Sonny Styles, Kain Medrano at center of Commanders takeaway explosion

Dan Quinn has a takeaway board outside of his office at the Commanders training complex highlighting defenders creating turnovers.   It was, as Washington’s head coach put it, “devastatingly empty.”   He’ll have some big plays to put on the board after Sunday’s 33-31 victory over the Seattle Seahawks. After failing to take the ball away […]

NFL Week 3 winners, losers: Commanders spring season’s biggest upset, Drake Maye’s miserable start continues

Getty Images Conventional wisdom suggests the Houston Texans were among the biggest losers from Week 3 of the 2026 NFL season. When teams lose divisional games to drop to 0-3, there are generally not many redeeming factors to generate optimism for the rest of the year. But maybe the Texans have the league right where they want it. This team lost its first three games a season ago and managed to roll into the AFC divisional round, after all. Instead, a couple of offensive coordinators stand in ...

NFL Week 3 Overreactions: Maye’s Turnover Trouble & Lawrence MVP Hope

Imagn Images By Week 3, we should be figuring out the NFL landscape, right? Apparently not. The Commanders, without Jayden Daniels, beat the Seahawks 33-31. The Browns beat the Panthers 21-18. The Steelers’ offense exploded in a 30-27 win over the Bengals, one week after we were singing the praises of the Cincinnati defense and lambasting Pittsburgh’s inept offense. Now? We have plenty to reconsider and plenty to question. But some beliefs have grown stronger, too. Let’s get into some overreac...

Winners and Losers from a disappointing Seahawks loss to the Commanders

Well, the Seattle Seahawks weren’t going to win every game. They were also going to inevitably lose to a bad team, and to suggest Mike Macdonald would be immune to this would smack of arrogance. Almost every contending team, including teams coached by all-time greats over the years, manage to throw up a clunker at […]

Rob Gronkowski ‘loved’ Tom Brady dropping an ‘oh sh*t’ on air: ‘Fans don’t want fabrication’

Rob Gronkowski doesn’t think Tom Brady has anything to apologize for. In speaking with Front Office Sports this week, the former Patriots and Buccaneers tight end said he “loved” Brady’s unvarnished reaction to Jayden Daniels’ gruesome injury during Fox’s broadcast of the Cowboys’ 37-20 win over the Commanders last Sunday. “I mean, I loved it,”…

And the Seahawks didn’t see their 12-game winning streak come to an end because they couldn’t move the ball, or because the defense wasn’t getting stops.

Rapid Reaction: Seahawks Sunk by Turnovers, Stunned by Commanders in 33-31 Defeat

Outscored by 21 points off turnovers, including a killer pick-six thrown by Sam Darnold to Kain Medrano late in the fourth quarter, the Seattle Seahawks fell victim to the underdog Washington Commanders in a stunning 33-31 defeat to lose for the first time since last November. Playing in his first game since the opener, Darnold threw for 379 yards with four touchdown passes, including a pair of scoring tosses to Jaxon Smith-Njigba.

Seahawks-Commanders score: Turnover woes doom Seahawks to stunning loss

The Seattle Seahawks (2-1), for whatever reason, cannot solve Marcus Mariota regardless of which team he’s playing for.

Key takeaways from Washington Commanders Week 3 win over Seattle Seahawks

BOX SCORE News has been kind to the Washington Commanders in the aftermath of Jayden Daniels’ dislocated left elbow.

Then came a more definitive timeline, with NFL Network reporting that Daniels could be back […]

Commanders LB Leo Chenal carted off on backboard after sustaining neck injury

In a scary moment, Washington Commanders linebacker Leo Chenal was carted off of the field in Sunday’s game against the Seattle Seahawks. The Commanders later ruled him out with a neck injury. Chenal appeared to take a knee to the head during the second quarter, leading to him going down. He was tended to by staff for a while, before being loaded onto a backboard and carted off into the locker room. The entire team gathered around him while he was on the ground. As Chenal was taken into the lo...

Commanders LB Leo Chenal Ruled Out With Neck Injury

Commanders The Commanders officially ruled out LB Leo Chenal after he was taken off the field with a neck injury on Sunday. Chenal, 25, was a third-round pick by the Chiefs in the 2022 NFL Draft out of Wisconsin. He just finished a four-year, $5,044,904 rookie deal and made a base salary of $3,356,000 in 2025.

Halftime Observations: Seahawks Dogged by Mistakes, Trail 17-10 to Commanders

Here are three quick takeaways from a mostly sloppy first half in Landover: 1. Looking healthy and moving well, Darnold started to find a rhythm late in the first quarter as a facilitator. Retu...
