Washington Commanders Another 'Low Point' In Loss To New York Giants

Washington Redskins

Transcript

00:00 The Washington Commanders season is now on life support,

00:05 and maybe, just maybe, so is the DC career

00:09 of head coach Ron Rivera.

00:11 Mike Fisher reporting on the NFC,

00:14 and a stunning in so many ways.

00:18 31 to 19 Commanders lost to the New York Giants

00:22 on Sunday afternoon at FedEx Field.

00:24 The Commanders offense struggled mightily here,

00:27 committing six turnovers in the loss,

00:30 and was therefore unable to benefit from all the things

00:34 that the Commanders did up front defensively

00:36 that were so good.

00:38 Despite the offensive struggles,

00:39 Commanders still had a chance to win the game.

00:42 Game's final seconds, Sam Howell, who has had better days,

00:47 throws his third interception of the day,

00:48 and it ends up being a pick six for the Giants,

00:52 and that puts the game way out of reach.

00:55 Washington's lone touchdown

00:56 came at the end of the first half.

00:58 Howell had an eight-yard touchdown run.

01:01 There was a fight with Curtis Samuel in the middle of it.

01:03 There were ejections, and ultimately,

01:07 and maybe most embarrassingly,

01:08 with all due respect to Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito,

01:11 the Washington Commanders just lost

01:14 to Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito.

01:16 He had a career day with 246 passing yards,

01:19 three touchdowns, the undrafted third-string quarterback

01:23 out of Syracuse, who lives with his parents

01:27 just down the street from MetLife Stadium,

01:30 should not be able to beat a Commanders team

01:34 that came into the season thinking playoffs,

01:36 and even more recently,

01:38 thought we could still get it turned around.

01:39 At four and seven now,

01:42 Ron Rivera said the very truth in the postgame

01:47 when he said, "This is a low point,"

01:50 and even Coach Rivera's greatest supporters might say

01:54 and might agree,

01:55 "It may only get one little bit lower than this."

02:00 Final score as the Commanders don't get it done

02:03 against the lowly Giants, 31-19,

02:06 New York over Washington.

02:07 Fish out.
