I wonder if Ben Johnson will be fired because

I do enjoy that immediately after Snyder sells the team, Washington wins more games in a season than they did in any season that Snyder owned the team and have won as many playoff games this year as they did total in the entire time he owned the team.

Good on the Commanders. But it would not surprise me if WASH comes back to Earth in 2025.

With DET likely to lose both coordinators, the pressure will be on Campbell for 2025.

I watch Daniels and my Bears bitterness kicks in.  He tosses a great pass and I’m like wow, great pocket!  There are a lot of guys who would fail even with time to throw.  He’s a fantastic young QB.

He also tosses the Jordan Love floater downfield and has receivers go and get it. Not taking anything away from him, just can't see that from our team very often

You guys make too many excuses for Caleb whose accuracy was historically awful. That wasn't all because he couldn't set his feet and square his shoulders to throw before the rush got to him.

On deep balls sure. I'm also about 99% positive he was instructed not to risk the ball at all which is why he constantly overthrew all the deep balls. 

[Derwood]

Warms my heart that Washington got good again after Dan Snyder was gone.

Mark my words Daniels will regress next season while Caleb ascends.  Be it Ben Johnson or Mike McCarthy Caleb will excel under both, provided, of course, Poles fixes the line.  It's not horsefeathers rocket surgery Poles, fix the horsefeathers line.

His completion percentage was pretty solid for a rookie QB.

If the Bears had taken Daniels there' not even the remotest possibility, under the same circumstances as Caleb, Daniels would have put up the same numbers.  That Caleb did fairly well surrounded by absolute horsefeathers coaching and a joke of an offensive line speaks volumes.  It gives me confidence with improved coaching and line Caleb will surpass Daniels.

Also wouldn't be shocking if the clock strikes midnight on Daniels and the Commanders next week vs. the Eagles.

I know the Lions were depleted but they looked really good.

They did look good, I agree, being gifted 5 TO's didn't hurt.

That would be my instinct but Hurts hasn't been good since coming back from the concussion. I know the weather is bad today but he looked bad last week too.

Upsets happen but I'd be really surprised if the AFC doesn't win the Super Bowl this year.

Snow games are always fun.

I think the Eagles will do what the Lions failed to do stick with the running game.  Lions were running all over the Commanders with Gibbs there was no reason to stop.

[soccer10k]

Well that was a fun game. Hope Bills-Ravens lives up to the billing.

I know it's playoff football,  but it just amazes me watching other teams play a seemingly different sport.

Lamar Jackson has been hit/tackled about half a dozen times in ways that Mahomes would have drawn a flag (but Jackson hasn't)
