Two NFC contenders looking to clinch their respective divisions face off on Sunday night, as the Washington Commanders host the Atlanta Falcons. Jayden Daniels’ historic outing vs. the Philadelphia Eagles led Washington to a win last Sunday, while Michael Penix Jr. won his first NFL start vs. the lowly New York Giants.
The Falcons outscored the Giants by 27 points, but Penix didn’t account for a single touchdown.

It was the passing game that carried Washington vs. Philly last week. Olamide Zaccheaus caught five passes for a team-high 70 yards and two touchdowns, including the game-winner, while Terry McLaurin caught five passes for 60…
