Are the Washington Commanders playoff bound in the 2022 season Washington Commanders v Baltimore Ravens Despite the loss of Robinson, who had reportedly supplanted Antonio Gibson as the lead back, Washington still has a strong backfield. Gibson surpassed 1,000 yards rushing last season and J.D. McKissick is a great pass catching running back. Despite that, they have an uphill battle to get back to the playoffs. They have at least marginally upgraded at quarterback by adding Carson Wentz. But is that enough to get past either the Philadelphia Eagles or the Dallas Cowboys? The Cowboys remain the division favorites and the Eagles made the playoffs last year. The NFC is a strong conference, so even the Eagles might have difficulty returning to the playoffs after a Wild Card loss a year ago. The New York Giants are not expected to challenge for the NFC East this campaign, but could still prove tricky customers. Being behind the Cowboys and Eagles would all but ensure Washington misses the playoffs this season. Several NFC teams could genuinely jockey for a Wild Card berth, including: Green Bay PackersMinnesota VikingsTampa Bay BuccaneersCarolina PanthersNew Orleans SaintsDallas CowboysPhiladelphia EaglesSan Francisco 49ersLos Angeles RamsArizona Cardinals That's a lot of teams and Washington would need to be better than half of them to nab one of the three Wild Card spots. They will be an improved team this season. But the rest of the conference, including their own division rivals, has improved, too. Although anything can happen, it's unlikely that the Commanders will make much noise this season. If you use any of the above quotes, please H/T Sportskeeda.
