Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that Ford Field will be the "loudest" stadium that the Commanders play in this season.
Dan Campbell sent a caution to the Washington Commanders and Jayden Daniels about how intimidating Detroit Lions fans can be in the NFL playoffs. As Detroit Lions fans get closer to the first Super Bowl in franchise history,
Ford Field topped out at 134.3 decibels during the team’s divisional game last season against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. That mark trails only Kansas City and Seattle for the loudest stadium in the NFL.
The Commanders’ willingness to gamble on fourth down stems in large part from its rookie quarterback, Jayden Daniels, the 6-foot-4, 210-pound LSU product. In short-yardage situations, Washington can often get Daniels out of the pocket with the option to either throw or pass.
The Lions have one of the game's most-rampant fan bases, and they'll be on full display as the team begins its playoff run Saturday against the Washington Commanders.
Za'Darius Smith already sacked Jayden Daniels once this season, but the Lions DE knows he has his work cut out for him in Saturday's playoff game.
Nolan Bianchi, John Niyo, Richard Silva and Bob Wojnowski of The Detroit News offer predictions for the Lions-Commanders NFC Divisional Round game.
The Washington Commanders head north on Saturday to face the Detroit Lions at Ford Field in the divisional playoff round. Last week, the Commanders defeated the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on a last-second field goal by Zane Gonzalez,
Byran DeArdo, NFL writer for CBS Sports: "The Lions don't play dull postseason games. Each of their three playoff games last year came down to the wire, and I expect that to again be the case on Saturday night. Washington will make them earn it, but the Lions should come out on top while getting to within a game of the Super Bowl."
Which brings us to today’s quiz. One advantage that Goff has over Daniels is his familiarity with big spots in NFL games, with 20 regular season game-winning drives and two more in the playoffs.. With that being said, can you name every NFL QB in the Super Bowl era with multiple game-winning drives in the postseason? Good luck!
The cost of entry is inching downward for Saturday’s Detroit Lions vs. Washington Commanders matchup in the NFC Divisional playoffs.
Jayden Daniels has blown past so many expectations and optimistic projections during his rookie year. Perceived ceilings are being raised by the week and must go higher after he casually walked into hostile territory and lead his Washington Commanders to a road playoff win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
