How accurate were Washington Commanders quarterbacks to the end zone in 2025?
Well, Warren Sharp of SharpFootballAnalysis.com compiled his data from the 2025 season and ranked, for NFL observers, all the quarterbacks who qualified for a rating. With a 17-game regular season in 2025, Sharp made the minimum number of passes attempted into the end zone at a modest 20.
However, you guessed it: Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels, having such an up-and-down season, playing in only seven of the 17 regular-season games, did not meet the minimum of 20 passes into the end zone. Daniels' backup, Marcus Mariota, did meet the minimum requirement and thus made Sharp's 2025 rankings.
It's not good news for Mariota, but then again, with the receivers the Commanders had on the field at times last season, and only recording five wins, it's little wonder that Mariota placed 25th in the rankings, tied with, incidentally, Chicago Bears starter Caleb Williams and ***** ans starter Cam Ward.
Daniels, after a brilliant, exciting 2024 season, cooled off in 2025. Following a 2024 in which Daniels completed 69 percent of his passing attempts, he completed only 60.6 percent in 2025. 25 touchdown passes in 2024 became only 8 last season. Daniels' successful passing rate dropped from 47.1% to 44.7% last season. Yards per attempt lowered from 7.4 YPA to 6.7 YPA. Meanwhile, Mariota had exactly the league minimum of 20 attempts to just get into the rankings.
