Jayden Daniels' rise continues.

Despite failing to complete 80 percent of his passes on Sunday, the No. 2 overall pick in this year's draft played quite well, leading the Commanders to a 34-6 victory over the Browns.

While the pressure from Cleveland's front seven could challenge Daniels, he figured it out in the second quarter. The young quarterback threw an early interception to linebacker Jeremiah Owusu-Koramoah after throwing an off-schedule 66-yard pass to Terry McLaurin. But at the end of the first half, Daniels hit receiver Dyami Brown again on a deep ball for a 41-yard touchdown. At this point, Brian Robinson had already scored two touchdowns and Austin Seibert had kicked a 27-yard field goal. The Commanders went into halftime with a 24-6 lead.

Running back Jeremy McNichols added a 3-yard run in the third quarter and Seibert kicked a 30-yard field goal for Washington to cap the scoring.

With the game out of reach, Washington substituted substitute Marcus Mariota with 12:50 left in the fourth quarter.

Daniels finished the contest 14 of 25 for 238 yards with one touchdown and one interception. He also ran for 82 yards, becoming the first player in NFL history to rush for at least 1,000 yards and rush for at least 250 yards in his first five games.

On the other hand, the Browns were completely inept on offense. The club started 0 of 12 on third down and finished 1 of 13 with an inconsequential finish late in the competition.

Cleveland's pass protection has been poor all year, and that continued into Sunday's performance against Washington. That certainly didn't help Deshaun Watson, who seemed overwhelmed in all areas. He finished 15 of 28 for 125 yards with a touchdown and a lost fumble. Jameis Winston finished the game and it was his short completion to D'Onta Foreman that gave the Browns their only third-down conversion.

To add insult to injury, the Browns lost cornerback Denzel Ward to a hamstring injury and long snapper Charley Hughlett to a rib injury during the game. Safety Grant Delpit was also evaluated for a concussion.

Washington safety Quan Martin was evaluated for a concussion and cleared, but he also had a shoulder injury.

Next week, the 4-1 Commanders will be in Baltimore to play the Ravens.

Now at 1-4, the Browns will continue play in the NFC East with a road game against the Eagles.
