David Blough might have an already established relationship with Jayden Daniels, but the Washington Commanders' new offensive coordinator is not going to give his quarterback an easy ride. This is all about pushing forward toward a common goal. The scheme will change, and Blough will leave no stone unturned in his quest to maximize the elite traits Daniels has at his disposal.

I found this comment interesting because we already saw the offense with Cousins against Miami, and it looked unchanged from the offense the team has been running since 2024. The Dolphins game got away from the Falcons, but they didn't come out playing any differently than they had all season. Most runs were from pistol, most passing plays were out of the gun.

The possibilities range from him hitting the ground running as one of the league's new prolific passers, still being efficient but not as productive due to Bijan Robinson's greatness, or having accuracy woes leading to difficult stretches. There is no denying Penix Jr.'s tremendous arm talent, from throwing with anticipation to completing precise tight-window throws where only his intended target can catch it. It's a matter of him doing it consistently.
