It's a short week, the next game is at home and that might be a good thing after a 43-19 drubbing two days ago. That said, I'm not sure what to make of some interesting historical factors, maybe you guys and lady can make some sense out of them.
1. Following their 0-6 Monday nights since 2015, our guys are 3-2.
2. Our guys are 0-4 against the Panthers since Cam has been their starter.
3. This is an "win one" week for us if you follow their pattern of win-loss, win-loss.
4. Carolina has been as inconsistent and might have been 2-2 minus a 63 yard FG in their last game. They are this year's NFL oddity, winning against a team that they should have beaten and losing to the one that should have beaten them.
5. The difference between the teams is that the Panthers have an identity, with Newton and RB Christian McCaffrey on offense and LB Luke Kuechly and DT Kawann Short on defense, while we are still searching for whatever ours will be. The Washington defensive line has the makings of becoming the core of their identity, but it’s too early to make any kind of definitive point about that unit. Offensively who knows what Jay Gruden wants them to be, that's a major problem, we have some tools but no identifiable pattern on how they are used.
To be honest, I'm not sure what to make of this upcoming game, perhaps you guys and lady have a better perspective than I do. Thanks!
