This season started with the Washington Commanders harboring lofty ambitions to reach the Super Bowl. Head coach Dan Quinn spearheaded an epic renaissance in 2024, and some ultra-aggressive moves throughout the offseason only raised expectations further.
Fans were incredibly optimistic. Everything was seemingly in place. What followed over the first 11 weeks of the campaign was nothing short of catastrophic.
Instead of being among the playoff challengers, the Commanderfs are 3-8. They have lost six games in a row, and injuries have decimated the squad to an incomprehensible level. Some in the media saw regression coming a mile away, but very few (if any) thought it would be this drastic.
