""When something's not working, we shift from the question of why isn't it working to what do we need to do to get it right," Quinn said. "Joe took the news like the pro he is. We're all consumed by getting it right. That's what we intend to do.""
""The news occurred one day after Washington lost 44-22 to the Detroit Lions and did not force a punt. Washington has allowed its most points over a four-game stretch (154) since the 1954 season. The Commanders (3-7), who have lost five games in a row, leave Monday night for Spain. They will play the Miami Dolphins on Sunday.""
""Washington's defense ranks 28th in scoring and 30th in yards allowed per game. But in the last five weeks the Commanders have stumbled hard: They rank 31st in both scoring (35.8 points per game) and yards, ahead of only the Cincinnati Bengals.""
Dan Quinn will assume defensive coordinator duties for the Washington Commanders while keeping Joe Whitt on staff. Quinn emphasized shifting focus from diagnosing problems to implementing solutions. The change followed a 44-22 loss to the Detroit Lions in which the team did not force a punt and a four-game stretch allowing 154 points, the most since 1954. The Commanders are 3-7 with a five-game losing streak and will travel to Spain before facing the Miami Dolphins. The defense ranks near the bottom in scoring and yards, has declined over the past five weeks, and has dealt with multiple injuries despite offseason additions and a draft pick.
