One NFL team executive doesn't think the Washington Commanders should be overlooked in the race to claim the NFC crown.
"Jayden Daniels scored five touchdowns against Philly and won with five (Washington) turnovers," the exec said to The Athletic's Mike Sando. "Daniels has been great in big moments, clutch spots. If it's a one-score game and he has the ball last, that is a dangerous team."
Of the three executives he interviewed, each one listed Washington last when ranking the NFC playoff teams. Still, the Commanders are riding a four-game winning streak, and two of those victories saw them dig deep against fellow playoff contenders.
