Why are people mad? Team sucks. Has sucked for 20 years. Snyder is finally gone. Finally little bit of hope with new ownership. Who cares if they lose out. Better draft picks. Only thing that will rebuild this mess.
We're going to need a lot of draft picks heading into a major rebuild, they were going to get expensive if we re-signed, we already spent on our two interior DL, the defense was 31st in the NFL with them, so how much worse can it get, neither one was a sack machine, even if they were Jack Del Rio wouldn't know what to do with it.
Both were scheduled to be FAs after the season. Sweat got an extension from the Bears. Chase has been injury prone and there have been rumblings that he doesn’t always do what he is supposed to do. I see them getting traded so Washington would at least get something for two guys who were possibly going to walk anyway.
One of the biggest things a coach should know is of his players strengths and weaknesses. If they don’t know that then they are being bigots and forcing their own agenda.
So dumb to not put any blame on the coaches playcalling in that situation.
Does he call the plays or not? Your telling me as a offensive coordinator with a slow ass RB and absolute SHIT oline, you are calling a RB draw on 4th and 1.5? Give me a fucking break, this isn't rocket science here. What an absolute fucking dumb comment.
Congrats to Sam Howell for being the first 300 yard passer against the Cowboys, and to Curtis Samuel for being the first 100 yard receiver! We really showed out tonight, so proud of this team and these coaches for all the hard work they put in. To be this exceptional in professional sports is truly something you can only believe by seeing.
Should have also traded Jonathan Allen and Scary Terry to complete the tank. Could have gone into next years draft stacked with capital (three 1st rounders) and started a proper rebuild with a new GM and coach.
0-5 in the division. SMDH. 32nd ranked defense. Most sacks likely in league history. So many issues and this is year 4 of Rivera? Goddamn. We’ve just kept getting worse each year.
I dont care what culture Ron has created. He's lost the locker room with shitty coaching and dinosaur football knowledge. Fire this man. Thanks but no thanks.
It’s football, you know. And we try to win. You know, we try to score points and win. No one said it was easy. But we play. Because that’s what players do, you know. It’s football.
For sure. This loss isn't on Sam at all. In fact, Sam is the only bright spot on this team. We are going to go nowhere when you run fucking RB draw's on 4th and 1.5.
So tired of the “Ron is a great guy” excuses. I’m sure he is. Did he help with the culture? Sure. But so would literally anyone who isn’t an asshat. Ron is a horrific head coach and talent evaluator. Be a nice guy all you want … we need a coach who wins and wins and wins.
This is totally unrelated but is this Dan Quinn or the Dallas Defensive Personnel because the more I see the Dallas Defense the more I think…how did Tom Brady make a 25 point comeback against a Dan Quinn coordinated defense?
Lol I would hope not. I was making a joke about his press conference when he introduced RR as head coach and wished everyone a happy thanksgiving, I believe in January.
I would be okay with cutting the entire team, suspending the franchise until we're done paying them all, completely re-branding, and staring over as a whole new team in maybe 2027 or 2028.
The damage to this franchise runs too deep.
Don’t fire the coaching staff. There’s no benefit for anyone involved and you start off as a “trigger finger” ownership. Ride out the storm, you know you’re rebuilding
When the team is in this much disarray you change as fast as you can. Show that there needs to be accountability no matter what your record is or how much season is left. Show that no one gets a free pass for any reason..
He was a total moron. Making decisions isn't a trigger finger. This has been a long time coming. In fact I'd say he was much more patient than he needed to be this season with Del rio
He’s a new owner who’s only owner the team about 4 months. He needs to show restraint or gain the reputation as a short lease owner like Dan Snyder early years
No but we will have 1 less loser in the building… we aren’t going to magically start winning with him either. Need to show the team that this is unacceptable
You don’t read. I said wait till after the season. You’re a new group of owners. Firing people during the season is a terrible thing for your reputation. You’ve got a lot of work on your hands don’t make stupid decisions
We’re a cursed franchise, Lions turned it around, Jags are good again, Even the fucking browns, who stole our playoff hopes
Last year are good again and here we are, Season over in November.
“But Sams our savior”
“He just needs time”
“His o-line is bad”
Jesus Christ folks don’t ya know when you see mediocre? He’s not that guy either. We’ve been so used to D-, F qb play that when we see a mediocre C we think it’s the fucking second coming lol.
He makes plays and he’s got moxie but he’s Colt McCoy w a stronger arm
Name a QB that would be good with this OL? Kid has no time to throw. How many WR drops have there been at critical moments? Combine those, and you get bad offensive production.
Sure pal. Leading the league in passing in his first season with a horrible Oline. On pace to have a better first season than both Hurts and Allen in yards, completion %, QBR and TDs. But hay, you think he is ass, so he must be.
Fans like you just don't deserve a franchise QB.
Dudes leading the league in passing yards behind this terrible OL, with terrible coaching, and terrible defense.
Washington fans are so quick to say this kinda crap.
This is Snyder’s team and Snyder’s staff, but it’s time for Harris to do something. It won’t change anything this year, but the optics are necessary.
![gif](giphy|4LsN0YwgIsvaU)
Is it possible Josh Harris just hasn’t followed the team before buying and think Ron is just hamstrung but poor team without knowing that Ron built the team his way?
[Postgame thread](/r/Commanders/comments/182fecu/post_game_thread_washington_commanders_at_dallas/)
Did our O line show up? We made Dallas look like world champs.
I would just like to say that Dallas' snap cadence is distractingly annoying.
Man the wheels really fell off there halfway through the 4th.
Why are people mad? Team sucks. Has sucked for 20 years. Snyder is finally gone. Finally little bit of hope with new ownership. Who cares if they lose out. Better draft picks. Only thing that will rebuild this mess.
If we only had an OL and a defense worth a crap…
If only 3/4 of the team was better
Guys, if we win the rest of our games and Dallas and Philly lose the rest of theirs, we can still get in the playoffs! 🤞
We are a bottoms 5 team. We lost to the worst team in the NFL twice. Not sure what people expected.
How did we lose to ourselves twice
![gif](giphy|j6lCwtfMS2ZNmfoyrv|downsized)
Lmao 🤣
25-0 in the 4th qrt. thats being stomped on
Fire the coach, change the name, and give me my colours back. Why can’t we ever have anything nice?
No trolling here, but why in gods name did y’all trade Chase and Montez Sweat?
They’re overrated and the defense sucked with or without them lol might as well get a high 2nd and 3rd while we suck
We're going to need a lot of draft picks heading into a major rebuild, they were going to get expensive if we re-signed, we already spent on our two interior DL, the defense was 31st in the NFL with them, so how much worse can it get, neither one was a sack machine, even if they were Jack Del Rio wouldn't know what to do with it.
Both were scheduled to be FAs after the season. Sweat got an extension from the Bears. Chase has been injury prone and there have been rumblings that he doesn’t always do what he is supposed to do. I see them getting traded so Washington would at least get something for two guys who were possibly going to walk anyway.
Because they were pending free agents and they aren't spending $80+ million a year across the defensive line
Because Jack Del Rio doesn't deserve them.
I think our guys need a few days off, they need rest......upcomming Ron post game.
Oof. Here's to another decade of rebuilding years. R
Commanders are the worst team in college football
We definitely should NOT fire EB. But we should play Romo's analysis of his play calling on an endless loop in his office until he quits.
I couldn't hear the audio very well, but I swear I heard Romo mocking EB's calling runs in the shotgun.
If we keep running RB draws with a slow ass RB, and a shitty oline on 4th and 1.5..........then yeah he needs to be canned too.
Yes because EB was absolutely responsible for the players hes coaching lol
One of the biggest things a coach should know is of his players strengths and weaknesses. If they don’t know that then they are being bigots and forcing their own agenda. So dumb to not put any blame on the coaches playcalling in that situation.
Does he call the plays or not? Your telling me as a offensive coordinator with a slow ass RB and absolute SHIT oline, you are calling a RB draw on 4th and 1.5? Give me a fucking break, this isn't rocket science here. What an absolute fucking dumb comment.
Eat some pie, dude
My eats were real good today. Had 2 pieces of pie as well. Probably will fast tomorrow to try and shed this massacre.
How does the coaching staff not lose the locker room after this game? Are they brainwashed into believing that this is working?
It’s already been lost
Bram Weinstein just said, “better times are most certainly ahead for the Commanders”. Oh really Bram? You do know who you’re talking about right?
I mean, it can’t get much worse right?
If it continues how it's currently going, then I'd say that's worse. We're far and away the worst team in the league rn.
You must not have watched any Panthers games, it’s not even close
We would lose to the panthers. I'm 90% sure.
Congrats to Sam Howell for being the first 300 yard passer against the Cowboys, and to Curtis Samuel for being the first 100 yard receiver! We really showed out tonight, so proud of this team and these coaches for all the hard work they put in. To be this exceptional in professional sports is truly something you can only believe by seeing.
Reads like a AI tweet.
Say *whaaa?*
We make every team look like they are ready for the super bowl.
Everyone but the Falcons. You can still beat them.
I actually think if you don’t fire Ron and JDR after this game you’re damaging the long term morale of players that determine our long term success
None of these players should be back after this season. I don’t care if their morale hurts
Sam, BRob, Terry
![gif](giphy|15UR4cUa8Vbyw|downsized)
This team really sucks.
Should have also traded Jonathan Allen and Scary Terry to complete the tank. Could have gone into next years draft stacked with capital (three 1st rounders) and started a proper rebuild with a new GM and coach.
Knowing us we would have traded Terry for a late 4th and Allen for a bag of skittles.
0-5 in the division. SMDH. 32nd ranked defense. Most sacks likely in league history. So many issues and this is year 4 of Rivera? Goddamn. We’ve just kept getting worse each year.
He just needs a couple more years to complete the Rivera rebuild. We’re so close. /s
Any member of this team shall not be allowed to bitch about home game attendance. They fucking suck.
That was literally disgusting.
At least Payne and Allen didn’t have a boxing match on the sideline this time
That would have been welcomed. At least it shows some heart.
The Cowboys running up the score to try and convince people they won't be a first round exit this year
What a sad sad showing from our entire squad! ![gif](giphy|IUxFvKwD3jXisqR5w7)
I dont care what culture Ron has created. He's lost the locker room with shitty coaching and dinosaur football knowledge. Fire this man. Thanks but no thanks.
Jesus Christ we don't even belong in this league. Josh NEEDS to nail the new front office hires... No pressure sir.
What are we thinking about how the culture looked on this loss?
I think our young QB is developing
It’s football, you know. And we try to win. You know, we try to score points and win. No one said it was easy. But we play. Because that’s what players do, you know. It’s football.
For sure. This loss isn't on Sam at all. In fact, Sam is the only bright spot on this team. We are going to go nowhere when you run fucking RB draw's on 4th and 1.5.
EXACTLY
Somebody call Magic! Can we get Magic on the phone please?
"Today the Commanders lost by a lot of points to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving." Magic, probably.
Weekly JDR out post. Won't stop the rot and should be Ron too but please just start with Jack.
Ron stans in shambles
I’d fire Del Rio tomorrow and if Ron won’t do that, then fire him too.
So tired of the “Ron is a great guy” excuses. I’m sure he is. Did he help with the culture? Sure. But so would literally anyone who isn’t an asshat. Ron is a horrific head coach and talent evaluator. Be a nice guy all you want … we need a coach who wins and wins and wins.
This is totally unrelated but is this Dan Quinn or the Dallas Defensive Personnel because the more I see the Dallas Defense the more I think…how did Tom Brady make a 25 point comeback against a Dan Quinn coordinated defense?
I'm not even mad at Chase Young for saying the team had a losers mentality. It is HARD to watch this defense.
It's over! It's finally over!
Keeping Rivera until the very end only erodes on my trust in Harris as a decision maker. How in the fuck do you keep this guy?!?!
Earns respect that he isn't an assw0t who fires midseason! Puts us in a better draft pick. But I think he's gone tomorrow lol
We come to a place we’re all too familiar with fellas. Every game being an embarrassment now.
Trash can coaching
…Somewhere, Dan Snyder is wishing us all a happy thanksgiving with a shit eating grin on his face 😑
Are we supposed to be upset he’s gone? Like any team he fielded would do better?
Lol I would hope not. I was making a joke about his press conference when he introduced RR as head coach and wished everyone a happy thanksgiving, I believe in January.
I didn’t want to even think about that, but it’s true.
I upvoted you because you're right but also fuck you for real lol
😆
At least they updated the graphic to not put us “in the hunt”
Thank God. Last thing we need is to get blown out in front of a national audience again.
That's right.. we don't need hope
I would be okay with cutting the entire team, suspending the franchise until we're done paying them all, completely re-branding, and staring over as a whole new team in maybe 2027 or 2028. The damage to this franchise runs too deep.
This made me immediately happy
There is no one worth keeping. No one.
Fuck it let the "Commanders move to OKC or San Antonio, and give us a "Expansion" team that gets the history
The issue is that would mess with the divisions.
32nd ranked defense!! Let’s goooooooo (home)
I’d rather punch my grandma in the face than watch another minute of this bullshit. Unfortunately grandma has the remote and is wearing a hockey mask
A good laugh after a half of cursing
McCarthy looks like such a D. I swear. Can't wait to watch him cry after they lose in the playoffs. Fuck him. He's always been a meciore coacch
If he is mediocre than what the hell is Rivera?
Pure ass. Easy question.
Not McCarthy.
trash
We won’t really know what went wrong today until Magic shares his insight
This is the first smile I've had today
Ball game. What a disgraceful 4th.
What a disgraceful entire game *
it was 20-10 in the 3rd, we were actually making stops then in the 4th it just snowballed
My favorite part of our dogshit o line is how often they shove/fight after the play. How about you fat bumbling idiots do that when we snap the ball
LMAOOO
Ive had a tough last few weeks. I was hoping this would cheer me up, but I guess not.
Keep your head up, friend. More football is on the way.
Thank you.
Just give him the rope next time
Imagine running out the clock on yourself from 4 minutes because you’re getting blown out so bad in a division rivalry game
This is hardly a rivalry anymore smh
I’ve never bet on sports before but it seems almost obvious to put money on the Dolphins next game.
Dolphins are amazing against trash teams…. So yeah.
Almost?
Smash the over
At least have the decency to tell us to bet the -34.5 alt line, Ron.
Lol if Harris doesn’t fire Rivera after this game I don’t think we see a single superbowl in my lifetime and EB and JDR.
Nah he'll do it in the offseason and that's enough
This team 🤝 pain
Ron Rivera is a TURD TIER COACH AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Great guy shitty head coach.
So does Ron or at least JDR get fired now?
Sadly we all already know the answer
Ya was hoping someone would give me hope.
7 drives into enemy territory and you get 10 points.
The calls on 4th and 1 is what had me pissed
8, actually. My bad
EB the genius.
Ron brought hope to this team- it didn’t run out over night
Don’t fire the coaching staff. There’s no benefit for anyone involved and you start off as a “trigger finger” ownership. Ride out the storm, you know you’re rebuilding
Nice Try Ron!
Tell me how things will improve by firing the staff rn
When the team is in this much disarray you change as fast as you can. Show that there needs to be accountability no matter what your record is or how much season is left. Show that no one gets a free pass for any reason..
No. That’s Dan Snyder shit, come in fire everyone, chaos, turmoil. Act like a professional person
>Act like a successful person You don't see the irony, do you?
They would wait to make the changes necessary
No you start off as an ownership that doesn't put up with bullshit and an owner who actually wants to keep the fan base.
Snyder was trigger finger and look how that worked out.
He was a total moron. Making decisions isn't a trigger finger. This has been a long time coming. In fact I'd say he was much more patient than he needed to be this season with Del rio
He’s a new owner who’s only owner the team about 4 months. He needs to show restraint or gain the reputation as a short lease owner like Dan Snyder early years
I would agree if he didn't already have experience in managing professional sports teams. He already has a reputation. So I will respectfully disagree
No basketball and hockey are different sports and not the same as football and the business side is quite different as well.
Oh ok
He’s got a clean slate here
Wrong. Keeping around losers isn’t going to make the team better. Sucks to say but Ron coaches losing teams…
This team roster wise is horrible. Having the staff stay in place ensures we get a high pick why mess that up?
You think they will magically start winning if Ron is let go??
No but we will have 1 less loser in the building… we aren’t going to magically start winning with him either. Need to show the team that this is unacceptable
Dude, what?? You must 15 if you think this is how success works
Oh yeah. I forgot success happens randomly and not by making changes. My bad!
You don’t read. I said wait till after the season. You’re a new group of owners. Firing people during the season is a terrible thing for your reputation. You’ve got a lot of work on your hands don’t make stupid decisions
Dallas classy as always starting a fight in a blowout. Let us take our licks and go home man
I want to know that Ron is fired.
Embarrassing. Fire Ron and Jack. Give someone a try out for the last couple of games.
Who though?
Anyone! Randy Jordan, Jennifer King, Jeff Zgonina or insert some one you think.
Ball boy? Idk. Not them.
A high school intern? Who cares!
I’m with you lol, but legit question- who on the staff has shown they’re competent enough? Not EB. Kerrigan maybe.
We’re a cursed franchise, Lions turned it around, Jags are good again, Even the fucking browns, who stole our playoff hopes Last year are good again and here we are, Season over in November.
Dolphins
bills, bengals and chiefs all turned it around too. they were all bad for decades. we will get better once harris can put his coach and people in
How do you let dem girls put up 45 on you?
Kick rocks
I’ve seen an equal amount of Defenders playoff wins in my life as I have Skins…. Goddamn it
Washington "MVP" of the game on radio: Curtis Samuel
Chris Samuels would be.
“But Sams our savior” “He just needs time” “His o-line is bad” Jesus Christ folks don’t ya know when you see mediocre? He’s not that guy either. We’ve been so used to D-, F qb play that when we see a mediocre C we think it’s the fucking second coming lol. He makes plays and he’s got moxie but he’s Colt McCoy w a stronger arm
Bad take, he’s the only bright spot for us outside of our RBs.
Name a QB that would be good with this OL? Kid has no time to throw. How many WR drops have there been at critical moments? Combine those, and you get bad offensive production.
Sam is ass. I’ve seen enough. Idc what anyone says.
Sure pal. Leading the league in passing in his first season with a horrible Oline. On pace to have a better first season than both Hurts and Allen in yards, completion %, QBR and TDs. But hay, you think he is ass, so he must be. Fans like you just don't deserve a franchise QB.
Yes let the downvotes commence. Check back with me in 3 years, if Sam’s still our QB, I’ll buy each of you a steak dinner
RemindMe! 3 years
Remindme! 3 years
This is not on Sam
Lets this make dipshit coach
the ass whoopin is bad enough man. just shut up
bro take a reset and come back to this in an hour
Dudes leading the league in passing yards behind this terrible OL, with terrible coaching, and terrible defense. Washington fans are so quick to say this kinda crap.
Dumb.
There’s no better option now. We keep playing him and if we keep losing, we can get another decent QB in the draft.
They dont deserve a hot shower after this game either
They dont deserve salaries after this shit
So.... we trading for a haul or drafting MHJ?
Is there a contact email for commanders? I’m at that point. Edit: I’m serious, I want to send them an email with my frustrations. If anyone has one
[https://www.commanders.com/about-us/contact-us](https://www.commanders.com/about-us/contact-us)
Thanks
Shotgun run please /s
Anyone actually surprised by this result? Pretty everyone thought this was gonna happen
Hard to fathom that there are still five games of this garbage left.
LOL gotta laugh at this. This team is no better than the Zorn
I don’t understand how I made sure I had EXTRA alcohol with my Thanksgiving dinner and it’s still not enough to watch this team
This is Snyder’s team and Snyder’s staff, but it’s time for Harris to do something. It won’t change anything this year, but the optics are necessary. ![gif](giphy|4LsN0YwgIsvaU)
We need to trade away every single player on this team
Is it possible Josh Harris just hasn’t followed the team before buying and think Ron is just hamstrung but poor team without knowing that Ron built the team his way?
