Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn enters the 2024 NFC Championship Game with experience from 2016 to help him. That postseason, the former Atlanta Falcons HC was at the helm of the NFL‘s worst Super Bowl meltdown against Tom Brady and the New England Patriots.

The NFL Championship Game became the NFC Championship Game ... Philadelphia Eagles 2016: Atlanta Falcons 2015: Carolina Panthers 2014: Seattle Seahawks 2013: Seattle Seahawks 2012: San Francisco ...

Following the Eagles' divisional round victory over the Rams, Falcons RB Bijan Robinson showed his appreciation towards Saquon Barkley.

Daniels entered Sunday's NFC championship game against the Philadelphia Eagles five yards short of the record for most passing yards by a rookie in the playoffs. He got there early.

To say that the NFC Championship Game and the precipice of the Super Bowl is unfamiliar territory for the Washington Commanders is simultaneously false and true

Zach Ertz spent the first 8 1/2 years of his NFL career with the Philadelphia Eagles. He even helped them win a Super Bowl during that run.

Panthers, who improved from 7-8-1 to 15-1, were one of the longest shots ever to advance to the Super Bowl from the NFC.

Eight years later, Quinn is back on the cusp of a Super Bowl berth, this time as the first-year head coach of the Commanders. With a new head coach in Quinn and a rookie quarterback in Jayden Daniels, Washington has reached the NFC championship game for the first time since 1992.

The Patriots elected to attempt an onside kick, which consequently set up the Falcons at New England's 41-yard line. A holding penalty and nine-yard sack resulted in a three-play drive, and Atlanta was unable to capitalize on the excellent starting field position.

The Commanders’ three conversions against the Lions — one of the NFL’s most aggressive fourth-down teams — all led to touchdowns. The Eagles converted 73 percent (19-for-26) during the regular season on the back of one of the most unstoppable plays in the NFL: the “Tush Push.” Nine out of 10 fourth-and-1 runs moved the chains.

The Washington Commanders have a good one in quarterback Jayden Daniels, who shined in the 2024 NFL season's playoffs.
