OT: 2024 Washington Commanders thread: change we can believe in!

[ynotcaps]

Caleb is a freaking magician in terms of escaping pressure. But unless he can become a more consistently accurate passer, that's only going to get him so far. I like Jayden more. (Shocker...)

HUGE sack!

 

[Beef Invictus]

I think that's a half sack for five or so players

 

[tycoonheart]

Is the Chicago oline that bad or is our dline playing better

 

[Capsman]

Do we try to score?

the backup rookie LT, Amegadjie, stinks. He was a OT prospect in this draft that got mocked to us a bunch in the 2nd and 3rd round.

 

[RedRocking]

If the Bears have to keep playing that rookie LT, Caleb might have some more problems.

Let’s march out there, CATCH footballs and go up 16-0. HTTR!

Watching that bomb again, Mclauren really doesn’t seem to have that burst after catching the ball a lot of receivers do. I have a hard time believing guys like Chase or Jefferson don’t take that in . He has almost 4 yards clearance when he caught that ball. If he couldn’t outrun the defender then cut in, change your angle.

 

[John Price]

stop with the f***ing penalties

 

[Capsman]

Once again self-destructive. Curious who was at fault. Did Badasz snap without the right snap command?

TM had to slow up to catch that ball. If the ball was laid out in front of him he runs in untouched. That wasn't on TM, it was a good throw that wasn't perfect.

I think that was on Badasz who snapped it not hearing that Daniels was changing the play.

Felt like he had time to re-accelerate or change his angle.

 

[John Price]

I'm really impressed by the defense. especially when they are banged up and playing backups.

bears had to run the ball to win and haven't really run much.

Caleb has been harassed all day

 

[ynotcaps]

Sloppy game. Wonder how much of that is not working with the starter all week. I imagine it'd be less of a problem for a group that's mostly worked together for a couple seasons or more.

Yeah. Shutting down CAR is nice. Shutting down CHI so far is a different deal.

Even though Caleb's been able to escape a couple of times, he's definitely affecting him. He's not hyper-accurate to start with, but the pressure's making him less so.

 

[kicksavedave]

So many stupid penalties.

 

[ynotcaps]

Cannot believe the O Line. Good lord, they need coaching on the fundamentals.

 

[Capsman]

No F’ing way. Are there any NFL IEP programs for o- linemen? I think the ADA laws should apply here.

 

[kicksavedave]

Lucas walking off is not good. Down to Trent Scott.

 

[ynotcaps]

Austin Seibert, MVK.

While they are blocking well, they have little football IQ or composure. Cosmi absolutely 100% screwed us over and for no good reason. Its not like it was even a delayed illegal downfield penalty where he thought the ball was out, he did it IMMEDIATELY. That was a “you are a moron” play.

 

[DWGie26]

‘Williams can scramble. But part of his problem is either he is having a hard time seeing downfield or we are locking down the coverage.

Coverage has been much better lately, last few games.

 

[Capsman]

Yeah Scott is going to be a problem.

They should be embarrassed by that run.

 

[kicksavedave]

Ugh. Those missed red zone opportunities are going to haunt them.

I don’t know man. The way Romo described it the play was an RPO based on whether a certain defender blitzed or not. How the OL on the other side of the guy the decision is keyed off of is supposed to know which one it is I have no idea. But Cosmi’s first step or two seemed like run blocking ones.

Sure it is unfortunate it would have been for a TD but that seems like a complicated play to try to block and not mistakenly get too far downfield.
