Which Underdog Will Shock the NFL in This Weekend’s Conference Championship Showdowns?
Washington is in the NFC title game for the first time since the 1991 season with a stunning 45-31 win over the top-seeded Detroit Lions last Saturday. It’s been an unbelievable turnaround for the Commanders after they went 4-13 a season ago, and Daniels is the reason why they’re one of the final four teams standing.
With 3,568 passing yards and 891 rushing yards, Daniels became the first QB in NFL history with at least 3,500 passing yards and 800 rushing yards in his rookie season. In last weekend’s upset at Ford Field, he completed 22-of-31 passes for 299 yards with two touchdowns and no interceptions for a 122.9 passer rating. He also ran for 51 yards to become the first rookie QB to pass for at least 275 yards and rush for 50 or more yards in a playoff game.
