Eric Bieniemy faces an early season challenge with offensive struggles

The trend developing for the Washington Commanders is not good nor sustainable. Sam Howell has firmly established a reputation as a quarterback who consistently invites too much pressure and takes unnecessary sacks. The offense generally has an unfavorable run-pass imbalance to Howell and the offensive line.

NFL record for sacks taken in a season is 76, set by David Carr. For the Texans in 2002, their first year in the NFL.#Commanders Sam Howell has somehow taken 19 sacks in three games this year, putting him on pace to take 107.
