Transcript

00:00 It's the greatest preseason win of all time, or

00:05 the greatest preseason loss of all time, Mike Fisher reporting on Washington versus

00:09 Baltimore, the commanders win it in the end, preseason week number two, 29-28.

00:15 On a late field goal, they do so

00:18 to put a cap on a very eventful Monday night.

00:23 That includes new Washington owner Josh Harris and his appearance,

00:28 the fans enjoyment of that.

00:30 His appearance, of course, includes hanging out with Joe Buck and

00:33 Troy Aikman on ESPN Monday Night Football and

00:36 the awkward handshake that will go down in infamy.

00:41 Also down is the Ravens impressive, for what it is, 24 game preseason win streak.

00:48 The commanders made fun of that before the game, made fun of that after the game,

00:53 sarcastically suggesting this must be the greatest win ever since we just broke

00:57 the greatest streak ever.

00:58 Sam Howell looked very good for Washington.

01:02 There is a great deal of confidence now that if Sam Howell is as good as he's

01:07 looked, that the commanders are contenders in the NFC East,

01:13 which is a grueling place to try to be a contender.

01:16 Baltimore gets to take pride in that streak, and Coach Harbaugh makes a great point.

01:23 It does speak to the character and talent of players.

01:28 Even though preseason is just preseason, it's not happenstance that they've

01:33 had success over the course of years in the exhibition season.

01:37 Terry McLaurin, the scary Terry of Washington,

01:41 that may be the biggest story coming out of this thing.

01:43 There is clearly an injury issue, the x-rays were negative, but

01:47 there is speculation that that is turf toe.

01:50 And then of course, when it comes to Washington,

01:51 there is the resonating issue that just won't go away.

01:56 The idea that Coach Ron Rivera is on the hot seat, and

02:00 that maybe everybody in the organization is on the hot seat.

02:04 One more week of preseason football and then the Ravens get to do it for real.

02:07 Washington gets to do it for real as well.

02:11 And we put in the books a very eventful Monday night as Washington snaps

02:17 the 24 game preseason win streak of the Ravens with a last second 29-28 victory.

02:23 Fish out.
