Cousins connected with Dalvin Cook on a 12-yard TD pa s, which was one of his best throws of the game and compensated for some earlier inaccuracies. He finished 22 of 40 for 265 yards.After an unnece sary roughne s penalty on the initial field goal attempt allowed Kahale Warring Jersey Minnesota to run more time off the clock, Joseph connected from 28 yards out with 12 seconds left to keep the streak going.Justin Jefferson caught Cousins’ first TD pa s in the first quarter and came down with a 47-yard completion in the fourth.

BIZARRE PLAYAfter Antonio Gibson gave Washington strong field position to start the second half with a 45-yard kickoff return, Heinicke provided one of the highlights of the game with one of the weirdest plays of the NFL season.Heinicke made the risky decision to heave the ball into the air from midfield like a Hail Mary, and it looked like a certain interception until Minnesota safety Camryn Bynum collided with back judge Steve Patrick, who was trying to get out of the way. Samuel got in front of Smith and cornerback Patrick Peterson and made the catch at the goal line.
