Writing about Jahan Dotson for a post tomorrow but the TLDR is people are too worried about him. Seen some saying his route running is bad and he’s taken a step back. Not true at all. He’s doing fine. Targets/catches will come.

Jahan Dotson has received 15.5 percent of the team’s targets, up from 11.5 percent last season, per TruMedia.https://t.co/aZAGQbeDsQ

Ron Rivera on Chase Young: “He’s done exactly what we’ve asked. He’s done some good things. Very dynamic; he has some explosion to his game. He’s doing a great job.”

Well this will be interesting: John Hussey’s crew will work The Giants-Commanders game Sunday. Was his crew that worked the Sunday night game last year (the McLaurin call to wipe out a TD; the non-PI against Samuel in the end zone).

Tough to find a better play to showcase that sacks are a QB stat and why there’s a disconnect between fans and analysts on how well the OL has been playing https://t.co/Hkpd2sOhaK

.
Insightful chart here. Being on the left means sacks come when OL gets beat fast. Being on the right means pressure comes well after snap (IE- holding ball. https://t.co/ZDyWlans2N

This is my big thing this week with the Washington Commanders.
Just a few weeks ago, they played the Eagles so tough. Were right there.
A few days later, fall flat on their face vs. Bears
Last week, they win in ATL
What type of team will we see vs. NYG? Gotta get this win.

Josh Ezeudu (toe) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday. He was playing left tackle with Andrew Thomas (hamstring) out since Week 1. So Giants now down their top two LT options.
Justin Pugh appears to be next in line, even though he is currently on the practice squad.
