The roar of the crowd, the sea of Burgundy and gold, the arch of football in the air in the direction of the end zone – that is the moment that Washington commanders will never forget.
The “Goil Mary” wonder against the Chicago Bears in week 8 of the 2024 season was the most iconic. And now that commanding moment will be etched in the NFL history forever, with the 2024 following Stats Moment of the Year being used on the 14th annual NFL sub -divorcity.
Washington Quarterback Jayden Daniels – the man behind the play – went ahead and center at the NFL Honors Ceremony and accepted the prize.

His speech was exactly what Daniels showed all season, modest and balanced. “That was a crazy game,” Daniels said, accepting the prize. “I really don’t know what to say, but as I said nothing but God,” said Daniels.
That game was pure chaos in the best way. A click in the last seconds of the game. A clambering to stay alive. And then, a desperate bite to the end zone when time had finished. The ball seemed to hang in the air forever, with each fan in their breath. When it finally landed in the hands of Noah Brown – the stadium exploded.
The next gene stats – moment of the year is not just a prize – proof of how wild that game really was. The advanced statistics of the NFL emphasized how unlikely it all seemed: the distance of the Worp and the chance that the commanders will win the game. Statistically, it should not have fallen that way. But somehow it did that.
The Greetings Maria Will live on as a symbol of resilience – a memory that it is never over in football, just like life, until it is until it is over. For Jayden Daniels, the commanders and the fans it is a decisive moment. An insignia of faith, trust and refuses to give up, regardless of how long the opportunities. And now it is a time that will be etched in their career forever.
