The Washington Commanders have to make big moves as soon as possible if they want to compete in the NFC East. The division is going to be an uphill battle with the Philadelphia Eagles as Super Bowl favorites and solid rosters like the ones of Cowboys and Giants.

In 2022, Washington were 8-8-1 and missed the playoffs for a second consecutive year. The quarterback controversy just kept going after the Carson Wentz’ experiment failed.
