Brandon Coleman impresses in first full start

Breaking down the rookie left tackles performance in his first full game.

Officially, Coleman gave up zero sacks and zero quarterback pressures, so on the face of it he did well. But stats can be misleading sometimes, so let’s dive into the All-22 to see how he actually fared.

First it’s important context to say that the Commanders had a gameplan to help...

Distractions and a lack of paying attention to details wreck the Cowboys in Atlanta

The Cowboys have a lot of problems right now and many of them aren’t even what is happening on the actual field.

The Dallas Cowboys are a mess in almost facet of football, and that includes on and off the field. Their 27-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons demonstrated just how far this team has fallen, and no...

Jayden Daniels put in another very good performance this week against the Giants, though it may have seemed a bit unremarkable since it featured no more than 2 or 3 incredible passes and no particularly spectacular runs. This week, with the Commanders never trailing and in possession of the ball for the final 2:46, the ending was rather anti-climactic and the outcome was never in any serious doubt. Still, it was an impressive performance by the rookie QB.

Daniels protected the ball as usual with no fumbles or interceptions in this road game against the Giants; in fact, he has...

Tracking the trade rumors

The NFL trade deadline is Tuesday, November 5th at 4pm EST, and the rumors are starting to pick up as teams determine whether they are buyers, sellers, or not in the market. The Washington Commanders are in the first year of their recalibration under new GM Adam Peters and HC Dan Quinn. The fast start was a surprise to many, and it puts the team ahead of schedule, and possibly in the market to improve the team now as they eye the playoffs. Rookie QB Jayden Daniels is having a historic start to his career, and...

Let’s watch some football!

We’ve got one game left for Week 9 of the 2024/’25 NFL season. The Tampa Bay Buccaneers have lost 3 of their last 4 games including two losses to the Atlanta Falcons. Their only win in that stretch was against the Saints who just fired their head coach. Losing their top wide receivers was rough, but Baker Mayfield will need to pull some magic to get a win tonight. The Chiefs are the only undefeated team left, and the 1972 Dolphins would love to pop some bottles tonight to celebrate that streak ending.

Who: Tampa Bay...

The Commanders beat the Giants 27-22 in Week 9 to improve to 7-2. Check out their complete schedule and results for the 2024 season. All times are Eastern Time.

The Washington Commanders are 7-2 through Week 9 of the NFL Season. They are currently in first place of the NFC East. They beat the Bears 27-22 last week.

The Mara Curse is OVER!

This was a weird game to watch. It didn’t really seem like Washington was clicking on all cylinders either offensively or defensively, yet they controlled the game from start to finish. The Refs tried everything they could to help the Giants out, but in the end, Washington’s offense proved to be too powerful for the G-Men to stop. It may not have been pretty, but Washington walked away with a 27-22 victory and will still lead the NFC East.

Below are my Studs and Duds of the game, followed by some Notes.

Jayden Daniels keeps wowing teammates, and the Commanders keep winning

Daniels is ‘something special to watch’ as he throws two TD passes and Washington sweeps the season series against the New York Giants with a 27-22 victory.

As his teammates rushed toward him in celebration, Terry McLaurin stood in the end zone, turned to New York Giants cornerback Deonte Banks and, with a sly smile, shook his head.

Cowboys Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb injured in soul-crushing loss to Falcons

This Dallas Cowboys season has been broken for a long time now and Sunday reaffirmed that.

Coming into this game against the Falcons, it felt like a major tipping point for the Cowboys. Following a loss to the 49ers, the wheels were starting to fall off, highlighted by Trevon Diggs confronting a reporter outside the locker room following the game.
