The significance of the Week 8 NFL game between the Washington Commanders and Chicago Bears hinges on the health of Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels.

This was supposed to be the first matchup between the top two picks in the 2024 NFL Draft, and kickoff was even delayed until late afternoon as Daniels and Bears quarterback Caleb Williams gave their respective teams an encouraging start to the season. But Daniels left the Commanders' 40-7 win over the Carolina Panthers in Week 7 with a rib injury and his status for Sunday remains in doubt.

It doesn't change the fact that the Commanders (5-2) are atop the NFC East and the Bears (4-2) are more competitive than most expected in the preseason, with an interesting supporting cast that includes their rookie Provide quarterbacks a platform to achieve immediate success.

Chicago has rattled off three straight wins, with Williams gaining momentum with each successive performance before the team's bye last week. He completed nearly 80 percent of his passes in the Bears' recent win against the Jacksonville Jaguars. Daniels, meanwhile, leads all NFL starters in completion percentage (75.6) and is leading a revamped program under the direction of new offensive coordinator and former Arizona Cardinals coach Kliff Kingsbury.

If Daniels is unable to play against the Bears, former No. 2 overall draft pick Marcus Mariota will start in his place for the Commanders. Mariota threw for 205 yards and two touchdowns in relief of Daniels as he left the game last Sunday. The circumstances set the stage for an exciting NFC battle.
