NFL insider Adam Schefter expects consequences for the Washington Commanders following their controversial tie against an unnamed opponent in a game that ended on Sunday. During overtime, the Commanders had possession but failed to attempt a potential winning field goal from 42 yards out due to poor clock management by coach Dan Quinn and quarterback Jayden Daniels. Former NFL head coach Rex Ryan called it "the dumbest thing I’ve ever seen" and suggested Quinn could face repercussions similar to those experienced after Super Bowl LI when he was the Falcons' defensive coordinator.

Story summary
Jayden Daniels returned to play for the Washington Commanders against the New York Giants on Sunday, after missing two games due to a dislocated left elbow. Despite wearing a protective brace, Daniels completed several passes and led an early touchdown drive in the first quarter. However, both teams struggled with mistakes throughout the game, leading to a 27-27 tie at rain-soaked Northwest Stadium in Landover, Maryland. The Giants initially had chances to win but lost possession due to fumbles by Cam Skattebo. Meanwhile, the Commanders squandered clock management opportunities in overtime, ending the game without attempting a potential winning field goal.

Why this leaning score
This article does not take a side on a contested political
question, so it has no leaning score. That is an
answer rather than a gap: a match report or a rescue can be warmly
or critically written without being left or right, and scoring it
anyway is how approval of a subject gets recorded as a political
position.

On Monday’s edition of “Get Up,” Schefter compared the mistake by Dan Quinn and the Commanders that led to a 27-27 tie in overtime to the aftermath of the Miracle at the Meadowlands — the infamous Giants fumble against the Eagles in 1978 that cost offensive coordinator Bob Gibson his job the following morning and head coach John McVay his job at the end of the season.
“There were consequences, and we don’t know when it’ll be, but I would imagine in time there’s going to be consequences from this game,” Schefter said.
