Heinicke to ATL is official. One of the most polarizing QBs in our history. say what you want, he outperformed expectations. I think the overhype is what caused the fan divide but tip of the cap to him
I think by now we've seen that perhaps Wentz wasn't the issue with the passing game, AG wasn't the issue with the run game and Jamin isn't the issue on defense. 🤷🏽♂️
Ron is choosing to build his team with very little star power but team centric guys. It's a Joe Gibbs kind of philosophy, let's hope it gets Joe Gibbs kind of results.
it's been 10 years since felt like Goliath. Ever since then we've had to be David even when we were winning. I want the Commanders to become the bully again
On this day in 1991, Mark Rypien threw for 442 yards and six touchdowns while Gary Clark had four receptions for 203 yards and three touchdowns, as the Washington Redskins defeated the Atlanta Falcons 56-17 at RFK Stadium.

Emmanuel Forbes reportedly “reminds” Commanders team president Jason Wright of Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie.
Several scouts reportedly believe Forbes’ “ball-hawk tendencies” are reminiscent of Rodgers-Cromartie.
Forbes recently “singled out” DeVonta Smith as the WR he wants to…
Don't let your love for Howell force you to hate and root against Wentz. The only
@Commanders
QB that's going to win us games right now is Wentz because he is the only one playing.

in Week 1 were No. 2 in the NFL in ESPN’s Pass-Rush Win Rate at 58 percent. Not too shabby considering no Chase Young and that they didn’t blitz a ton.
Carson Wentz is the number 2 QB in the NFL behind only Tua and is on pace to obliterate the passing record for our franchise. If you told me this was our future in December of last year i'd have been elated.
Small things that would have made a difference to this fan base. All of these dudes should have been skins lifers:
- Alfred Morris
- Lorenzo Alexander
- Darrel Young
- Antonio Pierce
My biggest gripe of the Rivera era in DC is that this team hasn't been fun to watch. You may feel differently but it's felt like a very dull brand of football.
I hope that we've matured the organizational malpractice with our handling of young QBs. Our last 2 were
- Haskins (RIP)
-Howell
Neither of which was supported by an offensive system or a coach that wanted them. QBs will be busts but it's like we sought out to ensure it.
The Texans are a great example of:
1. Hiring the
#1
GM from the
#1
org
2. Hiring a young rising HC
3. Drafting the best QB in the draft
My friends, we have a chance to do all of those things
Step 1 completed.
@Commanders
when Carson is ready to throw only 2/5 receivers even crossed the goaline. The two that did cross the goaline ran directly to the defenders. The play call didn't even give the defense anything to think about.

Underrated performance from Week 1: Commanders DT Daron Payne had 2 pass deflections, 1 sack and 3 QB hits against the Jaguars.
He's the first player in Washington history to have at least two PDs, a sack and 3 QB hits in a single game.
Wentz being Snyder's decision doesn't even sound right. There is nothing flashy about Wentz. If it were Wilson or Rodgers i'd believe it. Wentz feels like the decision of someone who wanted Ryan Fitzpatrick last year and traded a 5th for Kyle Allen the year before.
keep perspective when Brian Robinson Jr returns. Don't expect him to be Marshall Faulk & turn on him when he isn't. He's a power RB who's longest run at ALA was 37 yards. He is going to be very good for us appreciate the skill set he does have not the one you want him to have.
Geez, I just rewatched the Minny game. TH is just dreadful. If not for 2 lucky/amazing catches by Curtis/Terry this offense would’ve produced 20 points the last 2 weeks. The play calling/QB/Line is the perfect mix of incompetent. A playoff roster otherwise. Ugh
By trying to take away someone's car you may have taken away his dream and you could have possibly messed around and taken his life. It's 2022 bro get a job and stop trying to take what others have earned.
I'm not talking QBs today. That can wait for Wednesday. The run game kept the Philly offense on the sideline and turnovers on defense kept them coming from behind. Let's all celebrate that.
