WFT has made some good 2nd half adjustments this season, hopefully Darby not covering anyone 1 on 1 will be one of them. 

[Stefanskins]

take a deep shot down the middle!!

[Warhead36]

Gonna be a shootout. Both Ds are bad.

[Dr. Do Itch Big]

We are a second half team. 

[Burgundy Yoda]

Entering the half with a lead? I'm pretty sure my turkey has been drugged. 

[NoCalMike]

Going into halftime with a lead is never a bad thing, I feel like those final 3 points by Dallas are self inflicted due to Del Rio giving Darby too much rope. 

[Est.1974]

Very conservative on D. 
 

must think their receivers have too much for us.

[GoDeep81]

Oh well, I've seen worse.

Literally. Plenty of times.

Summary of First Half.

 

Skins Ground Troops took down dozens of TANKS.

 

Second half coming up, and we're known for always playing even better in the 2nd half

[Dissident2]

Darby Island needs to get another occupant fast. Kid had a great game last week, but he can't handle Coop by himself. 

 

Both offenses are getting a lot out of the short stuff. D has got to step up in the second half and start getting some legitimate pressure on Dalton. Should be no excuse with those injuries. 

[Est.1974]

Can see Cooper getting 200+ yards here. 
Will be disappointed if we cant get Dalton to ground more.

I know with all the 1st rounders on the D-line you'd think they wouldn't have to blitz much, but I also wonder if the coaches think the LBers are too slow to send to the QB anyway?

Dallas are calling it Fantasy Island because they can get anything they want.

If you’re going to leave Darby on an island with Cooper you better damn well get a pass rush.  

I feel like the rush has made contact with the QB more often than we haven't. Are you not seeing that the same way as me? Even that last pass to cooper Dalton was hit

[Cooleyfan1993]

If we can keep it up in the 2nd half, I’ll be having a good thanksgiving, and i can celebrate a W with a cigar and end my evening drunk and happy

or maybe we aren't as good a judge as we think?

[Simmsy]

Ugh, halftime show? I hate Thanksgiving!

I guess I’m getting old, this music is 🤮
