Jayden Daniels Has More Scoring Drives (23) Than Incomplete Passes (19) Through His First 4 NFL Games

 

Not enough good things can be said about the Commies offense. The combo of Jayden Daniels and Kliff Kingsbury is the best 1-2 QB/OC duo in the league and I'm not sure it's close. I know it's easy to throw that phrase around but this time it's actually true:

 

 

What Kliff has done this season through just 4 games is extraordinary. He eased Jayden into the NFL game with short passes and getting the ball out quick, then slowly has opened up the playbook to include more throws downfield and over the middle. I thought we would see this sort of offense at the 8 week mark or so, but Jayden is so poised, so accurate, and so good at getting the ball out while avoiding turnovers that we're seeing him make grown man throws and run the best offense in the league as a result. 

For a rookie QB to have more scoring drives than incompletions is crazy. For Jayden to have these stats in back to back weeks, both on the road, is insane:

 

 

To have 2 incompletions on MNF and then go on the road on a short week (without returning to Washington inbetween, they flew directly from Cincy to Arizona and worked out all week at ASU) and put on another dominant performance cannot be praised enough. Jayden is 4 weeks into his NFL career and is pacing at MVP numbers. Literally, he is pacing at better numbers than Lamar had in his 2nd MVP season. It's a LONG season, but it's worth mentioning how he's just that good.

Hopefully this dominance continues next week at home vs the Browns. I expect FedEx (can't remember the real name of the stadium and don't want to look it up because they should be better at branding it, not my fault!) to be going absolutely bonkers for the squad looking to go 4-1. It's a great time to be us. HTTC.
