Whereas three of 4 NFC East groups will finish their common season with meaningless matchups, these video games give younger gamers (and an outdated coach) the prospect to shine. Right here’s who might stand out in Week 18.
Brian Daboll | HC | New York Giants
The Giants don’t have anything to realize however all the pieces to lose in opposition to the Eagles on Sunday. Earlier than upsetting the Indianapolis Colts in Week 17, New York’s probabilities of incomes the No. 1 choose within the 2025 NFL Draft stood at 42.5%, according to Pro Football Network. Now they’ve a 20.7% probability of profitable the highest choose, one thing the workforce’s head coach says he can’t take into consideration.
“Our focus is on the opponent we’re taking part in and ourselves every week as a training workers and gamers.” Daboll said. “We do, once more, attempt to do all the pieces we will do to go on the market and play as coach pretty much as good as we will.”
Daboll could possibly be teaching his final sport with the Giants with a 3-13 report in 2024 and 18- 31-1 total in New York. In that case, he doesn’t need to finish his tenure with a loss in opposition to a division rival.
Jayden Daniels | QB | Washington Commanders
The Commanders have received 4 straight video games because of the robust play of their rookie quarterback, Daniels. He has thrown not less than one landing in his final six video games and has 15 passing scores over his final 5 begins.
Washington will end the common season in opposition to a Dallas workforce that beat them 34-26 in Week 12 regardless of getting 349 whole yards and three scores from Daniels. After all, 4 sacks and two interceptions definitely didn’t assist.
