Thankfully, there are only two games remaining for the Washington Commanders in the 2023 NFL season. Unfortunately for Washington, those games are against two of the NFL’s best teams.
On Sunday, Washington hosts an angry San Francisco 49ers, who are coming off a loss to the Baltimore Ravens on Monday Night Football. Not only does San Francisco need to win to keep its hopes alive for home-field advantage in the NFC playoffs, it’s also the return to Washington for left tackle Trent Williams and defensive end Chase Young.
Even if the Commanders are terrible and expected to lose, don’t you think this game means a bit more to Williams and Young?
Washington has lost six in a row, made a quarterback change last week that may not even happen, and is an absolute mess in the final weeks of head coach Ron Rivera.
Anyway, onto our picks.
Here are our staff picks for the Commanders and 49ers.
