Washington opens the season facing two teams (Jaguars/Lions) who combined for 6 wins last season. And that’s the preparation to preparation, to preparation.” So just trying to make sure we’re focusing on what we’re doing right now. I always kind of refer to what Andy used to say is don’t play the game now, play the game on Sunday. And that’s why, for me personally, I try not to get into it where we start thinking about what’s going to come on Sunday. It’s that anxiety, that anxiousness and it’s crazy because that’s something we can’t control. You get that pit in your stomach already where you wanna throw up. Going to miss a couple parts, but I’m anxious to see what we are, who we are, where we are. I’m anxious to see what that combination is gonna be.

Ron Rivera is known for his teams starting games and seasons slowly. But he means a lot to me.” Rivera’s slow starts
Went through a lot of good and some of the bad, obviously, altogether. “I thought he was a great coach, great guy, fun to be around. “He meant a lot, meant a lot with the kind of whirlwind that year was - learning I was the starter eight days before the season, all those things,” Wentz said in his Wednesday press conference.
