Two extra days. That’s what Washington were granted by the NFL today. The Washington Football Team’s Week 15 game against the Philadelphia Eagles will happen on Tuesday instead of Sunday.
The NFL announced three changes to the schedule because of COVID-19 cases. The Las Vegas Raiders vs. Cleveland Browns game was moved from Saturday afternoon to Monday night, and the Seattle Seahawks vs. Los Angeles Rams game was moved to Tuesday night with the WFT game.
On Tuesday, Will Hobson and Liz Clarke accused owner Dan Snyder of attempting to obstruct the investigation into the workplace culture of the Washington Football Team. The article written by them in the Washington Post, detailed several ways that Snyder was alleged to have interfered with the work of lawyer and investigator Beth Wilkinson. On Wednesday, league Commissioner Roger … Read more
Washington placed another eight players on the Covid list today. That brings the total to eighteen in the last few days. And there is still time to go before the next game. Will there be any players left to face the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday?
It’s become almost comical at this juncture for Washington. At what point will the league consider re-scheduling the game? Obviously that’s a difficult proposition with so little time left in the regular season.
Here are the 18 players on the list:
The Washington Football Team will face the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 15. The two teams share records of 6-7 and are tied for second place in the NFC East. Washington are coming off of a bitter 27-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The Eagles are coming off their bye week.
Both teams are looking for a Wild Card spot.
Neither team can afford to lose the game.
While the Washington Football Team rallied late to make a game of it, they were beaten fairly soundly by the Dallas Cowboys for most of their 27-20 loss on Sunday. Dallas rode a strong 18-point first quarter lead for most of the game. The win moved Dallas into a commanding lead in the NFC East at 9-4, while the WFT fell to 6-7 and in a tie with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Despite an absolute donut in the first half, and being down 24-0, Washington still had a chance to win the game at the end. The Football Team posted 12 fourth quarter points to get the score back to 27-20, and within a score. They even had a drive to potentially tie the game at 27-27 with just over three minutes to go.
The Washington Football Team head in to their Week 14 match-up with the Dallas Cowboys on a roll. The WFT have won their last four games, including last week against the Las Vegas Raiders. Despite that good run, Washington (6-6) will need to take down the division rival Cowboys (8-4) – the current division leaders – if they want to keep pace.
This is a huge game for both teams.
It was 21 years ago today – December 10th, 2000 – that Lavar Arrington put a hit on Troy Aikman that would prove to be Troy’s last.
This blog isn’t to glorify an injury. Not at all. It was just a significant moment in the Washington | Dallas rivalry.
Aikman was running out of bounds and throwing the ball away on the play, but Lavar finished the hit as he should. There was nothing dirty or malicious about it. It was just a strong football play.
But if you want to trigger a Cowboys fan and see them turn salty, just mention this play.
It’s #WallpaperWednesday, and today we recognize and appreciate DeAndre Carter. Carter signed with the Washington Football Team this past offseason mostly as a kick returner.
Carter has exceeded most people’s expectations. He been as advertised as a kick returner and then some, having already taken a kickoff 101 yards for a touchdown.
But it’s his work at wide receiver that has been somewhat unexpected. In his fourth season in the league, Carter scored his first receiving touchdown. And his second. And his third.
Two teams in the thick of a playoff hunt will square off at Allegiant Stadium on Sunday. The Las Vegas Raiders and the Washington Football Team both look to further their 2021 playoff aspirations with a critical win in Week 13.
Can Washington overcome a rash of injuries of late, that are forcing them deeper and deeper at positions?
The Raiders were also hit with bad injury news on Saturday night, when Darren Waller was downgraded to unavailable.
The Washington Football Team are back in the playoff hunt after their third consecutive victory. Washington beat the Seattle Seahawks 17-15 in this week’s Monday Night Football game. In doing so, they moved to 5-6, and into the seventh and final NFC Wild Card Playoff position.
It took a late intercepted two-point conversion from Kendall Fuller and an overturned onside kick to finally get the win. But Washington did it mostly by keeping Russell Wilson off the field.
