When Ron Rivera talks about "interesting circumstances" for Washington, here's what he means: The combined record of the next four opponents is 4-12. Time to chop wood or focus on 2021.

^^ Rams fan forum for this game. They seem to have a collectively low football IQ. I imagine this is because they live in LA and NFL football is still new to them. Not that the St. Louis Rams fans were any better. Who can forget the StL Rams coming out with their "Rams fans Rules" video they would play before home games.

"Rams Rule 1 --- always sit down when you pee!". Im pretty sure thats it.

I like our chances against the Rams, their offense isn't that special. We just have to block Aaron Donald and that is no easy task...

skinsfaninok · 10-08-2020, 01:39 PM

Chase Young is back at practice!

I could be wrong, but I believe Kyle Allen is more mobile and faster than DH. This should help a bit, but I hope Allen doesn't go too crazy with running the ball.

Also, for the love of God, let's please run the ball more often. Gibson needs more touches.

All about stopping the run against the rams.

If we stop the mistakes on offense and special teams, we should be in a position to win the game.

Hope Allen can stretch the field a little more and just find open receivers. Haskins misses too many open guys when going thru reads

I read that a moment ago and got excited. That would be sweet if could play Sunday. We sure could use him.

GridIron26 · 10-08-2020, 04:16 PM

Sims have't practiced this week so far, anyone know what happened to him?

BaltimoreSkins · 10-08-2020, 07:52 PM

Thought last week was WFTs most complete game. West coast team with a 1 pm start. I think this is winnable. Hopefully Allen is an upgrade at QB.

sdskinsfan2001 · 10-08-2020, 08:17 PM

We're gonna win this game and Rivera will look like a genius for at least 1 week. Rams are my dads team. Today is his birthday. Flying up to see him now. Waiting at the airport. Gonna see if I can get the Sunday Ticket app on their TV to watch.

FrenchSkin · 10-09-2020, 06:17 AM

Getting Chase back would be a big plus, Defense did a decent job against the run last week but pass rush wasn't there.

Rams are beatable for sure, but Aaron Donald is gonna be a huge test for our Oline. Schweitzer didn't practice 2 days in a row, I sure hope he's available.

JP Finlay wrote this morning:

If Allen doesn't excel as Washington's starter, the job could be Smith's. And a few quotes this week might support that theory:

Ron Rivera on Kyle Allen's job security: "This will be a game-by-game situation. I think Kyle goes in and he’ll do the things he can and do the best he can and we’ll go from there."

Jonathan Allen on the QB situation: "Alex Smith is a pro's pro. Honestly, I have high expectations for the people on this team and organization. Alex is a prime example of guys with high expectations, not only from the team but of themselves. I'd be more surprised if he didn't come back from the injury, just knowing the kind of player he is and the personality he has and the kind of work ethic he has. So, I'm not surprised at all. If he needed to play, he could definitely do it. He could do it at a high level and I have all the faith in him."

Ron Rivera on Alex Smith working back from the compound fracture: "I’ve been impressed with it. Again, knowing that he’s been cleared to play and then watching him working, especially the last couple weeks, has been outstanding. I just have no trepidation having him come in and play if that’s what happens.”

Stay tuned, sport movies tend to have climactic finishes, and so far, Smith's comeback from injury has certainly resembled a Hollywood story.

Per Rotoworld, Sims is on IR now.. I guess this will give AGG and Wright more opportunities to show us what they have.
