00:00
Let's go back to last night.
00:02
That game was fantastic and I was really pleased
00:05
because I bet on Washington and the cardiac,
00:09
you know, commanders there, it's unbelievable.
00:13
The six wins with, is it under 10 seconds left or overtime?
00:20
That is crazy that they won all these games
00:23
with no time left or in overtime.
00:25
Yeah, they have been very good
00:27
at getting this done this year
00:29
and this Washington commander team,
00:30
they've been on a little bit of a magic carpet ride
00:34
throughout this season.
00:35
Whether you look back at the Hail Mary game
00:38
against the Bears, the Eagle game,
00:40
they've had a lot of these games
00:41
that have come down to the very end
00:43
and they get it done again in Tampa last night, 23 to 20.
00:47
Their first playoff win since 2005
00:52
was the last time Washington had won a playoff game.
00:56
Jaden Daniels, of course, getting it done,
00:58
304 total yards and two touchdowns.
01:00
But at the end, you needed a kick from Zane Gonzalez
01:04
to send them to the divisional round
01:06
and it just gets in there on Westwood One Sports.
01:09
Left hash mark from 37, Tressway the hole.
01:14
Tyler Ott, the staff, from hash mark left
01:17
for the commander's win.
01:19
The kick is up, it sails on the way,
01:22
hits the upright and goes through.
01:26
He knocks it through and wins the game, 23-20.
01:33
The commanders win in the postseason
01:37
for the first time in 19 years.
01:41
Did you see him, I don't make fun of anybody
01:45
with OCD or anything, did you see him like freaking out
01:47
before the kick when he was doing his hair?
01:50
Before he put the helmet on, took it off,
01:52
did it again, did it again, did it again?
01:55
My man's tripping, he's so nervous I thought
01:59
that what a lucky kick, it went off the upright.
02:03
Hey, but they won, they won because of their quarterback.
02:07
Jaden Daniels is a absolute superstar in the making.
02:11
He's a stud and he is ice water in his veins
02:15
when it comes to big pressure plays in fourth downs
02:19
and making things happen.
02:20
And I think that Tampa lost the game
02:23
when Baker Manfield fumbled.
02:26
Yep, I thought the Bucs made a lot of mistakes last night.
02:31
That was obviously the biggest, that fumble
02:33
that gave Washington the ball in plus plus territory.
02:37
But I thought that Bowles, I thought Bowles
02:40
was outcoached by Dan Quinn last night.
02:43
I thought that Quinn, you saw him go
02:45
on multiple fourth downs, he was very aggressive
02:48
in the game, he made all the right,
02:50
he pushed all the right buttons
02:52
and Bowles did what he usually does.
02:54
He's very conservative, the Bucs made the playoffs
02:57
this year because they let Baker Manfield
02:59
throw the ball all over the place.
03:01
What do you have last night?
03:02
Like 19, 10, 20, I just felt like he didn't do enough
03:06
or completions, he didn't do enough last night
03:08
throwing the football and they made some mistakes.
03:11
You needed to let Baker try and do his thing last night
03:14
and they didn't, speaking of all those fourth downs,
03:16
here is Dan Quinn, of course, rolling the dice,
03:21
riverboat Dan, we can call him
03:23
and it worked out very well for him.
03:25
Today, early on, we got stopped, I believe on our first one
03:28
not certain of that, but it wasn't gonna stop us
03:31
into that spot, we were going to be bold, but not reckless.
03:35
And I think that's who we are, you know, the whole season
03:39
but when you do get stopped early, you just have to stay
03:43
the course knowing that, hey, keep your chin tucked
03:45
and keep swinging, knowing that this is gonna be a game
03:48
that's gonna go all the way down to the end.
03:52
But didn't they fake a punt too?
03:53
Like they had it all going, look, how about no punts?
03:59
And it's happened three times with this football team.
04:04
They don't punt, they just, they get first downs
04:07
and they go for it on fourth down and they make it.
04:10
This team, I think McLaurin and Daniels are really special
04:16
and really, I think the rest of them
04:18
are just a bunch of grinders.
04:19
I don't think they have any superstar players
04:21
besides Jaden Daniels and McLaurin.
04:24
I mean, he did it again with just magnificent catches
04:28
and they're a fun team to watch, I'll tell you what
04:31
I think they're gonna give Detroit problems.
