With the Commanders holding a narrow 12-7 lead late in the fourth quarter, the Bears mounted a critical 62-yard drive that culminated in a one-yard touchdown run by running back Roschon Johnson with just 23 seconds left . This turn of events presented Washington with a daunting task: they had to cover 76 yards in a matter of moments to retake the victory.
Determined not to give up, Daniels quickly rallied his team. An 11-yard pass to tight end Zach Ertz and a subsequent 13-yard connection to wide receiver Terry McLaurin brought the Commanders to their own 48-yard line. Given the decision, the team opted for the high-risk “Hail Mary” strategy rather than attempting an unlikely long field goal.
As time expired, Daniels unleashed a powerful downward throw. The ball was tipped but accidentally landed in the hands of wide receiver Noah Brown, who completed the game-winning 52-yard touchdown. This electrifying finish not only left Commanders fans on the edge of their seats, but also showcased Daniels' remarkable composure under pressure.
The piece stunned fans and analysts, including Daniels' mother, Regina Jackson. After the game, she expressed her amazement on social media, posting a thinking face emoji in response to her son's incredible performance. This simple gesture resonated with many, reflecting the collective confusion and excitement of fans who witnessed the stunning finish.

When asked about his defining moment on the field, Daniels humbly attributed his success to God. “Nothing but God, man. Nothing but God. Without him I don't think I would be playing this week. All glory be to God.” This statement reflects his strong faith and gratitude and endears him even more to fans. Looking ahead, the Commanders are 6-2 heading into an NFC East matchup against the New York Giants.
