Frankie Luvu led the Washington Commanders to a dominant victory over the Cleveland Browns with a stellar defensive performance, recording two sacks, sharing another sack, and recovering a fumble. Despite the success, Luvu emphasized that there is still room for improvement and the defense is just getting started. The Commanders have now won four consecutive games, bringing their record to 4-1.
The defense delivered a standout performance against the Browns, limiting them to just 149 yards through three quarters. Washington’s defense had the worst third-down defense in the NFL through the first four weeks of the season but held Cleveland to 0 for 12 on third down with Watson in the game. The Commanders’ offense, led by rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels, is also finding success, surpassing 400 yards in four of their five games.
Despite the success, there are areas that need improvement, including red zone play on offense. Daniels has shown promise but still has some rookie moments. Veteran tight end Zach Ertz has not been as productive as expected.
Looking ahead, the Commanders are focused on their upcoming matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The Ravens are favored to win, and Washington’s defense will face a tough test against Lamar Jackson and the Baltimore offense.
Overall, the Commanders are on a winning streak and showing signs of improvement on both sides of the ball. The team is looking to build on their success and continue to make strides as the season progresses.
