Sam Howell threw for two touchdowns and the Washington Commanders<\/a> rallied from an 18-point deficit to beat the Denver Broncos 35-33 on Sunday, holding on after Russell Wilson connected with Brandon Johnson on a 50-yard Hail Mary but failed to complete the tying 2-point try.<\/p>\n

Washington cornerback Benjamin St-Juste broke up Wilson’s pass<\/a> to Courtland Sutton on the 2-point conversion attempt. St-Juste appeared to get away with pass interference, but no flag was thrown and the Commanders celebrated the franchise’s first 2-0 start since 2011 while Sutton and his teammates argued vehemently for a foul.<\/p>\n

Howell threw for 299 yards on 27-of-39 passing in his first road start and led Washington to the second-biggest comeback in franchise history. Washington overcame a 21-point deficit to beat Detroit on Nov. 4, 1990.<\/p>\n

The Commanders trailed 21-3 in the second quarter. Brian Robinson Jr. ran for two scores during a 32-6 scoring outburst before the Broncos made it interesting at the very end.<\/p>\n

With 2 seconds left and the Broncos trailing 35-27, Wilson heaved a pass toward the end zone that was deflected by a scrum of players before Johnson snared it for the score.<\/p>\n

The Broncos (0-2) have lost back-to-back home games for the first time, not the kind of history coach Sean Payton was hoping to make in his return to the sideline after a year in the broadcast studio following a highly successful 15-year stint in New Orleans<\/a>, especially after he criticized predecessor Nathaniel Hackett for doing one of the worst coaching jobs in NFL history last year.<\/p>\n

SEAHAWKS’ GENO SMITH LEADS GAME-WINNING DRIVE IN OVERTIME TO BEAT LIONS<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

The Broncos jumped out to their big lead by scoring touchdowns on their first three possessions for the first time since Nov. 14, 2010, against Kansas City, a game they went on to win 49-29.<\/p>\n

Payton got the ball into his young speedsters’ hands early on, and it paid off with undrafted rookie Jaleel McLaughlin scoring on a 5-yard pitch, rookie receiver Marvin Mims Jr. hauling in a 60-yard touchdown pass and second-year wideout Johnson hauling in a 16-yard score.<\/p>\n

None of the three touched the ball again until Mims got a handoff midway through the third quarter with the score tied at 21.<\/p>\n

Mims had two caches for 113 yards on two targets but wasn’t targeted again and spent much of the rest of the game on the sideline.<\/p>\n

Robinson’s 2-yard TD run with 13:25 left gave Washington its first lead at 28-24 and his second score, from 15 yards out, made it 35-24 with 7:11 remaining.<\/p>\n

The game turned when Howell threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to Logan Thomas on fourth-and-goal and safety Kareem Jackson was ejected for launching himself at the tight end, who suffered a concussion on the play and didn’t return. Jackson also drew a 15-yard flag in the opener for a hit he put on Raiders receiver Jakobi Meyers.<\/p>\n

With the flag moving the conversion try to the 1, Washington went for 2 and pulled within 21-11 when Robinson got the ball past the plane. Joey Slye’s 46-yard field goal as the first half expired made it 21-14.<\/p>\n

The Commanders tied it on Terry McLaurin’s 30-yard TD grab on their first drive after halftime.<\/p>\n

INJURIES<\/p>\n

Commanders: Thomas didn’t return after suffering a concussion on his TD. … Broncos: S Delarrin Turner-Yell, who replaced Jackson after he was ejected, sustained an undisclosed injury early in the fourth quarter and went to the locker room. He was replaced by DB Essang Bassey.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
