On to the Commanders

[jblaze2004]

Going to be a tough game. Could very well see 0-2. We aren't Pittsburgh.

Sad thing is pitts defense especially secondary maybe worst than ours. But watch how we make cousins look like a all star.

They are. They were missing there first and second string corners.

They have 3 difference makers on D. Heyward, Timmons, and Shazier. We have none.

We should be able to run all day.

With that being said, Jordan Reed will have a career day.

Don't count on it.our pathetic run plan seems to be run up the gut for 3 yards every time.

The Skins will likely do to Dallas what the Steelers did to the Skins. As James Hetfield said, "Sad but truuuuue."

The Skins will play 8-9 in the box and easily defend Dez and TWill with 2 CBs and a Safety. The Cowboys won't have audible or RPO calls (like they didn't seem to do AT HOME vs. NYG), and hence we'll see Zeke run futilely into the mess in front of him for a gain of 0-3 yards. Then Dak will try to convert 3rd and Longs and the WRs won't get separation (because they're overrated), and that'll be that.

On the other side of the ball, the Skins will dink and dunk and occasionally throw deep to DeSean, and embarrass the Cowboys undertalented defense.

I hope I'm wrong, but I am not hopeful.

Woe is me.

Hope the Cowboys don't read this and just forfeit.

Skins by 13 or more.

Can't play scared and that's Garrett's coaching style. Steelers went for it on 4th down, 3 times in the 1st half. Would Garrett ever dream of doing that? This team has the talent to compete with any team in the NFL if they had a legit coaching staff. They do not, so prepare for another long season.

No.Garrett has always been a *****.I just can't stand the sight of him, what a charlatan.

Wow, so much doom and gloom. The funny thing is, everyone here in the DC area is talking Commanders doom and gloom! Two very sad, pessimistic fan bases this week. Should be an interesting game this week. I can only hope our RB's will run all over the skins the way Pit did, and that the skins will inexplicably have Josh Norman covering everyone except Dez the way they kept him away from Antonio Brown last night. Breeland got abused by Brown. Did anyone watch that game? Washington looked absolutely terrible. Chins up fellas, we're looking at a beatable team this Sunday.

 

[davey999]

We are a very beatable team.

The book is already open on how to beat the 'backup' offensive game plan of the cowboys. Unless they open up that playbook for Dak and let him throw down the field, all Washington has to do is stop the run and double-cover Dez and take him out of the game.

Through one game, Dak is either unwilling (Weeden) or incapable (Cassel) of throwing downfield. Which one it is could determine how this thing goes...

 

[BigD5]

everyone has been fairly heated about Sundays game against the Giants. this week the Cowboys have a real chance to beat a division opponent and build momentum moving forward. So, what are ur initial thoughts about the game.

One thing I wanna see, is a little more Morris, until Zeke is up to NFL speed. (I don't think it will take long) I also want to see the Defense more aggressive and not so passive. (Meaning play calling)

We're moving on to Washington

I think it is safe to say that the Commanders will react to how they played the Steelers and turn Norman loose to follow Bryant everywhere instead of allow Breeland to handle him.

Or just allow Breeland to duplicate past success:

Thus expect another game like Bryant has had with physical corners and them trying to get inside of his head.

Tuitt is another very good player.
