Patriots 10 - 20 Commanders summary, stats, scores and highlights | NFL preseason Week 3

McSorley's numbers may not be the greatest, but he had a much more efficient game than Driskel. He went 12/21 for 125 yards and this TD while leading the comeback to send the Commanders into Week 1 on a winning note. 

Coaches and GMs will now focus on trimming down their rosters to 53 men before Tuesday's deadline, Once that is taken care of the Commanders will set their sights on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 1 while the Patriots get ready for the Bengals. Jerod Mayo will have named a QB1 by that time, the question is will it be Jacoby Brissett or Drake Maye?

With Jayden Daniels and Marcus Mariotta sitting the preseason finale out, it was Jeff Driskel that got the start. He went 12/18 for 73 yards but he never had Washington in scoring position. That wasn't the case with Trace McSorley who was playing golf just a a couple weeks ago, but Washington signed him and as their QB4. He played great, leading back to back TD drives. The first one was finishes off by Kevin Wiley who got a play by play call from veteran linebacker Bobby Wagner. 

It may have been the Drake Maye show on the first few played of the TD drive but Kevin Harris did the dirty work on the 18 yard TD catch and run. He broke a tackle and raced to the end zone for the game's opening score. 

Maye went 13/20 for 126 yards and threw this TD while running for another 17 yards on three rushes. He certainly played well enough to be named the starter, but if the Patriots will want to throw their rookie into the fire this early is another question. 

Brissett took a shot on the first series which might have forced him out of the game early, but he was only set to play one or two drives. Maye continued to impress on his first drive with a two identical touch passes, this one coming on another third down conversion. 

The Washington Commanders closed out their preseason slate with a comeback win on a night in which none of their starters played a single snap. Trace McSorley led the comeback in the second half as the Commanders scored the final 20 points of the game. 

The game might have been won by Washington, but the headline coming out of this game is Drake Maye. It's still not clear who is going to be starting at QB in Week 1 for the Pats, but Maye had a great outing after Jacoby Brissett played the first series. Maye fumbled the first snap of his night, but made up for it with this 17 yard 3rd down conversion.

NFL

When are NFL cut days during the preseason? When do rosters have to be trimmed to 53

Cut day coming up

It’s the day that dreams either come true or are shattered. There are a lot of guys on the field tonight that will be playing the the pressure and stress of cut day shadowing them for all four quarters. In just a few days coaches of all 32 teams will have to trim their rosters to 53 men, which means there is going to be a lot of players earn the right to be on the roster, while others have their dream shattered. This is the last chance to impress coaches before they have to have their official roster completed on Tuesday, August 27th. 

Last season: Commanders

Washington surprised a lot of people last year when they won their first two games of the season as Sam Howell was making his case to be the permanent QB in the nation’s capital. The Commanders would then lose three in a row and while the defense gave up 34+ points in each of those games. Things would only get worse as Washington won just two more games for the whole season and it would end up costing head coach Ron Rivera his job. They ended the year on an eight game winning streak, but on the bright side, it earned them the No. 2 pick in the draft. 

Last season: Patriots

Last year brought the end of an era to Foxborough as Bill Belichick’s reign finished on a sour note. After more than two decades and six Super Bowls titles the Patriots parted ways with the legendary coach. They won just two of their first 12 games, and cut ties with their former first round QB Mac Jones who was bench for the final third of the season. The dreadful season opened up the door to new beginnings and now the Pats come into this year with a rookie head coach and potentially a rookie QB in Week 1. 

Star watch: Commanders

We aren’t going to see Jayden Daniels tonight unfortunately. The good news for him and for Commanders fans is he will be playing in the season opener in two weeks time. Of all the rookie QBs that have made a splash in preseason, Daniels has been the most consistent, or at least as consistent as you can be playing a handful of snaps in two games. He went 2/3 with one long pass for 42 yards, and scored an opening drive TD with a three yard run to begin his NFL career. In the next game he had drives of 9 and 10 plays and got his team into field goal range while going 10/12 for 78 yards. None of the starters will play tonight for the Commanders, so that means tonight is going to be all about the guys on the cut line. This could be a make or break night for players from both sides. 

Star watch: Patriots

Tonight is all about the Patriots No. 3 overall draft pick Drake Maye. He’s got a chance to take the starting job today, although offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt said Jacoby Brissett is currently the QB1. If there is any uncertainty at all, both QBs should play tonight but we should get a heavy dose of Maye in the preseason finale. Maye was 2/3 for 19 yards in the Pats first game, and 6/11 for 47 yards last game. Those numbers don’t quite scream starting QB, but it’s preseason and he hasn’t had that continuity that a starting QB gets during the regular season. There is no need to tell you that New England is desperate for some stability at the QB position. Tom Brady showed this fan base how to be ultra demanding and now the incumbents are trying to appease the title hungry supporters. 

Commanders last game

The Commanders took on the Dolphins last week in Miami and could only muster two field goals against the Fins D. Jayden Daniels started the game under center and played the first two drives of the day, leading his team into field goal range on both drives. Rilley Patterson hit one of those two field goals but the offense didn’t do much more after Daniels went to the bench. The Dolphins would hold off the Commanders for the rest of the game, but coach Dan Quinn saw enough of Daniels to name him the starter after the game. 

Last game: Patriots

Last week the Pats hosted the Eagles in Foxborough and lost the game in the last few minutes of the fourth quarter. That was the bad news. The good news was Drake Maye had his best showing, leading two scoring drives in the first half. He went just 6/11 for 47 yards in the air, but had a rushing TD that put the Pats up 10-0. Maye would play into the third quarter, but not do a whole lot with the offense in his two second half drives. Joe Milton came in and led a field goal drive to stretch the lead to 13-6, but the Eagles came back and took the lead with a fourth quarter field goal and a TD with under 5:00 to go in the game. Bailey Zappe tried to lead one final charge down field but he fumbled a snap and the Eagles recovered to end the game. 

We are live from Washington

Hello everyone and welcome to the nation’s capital where football fans around the world celebrate this game, because they know these will be the final snaps of football we see until Week 1 kicks off in two Thursday’s time. The Washington Commanders come into this game knowing who their quarterback will be for the season opener, but the Patriots come into tonight with the starting job still undecided.  Jacoby Brissett has started each of the first three games for the Pats, but Drake Maye has made improvement’s in each and every game he has played. Tonight may or may not determine the Pats starter in Week 1, but it wouldn’t hurt to put on a show tonight.
