Kind of crazy that if you told me at the beginning of the season that we would be 4-1 after the first 5 games I would have been ecstatic knowing the daunting schedule we faced.

Now I’m pissed we lost to the Packers😖

Justin or actually anyone who was paying attention, how did Manu do? The sack that Hendrickson got sounded like it was on Wright according to the commentators since it was play-action and (I think they implied) the play design called for the LT to turn towards the line leaving Wright to handle (or not) Hendrickson (which sounds nuts to me).

Someone please educate me.

These five games are key to the season. 5-0 would be incredible.

Great result, and all wins are great wins in the NFL. But. Absolutely astonishing that they did not do a better job on Chase in the 4th quarter. He's their only grade A weapon. Kelvin owns that. Penalty parade once again not helpful.

So the local Fox broadcast in Alabama switched to the Washington game right at the start of the fourth quarter! Crazy! Score was 20-10 in Washington game. 28-3 Lions, which ended up with more scoring than the game they switched to. Hope Manu learns and bounces back from his mistakes today! Good to see the offense able to find a way starting a new left tackle! Dan is the Man!

Manu more good than bad today, I think, but the bad was BAD. Hopefully he grows from it like you say. I am optimistic about his future.

I hope every day that he is able to replace Decker, Decker has always been good, never great! He has been better as he matured, and I do like him as a player, but father time stops for no one. If Manu is able to continue to improve, Brad is able to save some money in the LT position, which is going to be needed in the future.

I’ll take the W, and hopefully no long-term issues with the injuries. The bogus p.i. on 3rd down on the first Chase TD drive clearly was a momentum changer.

We should have had a couple more turnovers. I do think that this wasn’t the best team to play a ton of man. Enjoy the drive home

The only thing worse than the officiating was this broadcast crew….. comfortable lead and injuries in the secondary made this less than spectacular, but this team CAN win at KC, at PHILLY, at WASH and home vs Minnesota in the coming weeks and that’s exciting.
