Jayden Daniels 'Trying to Get Over Pissed Off Mode' After Commanders' Loss to Eagles

Jayden Daniels is still frustrated about the Washington Commanders' 55-23 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship Game.

The quarterback confirmed that the Commanders' playoff exit continues to bother him during a Thursday appearance on Pro Football Talk.

"I'm still trying to get over pissed off mode," Daniels said (1:40 mark).

"I think we just gave a really good team a lot of opportunities," Daniels later explained. "We made a lot of mistakes that game. Obviously, turnovers are going to be the big thing that people talk about."

"That's probably going to haunt me for awhile," he added.

While the final score was lopsided, Daniels and the Commanders stayed within striking distance of Philadelphia for most of the contest. The Eagles only held a 34-23 lead heading into the fourth quarter, but they scored 21 points over the final 15 minutes of action to ultimately seal the win.

Ball security was an issue for Washington throughout the contest. While the Commanders recorded 350 total yards, they turned the ball over four times while the Eagles didn't commit a single turnover.

Daniels finished 29-of-48 for 255 yards and a touchdown to go along with an interception. He also rushed for a team-high 48 yards and picked up a second score on the ground.

Despite the loss in the conference title game, the Commanders' 2024 campaign was a massive success. They finished with a 12-5 record, winning their first playoff game since the 2005 season and making their first NFC Championship Game appearance since the 1991 season.

Daniels was incredible throughout his rookie year, throwing for 3,568 yards and 25 touchdowns compared to nine interceptions. He also rushed for 891 yards, setting a new record for rookie quarterbacks.

While the LSU product is still upset over the Commanders' postseason loss, the future is extremely bright in Washington.
