When speaking to reporters after Saturday's game at Ford Field, Commanders head coach Dan Quinn credited his defense, highlighting the emphasis on creating turnovers as key to defeating the Lions.

Here are some quick takeaways from the game: The Lions didn’t appear to make much of an attempt to counter the pace that the Commanders like to move at. A sound strategy would’ve been to slow this game down to keep them off the field, but a pass-happy strategy, even before the game started slipping away, allowed Jayden Daniels to stay on the field.
