Are the commanders worn out and tired?

Commanders They won’t be able to say goodbye until December 8th.

Two weeks ago, the Commanders were defeated by scores of 7-2 and 2-0 in NFC East divisional games. They were up 7-4 today, led both of their last two games in the second half, but lost both games in regulation.

Jayden Daniels looks tired and lacks the same energy. The offense actually only scored ten points until that final possession; At the time, every Commanders fan noticed that the Eagles were playing with less intensity, just trying to keep everything in front of them, chew up more time and finish the game quicker.

Daniels played so well early in the season that we forgot he was a rookie. So he gets to experience his first NFL season. He missed some open shots on Thursday that he hadn’t missed earlier in the season. But we have seen in the last two games that he looks much more human.

Suddenly Kliff Kingsbury’s offense slowed down significantly and scored fewer goals. But the Eagles are still very talented defensively. How much of what happened in the Commanders’ offense could be due to the fact that 11 games were filmed that are now closely watched by opposing coaches in the NFL?

The offense didn’t come easy on Thursday. He struggled throughout the match. Did you notice that with Washington trailing 12-10, the Eagles’ defense suddenly made the Commanders’ offense look very weak?

• 2nd and 1 at the Eagles 25. Brian Robinson gets zero yards on the carry.

• 3rd and 1 at the Eagles 25. Brian Robinson loses one yard.

• On 4th and 2 the entire game was a mess with missed snaps, missed blocks and a hard hit on Daniels who had nowhere to go.

What happens now?

Some of this is that the last two teams have been better than most opponents this season.

Some of them are that Daniels was injured, beaten, and needed rest.

So keep it in perspective: Have you forgotten that Washington hasn’t won the regular season since Kirk Cousins ​​started the 2015 and 2016 seasons?
