The Washington Football Team’s defense has kept this game close, but there needs to be more conversion of opportunity in the second half if they’re going to win.

At the half, the Washington Football Team leads the 49ers 13-7. They’ve managed to earn the lead, courtesy of a stingy defense, but the offense has struggled to gain consistent momentum.
