Dan Quinn and Jayden Daniels talk about 4th downs, another loss, and the mini-bye before the Cowboys

November 15, 2024 by Hogs Haven


Dan Quinn speaks to the media after

Dan Quinn talked to reporters after the Washington Commanders 26-18 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. He opened up the presser by addressing the team’s decision to go for it on 4th and 2 at the Eagles 26-yard line in the 4th quarter. Washington was down 12-10 at that point, and could have taken a 1-point lead with 8:01 left on the clock. Quinn said they knew they had to be aggressive on the road against a tough division rival, but the execution wasn’t there on the play. He called it a bold call to go for it there, but it was the right call in that situation. Philadelphia’s offense was moving the ball, and they had just scored the go-ahead touchdown on their previous drive.

Quinn was asked about Jayden Daniels rib injury that continues to get worked on, on the the sidelines during games. He said it wasn’t a factor in tonight’s game like he was two weeks ago against the Bears. Quinn said they knew the adversity would come, and this was a tough stretch of games for them. They need to improve, and if they want to be the team they think they can be, they need to close games like this when they have the opportunity.

Dan Quinn said Jayden Daniels was not hindered by the rib injury. Said Daniels was limited by it in the Chicago game, but it has improved and he wasn’t affected by it in this game.

Adversity:

Dan Quinn: “We knew that adversity comes. … Tonight’s hard. It’s a difficult four or five game stretch or whatever it is. … To be the team we can be, those have to go down on our terms. … We’ll get there, but over the last two weeks we haven’t been able to express that.”

— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) November 15, 2024

Closing games:

Dan Quinn: “To be the heavy hitters we want to be, we got to close.”

— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) November 15, 2024

Terry McLaurin’s lack of targets:

Dan Quinn on Terry McLaurin not being targeted in the first half: “Yeah, it wasn’t going that way … but you’re right, our explosive plays get generated from Terry. It’s such a big part of what we do. If somebody had said, ‘Hey, we’re taking this player away, we’re doubling or…

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 15, 2024

Daniels said on the fourth down play he needed to call the cadence louder. Crowd was loud. The timing of the snap was off.

— John Keim (@john_keim) November 15, 2024

Rib injury:

Jayden Daniels, on if he’s healthy enough to do all that he typically can at QB: “If I wasn’t, I wouldn’t be on the field right now.”

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 15, 2024

Jayden Daniels: “I’m frustrated that we lost. I don’t like losing. … I feel like everybody could play better, including myself. It starts with me and trickles down to everybody else.”

— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) November 15, 2024

Jayden Daniels on what he’ll do during the mini-bye:

“I don’t even know. Watch football.”

McLaurin on going for it on 4th down – we’ve been doing it all season. We’re aggressive.

— JP Finlay (@JPFinlayNBCS) November 15, 2024

Terry McLaurin: “It’s easy to preach brotherhood when everything’s going good. … This is when what your program is built on needs to stand out.” pic.twitter.com/X42NxUCW58

— Sam Fortier (@Sam4TR) November 15, 2024

Terry McLaurin: “I think it’s easy to preach brotherhood when everything’s going good, when you’re winning and having a good time and things like that. … This is when it needs to stand out.”

— Nicki Jhabvala (@NickiJhabvala) November 15, 2024


Going for it on 4th down:

Austin Ekeler on going for it on 4th down – Touchdowns win games. That’s what we were trying to do. That’s what DQ preaches. pic.twitter.com/5vygAc8HUL
