Washington Commanders
DST - Washington Commanders
Availability
The Washington Commanders' D/ST sacked Vikings QB JJ McCarthy four times in the Commanders' 31-0 loss.
Fantasy Impact
The Commanders struggled mightily against a suddenly operational Vikings offense. JJ McCarthy was able to get things done and move the Minnesota offense almost at will in this game. They will look to put up a better showing against the Giants next week.
The Commanders' D/ST logged one sack and one interception while allowing 27 points in Sunday's overtime loss to the Denver Broncos.
Fantasy Impact
Washington's defense didn't play all that well on Sunday night. They allowed Denver to score 27 points, including a touchdown in overtime that helped the Broncos to seal the win. This unit has a great matchup coming up against the Vikings in Week 14, however, and could be worth starting in that game.
The Commanders D/ST allowed 171 passing yards, 169 rushing yards, and 16 points in the 16-13 loss to Miami.
Fantasy Impact
The Commanders' defense tallied three sacks, but failed to force a turnover in the loss. The running defense struggled to stop De'Veon Achane and Ollie Gordon, with both running backs averaging at least 5.0 yards per carry. The Commanders will head to their bye in Week 12.
The Commanders D/ST failed to record a sack or force a turnover in a 44-22 loss to the Lions in Week 10.
Fantasy Impact
The unit had no answers against a physical Detroit offense, allowing two or more touchdowns on the ground and through the air to go along with 546 offensive yards in the loss. The unit will be difficult to trust for fantasy managers despite a more favorable matchup against the Miami Dolphins in Week 11.
The Commanders D/ST allowed 38 points on 418 total yards with one interception on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
Sam Darnold got whatever he wanted in the first half as he completed all 15 of his passes with four touchdowns in a 31 point half. The Seahawks went conservative in the second half. The Commanders defense remains well off the fantasy radar moving forward.
