Remember that analyst who predicted a 2-14 Redskins season? Well, we got him on the phone to talk about that Jun 27, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey start this Redskins Talk by one last time telling you about Friday's Pod Party at Dudley's in Virginia. Then, they toss to JP and Mitch's lengthy and fun interview with Adam Rank, the NFL Network analyst who predicted Washington would go 2-14. In their discussion, Rank explains the rationale behind his prediction, and goes back and forth with the hosts about how likely it is. Rank's a hilarious guest and makes for a tremendous interview, so be sure to listen to it from start to finish.

Determining who or what should be responsible for deciding whether Dwayne Haskins starts right away Jun 26, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler, Pete Hailey and Redskins Talk's buddy John Keim squadded up for this new edition of your go-to Burgundy and Gold podcast. First, the hosts talk about Friday's Podcast Party, providing info on when the giveaways will happen. Then, they jump into football, and today revolves around Dwayne Haskins. The guys react to Doug Williams saying that Jay Gruden, the front office and Haskins' performance will all factor into whether the rookie wins the starting job and try to decide what should matter most in this situation. In their reactions, they bounce around to a ton of related topics, from whether the franchise will use what they learned from RG3's time here to how the staff should handle the preseason to how Washington's difficult opening schedule applies (or doesn't apply) to the choice. That discussion dominates this Redskins Talk, but near the end, you'll also get cold tub stories from Keim and a back-and-forth about who'll be the stars of training camp. If you like podcasts where Keim's phone cuts out at precisely the wrong time and Mitch can't resist being weird with his percentages, then this is the episode for you.

Trying to figure out how the 2019 Redskins will score and an interview with a Lions reporter about Marvin Jones Jun 24, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey have recovered from a weekend of Ls to give you another Redskins Talk. To begin, the three reveal one more ENORMOUS prize that'll be given away at Friday's Podcast Party, which is going to be fantastic and you should absolutely come to it (Dudley's at 7 pm). Then, JP poses an intriguing question - How the heck is this team going to score in 2019? The guys kick that around for a while before tossing to an interview with Dave Birkett, who covers the Lions for Detroit Free Press. Birkett is brought in to discuss the bizarre, random Twitter rumors about the Redskins trading for Marvin Jones. While those were started out of nowhere, JP and Mitch do ask Dave what Jones' situation is and how much he'd cost to acquire. They also compare how long each franchise has gone without playoff wins, which is a dark conversation. If you like podcasts where there's open honesty about Redskins Talk's disappointing weekend at the Emmys and Hanna the intern is brought on to answer questions about how excited she is about her first pod party, then this is the episode for you.

Is the analyst who picked the Redskins to go 2-14 totally wrong? Also, running through the options with Trent Williams Jun 18, 2019

Show notes

JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey convened inside of JP's car for this Redskins Talk to ensure they wouldn't have to bounce around to seven different locations, which allowed them to get nice and settled in for a lot of good chats. To begin, they react to NFL Network's Adam Rank's projection of the Redskins' 2019 season. He has them finishing at 2-14, which the hosts just don't agree with. So, what is the team's actual bottom and what would it take for them to fall there? That's what they go over. Once that wraps, they then cycle through JP's four scenarios that he sees the Redskins and Trent Williams could experience (21:36). All three hosts overwhelmingly agree on the most likely, but they also don't rule out a secondary one. Lastly, they explain why the Eagles' choice to close the public out of most of their training camp is a discouraging one. If you like podcasts where the beer sponsor for the upcoming party (JUNE 28TH, BE THERE) is announced and Mitch combines two real words into one fake one, then this is the episode for you.
