Washington Football Team – Players, lineup, chart and News

Firstly, the Washington Football Team hopes to return to the playoffs again this season 2021/2022 NFL. However, he aims to improve his campaign for this year, since in 2020 he won the spot with a negative performance of only seven wins and nine defeats.

In this way, the team relies on its excellent defense, which was one of the best in the league, ranking in the top five in various statistics. Likewise, the attack has young players who can increase production this year and thus improve the performance of this sector.

However, the team’s biggest problem is precisely the most valuable and important position of any franchise, the quarterback. Even more, that the QB Alex Smith announced his retirement after 16 seasons, coming back from a terrible injury, where he underwent 17 surgeries, and still winning the award for Comeback of the Year from last season.

Then for his place Washington hired the experienced and folkloric Ryan Fitzpatrick, 38 years. Now, arriving to defend his ninth NFL team, however, the fans know that he is neither the answer nor the solution for the franchise. Thus, it remains to be hoped that he will have more performances as “Fitzmagic” than as “Fitztragic”, as his performances became known when he plays well or when he has terrible performances.

Finally, fans hope he can lead the team to the title of the East division of the NFC, currently the weakest in the league, which still has, New York Giants, Philadelphia Eaglesalong with, Dallas Cowboysthe favorite to win this year.
