00:00Phone lines are packed, and I want to let folks talk after an incredible win
00:04for the Washington Commanders over the Seattle Seahawks.
00:07They have changed the course of this 2026 season, period.
00:11They have changed the course of this season.
00:14With that dub, let's start with our guy Eazy-E in Rock Vegas.
00:19Eazy-E, what's up, man?
00:22What's up, Rock Vegas?
00:24I'm going to tell you something right now.
00:25I'm not splitting no pie.
00:27This is the type of win that every single man, coach, GM, owner, part owner,
00:33everybody needs to just throw pie on the table and eat it.
00:36They came out in that game yesterday.
00:39Like they had the main course, and all they wanted was some dessert.
00:42And boy, did they get it.
00:44You know, everybody did not give us a chance.
00:49And I guarantee you, going into London, that won't be happening no more.
00:56The way that this team played yesterday was just the way you play on all three phases.
01:04They didn't get some return from the special teams, but Luke did his job.
01:09Rashad White had a nice return.
01:12Everybody just stepped up, did their job, and nobody whined and cried because of injuries.
01:18This is the type of team we need moving forward.
01:20This is how excited I was yesterday.
01:22I was out watching the game at the restaurant.
01:25I was sitting a little ways away from some commander saying, I got up and ran to the other side,
01:30dap everybody up, and my sir goes, how did you get to the other side of the restaurant that fast?
01:36I said, I'm sorry.
01:37I'm just excited.
01:38And then another thing before I go, there was a Seedbook fan on Twitter.
01:43I love Twitter with these fans, but I'm just sorry.
01:45I got to mention this.
01:46He said, BTA.
01:47I think we know what that means.
01:48So I bookmarked it.
01:50I humbled myself on my bookmarked it.
01:51I didn't respond.
01:53And then when the game was over, I said, BTA, what?
01:56That's what I'm talking about.
01:58Easy, you're cutting out, bro.
02:00We'll put you on hold.
02:01We'll see if we can figure that out.
02:02But Easy's obviously excited, Brian.
02:04Yeah, we'll put a little BTA on him.
02:07Yeah, man.
02:09That was just a good ball game, man.
02:12I think it was exciting.
02:13And I think, you know, Washington did enough.
02:17Marcus Mariota, after the game, said it, and I think he deserves some real credit because
02:21I've certainly been critical when the time calls, too.
02:25Dan Quinn puts a belief into his players.
02:30And it is easy to roll your eyes with some of the culture talk and the brotherhood stuff.
02:34But you saw that on display yesterday.
02:38A relentlessness, a resiliency, you know?
02:41And I think, like, someone asked us, the guy was talking last week about will they turn
02:48their back on him and things like that.
02:49And we were like, no, no, no.
02:52They respond to Dan.
02:54And that proved it yesterday.
02:56Now, you want to see that happen.
02:58You don't have to get in the dumps for it to happen anymore.
03:02Right.
03:03But, listen, man, when you get a win like that, it does something to the psyche of the
03:08whole team, psyche of individual players.
03:11And if those guys can just carry that, whatever it was that got you all to come out and play
03:16like that, tap into that every week.
03:19Totally.
03:19I think also it's like, Brian, these guys, Quinn talks about emptying the tank, leaving
03:27it all on the field, right?
03:29Yeah.
03:29When you're a quarterback, when Marcus Mariota has to go in for an IV in the locker room
03:34in the fourth quarter, shows that he's leaving everything out there.
03:38You know what I mean?
03:40Yes.
03:40And Dan Quinn, when he spoke after the game, I reached out to somebody with the team.
03:51I was like, is he sick?
03:52And he's like, no, man, he's just exhausted.
03:55Because when Quinn spoke, he usually has an energy and enthusiasm and he just seemed gassed.
04:03And I just wondered if he was fighting that same cold I was fighting all last week.
04:07And look.
04:08I mean, they all, they left everything on that field.
04:12You can go out there and play a football game and when you're done and you left it all out
04:18there, you feel like you're sick.
04:20You got nothing else.
04:22You know, it's times I finish a game and sit at my locker and they're like, you good?
04:29I couldn't move.
04:31I just sat there until I finally was able to stand up and go to the damn shower and just
04:35let the cold water hit the back of your neck until you begin to come through again.
04:41But it's some of them games that are draining, brother.
04:44Look, that emotion.
04:45Look, I was tired after the game last night because the emotion I was getting from watching
04:50these dudes play, man, the up and down, but the constant fight back, that got me going,
04:55man.
04:56Totally.
04:57I mean, it takes a lot out of you and I mean, I've been in locker rooms where guys have
05:02gotten
05:02the note where they're getting drug tested and they have to sit there and chug water for
05:08like a half hour because they don't even have anything left in their body to fill the cup.
05:13You know what I'm saying?
05:14Like, I don't think average fans recognize the level with which it is required to get it
05:20done.
05:21You know, like just the whole thing of getting the information about Leo and the stuff he has
05:27he has to get a surgery season ending.
05:29And I just said, I said, look, man, this game is tough, man.
05:33And I say that because sometimes people act as if this is the easiest damn game in the
05:39world.
05:40These guys go out there and they balance some stuff.
05:42They put themselves in situations and you never know when that moment comes, man.
05:47So this is tough.
05:49So I'm praying for that dude, man, because he brings, he was bringing some stuff to yesterday.
05:54Yeah, for sure.
05:56Let's go to our boy Toothpick down in Texas.
05:59What's up, Pick?
06:00What's up, Pick?
06:02Hey, what's good?
06:02Thanks for taking my call.
06:04So, JP, my pie, my credit pie is going to be a deep dish.
06:09So it's going to have more than 100%.
06:11So 25% goes to, 25% easily goes to offense, defense, special teams, and the fans.
06:200-2 team comes home and I can feel the fans passion through the TV, right?
06:26The other 35% goes to the coaching staff for coaching all, not just the starting 22 and
06:33whoever's on special teams, but coaching up the whole team, multiple adjustments and getting
06:39the team to reset after what happened to Leo, and I just want to point out a couple of players
06:43real fast.
06:44If you'll let me, Amik Roberts, you guys talked about him.
06:47He's a dog.
06:48Leo, Amik Roberts, and then Sonny Stiles.
06:53Sonny Stiles played big.
06:55A rookie in his third game, setting the defense, calling the plays and setting the defense.
07:00Outstanding job by him.
07:02And then on offense, I want to go to the offensive line.
07:05I just want to go to them for being dogs in the run game, getting their face crammed
07:10in with that, but still giving Marcus the time to make the passes that he did.
07:14So thanks for taking my call, man.
07:16I appreciate it.
07:16Great call, Pick.
07:17I mean, all of it.
07:18I thought Amik Robertson was really, really good.
07:22I haven't tracked down snap counts yet.
07:24Maybe that's out there.
07:25They clearly, they cut Sammer Stiles' snaps way down.
07:30I think you saw that especially early on in this game.
07:33And I think that's kind of where this thing has to be right now.
07:37Yeah, man.
07:38You got to earn playing time now.
07:39Right.
07:40It doesn't mean it's always going to be that way, but that is how it's going to have to
07:44be right now.
07:45And just so we're crystal clear, certainly our thoughts, prayers are with Leo Chennault
07:51and his family.
07:52Definitely.
07:53That was a scary situation.
07:54Anytime you see the cart come out like that, anytime, you know, what we now know is that
07:59there's a neck injury and he's going to need surgery in his neck.
08:03I mean, just scary, scary stuff.
08:05But I was relieved just watching that game.
08:07Like, even when he was laying on the field, I saw him move his feet.
08:11I saw him move his arms.
08:13And not to take any of it lightly, but at least it appears right now that the paralysis
08:18concerns are not going to come to fruition.
08:22So, yeah, serious thoughts and prayers with Leo Chennault.
08:26And that's also now a position you'd love to get Frankie Louvoo back this week, B.
08:31Yeah, definitely.
08:33But I think the Young Bucks stepped up and showed what they're capable of, and I know
08:36that they got a taste of that, man.
08:39They want to keep that rolling, for sure.
08:41Let's go to T down in Orlando.
08:43What's up, T?
08:45Hey, how's it going, guys?
08:47Thanks for taking my call.
08:48Good, man.
08:49I want to give credit, or, you know, credit pie, primarily to the offensive and defensive
08:56lines.
08:57They did an amazing, amazing job.
08:59The receivers did a great job yesterday as well.
09:02I think I want to give a pie to everybody except for Mikey.
09:07Mikey's got to tighten up, man.
09:09He almost cost of that game with that touchdown that he was trying to block the receiver for
09:14whatever reason.
09:16Other than that, man, everybody did an amazing job, stepped up, did what they needed to do
09:20to win the game, and I'm glad to see that on tape.
09:25All right, man.
09:25Absolutely, man.
09:26Appreciate that, man.
09:26It's a good call.
09:29I think you've got to be really encouraged by a lot of things you saw yesterday, particularly
09:35offensively.
09:35Yep.
09:36And I think defensively, just creating turnovers, man, that is something that this team, when
09:42this team was good in 24, they were winning the turnover battle.
09:46And getting back to that, that felt like a little light went on.
09:50You know what I mean?
09:50They need all three of them yesterday, believe me.
09:53Jupe is in the DM.
09:53They need all three of them.
09:54Yeah, for sure.
09:55Jupe in the DMWV.
09:57What's up, Jupe?
09:59Hell to the Commanders.
10:02Let's hand up.
10:03Let's go.
10:04Let's go.
10:05It's been a long time coming.
10:07Y'all know what time it is.
10:08Time for that victory ritual.
10:09It has been a long time.
10:11It's a Ric Flair.
10:12Woo!
10:13Woo!
10:13Hey, listen.
10:15Listen.
10:16First thing first, prayers out to Leo Chanel to a speedy recovery.
10:21I'm hoping my man comes back this year.
10:23I know that's a neck injury, but I'm hoping he'll come back this year.
10:25With that being said, listen, I want to apologize.
10:29I'm sorry.
10:29I was getting tired of the Henry Daniels elbow talk.
10:32That's my guy.
10:34But you know what?
10:35He's going to do right.
10:35He's going to get right.
10:36He's going to get back on the field.
10:37We had a game to play yesterday.
10:40And these boys pulled out a much-needed win, not just for this team, but for this fan base.
10:47It was too many people walking around here.
10:50Oh, whoa, it's me.
10:51We about to be 0-6.
10:53Nah, man.
10:54It's just week three, dog.
10:55Like, we're not even – I get it.
10:58It was week 10.
10:58We only got two or three wins.
11:00It's just week three.
11:01Let the season play out.
11:03And for those folks that needed a big game yesterday, Terry out there killing it.
11:09I'm giving props to the kicker Stevens.
11:13That 57-yarder was huge.
11:15And Medrano, I've been waiting for him since day one when we drafted him,
11:19when he told us to come get him, and he showed up yesterday.
11:22So, with that being said, I've been telling myself, yo, just be neutral.
11:27You know, we win, we win.
11:29We lose, we lose.
11:30But as soon as that ball is kicked, my mind goes to, we about to win this thing,
11:35because it's any given Sunday, and we got a chance to win it.
11:38That win yesterday as a statement to the league that we're capable of running with anybody.
11:45They got work to do with those penalties, and we still was able to pull that win out.
11:51So, let's get in the lab, figure these penalties out, and let's roll with this momentum, fellas.
11:56That's all I got for y'all.
11:57Appreciate you, Juke.
11:58Thanks, bud.
11:59Good call.
12:01Haven't had the tie-out in a while.
12:04Let's go – we got a lot of dudes named Drew on the line.
12:06Drew is in Annapolis.
12:07What's up, Drew?
12:09What's going on, guys?
12:11Thank you for having my call.
12:13I just want to say, I got to give it up to the offensive line.
12:16Like, before the season, it was doom and gloom with those guys.
12:20Like, everybody thought they were going to be horrible,
12:22especially when our starting left tackle went off.
12:25And I'll tell you what, I have not heard much from them,
12:29but the starting tackles, I mean, I think that's a good thing.
12:32You haven't heard or seen any bad plays, horrible plays from them,
12:35and they've been doing great.
12:37And I know the offensive quarterback and the offensive coordinator has been
12:42helping them out with the quick throws, but, man,
12:45they've been playing good for all the games.
12:48They have, dude.
12:49Oh, yeah, man.
12:50I'll tell you this.
12:50I was on my way back from the game yesterday,
12:52and I talked to my dog, Ray Brown.
12:54And Ray said – and he was like, man, Coleman, that dude plays, man.
13:00He said, that dude can ball.
13:02And I said, yeah.
13:03I said, in 2024, he played left tackle.
13:05He was damn good at it.
13:06And then they got tonsil and they tried to move him inside because they were,
13:09I guess, trying to get the better people on the field.
13:11I said, it didn't work out as good inside for him.
13:14He went back outside.
13:15He said, well, I'm going to tell you this.
13:16Yesterday, he balled.
13:18So, you get a guy who played 20 years in the league,
13:21watch that game, and give him that type of praise.
13:23We got to start giving people credit for what they do now,
13:27not what they couldn't do before.
13:29Total.
13:29100%.
13:30100%.
13:30And maybe that's kind of the breakout that Medrano needs, right,
13:34if he's going to be out there.
13:36I'm going to keep the phones going.
13:38Rhonda is in Upper Marlboro.
13:39Hello, Rhonda.
13:40How do you do?
13:42Hi.
13:42How y'all doing today?
13:44I just want to give 100% to the whole team.
13:47The whole team.
13:48And I'm so glad these players, these coaches,
13:50did not listen to all that negativity last week.
13:53And what Ben said about this team, they played their hearts out.
13:58They left it on the field.
13:59They did.
14:00I appreciate the other callers who have come in and said the same thing.
14:04I'm saying, we got to stop being a fan base being so negative.
14:08Ben Mitch, I love you because you never do that.
14:11You never do that.
14:12And I'm glad.
14:13I hear you on the radio all the time.
14:15You don't talk that name.
14:17You say it was true, but you don't just down the team.
14:20And you're a real fan of the team.
14:22That's all I need to say.
14:24Appreciate you.
14:26Thank you, Rhonda.
14:28Great call.
14:29Yesterday was an exciting, exciting game.
14:31It was, bro.
14:32It was fun just watching people leave the stadium,
14:35watching Jeff's crazy videos.
14:37Just all of it.
14:37It was – that's –
14:39Jeff is crazy.
14:40I saw Jeff yesterday.
14:41I almost tackled him.
14:42That's why they play the games, B.
14:44Another Drew.
14:45Drew is in Graysonville.
14:46What's up, Drew?
14:47Hey, JP.
14:48How you doing?
14:49This is a great –
14:49I almost ran over Drew yesterday, man.
14:51He's running on the football field.
14:54Yeah, it was a ton of fun.
14:57And I'm kind of piling on, but I thought our two –
15:01you know, Styles and Medrano both showed up big.
15:05And we were down.
15:06We were thin at linebackers.
15:07So, having those guys step up is big time.
15:10I hope Jason is okay.
15:14I also thought –
15:15you've got to give the defense credit.
15:16Three takeaways and points after takeaways each time,
15:20including defensive points.
15:22When was the last time we saw defensive points?
15:24Yeah.
15:25I think it's been a while.
15:26That was great, man.
15:28And then the last thing was, you know,
15:30I was listening to the announcers while I was watching the game.
15:34And when Seattle came back and scored that touchdown,
15:39they said that was one of the best two-minute offenses they'd seen
15:42and one of the worst two-minute defenses, talking about Washington.
15:45And then when we had the ball and we were moving it back,
15:47they were like, Washington shouldn't be running.
15:49You know, they've got to play differently.
15:52And I just thought it was awesome that we kept the ball on the ground
15:56and just didn't give them back the ball with, you know,
16:00over two minutes left.
16:01And that's the best possible two-minute defense.
16:04Don't give them the ball.
16:05Don't give them the victory, fam.
16:06You know, so that was a great way to end that game.
16:10I agree with that.
16:11You know, closing it out.
16:12Absolutely, Drew.
16:13Getting that first down because they had used their timeouts already.
16:17I was like, man, we just get a first down here.
16:19This thing is over.
16:19Well, Drew came up with an extra pair of tickets
16:21that I eventually gave to my sister.
16:24And my sister had so much fun, Drew.
16:26Thank you very much.
16:27So, Bonnie texted me.
16:29She's like, oh, my God, Magic Johnson is here.
16:31I was like, yeah, Bonnie.
16:33Bonnie, you've got to come back to some games now.
16:35He's one of the part owners in the team.
16:37Yeah, I've got to fly Bonnie over to this game, bro.
16:39She's back now.
16:40She lives here again now.
16:42You've got to fly over to this game here.
16:43Oh, for London?
16:44You've got to keep the streak going.
16:45You've got that money, man.
16:46You know all them damn jobs you've got.
16:47I don't know.
16:48I don't know if we're buying last-minute flights to London.
16:51It'll hit you that hard over the head.
16:53Don't worry.
16:53She was so excited to see Magic, who she said he was throwing jerseys out into the crowd.
16:59And then her favorite player of all time is Joe Jacoby, and she ran into Joe Jacoby.
17:04Big Jake.
17:05Just time of her life.
17:06I think a lot of fans yesterday had an absolute blast.
17:09I think a lot of fans today had an absolute blast.
17:09I think a lot of fans today had an absolute blast.
