The Washington Commanders are 4-9 heading into their bye week with nothing on their minds but the end of the season after Sunday’s 45-15 loss to the Miami Dolphins.
Washington was dominated from start to finish on both sides of the ball. The Commanders either punted or turned the ball over on their first four possessions, allowing the Dolphins to quickly jump out to a 17-0 lead. Washington scored to cut the lead to 17-7, but that was as close as it would get for the rest of the way.
It was the first game for head coach Ron Rivera as the defensive play-caller after firing defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio last week. The results remained the same. According to Pro Football Focus, Washington’s run defense and coverage grades from the last two games are its worst of the season.
There are still four games remaining after the bye.
It’s time to review PFF’s best and worst from Washington’s Week 13 game. Here are the grades.
