That's what happens. It's a team sport, so the team has to be good enough for even the best QBs to win. John Elway didn't win a Super Bowl in Denver until the Broncos finally produced a balanced team around him. There are plenty of other similar examples. I'm not saying I think Allen is great. He certainly hasn't been in this game. I just think there's a list of QBs who can win if their team is good enough. There have even been some over the years who were not really that good who won because of the team around them.

Stroud is having a better game, but his team hasn't done much offensively since it also lost its top receiver (Nico Collins) in this game. Stroud is doing better than Allen with the rest of his receiving crew, but I think he's getting better protection than Allen and has a better receiving depth than Allen.
The Bills have had stacked teams during his tenure and stability at HC.

Do people forget game 1? Watson was so bad, people actually thought Zimmer's defense was good lol. Browns are so bad in general, people bought into the hype.

Cincy and Tampa had zero issue scoring all over Washington's defense. In fact, Washington didn't even force Cincy to put one single time.
Don't kid yourself. Washington is GOOD. They will get better all season unless Daniels gets hurt. It's obvious they are buying into Quinn.

You will still get people in here that will act like they aren’t playing good or are a good team. Even though Cleveland is bad and beating them isn’t impressive, they are handling them with ease.

They have played one good team so far this year and lost by a lot. People overreact to a few good games, especially to new QBs every year. There was a time when Trevor Lawrence and the Jags were supposed to be the next problem. Let the season play out before crowing these teams and players.
Yes it's a great start for them. And people are reacting because they have been bad for so long without a legitimate QB. So any time a team who has been bad starts off a season with a few wins and their QB looking great. NFL Media and fans will always be quick to crown them. The Commanders haven't played any good teams really. But are improved and a team to look out for.

Dan Quinn's defense is also ranked 30th in Washington. So today does appear to be a lot about Watson just being a terrible QB. The real test is when Quinn starts to go up against better QBs and offenses.

It’s impossible to know though. The best team they’ve faced is the Buccs and they lost.

And teams will figure it out like they always do and then it comes down to Quinn adjusting to that. He showed zero ability to do that when he was here so let's see what happens on Washington
