Week 6: Commanders Visit Unbeaten 49ers on Monday Night Without Dre Greenlaw

Read the full recap →

The Washington Commanders visit the San Francisco 49ers on Monday night, October 19. San Francisco is 5-0 after a 32-29 win at Seattle decided by Eddy Pineiro's late field goal; Dre Greenlaw is suspended for this game, and Nick Bosa, C.J. West, Kyle Juszczyk and three receivers remain out. Washington is 1-3-1 after a 27-27 tie with the Giants in which Jayden Daniels returned to run for 103 yards and two touchdowns and throw for 199 without a turnover. Thursday update: Deebo Samuel is out with a hamstring injury, Nick Bosa, Kyle Juszczyk and James Thompson Jr. have a chance to return, and Dre Greenlaw's suspension is under appeal.

San Francisco's depth chart

Greenlaw suspended, Bosa and West out, two defensive backs hurt last week.

Daniels' return

One hundred three rushing yards and no turnovers in a brace.

Washington's defense

One hundred forty-nine points allowed, the second most in the league.

Pregame AI Prediction

Winner called correctly Confidence: High

How the prediction did

Predicted 17-27 (Commanders vs 49ers), final was 17-23. Right winner, with the margin off by 4. San Francisco led 20-3 at halftime and Christian McCaffrey scored twice, then held off a Washington rally in which Jayden Daniels threw for 300 yards and two touchdowns. The 49ers are 6-0 but lost Mike Evans to Achilles soreness, and Washington lost Terry McLaurin for the season. Week 6 closes at 8 of 14.

Brock Purdy against the league's second-worst defense

Thirteen touchdown passes in five games.

Washington has not held anyone under 24 since Week 1

The Commanders' defense is why this is a 10-point projection.

San Francisco's injuries could matter against Daniels' legs

A thinned defense without Greenlaw against a running quarterback is the Commanders' path.

A High-confidence home lean to close the week.
