I never said anything about tanking…essentially I’m saying after so many years of emotional abuse it’s hard to get excited, maybe if they win vs Houston I’ll buy my first class ticket on the banwagon instead of way back in economy next to the toilet

No you said there’s no long term answer for the most important position on the field. 

 

Let me know when we get the next Josh Allen okay…

[JCB]

My fave part of this game was hearing Terry caught on mic in the first half after one of his many big catches: “Don’t put a safety on me!”

Didn't you hear? Dan is selling the team 

[FLSkinz83]

Jamin Davis led the team in tackles.  Good to see.   Bostic being out there the past 3 weeks hasn't killed us.

I don’t disagree with any of this.  Just saying good luck getting that recipe to translate to scoreboard success very often in 2022.

I agree, which is why I wanted them to get a real QB and throw the ball 40 times a game in the off-season.

 

But that's not what we have.  So, shrug, we'll have to play 1950's football and hope it works.

 

At least @TradeTheBeal! will be happy with all the running.  And that's something, right?

You can’t run it 50 times for a buck fifty and win very often.

49 for a buck fifty-two, buddy.  Get it right.  And 211 moxie yards in the passing game.  Somewhere, a football narrator with a deep, gravelly voice, smiles from the eternal gridiron as the Washington Commanders banged their way down the throats of their NFC East rivals 49 times and played opportunistic defense, ripping the ball away at just the right time.  DA-da-da-da-da-DA  [insert tympanies, triangles, and flutes]  And Taylor Heinecke showed why he is the phi beta kappa of NFL quarterbacks by smartly inducing one of the dumbest roughing the passer penalties ever captured on film.

It worked great tonight.  If you take tonight’s formula and production, run it out 100 times, it probably works out this well like 10 or 15 of the times.

 

Thems not good odds.

 

Enjoy the win, I’m all for it.  Just saying, its not like the running game was better than “meh”.  It just happened to be timely.

 

You can’t run it 50 times for a buck fifty and win very often.

The 82 and 83 teams did it with Riggo grinding out 3 yards a run. Theisman was not Joe Montana but did enough behind a strong positive run game and strong defense to take us to 2 Bowls.
 

Sure the NFL is different today and not saying we are gonna win it all but it needs to be our identity to win ball games right now.

HAHAHAHA this is perfection.

Next week on the road…

Bostic being out there is ok as long as he's not expected to really ... do anything.

That was literally 40 years ago. I get what you're saying, and I think you're correct that the way for us to win with TH is to run as much as possible, but it's not a recipe for long term success in the modern NFL.

We just knocked the snot out of the Eagles in the modern NFL tonight.

 

[petey hodge]

what is it about playing Pennsylvania-based teams at night?  We sorta dont lose there.... amiright?

[madden lot]

Love that we got the cheap TD to end the game.

[skinsfan93]

Watching from the stands tonight it looked like Wentz was on the sideline genuinely rooting on the team and even Taylor. 
 

Too bad he will be doing that the rest of the season and earning $28 million for it.

It felt like Montez Sweat in both Dallas on Thanksgiving night and Pittsburgh when we stole their candy.

I love this. Not sure I've ever seen "tympanies" in written form before.

Didn't you say running the ball 40 years ago is not the same as in today's NFL? 

[Peregrine]

Man, great performance again from two of the most maligned in Washignton, TH and JDR just outplayed/outcoached them.    Couple huge fumbles forced by the D at clutch spots and the team is one play away from having a 5 game winning streak.

He said that you can't get long term success out of tonight's gameplan these days. Which is right. This is one game out of 17. We and many other teams would be doing it every week if it worked for an entire season.

Seriously…I consider myself to have a pretty good handle on snark but, holy hell, that was amazing.

I said it's not a recipe for long term success in the modern NFL and you responded by pointing to one game.
