He showed yesterday there isn't a player in the league who can deliver the ball any better than Jayden Daniels. He was fitting it into tight windows all day long.

Of course the difference was the Washingotn secondary and it was exposed again. But i don't want to see a trade. Peters is not a quick fix guy and I think he is thinking long term success over a quick fix.

Lot's of talk about the corners and for good reason. St. Juste is the best they have but he stil has not learned to keep his hands off, way too many PI penaltiies on that guy over the years. But man we have been searching for an impact safety since Sean Taylor.
i think our corners are adequate for this season, what happened yesterday is do to the threat of Lamar and Henry we had to go a lot to man vs man; all you had to do was shut down flowers who is good but not great; unfortunately not having a shut down corner to guard him crushed us.

I also put some blame on the offense; in the first half the D had some stops and a turnover; with this weak D if they hand you something like that got put points on the board; the O started very slowly yesterday. Missing BRob really made us one dimensional against a good team.

But hey we were competitive and we are 4-2 with arguably now our hardest game of the year behind us. Go back and watch Bills vs Ravens; JD5 and the Commanders definitely held their own against a top team compared to Allen and the Bills.

Pssssss...by the way if Lamar or Henry go down on a significant injury this team is cooked.

No more than we are if JD goes down... These are franchise players for a reason and the franchise will suffer greatly if you lose one of those.

If the offense had been able to score a TD after that pick, it would have greatly affected the course of the game. And in that particular drive, I feel that BRob absence was definitely felt. As good as Ekeler and McNichols have been, they don't have the same effect that BRob has in the run game. The Ravens have a good run defense, but I agree that not having BRob took away from the running attack.

I scoffed today listening Sheehan saying the offense was just fine. Pathetic

I agree, the offense was slow to warm up and beating your chest about field goals made…while every point counts, you will lose on the road against a good team settling for field goals.

Weren’t we the second best running team coming into yesterday? We wilted instead imposing our will…yes BRob was out, but Eckler and McPickles have shown they can’t carry the rock.

I was disappointed in the offense yesterday as well as the defense.
