Adam Peters gained a lot of good graces among Washington Commanders fans after spearheading a remarkable franchise rejuvenation in 2024. But after things went horribly wrong this time around, pressure is inevitably growing.
Nobody is calling for Peters' head; far from it. Fans remain confident that Washington has the right man in charge of the football operation. At the same time, they also know that a complete rethink of the team's strategy is required for a more sustainable future.
Peters was correct to push his chips into the middle. There is a desperate need to maximize quarterback Jayden Daniels' rookie contract before it potentially gets much more expensive to keep him around.
