Rex Tomb Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Why is Micah Parsons still in the game? He gets injured on some dumb meaningless play and that defense is really in trouble. Titans QB out there making Heinicke look like Brett Farve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rex Tomb Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 I would pull them now... #70 on the o-line looks gimpy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kleese Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 The Cowboys game went “well” for us I’d say. They won and they had some guys get banged up. Assuming Eagles win Sunday (dangerous to assume anything in NFL) then I have a very hard time seeing the Cowboys putting much emphasis on our week 18 game. They certainly won’t push any of their gimpy players and I imagine they will sit others and/or pull them early. You can bet the game on Mybookie right now and we are favored by 4.5 already. Now, the players that DO play for Dallas will certainly play hard, but it is doubtful they will be showing their best 11 on each side of the ball. Obviously if Saints pull the upset, then everything changes. Although Philly would still have to lose AGAIN the next week to Giants in order for it to matter. I continue to HATE the Vegas angle on our game. It’s just sitting there at -2; begging the general public to take Washington. Scary. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skinsfan66 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 When has Washington won a meaningful game this late in the year? And with the way Wentz and the OL has played this year? One game at a time, need to get by the Browns first. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Koolblue13 Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 The cowboys game was good. They got beat up pretty bad. I haven't seen an update on their center, but he got rolled on hard. Had Dak and other other linemen limping through it. They aren't scary right now and poised for another first round loss. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WilberMarshall Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 Not to pile on Turner but I watched again a 4th and short play where a team lined players in the backfield behind the QB and even motioned a player tighter to the line and both players pushed the QB to help convert the sneak. I have a lot to complain about the play calling and basic things like things make me cringe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without the assumption though, the conversation is pretty pointless, at least until Sunday night. His point is to assume that we need to beat a cowboys team that’s resting their players so that this thread isn’t just empty until Sunday. Not sure what’s so complicated to comprehend about that……..

kleese Posted December 30, 2022 Author Share Posted December 30, 2022 Well, my final prediction is a sad one: I don’t think the Cowboys game will matter. As a gambler I can’t get past the obvious signs. Browns have to be the play. And it’s going to be hard for them to cover and NOT win (unless we win by exactly one point). I think Watson will have his best game so far and the game will stay uncomfortably close late into 4th. I’ll say he gets his first “moment” and Browns win 23-20. I am also predicting wins from the Lions and Bears, which would eliminate us before week 18– although I do think Vikings have a better chance to win that majority seem to think. I think they are a good bet at +3.5. Good news is that public sometimes wins too- I am hoping the “Joe Blow” bets come though on our game and we get it done. But following the system, Browns are the play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t recall telling anyone not to have the conversation? Converse about your assumptions to your little heart’s content. I simply made an observation, to no one in particular I might add. Am I allowed to do that, maybe add a different perspective to the conversation? I’ll play and “assume” that the team has plenty of issues regarding protecting Mr. Wentz from being decapitated by Mr. Garrett as a means of maintaining any playoff scenario whatsoever. Does that meet w your approval sir? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlwaysBeRedskins2Me Posted December 30, 2022 Share Posted December 30, 2022 It's not likely that all 3 lose and we win on Sunday. It would be phenomenal though. However, I could absolutely see 2 of the 3 lose and we win. That would be a huge success for us. Eliminates two of them. Then we dont even necessarily have to beat Dallas. We would just need one other game to go our way in week 18. It would be Washington gets in with win vs Dallas OR a loss by so and so. Two different ways for us to get in, in the last week. That's my realistic goal. Two of the three teams 0.5 back of us lose and we win. Looking pretty good at that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well…..ok, but how big of a game it felt or didn’t feel to any of us is irrelevant, the fact is it WAS a meaningful game 100% because it meant we won the division. There’s no “technically” about it just because it didn’t feel like a big game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
