Commanders vs. Buccaneers odds and prop bets for NFC Wild Card game

Postseason involvement has been a foreign concept to the Washington Commanders more often than not over the last two decades. Having a legitimate chance to make noise is an even rarer feeling for fans.

That's all changed under the new regime. The Commanders are on a fairytale run with head coach Dan Quinn leading the charge. They won 12 games and secured the NFC's sixth playoff seed. To say that exceeded expectations would be an understatement of epic proportions.

The hard work isn't done. Quinn and his squad want this journey to continue. There is hope where once there was nothing but misery. The Commanders also believe they can get the better of anybody when firing on all cylinders.

Washington's postseason tilt begins with a trip to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday Night Football. This is a battle worthy of the primetime stage. The Commanders were beaten at Raymond James Stadium in Week 1, but this is not the same team these days.

Get your popcorn ready. This has all the makings of a playoff classic that could go either way.

Jayden Daniels prop bets

The Commanders have a superstar on their hands in rookie quarterback Jayden Daniels. His supreme poise, unrelenting desire, and ability to come through in the clutch propelled Washington into the postseason. That was a phenomenal accomplishment in Year 1 of his professional career, but he's not getting complacent by any stretch of the imagination.

Daniels left last weekend's game at the Dallas Cowboys in the first half with a leg issue. Any slight concerns fans may have had were alleviated with full participation in practice throughout the week. He doesn't carry an injury designation and will have the expectations of an entire organization on his young shoulders.

This is nothing Daniels hasn't experienced before. He's passed every test with flying colors up to now. While the playoffs are a different challenge entirely, the Heisman Trophy winner out of LSU has proven capable of shouldering a significant burden on countless occasions this season.

Daniels' over/under for passing yards is 235.5 according to FanDuel Sportsbook. This is available at -113 depending on which side of the total takes your fancy (bet $113 to win $100).

The Cajon High School product is expected to complete around 22.5 passes from 32.5 attempts. Daniels' over/under for passing touchdowns stands at 1.5.

• Over 1.5 passing touchdowns: -118 (bet $118 to win $100)
• Under 1.5 passing touchdowns: -110 (bet $110 to win $100)
