The Commanders are off to a 2-0 start, and might still be trending upward with Chase Young rounding back into his dominant self.
. Adding Young, if he really is the player he once was, gives them as fearsome a foursome as there is in the game.
Young and Sweat even combined on a huge sack with 1:53 remaining when the Broncos, trailing by 11, had a 3rd and goal from the Washington 4. It was the perfect picture of the powerful line at work, with Payne absorbing a double-team, Young and Sweat collapsing the pocket, and Allen coming around the backside to force Wilson right up into their arms.
No one doubts that Payne and Allen are up to the task. It's why the Commanders gave them both lucrative long-term contracts. And Sweat, who now has three sacks through two games this season, showed what he can do when he had eight sacks without Young last year.
