You have lost twice to arguably the worse team in the league in the New York Giants. Your defense who has talent, are not playing as a unit and lacking communication on the field. They are underachieving, and it starts with Jack Del Rio. Why he still has a job makes no sense? Ron Rivera has checked out, as he sees the writing on the wall. If you look at his body of work, it has been mediocrity for four years. As a defensive minded coach, your defense is horrible and can’t even stop the worse team and a 3rd string QB. These types of results are not acceptable and something needs to be done. I understand why you don’t fire Rivera today or tomorrow before the Thanksgiving game, but if you get blown out by the Cowboys, it’s time to clean house.

The Commanders don’t want to be known as a .500 team, they want to be known as the team to beat the NFC East. Ron has had chances to pick up good players in the draft, particularly a talented young QB. He has failed to do that, instead he has went after free agents such as Alex Smith and Carson Wentz, who weren’t the answer. Then we picked up Sam Howell in the 2022 draft. Sam has showed flashes of hope and then flashes of mediocrity. We do have to remember he is a young quarterback with only four starts.

As of right now the Commanders are 2-1, but don’t be deceived by that winning record. They could of easily lost the first game, and then had to storm back from 21-3 to beat a bad Denver Broncos team. This team has the makeup of being another .500 team this year. They could surprise us this week and beat the Eagles, just like they did last year. But if we were to lose by another blowout, I think we should consider firing both coaches. They have too much talent on both sides of the ball to consistently be mediocre.

Why not fire Rivera and put Eric Bieniemy in charge to see what he can do? If you do that, Jack Del Rio, who has four 1st round draft picks on the defensive line, needs to go too. There’s no reason their defense should not be dominant, and one of the best in the league. In addition, now would be a good time because they have a new owner and they can have that fresh start and build for the future. Typically, coaches are fired based on there record for the year. In this case, depending on how the Commanders do against the Eagles, I believe now is the time.
