Oh dear. This is truly shocking from the Commanders tonight.


They pushed Philadelphia all the way last week and only lost in overtime. Toe to toe the whole game.

This week, against the 0-4 Bears, yup, the 0-4 Bears, they are 3-27 down at half time.

Really , really awful. Can't stop the run, can't stop the pass and the Bears are cutting through them like butter.

DJ Moore has 137 yards receiving in the first half alone. Herbert has 76 yards rushing and Justin Fields has thrown 3 touchdowns already

The Bears are averaging 8 yards per play and have 122 yards total in rushing.

Washington have 13.

And this is only the first half!!

What the hell has gone wrong?

Wish I hadn't stayed up for it now.

Some correspondent on Twitter has just said that's the loudest boos he's ever heard at halftime for Washington.

Haven't Chicago just lost 14 straight games?

This is really, really shocking.

Browns fan myself but have several friends who follow Washington, will be a tough loss indeed if they don't come back.

Giving it their best shot second half. Just 10 points in it now and they have been able to shut the Chicago game down a lot more efficiently.

Just missed a 43 yard field goal that would have brought the Commanders within 7 points.

Think that might be it now. Just 4:40 left and the ball with Chicago.

Need the stop and quickly.

Game over.

DJ Moore now ridiculously has 230 yards receiving and 3 touchdowns.

Some very poor defensive work it has to be said.

An awful night at Fed Ex field.

Been a lot of average football this season but then along comes a belter like Cowboys & Eagles last night. Stars were the O&D lines on both sides - a level way beyond anyone else this season.

Not a fan of either team, not sure why as both are top level this year. Eagles look like they can grind results out against everyone, will take some stopping this season

ps Stroud is having an amazing rookie season. Amazing stats Sunday inc a 46 second drive to get winning TD. Cool head on a young lad

3 Late games settled by last second field goals. That's entertainment!!

Another game winning drive to beat Burrows and the Bengals.350+ yards. Get him a top receiver and watch out.

Yeah, unbelievable. What a job DeMeco Ryan’s doing as well !

Saints laid another turd first half (following them and City this season is tough !). Felt for Otis, thought Washington were going to do it

Some great endings though as you say !

Was hoping Vikings would tank for the draft when Kirk got hurt - to find his replacement for the future. But Dobbs has been electric - not sure about his arm but his mobility has been an eye opener for Vikings fans used to a static Kirk. Plus Dobbs doing this without receivers 1&2 - JJ and now Osborne have been out. Can see them possibly giving Dobbs a contract - not that expensive and they need money to extend the likes of JJ, Darrisaw and maybe try and keep Hunter.

Washington still determined to get a promising young QB maimed with that awful O line.

I thought Dobbs had looked decent for Cardinals. Will be interesting to see if he can keep it up…he could end up being a bargain replacement for cousins if he can consistently. Maybe O’Connell, who’s looking a very good young coach, can bring the best out in him though. With JJ and Addison in tandem you’ll be dangerous !
