The Washington Commanders just can’t get out of their own way. After an impressive win in Week 1, the Commanders didn’t even show up for the first half of their Week 2 game against the Lions. Detroit took a 22-0 lead into halftime and held on for a 36-27 victory.
After their first win of the season, the Lions had a little fun — at Washington’s expense, of course.
Remember the mugs one of Washington’s team stores was selling ahead of the Week 1 opener? You know, the mug with the outline of the state of Washington with the Commanders’ logo inside?
We’ll refresh your memory.

So how did the Lions respond?

By sharing a white mug with the state of Michigan outline in Lions’ colors with a “W” in the middle. The “W” is for the win but is Washington’s logo.
Now that’s the perfect troll job. Washington will certainly remember for the next meeting.
