The @Commanders pass game fell flat Week 1 It’s not because the QB #nfllive https://t.co/8LZ37khTjr Via @danorlovsky7 on X

What happened: Dan Orlovsky said Washington's passing attack fell flat in Week 1 and argued the problem was not the quarterback. His assessment puts the spotlight on how the offense functioned as a whole coming out of the opener.

Why it matters: Quarterback blame usually dominates any slow start, so that framing matters immediately around a Week 1 offense. If Washington's passing-game issue proves broader, the pressure shifts to the rest of the operation heading into Week 2.

What to watch: Week 2 will show whether Washington's pass game looks sharper or whether the same question follows the offense into another Sunday.
