As predicated, these games were as advertised- a stink show. Unless of course, you are a fan of you know who and the Slick D-WAT. Besides Watson. my key player of the day was Terry McLaurin. Scary Terry is a baaaad man. Check this tape of him zoomin' and going 110% like he was chasing that Thanksgiving dinner

McLaurin has been so consistent this season despite the position Washington's offense has been in. He is one of the most underrated players in the game right now, sneaky good.
Houston @ Detroit:
It's time for Matt Patricia to go, Sh*t it was time a long time ago. I don't know why he wasn't fired in the tunnel after the game. But they won't get rid of Bob Quinn. So as always, good luck Detroit. Let's shine light on the real stars here, that smooth Hopkins/Fuller combination that just went off on the Lions.
DeShaun had a almost perfect passer rating going on to throw for 318 yards and 4 touchdowns. D-Wat was slippin' and slidin' through the pocket and making Lions defensive lineman look foolish.
Watson was thankful to have his favorite target and his electric speed. Notre Damian Will Fuller absolutely thrashed the Lions secondary. He was literally doing whatever the hell he wanted. Speed kills, baby.

Watson is sure happy they didn't deal Fuller eh.
Takeaways
Romeo Crennel has been solid since taking over for O'Brein. Watson played flawlessly. His explosiveness was to his elite ability, but can he stay consistent with what he has around him in Houston.
Matt Patricia has got to be fired. I suggest not waiting until season's end. He is horrid. I find it hilarious he is "defensive minded" and find it shocking he actually worked under Belichick. Gotta go. Stafford has to be sick.
The Football Team @ Dallas:
Antonio Gibson has arrived! He was running all over a depleted Dallas defense. Gibson extended his touchdown streak to five games after rackin' up three toudys to march Washington. Through his first eleven career games, Gibson has scored a touchdown in eight of them. Not too shabby rook. Gibson's eleven touchdowns are sixth ever by a rookie running back.
With Gibson running hard on the ground and Scary Terry flashing through the secondary, Washington dismantled a depleted Dallas team who has had very poor coaching in OC Kellen Moore and Mike McCarthy. They are garbage in the red-zone and have been all year. Coaching hasn't adjusted.
With a fumble today, Elliot leads all running backs with 4 this season.
Takeaways
Washington now takes first place in the daunted NFC East with a lot to look forward to in young stars McLaurin, Young & Gibson. While Dallas continues to look awful while battling a tough loss amongst the staff.
