On a beautiful November afternoon in New England, Washington came ready to play!
Yes, there were some bad turnovers that helped this game be a lot closer than it should have been, but when push came to shove, the defense stood tall and held the Patriots’ offense in check most of the game - this without their top two EDGE rushers, who were traded earlier in the week.
Overall, Eric Bieniemy called a good game offensively. Sam Howell and the offense put up 432 total yards and converted nine of seventeen third down attempts in route to racking up 23 first downs on the afternoon and controlling time of possession 37-23 minutes.
