How to spot a great leader/coach in the NFL?

HOW HARD DO THEY RUN TO THE FOOTBALL?@LukeKuechly pic.twitter.com/2ignptKiYu

A rookie quarterback and first-year HC have only made the playoffs five times in NFL history.

Still, there is a lot of football left, but the #Commanders‘ rapid ascension is unbelievably impressive in this context. #RaiseHail pic.twitter.com/8z8c9W6pTw

Commanders fans, how does it feel to be #2 in the NFC rn? https://t.co/omw8nbHdb1

The highest-graded Commanders in Week 9 vs the Giants:

Jayden Daniels – 88.2
Noah Brown – 79.0
Bobby Wagner – 78.9
Dorance Armstrong – 78.8
Austin Ekeler – 78.7 pic.twitter.com/RAUaoFtj4H

— PFF WAS Commanders (@PFF_Washington) November 4, 2024

Washington has an NFL-high 15 rushing touchdowns this season. That’s also one more than they had all of 2023.

— John Keim (@john_keim) November 4, 2024

Washington is averaging 42.5 yards per offensive drive, the highest average for any offense in Weeks 1-9 this millennium.@TruMediaSports

— Austin Gayle (@austingayle_) November 4, 2024

According to NFL Next Gen, the #Giants defense generated only five team pressures and zero sacks on 25 dropbacks (20.0% pressure rate), despite blitzing on 60.0% of dropbacks, the unit’s highest blitz rate in a game this season.

Washington has their signal-caller of the future in Jayden Daniels, but they also found their franchise LT Brandon Coleman in the ‘24 class.

Heck of a day against Brian Burns and co in what was his largest workload (62 snaps) so far this fall pic.twitter.com/B9XtUQjQ9i

Every Brandon Coleman snap in Week 9

First time Coleman played a full game and I would say he did a pretty good job especially against Brian Burns in pass pro #RaiseHail pic.twitter.com/Or9YxpthXd

— Mason Kinnahan (@Mason_Kinnahan) November 4, 2024

In Brandon Coleman’s FIRST full start vs Brian Burns he allowed ZERO pressures (per @The33rdTeamFB )

A guy who doesn’t get nearly enough credit for the Washington Commanders resurgence is Noah Brown.

Consistent +1 blocker in the Run Game & reliable receiver in the Pass Game.

It’s guys like him who make your offense go! pic.twitter.com/LMuuseuwju

— Coach Dan Casey (@CoachDanCasey) November 4, 2024

I’ve never seen a guy get so consistently unlucky when he’s wide open.

Something always happens that prevents him from getting the ball when he’s wide open. Pressure gets to Jayden, someone’s open earlier in the progression, etc. https://t.co/P8bqyryH8N

In a season where things look and feel different for the Commanders, there’s this: in 2023, WAS trailed for a combined 227:38 in Weeks 1-9. In 2024, they’ve trailed 118:27 in that same span. Almost all of that, 90:10 in fact, came in Week 1 and 6

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 4, 2024

Another sign of the times: Washington trailed for a whole game in Weeks 3 and 5 in 2023. This year, they haven’t faced a deficit in three games, including yesterday against the Giants

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 4, 2024

In four of the last five games, Washington has been in control of game from almost start to finish. They trailed for :25 of game time against the Bears at the end

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 4, 2024

What’s really good is you can see how the Commanders got more comfortable each week at the beginning of the season. They trailed for 56:34 in Week 1, 16:59 in Week 2, 6:12 in Week 3 and 4:41 in Week 4. Since then, WAS has largely set the tone for its opponents

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 4, 2024

A big reason for this is the marriage of WAS being extremely effective at scoring points in the first quarter and exceptional at keeping opponents out of the end zone. In the last 3 games, WAS is tied with SF with 0 points allowed in the 1st quarter. The OFF is 3rd with 7.7

— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 4, 2024

Great line from @SeanUnfiltered on Jayden Daniels: “Accuracy? You either got it or you don’t. With this guy he can complete 65 percent blindfolded. This is not by chance.”

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 4, 2024

Jayden Daniels’ two best throws yesterday. In both instances, he targeted covered receivers and thew them open with perfect ball placement. pic.twitter.com/0ZXgOyb6KO

Following the three offensive firings last night, the Raiders are considering bringing on veteran NFL coach Norv Turner in some role with the offense, source says. Scott Turner, his son, remains the leading candidate to be offensive coordinator.

“The Saints have gotten some calls but I don’t think it’s gonna be a fire sale..

The Saints are such a mess. About $60M over the cap next year. They only have two players who will save more than $3M if cut and 6 if increased to $2M. They need a few players to retire and Derek Carr to agree to help them out.
