Hmm? Seems like every week has been “a stiff reality check.”
Then, after we blast dem boys, I hear well it was only the Browns, only the Cardinals, only the Bengals.
We got this Fam. We will challenge all comers. This team never getting blown out, believe dat. #RaiseHail https://t.co/657M5hSpd8

Loved this sequence of plays from Jayden Daniels. 1st play, Daniels throws to Ertz over middle but spots Dyami Brown winning outside. 2nd play, Daniels scrambles out of bounds & tells Kingsbury on sideline to go back to Brown. 3rd play, shot to Brown for 41-yard TD pic.twitter.com/IPYxRMbwEu

The deep throws that Jayden Daniels connected on yesterday are even better watching them on tape. Prefect trajectory, touch, placement. The man is just that f’ing good.

Wow there are only three rookie QBs in 75 years to win 4 of their first 5 starts and Jayden is one of them.
— Marshall (@MarshW_7) October 7, 2024
Washington’s Jayden Daniels (four wins), Denver’s Bo Nix (three) and Chicago’s Caleb Williams (three) have combined for 10 wins this season, the second-most by rookie quarterbacks in the first five weeks of a season since 1970 and trailing only the 13 wins in 1987.

Because Jayden Daniels’ passing touchdown numbers have not been overly impressive, I thought I’d check the rushing TDs.
It turns out that the Commanders are #1 in the NFL in rushing TDs at 2.6 per game.
Saints & Lions are tied for 2nd at 1.8 rush TDs per game.#RaiseHail

Commanders RB Brian Robinson has 5 rushing TDs so far this season.
Only Derrick Henry & Kyren Williams (6 each) have more.#RaiseHail

Over the last 3 weeks, Washington has averaged 3.3 rushing TDs per game.
Only the Ravens, at 2.0, have averaged more than 1.7 per game during Weeks 3-5.#RaiseHail

LCL repairs like #Chiefs WR Rashee Rice needs is measured in months — potentially three months. But if the surgery tomorrow confirms that’s the only damage — if his ACL does not require a reconstruction, that’s excellent news. He should be healthy enough for next season. https://t.co/fEq1RiPoJo

So, this is what happened. Watson realized too many players on the field in the huddle. You will see Cooper counting them as well. Watson knew they were not burning a second timeout. He’s frustrated. Kevin is too. Walks over to his assistant coaches to say something. Gross stuff… pic.twitter.com/pOSKJb6Mw4
