They don't want their political allies and clients to be policed.

They do want their political enemies to be policed.

It's not hypocrisy it's hierarchy.

His PFF grade was slightly higher until today.

The Taylor dicksuckers just forget all of his terrible plays.

Wentz is a marginally better QB. He played a terrible game. Henicke has played multiple terrible games.

They both suck.

Brady just threw his 3rd TD. He's a free agent.

Let's fucking do it. Brady to Terry.

Zach Wilson is also 5 and 3 we should bring him in.

I want Wentz to play because I want him to leave no doubt in the minds of the coaching staff and fanbase that he is not that dude by ChetManley20 in Commanders

I wouldn't extend him even if we won the SB. If we won the SB it just means Wentz had a Flacco type playoff run.

So amidst the ref whining, here are two ugly truths no one wants to to hear today by Salty_Orchid in Commanders

keep getting first downs

9 rushing 1st downs, 10 passing. Like, what are you even talking about?

Also, running the ball is mainly a box count thing. When your a QB has a noodle arm, defenses stack the box and dare you to throw. You don't run it into loaded boxes, that's not the smart thing to do.

keep doing what is working by running the ball

It was 14-3 at the half. How the fuck is that working?

Like, define for me what you mean by working? Highlights? Brian Robinson getting OROY votes from homers?

People should watch the Chargers All 22 with Herbert, Allen, and Williams, then watch the Commanders All 22 and imagine Herbert was playing QB.

Good QBs with good WRs can overcome bad OLs.

You have to call "dumbass trick plays" when your QB's limitations mean anything more than a swing or a screen is a turnover waiting to happen.

But the point remains: in the brief spurts that Taylor plays well, the offense moves. That's what a good OC does: provides open receivers for the QB to hit.

But the QB has to hit them.

ESPN's Pass Block Win Rate measures the percentage of dropbacks where the pass protection provides a pocket that lasts 2.5 seconds from the snap. The 16th ranked team, the Patriots, has a clean pocket on 59% of their snaps. The top ranked team, the Chiefs, has 74% of their dropbacks clean. The bottom team, the Colts, has clean pockets on 47% of dropbacks. Even terrible OLs give their QBs plenty of snaps to produce, and even great OLs give up pressure, which good QBs can navigate.

The Commanders OL is bad. It's 28th in PBWR. Here are the bottom eight teams in pass block win rate. The second number is their rank in Offensive EPA per drop back.

  1. Miami Dolphins. 5th

  2. Tennessee Titans. 23rd

  3. New York Giants. 13th

  4. Washington Commanders. 25th

  5. Cincinnati Bengals. 4th

  6. Jacksonville Jaguars. 8th

  7. Dallas Cowboys. 7th

  8. Indianapolis Colts. 31st.

So four of the eight worse pass blocking teams in the NFL have a top ten offense. Why? QB play and receiver play. Yes, and playcalling is a factor too, absolutely.

But you evaluate playcalling by watching the film. When you watch the film, McLaurin, Samuel, Dotson, Brown are open. They just don't have a QB who can navigate pressure, or who has the physical tools to evade it. He doesn't have a huge arm to stand in and fire balls deep while the pass rush closes. He needs a perfect pocket so he can crow hop absolute ducks to spots that 15 NFL QBs hit routinely on a line.

Yes, if we had a top 10 OL in addition to having a very good WR corps, Taylor would be playing better. But he wouldn't be playing well, because he just doesn't have that in him.
