Twitter: Washington top two QBs will be out on Sunday

[jrumann59]

Wow, this game is pretty much handed to the Eagles.
Now we really must win, and we clinch.

But the games must be played first.

Impossible, I heard here GG was a great backup and deserved to develop.

 

[jrumann59]

True, he looked good

He looked OK for a journeyman backup.

 

[cej757]

With these Covid test coming in so late in the week, I bet some of their guys won't play next week either?

 

[CowboyRoy]

How is this relevant?

 

[exciter]

Watch Gilbert come out and play like a HOF and win the game. That’s ok we will just beat them the following week after we take care of the Giants

Lol, he would have to be able to progress past the 1st read, something he hasn’t been able to do his entire career even after having a full training camp!

 

[dagreat1_87]

Crap, now they're going to test our D-line.

Close Contact.

yup i'm honestly quite worried about that.

If the WFT loses on Sunday and we beat the NYG— we clinch the NFCE division

Never understand how some people are all worried about the Eagles and Skins. NFC East was over in week 4 it was obvious.

There has been like one repeat division winner in 20 years or something like that lol… it is an unpredictable division. And it usually comes down to the last 2-3 weeks— and we have lost a lot of “win and you’re in” games— hence the flinch reflex in Dallas fans when it comes to worrying about the division title

None of that means squat. It was obvious what kind of team the Cowboys had early on.

Its not how you start the race… it’s how you finish. We looked good for the first half of the season— but have been scuffling at .500 for the last 6 games.

2007 we were 13-3 and lost to the 9-7 NYG at home after earning the first round bye. No one thought the Giants would beat us— and they won the SB.

Teams can get hot and the hottest (and healthiest) teams are the ones that win in Jan and Feb. Is Dallas a “hot” team right now? The D most definitely is… but the offense has cooled off considerably since wk 9.

Dallas will win the division— but any success beyond that is questionable at best

 

[Mr_437]

New system, new team...2 days to learn the offense and start a game..so unfair for GG. Oh well, Eagles getting a dub.

 

[Jake]

If he plays like he did against the Steelers last year, watch out!!

True, he looked good

Gilbert's performance against the Steelers is this forum's classic fish story.

The NFL was so impressed by it that he's been a practice squad guy all season.

 

[KJJ]

They started the season with Ryan Fitzpatrick. Got to give them credit for hanging in as long as they did with all the key players they lost. We would be lucky to have 4 wins if we lost the players they did.

 

[guag]

Any team could be in this situation going forward. I think the Browns are in about the same boat. Cowboys should keep all 4 QBs separate as much as they can.

Seriously. Imagine if a COVID breakout were to occur in the QB room while they are all watching film.

If I was a conspiracy theorist, I might start to think that an opponent could potentially sabotage another team's QBs in this manner in the playoffs or something. Imagine Green Bay having to play a playoff game with their emergency QB... lol.

 

[mrmojo]

Didn't this Gilbert guy play with th Boys?

 

[JustChip]

This is going to be a league wide issue for the next 2 months.

Yep. Designated Survivor precautions.

 

[JonesBoys]

But do they still control their destiny? The WFT that is

 

[Aven8]

If both of those dudes have it that means Parsons, Dlaw, and Greg’s might have it too! Lol
