OT: Washington Football Team 2020 Season Thread 12: Tank Commanders Edition

[AlexBrovechkin8]

So the Ron Rivera honeymoon phase lasted all of five games. It was fun while it lasted!

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Giants are up on Dallas and Miami is up on SF. Solid scores if they hold to help the tank. Think they’d be second to last behind the Jets if the games finished as they are right now.

Edit: forgot Atlanta is 0-5. How are they so bad with all of that talent on offense? Can’t imagine Quinn lasts much longer.

He dosn't have much to work with but 4 straight blowouts do him no favors

We are expected to be at least competitive in some of these games

defense is terrible

Jimmy G is terrible.

 

[Beef Invictus]

I just watched down to the 2 minute warning in the 4th. That was enough of that.

Allen sucks, he's functionally no better than Haskins. Smith is inspirational, but watching him is terrifying for his health and also he sucks just as badly as the other two.

We have probably already completely ruined Haskins in the last 1.5 years. He sucks. But if there is any hope at all of reclaiming him, however slim, then the offensive line in front of him has to never play like they just did for Allen and Smith. Holy shit.

That game sucked. Football Team sucks. Football Team will always suck. The end result of this sucking will be drafting another QB high and then completely ruining them too. Repeat, forever.

The elephant in the room, to be honest, is that Chase Young has not really been the dominant force we hoped for. I know it’s early but I’m not seeing a guy doing much disrupting, save for a couple exceptions. Did he have any QB pressures today?

 

[Bananas]

Anything we can do to lose 15 games is what we should be doing.

 

[John Price]

The only light is that these 5 games have been against good teams. Ravens, Rams, and Browns look pretty good. Cardinals are 3-2 too.

The next 6 opponents stink. The Giants in particular are winless (although could win today)

I think Rivera said his goal is to go 4-2 in those games. If they do that they could be right back in the mix.

He has been chipped and double teamed consistently since week 1.

Send them to the gulag!

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Dak just dislocated his ankle. Field turf sucks.

 

[marcel snapshot]

Oh man - Dak’s ankle snapped in a gruesome way. I had ankle replacement surgery earlier this year, and seeing that is brutal. Just feel awful for Prescott

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

He’s in the last year of his contract too.

 

[marcel snapshot]

A

Can't win in the NFL with a bad OL. Just can't.

A hallmark of the Snyder era is the organization’s treatment of the OL as an afterthought, that can be patched together with castaways and whatevers. It’s the exact opposite of what successful organizations do

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Brutal to see Dak like that. He's one of the great dudes in the league and he had the courage to come out recently discussing his battles with depression and anxiety after he lost his brother earlier this year. I hope he gets better and makes a full recovery.

And if I'm Alex Smith, I am retiring tomorrow. He did the impossible and came back from one of the worst injuries in sports history -- nothing more to prove to himself or anyone else. You did it; now go have a normal life with your wife and kids and get far away from this train wreck of an organization.

 

[Corby78]

Dak having surgery tonight. If I’m the skins I’m still going after him in the offseason.

Imagine Dalton rallying the Cowboys to the playoffs, and then Jones casting Dak aside, only for the WFT to scoop him up.

Just imagine it....

 

[Beef Invictus]

Yeah. he's opening up opportunities for others.

 

[Beef Invictus]

This is why I hated on Allen. Oh boy, you complete your passes. Good for you. They're all checkdown quality. He's a slightly more mobile John Beck.

No one thought that Allen or Alex Smith is the future. We will need to get that in the offseason in the draft or free agency. But if Allen or Alex Smith need to play to keep the team together while we lose instead of grumbling and losing, so be it.

There are a ton of people out there who were adamant that Allen would be a clear upgrade.
