Washington Commanders vs. Detroit Lions

Washington Commanders vs. Detroit Lions

By Jeremy T. Ballreich 

The Washington Commanders came to Ford Field to try and keep that win streak going. The Detroit Lions said, “Wait hold my beer!” 

The Goods:

The MASH Unit Oline did well making holes for the run game. And keeping Goff upright for the most part. 

D’Andre Swift is a beast. Coming through in key clutch moments throughout the game. Plus a Receiving TD. 

Amon-Ra St. Brown has another game with 8+ receptions. Add in his 2 Receiving TDs. That is why he IS the Sun God. 

Aidan Hutchinson in the first half was an absolute monster. 8 pressures, 3 sacks. Almost all in the 1st Half. 

Charles Harris with a sack safety, where he stripped the ball out. 

The first half the Dline kept pressuring Wentz and the PTSD kicked in forcing him to throw an INT to Will Harris? Your kidding me right? 

The bads:

TJ Hockenson, still having drop and run blocking issues. 3 drops with his 2 last week. That is 5 drops, and about 4 key missed blocks in the run game. But did make 1 catch. 

The 2nd half Dline, seemed unable to get a lot of pressure. But did well in run game. 

The Secondary was neither good or bad. Improved from last week. But sorely need Jerry Jacobs and AO in here healthy and quick.
