Here’s something I’m not sure I’ve ever said before: the Washington Commanders deserve your respect.
They’re a very legitimate team.
The Commanders rank seventh in DVOA, one spot ahead of the Eagles.
The Commanders rank third in point differential, one spot (and one point) ahead of the Eagles.
Jayden Daniels is the real deal. He’s going to test a Vic Fangio defense that’s been excellent since Philly’s Week 5 bye. Daniels will not beat himself with rookie mistakes; the Eagles must force the issue.
There’s reason to believe they can do just that.
