OT: New Owner! New Name? New Season? New Everything!!! — Oh, and New Thread. All things Washington NFL FootBall (beat it, Dan-Bag!!)

[AlexModvechkin8]

This line is not inspiring confidence. They have been horrendous.

 

[g00n]

Offense so bad they've scored -2 points

 

[usiel]

shocker: Oline is ass

I can't like this enough so true.

 

[John Price]

Well at least Cleveland is going to yank Watson and let him rest.

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

Good to see backups on D

 

[Roric]

If this team could put up more than 10 points a half they’d be a real problem

O line will have sam running for his life all season

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

EB is making this call. Hope it doesn’t bite him in the ass.

 

[Jags]

Help me out, football nerds. What happened to handing off to a running back with momentum? You know, the RB starts to run and you hand him the ball in stride.

It feels like most of the time these days they hand it to a RB that's standing still, the RB stutter-steps in place for couple seconds, picks his lane, tries to go, and gets nothing.

We've been doing it A LOT the last couple years, but I"m noticing it more everywhere. What's the thought process there? Is it a misdirect? Are they trying to trick someone?

New drinking game: Every time Chic says "burgundy and gold", drink! Did he forget the name of the team? Did the new owners tell him not to say "Commanders" too often, since they are going to change it?

Chase is hurt? Dude is glass

Beginning to think that he might be a bust...

 

[John Price]

Howell picked.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Well, the off-season was fun till we actually had to watch them play

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

When the o-line is struggling run the ball. You don’t make it to the NFL as an O-lineman without being an average run blocker, at least. Like being a good skater in the NHL.

 

[John Price]

I got to say Howell is showing poise in the pocket and making good decisions. Conversion on 4th down and 3 keeps the drive alive.

TD Washington!

 

[tycoonheart]

Well, the off-season was fun till we actually had to watch them play

I mean, we still have a dinosaur of a coach in Peter Lavi... Err... I mean Ron Rivera. So I don't expect anything different than the last couple of years.

And a TD.

 

[g00n]

Yes! The over still has a chance!

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Left hand up

It’s how offenses run these days. Having a running back run downhill for handoff is an obvious sign of running the ball. Play action options are limited. But if you do the handoffs they do now the play action options are numerous. RPO.

 

[Eirikrautha]

We play much better against second string defenses...

 

[Roric]

Dotson all f***in day

 

[Jacoby4HOF66]

We play much better against second string defenses...

I’ll take it. Howell and offense needs quality reps. They got a lot of them on that drive.

 

[usiel]

Nice catch by Dotson on a rainy night. Nice Turner 4th down catch.

 

[Eirikrautha]

I’ll take it. Howell and offense needs quality reps. They got a lot of them on that drive.

I must admit, he looked pretty poised and didn't make any big mistakes. That's encouraging.

 

[Cush]

Milne

 

[usiel]

Milne

Feeling the heat.

 

[Ovechkins Wodka]

Other than the pick 6 that got called back lol
