Commanders Rookie Quarterback Makes History with Win Against Bengals
Two exciting games on Monday ended NFL Week 3. One featured Washington Commanders rookie quarterback making history when his team faced the Cincinnati Bengals, and the other saw a team attempting to continue its winning streak.
Every rookie gets that “Welcome to the NFL” moment every once in a while. As the starting quarterback for the Washington Commanders in Monday night’s shocking 38-33 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, rookie Jayden Daniels proved to be just that.
Almost flawless in his primetime debut, Daniels—the second overall choice of this year’s draft—threw for 254 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for another. According to bookie pay per head service experts, he missed only two passes out of 23 attempts. Throughout the game at Cincinnati’s Paycor Stadium, the 23-year-old caused problems for the Bengals’ defense with his pinpoint passing and nimble footwork.
Washington’s Rookie Quarterback Makes History
In addition to setting a record for a rookie, Daniels created history in his performance with a completion percentage of 91.3%. The NFL confirmed this. In addition, he broke a record that had not been broken since at least 1950: he threw for 250 yards and several touchdowns, ran for a score, and completed more than 90% of his throws, according to gambling software experts. Not only that, but Daniels joined Justin Herbert and Dak Prescott as the only rookie quarterbacks since 2000 to score a touchdown throwing and a touchdown running in the same primetime game.
With 2:10 remaining in the game, Washington took a 12-point lead thanks to Daniels’ second touchdown throw of the night, which he completed to Terry McLaurin on a 27-yard completion. With forty seconds remaining, the Bengals could trim the advantage to five on a one-yard run by Zach Moss, but the Commanders held on for their second victory of the season.
Subsequently, Washington’s rookie head coach, Dan Quinn, praised the quarterback. The victory kickstarts Washington’s season, while the loss deepens the Bengals’ terrible start to the year.
After falling to the Patriots in Week 1, Cincinnati’s setback on Monday was their second home loss to an unexpected opponent, bringing their season winless.
Although quarterback Joe Burrow and the rest of the offense appeared to be a formidable danger, the Bengals’ defense could not contain Washington’s attack, allowing Daniels to score at will. Because both attacks were so effective, no team had to deal with a punt or turnover for the first time in an NFL game since 1940.
The preseason hype around a potential run to the Super Bowl has faded since the team’s 0-3 start.
Bills Vs. Jaguars
On Monday, Buffalo dominated Jacksonville, 47-10, largely thanks to quarterback Josh Allen’s remarkable performance. At Highmark Stadium, Allen had an explosive first half, leading the Bills to a 34-3 lead on the strength of 22 completions out of 28 attempts for 247 yards and four touchdowns.
With the outcome decided, the second half was more leisurely as Buffalo improved to 3-0 to begin the season. Aside from the first-quarter offensive outburst, there was a memorable moment in the first half when Damar Hamlin recorded his first interception. Hamlin was playing in his first Monday night game since having a heart attack last year.
Following a tackle and a gunshot to the head and chest, the Bills safety slumped in January of last year’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. He required resuscitation and defibrillation after losing his pulse, so medical personnel administered cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). He spent almost a week in a Cincinnati hospital while on a ventilator.
A condition known as commotio cordis, which may lead to hazardous fibrillation (abnormal heartbeats) when the heart’s electrical charge is disrupted, was eventually identified as the cause of Hamlin’s cardiac arrest.
After intercepting Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence in the middle of the second quarter on Monday night, Hamlin returned the ball 19 yards to the Jacksonville 41-yard line. He celebrated with his teammates in front of the fans.
