Sunday’s season opener at home didn’t go quite as planned for Ron Rivera and company. Washington came out flat on defense, and that carried on throughout the game. The Chargers converted 27 first downs in the game and were an amazing 14-19 on third down, while The Football Team was an abysmal 3-10.
That vaunted Washington defense... yeah, it allowed 424 yards on the afternoon.
Our “much improved” offense - scored a whopping 16 points and may have ended the season of Ryan Fitzpatrick.
Overall, this was a large team Dud!
Below are my Studs and Duds of the game followed by some notes.
