Next Day Thread: I Don't Know What Week It Is They All Blend Together (vs Tennessee)


KDawg

Recommended Posts

We begin with the story of an offensive line. A center, the anchor of our unit had a great day of practicing the art of bowling backwards with the football and, in an obvious effort to make sure Wentz was paying attention, would snap at unexpected times. When he wasn't doing that he and his fellow turnstile Andrew Norwell, were escorting Titans into the quarterback's lap like he was Santa Claus. Norwell had a rep that he stood tall with pride for. As high as he could stand. Showing his true height like a pea****... and then Simmons took him for a free ride to the local iHop before taking him to the garden store to get a good look at the new grass. I thought that was kind of him.

 

Carson Wentz played methodical football as well. On a goal line pass he lobbed the ball to the back of the end zone in an attempt to make the Titans think they had him where they wanted him. It was intercepted... out of bounds. Mission accomplished. Had them right where we wanted them with false confidence. Two plays later he really shocked them and taught them a major lesson when he threw the ball to a doubled receiver and got his pass intercepted. Hah. He got you guys good.

 

Oh, and Cole Holcomb had a bunch of tackles. Most of them were 5 yards down field (or it felt like it) but its the effort that counts.

 

Montez Sweat sacked the QB twice today, but in joining Wentz' mission statement for the day in lulling the Titans to sleep he committed a few penalties and he even tried to give Tennessee a first down by removing his headwear as an obvious show of respect for the team he was playing. What a guy.

 

Ron Rivera, never one to not chip in with his team's caring antics, threw the red challenge flag on the dirt for a call that was obviously not getting reversed. He knew that, though. He did it so the laundry people had something to do after the game as now the flag is soiled.

Ok so, I know sweat wasn’t penalized for removing his helmet, but I’m curious….how did that even become a penalty in the first place? What’s unsportsmanlike about taking your helmet off while running off the field? I just don’t understand that logic…..someone explain that to me

Wentz has his flaws but he was good enough to win today last interception aside. But man this OL is an abomination and Turner's playcalling and all around offensive scheme is terrible. Also Ron Rivera is a legitimate bad football coach.

It's viewed as taunting.It wasn't done as an adjustment it was done as a "look at me"

Cross the o-line off your list Jay Pees Alot just tweeted that Erick Flowers is expected to sign a fresh big money deal tomorrow.

 

While Flowers may have put on some serious tonnage he's been working on his stance.

 

 

Here's a picture of him taken last week...

This team 🤦‍♂️

 

There were some good things out there.  There were some times where it looked like a real NFL game.  The one-handed catch by Dyami was a professional catch.👍👍  It was so good to see BRob on the field. And, uh ... they had less penalties than last week?

No way Martin was better than Norwell.

 

He blew blocks, He flubbed like 4 snaps at least, some leading to fumbles and committed penalties.

 

Man tried to snap a lead pass to samuel

 

 

I though the snap to Samuel was a highlight of his day to be honest.

 

Keep in mind, Norwell was supposed to be a starter type for us this year. Therefore: Worse.

I think you have everything covered here from yet another disastrous Sunday where we find different ways to lose. Only thing I'll add is the lack of emotion from Ron on the sidelines.  I know he's never really been the firey type of coach but omg it looks like he was just going through the motions out there.  I'm starting to wonder if he hasn't checked out already.

He's had the same look for the last three seasons. That's nothing new.

@KDawg, curious to get your learned take on Wentz.  Have you seen enough to make a decision either way on Wentz as the long term QB for this team (if so, which way) or is the jury still out on him?

 

I've never really thought he was going to be the long term QB. I thought he had a chance to be, but he is who he is. Will play fantastic for stretches and horrendous for stretches. I thought he'd help us be competitive this year, but I didn't fully realize just how bad our offensive line was going to be. With the line like this I don't think Wentz has a chance and I'd think we should cut ties after the season to save cap space and in the next few weeks stop playing him altogether to preserve the second round pick.

 

But I don't blame him entirely. 

 

I'd like to see Howell.

What frustrates me most is Turner's offensive play design. Why can we never scheme guys across the middle of the field for easy completions? I watch a lot of Red Zone and I see easy completions for 7, 9, 13 yards etc. all the time. 

 

We never run crossing routes or slants or comeback routes, things like that that get guys open in space. Everything is into traffic. 

 

I get that we have OL issues but they aren't helped by incredibly slow play designs.

I knew--I KNEW--that the Commanders weren't going to score on that last drive. You could just feel it.

 

It's a disorganized mess from top to bottom. I figured I'd relax for a while in front of the TV this afternoon and get a few chuckles, and I wasn't disappointed. The Commanders are a terrible football team, but a passable comedy troupe.

Coaching.  This staff is inept and in my opinion gets the majority of the blame for the pathetic performance and 1-4 record.  
 

Daniel Jones and the Giants are 4-1 under a new staff with several injuries and no receivers anyone has ever heard of.  
 

Cowboys are 4-1 with a cooper rush at QB.  
 

Eagles have a talented roster but a new staff so it appears they have no problem getting things on the right track “over night”.  
 

This staff lead by Ron is outclassed every dam game. It’s the same thing going on in Carolina.  Some staffs are obviously piss poor and it shows.

This franchise is just done. Doesn't matter if they change the coach, QB or any of that other stuff. It's a city that stopped caring and an out of touch owner and a crappy crappy name/image. Should flush it all down the toilet and let an expansion team come in in 5-10 years.

I see a place on the horizon where Redskin fans start to actively root against this team because of it’s owner.

Yep. Its a dead franchise. The name change was the final nail in the coffin. Even with all the losing before, we still had the lore and allure of the Washington Redskins which still had value.

 

Nuke this franchise or move them to London or something. Let us start over fresh and new with a new owner, stadium, etc. in a few years.

You know it just occurred to me that it's not all bad news.

 

I mean, sure the team is against the ropes.

 

But being against the ropes also presents a very unique opportunity if we instead embrace the ropes...
