Yesterday was the beginning of my forever 🤍

Needed more size and depth at the position

[Adam Schefter @AdamSchefter]

Sources: Free-agent CB Rasul Douglas is planning to sign a one-year deal with the Washington Commanders worth up to $3.8 million. Douglas spent last season with the Dolphins, where he started 13 games. A former Eagles third-round pick in 2017, Douglas now returns to the NFC East.

@ScriptureSays__ He’d be more of what they need but do we even know what he’s capable of after that injury?

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Idk if I’m in in the minority but I do not want Stefon Diggs

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

@ChikeCamara Not many options. I’d just hold tight for now

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

@CrewsKontrol Old, primarily slot WR now. I would not want him taking snaps from Antonio Williams

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

@c2_HTTR He’s an older player who is basically a slot who doesn’t separate consistently at this point in his career.

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

@discoque92 It’s the clutch gene that Tana had that maybe stands out in the minds of fans over Terry. But I feel like Terry gets a ton of love. The stadium literally chants his name for 2-5 business days after he catches a ball.

It appears that my account may have been hacked. If you received something unusual from me, please disregard

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Many of the offseason questions and concerns have shown themselves to be legit this season.

A legit pass rusher was a major need. We treated it like it wasn’t.

The Terry debacle - I still place blame mostly on Terry’s side. But they should have targeted WR more aggressively

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Allow me a min (thread)… When you think about the ownership change, hope of what last season brought to us… I’ve never felt worse about a loss (that I can remember). I was already feeling a way about Rob and those 2012 Skins before that playoff game. This is different

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Thoughts: tackling and turnovers lost the game last night (not blaming refs - bad calls went both ways).

They needed JD5 to be perfect and he almost was. But 2 uncharacteristic mistakes hurt. Having said that, his accuracy was back. He otherwise looked great.

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Paying attention to Jordan Magee on this first drive. Has the green dot. Flying around. Needs to stay healthy

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Jacob Martin is quick and violent. Want him on the 53.

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

Bengals may have scored on that drive, but I liked what I saw overall from the defense. Have to wonder what Amos would’ve done on that shot to Chase… not sure what’s up with him not being out there

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

There’s going to be growing pains (for fans) as Adam Peters continues to make his mark on this team. But this is life with a legitimate GM. While he won’t be right all the time, fans have to trust the process.

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

@Yido4Life82 No chance. Most RBs don’t get much in return

[Emmanual Benton @Manny_benton]

I like BRob, but I think without him, it’ll allow Kliff to open the playbook a little more without tipping his hand (when BRob is on the field). Also speaks to how they feel about CRod, imo. Not just Bill
