Craig continues his '1st and 10' series with seven more key takeaways from the Commanders' thrilling walk-off win over the Bears. He starts by dissecting the Commanders' run game, which was strong on the opening drive but seemed to vanish as the game progressed. Craig also tips his hat to the Bears' punter for an impressive performance that kept Washington battling poor field position. Finally, he celebrates Terry McLaurin’s resilience, praising the receiver for his remarkable bounce-back after a shaky start to the season.

Craig opens the show with an in-depth look at his three biggest takeaways from the Commanders' stunning Hail Mary walk-off victory against the Chicago Bears. Leading off, he highlights the thrilling Hail Mary play, calling it one of the most memorable finishes in Washington franchise regular season history. Craig dives into the role Bears DB Tyriq Stevenson played in the play, noting his taunting gesture toward Washington fans mid-play and how, ironically, he tipped the ball right into Noah Brown's hands for the game-winning score. Craig breaks down what this electrifying win means for the Commanders as they build momentum through the season.
