The Commanders nearly beat the Eagles

[Motorola]

Here's what we know from that game:
1. Washington should be taken seriously. They're a capable team.
2. Philly ain't invincible!
3. Washington has provided the blueprint for beating the Eagles. It involves grinding it out on the ground and playing good defense.

The same Washington that got their doors blown off by the bills

Bills beat down Miami who put up 70 on Broncos .

Is that same CZer gonna come after you again for using "Y'all"?

Haha I don't think so but it very well could be lol.

Eagles are the 11th oldest team in the league.....Cowboys are the.....27th.

And the media keeps placing Philly above Dallas. Yes, Washington is good, but Philly needed a 54 yard field goal in OT. We blasted NE 38-3, and we get criticized! 3 of the 4 teams we’ve played were supposed to beat us, but after we killed them, they sucked! Our game with SF will be close (rating$), but the media will make sure we look vulnerable later to ensure maximum playoff rating$.

Saying “y’all” sounds kinda dumb and overused is hardly “coming after you”! You shouldn’t be so easily triggered by differing opinions, bro. No malice intended.

Washington is a division rival

they were the only team to beat Philly when they were healthy last year

and still missed the playoffs

they are average....

 

[JayFord]

fans on here like to fear Washington. It's weird.

it really is

take all the stuff our "fans" say about us and add an extra 5-6 years behind it

last playoff win ....2005
last nfc championship game ...1991
last time winning more than 10 games in a season ....1991
Last franchise qb...Joe Theisman
last road playoff win ....05

I would say they're average, but improving, and now they have a much better chance to get much better now that Dan Snyder is gone.

I would actually say that Dallas has the blueprint for beating the eagles considering that they are 7-3 against them in the last 10 meetings.

The Cowboys have OWNED NFC East play for the last 10 years, even when they are not very good somehow.

 

[Captain-Crash]

Yep, and I thought I heard George Allen screaming, "How bout the .......skins"

There’s not one team in the league that’s invincible. Everyone’s been tested even the undefeated teams. One fan was claiming Philly isn’t very good because they got behind to Washington and had to go to OT to beat them. What a stupid comment. Lol When Washington gets good QB play they’re very tough to beat. It was the same with them last season. They beat Philly when they got good QB play. They buried us in the season finale when they got good QB play. Their biggest issue over the years has been at QB.

 

[Praxit]

..no team in NFC is real deal. Its open highway for the good team that will get the breaks.

....Stay tuned folks.

The same Washington that got their doors blown off by the bills

....the same Washington that could be us if we don't show up to play.

 

[JayFord]

....the same Washington that could be us if we don't show up to play.

that goes for all teams

the 85 bears defense looked like the 2020 cowboys defense against the dolphins that year

How'd you get from my comment that I was offended?
I just happen to notice the back-and-forth you, 'The Marathon' and another CZer had yesterday in a thread about the term. I didn't even enter into the banter. I just remembered it when 'TMC' used it in his comment today.
It's a southern colloquialism /term. Every part of the country has their own -- example "Youse guys", "ain't, "lotsa", "hon", and "bro", and so on.
People from other parts of the nation hear them and think they're odd or irritating. None of that bothers me.
Just shows how different people speak across the U.S.
Part of our nation's fabric.

You’re not telling me anything I didn’t already know. I WILL say “y’all” is a currently trendy and overused expression, and as such is annoying to lots of people. Ask around.

And no malice on either part, which is cool.

The Commanders always play the Eagles tough like that. Maybe not always, but usually.

I thought the refs were giving the Eagles some breaks.

But I worry about both of those teams against Dallas. We usually have Diggs to to they best WRs out of the game. Without Diggs I think both teams will throw deep on Dallas. I think Hurts is overrated but he throws a pretty good deep ball with accuracy.

I think Washington has a lot of Moxy but if you can blocker their defensive line, I think you can throw on them.

The refs gave eagles breaks? The calls were extremely pro-washingyon in this game....directly leading to Washington scores.

It will all even out though.....but in this isolated game Washington heavily benefited from calls. Any unbiased person who watched would see that.
