Just in case the adrenaline rush from the Commanders' insane last-second win is finally starting to wear off, I have one (1) single tweet that'll get you right back into it.

Let's quickly set the stage again: after letting the Bears march down to the goal line for the second time in two 4th quarter drives, this time for a lead-changing touchdown, the Commanders were down to their last play. Jayden Daniels took the snap and bought as much time as he could for Commanders recievers to get into the endzone for what looked like a pretty standard, last second heave.

Then, somehow, the Commanders one. The Bears decided to tip the ball even higher into the air for some reason, and after what felt like an eternity, the ball landed comfortably in Noah Browns hands. The stadium went crazy, Twitter went crazy, and I assume your living room went crazy. But none of them went more crazy than the team's radio call, because that's the one job of team-employed radio teams. It's their job to rise to the occasion when said occasion calls for it, and reader, the Commanders' team didn't disappoint. Without further ado, please enjoy Bram Weinstein and London Fletcher absolutely losing their cool in the final moments of the Commanders' win.

Commanders radio call of game-winning Hail Mary somehow makes it more exciting

That is, as they say, the good stuff. Whether it's Fletcher realizing that Brown was going to catch it a split second before it actually happened, or Weinstein just straight up losing every ounce of professional demeanor in the span of three seconds, everything about this rules. It's just 20 seconds of them hysterically laughing. And honestly, it fits the occasion perfectly. Eloquent monologues are for playoff baseball and The Masters. A play with so much pure, uncut chaos deserves a call with so much pure, uncut delirium.

What a way to go into a month where three of the next four games are against the NFC East. Everyone on the Commanders is going to do the cool guy, 24-hour rule routine, and fine, so be it. But this is the type of win that can change seasons. And if it ends up not being this dramatic moment in the history of Commanders lore, at least we got a psycho radio call out of it.
