The Washington Commanders still have a chance to win the NFC East. On Sunday, despite five turnovers, quarterback Jayden Daniels found wide receiver Jamison Crowder for a nine-yard touchdown with six seconds remaining to give the Commanders a 34-33 lead.
Head coach Dan Quinn called for the two-point conversion, and running back Jeremy McNichols converted, making it 36-33. All that was left was the kickoff.
Good news for the Commanders: Philadelphia’s last-ditch effort failed, and they came away with their third consecutive win to snap the Eagles’ 10-game winning streak.
It was Crowder’s second touchdown of the season — both came on Sunday — and Daniels’ fifth touchdown pass of the day.

It was Washington’s first win against a team with a winning record, and the Commanders improved to 10-5 with two games remaining.
Daniels finished the day completing 24 of 39 passes for 258 yards with five touchdowns and two interceptions. He also led Washington with 81 rushing yards.
Next up for the Commanders is a matchup against fellow rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. and the Atlanta Falcons next week.
