The Washington Commanders will go as far as Jayden Daniels' magic will take them this Playoffs.
The Washington Commanders have gone on a Cinderella run all the way to the NFC Championship Game behind a nobody believes in us campaign beating the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and the Detroit Lions. The Commanders won just four games last season and now the Division Rival Philadelphia Eagles are the only thing standing between the Commanders and the Super Bowl.
To get to this point, Jayden Daniels passed for 268 yards and a pair of Touchdowns to beat Tampa Bay while he passed for 299 yards and 2 touchdowns to beat Detroit.
The Philadelphia Eagles are a familiar opponent for Jayden Daniels as the Commanders have already faced the Eagles twice this season splitting the two games. In the loss, Jayden Daniels passed for 191 yards with a touchdown and an interception. In the win, Jayden Daniels passed for 258 yards with 5 touchdowns and a pair of interceptions.
This playoffs, Jayden Daniels has played smart football, taking care of the football which is so important in the Playoff. The Challenge will be facing off against an Eagles defensive line that can get after the passer starting with Jalen Carter in the middle. The Eagles defense will look to take away Terry McLaurin making Dyami Brown, Jamison Crowder, Olamide Zaccheaus beat them.
If the Washington Commanders are going to move on to the Super Bowl they're going to need to stop the run and they'll need Jayden Daniels to take care of the football while keeping the Eagles offense off the field. With a banged up offensive line, the Commanders will likely run a ton of quick passing game rather than leaving Daniels out to dry.
