It’s been a fun last seven weeks as the Commanders have won six of their last seven games and five of the six games started by Taylor Heinicke.
I decided to look at some more of the offensive numbers and see what I learned about how the Commanders are performing offensively (through 12 games) in relation to the other 31 teams in the NFL.

What’s my point? Actually, I don’t really have one. I wanted to look up many offensive numbers and see what I might learn how the offense is actually performing. The numbers speak for themselves.
Tomorrow, I’ll look into the Commanders defensive numbers.
