  "account": "On Sunday, the Washington Commanders made a mistake that will be a source of ridicule for the rest of the season. The Commanders entered field goal range with under a minute remaining but chose not to attempt a 42-yard field goal. Instead, they threw the ball out of bounds, clocked it, and sent Drew Stevens to attempt the kick. Head coach Dan Quinn accepted full responsibility for the late-game gaffe, stating that he was responsible for the sequence of events. He explained that the right call would have been to clock the play early and avoid putting the team in that spot. Quinn was also questioned about quarterback Jayden Daniels' role in the play, but he emphasized that the decision to clock the ball or throw the ball out of bounds was his responsibility.",
