Doink heard round the world!
The Washington Commanders are going to the divisional round of the playoffs for the first time in 20 years. The Cardiac Commanders became the Clutch Commanders after finishing their fifth game in a row on the last play. This week ended with Jayden Daniels driving the team down to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers’ 19-yard line with 3 seconds left on the clock.
Zane Gonzalez got the call for the 37-yard field goal and everyone held their breath(except for Jayden Daniels). Gonzalez hit the right upright, but unlike doinks from other games, this one went in and sealed the victory for the Commanders. Washington advances to face the Detroit Lions, while the Tampa Bay Buccaneers try to figure out how their offense was kept off the field for most of the second half.
Our friends at BreakingT have a new t-shirt to celebrate the Divisional Doink, and the Washington Commanders playoff victory!
