Commanders’ Dan Quinn calls out major culprit in brutal ending to Giants game

The Washington Commanders ended Week 5 with a 27-27 tie against the New York Giants, a rare outcome in a football game. Coach Dan Quinn, during the postgame press conference, admitted that he was responsible for the team's overtime blunder. He expressed his disappointment, stating that the team prides itself on end-of-game moments and that going early to stop the clock would have prevented the situation.

Quinn was gutted for his team, especially considering they were within field goal range of a win. The Commanders' season record stands at 1-3-1 after this result. However, there is a silver lining as quarterback Jayden Daniels performed well, with 199 passing yards, 68.0% completion rate, and 103 rushing yards and two touchdowns.

The team will next face the San Francisco 49ers on October 19 in a primetime "Monday Night Football" matchup.
