The banged-up Commanders, who were playing without rookie left tackle Brandon Coleman, lost Cornelius Lucas during the game, and had their rookie signal caller dealing with a rib injury, marched the ball up and down the field against a good Chicago defense all game long, amassing 481 total yards of offense. The issue - they could not find the endzone until the game’s final play.
Washington had a touchdown dropped by tight end Zach Ertz as he went to the ground in the endzone, and had one called back on a very questionable illegal man downfield call against Sam Cosmi on a screen to Olamide Zaccheaus.
