Sunday was a strange day for the Washington Football Team. Quarterback Taylor Heinicke got hurt and couldn't finish the game. The Burgundy and Gold, after getting blown out for most of the afternoon, suddenly found themselves in a one=score contest with less than five minutes left. And despite failing to gain ground on the Cowboys in the NFC East, 6-7 Washington maintained its hold on a playoff spot.

And despite failing to gain ground on the Cowboys in the NFC East, 6-7 Washington maintained its hold on a playoff spot.
Quarterback Taylor Heinicke, wide receiver and return specialist DeAndre Carter and wide receiver Terry McLaurin propelled Washington to a 27-21 victory over the Carolina Panthers at Bank of America Stadium. Here’s how they played Sunday afternoon.
SCOREBOARD Monday, Oct. 25 Saints at Seahawks, 8:15 p.m. EDT. New Orleans (3-2) returns from its bye coming off a victory over Washington two weeks ago.

The Seahawks (2-4) will have Geno Smith under center again in Wilson's place. STARS Passing
