The electric Hail Mary throw in Week 8 from Jayden Daniels to Noah Brown, which led the to a nail-biting victory over the Chicago Bears was one of those exhilarating moments that NFL fans will talk about for many years to come. But there's more to the story than sheer luck, as Terry McLaurin divulged.
According to McLaurin, the Commanders' leading wide receiver, the secret behind that game-changing 52-yard touchdown at Northwest Stadium was not a spur of the moment. He emphasized to reporters, including Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post, that this miraculous play was the result of meticulous preparation.
"We're always practicing the formation. We know who's gonna be the tip guy, who's gonna be the back-end guy. We know who's going to be the front on the left and the front on the right. I think if you look it up on film, we were pretty much all in our spots."
McLaurin pointed out the two key ingredients to the Commanders' winning formula: superior coaching and strategic planning. These factors have played pivotal roles in transforming the Commanders into a winning team.
At the heart of this transformation is the Commanders' dynamic playmaker - Jayden Daniels. The rookie quarterback has been instrumental in the team's success, thanks to his exceptional arm strength, thrilling rushing skills, and a natural knack for making spectacular plays.
