What a DIRTY hit on #Commanders QB Sam Howell, was it worth an ejection?

Can we re-visit the 1st down that they called 4th & 1, reviewed and stuck with the call?#HTTC

Antonio Gibson on the 3rd-and-11 in the 4th: “I definitely thought I got the first down. But it’s their call, so at the end of the day, that’s what happens.”
Ruling, which was upheld on review, was that he was short. pic.twitter.com/uTH3vzbwsi

That penalty on Bates was absolute BS.

That’s never offensive pass interference on John Bates

The Commanders dodged a bullet on a ground ball snap today. This is a thing. They have to figure it out quick. It’ll cost them dearly soon if not. Tress Way plays hero again. He’s an infielder taking ground balls at this point. pic.twitter.com/OG9mKokECo

Curious drive there for Rivera/ Bieniemy. #Commanders got the ball at the AZ 21 and ran three times to then kick a FG. They’re only ahead 4. Would’ve been a good time to go for the jugular. Played it VERY safe. Banking on defense winning it here.

Washington was fortunate to win today losing the TO battle. Since 2020, Washington is now 5-20 when having a negative turnover margin for a game.

Howell said he took too many sacks, tried to do too much in the pocket and could have thrown the ball away a lot more

What I love about Sam Howell is the man is probably at home right now mad as hell looking at video critiquing himself. He will get better. #HTTC

That the #Commanders won matters much more than how they won, especially in Week 1. The key is where Washington is at in a month, two months, three months, etc., not necessarily now. September is for stacking wins. October-January is about truly judging who & what a team is.

RG3: “There’s a reason that a lot of alumni stayed away and we don’t have to talk about that anymore. But now it’s a fresh start. And to be able to come here today and see the reaction from the fans and talk to you guys again it feels like just really grateful to be back.”

Champ Bailey in the house. Said the timing was never right to return until now.
Turns out he and the player he was traded for, Clinton Portis, rode over to the stadium together and will both be at the Commanders-Broncos game for Week 2. pic.twitter.com/ZsMTn4Mejc

Howell sacked 6 times. Cards doing a good job dropping 7 into coverage and taking away initial read. Protection then breaks down. Bad combo.
— John Keim (@john_keim) September 10, 2023
The Commanders offensive line performance was unimpressive today but it’s worth noting that they will be playing a Broncos pass rush that didn’t have a single sack and only one TFL against the Raiders #HTTC

It is not news that Kyle Shanahan and the 49ers tried to trade a first round pick for Kirk Cousins. But these details feel new. The top three pick from the 2017 draft? This is from @TheAthletic.

In the first game for #Commanders owner Josh Harris, there will be more than half-price hot dogs and increased usage of Legends Plaza:
— Legends like Sonny Jurgenson and Champ Bailey, plus celebs like Kevin Durant and Joel Embiid, will be there.
— There was a $40M investment…— Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) September 10, 2023

When Josh Harris talked about “ingress and egress” at the stadium, he actually did something about it: The team collaborated with PGC police & the MD State Highway and MDOT to temporarily close the right lane of I-495 S at the Arena Dr. interchange so fans in Lots F & G can get…

Oh, forgot to mention: Washington remains undefeated under Josh Harris.
