Jeremy Cluff writes: “Washington has now lost four straight games, and Jayden Daniels got hurt again. It’s turning into a nightmare of a season for the Commanders that will get worse with a big loss to Jared Goff and the Lions.”

Bill Speros writes: “Last season, the Commanders stunned the Lions 45-31 in the Divisional round at Detroit. Jayden Daniels threw for 299 yards and a pair of TDs. That was then. This is now. Daniels left Sunday night’s embarrassing 38-14 loss to the Seahawks with a left elbow injury. His status remains questionable. But the Commanders continue to show their age and the cracks that come along with having the NFL’s oldest roster (on Week 1). The 9-point-favorite Lions got bushwacked at home by the Vikings Sunday, 27-24. The tattered Commanders offer Dan Campbell and Jared Goff a perfect get-right opportunity. The Lions share a piece of the NFL’s best record ATS. And they’ve covered in 12 straight after a loss.”
The site’s formula predicts that the Lions will win the NFL Week 10 game against the Commanders.

Matt Johnson writes: “The Washington Commanders don’t have a pass rush, a viable receiving corps, nor Jayden Daniels. What they do have is one of the league’s worst secondaries that just lost Marshon Lattimore (ACL) for the season. On the other side of the field is a Detroit Lions team looking to rebound after an ugly home loss to Minnesota. Dan Campbell and Co. will not let up on the Commanders in this one. It’ll get ugly pretty quickly.”
