The start to Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels’s NFL career has been nothing short of sensational. Daniels has delivered a masterclass in efficiency, completing a jaw-dropping 82.1 percent of his passes through the first four games—a record for any quarterback at the start of the NFL season. To put that in perspective, the great Tom Brady held the previous record with a 79.2 percent completion rate during his 2007 campaign. Talk about raising the bar!
Breaking Records Left and Right
Commanders’ offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury has undoubtedly played a crucial role in this remarkable performance. Known for fostering high completion percentages, Kingsbury’s genius is evident. He was at the helm of the Cardinals when Kyler Murray achieved a dazzling 76.1 percent completion rate in 2021, which sits pretty at fourth all-time. The third-place honor belongs to Geno Smith, who started strong in 2022 for the Seahawks.
A Historic Performance Against the Cardinals
In Sunday’s game, Daniels was nothing short of a maestro, orchestrating his attack with precision and flair. He dismissed the Cardinals with a clinic, completing a stellar 26-of-30 passes. The Commanders proudly announced that Daniels is the first quarterback in NFL history to post back-to-back games with a completion percentage of 85 percent or higher. Let that sink in!
The Wind in Washington’s Sails
As if that weren’t enough to get your blood pumping, the Commanders are off to a blazing 3-1 start. The buzz is palpable—like a long-awaited rain in the desert. It’s clear that the extended drought for a solid quarterback in Washington may finally be over. Fans and analysts alike are starting to believe that Jayden Daniels could be the real deal.
Daniels isn’t just breaking records; he’s setting new standards. Football aficionados are glued to their screens, eagerly waiting to see what this new star will do next. And as they say in the NFL, the sky’s the limit!
