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

[Ridley Simon]

With WR Noah Brown likely out for the season, the Commanders claimed WR K.J. Osborn off waivers from the New England Patriots, per his agents Drew Rosenhaus and Robert Bailey.

Meh.

Good thing we didn’t need a WR, back when we were “winning”. LOL.

Huge eye roll to that.

I mean, looking on the bright side, it appears that he's, you know, ambulatory. So there's that.

It’s a shame. Things haven’t broken “right” for this team to actually make some noise.

Our new CB can’t get healthy
Our WR room is falling alart
Our RB room is decimated
Our OL room is limping along

It’s the NFL though. So I get it.

I’m very worried the playoffs won’t happen. Rams are breathing down their necks. And only GB is up front here.

I could see them missing it, at 9-8. I hope not. 10-7 *should* do it, as they beat the Rams on conf record ATM. So….

They play a Saints team with an interim coach and their third string QB, a Falcons team that has lost four straight and has seen their season go down the toilet and is facing calls to bench Cousins, the Cowboys who are officially done, and the Eagles. If they go 1-3 over that stretch they deserve to miss. Realistically 2-2 is their floor, and if they go 2-2 the Rams would likely have to go 4-0 since the Commies are 5-3 in conference and the Rams are 4-5.

They have a better chance at resting their starters their final weak of the season than they do missing the playoffs at this point but they still need to take care of business, and they should be fresher than most teams down the stretch given the timing of their Bye. Really no excuses here.

Not disagreeing with you. But this is OUR Washington NFL team. What you described is *exactly* what they’ve done for 25yrs! .

So, I am hardly confident.

Win against the Saints (who I didn’t know was missing Carr … that’s a break), and it’s easily within site.

But road games in the NFL are hard. Always. So we will see.

Brown dropped so many passes. I dont think him out is much of a big deal.
Running out of depth for all the team is becoming an issue.

I'd be slightly disappointed if they missed the playoffs but the rebuild is far ahead of schedule. Vegas said 6 wins for this team this year and we hit the over
