I saw a lot of positives in the way Jayden Daniels played. He played like more of a pocket QB, avoiding pressure by navigating the pocket and avoiding pressure like a ninja while keeping his eyes downfield.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Daniels showed pocket QB poise in week 1 but struggled early; improved in 4th quarter.

The source saw significant positives in Daniels' week 1 performance, noting he played like a pocket QB, avoiding pressure through pocket navigation and keeping eyes downfield rather than immediately breaking the pocket; this approach should help keep him healthier. However, his first-half stats were concerning (37.5% completion, 43 passing yards, 0 TDs, 45.8 passer rating, 50% pressure rate), though he improved significantly in the second half and 4th quarter. The source attributes early struggles to playcalling and Eagles defense quality rather than QB deficiency.
