Taylor Heinicke or Carson Wentz? Commanders still have to choose — Aldridge

— So, you’d like Ron Rivera’s job, would you? You either stay with Taylor Heinicke, who put the ball on the ground twice at the worst possible time Sunday — or go back to Carson Wentz, who hasn’t played in eight weeks and didn’t look all that good when he was on the field. But if we can get back on track, and play the way we’ve played, and do the things we’ve done, then we’ll stick with where we are.” Yes, I know I said two weeks ago that Washington couldn’t possibly replace Heinicke, not after he’d gone 5-1-1 as a starter in place of the injured Wentz. GO DEEPER Giants hold on to defeat Commanders on SNF Conversely, the Commanders’ offense gave up seven points, on a second-quarter strip-sack-fumble caused by the seemingly unblockable Giants rookie defensive end and first-rounder Kayvon Thibodeaux, who again blindsided Heinicke on the goal line, as he did two weeks ago in the 20-20 tie with the Giants. Nor is it Heinicke’s fault that line judge Carl Johnson called Terry McLaurin for being in illegal formation — basically, not even with the center along the line of scrimmage — before Brian Robinson’s 1-yard touchdown run with 1:08 left, which would have made the score 20-18, with Washington in position to attempt a two-point conversation to tie the game.
