Five positives and negatives for Washington Football Team vs. Cowboys
Positive 4
Tress Way unleashed two punts on Sunday in what seemed like very limited work. Ok, it was limited. Admittedly, it was very limited. So why should he be a positive this week? Two punts and nothing more? Not even one successful fake punt? No trick plays? Yes, it was just two punts – nothing more, nothing less.
Oh, did we fail to mention that one punt sailed for 60 yards and another punt traveled 57 yards? That is a 58.5 yard average on the day. The 57-yard punt was downed just inside the 10-yard line. That is why Tress Way is recognized as a positive this week.
Negative 4
Here is another negative directed at yours truly. Last week’s prediction in the “Grades” article was clearly wrong. Yes, the prediction had the Cowboys winning, 38-28. How pathetic was that call? Yes, yours truly missed it by a wide margin, but the final results were much better. It’s nice to be talking about a huge victory over a division rival and watching the fourth quarter explosion was a lot of fun.
Yes, I am a double negative for the week. By mathematical standards, that makes it a positive, right? Just wait until the “Grades” article comes out very soon and a prediction for the Steelers game!
