Message: [QUOTE="Husky25, post: 5334208, member: 2839"] That was a tough game last night for Washington. I'm not so disappointed with the loss, but what happened on the way to the loss. First of all, No excuses. There was no hinge call that went the other way or single play that turned the game. Green Bay WON in dominant fashion. Their defense will be tough for any of their opponents and barring injury Josh Jacobs will be a beast all season. On the other hand... The four major injuries are all huge blows and are going to hurt (No pun intended) for the rest of the season. Wise (Big bodied run stopper) and Ekeler (receiving back) especially so. Bates too. He may have been the best blocking TE in the league. Noah Brown is living off the tipped Hail Mary ball vs. Chicago. He'll need to fall down the depth chart. I think Washington has a couple options on their practice squad but may go looking for a surehanded vet as well. Washington should have had a kicking competition and not just have anointed Matt Gay. He will probably need to clear out his locker this week. Finally, the jury is still out on Josh Conerly. One might expect more out of a 1st round tackle, but a veteran would look foolish vs. Brian Burns and Micah Parsons over a five day period. Oh well. On to the mini-bye and Week 3...But first UConn Football on Saturday. Need to get that rancid Orange taste out of my mouth. [/QUOTE]
