Week 5 proved Dan Quinn is exactly who the Commanders needed

"Washington was still banged up, despite the return of star quarterback Jayden Daniels from his knee sprain that cost him the last two contests. The Commanders started slow, falling behind 10-0 after the first quarter. Then, they showcased the grit and determination that led them to last year's NFC Championship game, with 27 unanswered points en route to a statement win. One thing was crystal clear in the victory: Dan Quinn outcoached Jim Harbaugh."

"From that point on, it was like a light switch flipped - the Commanders locked in and capitalized on every opportunity, and Los Angeles straight-up imploded. The mental mistakes were shocking from a Harbaugh-coached team. A roughing the kicker penalty on a Tress Way punt wiped a return touchdown off the board late in the first half, which the Commanders converted into three points to tie the score at halftime."

Defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. faced criticism, but head coach Dan Quinn's game plan and adjustments outmaneuvered Jim Harbaugh. The Chargers committed costly mental errors: a Quentin Johnston fumble, a roughing the kicker penalty that wiped a return touchdown and became a tying field goal, and a late third-quarter misaligned play on fourth down. Washington capitalized and secured a statement road win.
