I also put some blame on the offense; in the first half the D had some stops and a turnover; with this weak D if they hand you something like that got put points on the board; the O started very slowly yesterday. Missing BRob really made us one dimensional against a good team.
But hey we were competitive and we are 4-2 with arguably now our hardest game of the year behind us. Go back and watch Bills vs Ravens; JD5 and the Commanders definitely held their own against a top team compared to Allen and the Bills.
Pssssss...by the way if Lamar or Henry go down on a significant injury this team is cooked.

If the offense had been able to score a TD after that pick, it would have greatly affected the course of the game. And in that particular drive, I feel that BRob absence was definitely felt. As good as Ekeler and McNichols have been, they don't have the same effect that BRob has in the run game. The Ravens have a good run defense, but I agree that not having BRob took away from the running attack.
