Just a follow up to my thoughts on my post about Allen / Richardson. 
 

Quite similar. Wee bit patience me thinks.

Jets rookie that let the ball go before crossing the end zone :lol:. Madness.

Ridiculous. I understand it's a power move but make sure you're in the endzone first FFS.

Penalties at important moments look like being the downfall of the Dolphins again.

61 yard FG to as good as win it for The Bills.

Happy that Commanders won again in relative comfort. Beginning to believe play offs are possible

Saquon just did the most incredible thing Ive ever seen on an NFL field. A backwards hurdle over a defender almost in the same motion after spinning out of two tackles. Outrageous

Back to back losses to last second field goals 🤬

 

I was expecting us to get blown out in Buffalo...losing like that is almost worse

Woeful call from New York to eject Branch. Doesn’t come as a surprise though, especially against the Packers.

Dennis Allen out in NO. Unsurprising really. God knows how he made it through to this season.

 

Sense a rebuild of seismic proportions coming in NO given their cap situation.

Not so sure about that. The secondary is pretty weak at corner back.

Indeed could be a vital piece in the jigsaw.

AS a Washington fan we have not been used to this winning football😧so not getting hopes up too much

I think you guys could go all the way this season👍

Nice signing on the trade deadline also

Decent deadline for the steelers, another WR that we desperately needed plus another edge to compliment Watt and Highsmith while herbig recovers from injury

Yeah starting to believe a little. What's proving so good is we're winning in multiple ways. We had our wee run of blowing out teams but also grinding out wins too.

 

Dare I say it but I don't think we have any genuine rivals in the NFC (says more about the NFC than anything else), although you guys are dangerous, especially now you have potentially sorted out your corner issue.

 

Only thing stopping us is ourselves.

You could well be right. I think the Commanders are a bit of a sleeper. Are they playing beyond their capacity at the moment, or are they gradually improving week by week? I don't think anybody really knows.

Got the Eagles in a couple of weeks , I think that may tell us a lot.

Got shades of us last season. Maybe just a year too early although I’ve been mega impressed with the Commanders so far.

To be honest I think we got lucky with the 2 nd pick. Definitely outperforming Williams at the moment

Big game this week too, if the Commanders O Line can cope with the Steelers D and stop Wilson then it'd be a fair indicator of where they are at

Stunned this is the only mention of this 🤣

 

To have the physical ability, presence of mind and awareness to carry this off after the spin moves was sensational. The guy is a machine !!

Seen Micah Parsons say on his podcast the other day that the NFL is suffering as a result of the Giants stupidity. 
 

He’s gone to another level this year.

Not sure the NFL is suffering as long as players like Barkley are still playing. He's been box office for a while but now he's really becoming a complete weapon (in a good sense) !!

 

What was Parsons reasoning for the NFL suffering ? I've not heard the podcast.

He was meaning the giants refusal to pay Barkley has woken a beast I think. Sorry if I worded that wrongly. Will see if I can find the clip

Ah right got you, aye that makes sense, means the other teams are gonna be seeing him at a higher level. Brilliant for fans but it must be an absolute nightmare to try and cover him. Used to be "will he go left, right or over me" and now they have to add "or over me backwards......" as well

Indeed the season on the line next two games.

Could be division winners or just a very promising start to a longer term project.

Defense cost us. 

 

Really poor that side of the ball this year.

Don't think i've ever seen anyone only have a 5% chance of winning with 17 players yet to play, not even when i've forgot to update my team and half of it's on a bye week

 

oh and that 3 is Justin Tucker that's normally good for 10 plus points every game, not a single FG and missed an extra point

And I just noticed that the guy i'm playing still has 2 players listed that are on a bye week, he doesn't even need to update his team to still hammer me ffs

Good game so far, steelers just replied to bring it back to a 3 point game, both offences now look like they are in their groove, think this will come down to whose defence can get some stops

Too many injuries on the Commanders O line for this one

Mark was incredibly harsh but that's the NFL for you, scared shitless to make a decision.

Shame Tomlinson and Wilson got win as Washington had their chances but just couldn't get catch in last drive.

On to next game we go.

The line ref was so far behind he guessed it and ref just backed him up . How he could look at reply and reckon it was at the 42 yard line defies logic.It’s almost like watching  the SPFL 🤣🤣

Knew from the first drive we were going to be miles off it. Houston definitely come with a plan for our offense, coupled with Johnson having one of his seasonal shockers.

 

But a win is a win in this league!

Could do with a confirmation but read on the YouTube comments that Goff is 7-0 when he’s thrown 4 or more interceptions - that’s a stat and a half if true
