Let's take a look at the number of NCAA championships from ACC schools over the last 32 years.
North Carolina - 36
Virginia - 26
Maryland - 20
Duke - 15
Florida State - 9
Wake Forest - 5
Notre Dame - 5
Boston College - 4
Clemson - 3
NC State - 2
Georgia Tech - 1
Syracuse - 1
Across the NFL fandom and the media, yesterday's "penalty sack" is getting a lot of publicity. And now there are calls to investigate the officiating crew. At the very least, KJ Henry should be belatedly credited with a sack.
FedEx Field had a lot of empty seats yesterday. Tuddy got a chilly reception from the fans who were in attendance.
We're likely to see many more empty seats with Sunday's game against the Cowboys. And it will likely be Dan Snyder's last game as owner.
The end of an error.
* Dorance Armstrong is an upgrade over Chase Young.
* Tyler Biadasz is a major upgrade over Nick Gates and Tyler Larsen.
* Austin Ekeler is a slight upgrade over Antonio Gibson
* Frankie Luvu is massive upgrade over Cody Barton and David Mayo
* Brandon McManus is a slight
I humbly ask that
@Redskins
owner Dan Snyder to please adopt the new team name as the Red Wolves. It is a very good name and the opportunity to raise awareness for this majestic creature will pay enormous dividends. Let's all do the right thing. Let's save an American icon.
This is what an American icon looks like. And she's nearing extinction right under our noses.
With only 10 red wolves known to remain in the wild, she could be the last one you see.

Washington currently owns the 17th overall pick in the draft. After today's late games, it could be 15th overall. A loss next Sunday could put them near the 10th overall selection.
The Commanders could've drafted WR Chris Olave in the first round, but that trade netted...
WR Johan Dotson
RB Brian Robinson
QB Sam Howell
TE Cole Turner
We'll find out who won that trade after the 2022 season. My money is on the Burgundy and Gold, not the Black and Gold.
One thing that I see here is a QB who is determined to fight for his team. Another thing I see is something that's been absent from this franchise for many years - teammates willing to go to war for their QB. That speaks volumes for his future and the future of this team.
So, let me understand.
A catch for the Commanders is overruled by the refs on the field and then they upheld the overturned call after a review. Gotcha.
Terry McLaurin had six catches for 102 yards on Sunday. That's an average of 17 yards per catch. Get him involved earlier in the game and good things will happen.
Carson Wentz wasn't the problem today. Not at all.
The oline let him down. He played such a great second half and came close to pulling off a huge comeback.
Not re-signing DeAndre Carter was a huge mistake. Dax Milne is a hard worker, but not that much of a returner.
Despite CJ Stroud's dad being in prison for 38 years, he had a HUGE rookie season.
• 4,108 passing yards
• 23 passing touchdowns
• Playoff berth
• 10-7 record
I will always be grateful for the way Ron Rivera helped with the transition of this team's culture at Redskins/Commanders Park and dealing effectively with a rotten owner.
However, I am basically done with him as the coach of the WC following this game. Ditto, Jack Del Rio.
Carson Wentz was 30-46 for 337 yards, 3 TDs, and an INT today. QB rating of 99.6.
So far this year...
57-87 for 650 yards, 7 TDs, 3 INTs. QB rating of 100.3.
Sixteen years ago today, we lost one of the most beloved players in the Burgundy and Gold's history. It still hurts to this day and it will always hurt.
The last meme of the day. Y'all have seen it many times, but here it is again. It has been fun spending the day here and watching the beginning of a new and exciting era. Love ya - mean it!
The Commanders met with the following offensive players at the East-West Shrine game:
Taulia Tagovailoa, QB, Maryland
Ja’Tavion TE, Sanders, Texas
Frank Gore Jr., RB, Southern Miss
Matt Goncalves, OG/OT, Pittsburgh
Julian Pearl, OT, Illinois
Defensive players coming shortly.
Just hoping that Brian Robinson will be fine, but his season could be over. That is not the important thing here as football can wait.
This feels like Sean Taylor all over again. How much is this franchise supposed to take? How much? How much?
Fans, take note of what Terry did after the play. He picked up that FB for Howell to make sure the QB would have it as a memory of his 1st rushing TD. Same thing for the first TD pass. Terry did it again for Dyami Brown earlier in the season after a long TD reception.
Tomorrow is going to be special. Tomorrow is going to mark a new beginning. Tomorrow, a new era arrives. For Redskins, WFT, and Commanders fans - July 20, 2023 will be our July 4th and Christmas all rolled into one.
One.
More.
Day.
Just thinking out loud.
If the name is Wolves or Redwolves...
The new stadium can be known as "The Den".
The defense can be "The Pack".
The offensive line can be "The Dawgs".
The offense can be "The Canines".
The fans can be "The Wolf Gang".
The Commanders met with the following players at the East-West Shrine game:
Jordan Travis, QB, Florida State
David White, WR, Western Carolina
Dallin Holker, TE, Colorado State
Christian Mahogany, OG, Boston College
Dylan McMahon, OC, N.C. State
Some players on defense to be
The Washington Football Team has virtually met with the following players via Zoom:
Brevin Jordan, TE, Miami
Asante Samuel, Jr., CB, Florida St.
Dax Milne, WR, BYU
Just a few observations from yesterday.
Benjamin St-Juste continues to regress and shouldn't be a starter/regular contributor.
Percy Butler has issues trying to tackle in the open field.
Quan Martin was over-drafted. A better selection would've been Cody Mauch (guard).
I would be very happy with Ben Johnson as the HC, but Bobby Slowik is quickly growing on me. I'll put my faith in the Commanders brain trust to make the right hire.
Ron Rivera is not going to be fired during the season and will likely be here next year as well - maybe even two years. Not saying the NFL is calling the shots here, but there is an understanding it seems between Dan and the league. Let's just focus on the Bears.
Hearing that Washington plans to make Alex Smith a post June 1st release designation. That saves another $4.3M against the cap and makes the actual savings at $19M and not $14M.
* Dante Fowler is a downgrade from Montez Sweat.
* Jeremy Chinn is an upgrade over Kam Curl - provided that he is fully recovered from last season's injury.
* Clelin Ferrell is an upgrade over James Smith-Williams and Casey Toohill.
* Tyler Ott is a massive upgrade over Camaron
If RR is serious about the rest of this game, put Stromberg in at center. Put Lucas in at right tackle. Have Quan Martin at free safety. Take Mayo off the field and let Khaleke Hudson play the rest of the game.
Didn’t see Saints RB Alvin Kamara during final minicamp practice Thursday. Also not participating: TEs Juwan Johnson, Tommy Hudson, DBs Alontae Taylor, Faion Hicks, RT Ryan Ramczyk, DEs Chase Young, Tanoh Kpassagnon, DT Jack Heflin, WR Stanley Morgan Jr., LB Nephi Sewell.
The Raiders have an opening for GM. The wheels are in motion to get the (Tampa) band back together). It will happen. What if the Raiders came to the Redskins and offered a third rounder for Bruce Allen?
😄😄😄
The highest Commanders PFF ratings vs Patriots (Defense)
Emmanuel Forbes - 91.3
Efe Obada - 83.8
David Mayo - 78.3
Jartavius Martin - 72.7
KJ Henry - 68.7
The Commanders were able to formally meet with thirty-two players at the Combine. Twenty of the players were offensive linemen - ten tackles, five guards, and five centers.
I am doing the same. Any Commanders fans that follow me are going to get a follow back for sure.
This will be a bigger and greater fan base moving forward - we're ready to rock it. July 20, 2023 will always be our day.
Today is the perfect day to follow as many Washington Commanders fans as I can today! Our team will be under new ownership! Here's to new beginnings!

Let's be honest... Jayden Daniels got three of his receivers drafted in the first round. That's how good he is and no one can convince me otherwise.
So, whenever you see some dunce cap out there trying to tell you it was the WRs, just turn the tables - because it is true!
Dyami Brown had two receptions for 51 yards (including a 35 yard catch) and had a key 15 yard catch on the final drive in regulation. It was a fourth down play to keep the drive alive. He needs more targets and playing time!
Eric Bieniemy has Sam under center on 2nd and 17. His decisions in the second half will cost Sam from reaching 4,000 and Terry from reaching 1,000. Yeah, you want EB out of here in the next few days.
3-0 in the preseason and ended Baltimore's multi-year win streak in the preseason.
2-0 to start the season and the optimism was flowing.
2-8 since that time and we all feel lower than a flea's little toe.
Love y'all, mean it.
The effort from Sam Cosmi to gain extra yardage here was impressive. Key block out on the perimeter from John Bates helped Terry to gain the yardage necessary to secure the record. Not sure what Trent Scott was doing - no effort at all.
Kam Curl is gone and that is a bummer - I'll miss him. I know some of you had a problem with his father, but I followed him and he followed me.
I wish Kam and Coach Kurl well.
