It’s almost time for Week 13 of the NFL season, and the Washington Commanders continue to lose.
Washington lost twice in four days last week to drop to 4-8 on the season. The Commanders’ 45-10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys cost defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio and secondary coach Brent Vieselmeyer their jobs on Friday. The firings weren’t totally unexpected, as Washington’s defense has severely underperformed in 2023 despite the significant investments on that side of the ball.
Quarterback Sam Howell had his moments last week but struggled with Dallas’ pressure in the second half. Things do not get any easier for the Commanders, who host the explosive Miami Dolphins in Week 13.
