"The stakes have been raised for the Washington Commanders in 2025. They are no longer among the outsiders with little chance of lifting the Super Bowl. Instead, head coach Dan Quinn's squad is widely anticipated to be among the leading playoff challengers if everything clicks. That's a stark contrast to the expectations normally associated with this franchise before the current regime came into the fold. This brings a different set of pressure, but everything is seemingly in place"
"Getting off to a positive start is crucial. Everyone will be gunning for the Commanders. They won't be an afterthought that most don't see coming. This is a respected football operation again, and opposing teams will be doing everything in their power to knock Washington off its perch. There is enough professionalism to keep standards high and not revel in last season's accomplishments. Players and coaches turned the page pretty quickly, which is only going to serve them well"
Washington Commanders enter 2025 as legitimate Super Bowl contenders following a sensational run to the NFC Championship, raising expectations and internal pressure. The team now faces opponents determined to stop them, eliminating any element of surprise. Leadership under head coach Dan Quinn maintains professionalism and a quick focus, preventing complacency from last season's success. Organizational standards and a turned page among players and coaches aim to sustain the challenge, including pursuit of the Philadelphia Eagles' title. Fan excitement is unusually high, and an early positive start, beginning with a competitive Week 1 matchup against the New York Giants, is emphasized as crucial.
