The Washington Commanders are tied for No. 1 in the NFL in turnover differential at +6 and yet are 1-4-1 with a point differential of -40. It takes a special kind of team to have a turnover differential that good and a record and a point differential that bad.

The comeback was nice, but the reality is that Washington over its last 18 regular-season games now is 3-14-1 with a point differential of -168. This team is so far from what it should be in Season No. 3 of the Adam Peters/Dan Quinn regime. Unacceptable and inexcusable.

When is the last time Washington had a head coach who was a truly great in-game tactician? Someone who you felt from schematic and game-management standpoints was consistently better than opposing head coaches? Has been forever. Was Joe Gibbs from 1981-1992 the last time? Brutal.

Episode 1,429 - Dan Quinn, David Blough & Jayden Daniels all deserve major blame for the final play. But Quinn's tenure as Washington head coach ended with this game. When he'll actually get fired, who knows. But his tenure effectively ended with this game.the-al-galdi-podcast-8a6318b…

A horrendous tie that feels like a horrendous loss. The kind of result in the kind of season that leads to people being fired.
