In case you missed it: Metro will stay open late and we’ll cover your fare home. We need the whole @commanders family there. #HTTC https://t.co/gblywAWC7q

Great job by the Commanders getting Metro extended on Sunday night. It’s an obvious thing to do, but it does come with them covering the cost so credit to them for stepping up and making the commute easier for fans.

We’re excited to announce we’re teaming up with the @Commanders to run trains “overtime” to get fans home after the game Sunday night! Are you ready? Learn more: https://t.co/78kd827BgR #HTTC #wmata #YourMetro pic.twitter.com/YvBxnExbjb

Some fans: “I’m very concerned that Chase Young’s knee will ever recover. ACL surgeries can take well over a year to recover.”

Hate that I’m even posing this question, but should the Commanders shut down Chase Young for the season if he doesn’t play Sunday night against the Giants?
— Riggo’s Rag (@RiggosRag) December 15, 2022
Jack Del Rio has been the best Chase Young barometer and todays comments are interesting: “when we get the green light, we’ll go and until then we’ll just keep working hard. I think that’s the hard part, dealing with the anxiousness and really wanting to be back mentally” pic.twitter.com/Ka9hqgGthl

Scott Turner on the explosive Curtis Samuel presenting so many options with play-calling:
“It’s more like I have to contain myself. I don’t want to kill the guy.”
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) December 15, 2022
So Dan Snyder is selling, right? For sure?
Some NFL folks don’t trust that the @Commanders will be sold—mostly because they’ve learned not to trust the guy who owns them. https://t.co/ZjkIvQoVdT
— Albert Breer (@AlbertBreer) December 15, 2022
They think they’ve struggled with attendance to date? Wait and see what happens if Snyder reverses course and the league empowers him to do so. I have hung in there as a fan but that would be the death knell for me. And I don’t think I’m alone.
— BGObsession (@BGObsession) December 15, 2022
The recent comments from the NFL owners’ meeting indicate that the plan – to have the Commanders sold by March – is moving apace. No need for the NFL to stoke more controversy or create more bad press for itself when it’s already getting what it wants.

I hate to say, but I think the quid pro quo is that Snyder sells and the MJW report never sees the light of day.

Roger Goodell says Mary Jo White has been given no timeline for her Commanders investigation; will it simply die on the vine after Daniel Snyder sells? https://t.co/j6OdjMJhE2

My gawd….This #49ers defense vs. the #Commanders offense is going to be not even fair next Saturday.
Mercy.

#Seahawks WR Tyler Lockett broke a bone in his index finger tonight vs. the 49ers and is likely to miss time. A significant loss down the stretch for Seattle.
— Ari Meirov (@MySportsUpdate) December 16, 2022
The Seahawks (7-7) lose, which is another swell result for the Commanders. Means Wash and NYG will remain among in top 7 playoffs slots with 3 weeks remaining regardless of who wins or should they tie again.

Every DB in the Vikings secondary not named Chandon Sullivan is 6-feet or taller and yet they are 31st in the NFL in total snaps in press alignment. Also only call man 10% of the time.
Can’t recall ever seeing a defense refuse to lean into the skillset of their players like this

Chris Simms on Hurts being MVP front-runner: “They have the best O-Line in football, 2nd best WR duo, a great TE.. There’s just no way he’s more valuable than Mahomes, Allen, or Burrow, no way. If Minshew is in, the #Eagles are still damn good. I’m sorry.” pic.twitter.com/B6qfzihrBn

Drew Brees, the former NFL quarterback, is being hired as an interim assistant coach at Purdue, source tells @SINow.
He wanted to help during the coaching transition. He’ll assist team in prep for the Citrus Bowl and coach in the game. He can also recruit via an NCAA waiver.
— Ross Dellenger (@RossDellenger) December 15, 2022
The Eagles might be the only team in the top half of the draft that makes sense to draft Bijan.
Not that he isn’t an immense talent, but they are just the only complete roster – with a likely need at RB – that can afford to take one there as a “finishing piece”, so to speak. https://t.co/Z9VJjyEoS7
