Washington vs Card Pre Game

[Chief X_Phackter]

Could be a 'just in case' depth addition. I thought things were trending up for CY.

It's pretty widely speculated that his hand was forced on most of those QB decisions by you know who. The only QBs he's likely responsible for bringing here are Heinicke, Allen, Howell and Brissett.

I believe that on Haskins as he was dumped with him . . . But he swore to God (very adamantly) on camera that Wentz was 100% his decision.

Source:

Rivera strongly denied that the owner demanded they trade for Wentz. Rivera had compiled a list of analytics that showed Wentz's effectiveness and had him on a list of desired quarterbacks to possibly acquire entering the offseason. He has said they learned Wentz was available while at the scouting combine in Indianapolis last winter. The report also came out two days after Rivera had answered "quarterback" when asked the difference between his rebuilding team and the other three in the NFC East. Rivera later said he meant that those teams had quarterbacks who had been with their teams longer.

"Everybody keeps saying I didn't want anything to do with Carson, well, bulls---," Rivera said. "I'm the f---ing guy that pulled out the sheets of paper, looked at the analytics, watched the tape when we were at Indianapolis, OK? And that's what pisses me off, 'cause the young man doesn't deserve to have that all the time."

He then ended the news conference.

Wentz later said he was unaware of the ESPN story, but, he said, he appreciated Rivera's passion.

"Coach Rivera, he's awesome," Wentz said. "I've got a ton of respect for him, playing in this league for a while from afar, and getting to play for him is even better. He speaks his mind and he'll be direct and to the point, and in this business that means a lot. Guys love that about him, and he's going to be straight up and very motivational. Guys respond to him very well. I'm appreciative of him."

Guess we'll just have to wait for the documentary to find out what really happened over the last 20+ years.

Anyway, if Howell works out, for me it makes up for any other "bad" QB decision RR may have made. It's tough to get the QB position right. Every team and every Head Coach in the NFL would attest to that.

Interesting, the Dan Snyder effect is transparent now.

Champ, John Riggins, RG3 (no shocker there being the attention whore that he is) are all gonna be at the game on Sunday. Curious to see what other longtime Redskins greats show up.

I am concerned about the weather for sure. A lot of sloppy games it's looking like tomorrow

If what I'm seeing re: the weather holds up, then we may not play tomorrow. Or, it'll be a late start or a Monday game.

That is a strong possibility it's crazy!

Yes it all sounded a bit odd, like last year it was always waiting for the doctors to approve, you hardly ever hear that when other players are injured. Not that his injuries are run of the mill, but still.

Week 3 at the earliest

Rookies going to have to step into the rotation straight away, no Chase, no JSW (maybe), no Efe and no Mathis. John Allen may not be 100%. Good job this isn't a stellar OL they will be facing. But also an opportunity for the rookies to make a splash and potentially complicate the new contracts for Sweat and Young.

Ben Standig -

Commanders DE Chase Young will not play in Sunday's regular season opener and is not expected back until at least Week 3 with a neck injury, multiple sources tell @TheAthletic.
