Payne did appeal this suspension, but it was upheld. He'll miss the Madrid trip.
The NFL announced that #Commanders DT Daron Payne has been suspended one game without pay for striking Amon-Ra St. Brown in last night's game. Immediately unclear if he plans to appeal.

Parsing Dan Quinn's post-game comments, it would certainly appear that he doesn't plan on firing Joe Whitt Jr this week.

That means the Madrid game becomes VERY interesting;

Does the defense play extra hard, try to save their DC? OR has he lost the players? We will all see.

The "fuck your feelings" crowd sure does love to have a big sook anytime someone doesn't support their cult leader.

The #Commanders defense today. Yikes.

I blocked so many MAGA trolls on Twitter today.

They're all up and about because Trump was at the #Commanders game.

Hoo boy Twitter has gone to absolute shit.

TOUCHDOWN

Ben Sinnott got a touchdown in garbage time and that's something, I guess?

(Is anyone still watching? Does anyone care?)

It's reached the point where Dan Quinn failing to act on these awful defensive performances reflects more poorly on the Head Coach than the Defensive Coordinator.

If you're not going to fire Whitt Jr, then the spotlight swings to you.

Four weeks in a row of 400 yards conceded.

It's raining.
You're down by 5 scores in the 4th quarter (again).
Your QB1 is injured for the next 3-6 weeks.

Quinn should sit Mariota.

Now even the broadcast is talking about how the #Commanders zone defense can't stop basic crossing routes.
November 9, 2025 at 11:36 PM
In case you missed it because the broadcast just basically ignored football for a 10 minute period...

#Commanders CB Jonathan Jones is questionable to return with a groin injury.

Amos is already OUT so the Commanders are THIN at DB now.

Jameson Williams scored a touchdown untouched on this play.

LB Kaho just concussed himself in an unfortunate tackle attempt on the kickoff. Led with his helmet.
November 9, 2025 at 11:11 PM
The key difference between Del Rio and Whitt;

- Del Rio has genuinely talented players on his defense and still struggled to get results

- Whitt Jr has really poor personnel available, and schemes his defense as if he's coaching the '85 Bears

Both are bad.
November 9, 2025 at 11:09 PM
Now might be a good time to share that I won't be covering the Madrid game next week; kickoff is at 1:30am Monday for me.

Would you get up at 1:30am for this team?
November 9, 2025 at 10:59 PM
It was 4th and 1 and for some reason the #Commanders defense were playing deep prevent as if it was a hail mary situation.

The incidentals are bad, and the play on the field is bad, but at least the vibe today are ALSO EXTREMELY BAD.
On one single play, it sure looks like the #Commanders lost three defensive starters;

CB Amos - injury
LB Luvu - injury
DT Payne - ejection

After the Trump celebration he did, I would also like to punch him in the face, but you gotta pick your moments
Footage of the Daron Payne incident.

Yeahhhh you can't do that. That was stupid, especially from a veteran.

The frustration of these players is boiling over.

Touchdown Commanders

Chris Rodriguez runs the ball into the endzone and then decides to attempt to murder a #Commanders team photographer with a football.

In professional football, have you ever seen a more wide open receiver who is still within 5 yards of the LOS?

Do you understand how difficult it is to NOT have a defender within 20 yards of you when you're this close to the LOS?
