[font=georgia]George McClellan got two chances. McDowell, the miscreant Pope, Burnside and Hooker only got one. So WNA precedent suggests one more game max for Nunes before somebody else gets a chance.
Our worst play Thursday night obviously was at QB, but our O-line (although their pass pro was good) didn't knock Washington off the line of scrimmage. We couldn't run on them. So of course we tried to take defenders out of the box with the pass. But we couldn't do that either. When Nunes with no one on him threw a short pass to a wide-open receiver (I think it was Ertz or Hewitt) and hit his feet I figured Shaw would yank him right there.Â
I guess it's not surprising that when you have somebody as good as Andrew Luck, you don't get a lot of great talent behind him to sit on the bench for two or three years. Nobody was warming up to replace Robert E. Lee.
