Not being an ass, but did we lose yesterday because we didn't have a Higgins type WR?
If the Commanders have BRob, they might have won yesterday. Since Ekeler isn't that much of a traditional rushing threat (and the Ravens have a great front four), that allowed the Ravens to really focus on the pass game which made our offense a lot more predictable.

However, bigger picture, the Commanders will not be actually competitive* until they have a defense. They have some pieces in place, but there are consistent holes.

*In the playoffs not just competing for a playoff spot.

We know the D can’t make the big stops against the better teams. Too many holes to plug (with one CB), but we can try to outscore teams.

Yesterday we just couldn’t keep pace on offense. BRob would have helped, but not much.

Ravens were always going to take away the run and make us beat them in the air and we have like one legit threat there as well all know…

Very close game. I thought the flag on Ravens 3rd and long was terrible. That turned that drive from punt to Ravens TD.

Good fight. This was always a tough match-up and they dearly missed BRob here but still put up a great fight even though the defense got badly out-matched at times here.

On to the next one.

Agreed. There were some calls that I did not agree with …. PI’s. On BSJ. That said, he was getting torched all day.

Regardless, the measure of a good team, is what happens next. The NFL’s version of UMass is coming into town. Skins need to take care of business and do what “good teams” do…. Win and win convincingly.

That would show a lot

Hope this guy gets his. He drilled that poor guy in the 21 jersey, pretty badly. Not cool, like at all.
