The Washington Commanders continued their impressive start to the season with a 42-14 victory over the Arizona Cardinals. After a rebuilding offseason with a new head coach, offensive coordinator, and a rookie quarterback at the helm, Washington has silenced the skeptics, showing they’re more than just a team in transition.
Commanders’ rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels led the offense with poise , while the defense held the Cardinals scoreless from early in the first quarter until late in the third. The victory solidified Washington’s spot atop the NFC East, improving to 3-1.
Offensive tackle Andrew Wylie , a key part of the Commanders’ resurgent offense, expressed his excitement following the game.
“This is the most fun I’ve ever had,” Wylie said. “We’re just having a blast up front. We got the most athletic people in space, seeing him [Jayden Daniels] trot in the end zone is beautiful.”
Wylie’s sentiments echo the confidence radiating throughout the Commanders locker room.
