TH might die

Well, i was expecting the worst but hoping for the best, so this outcome right now is just whatever. Dallas is a better team. Not ashamed to admit it. 
 

just gotta hope we beat Philly twice and the giants again. 

Sure, but this isn’t just “they’re better” territory, this team is ****ting their pants. Looking like the little brother of the division and justifying the fact that nobody on the Cowboys, Giants, or Eagles collective rosters take them seriously even when they’re on a win streak. It’s a joke even beyond what could be “expected” so far imo. This team feels like it will never rise to the occasion and prove someone wrong. 

[NoVaSkins21]

They just need to get this offense into 3rd and long and then tee off

[tomwvr]

First down incomplete 

second down short run

3rd down don’t get a first down 

punt

[heyholetsgogrant]

Stop handing it off to Gibson 

[skinsmarydu]

I have extra Falcons/Pukes hate for Dan Quinn. 

[DefinitelyMaybe]

The commentators say Parsons is “unblockable” but declined to mention that on one of his biggest plays it was only Gibson there to block him

 

Nice one turner

I agree, Chase has a motor issue and just doesn't have that hunger to get a sack like Parsons has. We really blew it with that pick considering what else we could have had instead. 

 

It is what it is.  A lot of us, including me, wanted him.  He was consensus #2 overall pick.  Sometimes the draftniks get it wrong.

[Voice_of_Reason]

We have 15 total yards.

Why does it matter?  So we can get obliterated first round? 

So, we can break the Snyder curse.  Yeah, it will probably be a quick exit again but for this team; it will be historic under the Snyder era. 

[Rhazaghul]

The OL is done.  They are not protecting at all at this point.  Dallas is just coming after Taylor.

Am I right in remembering that we never actually got combine event measurables for him? 

That is correct. Partly Covid and partly I believe (iirc) Young did not work out for teams.  He did make some videos, and obviously they were designed to show off his strengths. Like he can jump well. 

[GoDeep81]

Yea, they done rattled Heini.. 

[Fred Jones]

Again, some other team drafts a player that is better than what this front office can do.

 

It is always been about the ability to acquire enough talent, in addition to a franchise QB

[tomwvr]

These receivers are not getttng open for Washington

Yeah. Heinike kinda sucks man. 

[AJ*]

Dallas is simply winning the line of scrimmage battle handily. The pocket is collapsing immediately.

[srtman04]

The offense cant do anything today.....TH is cracking under pressure

[Koolblue13]

Oh let me just drop back here and take a look see what's happening down the field and see if I like anything.

 

Pass the ****ing ball. 3 step drop release

Chase is not as physically gifted as he was touted to be. While I think there is an element of him not working hard enough, watching him it’s obvious to me he’s not nearly as explosive as we thought.  Once in a blue moon is he able to beat an NFL caliber lineman to the outside.  He has good straightaway speed but acceleration is not elite. He’s also not as strong as we hoped.  I’ve seen him pushed off his feet way too often and his bull rushes are meh. That also speaks to his balance. 
 

I don’t buy the potential thing with Chase.  His ceiling is a good d-lineman, probably a journeyman who will play for a few teams before his career is over.

Agreed.

 

It's funny: I never wanted Chase.  You simply do not draft DL that early.  EVER.  They just cannot make the impact that equals the draft slot.  They can't change a game with regularity.  

IMHO, it should be a QB at that spot or trade down.  And there is almost always a trade down opportunity at that spot.  

 

I KNEW one of three things would happen with Chase: 1. He'd be a relative bust  (that looks like it's happening)  2. He'd get a big injury that would further limit his true explosiveness (check that box) 3. He'd end up just being a "solid guy".  

 

Blowing that #2 pick just cannot happen.  Granted, nearly every team in the league wanted him, but there were many, many red flags coming out of college. 

 

Now, Chase has to work on rehab all offseason instead of actually working on his game to take a major leap going forward.  I wouldn't expect much from him next year either, and the pressure is going to just build and build.  Parsons adds A LOT of extra pressure too.  Ball's in Chases court now.
