District of Sports: The Washington Commanders tie that feels like a loss

Podcast

Baffling, befuddling end-of-game management across the board cost the Washington Commanders a chance at a win over the New York Giants in Week 5, settling instead for an embarrassing 27-27 tie.

George Gerbo and Liam Griffin parse the good, bad and the ugly from a bizarre day at Northwest Stadium, including the roles of coach Dan Quinn, quarterback Jayden Daniels and offensive coordinator David Blough in the game-ending blunder; how the seeds for the outcome were sown earlier due to Washington’s miscues and penalties; and how the Commanders move forward now entrenched at the bottom of the NFC East.
