Overview

• Marcus Mariota, starting again for injured quarterback Jayden Daniels, passed for 62 yards and a touchdown in the first half.
• Washington played without Terry McLaurin, Noah Brown and John Bates after they were ruled out, while Jacory Croskey-Merritt was active and saw first-half carries.
• The Commanders went 0-for-4 on third down with only six first downs, and their lone extended drive ended in a Luke McCaffrey touchdown.
• Washington fumbled four times but recovered each one, with Jaylin Lane muffing two punts and Zach Ertz and Deebo Samuel also putting the ball on the ground.
• Outside of a 49-yard Chris Rodriguez Jr. run, non-Rodriguez rushes totaled just 10 yards on seven carries, facing an Atlanta pass defense rated top six by DVOA entering the game and playing without corner AJ Terrell.
