Looking Back At The Washington Commanders 2022 NFL Season

by

It wasn’t a losing season, but it wasn’t a winning one either. It was a very mixed bag for the Washington Commanders in 2022. Despite an auspicious beginning, they were in the playoff hunt until the second last game of the season against the Cleveland Browns – a 24-10 defeat that dashed any hopes of a playoff game.

Who could forget the infamous comment from Head Coach Ron Rivera following the Browns loss?

“We can be eliminated?”

After the first game, it looked like maybe the Carson Wentz could work.

That didn’t last long.

Here’s a look at the entire season of events:

Draft Primer: Everything A Commanders Fan Needs To Know For the Draft

by

The NFL Draft has a rich history dating back to 1936 when the first draft was held at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Philadelphia. At that time, it was a relatively informal affair with teams taking turns selecting players for nine rounds. Over the years, the draft has evolved and grown significantly in importance into something that attracts millions of viewers each year.

The Draft itself has become the subject of incredible amounts of analysis and speculation for both experts and fans alike. It seems that every NFL fan now weighs in on what players will be selected and where, and how they might impact their team.

Here is some information on this year’s festivities:

Heinicke And Wentz Make Way For Brissett In Commanders Quarterback Juggle

by

The Washington Commanders’ 2023 quarterback room will look very different than it did last year; regardless of wether or not second-year man Sam Howell gets the nod as the starter. After losing Taylor Heinicke and Carson Wentz in free agency, the Commanders got their veteran quarterback on Wednesday when they signed Jacoby Brissett.

Brissett will reportedly sign a one year deal worth up to $10 Million, that includes $8 million in guaranteed money.

What To Know About The Commanders’ Offseason

by

The fourth summer that Ron Rivera has spent with Washington may be his most difficult one yet. The Commanders’ head coach is still managing chaos, including the possible tectonic shift of an organization sale this year, and he is still without a clear quarterback solution. Additionally, after firing offensive coordinator Scott Turner, Rivera was forced to make arguably the biggest coaching hire of his career in Eric Bieniemy.

For NFL betting fans picking their best bets of the day, the Commanders certainly provided some memorable performances, most notably against Green Bay, Philadelphia, and Dallas, but bettors may not be rushing to wager on Washington for the NFC East Division next season.

According to Rivera, the potential sale won’t have an impact on the front office’s capacity to assemble the team. In theory, the Commanders have enough salary cap room and a solid pick to strengthen the roster. So, what should we look out for?

Commanders Vs Eagles: Back From Wentz He Came

by

For Washington Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz, Sunday will be a homecoming of sorts. He will face the Philadelphia Eagles for the very first time. The Eagles drafted him with the second overall pick in 2016.

It’s a big game for Washington. It might feel like an even bigger game to Wentz.

After all, the Eagles are now quarterbacked by Jalen Hurts – the man who bumped Wentz from his starting position in 2020. Not only that, Hurts is having a blinder of a start to the season.

Today’s wallpaper is Carson Wentz, who despite a lot of bad-mouthing in the off-season, has played pretty well so far. It took him a half to get going on Sunday but eventually he put in a pretty solid performance. It wasn’t enough to get past Detroit, but it wasn’t really on Carson.

He seems like a natural #WallpaperWednesday selection being that in Week 3, he will go against his former team, the Philadelphia Eagles.
