Where does the Commanders' Jayden Daniels rank among the best rookie QBs in NFL history? The answer might surprise after his two playoff victories.

The finalists for the NFL’s eight top awards voted on by the Associated Press — including MVP, Player of the Year, Rookie of the Year and Coach of the Year honors — were revealed this week. A combined five former LSU stars, headlined by its two recent Heisman quarterbacks, are finalists for a combined four different awards.

Jayden Daniels, the 24-year-old rookie quarterback nicknamed "The Terminator," is leading the Washington Commanders on an unforgettable playoff run, with just one win standing between him and NFL history. Daniels has already transformed the Commanders from perennial strugglers to NFC Championship contenders, showcasing unshakable composure and record-breaking talent in his debut season. His 3,568 passing yards, 25 touchdowns, and 891 rushing yards have cemented him as one of the most dynamic quarterbacks in the league. Washington faces the Philadelphia Eagles, a team they narrowly defeated just weeks ago, in a high-stakes showdown that could send the Commanders to their first Super Bowl in over 30 years. With legendary performances in clutch moments, including 12 fourth-quarter or overtime touchdown passes, Daniels is proving why he’s a generational talent. Can he lead Washington to glory, or will the Eagles spoil the party? This game promises to deliver high-octane drama and potentially rewrite NFL history. Producer: Pranav Prabhat
