Mo, Church, Escobar & Chris Jones missed walkthrough today. Chris Jones just had a baby, which is why he was absent.

Chaz or Free...who is more mediocre?

Free isn't mediocre at all. He's at least league average and he rarely misses games. That's pretty darn valuable.

If a anything Free deserves praise in these parts, not the repeatedly ignorant criticism.

Is Doug the weakest of our starters? Sure, but this is an elite group.

Dallas has average 5.12 yards running behind the right tackle. that's the highest YPC that they have across the line. Free deserves some of the credit for that.

OurLad's NFL scouting service ranked him 20th out 64 NFL tackles for his work last season. Free made NFL.com's All-Underrated team in 2015.

Watch him play, it doesn't appear he is struggling. I would not be surprised to see him go on a streak here. He is getting closer and closer every game to busting out.

I agree, I thought the back injury was new. Did not realize he's been on the injury list since coming back from suspension.

DLaw is having issues with his surgically repaired back already. Not good.

Same thing I was thinking. This factors not into his own long term future, but also makes defensive end an even bigger need going forward. Given Lawrence's situation, as well as the misses with both Gregory and Hardy, defensive end is far and away this team's biggest need. And need number two is trailing far behind.

I keep reading that, but I'm not seeing that. And neither is this team.

Lawrence has been improving since returning to the lineup . . . I'm expecting good things from him vs. the Commanders. Reports indicate he's on the verge of a dramatic breakout anytime now, as his practices are indicative of good things to come. The upcoming game with the Commanders should be a dogfight but as long as this team stays humble and keeps its focus, they'll most likely make us proud. Give thanks and enjoy the game, friends.
