The Commanders' offense, which had been a question mark going into the season, looked explosive from the get-go. Howell showed poise and accuracy, throwing for two touchdowns and leading the team on several impressive drives.
It wasn't all sunshine and rainbows, though. The Bears put up a good fight and even managed to make things interesting in the fourth quarter. But the Commanders showed their grit and held on for the win.
Here's what stood out:
- Howell's arm talent was on full display. He connected with his receivers with pinpoint accuracy, especially on deep throws. The guy's got a rocket for an arm!

**This win wasn't just about the scoreboard. It was about confidence and momentum. The Commanders proved that they're a force to be reckoned with. This is a team that's ready to make some noise in the NFC East.
