Jonathan Allen is a big loss for the Commanders.
Next man up mentality though. Up next, Johnny Newton.
Johnny said, “I know it’s my time now. I don’t want no drop off just go in there and play the same level that he did.” pic.twitter.com/TEmWsDxITI

Will Commanders RB Brian Robinson Jr. be playing on Sunday vs. Carolina?
I asked BRob that question in the locker room today.
He said, “I felt good today. You know that’s a decision the coaches have to make…feel more and more like myself again.” pic.twitter.com/dpzdw0x2Ch

Panthers CB Jaycee Horn on Jayden Daniels:
“He’s a hell of a player…he real accurate, make throws on the run, he real fast. I think you know people underrate how fast he is, so he a good player”.

It’s amazing Washington is winning games despite its defense.
To say we need help in the secondary is an understatement!

Quan Martin = locker room leader
Washington head coach Dan Quinn has seen it.
I asked Quan about it, he said, “really just trying to put us in the best position to be successful. If it calls for me to be more vocal…then I’m going to do that.” pic.twitter.com/Agi2S4E4GJ

Commanders currently hold 9 picks in the 2025 NFL Draft, 4 in the Top 100. Washington is also in good financial shape with more than $25 million in cap space. If they want to get aggressive, they can, but that’s no sure thing. https://t.co/0rKJualsTS

These have been the five most common cornerbacks I’ve heard Commanders fans want Adam Peters to trade for at the deadline so I went ahead and compared them

Sunday will be a lot of fun for Commanders LB Frankie Luvu.
He’s facing his former team the Carolina Panthers.
Frankie said, “it’s going to be fun…going against the boys. We break bread with the boys out there, but when it’s go time, it’s go time.” pic.twitter.com/uURuATwWXr

Catching up with future Pro Football Hall of Famer and Commanders LB Bobby Wagner today.

This response is the biggest thing I don’t understand about Aaron….can be super charismatic, his swagger gives teammates the ultimate confidence BUT
why can’t he shoulder ALL the blame in the media and then get behind closed doors with Mike Williams or the whole offense or the… pic.twitter.com/JyEhoX1DVP

Was thinking the same. How in the world did Andrew Thomas finish that game? Unbelievable toughness. https://t.co/kJwby2EIwv

I actually did work for Jerry for a long time, and we had an impressive amount of leeway to be opinionated, critical & honest about the team & his decisions.
So the fact that he’s this upset at guys who don’t actually work for him … I dunno. Feels like tense times in Frisco. https://t.co/tQrrrvH4Mn

NFL scoring for the season is up to 44.9 points per game. The league and competition committee like that number to be around 45 points per game, so the offense-vs.-defense dynamic is better balanced recently after scoring dipped the previous two seasons and early this season.
— MarkMaske (@MarkMaske) October 16, 2024
About 40 percent of kickoffs were returned in the Week 6 games, bringing the return rate for the season to about 32 percent. NFL leaders believe the new kickoff format shows great promise, and they remain intent on considering offseason tweaks such as moving the touchback spot.
