The Washington Commanders failed to meet the lofty bar they set for themselves by reaching the NFC Championship game. General manager Adam Peters was correct to push his chips into the middle, but now is the time for a different approach.
Massive changes are already underway in Washington. Kliff Kingsbury was replaced by new offensive coordinator David Blough, who has brought in a quarterbacks coach and assistant quarterbacks coach to work closely with Jayden Daniels. The Commanders are still seeking a defensive coordinator to replace Joe Whitt Jr., and the hire will inevitably implement scheme and staffing alterations once confirmed.
