"It was an embarrassing evening at the office for the Washington Commanders. The offense turned the football over too much, and the defense couldn't stop the run. That's a dangerous combination - one the Chicago Bears exploited to secure a dramatic walk-off success on Monday Night Football. The primary influencer of punishment throughout the game was D'Andre Swift. Although the running back had been struggling to find form this season, he came to life at Northwest Stadium as Washington plunged to 3-3."
"There was nothing much the Commanders could do to prevent him from making plays, which resulted in 175 yards from scrimmage and a touchdown. This was deeply disappointing, especially considering general manager Adam Peters invested heavily in the defensive trenches this offseason. And the biggest play of the day from Swift came from several Commanders' errors, which further raised frustrations. D'Andre Swift took not-so-subtle swipe at Commanders safety Quan Martin His 55-yard catch and run saw Quan Martin blow a chance to stop him."
