Donald characterized his performance as typical of his returns to action, noting that similar adjustments were needed when he held out in 2017 and 2018. He emphasized the need to review film and refine his execution over coming games after two years away from competition.
“Playing the game, when I held out in '17, '18 it was the same way when I came back, it took a couple games to get going. It's a little different. I ain't played in two years, so I gotta watch the film, see what I did good, see what I did wrong, and just clean it up.”

And THAT is valid. Honestly I go back to the 80’s as a fan, so yeah, old ass fan through all the shit years has me deeply dyed in blue and gold/yellow. Even when the Rams left, I didn’t become a Chargers or Raiders fan. We were once the laughing stock of the NFL. I’ll never forget that.

Least ready to go I've ever seen a backup QB. Freaking backup hockey goalies who haven't played a single minute all season are more ready to go when they finally get put into a game in the playoffs than Winston was. Forget knocking the rust off, he looked like all rust.

TBF they assumed a player that had retired from the NFL for over 2 years and had only signed with a team 3 weeks prior to their game wouldn’t need to be double teamed. I can see the reasoning.

Oh I’m painfully aware at how bad the current iteration of my team is. Your problem is you’re ignorant of how atrocious your team has always been since the beginning.
-
Garrett didn’t get double teamed more than the average DT. 20% is very low for a DT, especially one that is supposed to soak up blockers.

Nice, hope he enjoys the complimentary food afterwards. Wish him all the best, will he be provided with a nurse at home, to care of him?
-
Ya he looked washed. Like even for a backup QB washed. Looked like he lost some serious arm strength.

Im actually British and waiting for my dad to have a completely free operation right now!
