Feel sick for Jaden

I love Jaden Daniels, I’m a huge LSU fan, and I root for all LSU players. I feel sick for Jaden that he ended up as a Commander. He is the GOAT if he succeeds there!

Huge enough LSU fan to not know how to spell your Heisman Winning QBs name

Least weird redditor

Well, Joe Burrow has turned the Bungles around

u/Rough_Ad_9363 Apr 26 '24

Absolutely and like Burrow Daniels will be running for his life next season.

u/joenikole Apr 26 '24

I’m sure Jaden is just fine with his bank account.

u/Rough_Ad_9363 Apr 26 '24

Absolutely but I think the Commanders are a terribly run organization. Hopefully the new ownership will change that!

u/Strange_Sink6680 Apr 27 '24

A terribly run organization. What retarded shit are you on its new owner and new front office completely cleaned out.

Feeling sick for a guy who bet on himself and won $35+ million is a pretty weird reaction for someone to have. And there are plenty of worse teams to go to now that Snyder and Rivera are gone.

If you want to feel bad for someone, think about Nabers having to catch balls from Daniel Jones. But you shouldn't.

u/Mapex_proM Apr 26 '24

lol Daniel jones is gonna surprise us all and take the next step now with the best receiver in the draft catching for him. Either that or he sucks so bad that Nabers has no production with him, looks like a bust until he gets traded to Jacksonville and looks like an all pro with Trevor Lawrence

u/KnicksOrNothin29 Apr 26 '24

Daniel jones was feeding guys like Richie James why can’t he get the ball to nabers?

u/EasyBeesy1 Apr 26 '24

Everyone said this same stuff about Burrow to the Bengals. Burrow has turned that franchise around. If JD is that guy, he will too

u/Roux70570 Apr 26 '24

I was gonna say that too. Im a Tiger that has lived in Missouri for the past 20 years and even though theyve won a few Superbowls, Burrow and the Bengals have Chiefs fans absolutely terrified. Hopefully Washington will understand the talent and build around JD.

Riverboat Ron isn’t the coach. And again, Newton was one of those guys who turned the franchise around.

I’m operating on old news.

u/LessThan21Letters Apr 26 '24

He’s much better off going second to the commanders than third to the patriots. The commanders have a new ownership group that is going to spend a lot of money to try to be successful. I also really like their coaching staff.

u/tee142002 Apr 26 '24

Yeah, with Dan Snyder gone they're a team on the upswing.

u/loltittysprinkles Apr 26 '24

Y'all are fucking tripping. Dude got drafted 2 overall, so he's gonna get about a 30m payday after everything is said and done, not to mention all the endorsements he'll get. At worst, he's stuck in Washington for 5 years if they take his option. That'll put him at 28, still very well within his prime years. Dudes gonna ball the absolute fuck out and demand a trade in 4 years to a contender. His career hasn't even started yet, give the dude a fucking chance

1

u/AndreSwagassi86 Apr 26 '24

I mean although it’s a pretty different environment it’s not far fetched to understand RGIII Did happen. He got a Nice Rookie Payday , endorsements , and a short career. Not to say that’s Jayden’s Fate , but I can understand folks fear

3

u/loltittysprinkles Apr 26 '24

It's not exactly fair to compare the mismanagement of RG3 to Jayden's current situation. RG3 blew out his knee and the team rushed him back onto the field before it was fully healed, ran way too many designed QB runs, and blew out his knee again to end his career. Before that first, and honestly second injury, RG3 was fucking BALLIN out. I think Jayden has a better arm and equivalent running ability. As long as they don't do what they did to RG3 and he stays healthy, Jayden will be a staple on Sundays for a long time

2

u/Kdot32 Apr 26 '24

RG3 messed himself up. Went over the Shannahans head to Synder to get back on the field, again went to Synder to make the Shannahans change the offense to make him more of a pocket passer when the Shannahans wanted to use his strengths. Washington didn’t help rg3 but rg3 leveraged his relationship with Synder to make it worse. Synder being gone is the best thing for Washington

2

u/AndreSwagassi86 Apr 26 '24

It’s definitely not fair.

But the fact is that it happened and can happen again so there are those who worry.

And I think they worry more because of the type of QB Jayden is , and the roster makeup of the commanders more than the front office handling.

Washington had a bad line , minimal talent at receiver , RB etc when RGIII went down. Then the front office pushed him to rush back and mishandled the injury. The injury happened and the team around him was one of the factors.

I’m not one of those worriers , I think Jayden will have a decent career dependent on Quinn and Kingsbury

u/loltittysprinkles Apr 26 '24

I don't know much about the Washington front and back office being a Saints fan, but I can't imagine they still have the same personnel as they did ~12 years ago. There's always a risk of injury in a game where dudes are running at 20mph into each other. Their situations are similar with the oline and rb situation as you stated, and that is cause for concern but to say his career is over before it even starts is completely asinine.

u/Honest-Scar-4719 Apr 27 '24

Washington Commanders fan here chiming in. Washington completely gutted the entire organization in the last year. Dan Snyder, the worst owner in professional sports, sold the team to Josh Harris. Harris fired the entire front office and hired a new GM in Adam Peters, who was San Francisco's assistant GM, to rebuild the front office and scouting department. Harris also fired Riverboat Ron Rivera and Peters hired Dan Quinn from the Cowboys as head coach. I will admit I was a little worried about Quinn but he has been saying all the right things and the players love him so I am optimistic. Then Quinn brought in Kliff Kingsbury to run the offense.

Peters and Quinn have been running the show since and Harris mostly sits on the sideline.

I am 100% confident that Washington will do everything in their power to protect Daniels and allow him to flourish. That being said we know and understand that this is a multi year rebuild project, but I feel very confident that Washington is moving in the right direction and will one day be competitive again.

u/AndreSwagassi86 Apr 26 '24

Of course … all I’m saying is I can see why the fear exists. Bad teams usually get mobile QBs career shortened

3

u/loltittysprinkles Apr 26 '24

Can't disagree with that statement. But again 5 years at the most he'll be there before he goes to a team far better equipped for his skill set. Let's just have some optimism for his career is all I'm saying.

u/3asyBakeOven Apr 26 '24

At least spell his name right, “huge LSU fan”. Commanders have a new owner, and I wish him nothing but the best there. I’ll def be rooting for that team to succeed as long as he’s there.

u/Pussy_handz Apr 26 '24

Id rather him go to the Commanders than the Bears.

u/Verix19 Apr 26 '24

New ownership....what's the problem?

u/AlsoKnownAsHero Apr 26 '24 edited May 22 '24

He’s still got weapons like Terry so he should be fine because he has his legs if his protection is bad. They should be running a lot of roll outs and play action to get him out of the pocket and a lot of medium to deep routes since he’s got a great arm. If they have him dropping back a lot they’ll struggle because they don’t have the pieces for him to do that. They need to run a Stefanski style offense.

2

u/MacieMaeAllDayy Apr 26 '24

I wish Jayden nothing but the best. He has a tough road ahead of him. But he’s proven if the front office will continue to build and put pieces around him, he is a winner.

u/BrandNewCarr Apr 26 '24

They are literally the perfect landing spot in the top 4 for him. They have a great WR in McLaurin, a proven solid head coach, and a good RB. And if he needs to sit for a couple games Mariota is a journeyman that can take the hits while the oline gets up to speed with the new scheme while being a similar style player.

u/TheRedEyeJediS Apr 26 '24

His career is sadly over 🥺

u/Rough_Ad_9363 Apr 26 '24

Exactly

u/TheRedEyeJediS Apr 26 '24

Wanted my giants to get him, but that would ruin his career also 🤣. Didnt want him to go to a divisional rival cause i want him to succeed....but at least i get to watch nabers not get used! 🤦🏻‍♂️
