The Washington Commanders lost 20-13 at home to the Los Angeles Rams, a 5-4 team, in Week 9. The defeat ended a winning streak that began only a week earlier with a 27-10 home win over the Eagles. Both of their wins this season have come at home, where the Commanders are now 2-3.
Jayden Daniels kept the Commanders close, going 24 of 35 for 269 yards with 1 TD and 0 INT. Van Jefferson was his scoring target, finishing with 5 catches for 58 receiving yards and 1 TD. The Rams held the offense to 13 points, the same total it scored in the Week 4 loss to the Colts.
At 2-5-1, the Commanders sit third in the NFC East, behind the Giants at 5-2-1 and the Cowboys at 3-5 but ahead of the Eagles at 2-7. They rank 14th in the NFC and hold no seed today. Form is poor: 1 win, 1 tie and 3 losses across the last 5 games.
Ball security is the clear strength, with 0.6 turnovers per game ranking 2nd of 32. Third downs are the problem: a 31.1 percent conversion rate ranks 32nd of 32. On offense, Daniels has 976 passing yards. Sonny Styles paces the defense with 80 tackles, and Odafe Oweh has 4.0 sacks.
The next 3 games look hard: the Commanders visit the Giants, who lead the NFC East, then host the 6-2 Bengals before a trip to the 3-5 Cardinals. Still in the playoff race, they can close on the division lead at the Giants. They are 0-3 on the road, and 2 of these games are away.
