The team lost back-to-back division games to start the season, and also lost starting QB Jayden Daniels for a few weeks due to a dislocated elbow. Marcus Mariota led the team to victory today, and said it was an unbelievable win that the team needed. He said the team came together through adversity and they didn’t blink when last season’s Super Bowl champions came to town.Dan QuinnPostgame LIVE: BIG WIN IN THE HOME OPENER! https://t.co/T9AhMsDyjZ— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) September 27, 2026(Starts at )Marcus MariotaPostgame LIVE: BIG WIN IN THE HOME OPENER! https://t.co/T9AhMsDyjZ— Washington Commanders (@Commanders) September 27, 2026(Starts at 2:33)Unbelievable:“That was unbelievable”-Marcus Mariota pic.twitter.com/eNT5HrAV7H— Mitchell Tischler (@Mitch_Tischler) September 27, 2026Coming together through adversity:Mariota: The more the adversity hits the more we come together.
