The Washington Commanders lead the Cincinnati Bengals 21-13 at halftime of their Week 3 Monday Night Football game.

The Bengals went on offense first and it didn’t take long for quarterback Joe Burrow to find star receiver Ja’Marr Chase for a 41-yard touchdown, taking an early 7-0 lead.

The Commanders responded when quarterback Jayden Daniels quickly moved Washington into Cincinnati territory, but there he was faced with a fourth-and-2 at the Bengals’ 32-yard line.

Instead of settling for a field goal, Quinn went for it and Daniels found rookie wide receiver Luke McCaffrey for a 30-yard gain to set up the Commanders with a first-and-goal at the 2-yard line. Running back Brian Robinson Jr. punched it in a few plays later to tie the game.

Washington’s defense finally gets a stop and kicker Evan McPherson misses a field goal. Daniels and the Commanders went to work again and running back Austin Ekeler scored from 24 yards out to give Washington a 14-7 lead.

Washington’s defense held Cincinnati from attempting another field goal, but this time McPherson connected to cut the lead to 14-10.

The Commanders remained aggressive as Daniels found Terry McLaurin on a 55-yard completion to set up another first-and-goal. Daniels took it to the endzone on the next play, and it was 21-10 Washington.
