The Washington Commanders scored 10 points in the 1st half, after scoring 8 and 10 points total in the last two weeks. They couldn’t stop the Titans final drive of the half which resulted in a Derrick Henry touchdown run which gave Tennessee the lead again. Penalties extended that drive after a roughing the passer foul was called on Efe Obada. Washington gets the ball to start the 2nd half.
1st Quarter
Coin toss:
Tails never fails, except for today. Washington wins the toss and defers. Titans up first.

Jonathan Allen pressure:
BOOM.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
Jon Allen SMOKED Ryan Tannehill on 3rd down to force the incomplete throw and get the defense off the field!#HTTC | @jonallen93_ pic.twitter.com/HhbwFt988F
3 and out:
A decent start to series for #Commanders but a fumbled snap (even though it was a 3-yard gain) and a drop by Curtis Samuel on 3rd down ends it quickly.

Montez Sweat vs Derrick Henry:
"Montez Sweat is having a DAY".
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
Stops Derrick Henry for a 4 yard loss here. Huge from #90!#HTTC | @_sweat9 pic.twitter.com/pEjxctHVeb
Offsetting penalties:
Casey Toohill pressured Ryan Tannhelli on 3rd and 7, forcing a throw-away.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) October 9, 2022
However, offsetting penalties include illegal contact on Cole Holcomb. Do over.
3rd down stop:
Good safety coverage from Darrick Forest there on the deep shot from Tannehill.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
He was right there and got his hand up. #HTTC
Brian Robinson’s NFL first carry:
Brian Robinson's first NFL carry looked great!

(Unfortunately, in Washington Commanders classic style, it was called back for a holding penalty)#HTTC | @BrianR_4 pic.twitter.com/qWGTmOsBbe
3 and out:
Not the most inspiring play-call or execution on 3rd and 17.
— Ben Standig (@BenStandig) October 9, 2022
Back-to-back 3-and-outs for an offense that scored seven points in the first half since Week 1.
Bad punt from Tress Way:
Uncharacteristic bad punt from Tress Way.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
We single him out for great punts every week, so he's playing with house money.
But gives the Titans a short field here for sure.
Titans TD:

Big play Curtis Samuel:
Deep completion from Wentz to Samuel for 32 yards!

No flag:
Terry McLaurin just got tackled roughly three times on his route. One of the more egregious acts by a DB I've ever seen. No flag though

Bad snap:
Bad snap on 3rd down and the Commanders offensive drive ends with a Field Goal.

Nick Martin at Center today, and the snaps have quietly been an issue all season across multiple Center's.#HTTC pic.twitter.com/dMBwsAFfnn
FG:
7-3. Joey Slye 50-yarder.

Scott Turner is back up in the booth for today's game. Washington's OC had been on the sidelines for this season after hanging upstairs last year

Montez Sweat:
No holding call on Montez Sweat here.

SACK
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
Montez Sweat is DOMINANT today.
Two sacks in the first two quarters and he's everywhere. #HTTC | @_sweat9 pic.twitter.com/c2ZV5Appwe
2nd Quarter
Dyami Brown TD:
TOUCHDOWN
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
Dyami Brown on a 75 yard BOMB.
Once Dyami hits top-speed on a go-route y'all ain't catching him!#HTTC | @deuce2_ pic.twitter.com/AVvw9eJkIF
Looks like Scott Turner heard all your complaints about the play-action game. First play of the drive, play-action shot to Dyami Brown for 75-yard TD #Commanders pic.twitter.com/UOghIwE89a

Benjamin St-Juste in/William Jackson out:
No injury reported for William Jackson, per a team official. https://t.co/mebYFQgQ0E
— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) October 9, 2022
This is the third defensive series with Benjamin St-Juste in at corner and William Jackson on the sidelines. Appears the veteran has been benched. Will hear more from Ron Rivera post-game on the decision and what it means going forward.

Alabama Wall:
COVERAGE SACK!

They've been so rare in Washington and it's beautiful to finally see.

Terry McLaurin earning every yard:
Terry McLaurin is a hard man to tackle.

25 yard reception, where the first contact came after 6~ yards.

No flag:
Dyami Brown wanted a flag for DPI here.
— Chad Ryan (@ChadwikoTWW) October 9, 2022
No call.#HTTC pic.twitter.com/gO1Yzg7c0d
On the very next play, the Commanders wanted DPI here against McLaurin which was also not called.#HTTC pic.twitter.com/RaXLc2czKW

Ryan Tannehill, Escape artist:
Hell of a job by Tannehill to get rid of this ball and pick up the first down despite having Montez Sweat all over him pic.twitter.com/TbVvNqjwyV
— Mark Bullock (@MarkBullockNFL) October 9, 2022
Jamin Davis:
Continued improvement from Jamin Davis in coverage. Like we saw last week when walked out over the slot, much tighter to the receiver, taking away path inside, in position to contest throw outside. pic.twitter.com/0CBQ6Hn78N

Efe Obada penalty:
That's Efe Obada's second questionable football IQ poor play in last week...
— Chris Russell AKA the ! (@Russellmania621) October 9, 2022
Terrible RTP penalty on 3rd down stop extends drive after blocked EPA and weird chase/not knowing what to do vs. #Cowboys. #Commanders
Derrick Henry TD:
Touchdown Titans. On third-and-goal from the 1-yard line, Derrick Henry runs in the score to give Tennessee the lead with 17 seconds left. The score after Randy Bullock extra point: TEN 14, WAS 10
