Poll questions!!
Welcome to SB Nation Reacts, a survey of fans across the NFL. Throughout the year we ask questions of the most plugged-in Washington Commanders fans and fans across the country. Sign up here to participate in regular email surveys.
This week we have three questions in the Reacts survey.
Our first question this week is the one we ask every week — Do you feel confident in the direction of the franchise? We will track the results of this question throughout the season. For the past seven weeks, the confidence figure has been at...
Washington drops, but is still a playoff team...for now.
The Washington Commanders had two games against tough opponents over a 4-day period, and they lost both of them. Losses to the Pittsburgh Steelers two Sundays ago, and the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night have dropped them to 7-4, and also dropped them from the 2nd seed in the NFC to the 7th seed. Washington was getting placed in the Top 3 by some power rankers, but that seems like a long time ago. They’re comfortably still in the Top 10 on most lists, but there are a lot of questions...
Next step in the process
Washington D.C. and the Washington Commanders got a win in the Senate today. The city has been trying to get the federal government to transfer ownership of the site that used be the home for the Washington Redskins, RFK Stadium. This bill has already passed in the House of Representatives, but was still going through committees and waiting for the chance to get a vote from the full Senate.
Montana Sen. Steve Daines had been a road block in moving on to the next step, wanting the team to honor the franchise’s old logo, and...

“I want to first start off by saying clearly and honestly — Jayden is not injured right now,” Quinn said.
The compulsion to make the matter-of-fact statement comes after Washington’s back-to-back loss to the Steelers and Eagles, and the rookie quarterback’s drop in production compared to a sensational opening seven games. The dual-threat accounted for one touchdown in the losses and...

The move to bench Jones was pretty widely expected over the bye week. Not only is Jones coming off of a poor performance against the Carolina Panthers, but he had already been benched for the fourth quarter against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The bye week following the trip to Munich is a natural break point to make such a significant...

Let’s watch some football!
We’ve got one game left for Week 11 of the 2024/’25 NFL season. The Houston Texans are in first place in the AFC South, and could use another win to widen their lead over the Colts. They’re not the same team they were during CJ Stroud’s rookie season, but they should be more than ready to take out a limping Dallas Cowboys team. Dak Prescott is out for the season, and its now the Cooper Rush and Trey Lance show. They visit the Washington Commanders next Sunday.
Who: Houston Texans (6-4) at Dallas Cowboys (3-6)
Where:...
The Commanders lost to the Eagles 26-18 in Week 11 dropping them to 7-4. Check out their complete schedule and results for the 2024 season. All times are Eastern Time.
The Washington Commanders are 7-4 through Week 11 of the NFL Season. They are currently in second place of the NFC East. They lost to the Eagles 26-18 last week.
MVP love
Tress Way has been through it all with the Washington Redskins/Football Team/Commanders, and he ‘s finally getting some t-shirt love from our friends at BreakingT! This season was one of the easiest in Way’s 10+ year NFL career. This is also the first year of a revolution in Washington that start with ownership, and led to Jayden Daniels getting drafted and leading the team on a record-setting start. Way and Daniels will forever be connected after the veteran made a deal with the rookie for the coveted No. 5 jersey. Enjoy the new Tress Way shirts, and a...
It’s over Danny
The New York Giants disastrous season continues, and they’re on to next year already. They are 2-8 after losing in overtime to the Carolina Panthers, and now they’ve benched QB Daniel Jones. That was likely Jones’ last game playing for the Giants as they look to protect themselves from injury guarantees, before they move on next year.
The Giants aren’t turning to Drew Lock. who signed a 1-year, $5 million deal to be the backup. Third-string hero Tommy DeVito will get the start as New York continues their tank to the top of next year’s draft. DeVito...
