Coming into the Week 10 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Washington Commanders rookie QB Jayden Daniels was gearing up for a stout, physical defense.
In the Steelers’ 28-27 win over the Commanders Sunday, that stout, physical defense gave Washington some trouble, especially in the second half. Daniels and the Commanders racked up just 242 yards of total offense, and though they scored 27 points, which was near their 29.2 points per game, Washington was very limited.
For Daniels, the Steelers didn’t surprise them with anything defensively. They were just a good team that made plays when it mattered most.
