"It was the defense that doomed the Commanders in the loss, giving up 34 points to a team that was shut out in Week 3 and never even crossed the opposing 30-yard line. Bijan Robinson racked up 181 yards of total offense. Drake London had eight catches for 110 receiving yards and a touchdown. Even much-maligned tight end Kyle Pitts Sr. went for 70 receiving yards and a score on five receptions."
"Even though Mariota wasn't the reason Washington lost, he certainly could have fared better than his line of 156 passing yards, two touchdowns, and an interception. The pick, in particular, was a killer. While trailing by 11, Washington had driven into Falcons territory with a chance to get back within one possession. Mariota then overthrew Jaylin Lane on a deep shot into the end zone and was picked off by rookie safety Xavier Watts."
The Washington Commanders lost to the Atlanta Falcons in Week 4, falling to 2-2 with home wins and road losses. The Commanders defense surrendered 34 points to an offense that had been shut out the previous week and failed to cross the opposing 30-yard line in Week 3. Bijan Robinson totaled 181 yards, Drake London had eight catches for 110 yards and a touchdown, and Kyle Pitts Sr. added 70 yards and a score on five receptions. Marcus Mariota started amid Jayden Daniels' absence and passed for 156 yards, two touchdowns, and an interception that swung momentum. A key overthrow resulted in a Xavier Watts interception and an illegal shift negated a potential scoring drive.
