Three turnovers delivered the win, but unless there is a dramatic change in the personality of this Commanders defense, this is not a unit that has shown the ability to become a turnover machine under Voodoo Jack.
That leaves the defensive coordinator’s defensive schemes to stop their opponents, and that’s not promising.
I call Del Rio “Voodoo Jack” because when he was running wild on social media during his Jan. 6 “dust-up days,” he was touting a doctor promoted by President Trump as a voice for COVID-19 treatment who had claimed alien DNA was being used in medical treatments.“I feel like he’s Simple Jack,” Gruden told my podcast co-host, Kevin Sheehan, on the Kevin Sheehan Show. “He doesn’t do a whole lot defensively. They play limited coverages/fronts and expect their players to be in the right places.
That’s one thing Sam Howell doesn’t do — throw to the other team, save for the Buffalo Bills’ 37-3 disaster and his four interceptions (he only has two more in five other games. He finds his receivers and gets them the ball — 14 of 23 for 151 yards, three touchdowns and no interceptions. He is proving to be a legitimate NFL starting quarterback — if he can survive.
Defensively, the Commanders continue to be an underachieving, disappointing unit that seems lost without gifts like they received Sunday in Atlanta. Fortunately for Washington, they play a New York Giants team next week that likes gift-giving, right behind Washington in handing over the ball.
