The Washington Commanders announced their Super Bowl intentions for 2025 with yet another aggressive offseason.
General manager Adam Peters swung trades for Pro Bowl left tackle Laremy Tunsil and All-Pro receiver Deebo Samuel to give Jayden Daniels two huge upgrades at two key positions.
Those moves tell us that it is Super Bowl or bust (of sorts) for Washington, and some have doubts over whether both Samuel and Tunsil can be the players the franchise needs them to be.
But what if they are?
For CBS Sports' Cody Benjamin, everything comes together perfectly for Washington in 2025 and culminates in a Super Bowl win.
"Adam Peters' big swings (i.e. Deebo Samuel, Laremy Tunsil) only serve to highlight Jayden Daniels' infectious magic, and Washington's dynamic quarterback wins the nation's capital its first Super Bowl since 1991," Benjamin writes.
One can only imagine the scenes if Daniels, in his second year, manages to lead this team to ultimate glory.
And let 's not get it twisted, that is exactly what the franchise wants to get out of 2025.
They have mortgaged future draft capital, plus re-signed key veterans in Bobby Wagner and Zach Ertz to have a genuine shot at the Super Bowl, with all chips pushed firmly into the middle of the table.
Now the roster has to do it.
Terry McLaurin's contract saga is getting a little ugly, but there is hope that things will be worked out before it gets past the point of no return.
If the Commanders are to win the Super Bowl, as Benjamin puts as his best-case scenario, they will need McLaurin riding shotgun next to Deebo.
Washington as 2025 NFL champs? Stranger things have happened.
