The Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Washington Commanders were the focal point of this week's Sunday Night Football finale of the NFL's Wild Card Weekend. And With Jayden Daniels and Baker Mayfield being two of the hottest quarterbacks in the NFL this season, this was one of the weekend's most anticipated matchups.

Fans Rip Cris Collinsworth During Commanders, Bucs Game
Despite the importance of this matchup, fans had other things on their agenda during the NFL Wild Card edition of Sunday Night Football. NBC Sports analyst Cris Collinsworth was the center of attention during the Commanders and Buccaneers matchup.
Fans on social media were fed up with Collinsworth's analysis during the clash between Tampa Bay and Washington and did not hesitate to voice their disappointment on Sunday Night.
"The NFL and NBC should be fined heavily for allowing Cris Collinsworth to call a playoff game. The guy just can not let the game breathe," one fan said on X, formerly known as Twitter.
"Good lord Cris Collinsworth is terrible," another fan added.
Nick Sirianni Pays Homage to Jayden Daniels
Jayden Daniels had one of the most impressive seasons for a rookie quarterback in recent memory. Unfortunately, despite Daniels' heroics, it wasn't enough to win the Commanders the divisional crown this season. The Philadelphia Eagles were crowned the NFC East division champs in Week 17. But even with Philadelphia capturing the division crown this season, Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni knows he'll have his hands full dealing with Daniels for years to come.
"[H]e's come out on fire. He's got his team playing really well. Hats off to their coaches. You know, I just have a lot of respect for that coaching staff and the players on that team. He's playing really good football. It's very obvious. I think everybody can see that," Sirianni said.
"A really good player who started off on fire, so we'll have a challenge here this week. Can't say enough good things about him. You know, how he's going to the right place with the football, being accurate, the things he can do when things do break down. I have got a lot of respect for him."
