The Washington Commanders were off in Week 12, providing sweet relief for fans after a catastrophic start to the season.
In the meantime, the rest of the NFL was in action. This represented a prime opportunity for Commanders fans to wallow even further in self-pity over their flourishing rejects. This was especially apparent in a Sunday Night Football matchup in which the Los Angeles Rams dominated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Kamren Curl, who the Commanders never should have let walk, and Emmanuel Forbes Jr., who has been an improbable redemption story, have been key contributors for a Los Angeles team that's 9-2 and might be the Super Bowl favorite.
