Giant holes at DB and Edge.
If JD can keep it up, and Harris maintains this reputational upswing by improving facilities and amenities, DC will be a big-time destination for key players in short order. Stack that up with Peters drafting well and there's no reason we can't keep making big improvements year-to-year.
No reason to peacock your faith.
Humility is so crucial. Everything happening to him could so easily go straight to his head and puff up his ego to instantly-annoying levels. Thanking God and his O-Line first and foremost after the game? Smiling and laughing on the field with his teammates even at the toughest moments? The respect and devotion he has for his mother? Being the first to congratulate teammates when they're up, and pumping them up when they're down? The zero evidence we've seen so far of any egotistical or obnoxious behavior, womanizing, ...
Look, I'm not a believer myself. Just didn't grown up with it, never had an epiphanous moment of that kind. But I've always had a profound respect for faith because of the good things I've seen come from it. So many awful things have been done in the name of God, but lots of truly great things, too. Faith grounded in humility is often the exact type of compass that helps shape wonderful and successful people.
JD thus far has shown so much class and an extremely rare work ethic. And for someone as soft-spoken as he is to already have so many obvious leadership skills and charisma is similarly rare. If he credits God for any of that, let him. Griffin was this type of electrifying early on, too. But we also knew for sure that he was 100% douche -- RGMe through and through -- the first time someone stuck a mic in his face.
We won the lottery twice on JD being a great player AND seemingly a world-class man. I could criticize organized religion for days, but it's often a real guiding force for excellence and character.
The NFL game is already slow for him. Nothing knocks him off his game.
He's in total control out there, for sure. When they zoom in on him between plays, I'm always impressed by what I see. He gets rattled and discombobulated from time to time, but most of the time he's composed, relaxed, in charge, and clearly having fun.
Let's hope the Harris regime can establish new luck with franchise talent, cuz our track record with the last few has been 100% tragic.
