Chris Russell gives his early prediction for Sunday’s matchup against the Colts, picking the Commanders to win 23-20 with the assumption that Marcus Mariota starts at quarterback. Chris says Washington MUST contain Jonathan Taylor and find a way to slow down tight end Tyler Warren, especially given the Commanders’ historical struggles against tight ends. The loss of Alec Pierce to injured reserve gives Chris some confidence, while Daniel Jones’ three interceptions and six sacks through the season also provide reasons for optimism. Chris breaks down the biggest concerns and why he still believes Washington can come away with the win.
