Well, it's over.

The Washington Redskins 2016 campaign has come to an unceremonious end, with the team finishing 8-7-1 and on the outside of the playoffs, looking forlornly in. 

It's incredibly hard to summarise just what happened this year for the Redskins, so to help us take stock of the past 5 and a half months of football, hosts Chad and Mark are joined by fellow Redskins Capital Connection team members Anthony Raposa, Robert Henson, Robbie Duncan and Alex Espinoza

As a panel, the team talks about everything ranging from Kirk Cousins and his future, what happens if Joe Barry stays and Sean McVay leaves, who our picks are for the Redskins offensive and defensive players of the year, and more! 

It's an absolutely mammoth episode wrapping up the season that probably raised more questions than it answered for the Redskins brass, as we now head into that long and dark part of the year we call "Waiting for Redskins Season".

For the Washington Redskins 2016 hopes and dreams, it all comes down to this; a win in week 17 versus the New York Giants, and the Redskins will almost certainly find themselves in the playoffs. 

Together, your hosts Chad and Mark cast our eyes forward to this pivotal game and discuss the big questions. Will the Giants rest their starters given that they are locked into 5th seed? What do the Redskins need to do to win this game? Who will the Redskins likely opponents be if they do make the playoffs? And finally, the question that seems to be generating quite a lot of debate; do the Redskins deserve to make playoffs?

All that and more in what may be, but hopefully won't be, the last Redskins Capital Connection of this 2016 Washington Redskins season!

The On the Warpath crew is back once again, and once again hosts Anthony Raposa and Robert Henson are joined by Robbie Duncan to help them break down all this week's big Redskins questions!

With Josh Norman facing his old team for the first time, and the Redskins in a position to mathematically eliminate the Panthers from the 2016 playoffs this week, will Josh get his revenge? Or will a struggling Redskins defense fail to contain Cam Newton, despite his apparent form slump? And even if the Redskins do win this week, have they left it too little and too late for a genuine playoff run? 

All that and more on another jam-packed edition of On the Warpath!

Week 13 w/ Brian McNally

It feels like an era has passed since the Redskins lost to the Cowboys on Thanksgiving - almost a full week ago! And yet, that was just 'last round', and it's back to business this week as Washington travels to Arizona.   

There is no shortage of intrigue surrounding this game, including injury clouds over key players for both sides, the playoff hunt, and the fact that this is very much a 'last stand' game for the Cardinals. So with all that in mind, hosts Chad and Mark dial up our good friend and Redskins insider Brian McNally (106.7 The Fan/CBS Local Washington) to help us break it all down. 

As always, we dive head first in to the big questions, and we hope you enjoy it!

Week 12 w/ Dan Steinberg

This Washington Redskins team is officially on fire! A huge prime-time win against the Green Bay Packers has everyone around the Redskins feeling frisky and feeling good. Just ask Kirk Cousins! 

There's so much happening with Cousins now that we decided to bring in the big guns this week to help us unpack his past, present, and future with the team. So hosts Chad and Mark called up their good friend Dan Steinberg from the Washington Post and the founder of the world famous DC Sports Bog to help us really analyze it. 

Will Kirk Cousins play force the Redskins hand come contract time? Could McCloughan convince fans that spending big money on a Quarterback isn't necessary? What does Cousins have to do for the rest of 2016 to cement that massive contract offer? All those questions and more this week!

On the Warpath - Episode 10

Welcome to another edition of On the Warpath - the Redskins debate show where no holds are barred and the big questions get asked.

This week, your hosts Anthony Raposa and Robert Henson are joined by rising star Manny Benton, and together they dive headfirst in to the biggest question looming over Redskins park; can the Redskins survive without Trent Williams, especially against a nasty Vikings defense? 

Once they solve that crisis, they take a more general look at the Vikings this week, because it has all the markings of a potential trap game for Washington. 

And lastly, as we're at the midway point of the season, together they make their picks for which players will break out in the second half of the season. (Spoiler alert; it's not Trent Williams).

Week 10 - Midseason Review w/ Michael Phillips

With the Redskins coming out of a bye week, and heading into their final 8 games for the season, what better time to take a moment to review the progress thus far. 

To help us out, hosts Chad and Mark are joined by our good buddy and Redskins insider Michael Phillips (Richmond Times-Dispatch). 

Starting from Kirk Cousins and working our way down through both sides of the ball, we discuss which units are working effectively and which units need to improve if the Redskins are going to stay in the playoff hunt. 

We then cast our eyes forward to Minnesota this week, and the run home behind them. It's a tough schedule from here on out for Washington; can they do enough to keep their heads above water?

Also we reveal the current leaderboard for the Redskins Capital Connection season MVP!

Week 09 w/ Mike Jones

After 8 games the Redskins go into the bye week with 4 wins, 3 losses... and a tie?! 

The question of whether ties should still exist in the NFL isn't the only one answered on the Redskins Capital Connection podcast this week, as hosts Chad and Mark dial up good friend of the show Mike Jones (The Washington Post) to expand on his comments from Wednesday regarding Kirk Cousins that set Redskins fans ablaze on social media.

We also cover the latest news and developments surrounding the Trent Williams suspension, as well as a quick look into the coaching to name just a few of the topics covered. 

This is not an episode you'll want to miss! Absolutely ridiculous levels of insider knowledge from around Redskins park, and it's all right here for you on the Redskins Capital Connection.

On the Warpath - Episode 07

After four consecutive victories, it's time for a critical analysis of what is behind the sudden uptick in success for these Washington Redskins. 

Your On the Warpath hosts Anthony Raposa (@AnthonyRaposa) and Robert Henson (@Mr_Henson51) dive head-first into that on this week's episode, asking questions such as 'Is the offense the reason for the Redskins success?', and 'has your opinion of Kirk Cousins changed throughout this season?'.

Week Seven w/ Will Blackmon

Winning feels great, doesn't it Redskins nation? And not only are the Redskins on a 4 game winning streak, they've also won their first three road games of a season for the first time since 1999! Just another sign of positive changes in Washington? Well, this week's game against the Detroit Lions will be a great barometer for that. 

To talk about the matchup versus the Lions, as well as the Redskins defense as a unit and, yes, birthdays, your hosts Chad and Mark dial up Redskins Safety Will Blackmon for a chat.

As always, Blackmon is hilarious and informative as we discuss some football Xs and Os, Matt Stafford, Michael Jackson, and the Redskins coaches to name just a few topics. 

We also break down the Philadelphia win and preview the Detroit game, and touch on all the other issues surrounding Redskins park this week!

After starting the season 0 and 2, the Redskins now find themselves above .500 after the first five games of the season for the first time since the 2011 season, sitting at 3-2. 

To understand where the improvements and adjustments that have led to a change in fortunes for the Redskins have come from, hosts Chad and Mark once again invite on friend of the show Mark Bullock (Washington Post & Bleacher Report) to break it all down. From personnel changes, coaching scheme adjustments, and improved play on the field, things have been trending upwards over the past three weeks. 

Together we also cast our eyes forward to this week's pivotal NFC East matchup versus the Philadelphia Eagles, and explain how a win this week can setup the rest of the season nicely.

On the Warpath - Episode 03

They say that when the going gets tough, the tough get going. That much certainly need to be true if the Washington Redskins are going to dig themselves out of the 0-2 hole they find themselves in and kick-start their season. 

This week, your On the Warpath hosts Anthony and Rob try and highlight some of the positives to take out of the first two weeks, including the strong play of Josh Norman and the impressive rookie campaign of Su'a Cravens, to name just a couple of examples. 

It's not all sunshine and rainbows though, as your hosts debate with each other about where the fault lies for the poor start to the season, and where Kirk Cousins should be at in this point of his NFL career.

Preseason September 4 - The 53 man roster

The toughest day of the year for any General Manager in the NFL is roster cut-down day, where the teams have to whittle their roster from 75 to 53. Talk to any player or coach, even superstar veterans, and they'll tell you that it's the worst part of the football calendar, and often entails watching many young players dreams of making it in the NFL end. 

On the flipside, it's also the time of year where fairytales come true; the undrafted free agent who works his way on to the squad through sheer will and determination gets rewarded with a roster spot. 

Hosts Chad and Mark bring you all the angles from the Redskins cut-day, as we look at who made it, who didn't, and what it means for the Redskins roster in its present state. To do this, they are once again joined by Brian McNally, the Redskins beat reporter for 106.7 The Fan. 

Also on the show, hear our exciting news about a new Redskins Capital Connection podcast starting very soon!

Training Camp Day 14 w/ Greg Toler & Deshaun Phillips

Day 14 of Redskins training camp -the final day before the players have a closed session tomorrow and then head home to Ashburn- saw the players come out of the locker rooms not in pads, but only in uniforms, meaning that it was a half speed/no contact day.

Hosts Chad and Mark brave the blistering hot temperatures to bring you all of the day’s action, before sitting down with both Greg Toler & Deshaun Phillips. We ask them about life in the secondary, before running them through the Redskins Capital Connection lightning round!

Training Camp Day 9 w/ Ricky Jean-Francois

Throughout the first week of Redskins training camp, it was the defense who had the edge over the offense. 

But today on day nine, Quarterback Kirk Cousins looked sharp and accurate as he had multiple successful drives either resulting in touchdowns or field-goals. 

Host Chad is really reaching down the depth chart today, as he ropes in third stringer Michael Phillips (from the Richmond Times-Dispatch) to co-host, as they recap all the action from Richmond. 
 
Later in the show we sit down with Defensive End Ricky Jean-Francois to talk about life in the trenches, the high expectations on the defense this year, and of course, we run him through the Redskins Capital Connection Lightning Round!

Training Camp Day 8, w/ Chris Thompson

Day eight of Redskins Training Camp saw the attention focused on the second and third units today, as the players head into an off day tomorrow. All in all, the first teams had another light day, which gives host Chad and substitute co-host Anthony a great opportunity to take stock and reflect on the first week of Training Camp.

Later in the show, we sit down with Running Back Chris Thompson, who is quietly having a superb camp as he continues to make big plays each and every day. We also have a quick chat to Cornerback Josh Norman, who has consistently been the last player off of the field after practices, and who by far spends the most time signing autographs for the fans. 

As we said, the Redskins have an off day on Saturday, so we'll be back on Sunday with all of your Training Camp coverage.

Join hosts Chad and Mark as they take you through a full recap of today's Redskins practice, and explain why Quarterback Kirk Cousins strong day may need to be qualified with an asterisk.

Training Camp Day 6, w/ Will Compton & Mason Foster

It was a light session for the Washington Redskins on day six of Training Camp, as the focus was on the Special Teams unit. For those players without any Special Teams responsibilities, their practice consisted of some basic conditioning and weights drills. 

That doesn't mean that there wasn't much to talk about today, however, and your hosts Chad and Mark give you the full recap of the day's training. 

Today we were also fortunate enough to sit down with Linebackers Will Compton and Mason Foster, better known to some as the 'bash brothers'. Anyone who is familiar with these two off of the field will know that they're always a blast to talk to, and sitting down with both of them at once effectively doubles that impact. We ask them what it's like to enter a Training Camp and preseason as the presumptive starters, what they're seeing from the improved secondary behind them since the arrival of Josh Norman, and after all of that, we run them through the Redskins Capital Connection lightning round. 

It's a fun one today, folks. We hope you enjoy it.
