Locked On Commanders - Daily Podcast On The Washington Commanders

On today’s Commanders Squad, Nick Ashooh, Anthony Armstrong and David Harrison try to figure out where the Washington Commanders really stand at the bye week. We’re unpacking a season that’s gone sideways fast: Sitting in the misery: Washington hits the bye with a losing record after that overtime gut punch in Madrid against Miami and a long skid that’s completely flipped the vibes from last year. Five plays that broke the season: We walk through the moments called out this week – from the Bears collapse, to “Doomsday in Dallas,” to the late-game chaos against the Dolphins – and how each one changed the arc of 2025. Jayden Daniels’ elbow & what the team does now: Daniels’ left elbow bent backward late in a blowout, but tests showed no structural damage and no surgery needed. The big question: do you put your franchise rookie back on the field this year, or shut him down and protect 2026? Injuries everywhere: From Jayden already missing time with knee and hamstring issues to Terry McLaurin’s quad keeping him out for most of the season, we talk about how this roster got stripped of its firepower and what that’s done to the offense. Dan Quinn under the microscope: How Quinn handled keeping Daniels in, what he’s said since, and what he needs to fix over the bye to keep this locker room from “just sitting in this misery” the rest of the way. Bye week blueprint: What Washington should actually focus on during the break: protecting the QB, figuring out who’s part of the long-term core, and how they avoid wasting another year of development. 👀 Join the conversation: What should the Commanders do with Jayden Daniels after the bye – play him if he’s cleared, or shut him down for the season?

The Commanders' #2-ranked red zone offense vanished in Spain, leading to a catastrophic overtime loss to the Dolphins. This game wasn't lost on the final interception, but on the failures that came before. This episode breaks down how the offense went 1-for-4 in the red zone, squandering three dominant, 70+ yard drives and turning the ball over on downs at the 1-yard line. Marcus Mariota's overtime INT was the fatal blow, but it was made possible by the offense's stunning collapse. We also analyze the heroic, two-time goal-line stand by Dan Quinn's new defense and the ugly, game-changing muffed punt by Mike Sainristil.

Demoted defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. spoke publicly about the change, and he "wasn't necessarily shocked," stating he "understood it and expected it." This episode dives into Whitt's full comments on the demotion and the final, massive injury report for the game in Spain. Both 3-7 teams are missing their stars: no Jayden Daniels, Terry McLaurin, or Daron Payne for Washington, and no Tyreek Hill for Miami. The key to a Commanders victory is clear: the 5th-ranked run game must dominate the Dolphins' 26th-ranked run defense, specifically attacking the edges where Miami is 30th in the NFL. We also break down the "stoppable force vs. movable object" turnover battle and give our top 5 bets for the game.

The Washington Commanders head to Madrid for the NFL's first-ever game in Spain, but they are a team in transition. With Jyaden Daniels and the suspended Daron Payne not making the trip, the leadership falls to Marcus Mariota on offense and Dan Quinn, who makes his official debut as the defensive play-caller. This episode previews the international matchup. We analyze how the depleted secondary, now without Trey Amos, plans to attack the Dolphins' biggest weakness: Tua Tagovailoa's league-leading 13 interceptions. We also break down how the run game with Chris Rodriguez and Bill Crosky-Merritt is the key to protecting Mariota and controlling the clock.

The debate rages: should the Commanders "shelf" Jayden Daniels for the season to protect him, even if he's cleared to return? This mailbag episode tackles the Jayden Daniels dilemma, plus the reasonable expectations for Dan Quinn as the new defensive play-caller with a depleted roster. We also dive into how the massive injury crisis should affect Adam Peters' offseason strategy (starters vs. depth) and scout potential 2026 free agents from the upcoming opponent, the Miami Dolphins.

The NFL goes international as the Washington Commanders face the Miami Dolphins in Madrid on Sunday. It’s been a brutal stretch for Washington — injuries have decimated the roster and Jayden Daniels remains out with an elbow injury. Marcus Mariota will get another start, but he’s missing key weapons like Terry McLaurin and multiple defensive starters. Meanwhile, Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins come in off a 30–13 win over Buffalo, though they’ll also be without Tyreek Hill for the rest of the season. Miami’s leaning on De’Von Achane and a short passing game to stay in control. On this episode of Commanders Squad, @nickashooh, @ratedarmstrong, and @dharrison_82 break down: 🏈 What Washington can do to slow down Tua and Achane 🏈 How Mariota and the offense can survive without McLaurin 🏈 Whether this trip overseas could spark some life in the Commanders 🏈 Our predictions and what this matchup means for Washington’s season #NFL #Commanders #Dolphins #CommandersSquad #WashingtonCommanders #MiamiDolphins #NFLWeek11 #NFLInternational #MadridGame #JaydenDaniels #MarcusMariota #TuaTagovailoa #TyreekHill #DeVonAchane #HTTC #HTTR #Football #NFLHighlights #SportsShow #FootballTalk #CommandersNation Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Dan Quinn is taking over defensive play-calling. The head coach announced the move, demoting Joe Whitt Jr. to the press box in a massive staff shakeup. This episode breaks down the two bombshells from Ashburn. First, Dan Quinn is officially taking over the defense to fix the "catastrophic" lack of discipline. Second, Daron Payne's one-game suspension for punching Amon-Ra St. Brown was upheld; he will not travel to Madrid. We also get the official roster for the Spain game: Marcus Mariota will start, as Jayden Daniels is not traveling. The injury crisis worsens, with news that CB Trey Amos suffered a fractured fibula.

It was a total loss of composure. The Commanders' defense imploded, Daron Payne was ejected for fighting, and the offense showed flashes of life in the loss. This episode breaks down the catastrophic 44-22 loss to the Detroit Lions. While Marcus Mariota led three long touchdown drives, the game was defined by a complete defensive and disciplinary collapse. Daron Payne was ejected for punching Amon-Ra St. Brown on the same play where both Trey Amos and Frankie Luvu were injured. We break down Mariota's performance, the full new injury list, and ask the burning question: Where is the accountability?

The Commanders fell to 3-7 in their 44-22 loss to the Lions, without Jayden Daniels, and pretty much half their roster— with more injuries and mental meltdowns at the forefront.

Jayden Daniels is OUT but not on IR, leaving the door open for a return. His 2025 season now rests on Marcus Mariota and a defense desperate for a turnaround. This episode breaks down the critical Week 10 preview vs. the Detroit Lions. The Commanders offense will be led by Marcus Mariota, and a major clue about the game plan was revealed as Chris Rodriguez Jr. was named a team captain. Analytically, the Commanders have a huge advantage running off the right tackle against a weak Lions' run D. Plus, the Lions are missing their top 3 special teamers, creating a massive X-factor for Washington.

The Commanders' spiraling season has calls for firings, but the team's core issues may trace back to a flawed roster construction based on "hope" vs. "knowledge." This episode analyzes the root of the Commanders' problems, starting with the offseason roster-building strategy for the wide receiver room and the conflicting "all-in" vs. "future" moves. Plus, a breakdown of why firing Joe Witt Jr. now won't fix the defense, why Jaden Daniels isn't "fragile," and the strategic reason he was not placed on Injured Reserve.

Another week, another setback for the Washington Commanders. Nick Ashooh, Anthony Armstrong, and David Harrison on QB Jayden Daniels suffering a dislocated left elbow in the loss to Seattle, though X-rays came back negative for a fracture. Head coach Dan Quinn says the team will run more tests before deciding on his status. The bad news didn’t stop there — Luke McCaffrey broke his collarbone on the opening kickoff, and Marshon Lattimore is feared to have torn his ACL, adding to a growing injury list that’s derailing Washington’s season. Now sitting near the NFC basement, the questions get louder: – Will the Commanders sell at the deadline and start a full rebuild under Quinn? – Who steps up in place of McCaffrey and Lattimore as the roster gets thinner? – And what does this mean for Jayden Daniels’ development heading into the second half of the year? We break it all down — injuries, depth chart moves, trade talk, and what comes next for this team trying to find stability through chaos. 👇 Join the conversation with Nick, Anthony & David @nickashooh | @ratedarmstrong | @dharrison_82 #Commanders #JaydenDaniels #WashingtonCommanders #HTTC #NFL #Football #DanQuinn #LukeMcCaffrey #MarshonLattimore #InjuryUpdate #TradeDeadline #CommandersSquad Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The Commanders' 38-14 loss to the Seahawks was secondary to the real story: QB Jayden Daniels was injured late in the 4th quarter. Daniels suffered a serious elbow injury during garbage time, forcing him to be carted off with an air cast. This episode breaks down the entire situation, including: Coach Dan Quinn's post-game explanation for why Daniels was still in the game. How the devastating injury play happened. Veteran Marcus Mariota's reaction to the injury and his new role as the starter. How the Seahawks (and Sam Darnold) picked apart the Commanders' secondary. The biggest burning questions about the offense and defense moving forward.

The Washington Commanders' path to victory against the Seattle Seahawks relies on their strength-on-strength rushing attack to set up the pass. With Jayden Daniels returning (and Terry McLaurin out), the offense must exploit a vulnerable Seahawks secondary and their league-leading pressures allowed at right guard. Defensively, Joe Whitt Jr.'s unit has to stop Seattle's explosive run plays and contain Jaxson Smith-Njigba. Plus, David shares his fantasy must-start and best bets for the Week 9 matchup.

The Washington Commanders face the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football with Terry McLaurin sidelined. Additionally, their offensive line is battling injuries against one of the NFL's most dominant defensive fronts. This crossover episode breaks down the critical Week 9 matchup. The Seahawks' four-headed pass rush monster, featuring Boye Mafe and Derick Hall, will test a Commanders offensive line potentially missing Laremy Tunsil and starting rookie Josh Connerly Jr. at right tackle. Seattle's interior defensive line trio of Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy, and Jarran Reed presents another challenge for Washington's struggling rushing attack, which has dropped from first to third in the NFL despite facing weak defenses. The analysis covers key matchups, including Marshon Lattimore versus Jaxon Smith-Njigba in a battle of Ohio State alums, Daron Payne's career season against Seattle's vulnerable interior offensive line, and whether Jayden Daniels can exploit the Seahawks' defense with his dual-threat capabilities. Both teams' three keys to victory focus on turnover battles, containing mobile quarterbacks, and establishing effective run games against elite defenses. Discover how Washington's depleted receiving corps and Seattle's bye week preparation could determine this primetime showdown. 📌 Locked On Commanders is your daily podcast for all things Washington Commanders—free and available on all platforms. 🎧 Subscribe + hit the bell for daily updates 💬 Drop your questions and reactions in the comments! 📸 Photo Credits Images courtesy of USA Today, Bowie TV (YouTube.com/@Bowie_TV), and Abdullah Konte of the Washington Informer (Instagram: @dullahvision) 📲 Join the Locked On Commanders community https://joinsubtext.com/lockedoncommanders 🔗 Follow & Subscribe on all Podcast platforms https://link.chtbl.com/LOCommanders 🧠 More NFL content from Locked On https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNFL 👤 About the Host David Harrison covers the Washington Commanders for Sports Illustrated’s CommanderGameday.com and contributes to WUSA9.
