So if the deadskins have major injury problems, makes it easier for Dallas to beat them next time they play, and makes it easier to win the division?

Well sure. But you aren't going to just play the deadskins every game, beating a wounded team does little to help you beat the iggles, etc. Makes winning the division easier, since you only have to worry about the iggles; giants are angling for the no. 1 draft pick next year so they are just about out of any chance to win the division.

But you still have to beat the iggles at least once, and win enough other games to have a better record than the iggles. Not sure at this point the Cowboys can do that...
That's why they actually play the games.

Unlike Dallas im sure they can adjust even if its minor and not go to crap

I don’t know man. That’s a lot of talent to replace in a week.

Of the three, Richardson is least of their concern. He has 252 on the year, his replacement Maurice Harris just went for 100+ last week and is better suited for Smith.

Losing both guards, their all pro LT and a banged up RT is going to be tough.

That’s saying, Smith is out, Fleming is starting. We lose Martin and Williams for the season and Collins miss half of every game.

They are a run first team, which relies on good pass protection, keeping the ball and play action. Smith may get roughed up

I don't care what their record says.....the Commanders are frauds.

And that was before their injuries.

My bad what i meant to say is im sure they could ajust better than we could

I cringe at thinking of losing our line and elliott along with cooper and telling our coaching staff to work around it

I see the Commanders are following the Eagles blueprint for success: get half your team injured and win the Super Bowl,

On a more serious note, the Eagles are still the most injured team in the East, and maybe the whole NFL. Garrett has been given a gift, and if he can't get this team to win the division I'd be more than happy to see his *** gone.

Garrett was given a chance to win the division 3 years in a row and lost to all three division rivals in succession

Hes been given numerous opportunities handed on a silver spoon and failed

This division this year is like celebrating that you're the last person standing on the Titanic as it's going down. Your fate is the same, but hey, you get bragging rights in the hereafter.

I thought I had heard that the Skins suffered several injuries to their O-line yesterday, can anyone confirm?

If so, that might open the door for someone else to take the division.
Morgan Moses got hurt but it must not be bad since he has not been mentioned as missing any games. I know Trent Williams missed yesterday because he had surgery on his thumb and is supposed to miss at least a few more weeks.

Looks like Lauvao was placed on IR today. So it looks like Sunday they lost two starters for the year.

Waiting for the "dangerous", "wounded lion" and "nothing to lose" tropes to start appearing.

It was a rough day for the WAS OL

Trent Williams was out. He's one of the top 3 LTs in the league and seems to play injured every season, so to be out was serious
Scherff got hurt
Lauvao got hurt
Moses got hurt (but returned hobbled)

as a Cowboys fan, I shrug.

As a football fan, I hate seeing injuries b/c it diminishes the quality of the game and, well, just hope my team doesn't end up in that situation

It already has: Sean Lee, Fredbeard, Tyron Smith's back, David Irving suspension/injury, Maliek Collins foot, Swaim/Jarwin out so they may start a rookie at TE......
