WFT v. Packers Good Loss post-game

[SunnySide]

At 2-5, looking at the Conference, there is no way we contend for a WC and the season is done for me in terms of trying to win.

I hope we lose out and dont tack on some meaningless wins during the last 5 games of the season vs NFCE teams.

Lets continue playing Jamin Davis, get Bates and Reyes in at TE, rotate some of the depth young guys on DL more, run some scripted plays for Dyami Brown and Mline.

Work on secondary communication. Havent seen those huge holes in coverage btw LBs playing zone and corner/safeties to far back like we did first 6 games or so.

Heinike - doesnt seem to be improving. Feels like we stopped calling and asking him to make certain throws and now we run a neutured playbook.

Blewitt showed he has a strong leg, just not the instant incline of the ball like Hopkins perhaps.

Lose out. Only positive long term positive move we can make. Otherwise we will have the same team next year but with a Case Keenum or some other "non answer" Qb bandaid.

Definitely been a team wide losing effort, including special teams.

2-15 is the way to go.

Never really been about the tank life. But I'm driving that tank right thru 2021 and blasting possible victories to smithereens.

We were 2-5 at this point last year and all seemed lost. Not that I think we're going to see another repeat of last year. Just saying.

There are certain young guys that should be playing. Not a whole lot you can accomplish as far as communication and cohesion with units because it won’t be the same unit next year. Hell it may not even be the same staff. There are probably no quarterbacks going in the top 10 next year so I don’t care if we lose out. We will be in position to take a quarterback regardless. I definitely would like to see all the young guys get major playing time. I would rather finish with 6-7 wins and not be a total laughing stock based on the quarterback class. We are not winning the division and do not have to worry about a first place schedule but lets not finish 3-14. That is just gross. Lol. Here we are in October talking about next year. This fuckin team man. One step forward two steps back. That should be our new name. The Washington One step forward two steps backs.

Secondary - I think the core is there. Curl, Fuller, St Juste and Jackson are 4 of the 5 starters in the secondary next year. Need to find that elusive traditional FS imo.

No top 10 QBs in draft - i dont follow college football hard until bowl time so I dont have any personal opinions but yeah everyone is saying its not a great year. Which really really sucks but QBs move up and down the board so Im holding out hope.

Hard to imagine no QB's going in the top 10. I was just looking at a mock that had us taking Corral at #7.

At least 2 QBs will be taken in the top 10. Guys will rise throughout the season and draft process.

That was last season which was an aberration in the play of the NFC East, IMO. This season, we're no better than any other NFCE team. We're also playing a division champion's schedule which is killing us. Meanwhile, the Cowboys have put together a championship caliber offense to go with an improved defense and solid ST play. In view of the above, I think we're toast.

There is only 3 QBS project in round 1 and ours at 7 is the highest pick, safe to say its not a QB rich draft.

Too early to tell, there are guys that always seem to come out of nowhere and just due to the high demand someone is bound to be overvalued and will go higher than expected.

[SunnySide]

We saw a tremendous April push of quarterbacks up the draft board a year ago, which saw a second consecutive season of quarterbacks going first and second overall in the draft. While Jared Goff and Carson Wentz followed in the footsteps of Jameis Winston and Marcus Mariota in the previous season, we will not see it happen for a third year in a row.

There has been plenty of negative publicity about this season's quarterback class, but it's deeper than the 2015 class that produced Winston and Mariota. Deshaun Watson has given the ball away too frequently over the last three years, but good luck getting his back-to-back performances against Alabama defenses out of your head.

Mitchell Trubisky doesn't have much experience, but there are several boxes he is going to check from a physical standpoint. Patrick Mahomes and Deshone Kizer would have likely been first-round locks in the 2018 draft had they stayed in school, but they still have the traits and talent to get early round consideration this year. Oh, and Pittsburgh's Nathan Peterman might be the Kirk Cousins of this year's draft. It's not a great class, but it has potential.

just hope we get the Mahomes or Watson and not the Trubisky/Kizer/Petterman

I honestly don't want us to win another game the entire year. 2-15. That will give us the best chance to get a franchise QB.

Look at the Bengals right now? They're way better than we are. The low life Bengals. Why? Joe Burrow is the main reason. They also have some studs at wr. Chase is a superstar in the making. Terry is really good but he is not Chase good. That guy may be the best wr in the game and he is a rookie.

Terry is superstar, he just has garbage or over the hill QBs throwing at him all the time.

Seriously. I'm getting pretty tired of seeing Heinicke air-mail balls over receivers heads. Ya boy has a serious problem.
