Some doubts were creeping around the media about the Washington Commanders. A humbling loss to the Green Bay Packers came with criticism, with many suggesting last season's heroics were a flash in the pan. Not for the first time under head coach Dan Quinn, they produced the correct response.
Washington's game against the Las Vegas Raiders was a one-sided affair. The Commanders were in complete control throughout, playing sound complementary football and making things extremely difficult for the AFC West club to generate any momentum. It was a professional performance, especially considering the injury problems Quinn had to navigate beforehand.
