Washington Commanders Stumble Against Baltimore Ravens at Northwest Stadium
The Washington Commanders faced a challenging game against the Baltimore Ravens at Northwest Stadium, resulting in a 30-3 defeat. This preseason matchup saw the Commanders drop to a 0-3 record, while the Ravens improved to 3-0.
First Quarter
The opening quarter set the tone for what would be a tough day for the Commanders. Despite their efforts, they struggled to gain momentum on offense. Quarterback Sam Hartman completed several passes but was unable to convert them into touchdowns. The Ravens' defense was relentless, forcing two interceptions early on.
Second Quarter
As the game progressed into the second quarter, Washington's defense showed some resilience with linebacker Ale Kaho leading with seven combined tackles and one tackle for loss. However, Baltimore's offense continued to dominate with efficient plays that increased their lead significantly by halftime.
Third Quarter
In the third quarter, special teams player Tress Way managed an impressive punt that pinned Baltimore deep in their territory. Unfortunately for Washington fans, this did not translate into points as turnovers continued to plague their offensive drives.
Fourth Quarter
The final quarter saw little change in fortune for Washington as they failed to break through Baltimore’s defensive line effectively. Running back Chris Rodriguez Jr., who had previously shown promise with his rushing attempts averaging nearly seven yards per carry in past games, found limited success against a formidable Flock defense.
Despite these challenges, there were moments of potential from players like Luke McCaffrey who contributed notably with five receptions totaling 23 yards and one first down during crucial plays.
