[QUOTE=HTTR;1372375]Yes to the above posts. Only reservation I have about this hopeful scenario is wondering whether Lattimore is “the right kind of player” (apart from any injury or skills concerns).

[QUOTE=Chico23231;1372412]Agree, storybook season hurts less due to expectations



When it comes to looking ahead, focus of the team should revolve around stopping the run. Completely unacceptable most of season. I’d also say a rebuild in our running game and not relying constantly on JD5.[/QUOTE]unfortunately DQ's defenses in Dallas were bad at the run too. I hope they figure it out.

It’s hard for me to pinpoint where the failing is on run D. Obviously a younger Wagner type would help a lot. Is it possible that our DBs aren’t reacting to the run fast enough? Do our linemen get tied up too quickly, pressing into blocks rather than fighting them off with better hand technique? Do we need one true monster to draw double/triple teams, freeing up other B+ players? How much is coaching/scheming?

Yes to the fact that we need a true edge rusher to tie ppl up... Payne being out definitely didn't help but also he's not setting the edge on that first td.

It does leave more questions than answers imo like you're saying... I also hope they figure it out.

Re: NFCC POSTGAME
 

very simple we don't have enough elite talent to make up for mistake after mistake .. the reason we got this far was a ELITE QB ! We had to play mistake free to have a shot. We will have a better roster next year and no reason we can't get back to playoffs . I'm very optimistic

We need to sweep the Eagles next year. I hate that team.

DLINE . . . DT's are push/rush pass rushers, not good at occupying multiple blockers and clogging up the middle DE's are not good at setting an edge in the running game. They all need to be replaced.

Allen is gone for sure. But if you are ever looking for talent in Free agency for interior Dline, this is a good year for it. The contract of Panye is unmovable.

You could see from them basically bring guys from off the street to play DT they want a different talent there.

And yeah, they don’t have DE that set the edge. They actually rotated Payne out to DE to try it at the end of the year.

I wanted to wait a few days and let some of the sting pass. I want to Congratulate all the Washington fans on an amazing season. You have all the right stepping stones for a great team in the future and just a few additions and you will be there. I realize it wasn't the ending you all hoped for but it was an excellent season again congratulations.

Classy, though I can't help thinking yours and the Titans GM's are closet Eagles fans!

Thank you G1.

Re: NFCC POSTGAME
 

Where to start?

Game thoughts - every single time we got it within one score someone on our team fumbled. You can't win regular games like that, let alone the NFCCG. Eagles hit all of our weak spots and the turnovers put it out of reach. Congrats to them. We knew what our weaknesses were going into it and that hasn't changed. This team still needs work.

Season thoughts - there were so many highlights this year it's hard to name them all. First time in 20+ years watching I felt like this our staff milked every ounce of talent out of the entire roster. Yeah we didn't win them all but we learned what this team is capable of. And we finally solved the most important position on the roster.

Thank you to DQ, AP, and everyone else who contributed to our first 12 win team since '91. It means a lot to those of us who watched our entire lives without seeing a team capable of beating the best. Thank you for putting a smackdown on the #1 seed Lions. Thank you for all the last second wins, and for not giving up when we lost 3 in a row.

I think the NFCCG was a good barometer of how far we have come, and how far we have to go. This roster still needs a lot of work, but I have full faith in AP/DQ/etc to keep building on this year.

And finally, I've said enough complimentary things about the Eagles. I'd rather watch Mahomes win 5 consecutive titles than to see the Eagles win another one. I hope they get humbled in two weeks.

The one thing the Eagles do that I hope we copy this offseason - they have a good eye for unwanted good players on other teams. Zach Baun was a first team all pro and the Saints let him walk in FA last year. AJ Brown was discarded by the Titans and has kept up his stud WR status with the Eagles. Mekhi Becton was discarded by the Jets and solidified one of the tackle spots for the Eagles. It's gonna take too long to build this roster exclusively through the draft, I hope AP can find some hidden gems on other rosters that are available for the right price because our contending window is now open with JD at the helm.

LOL, I understand that thought but Saquan finally admitted after the Giants tagged him a year ago he would never resign with NY. To add as good as he is he never had two seasons were he played all the games for the Giants and he never would have had the season he did behind the Giants O line.
