What happened: On The Dan Le Batard Show, Dan Le Batard said Chris Myers topped Al Michaels' 1980 Olympic hockey call with his Washington-New York Giants finish. Myers said he was stunned as Jayden Daniels scrambled without a timeout and time expired before a spike, leaving the game tied.

Why it matters: Myers said the sequence stood apart because Washington had enough time to organize a final play. Peter King called it the worst clock management he had seen in 43 years covering the sport, putting late-game coaching decisions under scrutiny.

By the numbers: Myers compared the scramble to Cam Little's 68-yard field goal before halftime in the Jacksonville-Las Vegas game.

What to watch: Myers said game officials were still discussing the clock sequence at the airport afterward. Washington's late-game operation stays under watch in its next close finish.
