Commanders injuries and inactives With Daniels and Mariota both out, Josh Johnson gets his first start for Washington since 2018. With Chris Rodriguez inactive, we should get a heavy dose of Bill Croskey-Merritt at running back. Laremy Tunsil’s absence should mean plenty of action at left tackle for Brandon Coleman. Game recap In the first […]

The Cowboys were knocked out of contention last week when the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Commanders to clinch the NFC East. Washington is down to their third-string QB in Josh Johnson, […]

The Washington Commanders released their final injury report for today’s game yesterday and then made three more roster moves.

Week 17 of the 2025 NFL season opens with three Thursday games as the NFL continues to grow its Christmas Day schedule. The league has set kickoff times for the games to resemble a typical Sunday slate of games, with a 1 p.m., 4:30 p.m., and 8:15 p.m. start time over the course of the […]
Christmas time is upon us, and we’ve all been gifted with a lump of coal in our stockings. This coal comes in the form of the 4-11 Commanders hosting the 6-8-1 Cowboys in an island game aired exclusively on Netflix. It all sounds strange, as does the fact that Dallas is favored by a whopping […]
Today is Christmas Day and also, today we stand just 91 days from the Cubs’ 2026 season opener against the Nationals at Wrigley Field.

There are […]

The NBA’s Christmas games are reserved for the (theoretically) most compelling league-wide matchups, and few reasonable people would have predicted a record much better than Washington’s current 5-23 mark […]
Holiday football is here again. The Panthers have given us the best gifts of all this season by both being in first place in the NFC South and not playing today. There are, however, a handful of other games to watch today. The Dallas Cowboys are visiting the Washington Commanders at 1 PM ET and […]
The Dallas Cowboys play on Christmas Day, but will receive no playoff gift from Santa this season. Eliminated from the playoffs, they are playing for pride.
