While Hurts suffered an injury against that Rams that has limited him this week, he did indicate that he was making progress ahead of the NFC championship game against the Commanders.

Daniels overcame several turnovers in that Week 16 matchup, throwing five touchdowns and bringing the Commanders back from a 14-point deficit with only six seconds remaining in the game. The Commanders’ offense has been soaring since that game. After seeing Daniels twice, how will Fangio choose to defend against Washington’s attack?

The Washington Commanders are in the NFC championship game after going 12-5 in the regular season and winning two playoff games. It’s the furthest the team has advanced in more than three decades, and it comes after going 4-13 in 2023.
