Commanders want to win this game for London Fletcher announced retirement

[ghst187]

prediction: kirk cousins is going to light us up for at least 30 points. Having a hard time seeing us win this one unless we don't abandon the running game and its working.

I'd be willing to bet the game is more important to you and I than it is to the cowboys.

You think that Romo, Witten and others on the team don't view this game as hugely important? Of course they do. The problem is more so with execution, poor coaching, and a host of other issues.

Of course I don't feel to great about this game but that's how been the last month plus for me so that's nothing new this year.

Kirk Cousins said this is a big game because they know Dallas needs a win to save their season and they want to win this last home game for London Fletcher. Fletcher said he can't end his career with a loss to Dallas and the way they lost to Kansas City at home didn't sit right with them or the fans.

So it sounds like Washington will be fired up for this game and treating it like its a damn Playoff game for them.

Yea the Commanders have dedicated the season to Fletcher. How's that working by the way?

The Commanders would love nothing more than to shut us down this weekend. Make no mistake about it - they will NOT be laying down for this one.

I like that; excellent point. Almost seems like a quickie ploy to generate some interest and motivation.

 

[TTexasTT]

lol So they didnt want to win all those other games?
Guess Fletcher shoulda announced his retirement in week 1.

I've always hated playing in Washington. I remember struggling so bad with Troy even there. A late season loss that made Jimmy explode and a blowout loss to open the 93 season. Even the 70s and 80s games seemed bad there.

RFK was crazy...

If they turn it over as many times as last week we should be in good shape...

Color me skeptical.

 

[fifaguy]

I know

Color me skeptical.

Sooner or later someone is going to hand us a win; can't always be the other way around. The Skins are bad enough to be that team.

I hope you're right but .............

yeah, I know. i'm trying to find a glimmer of hope, something to hang onto besides my fading memories of how great the Cowboys used to be long ago...

For some reason, Cousins concerns me....I do think we will bounce back though, at least against the Commanders.

Fingers crossed.

Absolutely. He can kill us for sure, but on the other hand the Skins have a pretty bad offensive line. Maybe we will even lay a glove on him once or twice...

But when we win there, it is so worth it.

Yeah, they will save their lay down for the Giants next week. This week will be tough as hell, though.

Fletcher's impact will be felt for about 3 minutes until he is trucked by one of Frederick's exhales. However, I expect Cousins and Garcon to relegate Carr to Pete Hunter status. You need only watch the Cowboy score. If they hit 40, they win. If not, Skins lay skids on the Cowboys season.

i look forward to them ending our season on sunday. i'm 99% sure we lose.

After watching their offense Sunday against a better defense than ours Sunday we have no chance of stopping them especially if reed plays.

They will get a few stops though and that is the difference
