The Washington Commanders are heading to the NFC divisional round after defeating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers 23-20 on "Sunday Night Football."
With the score tied at 20, the Commanders regained possession with 4:41 remaining in the game and a chance to win. Quarterback Jayden Daniels led Washington on a 10-play, 51-yard drive that concluded with a game-winning 37-yard field goal from Zane Gonzalez as time expired.
The Commanders' victory marks the franchise's first playoff win since the 2005 NFC wild-card game. It snaps the NFL's third-longest active playoff-win drought, according to ESPN Research.
