The Washington Commanders may have left Los Angeles with a win, powered by a breakout performance for Jacory Croskey-Merritt and steady play from Luke McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel Sr. Still, their ongoing road issues remain a concern beneath the surface.
What's often overlooked in the excitement of last week's win, where the Commanders scored 27 unanswered points, is that the team once again got off to a slow start on the road.
After the loss to the Atlanta Falcons, head coach Dan Quinn said the team needed to work on getting the offense rolling faster on the road and being better at converting on third downs.
