The Washington Commanders defeated the Indianapolis Colts 17-16 on Sunday to improve to 4-4.
It was another wild game for the Commanders. After a promising touchdown drive in the second quarter, Washington’s offense went silent for the remainder of the first half and all of the third quarter.
When the Colts intercepted Washington quarterback Taylor Heinicke early in the fourth quarter, it felt like the Commanders’ winning streak would end at two games.
However, Heinicke and wide receiver Terry McLaurin brought Washington all the way back, scoring the game-winning touchdown with 22 seconds remaining in the game.
As always, Twitter was wild during and after Sunday’s Washington game. We’ve compiled some of the best reactions from Sunday’s win.

Taylor Heinicke is such a Legend.
— Big Cat (@BarstoolBigCat) October 30, 2022
Look, Heinicke is not the long term answer. But I saw in front of my TV every Sunday for multiple seasons looking at QB's for this team that would never attempt that pass to Terry McClaurin.

Taylor Heinicke will never have to work a real job after all is said and done for his playing career.
He will never pay for a haircut in town. He'll play free golf here for the rest of his life. He'll prob have his own restaurant at some point.
Legend status cemented.

Terry McLaurin
Terry McLaurin basically won back-to-back games with clutch catches on Jaire Alexander and Stephon Gilmore absolute king shit
— Ian Hartitz (@Ihartitz) October 30, 2022
McLaurin is unbelievable. Transcending dog status. Might be wolf.
— chris long (@JOEL9ONE) October 30, 2022
Terry McLaurin has been one of the best 50/50 ball WRs since stepping in the league. Gets it done there in the game’s biggest moment
— Darius Butler (@DariusJButler) October 30, 2022
Terry McLaurin is one of the coolest players in the league. Just eminently fun to watch.
— Mina Kimes (@minakimes) October 30, 2022
Terry McLaurin just Moss'd Stephon Gilmore.
Oh my.
