It's also a nonconference road game. If we have to lose a game, this is the type. Much better than a division, conference, or home game. Make no mistake though, it'd be a huge win and one that I think is attainable although will be tough.

2 things I'm interested to see most in this game:

1) How we handle Ravens' vaunted rushing game
2) How JD plays against their defense/tough road environment

HTTC!

I'm going to give the Ravens a slight edge here. I think it'll be a 31-28 type of game where both defenses struggle.

If somehow we pull this one out then all hell is gonna break loose.

I didn't look into the breakdown of stats, but the Ravens D is 31st against the pass. Our defense is more balanced overall. Also we have a ton of tape on the Ravens, this year our offense is an unknown and continues to morph each week.

All that is to say, I would not be surprised to see us win convincingly (not a blowout) along the lines of 33 -27

This is very encouraging. Think KK may dial up even more deep shots after this. JD's dime he threw to D Brown last week was sick for a deep bomb.

Let's go Commanders!

Sunday can't get here fast enough. I really believe in Washington at this point. I was so afraid KK was going to be a dud but it's clear he's a dude when it comes to developing and tailoring this offense. I know Baltimore will get their points, but so will we.

While I feel we could win, I also think it could be bad. Real bad

Skins have played a schedule of soft pass defenses and our defense has played bad running teams.

I mean, the Ravens haven't shown to be all that good against the pass themselves, so with regard to playing soft pass defenses, I guess that trend will continue. The only team worse than Baltimore in pass defense - in terms of passing yards allowed per game - is Jacksonville.

Regarding "bad running teams", I will agree with you. Arizona would be the exception as they are top 5 in the NFL in rushing (Baltimore is #1 and Washington is #2).

It's going to be interesting. The edge probably goes to Baltimore and their running game. If they can stay on the field, dominate time of possession, and actually score TDs, it's going to be a problem. That said, if Washington can figure out a way to contain (not stop) their running game, I don't think they can stop our offense, so that could be a problem for them.

I can't wait. Unfortunately, I won't see the game as I'll be watching my son play baseball, but hopefully NFL Network will have a replay. Win or lose I'd eventually like to see it.

He is great with qbs. Mahomes, Mayfield, Murray, Daniels, C Williams, Case Keenum, and Manziel. Quite a list. He's also run more than I expected and has been pretty unpredictable on plays. He has done very well so far.

[Darrell Green Fan]

I think it's clear the Ravens will be able to move the ball. They key will be keeping them out of the end zone. if they can hold them to field goals I am confident Jayden will put up TDs.

Commanders Post = 179
Ravens = 181

I'm not setting myself up for failure/disappointment. Gotta give the advantage to the team that's been doing it for a long time now and has the home field advantage.

The huge difference is, there is a legitimate chance that we can win this game. In years' past, we would win a random one here or there, but it was never actually something you would have any confidence in. Times are a changin'.

Hail to the Commanders! LFG!!

Robinson is ruled out. Going to be a test if we can win mainly with our passing game

So what’s up with the knee? Was it injured in game action?
