Vic Fangio's first season in the NFL was 1986, and the Eagles defensive coordinator has seen a lot of rookie quarterbacks in his time.

Shortly after Jayden Daniels guided his Washington Commanders to an impressive 45-31 divisional-round playoff win at the top-seeded Detroit Lions this past weekend, Commanders head coach Dan Quinn made it clear he's never seen a rookie quarterback perform as Daniels has since Week 1 of the campaign.

Daniels is an upset win over the Eagles from reaching the Super Bowl and completely changing the Washington franchise.
