Let's give this young man a round of applause for his level of play yesterday. He still has a ways to go, but his efforts against the Cardinals were solid. Let's hope it is the beginning of good things for him.

Washington owns Miami's third round pick via Philly (Dotson trade). According to Tankathon, that is currently the fifth overall pick in the third round. If Miami continues to lose, the higher the pick will be for Washington.

Joe Gibbs did that with the Redskins - and did so over a ten year time frame.
23-year span, the Ravens could win three Super Bowls with three different quarterbacks. Has that ever been done? Dilfer, Flacco, and Lamar.

I just want to give a shoutout today to Commanders player Tyler Ott. He's our long snapper and you haven't heard his name being called in any game so far this season. That means he is doing his job and doing it well. Kudos to Mr. Ott.

The decision to immediately leave Cincinnati after that game and head to Arizona was such a smart move. Winning organizations make good moves when needed.

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.

Here is my trade prediction for Washington. There will be no trades. Adam Peters will try, but he will refuse to sell the farm for short-term gains. His vision is to continue with a recalibration, but not lose sight of what the future holds for this team. No trades.

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. Join us in our mission to #SaveRedWolves:

No more mentions of "FedEx Field". No more references to "FedEx Field". Nothing. Nada. We're 100% done with it. Washington is 2-0 at Northwest Stadium. That is the new name. Learn it, love it, live it. Northwest Stadium.

Two players that I want to call out today are tight ends John Bates and rookie Ben Sinnott. They will snag an occasional pass that comes their way, but the real contributions from these tight ends have been superb blocking. Running backs are gaining extra yardage. Jayden

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.

Johnny Newton is probably feeling just horrible at this time. It was a rookie mistake and nothing more. He is going to be a force for the Burgundy and Gold for a long time. Chin up, Big Man! Chin up!.

Bears fans tried to wage a campaign against Jayden in the rookie voting and chose to back Bo Nix. That's fair and I understand it, but this fan base is becoming the juggernaut that it was in the 1980s and early 1990s - even stronger with the internet and social media age. Take.

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.
Sunday was ugly for Washington as a whole, but this effort from Sam Howell speaks volumes. I’d go to war with a guy like that every day of the week.

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.

This week's Commanders shoutout goes to two left tackles. It's hard to imagine two left tackles equally sharing a number of snaps each game and doing so effectively. What a great job by Cornelius Lucas and rookie Brandon Coleman so far this season.

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.
