Welcome to the Week 16 grades!
There were a lot of impressive performances in Week 16, but none of those were more impressive than the one that came from Jayden Daniels. In an NFC East showdown against Philadelphia, the Commanders rookie quarterback went off with a historical performance. Daniels threw for 258 yards and five touchdowns while also tacking on 81 rushing yards, which made him just the second quarterback in NFL history to throw for at least 250 yards and five touchdowns with at least 75 rushing yards in a single game.
Daniels was especially impressive in the fourth quarter, throwing for 139 yards and three touchdowns in the 36-33 win. Daniels was so good that Washington was able to overcome five turnovers. With their win, the Commanders became the first team since 2010 to win a game despite giving up at least 30 points and turning the ball over at least five times.
