The Washington Commanders return home to Northwest Stadium for only the second time this season when they host the Cleveland Browns on Sunday. The Commanders have won three consecutive games and look to keep that streak alive against a struggling Deshaun Watson and the Browns.
The Commanders are favored to win the game for only the second time this season. Washington was favored in Week 2 against the Giants, which was also played at home. Coincidentally, Cleveland is the Giants’ only win so far this season.
This matchup features quarterbacks heading in opposite directions. Watson would be benched elsewhere, but he is in the third year of a fully guaranteed $230 million contract. Meanwhile, Jayden Daniels is the NFL’s hottest new star, most recently winning September’s NFL Offensive Rookie of the Month award.

The only question is, will Ford receive enough opportunities to eclipse 50 yards? He has 39 carries through four games but averages 5.2 yards per attempt. Cleveland wants to keep Washington’s offense off the field, but the Commanders haven’t proven it can stop the run. Expect a season-high number of attempts for Ford on Sunday.

Daniels targets Ertz a few times every game. He trusts the veteran tight end. Right now, the sweet spot…
