ABOUT THIS EPISODE
The Washington Commanders just found another unbelievable way to blow a football game! A 14-point fourth-quarter lead disappears, the clock runs out in overtime with Washington in field goal range, and the Commanders settle for a disastrous 27-27 tie against the New York Giants.
Now Dan Quinn is under fire, Jayden Daniels is taking responsibility, and the pressure is building on a Commanders team that has fallen to 1-3-1.
On today's Commanders Squad, Nick Ashooh, former Washington Commanders wide receiver Anthony Armstrong, and David Harrison break down the shocking finish, the growing questions surrounding Dan Quinn's future, Jayden Daniels' return and whether Washington can still save its season.
🏈 ON TODAY'S SHOW:
🚨 COMMANDERS' UNFORGIVABLE MELTDOWN: How did Washington fail to attempt a game-winning field goal in overtime? With the ball at the Giants' 24-yard line and no timeouts remaining, the Commanders watched the clock expire. We break down the decision-making, communication breakdown and responsibility of Dan Quinn, offensive coordinator David Blough and Jayden Daniels.
🔥 IS DAN QUINN ON THE HOT SEAT? The Commanders are 1-3-1, and questions about Quinn's leadership are getting louder.
