When Alex Smith was riding to the hospital, here's what he wanted to know: What was going on in the game; how was Colt McCoy doing.

Would’ve made it like a 20-30 yard FG attempt which Hopkins would’ve nailed. That’s some BS https://t.co/rFLdBaAD92
— Hogs Haven (@HogsHaven) November 20, 2018
Would have led to a chip shot field goal attempt to win the game. Kind of a massive missed call in that it dramatically altered the outcome. https://t.co/IhXC6ZJcV8

McCoy says he went and saw Alex Smith yesterday. He says all things considered, Smith is in good spirits.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 20, 2018
He also said Alex told him to go run with the opportunity. McCoy is very grateful he got to see Smith and his family. They’ve grown quite close.

Chris Thompson and Jamison Crowder were listed as DNP in today's walk-through.
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 20, 2018
Crowder's certainly out, however there's still hope for CT who is feeling much better this week. Might come down to coaches determining if they'd rather wait one more week and try and get him to 100%
Dunbar says he rushed back the first time from the injury and that was part of the setback now
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 20, 2018
Quinton Dunbar: Nerves are funny
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 20, 2018
Gruden says Chris Thompson would help this team so much in big plays, but also in pass protection. Was an issue against Houston without him.
— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 20, 2018
Cooley on the pick-six: "It's not a choice route… It's a called route. Jordan's open. Shoulda been a touchdown. Alex missed that throw."
— Burgundy Blog (@BurgundyBlog) November 20, 2018
3:09 2nd Quarter, 3rd & Goal
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 20, 2018
Offense was ROLLING right until the Pick-6. It's a GREAT route by Reed. Gets Reid to turn and then is wide open. Pressure causes Alex to throw early, but he aims it too far outside. Throw should be back in. Goes right to the wrong Reed/Reid. pic.twitter.com/lo3g2Xy9NZ
7:00 2nd quarter, 1st & 10
— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 20, 2018
Smith tries Harris on an out and up. As Mo prepares to jump, Joseph bumps him and he never leaves the ground.
Harris needs to sell this. Should he have to get a PI call? No. Should he anyway? Absolutely. Throw a full on fit. You'll get the next one.
Cooley says the free rusher who indirectly caused Alex Smith's leg to explode was clearly the responsibility of Byron Marshall.

Hey @treyquinn8, what down is it now? pic.twitter.com/gH1m9rhEsy

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) November 20, 2018
Danny Johnson misses a tackle as a gunner and costs the #Redskins about 20 yards in field position. This might've been their worst ST game of the season. Tress's literal only bad punt of the year cost them field position late in the game, too.

Deangelo Hall on #GrantAndDanny today: "The mere thought of us having the conversation of our backup QB, Colt McCoy, possibly being better than our starter who we just traded a player and a pick for and re'd him up, something’s not right,"
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) November 20, 2018
Cooley pod: "Colt McCoy is going to be a probable boost for this offense in the short term." Again, I don't know how this can't be viewed as an impeachment of the trade. It's Week 12.

Preston Smith is having by far the best year of his career. He'll be this offseason's "contract year wonder?" debate.

Watching A. Donald last night made me wonder if any of the #Redskins front three could ever become a game wrecker like that... he may never become as dominant as 99, but Ioannidis is capable.

A passer rating of 100 used to be the gold standard of quarterbacking. It means almost nothing now. Fortunately, with advanced technology and smart statisticians , there are so many better ways to evaluate quarterback play: https://t.co/cGMCTenwYV

Brandon Marshall told me he’s doing everything he can to catch up & earn his piece. “It’s a machine here, from coach Payton, to Drew and everyone else... It’s impressive. It’s my 13th season, 9 offensive coordinators, my 7th team, and I’ve never seen anything like this.”

It's possible that a ridiculous Ryan Fitzpatrick performance in Week 1 is the only thing stopping the Saints and Rams from undefeated seasons except when they played each other.

Of all newer rules - the 1 I struggle w/ the most is the “defenseless receiver” personal fouls!? Back in day if a QB did that his WR came back pissed at his QB for laying him out... now u lead them in to danger & it’s a High 5 ✋& 15 yrds! Sorry D don’t know what to tell u, SMH!

Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs are both on pace for over 170 targets. That's happened just twice by a pair of teammates since targets became an official stat in 1992 (Herman Moore and Brett Perriman 95, 96 Lions).

Teammates have seen 150+ targets in the same season just 7 times
Rams RB Todd Gurley leads the NFL with 15 carries inside the opponent's 5 yard line. James Conner (11), Kareem Hunt (11), Alvin Kamara (10) and Carlos Hyde (10) round out the Top 5. https://t.co/On7zLvMICq
