The Washington Commanders came out firing against the Jacksonville Jaguars, and rode a hot start to a 28-22 opening day victory. Washington scored on their first two possessions of the home game for the first time since 1991. That’s not a typo, they haven’t done it since George Herbert Walker Bush was President.
They also didn’t score on an opening drive last year, until Week 13.
The Commanders may not have been perfect, but they gave the Fed Ex crowd plenty to cheer about, and did enough to come away with the win.
Here are some of the positives and negatives from the game.
