Meh. I’d much rather play GB than Washington. They have just never impressed me at all. They’re I believe 2-4 against playoff teams this season, and one of those was against the Rams early in the year when they were 1-4 or something like that. 
 

 

Washington hasn’t beaten any playoff teams, with the exception of the Eagles with an injured Hurts, and some really lucky breaks.

That's true

We haven't seen enough of McKee to form a valid opinion but he appears to play the style I like to see a Quarterback play,

If McKee plays and goes JUGS machine again, we'd be in good hands. I'm not saying we'd win, but I'm saying we definitely could.

This is why I've always felt teams need 2 starting caliber quarterbacks. Foles was a starting caliber quarterback when Wentz went down. I'm just not convinced that Pickett and McKee are tier 1 quarterbacks.

I'd rather he go breadbasket. But as long as the players with Wings on their helmets catch then, that's ok.

We have some idea about Pickett from his time in PIT. McKee we really have no idea, having never seen him in a game. We should see more of him today though he'll be playing with second stringers against a team with an incentive to lose and thinking of warm places but at least it's something.

After what the Giants did last week, I’m not as sure they want to lay down anymore. Not that we shouldn’t still win, but apparently they’re not as driven by that incentive as we thought a week ago.

The guys on the field playing for their next paycheck or pride and coaches with their jobs on the line could give 2 sheets about their next draft pick.  The NFL cant fully tank with incentive based contracts and whatnot. 

McKee will start and play with the 2nd/3rd level players.  He did the same in pre-season games and did fine.  The team needs to see him in game action to determine if he is the QB2 next season.  They have more to analyst Pickett when he was at Pitts and since joining our team.

We get to see other back-up players who have not seen much action thus far.  Same evaluation process for them.  Dotsons, WR3, will be featured in the passing game, along with other WRs whose roles in the previous games were to block or create space for others.

They are resting so many starters, to the point that they may not have enough OL and DL players to form the lines.
