The Commanders have established an identity as the disruptive upstart that no one wants to play. They kept that streak alive by playing for a tie against the Giants, to completely mess with everyone’s playoff projections.
SOME STATISTICS
This game featured Taylor Heinicke’s second fourth-quarter comeback this season and the sixth of his career in Washington. The fourth-quarter drive to pull even with 1:45 remaining featured several clutch completions by the much-maligned backup QB, including a 20-yard strike to Curtis Samuel on 4th and 4, a deep shot to Samuel for 20 yards and a 28-yard touchdown pass to Jahan Dotson, featuring one of the best spin moves to break a tackle ever by a Washington rookie WR.
