I’m with you. At this point the NFL should step up and say that COVID gets a W this week. It looks like the WTFs by and large aren’t culpable — 94% are vaccinated I think — but have just gotten slammed with bad luck.

It looks like they listened to us - reports are that the WFT vs Eagles game is postponed to Tuesday at 6. Skins have 22 players on COVID protocol - including both of our QB's!

What's mark Sanchez doing these days? Any chance RGIII delays his book to start a game lol. Does Andrew Luck want a boat load of money for a game?

No QB. No Scherff. No Fuller. No Curl. Thomas. McKissic. Samuel.

Oh brother. This could get ugly tonight.

Oh man, I just assumed Kyle Allen would play. So, Gilbert's our QB? Gilbert Arenas - that might be interesting. :lol:

No? - Gilbert Godfied? Get me some Aflak and call me in the morning. Garrett Gilbert? think I'd prefer Arenas.

The thing about the NFL is you have roughly 10 games a year generally during the weekend. Being an hour out from the city is sustainable. I think the WFT fanbase(at least attending games) is more suburban and probably more in VA than MD.

Even is relocation to VA is an opportunity, I am sure Snyder will botch it.

Maybe the name change...isn't the nickname...Virginia Football Team?!?!

This one sucked tonight. Just not fair. Gilbert did as well as he could have, but jeez, we were forced to take a knife to a gun fight.

If it were the Cowgirls out there missing all their players, the NFL would have postponed the game indefinitely.

This season was lost long before this Covid outbreak, so good riddance.

Not supported by facts. Had we won, we’d have been in playoff position.

Wait.... so why did a guy we signed off a street more ready than someone who we've had on our roster all season to play - Kyle Shurmur? What the hell is even the point of having that kid on the roster then?

The front office gets an F- for how they handled the QB position last offseason to this season. Pathetic.

IMO the new team name should be The Burgundy & Gold.

The Washington Burgundy & Gold...

Keeps the team colors and history. It's what some fans already call them anyway.

Seems a little long, but it's the same number of syllables as 76ers for example.

The DC B&G!

:wink:
