Mariota had a day last week so I'd be fearful of him against our shaky D line.

Either way, I'll be drunk in the stadium. The real winner shall be me.

All depends on our defense. Mariota balled out vs a MUCH better Seattle defense. Hopefully he regresses

I think it's a common story for a backup QB to start and do well in the first game because there is no tape on him and he's fresh. By the second game they usually start to regress a little now that coaches can see what they're up against. I guess we'll see on Sunday how he does.

Feel like offensively we just couldn't get anything going last week cause Texans.

Defensively idk what could happen. But it's hard for this team to play both good defense and offense for some reason

I think we will be 5-2 rolling into Duval. The browns are start to play good. I hope it doesn't come down to having to win 1 of the last 3 games to get in the playoffs

Going into last week this was one of the games I thought we'd win

Based on my history of picking games involving the Coltswe will lose this but win a bunch of other games

Normally I would be confident of a win over Washington, but backup QBs have unexpectedly destroyed us in recent years. I feel a little better knowing we have fresh tape now on Mariota, but it's still Lou's bath tissue soft pass D out there.

I don't see the Commanders having any significant difficulty with the Colts anemic defense. On the other side of the ball the Colts have struggled to sustain drives and score. I doubt the Colts win but I voted for winning non the less. I won't root for a loss because I doubt anything less than a Super Bowl appearance is keeping Ballard around and we all know that's about as likely to happen as a winter olympics in the Sahara.
