The Washington Commanders' offense has faced its share of struggles in recent weeks, and one of the most glaring issues has been their faltering running game. Quarterback Jayden Daniels has been the one bright spot in the rushing game, masking some of the deficiencies in the box score. However, when diving deeper into film analysis and advanced statistics, it's clear that Washington's running backs have seen a significant drop in production.

Swatting, a dangerously malicious form of harassment, has been an ongoing issue in the United States, with high-profile individuals becoming frequent victims. Recently, some of President-elect Donald Trump's appointees to key government roles were targeted by "swatting" incidents, prompting renewed attention to this dangerous trend.
