The most glaring observation from the data comes with the offensive line. Offensive tackle Sam Cosmi missed the final 11 offensive possessions for the Commanders after limping off the field. Cosmi struggled Sunday, allowing three of the team's nine sacks that smothered quarterback Carson Wentz.

If Cosmi was playing through an injury last weekend, it explains his struggles a little bit. We'll learn more in this week's injury reports to see if Cosmi's in-game injury will linger into the next game against the Cowboys.
