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

[RedRocking]

ESPN analytics has us at 92% to make the playoffs now.

So we got that going for us, which is nice.

He hadn’t released the ball at that point, so no that was one of his 3 poorly thrown gimme TDs. And the “you can do better” argument is stupid, I mean John Beck could do better than me too, does that mean he didn’t deserve criticism? When you have a guy that wide open make sure it’s a catch first and foremost. Err farther if the coverage is tight.

The "you can do better" is more on the "everybody sucks" theme of all your posts. When all you do is criticize, it renders the vast majority of it moot. Complaining that the QB overthrew or underthrew the shots and almost cost us the game when the receiver should have caught the second and could have caught the third -- which also should have been called PI because the defender threw his arm in early and never looked for the ball -- is tiresome.

Find something good. Something. About anybody. Post it. Just try it once. It'll make you feel good.

If the Seahawks beat Green Bay tonight we’ll move into sixth.

This is sketch. Also that bogus 2nd roughing the passer on Fowler.

Between the clock running out at the end of the third and nobody blowing the whistle and the bullshit that gave NO that last play, the Superdome clock operator needs to be fired and the team fined by the league. And the entire officiating crew needs to be docked or demoted and kicked in the nuts.

That is integrity of the game stuff that the league cannot let slide.

(And both roughing calls were BS -- especially the second. That's the crap that makes old-heads like me go off about the old days when men were men, a smoke was a smoke, and QBs were actually considered to be football players, not crystal figurines that needed to be protected like the King's daughter's virginity.)

I loved the game because it made my heart stop twice - once on the first Daniels TD pass and again on the 2 point conversion - and we won.

That to me is a fun Sunday even though there is still plenty of work to do.

Dan Campbell trying to get the dumbest decision out of the way before the playoffs start?

 

[usiel]

Felt like the pittsburgh game but the commanders came out on top.

 

[John Price]

missed most of the second half, on vacation in Los Angeles. check my app and see the score. happy

also last two saints games at the super dome I've been on vacation. first is the Alex Smith game where they got blown out on MNf? I was in Paris Disneyland. I'm at six flags magic mountain today

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Looking like 2 more games vs the Eagles if we get in.

 

[Cush]

Seattle crapping the bed so far

 

[DWGie26]

Ironically, NO. They are only 5-4 in one score games. 4-1 otherwise.

This should NOT have been a one score game. Was a poorly played game pretty much across the board. Really really poor 2nd half. Like abysmal.

BUT, they won. That’s all that matters.

9-5 and and in a decent spot ATM.

Interesting. It always seems close when it shouldn’t be. I guess we won more by ore than 7 (or 8) than i thought. Those games shouldn’t have been as close as they were. We won one on a Hail Mary. Should have tied a second and that could have gone our way but an L.

But we are 9-5. Overachieved. Will be another large turnover this summer (in a good way). I trust.

[CapitalsCupReality]

Saved their betting site partners some $….

Imagine losing the actual game because of that horseshit.

 

[usiel]

Still sketchy and should be reviewable for self-dumbshit owns.

 

[ynotcaps]

The running game was a big fail today. Saints were giving up 5 YPC coming into today. Overall we averaged 3.9 -- but that's because JD had 11 for 66. Our RBs had 24 carries for 71 yards.

Hopefully this is just an indicator that Badass is the straw that stirs the running game drink, and he's better by next week. If not, I'd prefer we play Mariotta because the QB is going to be ground beef.

(I also hope we get an officiating crew that doesn't show up to the stadium in 3.5-foot high bus and wearing funny wigs and enormous red shoes.)

SAMMY TIME

[ynotcaps]

Congrats, Seattle -- you're living the true Sam Howell Experience! Drink it in, babies!!!

 

[EroCaps]

Howell somehow looked worse than last year. Thanks for the pick, dummies.

Also worth noting that Peters passed on Cooper, Lassiter, DeJean, and Payton Wilson to take Johnny Newton. Which looks bad at the moment.
