Were the commies cheating last night?

[JW82]

Lol. If so, they suck at it.

 

[Beast_from_East]

Do you know how bad you have to suck to get smoked by the freaking Bears

There is no amount of cheating in the world that can make up for this level of suckage.

 

[Praxit]

..yep, they we're cheating. Just dont do it again, or you'll lose. ..lol..

 

[Stak78]

Wait, when did we start calling the Commanders the Commies?
I freaking love it. Make sure everyone knows this is a thing.

Sources say that was a uniform inspector. Usually a former player for the home team who lives in the area -- thus explaining the phone case.

In football it's not cheating if you don't get caught.

Ir caught on camera lol
I can’t tell by the picture but why would someone not on the teams staff be right behind the coach calling plays?

And why he would be in that position on the field I guess.

 

[gimmesix]

If they were cheating, why would you have a Commanders phone case doing this lmao.

Trying to conceal what he was doing by being obvious?

I would think most likely it was some kind of stadium personnel using the phone to communicate with stadium personnel. But I like the idea of a stupid Washington spy better.

There are a lot of people associated with the team/stadium who are on each sideline. Fans don't notice them because they usually don't have anything on them identifying them being with the home team.

Just some bofo who got caught up n da pic!

Former Cowboys WR Tony Hill used to do this for Dallas home games. My favorite Cowboy of all time.

But they all have passes so someone approved them being there

I’m hoping Washington doesn’t completely go down the drain because you almost know they’ll get a win against us. Lol Howell had his best game against us last season. He’s probably looking forward to playing the Cowboys especially after the game Joshua Dobbs had against us. It’s very concerning when we play teams that aren’t playing well.

Yes. Many of them have jobs to do. For instance, they might be there to service the headsets that are provided to the teams. There are a lot of details that have to be taken care of, and visiting teams don't bring staff to handle all those details.

You may remember a couple of years when Dallas brought its own "hotseat" benches to its game in Washington because it had heard that the ones provided by home team the previous week for Seattle kept going out. Well, the home team has staff on the opposing sideline monitoring and taking care of those kinds of things.

It's no surprise that someone with a Washington phone would be on the Bears sideline because of things like that. Now, I don't know what that person's job was, but most likely that is what they were doing.

I believe the coach was well out of position - and that's what made the shot look weird. It wasn't the uniform monitor that was in the wrong place.

Nice way for the NFL to keep guys involved (and maybe pay them a little). Particularly for guys like Hill who had really nice careers that translated to not enough money to live on for life.
