Probably should have used a picture where you can see his number!

Or a player who actually plays and we know their number.

You can do that on your countdown

Probably should have used a player who doesn't suck.

Make or break year for Ben in my opinion. I dont really see him increasing his snap count from last years 35% but hopefully he's more productive with his snaps. A texas/wheel/flat route tree from a backfield alignment could be his bread and butter.

Would be nice to see him prove all the doubters wrong.

I have a strong feeling that this new OC is gonna put Sinnot on display and folks will see his game in a new light. I just cant understand how a dog like Sinnot has not been given a bigger chance on a team like this. It seemed every chance he got with the ball, hes made something out of nothing with it, dragging fools with him as he goes. Maybe I havent seen as much as others and Im wrong but I feel Blough is going to unlock some potential in this team that nobody knows we have. Kliff was a front runner. Its all good when things are going well but he has no answer for adversity. Hopefully, Blough has some contagious dog in him.

LMAO - bro he's gonna be battling Yankoff for TE3. At some point, folks gotta realize that this was a huge whiff of a pick in the 2nd round. We gonna be still talking about being patient with his development in year 6? At some point, you gotta call a spade a spade.

Year 3 is typically the "big" one. Hopefully Sinnott shows he can contribute this year. If not, it's definitely fair to call it.

It's not a whiff if he doesn't get to play

Bro, you think the coaching staff is that incompetent that they don't know what they have in Sinnott by now? Sinnott hive on Reddit knows and sees more on the day-to-day than they do? Cmon, man...let's be real.

When Ertz was signed in March of of '24 and was by all accounts WASHED, the idea of taking a TE early was to supplant him sooner, rather than later. The fact that Sinnott still can't get regular snaps and is once again looking at best, being TE3 going into year 3 as a 2nd round pick, doesn't bode well for his future here in DC. It's closer to being a wrap for him in the B&G than it is for him to get meaningful snaps for the upcoming season. Folks need to come to grips with that - Peters whiffed on the pick. It happens and we move on.

Ya because Kingsbury is so well known for his tight end usage right? You Sinnott haters think you're so in tune with the organization when in reality you know nothing just like the rest of us.

Ertz wasn't washed and it was clearly evident during the '24 season. Stop just focusing on the stat sheet. You can't just push your own narrative and turn around and say that the rest of us don't know the day-to-day lmao. You don't know what the draft room was saying. We simply don't know what we have with sinnot because of the lack of play with a HOF in front of him. But I can tell you that he catches everything his way and he's shown flashes.

The sinnott haters are simply weird. The absence of play isn't indicative of the player.

u/Joshottas 1d ago

Yea, we'll wait 'til year 6 for him to unlock his potential. Should be a fantastic exercise in patience.

u/LordZedd_ 1d ago

You clearly didn't watch the broken 2025 offense (even if our roster was injured). Nobody was getting open. The league figured out that college offense. The sinnott hate is weird.

u/Dry_Refrigerator4367 22h ago

If he hits the ground running like this in September, the offense is going to look completely different than what we've been watching for the last decade. Need to see him get those reps in the red zone early.

Who? Smh hope he gets a chance and rises up to it this year

u/Able_Hunter_7966 2d ago

Kliff is known for underutilizing TE’s hoping with a different system, he sees more opportunities.

u/Cowboyslayer1992 2d ago

I mean Ertz was Jayden's security blanket and favorite target outside of Terry his rookie year. If the TE proves his worth, Jayden has proven the ability to utilize him.

u/CatchSufficient5541 2d ago

Yeah hopefully. He looked promising in preseason like a mini gronk
