Anyone in the 21-day window projected to return this week?

There have been mixed reports about Reagor and Peters, but Edwards seems to be really close. So he is probably the most likely.

With the Cowboys struggling so badly, it doesn't make sense to rush anybody back. Just get everyone healthy after the bye.

Rapaport says Bostic is not likely to be suspended for that hit on Dalton.  That’s pretty weak 

That's bs.

I think you have the NYG and Washington flip flopped.  The Redskins defense has lots of great pieces, a defensive minded HC and reputable DC in JDR.  They will find their quarterback, heck I could even see them bringing Cam Newton in next year if he isn't toast.  Logan Thomas is turning into a pretty good tight end.  They tend to find good running backs too.  They also go in to next year with $50 million in cap space.  They need o-line help in the worst way.

NYG on the other hand have an unproven HC and their best player is a running back who will be coming off a torn ACL with a new contract on the horizon.  What will they do with him moving forward?  I don't see anyone on that defense who is a pilar to build on.  Their WR are pretty average.  Maybe they get Jamar Chase if they think Daniel Jones is their quarterback.  

 

The Redskins have more deficiencies in the secondary than the Giants.  The defensive front for the Giants is very good at DT.  They gave the Eagles fits.  They have Martinez at MLB.  They also have Peppers and Bradberry.  Bradberry has played very well this season.  I don't think the Redskins have anyone in their secondary who would start on either the Eagles or Giants.

I have zero confidence in the Eagles to win this game. Prototypical trap game. The many members in here calling this a lock win is enough to activate my worst case scenario mindset (otherwise known as the Tuesday night Joe Webb mindset.)

If any players on the actual team are going into this game thinking like the majority of the blog, we're in for a huge let down. I'll gladly eat crow if we win, but I got a bad feeling about this game.

I don't see how the team could see this as a lock.  I am not worried about the offense.  I am worried about the defense because Schwartz seems to be 2 steps behind his competition.

The Eagles aren't good enough to have a trap game.

I think they know that.

That's not the point.  The point is, just because Croom is listed as a TE for that game, it doesn't mean he knows the entire playbook for the TE position, nor does it mean he's practiced it.   And with the NFLPA getting the amount of practice time CUT DOWN, and now coaches can't talk to players during the offseason, the deep depth loses a lot of reps.

The shortened practice times and sessions have an effect on the team execution of plays.  The earlier games have seen more mistakes and Wentz not connecting with the offensive players.  Hopefully, this will improve with the season goes on and the games serve as practice.  The constant churning of players due to injuries will still hamper the development.

Still don't get why rudy ford is on the roster. He's supposedly a special teams demon yet every time he's on the field he's making bone headed mistakes and getting penalties ☹️

He has stood out to me as a gunner. He’s ridiculously fast on punt coverage.

He's easily our best ST player. You notice him live and not only on coaches' tape.

Edwards for sure. Reagor/Ford/Peters maybe

Well the only thing I will say is it's hard to have a trap game, when you suck almost as bad as they do.

Yea not sure how Eagles could have a trap game this year. If anything we are the trap game, every game.

Last year was bad, this year he's been great. He's the one that blew up the guy on San Fran or Cincinatti on a punt return. Can't find a video of it.

It's a divisional game against "Americas Team" -- I doubt any of these guys want to go through 2 weeks of hearing how they couldn't beat a DAL team on their #3 QB, and not have another game for 14 days.  They will throw everything at this one.

Unless we get the same kind of game as Detroit last year.  Turnovers, a special teams break down, and dropped balls.

Nope. He was a PS callup last game. He'll revert back to the PS tomorrow.

Then they need to de-elevate him from their roster on the website.

Because they didn't revert back yet. Jamon Brown is also listed on the active roster, and we know he's not. If you count the roster its at 53 with Jackson/Ridgeway on IR. Tomorrow they go back to the PS and two spots open.

They will. It's just how the process is this year.
