Jayden Daniels - Commanders QB Thread

If Jayden Daniels has average or above health relative to his position, he will be an elite QB for the next 10 years. I am 100% confident in that.

And if he's healthy, we will be competitive.

It's time to kick that PTSD out the fuckin' door.

Note - I am talking to myself as much as anyone else here.

True, and it goes beyond the RG3 letdown . . .

*Everything* we thought might be a sign of life in the Snyder regime, every new coach, new GM, new QB, new “generational” draft pick, all of it went to crap.

I’m beginning to wrap my mind around #5’s potential, but the speed of the new brotherhood culture, killer FA signings, O-line cohesion, secondary improvement, hell, even finding a kicker — it’s hard to appreciate daylight when you’ve been living in a cave for 25 years.

Oh I get this. When Gibbs returned how could it fail? Shannahan? He has always won why not here? Scott McCloughan had a reputation as a top talent evaluator, he comes to Washington and turned into a personnel moron.

But this is different. We HOPED Dwayne Haskin or Jason Campbell would be franchise QBs. Now we KNOW we have that guy and a top QB is more valuable than even a head coach. Rodgers made a bad head coach a champion and constant contender. When Brady departed the Pats they became bottom feeders with the same head coach.

JD is still a rookie QB learning his way. He's going to have some bad games. Patrick Mahomes has one here and there. It's just part of playing the position.

The RG3 stuff is in the past. This kid is nothing like RG3.

JD is exactly what this franchise needed and he came at just the right time.

i saw that, CW IMO was more deserving (STAT wise) but i will take it

Daniels with his 4th rookie of the week honors, unrealWow. Best stat of all is he has us at 4-1. He has protected the ball pretty well overall especially for a rookie. Outstanding start to his pro career.

I don't think the comparison is with RG3, except only that he was a Washington forerunner. A better comparison is maybe with Jackson. JD is an equivalent runner, but I think a much better passer (well, to date he is). Be interesting to see how they compare head to head Sunday.

Jayden Daniels = Faster/Right-Handed Steve Young

I don't relate JD5 to RG3 much at all. Two totally different players and personalities and situations. Hope it continues and JD5 will be so far separated from that clown that we won't even have to think about it.

I will never understand the knock that he lacks arm strength. His quick release overcomes any of that concern as the ball still arrives at the same time or quicker and he throws a very catchable ball.
