The Washington Commanders stunned the Philadelphia Eagles, ending their winning streak. Rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels impressed with his performance, showcasing his potential as an NFL star.
For starters, the Washington Commanders delivered the biggest upset of the week, ending the Philadelphia Eagles ’ 10-game winning streak with a 36–33 comeback victory. The Commanders ’ first win against a team with a winning record—possibly vs. the best team in the league—said plenty about what coach Dan Quinn is building in Washington, and it said a lot more about how good Jayden Daniels can be in his NFL career.
As for another unexpected development, the Cincinnati Bengals’ playoff hopes are alive and well, but they still need plenty of help. The AFC contenders might be hoping Joe Burrow and Ja’Marr Chase don’t get the extra help in the final two weeks of the regular season. The Los Angeles Rams also received surprising results when the rest of the NFC West teams lost after they defeated the New York Jets. They’re now on the verge of wrapping up the division title in Week 17. Perhaps the final box to check off when determining whether a promising rookie quarterback is the real deal is how they do against opponents the second time around. Occasionally, young signal-callers benefit from being a mystery to opposing defenses because of the lack of NFL tape to go off when building a game plan. This is especially true for mobile quarterbacks—just look at what Robert Griffin III, Cam Newton and Lamar Jackson did as rookies, and now Daniels is doing the same. But Daniels is ahead of most rookie quarterbacks when it comes to accuracy and making plays from the pocket. He’s a pocket assassin first and a mobile quarterback second, which could be tough for defensive coordinators to prepare for even in second meetings. C.J. Stroud was pretty polished as a passer during his rookie season in 2023, but he doesn’t offer the mobility that Daniels possesses
