Just for the record, I'm not saying this was definitely a dirty play, only Ngakoue knows if he did it intentionally. DEs do get cut low by those sift blocks every week around the league, so going low to avoid that makes sense. But looks bad to hold position and then go that low.

Good morning everyone!! Except for you Yannick Ngakoue, I hope you step on a plethora of legos

Ron Rivera said they received better than expected news on TE Logan Thomas. Said the tests this morning DID NOT confirm their worst fear, which was a torn ACL. he will have further evaluation to further confirm. But don't know true extent yet

Washington would have 21 days to activate Sweat off IR whenever he rejoins practice. He's worked with trainers on the side field while out. Have to wonder about his conditioning/weight since he's been on a soft-foods diet following the jaw fracture. Still, hope is a good thing.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) December 6, 2021

Rivera on Montez Sweat: SAid they're still waiting to get the OK to allow him to practice Wed; when he does, they'll have 21 days to activate him.
On Landon Collins: in for treatment today, says he anticipates him being cleared for practice Wed. But Dr's have to look at him first

The five-game divisional gauntlet starts Sunday

We need you there

— Washington Football Team (@WashingtonNFL) December 6, 2021

For the #WashingtonFootball Team, the 2021 season is now effectively a five-week season.

With only NFC East games remaining (and already being 1-0 in division games), if Washington can go 3-2 or better in these last 5, they almost definitely make the playoffs. pic.twitter.com/38yk2DixgC

I have a funny feeling that FedEx Field is about to be super lit next weekend for #WashingtonFootball vs Dallas. Meaningful football in December. It’s nothing like it. #WFT #NFL @SportsJourney

In the four-game winning streak, Washington QB Taylor Heinicke owns the NFL's fifth best Total QBR (65.4)...

— John Keim (@john_keim) December 6, 2021

Taylor does throw the ball high. That’s glaring. But it’s also mechanical. All of the mental things that you can’t teach a guy, He has.

Did anyone have doubt that he was going to be able to deliver us into FG position in the 2min drill #WashingtonFootball

— Wizskins (@Itswizskins) December 6, 2021

Asked Heinicke yesterday about this throw. "I just played my football instincts," he said. Taylor worried that the window to Antonio Gibson would close if he took time to set his feet and try to be fundamentally perfect, so he side-armed it flat-footed instead pic.twitter.com/xxcvh1drcc

It took some time but Washington's getting what they expected from William Jackson III.

- Weeks 1-6: 46.8 overall grade, 18 catches allowed for 258 yards and 3 TDs

- Weeks 10-13: 81.9 overall grade, 11 targets, 7 catches allowed for 40 yards and 2 TDs

— Nick Akridge (@PFF_NickAkridge) December 6, 2021

William Jackson targeted twice yesterday.

0 catches.

I said sorry to Rivera and Heinicke now you say sorry to WJ3.

— steve (@StevieWFT) December 6, 2021

Jamin Davis missed 44% of the tackles he attempted yesterday. 4 missed, per PFF.

11 for the team. Likely a point of emphasis this week with this set of skill players coming to town.

— steve (@StevieWFT) December 6, 2021

Ron Rivera appreciates Keith Ismael’s mobility and the way Ismael is a “technician” at center. Reminds Ron of Ryan Kalil, a center he had in Carolina. Nice praise for a second-year player who’s suddenly very involved

— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) December 6, 2021

Love Ron Rivera's answer on the heavy run philosophy & the benefits vs. the lack/exchange of points.

Too much to type but essentially he said high scoring games are not better games. Would rather dominate a team at LOS, etc.

— Chris Russell AKA The Rooster (@Russellmania621) December 6, 2021

Ron Rivera said Landon Collins "looked actually very good" upon coming into the facility today and says "fingers crossed" he can practice Wednesday.

— Matthew Paras (@Matthew_Paras) December 6, 2021

Ron Rivera says Washington has been eyeing K Brian Johnson for a bit. They hoped he'd join the team for team training camp. Yet they never brought in another kicker to presumably compete with Dustin Hopkins. Anyway, Johnson is here now.

— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) December 6, 2021

I know this was high and incomplete, but watching a QB who can escape and create like this on a regular basis is so much fun to watch. #WashingtonFootball pic.twitter.com/M8FCWxHJel

The Raiders went 2-8 on 3rd down yesterday. They didn't convert any after 11:26 in the 2nd quarter and they were in mostly manageable situations.

WFT is 4-0 since their BYE week... And Da'Ron Payne is destroying iOL each week.
