Bleeding Green Nation on Jayden Daniels
From the article
Jayden Daniels and the Commanders bungled a seemingly sure win and settled for a tie against the Giants... Trailing by four points on Thursday night with eight minutes to play, Daniels threw his first two interceptions of the season on back-to-back drives... Daniels found Stefon Diggs over the middle and the veteran turned it into a 32-yard, game-winning touchdown... Daniels completed 23 of his 33 pass attempts for 249 yards, three touchdowns and two picks after his first 207 passes of the season went without a single INT.
STACKED’s take
Daniels delivers late-game heroics in must-win; 3 TDs, 2 INTs in 24-21 win vs. Giants
Daniels delivered late-game heroics in a must-win Thursday night game against the Giants, completing 23 of 33 pass attempts for 249 yards, three touchdowns, and two interceptions—his first INTs after his first 207 passes of the season went without a pick. After throwing back-to-back interceptions with eight minutes remaining while trailing by four, Daniels led a game-winning drive capped by a 32-yard touchdown pass to Stefon Diggs, securing a 24-21 victory. The win marked the Commanders' fourth one-score victory in their last 13 games (4-8-1 record in one-score games since his rookie year), restoring a sense of late-game magic reminiscent of his otherworldly rookie season.
