BALTIMORE -- Three weeks ago, Washington Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels knew he would get blasted. Facing a cover-zero blitz, the rookie first-round pick stood in the pocket and threw a 27-yard strike to Terry McLaurin in the end zone just as he was hit. That has been the most improbable touchdown pass of the season, with Next Gen Stats giving it a completion probability of 10.3%.
Then, last Sunday, Baltimore Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson fumbled a snap in the red zone and was on his knees frantically trying to scoop up the loose ball.
