Antonio Gibson punt return:
That 37-yard return by Antonio Gibson is his longest this season.

3 and out:
Commanders start the day with a three-and-out. Dotson dropped a pass on third and 2
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 5, 2023
Dotson’s gotta catch that, but Howell’s gotta give him a better throw. Especially given the time/space he had.

Rhamondre Stevenson vs Jamin Davis:
Stevenson toasted Jamin Davis on that third down completion

Mac Jones 4th down miss:
Mac misses wide open 4th down conversion. Woof. Good news for Commanders

Good to see Dyami Brown getting involved early. #HTTC

Brian Robinson first down:
BRob plows forward on third and one. Commanders keep the chains moving

3rd down fail:
This 3rd-and-1 play never had a chance because the snap was high, but it looks like the Patriots were all over it regardless. #HTTC pic.twitter.com/C89dqccgUr

Joey Slye FG:
Joey Slye gets the Commanders on the board first with a 37-yard attempt. Ends a nine-play, 42-yard drive

James Smith-Williams pressure:
Another solid stop from the defense. Also a nice pressure from James Smith-Williams on first down
— Zach Selby (@ZachSelbyWC) November 5, 2023
Emmanuel Forbes:
Great job by Emmanuel Forbes on 3rd down in coverage.
That was his best targeted rep in a while. It came against a pedestrian WR running a lazy route, but you’ll take it. #Commanders

Sam Howell —-> Byron Pringle:
Great job by Emmanuel Forbes on 3rd down in coverage.

Terry McLaurin no call:
McLaurin can’t haul in the deep pass.
Arguably could throw the flag for DPI here – defender clearly not going for the ball but just looking to interfere with McLaurin in the process of the catch.#HTTC pic.twitter.com/O7yIc4FTLt

That was a great play design on that WR screen for Antonio Gibson

TOUCHDOWN
Brian Robinson Jr busts out and finds the endzone, with a big assist from a nice Terry McLaurin block.
Commanders lead 10-0!#HTTC | @BrianR_4 pic.twitter.com/hfJcHe6dM6

John Bates and Terry McLaurin do a good job of clearing out that edge and getting BRob into the endzone … the right side of the line got the job done but it wasnt pretty setting the edge – Wylie probably a little lucky not to be called for a hold there

This was really good analytical work from Jonathan Vilma. Explains why Jamin Davis was the culprit on the long TD run allowed. Then cameras have JDR giving him an ear full. pic.twitter.com/UvDeSpQYON

Sam Howell —-> Jahan Dotson:
Very nice play here from Howell.
Stayed calm in the pocket and worked his progressions to find Jahan Dotson for a good chunk of yards.#HTTC pic.twitter.com/Ypy1lmFj5o

Sam Howell sack:
This is an example of a sack that people will blame on the line that probably isn’t. This free blitzed is unaccounted for, forces Howell to run way backwards. Leno’s guy gets him but Leno isn’t blocking to that depth. pic.twitter.com/p8lNdUNVVV
— Grant Paulsen (@granthpaulsen) November 5, 2023
A misidentified blitz … Logan Thomas was staying in to help chip and missed the lb blitzing behind him … of course then Sam goes and runs for 20 for a first, that’s the good with the bad https://t.co/EZwlTfgqup

Horrible throw, which is a shame because it had been an excellent drive from Howell up until this point. pic.twitter.com/hTIoaF2z6K
