  • Redskins changes needed

    Glad to see they added Wilks to help the defense. Now they need to bring in a seasoned offensive line coach to help. When SF rushed 3 on the final play and all 3 made to the QB, you know there are issues. With all the soft tissue injuries, time to take a look at the strength and conditioning program! I think they should go all out for University of Tennessee strength and conditioning coach Derek Owings.. named 2025 FootballScoops Strength and Conditioning Coach of the year. Love the podcast!

  • Good stuff

    Hi Al - love the podcast. Grew up in the DMV during the RFK glory days but have been living in Central America for the last six years.

    No one here in Costa Rica appreciates the misery of being a commandoskins fan so your podcast helps me “in that space” and for that I’ll be forever grateful.

    Keep up the good work my man!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 1,439: conversation with Kevin Sheehan on state of Washington Commanders' season and more
Q: What would have to happen in order for Dan Quinn to be Washington's head coach beyond this season?
Sheehan says winning the division and a home playoff game would give Quinn a strong chance to return, while failing to win a playoff game would make his return unlikely.
Episode 1,439: conversation with Kevin Sheehan on state of Washington Commanders' season and more
Q: Will Washington be in the hunt come Thanksgiving?
Sheehan says yes, arguing that Jayden Daniels gives Washington a chance in its games and that winning seven of the remaining 11 could put the team in contention.
Episode 1,441: analysis with John Keim on state of Adam Peters/Dan Quinn regime and more
Q: Is Washington being 1-4-1 more about bad players or bad coaching, and is the team's talent better than that record?
Keim says the roster is better than the record but not especially strong. Injuries, coaching and coordinator changes, roster-building shortcomings, penalties and execution have all contributed to the poor results.
Episode 1,441: analysis with John Keim on state of Adam Peters/Dan Quinn regime and more
Q: As long as Dan Quinn does not lose the locker room, is he safe until the end of the season, or could the results lead Washington to fire him during the regular season?
Keim expects Quinn to remain the coach for the season unless the team's situation becomes a disaster or players appeal for a change. He would be surprised by an in-season firing while Washington remains mathematically in contention.
Episode 1,422: Jayden Daniels practices, Marcus Mariota and Sonny Styles win major weekly awards and more
Q: Do you believe that this is Alex Ovechkin's final season as an NHL player?
El-Bashir thinks it is likely, but says Ovechkin could reconsider if he has a strong season, feels good, and the team is winning.
