Think whoever wins that takes the NFC.

The whole 'pulling your hair out comment' is in relation to having your best ever season and the NFC North is the strongest ever, with two of the competitors going through rebuilds. The injuries you're getting now aren't helping.
Yes indeed...Mike Carlson said on Nat Coombs's podcast we've got 23 regulars on IR :oops:

Goff needs to up his game and pass for 600 yds and 6 td's till some are back

Going to be a close finish between the Commanders and Eagles. 30-28 Philadelphia with just under four minutes left. Itā€™s been a really enjoyable season for Washington; plenty of hope for the future!

Bit of a mixed bag for my Texans in the last 7 days with a Dophins win at home and a defeat to the Chiefs.

Ryans and Stroud were the first HC/QB partnership to win 2 back to back divisional titles in their first 2 seasons.

But a heavy price paid in Saturday's loss at KC with Tank Dell's severe knee injury. Not good at all.

But it doesnā€™t matter as heā€™s just led a game winning drive. 36-33 with 6 seconds left.
Great game! Five turnovers and and still get the win - against the Eagles of all people. (Not even going to mention the Browns, although I did have a dream the other night that I was the one who had to sack Kevin Stefanski. He was quite philosophical about it.)

What are your thoughts on Stefanski? Seems to me that heā€™d be looked at for other jobs if the Browns sack him, but maybe itā€™s time to move on.

Happy Falcons fan. Buccs lose. Penix in and two "winnable" games to go. They might actually do it.
Even though the Giants took the lead, I knew it would last a mere 3-4 minutes, such is the rubbish weā€™re serving upā€¦.

Now waiting for us to trade the number 1 pick for Kirk Cousins and a round 7 pick, such is the Giants inability to get anything right in the last 5 yearsā€¦.

Absolutely buzzing today! Had to turn off notifications on my phone and watch the Washington game on delay as I had been out yesterday evening. What a crazy game, both teams going at it hammer and tongs, that first quarter was utterly breathless. Big hits, big mistakes and some big plays from both sides, that was a division rival game.

For Washington to not crumble after Saquon's magnificent run put the Eagles 21-7 up says a lot about what Dan Quinn has done with this group. They did not quit, they took advantage of Hurts' absence and fought their way back into the game. When Jayden took over the ball for the final drive I just knew he was going to win the game. What a throw to win it was too, unbelievable.

I'm used to watching Washington win ten games over multiple seasons, not in just one season. A fantastic early christmas present, to drop 36 on that defense is seriously good stuff. Just want to clinch a playoff spot next week now and finally see a post season game where we at least have a punchers chance.

RaiseHail!

TBH the problem isn't just him, and sacking him won't turn us into a good franchise. The whole 'Waston' fiasco (where Stefanski, GM Andy Berry and the Haslams are all saying it was a joint decision) shows that it isn't just one part of the organisation that makes mistakes. It's interesting that one of the few decent players we possess, Myles Garrett, is making noises about leaving, and the fanbase, rather than turning on him as a Judas, are largely sympathetic. We know he deserves better, as does Chubb.

However Stefanski is the obvious fall guy (and he HAS made mistakes), but in some ways it would be harsh. Until this season we were making progress under him.

Would take Stefanski over Daboll at this point (though I donā€™t mind Daboll). The Giants just need a change and a liftā€¦.

The Browns (FWIW) just need some luck from where Iā€™m sitting, relatively good defence, not the worst running game, just the Watson thingā€¦..

Will Chubb ever be the same, that was a big injury?
