I don't know that it's possible. I think you do go into this game saying, all right, the main focus is going to be on Saquon, but that means you're going to have one-on-ones on the outside. And like I just said, he's an elite goalball thrower. So with Devontae Smith, And A.J. Brown on the outside, it makes it difficult. So it's a pick your poison type thing.

But I would go into the game saying that. I mean, you have to stop Saquon. That being said, you know, the other way you combat that is you possess the ball. And when you have fourth and six or less, you go for it on offense, which is the formula that Washington has pretty much used all year and being really aggressive on fourth down. And then they've got to light up the scoreboard.

They know going into this game, this isn't going to be the same game that the Buffalo-Kansas City game is. That game is going to be 24-23, 27-22, whatever it's going to be. This one, in order for Washington to win the game, they've got to score 30-plus points and maybe 40 to win this game.

into the NFL my last few years, and I didn't like it at all. I think maybe it's just what he's grown up with. But yeah, it's obviously working, and maybe I should have done it more. But he also has that thing where if he doesn't like what he sees, he just takes off and runs, and nobody can catch him. which is really effective too.

Yeah. But he, between, between the way that he throws the deep ball and the way that he processes, there's one play in particular in that last game, it's cover zero. He's got two guys free coming at him and every quarterback in the league, you're taking the flat route. You're throwing it at your hot throw. You've got an unblock guy. He just takes two more steps back. the hot throw is covered.

And then he finds Zach Ertz on a seven route to the outside. He throws it three steps before Ertz is out of his break, right in stride. And it's like, what planet is this guy from, you know, between the athleticism, his ability to throw it accurately and now his ability to process and, The calmness, the poise under pressure, it's unbelievable and something we haven't seen recently.

Yeah, so it's the first time I got something stuck in a hole that I couldn't get it out. And my brother lives next door. So his son is becoming a shot putter. And so his little shit five-year-old son brought the shot put ball over to our backyard and thought it'd be fun to get it in the hole. It literally was the perfect size.
