Washington Commanders defensive lineman Jonathan Allen didn’t mince his words following the team’s 14-7 loss to the New York Giants.
When asked by a reporter to evaluate Sunday’s loss, Allen had a blunt response.
"They whooped our ass. Plain and simple. Gotta be better," Allen said.
Allen wasn’t done there. When asked a following-up question whether Washington’s defeat was frustrating, the defensive tackle sounded off about his displeasure.

"(Expletive) yes it does," Allen, who signed a four-year extension with the Commanders in 2021, said. "I'm (expletive) tired of this (expletive). (Expletive) tired of this (expletive. It's been seven (expletive) years of the same (expletive). I'm tired of this (expletive)."
The Commanders were a slight favorite entering Week 7’s tilt against their NFC East rival.
Yet, Washington was held scoreless in the first half, the offense went 1-15 on third downs, they had to punt the football 10 times and the team committed 10 penalties in a game in which they never had a lead.
Washington’s lost four of their last five since starting the season 2-0. Sunday’s loss dropped the Commanders to 3-4.
Allen has not experienced a winning NFL season since being drafted by Washington in the first round of the 2017 NFL draft out of Alabama. Commanders haven’t had a winning season since 2016.
Washington’s regular-season schedule doesn’t get any easier. The 3-4 club hosts the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 8 before going on the road in back-to-back weeks to face the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks.
