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

[kicksavedave]

Raiders gonna' Raider: two days after firing coach but keeping GM... they've fired GM.

Man, can you imagine being a fan of such a dysfunctional franchise...

They probably fired the GM when they saw Charger fans dancing a jig in the streets over the news that they were keeping Telesco. Went "ooops".

Thailand trips, relationships and Jayden Daniels: How Kliff Kingsbury got his swagger back in D.C.

The Commanders' first-year offensive coordinator has rediscovered the joy of playcalling and building relationships.

"I don't know if I've ever had a more enjoyable season than I have this year," Kingsbury said.

Me neither, Kliff, me neither. The last time I felt this kind of joy about a Redskins season was 1991. For those that weren't around, it was absolute magic from start to finish. Just like this season.

Also:

DURING HIS WEEKLY session with reporters on Jan. 2, Kingsbury was asked if he was ready to field all the head coaching questions that were bound to come his way. Kingsbury, who was seated in a chair against the wall, smiled as he started to stand.

"It would take a lot to leave this kid," he said.

Anyone know which "kid" he's referring to?

"I didn't get into this to be a head coach again," Kingsbury told ESPN last month. "It's not about money. It never has been about money. So, that won't move me at all. It's just I want to do the best job we can here for those guys and then kind of go from there."

I love this man!

He’s set financially, so his next move should be about being more prepared for his next HC job, and getting into a decent situation with a new team….promising QB, good cap situation, ownership, GM, etc…kinda like what’s he’s got here already…

He’s saying all the things you want to hear so far.

Just got my ticket to the playoff game. Haven't been to a football game in years, hopefully I know which net is the Football Team's and which one is the Lightning's!

Marshon Lattimore listed as a full participant in today’s practice. He could be the difference between winning and losing on Sunday.

Back to Tyreek Hill. Apparently he's patched things up with the Finns. Plus there is this.

Hill, who broke his wrist during a scrimmage against the Washington Commanders in training camp, battled through the injury and remained determined to play the 2024 season despite doctors telling him that the injury could affect his entire career, according to Rosenhaus.

Doctors at the time recommended season-ending wrist surgery, which Rosenhaus confirmed that Hill declined.

“The doctors all said: ‘It’s going to be painful. It could impact your entire career. If you don’t get it done now, you may not be able to fix it all the way,’” Rosenhaus said. “Tyreek said: ‘Hey, to heck with it. I’m a team guy, I’m going for it.’”

Kinda an idiot.

On your day you get the news Lattimore will match up vs you all game lol

I wonder about Garrett Wilson.

Next year will be his 4th, so he’s eligible for an extension this summer. Maybe staying in NY doesn’t make sense for either party?

Sub 4.4 guy, great catch radius (less of a body catcher than Terry).

I know Higgins would only cost cap space, but it’s shaping up to be a colossal overpay (for an oft injured guy) based on the market.

I seem to remember something about Wilson not being happy in NY either, said he would leave if Rodgers is the QB again next season.

Yes we need OL and D but what I would give to get Ashton Jeanty. BRob is not it. You draft Jeanty, trade for Wilson opposite terry and this team's offense would be insane. Like the lions this year if not better. Especially if LMC and sinnott develop

isnt his actual name Michael?

whatever ...

-----------------

B Rob is a decent, mostly down hill, fall forward kind of back but

his pass pro is below average

he needs an ekeler type to compliment him but then you tip play calling

No indication yet that he was drinking, but he was apparently being super reckless. Jamin Davis could have easily killed someone also.

Life is short, hug your kids.
