Which Super Bowl LIX Matchup Will Surprise Neutral Fans the Most?
CHANCES OF REACHING THE SUPER BOWL
Matchup-wise, this combination of teams would be intriguing because of how the Commanders have dealt with pressure. Teams have calculated all season that the best way to bother Daniels is by sending the house. Washington has faced a blitz on 37.5% of its snaps, fourth-highest rate in the league, but only allowed a roughly average pressure rate of 41.9%.
The offensive line has done a solid job preventing pass rushers from getting into Daniels’ face with any frequency. Could Washington continue to hold up against a Chiefs defense that blitzes often (37% of the time) and generates consistent pressure (43.7%)? The Chiefs just sacked C.J. Stroud eight times, and a Spagnuolo defense that reaches the Super Bowl will presumably not have stopped generating pressure against Allen.
