Summary
Magic Johnson, who owns about 4% of the Commanders, said he was in "total disbelief" after Washington failed to get off a potential game-winning field goal in a 27-27 overtime tie with the Giants.
Jayden Daniels ran out the clock in overtime with no timeouts left, but coach Dan Quinn said the sequencing was his responsibility and that the team should have either thrown outside or stopped the clock earlier.
Washington had led 27-13 with 11:05 remaining before Jameis Winston led New York to two touchdowns to force overtime.
The tie left Washington at 1-3-1, though Giants rookie kicker Dominic Zvada also missed 3 field goals in a game that could have ended differently.
