The Commanders are now using 3 RB’s in ground game. Here’s what the team’s four lead ball-carriers are on pace for this season:
Brian Robinson: 206 att, 1102 Yds.
Jayden Daniels: 160 att, 903 Yds.
Austin Ekeler: 77 att, 457 Yds.
Jeremy McNichols: 60 att, 398 Yds.— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) October 22, 2024
Didn’t realize this live but Kliff Kingsbury started with four straight runs and two RB personnel on each…featuring Ekeler and McNichols.
The first time I saw Brian Robinson in the game was on 3rd/1. #Commanders

Austin Seibert’s season so far.
19/20 on field goal attempts.
19/19 on extra-point attempts.He hasn’t missed a kick that hasn’t been blocked.
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) October 22, 2024
Not many talking about Austin Siebert, why, cause he’s making all of his attempts. Fans only yap and talk shit when a kicker starts missing. Some don’t appreciate the kicker position. I appreciate what he’s done for this team. #RaiseHail pic.twitter.com/gzi9WIB7yh

Mariota was blitzed the 10th most out of any QB this week yet his was only pressured 19.2% of the time which ranked second least
Shoutout to the line up front who have done an amazing job this season even without Brandon Coleman #RaiseHail
— Mason Kinnahan (@Mason_Kinnahan) October 21, 2024
The Commanders offensive line allowed only FOUR pressures the entire game
Props to the guys up front. They gave Mariota the time he needed to progress through his reads and deliver consistently #RaiseHail

Andrew Wylie has had 174 pass blocking snaps without allowing a sack this year. Only 3 other players have more. Give him his flowers #Raisehail pic.twitter.com/9Ni8tJSbFv

This Commanders offensive line has been tremendous this season.
Andrew Wylie is a big part of that.

Among the many Chicago-Washington connections in Sunday’s game: Ken Norton Jr., the Commanders’ LBs coach, will be on the opposite sideline of his son, Kenny Norton III, a defensive quality control coach for the Bears.
