The Washington Commanders are preparing to host the Atlanta Falcons in a big game on Sunday at Northwest Stadium. All eyes have been on what Jayden Daniels has been able to accomplish on the field, but it's his leadership off of it that's turning heads.

The Washington Commanders have been special this season. Their 10-5 record through 15 games is their best start in as many games since 1991. That season, they happened to capture a Super Bowl victory.

Jayden Daniels was not worried when he and the Washington Commanders trailed the Philadelphia Eagles by 14 points after just seven minutes, and the rookie quarterback was similarly undaunted staring down a 13-point deficit going into the fourth quarter,

The Eagles (12-3) couldn’t clinch the NFC East on Sunday after a 36-33 loss to the Washington Commanders (10-5), putting an end to their 10-game win streak and keeping the division title out of reach for another week.

The key for the Atlanta Falcons isn't Penix Jr.'s performance. It's establishing the running game with Bijan Robinson and then shifting the rhythm to the zone schemes for Tyler Allgier to get going downhill. Washington has been weak against the run all year, the Achilles heel of their defense.
