Happy Sale Week! Also, will 2023 be the year Antonio Gibson's pass-catching role truly increases? Jul 17, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are here for one last Beltway Football before the big day where you-know-what happens, and the beginning of this show serves as a preview of you-know-what. Then, the fellas wonder if Antonio Gibson's declaration about wanting to line up more as a receiver in 2023 will be heard and then react to Mitch's analysis of Eric Bieniemy and Andrew Wylie's roles in the Netflix show "Quarterback."

JP's in-depth one-on-one with Deshazor Everett and a segment on Jason Wright's future in Washington Jul 05, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are back for another Beltway Football, one that begins on a serious note. Recently, JP caught up with ex-Washington safety Deshazor Everett, who last made major news due to his involvement in a car accident that took the life of his girlfriend. In their chat, Deshazor explains his remorse over the tragedy, where he's at mentally and what his purpose is moving forward, among other things. After hearing that, the three hosts transition into a football segment, which is based on Jason Wright's future once this new ownership group takes over. If you like podcasts where Pete reveals his newfound adoration for a certain beer and JP has a supremely simple reaction to last week's Wright-related developments, then this is the episode for you.

What's more likely for Washington: 5 wins or 10 wins? Plus, remembering some players' "perfect" individual games Jun 29, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey zoom past an uncomfortable first topic in order to debate the following: Is it more likely that Washington wins 10 games in 2023 or wins just five of them? From there, Mitch gets upset with the league's "malarkey" gambling policy before Pete introduces a topic that asks the hosts to recall the most "perfect" individual performances (both well-known and more obscure) they've seen by members of the organization. Names mentioned in that segment include Doug Williams, Santana Moss and Darrel Young, among many others. If you like podcasts where Pete recaps his trip to Mexico City (and probably provides a little too much info on one aspect) and the term "plough horse" is used on multiple occasions, then this is the episode for you.

MAILBAG POD: Answering questions about Chase Young and the most Ashburn Syndrome-y player of all time Jun 23, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are very thankful for the faithful followers of Beltway Football, because those faithful followers supplied excellent questions for this mailbag edition of their program. During their time together, the hosts answer inquiries about what Chase Young must do in 2023, who the most Ashburn Syndrome-y player of all time is, who could potentially be the odd man out on offense this season and what Washington moment they'd have loved to be a fly on the wall for. If you like podcasts where there is some truly disgraceful math done and the destination of Pete's upcoming vacation is revealed, then this is the episode for you.

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey lead off this Beltway Football by listening to JP recap a neat community event that Terry McLaurin led on Tuesday evening and then reacting to Josh Harris and Joe Gibbs' new business dealings. From there, Mitch looks back on his intriguing and eventful trip to an F1 race Montreal, with JP and Pete sending questions his way as he covers it. Don't fret, there is football discussion, too, as the hosts delve into what to make of the Kareem Hunt-to-Washington rumors and, lastly, conduct their latest overview of the Commanders' offensive line. Finally, you'll get JP's interview with assistant coach Juan Castillo, who's got tons of insight on the O-line and blocking and plenty of other aspects of that area of the game. If you like podcasts where Pete reviews a delightful dessert he munched on and Mitch confuses a basketball with fine china (you'll understand soon), then this is the episode for you.

Listing the offseason's most impressive Commanders and pushing back completely on the idea of a Chase Young trade Jun 14, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey initiate this Beltway Football by discussing the possible dates that the league's owners could approve the sale of Commanders before transitioning into a segment meant to review the offseason up to this point. Who on Washington has stood out for positive reasons and who has stood out for not-so-positive reasons? The hosts identify a bevy of names that fit into both categories, including Jahan Dotson, Kam Curl and Dyami Brown. Then, to wrap up their portion of the show, they all take turns shooting down the idea of the Commanders trading Chase Young (no matter how desperate Steelers fans seem about that potential transaction) before briefly discussing this weekend's US Open. And lastly, you'll hear JP's chat with new primary tight ends coach Todd Storm, who runs through the key guys in his room and what he enjoys about each of them. If you like podcasts where Pete's wardrobe choice highlights his lack of shredded-ness and Mitch flummoxes JP with a sorta-cliche, then this is the episode for you.

From there, JP and Pete both lay out one thing they've learned about the Commanders after consuming their spring and early summer workouts before tossing to JP's recent one-on-one with receivers coach Bobby Engram and Tress Way's latest session with the general media. If you like podcasts where JP explores a new flavor of potato chip, then this is the episode for you.

MINICAMP 1 RECAP: Chase Young returns and Pete delivers another brazen take about a Commanders player Jun 06, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey digested the Commanders' opening day of minicamp on Tuesday and are here to pass along the pertinent info that came out of it. Chase Young's return kicks things off, as the hosts discuss how he looked on the field, what he said off of it and generally (hopefully) close the book on this particular part of Young's career. From there, they transition to a conversation about Sam Howell's hot-and-cold practice and how (if at all) Jacoby Brissett factors into the QB dynamic. Then, to close, Pete delivers a take about an unproven Commander that he believes will soon turn into an elite Commander (gulp). If you like podcasts where JP reveals his annual birthday dessert and Mitch experiences quite a few odd slip-ups, then this is the episode for you.

What stood out to us after hearing from Eric Bieniemy & Jack Del Rio as well as the Commanders' assistant coaches Jun 01, 2023

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey were in Ashburn again on Thursday, but instead of watching on-field action, they spent their time at the Commanders' facility chatting with the club's coaches who aren't named Ron Rivera. First, they listened as Eric Bieniemy and Jack Del Rio addressed the media, and then they spent time bouncing around from scrum-to-scrum with various Washington assistants, all of whom were made available following the coordinators. So, thanks to your hosts, you'll hear everything worthwhile from their experience with all of those football minds. Then, to finish, you'll get a mashup of responses from OL coach Travelle Wharton, DL coach Jeff Zgonina, WRs coach Bobby Engram, LBs coach Steve Russ and ST coach Nate Kaczor. If you like podcasts where the age-old debate of who's more likely to have a baby first between Mitch and Pete is reignited, then this is the episode for you.
