    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Please quote me saying we could go all the way. I'll wait. Don't be a retard. At best I thought we could win a game or two. Atlanta would have killed us, Seattle (at least not the random retarded Seattle that showed up a couple times this year) would have been a not so great match up as...

    Cousins better realize it matters a lot in the big moments and big games how much you're worth. Not that most of the team was any better today, but Cousins was pretty poor all day not reading blitzes, and just making bad throws. Final pick was terrible. He had room to step up and run for 5-10...

    I think Caldwell should definitely stay. Agree with Moon that Jim Bob Cooter (yes, you have to type/say the full name every time it never gets old) deserves a lot of credit, but it's a team that is still overachieving in most people's eyes. Literally almost doing it with smoke and mirrors...

    This is when he needs to trust Dez when he gets the man to man on the outside and take some shots.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Ryan's play will be a large factor (maybe the only large factor) in what Atlanta ends up doing...but that team with the 2 seed is set up to be a real sleeper team. I'll be happy as fuck if they win on Sunday so if the Skins get in we would avoid them in a 3/6 match up. Worst possible opponent...

    This isn't a bad point. But even most of these guys have a lot less playoff experience than the Seahawks or the Pats. Hell, Dak/Zeke could be helped by NOT knowing. Historically it's just tough to go right in as a rookie and expect tons of success.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Another weirdness, GB/Detroit could just kneel on the ball for 5 quarters and both get in, but there's still a scenario out there where Detroit can get the #2 seed I believe and the bye that comes with it. Of course, being the night game, they would know what seeding they would get with a win...

    No one is discounting it Moon. You get your undies in a bunch if someone says anything other than Dallas is the proclaimed favorite going in. They are one of the favorites, but not some lock solid you can pen them in. You don't buy experience, and overlook KC...not realizing that the ONLY...

    he did make the nice sidearm delivery in the 1st half on a 3rd down that led to an eventual TD. Still...2nd and 31 isn't the time to start fucking around.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Gruden mentioned it so he could have something to talk about. It wasn't any new look that made Stafford have a stroke and decide that throwing back across his body while scrambling to his left on 2nd and 31 was a good idea. No idea why they abandoned the run so hard either. Aside from their...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Agree with this. We do have the cap space, although I'm sure we'd like to use as little of it as possible for other contracts that come up this year (Baker, Garcon, Jackson) and next (Breeland, etc). But we don't have another option. Already read a few times that if we don't work out a long...

    #1, I wrote that before the win last night. As far as being reasonable...their previous 3 games (Minnesota, Giants, Tampa) were not all that impressive. They squeaked out the win against the Vikings, got held down by the Giants, and blew a 2 score lead against Tampa before managing to get the...

    This would never happen. Lions haven't won a game outdoors all year, but they're going to give up home field and division crown to the Packers? I think not.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Kinda strange to have had everything go the Skins way this week after laying that egg last Monday night. They better come out and play well against the Giants, whether NY plays their starters or not. I'd really like to go into the Sunday night game next week just having to hope for no tie.

    Fuck you Burnem. Detroit wants to win the division not just sneak in as a wild card. But they can play for real next week, they can lose this week.

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I'll say this for them, they know how to really put on a beating. Other teams might let the Jets hang around a bit. Not the Pats, just drop a massive beatdown on them and never let up.

    Went way too big. Too many characters. He had the benefit of time when creating Season 1. I'm not even sure if a 3rd season would work going back to the original cast. A big part of what made Season 1 great was the time jump, the how they went their separate ways, and what they found back...

    See I don't think much of Denver honestly, because any competent D can hold that offense to 17 points or less. Like I said, both wins against Oakland came with caveats...bad weather in the first game (which played right into KC's hands), and a 2nd game in which Oakland literally dropped or...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    I can sort of buy the KC being 2nd best team, especially in the sense of 2nd most complete team (at least with Hill as such a weapon). But their one win over Oakland was in shitty weather, and I don't mean cold, I mean like really bad rain much like tonight's game which made it mostly...

    It's odd because earlier in the year I thought NFC was clearly superior...but I"m not really sold on AFC being better right at this moment. As they were discussing before the night game...who do you really see that has a shot to come out of the AFC now? Raiders basically fucked, Texans aren't...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    AFC pretty nuts with all 6 teams already punched their ticket, just a lot of seeding questions. NFC still Redskins and Tampa on outside but with chance to get in (though Tampa would need a ton of help, Skins ranging from a good bit of help to really not needing much help at all depending how...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    With our offense...anything is possible, although I'd much prefer to have gotten the shot to play Green Bay again rather than Atlanta. Btw, Skins win, Tampa loses...just need Dallas to come through Monday night and we virtually control our own destiny again, barring a Packers/Lions tie. All...

    Skins just need to take care of business today, and hope God like Drew Brees shows up down in New Orleans to beat Tampa. Then I'll have to root for Dallas ONE LAST TIME on Monday night...so all we have to do next week is manage to beat the Giants again and assume Green Bay/Detroit won't end in...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    So...was hoping to see the Giants win tonight, and clinch themselves the 5 seed after their victory would force Dallas to play for something against Detroit and clinch the 1 seed then, thus allowing the Giants to rest their starters against us next week since they'd be locked in at #5. Of...

    It will obviously be the biggest decision of the offseason for us. Even more so than which receiver (if any) to keep, or how to spend in FA on the defensive side of the ball (hoping more through the draft, but we'll see)

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    We'll see, with that much cap space and how our GM seems to like to operate, I wouldn't be shocked if they don't go the route of "dodging" a big to moderately big cap hit the first 2 years. His deal is going to be very interesting to watch how it's structured anyways...with the guaranteed money...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Skins will have a shitload of cap money going into this offseason (something like $60M I think), but Cousins will eat a third or more of that most likely, Chris Baker is going to get paid pretty well on his new deal, and we'll have to decide what to do about Garcon and Desean Jackson.

    I always love it when Oshie goes out there and makes every goalie his bitch in the shootout...then have to pray Kuznetsov scores, b/c otherwise we somehow manage to blow it every time. I know Trotz likes to hold Ovechkin in reserve cause he's not the best in the shootout, but seems dumb as shit...

    NFL 2016 - <whatever Tony is doing>

    Lost out on $18M of cap space for 2 years back to back? Was a pretty significant penalty, for a bullshit "offense". Giants can suck a dick and take this little slap on the wrist.

    Garbage. You don't come out at home on primetime and play like that if you want to be a playoff team. Cousins didn't look great at all early, drops galore, bend don't break D to the max. Season is basically over. Only feasible scenario now is that somehow the Saints beat Tampa in New...

    In reality though, I don't think either should be fined, so I'll live with them getting it right on this latest one. Honestly the NFL should look at Zeke jumping into the pot as a gold mine of PR for Salvation Army. I can't imagine donations don't see a bump after that on national TV. It's...

    Eh, been more reasons than that. Winston first 4 games (1-3): 8 TD, 8 Int Winston last 9 games (7-2): 15 TD, 4 Int Beat KC on the road and beat Seattle at home during the 5 game streak. I think Tampa is slightly for real.
