This is nuts. I am not as much as a homer as some as to this operation but I think its good and with Jayden they have a shot at a SB, even this year. I do understand all the crapping on this team from the national media in just about every form -- mock draft community, anayltics, writers, etc. I saw a tweet today that some dude from PFF ranked this o line as the worst in the NFL. Sharp has the RBs as the worst in the NFL. On and on and on.

Washington Commanders
Stefon Diggs is now a Commander, which is cool, but Washington's season truly hinges on
Jayden Daniels returning fully healthy and finding a way to stay on the field. That, and substantial improvement from the defense, a unit that has been revamped with a large influx of veteran additions after finishing dead last in yards allowed in 2025. This is the year in which Dan Quinn must prove he has strong coaching chops -- or else. It's also the season in which Daniels must prove he's more durable than he was in 2025, a task that undoubtedly becomes more challenging after losing left tackle
Laremy Tunsil to a torn triceps for what will be
a significant portion of the season, if not all of it. There's reason to be hopeful, but it feels increasingly as if the Commanders have to thread the needle to find success in 2026.
