Here's an insightful interview with Chris Thompson, as well as Week 6 over/unders Oct 11, 2019

Show notes

To start off this Redskins Talk, you'll get JP Finlay's 1-on-1 interview with Chris Thompson, who's one of the more thoughtful players on the team. In their chat, Thompson takes you inside Jay Gruden's firing and explains where his head is at as the Redskins try to break out of their winless streak. To follow that up, you'll hear Finlay, Mitch Tischler, Pete Hailey and Brian McNally's over/unders segment from Friday's MyTeams stream (13:46), which is always a fun time. If you like podcasts where Bullish Pete shows up and Thompson gets really, really honest about things with the Burgundy and Gold, then this is the episode for you.

Show notes

JP Finlay, Pete Hailey and Michael Phillips are here for this Bill Callahan-heavy Redskins Talk.

After that, they dissect some of what Callahan said to reporters after the session, focusing on his intense love for the running game as well as his handling of the QBs. Lastly, JP, Pete and Michael wonder if Callahan has any shot of being the Redskins head coach in 2020 before tossing to the press conference he gave on Wednesday so you can hear it all for yourself. If you like podcasts where Pete picks up the sexy jeans slack and JP's wacky car clock is analyzed, then this is the episode for you.

Those storylines and more are covered in this one, including a pretty contentious back-and-forth between JP, Mitch and Pete about what needs to happen with Dwayne Haskins. Take a seat and take it all in, because this was a major turn of events for the Burgundy and Gold.

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey tried to bring you a good mix of analysis and projecting about potential future moves in this Redskins Talk following the team’s loss to the Patriots.

The hosts focus on that as well as whether it’s time for Dwayne Haskins to play, the New England takeover at FedEx Field and the offense’s tiresome struggles. If you like podcasts that include some chatter about an 0-16 record and inside reporting about what happened postgame with Gruden and the front office, then this is the episode for you. And stay tuned for a possible Emergency Pod.

Case Keenum missed walkthrough Wednesday, so what does that mean for him, Dwayne Haskins and Colt McCoy? Sep 26, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey have an Urgency Pod edition of Redskins Talk, because Case Keenum is in a walking boot and missed walkthrough on Wednesday. This makes the quarterback position very interesting, because if he misses Sunday, the Redskins will have to decide between starting Dwayne Haskins or Colt McCoy. Or, he could play Sunday and then the team will have to decide who his backup is. Overall, it's a very fluid situation, and the three hosts talk about it on their own before also getting input from John Keim, Michael Phillips and Steve Whyno. Eventually, each give their opinion on who SHOULD start if Case can't, and who WILL start if Case can't. To close, they focus on another injury-riddled group: the offensive line. Brandon Scherff and Chase Roullier are dinged up, so how alarming is that? If you like podcasts where Mitch presents a somewhat good, somewhat bizarre Nationals-Redskins theory and there is a TON of QB drama, then this is the episode for you.
