Washington’s roster overhaul under Adam Peters is showing up on Sundays. The Commanders piled up 400 offensive yards and a big win over Las Vegas even with Jayden Daniels sidelined by a knee injury, proving the depth Peters and Dan Quinn have built. Marcus Mariota piloted the offense efficiently, veterans Wagner and Miller anchored the pass rush, and a RB committee—led by Jeremy McNichols—found room with Ekeler out for the season. Special-teams added spark as Deebo Samuel and Jaylin Lane produced elite returns. Peters kept competition fierce and the organization’s direction clear, even amid Packers-Browns chaos and the NFL’s unpredictable week-to-week volatility.

In sum, Washington’s week three victory felt like a system win: quarterback instability masked by a versatile attack, a defense that pressured the quarterback, and a staff that leaned on depth and smart personnel moves. The result is a compelling fantasy narrative: upside remains when Daniels returns, but the supporting cast is delivering enough to sustain strong weekly floors and high-impact plays regardless of who starts.
