Monday Sixpack: four of Redskins losses in 2018 were to teams that have combined for 25 straight wins through this Sunday. Not sure what that means, except that the Redskins have lost to some decent, hot teams...worth noting ahead of a stretch run. https://t.co/rERXytUxbu

Trent Williams said his ribs are fine. Reason why he left in ambulance: he was dehydrated and a little light-headed. They wondered about some kidney damage, but that turned out to not be the case. He's fine.

There will be no injury report because it's a bonus day. There were, however, many key players who got prax off, presumably due to nagging stuff. Among them: TE Jordan Reed, OT Morgan Moses, DTs Matt Ioannidis and Jon Allen, LB Zach Brown and CB Quinton Dunbar. #Redskins

I have no idea why McCoy throws this ball.
They try and use Floyd as a pick, but the DB stays way over the top of it. Quinn's route is dead. Don't throw this. pic.twitter.com/55X6Ul47of

Trent Williams saves the play by blocking Randy Gregory into Tyrone Crawfod. Yes, #Cowboys fans...said block is a hold, but it wasn't called and what can ya do.
Hell of a throw by McCoy to whip it back across. Saved consecutive 3 & outs. pic.twitter.com/mR1XjSs6gk

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 26, 2018
This is happening WAY TOO MUCH the past few weeks. LB's are running out of the gap the offense is running into. I've been told it's an ill-timed blitz, but then someone has to replace that gap vs run. Clinton-Dix gets juked and there's nobody home. pic.twitter.com/xgh4KN2e6y

Ridiculous play from Swearinger. He starts high as if he's gonna drop back into his zone and is giving a fake man look, but he's actually in man-to-man on Zeke. He flies down and takes a risky angle, but he almost gets the INT. Totally baits Dak pic.twitter.com/kj3gQrA2g9
My current back-of-the-napkin plan would be continue to acquire playmakers on offense/defense in 2019 Draft, take Jarrett Stidham in the 4th round, then let the chips fall where they may but have ammo to get "the guy" in 2020 https://t.co/FPX5SAf0vT
— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) November 26, 2018
There isn't a QB like Baker, Watson or Mahomes in this year's draft and we'd be paying Colt/Alex $24M to do nothing. Are you still OK with pushing in the chips in 2019? https://t.co/MF2Ko3cjiA
— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) November 26, 2018
Big Monday question:
— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) November 26, 2018
Let's assume Alex Smith is able to play again, but will miss at least half of the 2019 season. We cannot reasonably get out of his contract until after the 2020 season (fact). What would you do this offseason?
The Jaguars are reportedly benching Blake Bortles. Cutting him would result in $16.5M in dead cap space next season. They'll likely try to pay some of his 2019 salary and find a trade partner. Won't be easy.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) November 26, 2018
Now headed to IR w/ an torn thumb ligament, has Andy Dalton played his last snap for the #Bengals? The 31-yr-old has earned $67M in 8 seasons, & has $34M left over the next 2 years. But he can be released this March at a $0 dead cap charge ($16.2M saved).https://t.co/NEqTYsNcrA
— Spotrac (@spotrac) November 26, 2018
Looking at the schedules, I think 9-7 is going to get the job done for somebody in the NFC East. That would mean a 3-2 finish for either the Redskins or Cowboys.
— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) November 26, 2018
Although, as you've found out, me saying "AFC South games would be key" in a common opponents tiebreaker was fake news. The key was Washington did too well against Arizona/GB and thus has no shot of winning that tiebreaker.
— Dan Steinberg (@dcsportsbog) November 26, 2018
If the Cowboys and Redskins both finish 3-2, the edge would likely go to the Cowboys, who would be 8-6 against common opponents vs. the Redskins 7-7. Unless Dallas' two losses were to the Eagles and Giants.
