This is essentially Big12 professional football.

Neither team is adept at or interested in playing defense.

The Redskins are laying the hammer down.
As a birds fan I’ve been rooting for the Commanders so if they win tomorrow they get a home Champ game. I have to say though, I don’t like what I’m seeing and not so sure I wouldn’t rather them play Detroit on the road.

Trickery doesn't seem like such a good idea when it doesn't work. Especially when you're trailing in the 4th qtr.

It didn’t look like they should have whistled him down after the INT, he wasn’t touched.

Avoiding having four turnovers should help.

WOW. I didn’t see Washington with a 45 point game in them. Kudos to them. Goff regressed to being Goff and they capitalized.

I’m happy the Eagles lost at Washington. If they can beat LA tomorrow, then revenge and a healthy Hurts are big factors.

True. But they are just pedal to the metal at all times. What they dId to the Eagles in the second game has had me worried about them since.

Detroit with a 28-yard FG, makes it 45-31, Washington, with 5:01 left in the game.

Losing Hurts was the difference in that game. If the Eagles play them, they can control the clock and keep them off the field.

Detroit tries an onsite kick, and executes a good one, but Zack Ertz corrals the ball for Washington.

Washington attempts a 44-yard FG, with 2:31 left in the game.

Then kick is no good.

The Lions take over with 2:26 left in the game, down 45-31

Eagles O was not the problem that game. They scored 33 points. The problem was they had no answer for Daniels in the 2nd half. Hopefully Fangio knows what went wrong and can fix it.

Washington picks off Goff with 0:25 left in the game.

They'll win the game, 45-31
