Washington Commanders vs Chicago Bears Game Preview

Why Washington Commanders Will Win

You ready for Carson Wentz to have a game?

If you want what the sports version of being thrown under the bus looks like, it’s Washington head coach Ron Rivera on his starting quarterback after the 21-17 loss to Tennessee.

The offense wasn’t bad. Wentz threw for 359 yards but threw a tough pick and couldn’t lead the team late.
