Yes, I watched the same game you did.
Yes, I know we lost.
Yes, I know that Fitzpatrick will miss half the season...maybe more.
But I feel okay.
I’m not happy that we lost by 4 points at home in the season opener, but half the league opens the season 0-1 every year. It’s a marathon, not a sprint, and I don’t think we have to start thinking about a top-5 pick in the 2022 draft just yet.
Tuning in late
Let me start with this idea. If you had been unable to see most of Sunday’s game against the Chargers and had turned it on with 12:16 to play in the 4th quarter, here’s what you would have seen: Bobby McCain intercepted a Justin Herbert pass at the Washington 4 yard line.
