Commanders 2023 Off-Season Thread

Didn't realize this.. We used to have a major issue in that area in the past.

I'm with Chief, I'm in wait and see mode.

Also, it’s not a Defense Wins Championship league anymore.

I read a PFF assessment of each of our units on O and D. The author judged that our team would be solid across the board except for the QB position. I think that is a fair opinion due to the fact that Howell is still unproven over the course of an entire season. So we'll see what happens.

Personally, I think EB's style of offense will make a major difference for our team. That and my belief that we have numerous young players with significant upside potential, chief among them being Chase Young.

Great news, to say the least! In about three days we should be able to celebrate.

Awesome

I think the defense can be legit, but it won't matter much if the offense doesn't take a big step forward. I'm cautiously optimistic that will happen - eventually, but expecting that out of the gate is a bit unrealistic to me.

One thing that does make me more optimistic about the offense, apart from the addition of EB, is that BRob will start the season healthy, as opposed to with multiple gunshot wounds. A very stiff D and stout running game is a good combination, and I think EB will find ways to make our running game more imaginative, including by using Gibson as a receiver more often.

But mostly this week, I am holding my breath and waiting to hear that the sale is completed and that we will never have to hear about Snyder again. THAT is winning off the field, as far as I am concerned.

Norwell cut, should save $4.3m on the cap

We just signed Michael Badgley, a former kicker for Lions.

I think they need to bring in others as well...really don't trust Slye.
