Washington Football Team attempts the worst QB sneak ever

Originally posted on DC Sports King  |  By King Motley  |  Last updated 9/26/21

There were not many things that went right for the Washington Football Team Sunday against the Buffalo Bills. Washington was beaten on both sides of the ball, losing 43-21. 

Quarterback Taylor Heinicke threw two interceptions and the defense was picked apart by Bills quarterback Josh Allen, who threw four touchdowns and ran for another.

However, a failed quarterback sneak in the fourth quarter exemplified just how bad the game went for Washington. 

Down 36-14 in the fourth quarter with just under 12 minutes remaining, Washington was faced with a fourth-and-1 from their own 23-yard line. Ron Rivera rolled the dice trying to spark his team.

Unfortunately, the Washington offensive line got no push against the Bills front. Heinicke lowered his head and ran into a brick wall before linebacker Matt Milano flattened the QB. 

Washington turned over the ball on downs. Then the defense allowed Allen to put the finishing touches on the game with a two-yard touchdown run. 

The loss drops the Washington Football Team to a 1-2 record on the season and leaves a lot of questions about both the offense and defense.
