The Taylor Heinicke experience will continue for at least another week for the Washington Commanders.

Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz has reportedly been cleared to begin throwing as he rehabs from injury, per John Keim. However, he has not yet been cleared to return to practice.

However you look at it, the Philadelphia Eagles put up their worst game of the season in their Week 10 defeat at the hands of the Washington Commanders. Sloppy ball control, a lack of offensive urgency, and a defense that failed to corral the few above-average pieces that the Commanders doomed Philly from the start. […]

The Washington Commanders are fresh off their biggest win of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Taylor Heinicke is stabilizing the Washington Commanders one game at a time.

The Philadelphia Eagles’ undefeated run was bound to end sooner or later, but sure enough, no one would have thought it would come at the hands of the Washington Commanders.

The Washington Commanders have bad intentions Monday, as they look locked in on their mission to become the first team to take down Jalen Hurts and the Philadelphia Eagles this 2022 NFL season.

In the NFL, fortune favors the bold. Sure, teams can win games by dinking and dunking their way up and down a field in a slow matriculation that ticks time off of the clocks and slowly puts points on the board, but nothing’s more entertaining than a big 50-yard completion down the field for a […]
