Washington Commanders vs Chicago Bears


 Lost in the end. feels under pressure, takes a

lot of sacks. avoids one here and does what he

does best, uses those legs to pick up a nice gain.

kirk: he was trying to get that quick throw out and was defended

but they caught it. first down.

fields has some time. pocket breaks down, and down he

goes. the receiver is recovered, took

it is just like a lot of guys, transitioning from college to

the pros, just has to get comfortable.

al: third and 19, look out. down he goes, back at the 30

yard line. two sacks after a promising

down of the backfield. under heat, and down he goes at

the 17 yard line. the corn brisker, a rookie,

hest total in 22 years. and they start here second drive

from the 34 yard line. fiel

fields buys times, fires, that\'s caught, on the run into the 30

yard line goes dante pettis. so, halfway through the quarter,

quick pass out here. maybe got it.

they will need to measure. they are going to go with it on

fourth and inches and fields is going to take it himself and the

forward progress be able to net the first down.

al: instead, no flag. second down and five.

jones. got into the end zone last week

fabulous name. second down and goal.

fields. knocked in the air, and the

commanders come down with it? they do.

so, deflected up into the air, and a pick off at the five yard

al: second and 10. fired, caught, nice grab over

the middle. taken there by cole turner,

rookie out of nevada. kirk: this is a great throw

he\'s unbeaten on thursday, 6-0, 15 touchdowns, two picks.

and he takes the snap here. here comes the blitz and he

avoids it for the moment, but then roquan smith came straight

through the middle, almost unimpeded, and takes him down.

herbert is now running back. he has had some good

performances this year, averaging six yards per carry.

breaking tackles. herbert into washington

territory, fields blocked. first and goal from the seven.

braxton jones got all the way down there.

fields surveying. he will take off.

can he get in? he will get stopped just shy

fourth and goal. herbert.

can he get in? no signal yet.

washington thinks they have stopped him.

and for the moment it appears they have.

go figure. can\'t get it in.

to the outside. he picks up 12.

kirk: that video of roger staubach, the late 1970\'s, the

third down and four. let\'s coming.

49 yard line. curtis samuel, the intended

on the ground. and again that 18 here by

mckissick coming out of the backfield.

kirk: that is the first drive we have seen with the commanders

al: carson wentz. to that end zone.

mclaurin, cannot make the catch. jaylon johnson covering.

powered by a dead u.s.. -- aws.

how do we do? as they say, points on the

along the way, you tried to adjust fields or allow fields to

run a different kind of system.

al: 0-5 on third-down. fields will take off.

to the 40 yard line. that took 12 seconds.

emphasis on building a defense. one of their number one draft

picks in 2018 -- fields, he has to move away.

throat caught. 46 yard line.

45. you have four seconds.

the clock is stopped. fields is down, again.

looking downfield. he will launch one.

a lot of action in the end zone. and it is broken up at the very

end. for a moment, it looked like it

might be caught in the end zone, but to the turf it drops, and

-- and the passing game. al: robinson.

and, he fights his way for what should be a first down.

and will be. smith knocks him out of bounds

the 36 outline. coming around, mclaurin.

he takes a real shot, gets to the 42 yard line.

that is jackson four with number to take him down.

give carson wentz time. al: third and four.

two -- -- two. carson wentz will go down.

gets to the outside gets out of the pocket.

al: third and eight.

al: first down. jones, to convert and long and

on to this. al: no challenge.

third and 3 from the outside. montgomery.

he gets the first down and more and that brings the crowd alive

combination of the line and holding onto the ball too long.

al: schofield taking the spot. and throw is caught and goes

loaming. so the bears are on the move!

corner wants to tackle. al: no-huddle.

fields. he is going to be caught schm

for a touchdown. pettis.

down. a good start for the commanders

five first downs. third and goal.

wentz, tip. incomplete.

al: slye. and field goal.

from 28. not by much.

but through it goes to make it a 7-# game and we are back in 30

get the ball out from the edge. al: shaken up.

and as fields hangs in there. and breaks away.

and that\'s what he does so well. turns a sack into a gain.

al: herbert, the tailback. and herbert gets out of the

backfield. a minimal gain.

wanted to pass on one of them and turned out to be a fields\'

run for a first down. fields, chased, spins and cannot

get away. cannot get away.

yards tonight. can he get to six here.

gipson makes that catch and fourth down.

al: sixth punt of the night. and averaging 50 yards per boot.

jones\' back inside his 20. field dropped at the 10-yard

line! and a scramble for it.

at the 5-yard line! and who has it.

meaning washington and the officials say, you are correct!

al: brian robinson in the backfield.

samuel in motion. give it to robinson.

to the outside he goes. and robinson takes the ball to

the 1-yard line. wentz took smith out of the

second and goal. robinson and he will get into

the end zone for a touchdown! and two months ago, the kid is

wondering can he play again after he was shot twice and here

he is in soldier field taking it into the end zone.

lead, little more than halfway through the fourth.

wentz. back peddling and fires into the

end zone and incomplete. washington for the first time,

133 through the air. montgomery again.

good run. should have the first down.

al: third and 11. low throw.

pettis makes the catch. and only gets a couple of yards

and say incomplete and now you have a fourth down and 11.

the bears. fourth and 16.

al: have to get to the 32 to keep the drive alive.

fields, surveying, throws and not court by smith march set.

points next week. al: and watching and start here

with a first down and a lot more taking it to the 35-yard line.

and brian robinson. 15 carries for 57 yards.

from the 33-yard line. chicago with one time-out and

take it and stop them here and they do at the 30-yard line and

wind has died. al: 48-yard attempt.

trying to make it 15-7. and he does not!

so the bears are much alive getting the ball from the spot

line to start this drive. al: 1:49.

fields low pressure snap. gathers it and it\'s knocked down

and montgomery and allen busting it up.

and allen is back in there. al: at the 33-yard line.

second down and the pass to the outside court.

and it will be third down. kirk: allen comes up with that

from the outside to montgomery and slips through to the 44, he

goes. kirk: when you get the ball

in the open c1

kirk: very instinctive in the open field.

al: fields. first down and a lot more!

fields is inside the 20, takes it to the six!

kirk: the worst thing this defense can do is cover

third down and goal. fields surveys.

and throws and it is not cot by pettus.

could not bring it in. he is down.

from the 4. fake toss.

to the end zone and it is juggled, did he catch it?

no, he did not. incomplete.

mooney. for the moment it looked like he

might have it. he does not.

officials going over. kirk: i think he called it a

he goes up. boy.

when does he have control of it? it is bobbled.

by the time he gets control, he is back outside the goal line.

if he holds onto it there, he\'s across the goal line, he\'s in,

but he doesn\'t. he gets control outside of the

goal line. you can\'t get any closer than

that. kirk: the left elbow comes down

out of bounds right there. it is irrelevant.

they dropped to 2-4. al: and washington goes to 2-4

as they snap a four game skid. final play for the bears,

mooney... the elbow was out of bounds

anyway. that close.
