Which is why I'm glad we just kicked the FG. Unfortunately we should still be up about 20 right now. 

Still disagree, but I concede it’ll be looking pretty good if they get 3 on this drive.

I know making a play in space is tough, but it’s 35 year old Ertz. Announcers want to keep complimenting Walker, but this year especially, he really looks like a clear weak spot compared to the stars around him.

Or go for it and fail and it's 17-14 in about 5 minutes. 

That sure seems like the doomsday scenario to think that an offense that has barely moved the ball all game is going to drive 96 yards, get the ball back, and drive all the way down the field again all within 5 minutes.

I think it's pretty obvious I'm referring to 5 game minutes from right now. 🙄

He’s the classic example of a player who feels like he should be better than he is.

I feel like this offense needs to get the run better established, and use more than just Jacobs to do it....been too much an afterthought in this game.

 

Kraft is an absolute monster

It wasn’t obvious to me at all or I wouldn’t have made the post.

[HarryDoyle]

Tucker "Mr, Reliable" Kraft.

[adambr2]

Savion looks like he’ll be one of the classic “gadget” guys.

[Fear The Chorizo]

I like that playcall, lol...he doesn't slip and he might score

[OldSchoolSnapper]

Someone must have told Matt that the stupid pitch plays to WRs needed to go but showed him another way it might work.

Yeah, I didn't like them passing on first down on that last goal to go drive.

[adambr2]

I love that when the Commanders finally got something going and we needed to answer, we did so immediately. That’s something we wouldn’t have seen in previous seasons.

[OldSchoolSnapper]

That should do it. Slammed the door shut promptly. 

[HarryDoyle]

KRAFT! That should do it.

[HarveysWBs]

What Kraft is doing to this defense reminds me of what it looked like to watch tight ends decimate the McCarthy and Rodgers era Packer defenses over, and over, and over again without any appreciable defensive adjustments.

It is nice to be on this side of the beating stick for once.

He just really hasn't improved from his rookie year

[wOOgiE22]

That was a huge drive!  Now let Parsons eat now that Washington will be in passing territory. 

[BrewerFan]

Just so average or even bad on offense and they go down and score when they need it. 

I love this two TE package with Jacobs... and this offense is going to be so much better with Tom and Banks back. 

[adambr2]

Kicking it into the endzone when touchbacks start at the 35 twice in a game when you almost never used to do it when touchbacks came out to the 25 is… interesting.

Walker has been great this year. He missed a tackle in space, but vs the run and rushing the passer, he's been very good. 

[BrewerFan]

And right on cue, Quay comes screaming up the middle...

[Fear The Chorizo]

getting on the outside with those young WR's on runs as they headed to the redzone was huge - seemed like Wash was constantly throwing traffic in the backfield on Jacobs runs between the tackles and having that speed instantly getting around it was huge.

Say what you will about Quay, but he is doing a solid job of eliminating huge running plays for Daniels...instant pressure on that blitz from him, too.

[HarryDoyle]

And our corners are the weak link on this team.

Think they may have gotten a little spooked after Debo almost busted one.
