The Washington Commanders had a frustrating Week 9 performance and result, falling to 2-5-1 after a loss to the Los Angeles Rams at Northwest Stadium.
This was a winnable game. It may not have looked that way coming in, but the Commanders had plenty of chances to pull away from the Rams. They didn't take them, and Los Angeles' stars took over down the stretch to pile more misery on head coach Dan Quinn.
The Commanders have no time to wallow in self-pity. They are on a short week before clashing with the New York Giants on Thursday Night Football.
