When you are down 21-3 in an NFL game, there is lots of blame to go around. When you come back and win the game, there are many heroes. That’s the case for the Washington Commanders, who came from behind to defeat the Denver Broncos, 35-33, in Week 2 action.
As the Commanders fell behind 21-3, the defense was being beaten for big plays. Quarterback Sam Howell was holding the ball too long, and the offensive line was getting pounded like a drum.
All is true.
However, the Commanders came back, and it was a total team effort. We name our studs and duds from the win.
