Howell throws 3 TD passes, Commanders pick off three Ridder passes in 24-16 win over Falcons
ATLANTA — Jamin Davis sensed where the final pass was going before it left the quarterback’s hand. Davis snagged the last of three second-half interceptions against Atlanta’s Desmond Ridder, sealing Washington’s 24-16 victory over the Falcons on Sunday. Kendall Fuller grabbed the first interception against Ridder, returning it deep into Atlanta territory to set up Howell’s screen pass to running back Brian Robinson for a 24-yard touchdown that pushed Washington to a 24-10 lead. “I was just trying to anticipate what I knew was coming.” Howell worked well with his backs, also connecting with Antonio Gibson on a 1-yard score that was set up by Crowder’s long return. “If we get it, it’s a six-point game.” The Falcons also had trouble getting the play calls from Smith to Ridder in a timely manner.
