In 3 starts as an NFL quarterback (including postseason), Taylor Heinicke of Washington has completed 93 passes.

That's the most completions by any QB over his first 3 career starts in NFL history pic.twitter.com/HekmzUWD8S

Taylor Heinicke is the first QB since at least 1978 with a go-ahead Pass TD, an interception and a game-winning drive in the final 5 minutes of regulation —all on 3 separate drives (per @EliasSports). pic.twitter.com/8J3NYZn6MP

The only question left: Who will present Heinicke in Canton?

Heinicke said his mom and stepdad were at the game along with aunt and uncle. He was able to hug his mom after the game. “Pretty cool moment” pic.twitter.com/MbYv52ODvN

Heinicke points out that James Bradberry overlapped with him on the Panthers. On the INT: "I think he'd seen that play before."

— michael phillips (@michaelpRTD) September 17, 2021

Speaking of former teams, J.D. McKissic, a guy who spent three years in Seattle, just compared Heinicke's demeanor on the game-winning drive to Russell Wilson.

Two legendary quarterbacks with Virginia ties.

I’m not sure we’re making enough of the fact that

Ricky Seals-Jones

caught a fourth-quarter touchdown tonight

— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) September 17, 2021

What's incredible about this TD pass from Heinicke is that he checked the route and moved off it, before deciding to go back to it and give Ricky Seals-Jones a chance. And boy did he make the most of that chance... pic.twitter.com/LGP3cuc0T6

Jonathan Allen is the best D-lineman on this team right now

McLaurin follows up a great route wiht a nice catch. Ball a liitle bit behind but McLaurin makes the adjustment look easy and pulls it in for the TD pic.twitter.com/VEHptfHCNl

How many fucking times have our players tripped on this supposedly great new field?

This is a flag on Chase Young?

— Pro Football Network (@PFN365) September 17, 2021

And, FWIW, that's a tough call on Young. But the D still didn't play well overall. Again. They have a 1st round LB that can't get on the field unless in base.

— John Keim (@john_keim) September 17, 2021

Nice job by rookie LB Jamin Davis to attach to the route and make a solid tackle to get off the field on third down. pic.twitter.com/We9zhJ4MqB

Gosh, if only our defense could play average to keep up with our elite offense we might have a chance

“We need to make Taylor Heinicke play as a quarterback” - Joe Judge

He’s throwing 81%, dude … and your QB is the leading rusher for your team

On the McKissic TD - Heinicke spotted the bubble to the left side of the line pre-snap, walked up to the OL and changed the call. Walk in TD for McKissic, odd look by the Giants pic.twitter.com/khF1QtIM8H

Before tonight, JD McKissic's career-long reception was 29 yards.

In the fourth quarter, he broke loose for 56. Basically doubled his previous best

— Pete Hailey (@PeteHaileyNBCS) September 17, 2021

Late night thought experiment question;

Does Taylor Heinicke 'qualify' for Comeback Player of the Year?

He's not coming back from anything, but he's also not a rookie...

I genuinely don't know.

— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) September 17, 2021

Kenny Golladay and Daniel Jones caught on camera screaming at each other on the sidelines with three minutes to go in a one-point game.

That's a good look.

— Ralph Vacchiano (@RVacchianoSNY) September 17, 2021

Daniel Jones was asked several times for clarity on Kenny Golladay shouting on the sidelines: “I think he was just frustrated at the situation. I don’t really think it was to me or anyone else.” #NYGvsWAS pic.twitter.com/ZWNIMECudr

— Kimberley A. Martin (@ByKimberleyA) September 17, 2021

Sterling Shepard said people are misunderstanding the exchange between Jones and Golladay… He also praised Daniel Jones for doing everything you could ask for in the game #NYGvsWAS pic.twitter.com/0GcqvT6whi

— Kimberley A. Martin (@ByKimberleyA) September 17, 2021

It's hard to tell on TV, but is Kenny Golladay just not open? Seems like the Giants are paying him a lot of money to just ignore him for an entire game.

— Ralph Vacchiano (@RVacchianoSNY) September 17, 2021

We are a laughing stock of an organization.

We are a factory of sadness.

We are the new Cleveland Browns.

There were 20 combined penalties for 161 combined yards in this game. (11-81, #NYG) including one that wiped out a Daniel Jones TD & (9-80 #WFT).

Officially all eight field goal attempts were made but...

— Chris Russell AKA The Rooster (@Russellmania621) September 17, 2021

The #WashingtonFootball was only 4/13 on third-down but 2-2 on fourth down. A huge key on the first TD drive was going hurry up on a 4th down QB sneak after a failed 3rd/1. Overall -- 6-15 feels better.

— Chris Russell AKA The Rooster (@Russellmania621) September 17, 2021

Jonathan Allen: "I would say we played very similar to last week. We did just enough to get the win, but moving forward, we just have to do better." #WashingtonFootball

Washington is 4-1 in the white-on-white unis under Ron Rivera.

Week 14: 23-15 win over San Francisco
Week 17: 20-14 win over Philadelphia
Wild Card: 31-23 loss to Tampa Bay

As @FieldYates noted, Taylor Heinicke earned an extra $125,000 for this win. His contract includes a "club game win bonus" that gives him $125K each for up to 12 wins in which he plays at least 60% of Washington's offensive snaps.

What's great about the NFL is that a single.sequence can change the entire narrative about a team. If there's no flag on the first miss, WFT is in deep doodoo. But thanks to the penalty, they're at .500. Still SOOOoOOo much to correct, but the win helps a ton
