The Washington Commanders have made clear the kind of franchise they aspire to be. One with character and standards. And one that collects a building full of dudes who would not only run through a wall but would show up to work early as professionals, even while taking the time to become brothers. These sound like the tenets of a model franchise. Too bad that, when it matters, the Commanders aren’t acting like one.
