Washington Commanders 2023 Schedule Released

Fresh Start, New Season

The Washington Commanders have released their 2023 regular season schedule. The team will open the season at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars on September 10th. They will then travel to Detroit to face the Lions on September 17th. The Commanders will have their first bye week in Week 4.

The Commanders will play a total of eight home games and eight away games in 2023. They will face each of their NFC East rivals twice, as well as playing games against the AFC North and NFC South.

The Commanders will have a tough test in their first game of the season, as the Jaguars are coming off a 9-8 season and a trip to the playoffs. The Lions, on the other hand, are rebuilding and are not expected to be a major threat in 2023.

Key Matchups

The Commanders have a number of key matchups in 2023, including:

• Week 1: vs. Jacksonville Jaguars
• Week 2: at Detroit Lions
• Week 3: vs. Philadelphia Eagles
• Week 4: Bye
• Week 5: at Tennessee Titans

The Commanders will also face the Dallas Cowboys and New York Giants twice each in 2023. These games will be crucial in determining the NFC East standings.

Expectations for 2023

The Commanders are hoping to improve on their 8-9 record from 2022. The team has made a number of changes to its roster, including the addition of quarterback Carson Wentz. Wentz is a proven winner, and he is expected to help the Commanders take the next step in 2023.

The Commanders also have a number of other talented players on their roster, including wide receiver Terry McLaurin, running back Antonio Gibson, and defensive end Chase Young. If the Commanders can stay healthy and play to their potential, they have the chance to be a playoff contender in 2023.
