The Washington Commanders won an absolutely rollercoaster ride of a game against the Denver Broncos. While the Broncos fall to 0-2 on the season, we now rise to 2-0 on the season!
The episode begins with the reaction to the game - the emotional swings, the ups and downs, the heart and character that this team showed. What went well? What could have gone better?
The Commanders defense, after a very shaky start, settled down and played to their potential, sacking Russell Wilson 7 times and forcing 2 turnovers, 1 by Emmanuel Forbes and the other by Jamin Davis. We also highlight the impact that Chase Young had on the game. He marked his return with 1.5 sacks, notably meeting Montez Sweat at Russell Wilson simultaneously for his half sack.
How about Sam Howell? How about QB1 of YOUR Washington Commanders? In his first ever road start, he leads an offense to 35 points. He made numerous excellent throws, stayed medium despite being down 21-3, and played a huge part in winning this game for our Commanders.
How about the gameplan that Eric Bieniemy came up with? This is his first time out of the Andy Reid shadow, and he had something dialed up for his old AFC West foe in the Denver Broncos.
