Jeremy Reaves of Commanders proposes to girlfriend on field after Washington win

Washington DB Jeremy Raves poposed the question after the Commanders’ OT win

There was the overtime win. Then there was the big question of the evening.

Washingon Commanders DB Jeremy Reaves proposed on the field Sunday after the 30-24 overtime win over the Atlanta Falcons.

The answer was a resounding, “Yes.” And what better way to finish a night that saw Reaves and the Commanders earn a wild-card playoff spot.

Jayden Daniels’ OT touchdown pass puts Commanders, Rams in playoffs

Washington Commanders with another cardiac win, this one over the Falcons

Jayden Daniels is the captain of the Cardiac Commanders.

The rookie quarterback put the Washington Commnaders in the playoffs on Sunday with a touchdown pass to Zach Ertz in overtime. The throw from the rookie to the vetertain tight end gave Washington its 11th victory, 30-24, and a spot in the NFC playoffs.

It was a wild game like some many have been in Daniels’ first season. The second overall pick led the game-winning drive that saw Washington win the coin toss after Atlanta called it incorrectly.

The Commanders got the ball and never let the Falcons touch it. The drive covered 12 plays and 70 yards over 7:18.

The Falcons had a chance to win it at the end of regulation but Riley Patterson’s 56-yard field goal was on line but short.

Tampa Bay now controls the path to the NFC South title. The Falcons would need Tampa Bay to lose or tie with Atlanta winning to make the postseason.

 

Cardiac Commanders down Eagles on late touchdown pass

The Commanders get a late TD pass from Jayden Daniels to drop the Eagles

The Washington Commanders needed six points on a final drive to overcome five turnovers on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Jayden Daniels pulled off a pre-Christmas miracle of sorts finding Jameson Crowder with a nine-yard scoring pass with six seconds left to give the Commanders victory.

The final score was 36-33 because Jeremy McNichols ran in the two-point conversion for good measure.

The Eagles had kicked two field goals to take a 33-28 lead before Washington launched its game-winning drive that covered 57 yards over nine plays in 1:52.

The TD pass was Daniels’ fifth of the game against two interceptions.

The Eagles saw a 10-game winning streak come to an end in a game they lost quarterback Jalen Hurts to a concussion.

Jayden Daniels, Terry McLaurin combine for spectacular Commanders touchdown

Another thrilling play by Washington rookie QB Jayden Daniels

Jayden Daniels is beyond exciting. When he teams with Terry McLaurin, the Washington Commanders are a thrill waiting to happen.

Against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, the quarterback had to innovate when pressured, managed to keep his cool while putting the ball on the turf and fired a pass to the end zone.

McLaurin was there and somehow made the catch, Washington led 7-0.

Watch the insane ending of Cowboys’ win over Commanders in Week 12

Watch all 27 minutes of the insane ending to the Dallas #Cowboys’ Week 12 win over the Washington #Commanders.

Fans of the Dallas Cowboys and Washington Commanders were on the edge of their seats while they viewed the incredibly long fourth quarter in Sunday’s NFC East matchup at Northwest Stadium.

The Commanders made a dramatic late-game comeback against the Cowboys when quarterback Jayden Daniels hit wide receiver Terry McLaurin for a long touchdown that pulled Washington within a point of Dallas.

But, when Commander’s kicker Austin Seibert missed his extra point attempt after McLaurin’s score, the Cowboys kept their one-point advantage.

Dallas took advantage of a botched onside kick in the final seconds of the game to extend their lead when Juanyeh Thomas made a slick recovery that led to a nifty return touchdown.

Take a look at the footage of the ending, which was posted on YouTube by the NFL after the game:

Expect both the Cowboys and Commanders to bring an extra edge to their next meeting on January 5 after this insane finish in Week 12.

 

Cowboys win after Commanders miss PAT following 86-yard touchdown pass

The Commanders almost had another miracle. A missed PAT ruined that.

The Washington Command needed a PAT to tie the game on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys.

They had just gotten a miracle 86-yard touchdown pass from Jayden Daniels to Terry McLaurin.

Austin Seibert missed his second PAT of the game and the Cowboys escaped with a 34-26 victory.

The missed PAT left the game at 27-26 in favor of the Cowboys.

On the onside kick attempt, Juanyeh Thomas picked it up and returned it 43 yards for the touchdown.

The argument was made that Thomas should have fallen and not scored to avoid Washington getting the ball back with 14 seconds left.

He scored and Dallas led by eight.

The game saw two kick returns for TDs, two missed PATs, and a blocked punt an NFL first.
