All of a sudden, WFT is tied for first place in the NFC East
WFT just happened?
Of all teams in the NFL, it was the Washington Football Team who finally handed the Pittsburgh Steelers their first loss.
Washington quarterback Alex Smith, bloody sock and all, did enough to keep it close, and with a late Ben Roethlisberger interception, WFT managed to upset Pittsburgh for the first time since 1991.
So WFT earns its third straight wins and improves to 5-7, tied for first place in the NFC East.
It was Washington’s first win at Heinz field in franchise history, and unless you’re a Steelers fan, an incredibly heartwarming story considering everything Smith and coach Ron Rivera have been through.
Still, NFL fans couldn’t believe the plot twist, and they reacted accordingly on Twitter:
You love to see it.
