The Washington Commanders came close to winning their second consecutive game Sunday, but a defensive collapse prevented Washington from defeating the Seattle Seahawks and moving to 5-5.
Quarterback Sam Howell was phenomenal again, completing 29 of 44 passes for 312 yards and three touchdowns. Howell did not throw an interception; however, he did fumble on a scramble trying to pick up extra yards.
While Howell and running back Brian Robinson Jr. led the offense, the defense was atrocious, allowing 469 total yards. The Seahawks would get the ball back with just over 50 seconds remaining and quickly moved down the field to put kicker Jason Myers in position for the game-winning field goal.
Washington’s defense was on the field for 81 snaps. Let’s examine this week’s snap distribution for the Commanders offense and defense.
