The Washington Wrap

Okay... Let's do this, Redskins nation.

This raw post-game edition of the Redskins Capital Connection podcast is hosted by your tired, frustrated, and grumpy hosts Chad Ryan and Mark Phillips, as well as guest Matthew Paras (Washington Times)... and boy oh boy did the Redskins crap the bed on Monday Night Football.

AGAIN.

And if you didn't watch the game, the scoreline could trick you into thinking that this was a competitive game of football.

Let's be clear. It wasn't.

The Redskins fell into a 28-0 hole in the first half, and the entire second half of the game was basically garbage time.

And on a night that saw the coaching staff get embarrassed, the players get their asses kicked, and the fans get emotionally abused, you'd think that at least something as simple as honoring a past player like London Fletcher at half-time would be a respite from the shit-show? WELL YOU'RE WRONG, BECAUSE THE REDSKINS MIS-SPELLED HIS NAME ON THE FEDEX FIELD BIG SCREENS.

On this episode of the Redskins Capital Connection podcast, hosts Chad Ryan and Mark Phillips are joined by good friend Mark Bullock (The Athletic DC). 

Together, they cast their eyes forward to Monday Night Football at FedEx Field where the Chicago Bears are coming in to town.

The Redskins famously haven't been intimidating under the bright lights of Prime Time, and are 2-15 on Monday Night Football since 2008. Couple that with the fact that the Redskins are 0-2 to start the season, and you can understand why on our RCC podcast from Sunday night after the Dallas game they called this Week 3 action a 'sliding door moment' for Jay Gruden.

What are the keys to victory against Chicago? How do the Redskins nullify Khalil Mack? And is it possible at this point to solve the penalties issue that has plagued this team? 

All of that and more on another episode of Redskins Capital Connection.

Welcome to the post-game edition of Redskins Capital Connection that we like to call RCC RAW, because we're recording this while the emotions are still high and the analysis is still loose. 

The Cowboys came to town and made FedEx Field look like a Dallas home game once again, as the Washington Redskins went down 31-21 which puts them at 0 and 2 in 2019, with both losses coming against NFC East Division rivals. To put it bluntly, the Redskins are in deep doo-doo to start the season.

Hosts Chad Ryan and Mark Phillips put down the drinks and snacks on football Sunday afternoon and share the three areas that ended up deciding today's game. We then look ahead briefly at why next week's Monday night game against the Chicago Bears is going to be a 'sliding doors' moment for Jay Gruden.

Take a listen Redskins fans!

On this week's episode of the Redskins Capital Connection, hosts Chad Ryan and Mark Phillips recap week one of the NFL season where the Washington Redskins fell to the Philadelphia Eagles, 32-27 at Lincoln Financial Field, then Chad talks to Redskins rookie Linebacker Cole Holcomb about his first game, life in the NFL, Dallas week, and his dog Benji.

We'll also look ahead to this Sunday's home opener against the Dallas Cowboys.

And since it's Redskins season again, that means it's time for our famous 3-2-1 game MVP votes as well! Who earns the honors in week one? Tune in to find out!

On today's show we are talking about honest-to-god actual Redskins football!

The Washington Redskins open up their 2019 campaign by heading North-east up the I95 and playing against the Eagles in Philadelphia at 1pm on Sunday, and after a long, strange, and at times chaotic offseason, we here at Redskins Capital Connection simply can't wait to put it all behind us and watch the Redskins throw around the pigskin.

Joining hosts Chad Ryan and Mark Phillips is our good friend Redskins insider Lake Lewis (heavy.com) to help us preview the game and look at the story-lines to follow, and also talking about how the Vegas bookmakers have the Redskins as heavy underdogs vs Philadelphia, and whether or not that's realistic. 

This is our fifth year here at RCC, and we're thrilled to have you with us along for the ride again!

Thanks for listening, and support the show by telling your friends to listen too!
