We got Baker, but they got Jayden Daniels | Washington Commanders at Tampa Bay Buccaneers SNF (1/12/25)

[28 Gramz]

Have you seen the Texans O-line? They fell off a cliff from last season which is the reason CJ hasn't been as efficient. He got sacked 38 times last season and 52 this season. He's constantly getting pressured. Show me a QB whose numbers go up when the line sucks.

Take away Dell (who early on was still not 100% from last season's injury), Nico missed 5 games, Diggs only played 8, and you expected his numbers to go up?

This notion that he's had a bad year when they just won a playoff game is stupid.



Didn't forget Brevin Jordan also had a season ending injury.

20 tds 12 picks is mediocre for any QB, let alone a guy that was praised as the second coming at the end of last year.

100 passer rating dropped to 87. He had a bad year, he just ran into a team and qb that routinely comes up small in big games and got a playoff win.

Best case scenario for lions. Avoid rematches with Rams and Vikings. Redskins defense wont hold up against Detroit

As we seen against Tampa, Washington's best defense is their offense. They're going to drain that clock where the Lions aren't going to see the ball a lot. I think the Lions defense isn't as good as the Bucs either.

Just read Gonzalez has OCD so that's why he kept messing with his hair.

Lions have the best offense in NFL. Commanders have one of the worst run defenses in NFL. Lions have best RB tandem in NFL.If anyone is going to drain clock itll be the lions. Lions defense is as healthy as its going to be and they shutdown a good vikings offense completely last week.

Washington is a great example that there's no such thing as a curse in football. If your organization has been trash for years it's because your owner has been hiring the wrong people. That's really all it is. The minute they got a new owner and had a competent search for a GM/coach, they started winning. Same with Detroit. Get a legit GM, hire a coach who can instill a culture. It's not easy but it's also not rocket science.

I KNOW the Lions has a great offense. But Detroit doesn't have as good as a defense as the Bucs. The Eagles is the NUMBER ONE DEFENSE, yet the Jayden & the Commanders still put up 36 POINTS for the win. If this is the game of keep away, that's a better chance on Washington because it would be a close game. And in close game, the LAST THING you want is Daniels in the clutch if you're the Lions. So, I do not think for them to beat them by trying to milk the clock is going to work, because two can play that game. The Lions HAVE to punch them quick each time.
