Commanders

The emotional rollercoaster

Fan misery across the game window. Up is worse.

What happened

The defense did its job, holding Miami to 16, and somehow that's still the story of a loss. M.Gay's 56-yarder sailing wide right is the gut-punch headline, but the real damage was M.Sainristil muffing the punt to hand Miami the field, and O.Gordon getting stuffed at the 3 when a touchdown would've changed everything. Two weeks off now, which feels less like a bye and more like a mercy.
