Instant analysis | Austin Seibert sets franchise record with 7 FGs in 21-18 win over Giants

The Giants, however, didn’t have the same issues with finding the end zone. They hit paydirt seven plays after an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty moved their starting spot from the 35-yard line to the 50. Jones found Nabers for a 28-yard pass on a third-and-12, and Devin Singletary broke two takes en route to a seven-yard touchdown two plays later.

Jamie Gillan, who subbed in for an injured Graham Gano, missed the ensuing extra point, which allowed Washington and Seibert to tie and take the lead on scoring drives that accounted for 117 yards. The offense converted four of their five third-down attempts in that span, which helped them get to the red zone, but both drives fizzled out after a sack and a run up the middle for no gain by Ekeler. Seibert was trotted out on attempts of 45 and 26 yards to give Washington a 9-6 advantage.

That lead lasted for about two minutes, though, as the Giants put together a 10-play, 69-yard drive that ended with Nabers getting open in the end zone for a four-yard score and putting them back up, 12-9, at halftime.

It looked like the Giants were about to build on their lead to start the second half, as they zoomed from their 26 to the Commanders’ 35 on four plays. Benjamin St-Juste and Jeremy Chinn flipped that momentum, though, with the former popping the ball loose from Singletary’s grasp and the latter to fall on it. That led to Washington’s offense getting down to the Giants’ 9-yard line, only to settle for another field goal from Seibert, this time from 27-yards out.
