The Washington Commanders face the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday Night Football with Terry McLaurin sidelined. Additionally, their offensive line is battling injuries against one of the NFL’s most dominant defensive fronts.
This crossover episode breaks down the critical Week 9 matchup. The Seahawks’ four-headed pass rush monster, featuring Boye Mafe and Derick Hall, will test a Commanders offensive line potentially missing Laremy Tunsil and starting rookie Josh Connerly Jr. at right tackle. Seattle’s interior defensive line trio of Leonard Williams, Byron Murphy, and Jarran Reed presents another challenge for Washington’s struggling rushing attack, which has dropped from first to third in the NFL despite facing weak defenses.
The analysis covers key matchups, including Marshon Lattimore versus Jaxon Smith-Njigba in a battle of Ohio State alums, Daron Payne’s career season against Seattle’s vulnerable interior offensive line, and whether Jayden Daniels can exploit the Seahawks’ defense with his dual-threat capabilities. Both teams’ three keys to victory focus on turnover battles, containing mobile quarterbacks, and establishing effective run games against elite defenses.
Discover how Washington’s depleted receiving corps and Seattle’s bye week preparation could determine this primetime showdown.
