The Washington Commanders found an absolutely wild way to lose to the lowly Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.

In case you missed it, the final minute was one of the craziest closing stretches of the NFL season. Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels hit Terry McLaurin on an 86-yard touchdown pass that made it a one-point game.

But that didn't happen, as he pushed it wide left, much to the dismay of the home crowd at Northwest Stadium.

Check this out:

Greg Olsen was on the call for FOX and he had a perfect line after the miss, saying: "I'm not even sure what we just watched."

Here are his calls on the TD and then the missed extra-point:

Things then got even more absurd as the Cowboys then returned an onside kick for a TD:

Olsen remains one of the best in the business.

Whew, what a finish.
