Sunday's game between Arkansas and Virginia in Washington D.C. is a fascinating matchup of youth versus experience.

Drew Stevens if 4-for-5 tonight. He's made field goals from 56, 39, 25, and 42. His only miss was from 55.
On the season he is 14-for-17 and a perfect 10-for-10 inside of 50. He's also made 11 of his last 12 kicks overall, dating back to Week 3. The rookie's been very solid.

"If you asked me to pick the heir to Fred Warner today – I'd say Sonny Styles."
"This guy might be the best linebacker once Fred Warner retires."
Much more on the Commanders rookie with @Foxworth24 @CKravitz17 and @Nate_Tice:

I mean, just an all-time TV segment. Making Chuck do Who He Play For multiple times in a row with the same players is a brilliant idea and I was legit crying laughing by the end, my god.

Jayden Daniels is an elite quarterback, there’s no doubt about that.The team’s chemistry needs to evolve and the team will improve. Bad breaks and weird shit keeps happening.

This falls entirely on the coaching. This is the dumbest team in the league and it's not close. #Commanders

With the Wizards' season opener days away, I have a fun article for you: Is the team ready for takeoff? Is the franchise even taking the right approach to the year ahead? I offer 15 thoughts, observations and opinions. Free to read in @TheAthleticNBA:

I didn’t believe it until I looked it up.
From the moment the Commanders went up by 14pts with 11:05 left in the 4th quarter, they ran the ball 1 time for the rest of the game until OT.
Then they ran it twice in OT. Not a single carry went to Bill who was averaging 8ypc

Y’all - we gotta stop harping on Revo. That was a low thrown on a wet field with a player who nearly lost a damn finger the week before.
Dude has more heart and plays with more effort than anyone on this team.

Mistake no 1: taking a long time to get the play in. If the desire is to run another play and perhaps pick up a few more yards then get to the line around 30 seconds when there are no more TO.
Mistake no 2: the call. From under center and play action with downfield routes. One Off coach from another team wondered “if just throwing it away, do from gun.” Also: his foot was stepped on again (second time in the game). The easy call: spike it, kick the FG.
Mistake no 3: not throwing it away. Then the lax effort by all to get reset. All confusing.
Mishandled at each step.
Brutal.

I’m in total disbelief my Commanders had such poor clock management in today’s overtime game against the Giants. All we had to do was kick the field goal and we would have won the game!🤦🏾♂️
Hail To The District retweeted
For all the take about the size of the Commanders’ injury report —
17 of the 23 players listed were at least limited on a Wednesday which gives them a solid shot to play come Sunday.
Also, it looks like Daniels and Cosmi will definitely be back on offense. Cross is back in defense. Plus Amos, Wise and McNichols are back at practice. This is all very encouraging.

No, this isn’t about Tress. The Commanders hold a punter workout every week. Rivers gives their returns a chance to catch punts from a righty punter.
Other punter workouts this season:
Jack Stonehouse - Sept. 10
Aidan Laros - Sept. 17
Jack Browning - Sept. 24
With Tress Way’s slow start to the season and being set to retire after this year, Washington is bringing in #UFL punter Mike Rivers for a workout today.
