Commanders look to secure second win, 49ers defend undefeated record
Last week, the 49ers managed an impressive comeback against the Seattle Seahawks, culminating in a 44-yard field goal to secure the final points of victory. This week, they’ll be protecting their perfect 5-0 record with hopes of taking control of the NFC West. Meanwhile, the Commanders came painfully close to their second win of the season, but ended up with a 27-27 overtime tie against the New York Giants. Despite that disappointment, a Commanders win tonight would land them just one win behind the current NFC East leader.
