I appreciate the love and the thoughts from you guys. I ain’t going no where! One thing about the journey, just cause you get to the top doesn’t mean you can’t have more bumps in the road! I’m built different, I’ll be back real soon

Rivera said the timeline for Darrick Forrest returning from this shoulder injury is unclear. Hopeful for the minimum four weeks, but more tests required.

Quan Martin and Percy Butler will handle Forrest’s role.

“I told him I didn’t want to go through a five-year rebuilding process because quite honestly, I don’t have the patience and from what I read, neither does he. You know as they say, ‘Hail to the Redskins.’ Let’s roll, man. Let’s go.” -Ron Rivera January 2020

Washington has ranked 30, 22 & 20th in offense the last 3 years. 18th this year
The offense has been bad in 4 outta 5 1st half games. They’ve basically abandoned the run game

Just finished watching back Young vs the Bears for a post tomorrow because this question of Young and losing contain either with his rush or run d is wide spread. In the Bears game, containment was not an issue for Young. He was disciplined and effective. https://t.co/5x0pgCkByI

Some ridiculous Giants stats:
— Giants haven’t scored offensive TD in 145 minutes. That’s almost 2.5 games.— QB Daniel Jones pressured on 44% of dropbacks Sunday. Has been pressured 81 times this season, 3rd-most by any player through 5 games since ESPN began tracking…

if the Eagles push play gets outlawed…
because the Giants attempted to copy it…
and instead of it working…

well then that would be a brand of 4D chess from NYG the likes we’ve not seen in some time
