I think Philadelphia have been found out. Not sure whether its because they are just bad against the run or the veterans are disgurntled that two defensive players got cut for high profile mercenaries when they didn't contribute to the 9-0 record before meeting Washington and the defense is not gelling.
Still not sure what to make of Detroit, they've got some decent players now. They either win big or get blown out. They exposed the Giants.
Washington racked up their 5th win in six games under Heinecke. I watched the whole game, the guy has average abilities at best but the fire he brings to the game is compelling viewing, I can see why the team rallies around him. Gibson and Robinson Jnr two punch attacks are going to mess up a lot of teams. Robbinson drags five players an extra four yards when he gets tackled and Gibson has 4.3 40 speed so is able to get to stretch the field. The team is reminding me how they played in their glory years pounding the football and running out the clock. I guess with Heinecke they have no choice although he does make two or three outstanding plays a game along with his bone headed ones.
Chase Young returns next week against the Falcons so who are defenses going to double team now. This week Allen got 2 sacks, Sweat got 2 sacks, and Payne got 1 sack. Add Chase Young to the mix next week and the Falcons are going to have problems. You just know Chase Young will want to win that game to keep the momentum rolling.
I'd amost given up on Washington when they started 1-3, now a couple of loses by the Cowboys and Giants and a Wild Card place is up for grabs. Washington play the Giants in successive weeks with the bye sandwiched between them-
