Game clearly unraveling. Three-game losing streak w four to play. Half the players are dead. Will it all burn? Will Gruden be forgiven again?

The #Redskins never had a number 6 on their roster until Ali Haji-Sheikh, who kicked for them in the Super Bowl vs. the Broncos, wore it in 1987. That's what I'm reduced to tweeting as they close out this depressing game with Mark Sanchez at QB.

Two thirds of the 354 votes in my poll say the Redskins won't win again this season. Harsh. Maybe true, but harsh.

Philadelphia is moving the ball and grinding the clock. They're up 12 with 6 minutes left. It's just too hard of a comeback for the #Redskins to make
— Riggo's Rag (@RiggosRag) December 4, 2018
When Alex Smith got hurt signing a veteran backup made the most sense. I would sign a kid off somebody's practice squad and start them after you lose your next game. Try to develop somebody you think has some game. Why not? #Redskins

That double-pass play is going to get shredded because it did not work. That said, if Trent Williams doesn't slip and he makes that block, that is a TD. I kind of loved it. #Redskins
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 4, 2018
If Trent Williams didn’t slip that would’ve been a TD from Chris Thompson. Alas

— Lewis Woodruff (@LDuB312) December 4, 2018
Kaep is the best QB out there currently. On top of that, they could quickly install a base set of runs, RPOs and PA that involve him as a runner and give the offense a foundation as he gets up to speed. https://t.co/HKgkKTvYCU
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) December 4, 2018
Literally why not? I have no idea if he even wants to play again but guys would probably ball out for him. This is the point where Redskins fans start to count how many life preservers they packed on this ship. If Bruce was in charge of that...Imma get mine now

Good news: Adrian Peterson has 95 rushing yards through 3 quarters.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 4, 2018
Bad news: He got 90 of them on one carry. 7 attempts, 5 yards otherwise.
Disagree with Booger on "limited athletic ability" for Zach Brown. He just isn't any good in pass coverage and wasn't last year. Coaches seem to not believe in him/trust him either for some of that stuff.

— Craig Hoffman (@CraigHoffman) December 4, 2018
That means Ty Nsekhe is going to have to play guard.
The #Redskins' defense has made two massive stands tonight. The first on a 4th and goal stop and the second on the Norman INT. Two trips inside the 5 with nothing for Philly.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) December 4, 2018
According to my score-keeping, McCoy stayed in the game for two more plays, and completed both his passes for 5 and 10 yards to set up a 44-yard field goal, AFTER he broke his leg. Terrible luck. Big heart.

Obviously pretty solid there. I know they probably want to slow this game down, but mixing in some tempo isn't the worst idea in the 2nd half. Make it easy as you can for him.

Kelce's really good but eventually you gotta get off the block. Also, Mason has to wrap up.
Bad angles by both safeties too.

But you watch; at half-time he's going to ask the Eagles DBs if they want to bet money on the game, then he's gonna start firing lasers.
What a hustler.
Adrian Peterson's 90-yard touchdown run was the longest run in #Redskins' history. The previous longest, from what I can find, Billy Wells dashed 88 yards in 1954.

Nice play design there by the #Redskins to get away from their goal-line. Davis got them to the 10. They hav eto punt, but all things considered, it wasn't the worst outcome. Philly has good field position with time winding down in Q2 #WASvsPHI #HTTR

Ok. Fine. Since people are asking. Here are your updated MNF misery numbers. Since 1998, the Skins are 5-22 on MNF, for a winning percentage of .185. Obviously, that's the worst MNF record in the league over that span.

Last one, because what really sticks in your mind is the blowouts. Since 2008, the Redskins have lost six MNF games by at least 17 points. There have only been 52 such blowouts in that span, and needless to say, no other team has been blown out as many times.
— Dan Steinberg (@dcsportsbog) December 3, 2018
Oddly, though, things are much better away from home. Since 98, the Skins are 4-6 on the road on MNF, which is kind of middle of the pack. (At home, they're 1-16.)
— Dan Steinberg (@dcsportsbog) December 3, 2018
