Here are the inactive lists for today’s WFT versus Atlanta Falcons, Week 4 match-up at the Mercedes Benz Stadium. Both teams are 1-2.
Both the Washington Football Team and the Atlanta Falcons enter their Week 4 match-up with records of 1-2. The Falcons are fresh off their first win of the season. They edged the Detroit Lions 19-17 on the strength of a field goal and touchdown in the last five minutes of the game.
Washington are fresh off getting pasted by the Buffalo Bills and Josh Allen’s five touchdown NFC Offensive Player of the Week performance.
Can the WFT defense that was so talked about in the offseason, finally break out this week?
I have a memorable little anecdote. Memorable for me anyway, and hopefully, humorous to you. It requires some context to make much sense, and that gives me an opportunity to reflect back on some site history. I don’t do that as often as I should.
I should probably do it more with next year being our twentieth year in existence.
Way back in the day, the site was part of something called the F2FA – The Fan 2 Fan Alliance. We were webmasters who were chosen – one per NFL team – to form an alliance that collectively provided coverage of the entire NFL. This is pre Bleacher Report / Fansided etc. Same exact idea though.
On this day in Washington history – September 30th, 1990 – Washington pounded the Phoenix Cardinals 38-10.
Gary Clark caught not one, but TWO 42 yard touchdown passes from quarterback Stan Humphries.
The Washington Football Team will face the Atlanta Falcons at the Mercedes Benz Superdome on Sunday. Both teams have 1-2 records coming into the match-up.
Washington were pounded by Josh Allen and the Bills this past Sunday at Highmark Stadium in Buffalo. Allen racked up 350-plus yards passing to go with his five touchdowns – four of them passing, and one of them on the ground.
The WFT defense that was so talked about in the offseason, seemed to have no answers.
It doesn’t seem like the right time to add another wallpaper on the defensive side of the equation right now. Then again, it doesn’t seem like the right time to add a wallpaper on the offensive side of the equation right now either.
What can we celebrate this week?
How about a Washington Legend?
Buffalo’s gunslinger Josh Allen was 22 of 28 for 263 yards and three touchdowns on Sunday against Washington. In the first half. The Bills scored four times in the second quarter alone, en route to their 43-21 drubbing of the WFT.
Allen finished the day with five touchdowns – four passing, and one rushing. He completed 32 of his 43 passes for 358 yards, and didn’t even play the last five-plus minutes of the game. That was when the Bills took their foot off Washington’s fleshy throat, having already salted the game away.

The Washington Football Team and the Buffalo Bills will both be looking to get to records of 2-1 in Week 3 in Orchard Park. Washington come in to the game following a divisional win over the Giants, to rebound from their Week 1 loss to the Chargers. Buffalo lost their opener to the Pittsburgh Steelers, but looked more themselves last week in their 35-0 drubbing over the Miami Dolphins.
On Sunday, Washington square off against the Buffalo Bills. They don’t play each other very often. They are in different Conferences, and often at different ends of the table. This will be just the fourth time they have faced each other in the last decade. And while nobody really wants to remember, it was almost ten years ago that Washington lost to the Bills in a most spectacular fashion.
In Canada.
I was there. Though I have regretted it ever since.
On October 30th, 2011, Washington played an away game in Toronto, Ontario, Canada at the Rogers Centre. It was part of the NFL’s International Series that put games in other world cities, and Buffalo played five home games in Toronto from 2008-2013.
