Statistically Washington and Dallas have the easiest remaining schedules.

Philly has the hardest.

In terms of schedule strength your favorites ATM

Dallas (even with QB situation)

Washington (easy opposition other than Seahawks / Steelers)

Giants

Eagles (gauntlet rest of the way)​

Is DC ever gets a new stadium I hope its a dome and it’s like ARI first and LV now with a field that can be retracted outside so real grass can be grown.

Domed stadiums for football should be outlawed. The Vikings and Lions have been teams without personality (or much success) since they entered domes. Football without the elements is just so much more sterile and antiseptic.

Its not always dull. But I do like the outdoors.

I’d prefer a retractable roof option.....

Torn ACL for Burrow, sucks for the kid. This late in the year it will be hard for him to play in 2021.

Torn ACL, MCL, more for Burrow, sources say

Looks like more...

This is why you have to have somewhat of an OL before drafting your franchise QB.

That, and/or better coaching. They were setting rookie passing records with the number of times Burrow was slinging the ball around.

I'm actually pining for WFT to land in position to draft Penei Sewell. Watched some highlights. 330 lbs guy with feet like a TE, blocks in open space like a fulback, mauls DL like a road grater. Sticking him at LT for a decade would go a LONG way to keeping whoever is the QB healthy.

If we can't land Lawrence which we obviously won't, none of the other QBs excite me like adding Sewell does.

I think there's roughly a 0% change we are able to draft Sewell. It's pretty much a given now that 1-2-3 will be Jets followed by Jags/Bengals and the Jets and Jags will each take a QB and the Bengals will certainly take Sewell after the heat they're taking for not protecting Burrow. I think Sewell to Cinci is more of a lock than Lawrence to New York.

Well yeah, I guess I should have said "was pining"... this win hurt us badly!

They may have found something in Curl.

If Peyton and Brees are a fine Chardonnary and an excellent Pinot, then Brady is prison wine.

Meh. Peyton looked pretty bad his last year too. In fact he was even benched. He came back in the playoffs and led them to the SB victory.

Those duck passes were horrific.

So with the Sewell dreams fading away, it seems like Christian Darrisaw OT Virginia Tech is rising on the draft boards? Any VTech watchers can confirm?

 

[AlexBrovechkin8]

Still not terrible. Wonder if Atlanta goes QB or if they try to get help for that awful defense of theirs. Either way WFT should be set up for a QB if they hold at this spot since Cinci, LA, and Dallas won't be drafting one.

I hope we get another QB for next season, it would be very meh if we go into next year with Alex Smith and Kyle Allen. It’s almost certain it would be another 6-7 win year for us

Screw that. Build an offensive line that good but not great QB’s can thrive behind and go from there. If there is any organization that should understand that approach it should be the one formerly known as the Redskins...

seemed to be playing more from an upright on Sunday, seemed to help

It's not impossible this hit was more painful the next day than the knee mess. Credit to Burrow for not being broken on that play. It was a Sean Taylor style hit, the kind that just sounds different.
