Dan Quinn’s “Tell the Truth Monday”
Dan Quinn spoke to the media for “Tell the Truth Monday”. The Washington Commanders dominated the Chicago Bears for most of the game, but had trouble punching the ball into the end zone, settling for three first half field goals. They allowed the Bears to take their first lead, and got the ball back with only 19 seconds on the clock.
Jayden Daniels was dealing with a rib injury, but had led the team to this point, and had one last drive left in him for the night. He got the team to the 48 yard line, but threw the Hail Mary from his own 35 yard line. The ball was tipped into the waiting hands of Noah Brown and Northwest Stadium exploded with surprise and joy. Quinn said the team’s last drive was a badass example of who this team is.

Different angles of the Hail Mary:
Dan Quinn time. He started his time with us by focusing on the final 12 seconds.
“A really bad ass example of who this team is.”
Said he also loved all the videos showing the moment from different angles. Mentioned Trent Scott chest-bumping Tavita Pritchard to the ground.

Jayden Daniels:
Quinn was pleased with Daniels’ performance. Said the qb is sore, but that’s the case with the rest of the team and typical after a tough game
