Not to interrupt Dan vs Wentz chat, but can we talk about how bullshit the Redskins schedule is?

This weekend we play on SNF before having a game Thursday midday. So basically a 2.5-3 day turnaround. Fine whatever I guess it's only 8 hours less than Dallas gets plus travel time too.

The week before Christmas we play Carolina on MNF and then have a SATURDAY 1PM game @Chicago, so a 4 day turnaround Only team in the league with 2 short turnarounds in one season.

Thanks, Mara.

We got penalized for exceeding the salary cap in a year where there there was no salary cap. Of course they are against the Skins.

That's what I was thinking too. It's nothing against Buckhalter. He was a competent rotation RB. But he's just not the kind of guy you expect to hear brought up as someone's childhood hero who they seek to emulate.

But the entire NFC East being good hurts your NFC East team. I'd much rather have a lot of scam wins at 11-12 wins than 7-8 hard fought wins when that 7-8 wins sends your team home after Week 17 and you get to watch your NFC East foes take your team's place.

I'm more talking my point of view with regards to when the Eagles are eliminated.

I'd prefer the NFCE win the Bowl, then the NFC in general.

Basically gently caress the AFC.

I think I would rather another heartbreaking Super Bowl loss to the Patriots than an NFC Championship loss to the Cowboys.

Dak was fantastic for all but the first 2-3 drives. hard to imagine Romo would do any better. And he historically turns the ball over more, meaning the Ravens might have won if he had done so

Yeah but if I can guarantee one thing with certainty it's that Dak will throw more INTs eventually. It's just not possible for an NFL QB to average an INT rate lower than about 2% and right now Dak is at 0.7%. Which isn't to say he can't keep his INT total down the rest of the season, but keeping an INT count like that requires as much luck as skill, particularly if you are throwing downfield as much as he does. He'll average out, if not this year, then next. See also: Brady's 4-INT season, which was a massive outlier.

For what it's worth, Romo's career INT rate is 2.7%, which is decent--Here are some comparisons:
Rodgers - 1.6% (!)
Brady - 1.7%
Wilson - 1.8%
Brees - 2.5%
Rivers - 2.6%
Roethlisberger - 2.7%
Peyton Manning - 2.7%
Eli Manning - 3.2%
Favre - 4.2%

That's above the NFL average over the last 3 years (2.4%), but that also takes his tumultuous early years into account--his INT rate has dropped over the last few years, to 2.3% over the last 3 years.

Sure, Prescott could be the next Wilson (and gently caress if sportswriters aren't all pining for the stories they can write there), but I'll be surprised if he doesn't end up more on the "pretty good" side of the spectrum, and I'll be perfectly happy if he does the trick Romo has done and hovered around the top 5/in the 6-10 range for most of his career.
