Commies are tanking for the number 2 pick. We might be resting starters by halftime.

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

There really is no point in them playing. Ron is gone. They want to retain that great pick they have too

 

[Flamma]

That would be great news. Hopefully the Eagles see this and sit their starters at halftime. I have the Giants +3.

I don't see how vets would be happy with that, many probably have bonuses to earn. And the NFL won't be happy either if you make it THAT obvious you don't want to win. They'll play and they'll play hard

If I were the GM I'd tell the HC to sit them all. Lets the backups play and show what they have. Start getting ready for next year and next HC.

 

[glimmerman]

They playing spoilers. They will likely play..

 

[Risen Star]

My advice: Don't play anyone easily emotionally scarred.

It's not a football game. It's a 2023 Division Champs party.

The only thing I’ll say is the eagles did exactly this one year and the cowboys barely limped out with a win
Have to play the game and dominate early enough to rest our starters if/when we can

 

[DFWJC]

Perfect game to really pad stats again

If the tables were reversed, how many here would be happy if the Cowboys beat the Washington Commies in an utterly meaningless game, and in doing so, dropped from pick #2 to pick #6 or 7? Lose out on one of the top two QBs or best WR Harrison.

Be honest.

Washington fans want the second pick. Washington management want the second pick.
Washington players want the second pick. Yes, they do. They know they need a top QB or WR.

LOL - I swear some of you act like dogs chasing cars. Don't listen to this JP Finlay character. He's probably one of Mike Fisher's drunk buddies. They both deserved to get arrested!

Who’s this guy? You guys will believe anything on the internet. Not directed at you OP.

 

[Havic]

Definitely should be playing for the pick if I was Washington.

 

[WillieBeamen]

They playing spoilers. They will likely play..

If Jake Fromm was starting, id believe they are actively punting this game.

You talking about when Dallas put a 50 burger on Philly on the road when they sat Hurts and other starters?

I hope it’s over by halftime and we can put in backups. I want to see how our run game works with backups and they all actually try..

If we were in the same situation, I'd want to lose for the #2 overall pick.

A washington commanders beat reporter. You can go check the commies subreddit. They seem to think he is credible for what it is worth.

Interesting that they are playing Howell. Sam stands to gain the most with a win. It does appear Allen and Samuels will miss the game though.
