Brian Robinson Jr. has brought a new identity for the Commanders

The analytics say that the Commanders vs. Falcons game was one of the lowest attended home games. I swear it didn’t feel like it. It was different. The buzz was electric. We were out there in the pouring rain and didn’t leave. Go #Commanders

The analytics on this have been confusing me too. But I guess the upper level was kind of empty. But the LL was packed and it was majority Washington fans which hasn’t been the norm as we all know. Place was loudest I’ve heard it in a LONG time.

I keep telling people when Fuller caught that pick it was the loudest I’ve heard FedEx in years!

The Commanders worked out two RBs today, per the wire: Reggie Bonnafon, who was with the team in training camp, and Jordan Howard.

Cornelius Lucas is No. 1 among all offensive tackles in the NFL in ESPN’s Run-Block Win Rate.
He has been the #Commanders‘ top-graded OL per @PFF for each of their last two games.
All this guy has done for three seasons with Washington is play well at LT & RT when called upon.

Washington #HTTC now leads the NFL in fumble recovery luck
Offense: 9 of 12
Defense: 5 of 8
ST: recovered 2 of 3 muffs by the other team, which is pretty rare, and have not fumbled themselves.— Aaron Schatz (@FO_ASchatz) November 29, 2022
The #Packers are waiving safety Johnathan Abram, per source.
Abram contributed during his short stint in Green Bay, which now wants to look at its young guys. So for the second time in three weeks, the former #Raiders first-round pick hits waivers.

#Colts HC Jeff Saturday told reporters today he wishes he would have called timeout after Matt Ryan’s scramble last night. Admits they were in “disarray” after watching it over on film.
“It’s a learning experience. I did not meet my expectations,” Saturday said.

Flex! The Week 14 Miami Dolphins at Los Angeles Chargers game on Sunday, December 11 will be played at 8:20 PM ET on NBC and the Kansas City Chiefs-Denver Broncos game will move to 4:05 PM ET on CBS.

The Broncos are so bad that they forced the nfl/nbc to flex Patrick freaking Mahomes out of prime time.
— Lindsay Jones (@bylindsayhjones) November 30, 2022
It’s the closest they’ve come to beating the Chiefs in seven years.
— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) November 30, 2022
I have a feeling that Commanders v Giants on Dec 18th will be flexed to SNF. It’s currently Pats Raiders and I can see us taking that spot.

Since Vegas won’t do it, I’m setting the line at 118.5 decibels inside NRG Stadium when Deshaun Watson hits the field.

When WSH was their last weekend it was empty and their were lots of visiting fans. I’m not sure they have enough fans going to give the hard time we all expected when the schedule came out.

First clinching scenarios of the season in Week 13!#Eagles clinch playoff spot with: Win vs TEN + WAS loss at NYG + SEA loss at LAR + SF loss vs MIA#Vikings clinch NFC North with: 1) Win vs NYJ + DET loss vs JAX@NFLResearch
— Tom Pelissero (@TomPelissero) November 28, 2022
Biggest concern w/Eagles right now isnt special teams or injuries. Its passing offense
First 7 games: 245 passing yds. That would be 8th in NFL
Last 4 games: 174 passing yds. That would be 31st in NFL
Overall Eagles are 19th in NFL. Were 21st last year

A look at estimated 2023 cap space plotted against a teams 2022 record. pic.twitter.com/cFcgQityR8

Way I would look at this is that the top right is playing with house money this year. Bottom right has many teams with an eye on 2023 right from the start. Top left needed to win this year and is winning. Bottom left are the disaster teams. Were all in on this year and stunk

It’s funny how surprised we are that NFL teams are not great at evaluating college QBs, considering the discourse surrounding how people evaluate NFL QBs.
