After three slow quarters, the NFC East rivalry came to life.
The Dallas Cowboys scored a 99-yard touchdown and the Washington Commanders scored an 86-yard touchdown in the final three minutes of what became an out-of-control fourth quarter.
Ultimately, the Cowboys snapped a five-game losing streak with the 34-26 win, improving to 4-7 as the Commanders fell to 7-5 with their third consecutive loss.
But before any of those outcomes were assured, there was a wild fourth quarter.
Lets break it down.
Just as Washington pulled to within three points with a little over three minutes left, kick returner KaVontae Turpin struck back. The ensuing kickoff bounced through Turpins legs, a fitting last gaffe for a group that had already endured a field goal blocked, a field goal missed and a punt blocked.
But Turpin nonetheless grabbed the loose ball at the 1-yard line and powered a spin move to confuse the Commanders leverage.
His 99-yard touchdown seemed to seal the Cowboys win.
Until Daniels found Terry McLaurin for an 86-yard catch-and-run on the first play of their final-30-seconds drive.
Trailing by one, Washington opted to go for the more surefire extra-point attempt than the two-point attempt.
Austin Seiberts kick like many before it on what play-by-play announcer Joe Davis fittingly called the worst special teams day in history shanked wide left.
Washington attempted an onside kick for a last-ditch effort, the Cowboys instead recovering it and scoring a touchdown.
Daniels Hail Mary heave in the final four seconds was intercepted.
Momentum began to spike midway through the fourth quarter when the Cowboys defense tapped into the takeaway skills now-Commanders coach Dan Quinn had taught them during Quinns prior three years as their defensive coordinator. Safety Donovan Wilson punched a ball free from Commanders receiver John Bates with 8:11 to play in the game, linebacker Eric Kendricks recovering it to give Dallas a short field.
Quarterback Cooper Rush noticed a coverage bust in the red zone and responded with a 22-yard touchdown pass to tight end Luke Schoonmaker, the first score of the rookies career.
Then Daniels completed 7-of-7 passes, including a touchdown strike to tight end Zach Ertz and a 2-point conversion keeper of his own.
That set up the wild finish.
