Washington @ Tampa Bay
Team Totals: Bucs 23.5, Commanders 20
Commanders OC Kliff Kingsbury’s preseason offensive designs indicated he’s reverting to the “Horizontal Raid” that got Kingsbury run out of Arizona. College football’s premier downfield passer at LSU — he led the NCAA in yards per pass attempt in 2023 — Jayden Daniels was frustratingly deployed as a low-aDOT, quick-release QB in August. The Commanders solely ran three-receiver, one-tight end formations, and No. 1 WR Terry McLaurin lined up in the same spot on every snap. Brandon Thorn pegged Washington’s offensive line as worst in the league. This is a green-light opportunity for Tampa Bay’s D/ST. … Washington beat writers expect Brian Robinson Jr. to handle early-down work with Austin Ekeler replacing him on change-of-pace and passing downs. As the Commanders are road dogs here, Week 1 sets up more favorably for Ekeler than Robinson in box-score terms.
