Washington’s offense isn’t great, but it isn’t terrible either. Without their best player, this defense played a great game. Need to get Jones back and hopefully figure out the right role for him whether that’s moving him back inside full time or what.
I thought Nick Bolton had his best game yet.
Mike Danna and Rashad Fenton deserve mention too. [Reply]
I think WFT is a decent team; not great, not bad. Clear strength is their D-line. Heineke isn't great, but I'd rank him above Jalen Hurts.
The second half was an asswhooping in which all phases showed up. Offense was dominant, defense was very good, and even the special teams had some big plays.
The Eagles are a similar team, speaking of Hurts; WFT is better up front defensively and Heineke is probably a better QB. So I would say that this looks like improvement to me. They're getting better. [Reply]

Honestly most impressed by Fenton. I think he needs more snaps. Another late round steal. [Reply]
-They got off to a really good start. Obviously you want your defense to play well throughout, but I think it's especially important to start fast with our style so we can attempt to build a lead.
-They made moves off-the-field beforehand. Benching Sorenson was huge. Unfortunately Hitchens looked like his injury was serious so we'll be seeing a lot of Neimann with *checks notes* Derrick Henry next on the schedule.
-The end result. All the cards on the table, they only allowed 13 points and not a ton of yards.
The bad:
-WFT's offense isn't good and their best player was banged up so this game doesn't tell us much going forward.
-Pass rush is still a Grand Canyon-sized issue. Guys were open downfield. If our opponent was Buffalo, LAC, Buccaneers, etc. we would have lost big again (due in large part to the offense as well)
Fuck the Chargers. They looked like absolute dogshit today. [Reply]
