Beltway Football

This is a neat little episode of Redskins Talk for those of you itching for content on the bye. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey briefly welcome you in before tossing to JP and Rich's chat with the Executive Director of the NFLPA DeMaurice Smith. Smith is about as sharp as a guest as Redskins Talk as ever had, and he's willing to answer questions on the roughing the passer calls that are plaguing the league, player safety as a whole and how the NFL views marijuana vs. painkillers. After that strong interview, the three hosts debate the Redskins' biggest surprise player and biggest disappointment player through three weeks of the season. Who makes the good list and who finds themselves on the not-so-good-list? If you like podcasts where Tandler gets screwed by traffic before an interview he set up and the guys do their best to treat the bye like the midway point of the season even though it's certainly not, this is the episode for you. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Hope you're ready for four 1-on-1 interviews with four happy guys. JP Finlay is one-half of each chat, while Jay Gruden, Jonathan Allen, Jamison Crowder and Paul Richardson make up the other side of them. First up is the head coach, who tells JP in their weekly, exclusive sit-down the things he still wants the Redskins to address and his most proud moment from the Green Bay W. After that is Richardson, who shares his funny reaction to that Clay Matthews penalty. Then Allen, who explains how the team wanted to attack Aaron Rodgers, and finally Crowder, who talks about the more aggressive offensive approach in Week 3. If you like podcasts where Gruden gets on JP for asking a certain question and Richardson has a good one-liner about how his mom being in town led to his touchdown, then this is the episode for you.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey are coming at you from the inside of a victorious FedEx Field to bring you a full recap of all that occurred in Landover in Week 3. The guys break down ALL of the very positive things that happened in the 'Skins victory, from Adrian Peterson turning in a classic performance to the deep passing game beginning to click to many, many more topics. The Game Balls and Goats section is, obviously, heavy on Game Balls, so soak all of that in. They also give plenty of thanks to all that made the Podcast Tailgate such a blast, even in the awful weather. The momentum is real, folks. If you like podcasts where JP botches the artist behind his apparent favorite song and Tandler's love for LL Bean is summed up perfectly, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From the chillier than usual picnic tables, JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Pete Hailey and John Keim bring you this edition of Redskins Talk, and there's a lot of good stuff going on. In this installment, you'll get plenty of hardcore football topics, including: Whether or not the guys think Maurice Harris will debut Sunday, everyone's over/unders regarding Alex Smith, Adrian Peterson and Josh Doctson and the debut of a Tandler-created segment where the hosts try to envision how Sunday's game will unfold. You'll also get a good amount of shtick, from Tandler doing a weird coin-toss prediction bit to Pete attempting plenty of zings and missing with most of them. If you like podcasts where JP and John share a really touching moment and there's lots of minivan discussion, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey are your hosts for this Redskins Talk, with JP and Pete hanging in the studio and Tandler out in Ashburn...at the picnic table...by himself. After the necessary reminders about this week's Podcast Tailgate (ORANGE LOT, A30, 10:30 a.m.), Tandler gives his update following Thursday's practice, where he saw a slightly more positive picture regarding the team's injuries. Next, the guys set their Week 3 over/unders, which includes a fantastic segment where they read ALL of the suggestions they got from listeners. Some were solid but most were terrible. The second half of the action goes to JP's 1-on-1 with Josh Norman, where the corner opens up about everything from Aaron Rodgers to his cane to his fearless tackling. If you like podcasts where many people demonstrate they have NO idea how over/unders work and Tandler is just sending selfies out like it's nothin', then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey were in Ashburn for Wednesday's practice and then got together to give you this lovely pod. Unfortunately, most of it has to do with injuries, as Paul Richardson is now apparently dealing with an additional issue while Shawn Lauvao is likely to miss some time as well. Are the Redskins already hanging by a thread? The guys also explain how much to expect from the two new wideouts and then debate whether the Packers game is a full on must-win. If you like podcasts where Tandler and JP call each other lame and all four hosts have trouble remembering what a traffic light looks like, this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Tuesday was supposed to be an off day, but with all these receiver moves happening, JP Finlay decided to corral Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey to break down what's going on at that position. After promoting this Sunday's second-ever Redskins Talk Podcast Tailgate at FedEx Field, the guys give their reactions to the signings of Michael Floyd and Breshad Perriman. Should they have pursued Dez Bryant or Josh Gordon instead? One host believes Gordon should've been the target. Other side discussions include what parts of this roster all this WR shuffling will affect most and the level of concern about this part of the offense just two weeks in. If you like podcasts were Pete uses the word "onomatopoeia" correctly and Mitch gets a little too much enjoyment from almost running a cohost over earlier in the day, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's time to pick up the pieces from the loss to the Colts. To open the pod, you'll hear JP Finlay go 1-on-1 with Jay Gruden, as the head coach answers tough questions about his team's preparation, offensive struggles and areas that must be improved. Then, you'll get to listen to JP's full postgame interviews with DJ Swearinger and Chase Roullier, two guys who played on units that had major issues against Indy. Swearinger wasn't happy with the communication, while Roullier had a lot to say on the offensive line's shortcomings.

Does anyone else think Week 1 feels like it was four years ago? The difference between last week's pod from Arizona and this one is stark, as JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler do their best to process the Redskins' horrific home-opening loss to the Colts. From Washington's long list of failures on offense to the lack of juice at the stadium, there's a lot to talk about and not much of it is fun. It's important stuff, though, so you need to listen. It'll be therapeutic. If you like podcasts where one of JP's notes is just "WTF?" and the hosts are just as fired up as you are, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This podcast has a lot of parts and all of them are good. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey open things up by picking sides on over/unders for Week 2. Who lands where when it comes to AP rushing yards and Alex Smith passing yards? After that, they toss to an interview with Andrew Walker of Colts.com, a knowledgeable guy who gives you an in-depth scouting report of Washington's Week 2 opponent. Listen as Walker tells you what to expect from Andrew Luck and talks up a young lineman who'll be facing the 'Skins' strong interior defenders, among many other useful things. And finally, the pod closes with a bunch of people taste-testing Devils Backbone's two new Redskins beers, because it's Friday so why wouldn't we drink? If you like podcasts where a big-time Redskins player makes a surprise appearance and Tandler can't stop chugging brews, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Thursday pod ended up happening, folks. It's just JP Finlay and Rich Tandler at the wheel for this one, and they braved the rainy elements to bring you the episode. First, JP opens things up by telling fans why they should remain calm about the pass rush, which didn't produce a lot in Week 1. Then, the two hosts set their weekly over/unders for Alex Smith's pass yards, Adrian Peterson's rush yards and an interesting fan submission from one of our ambassadors. After that, they toss to JP's sit-down talk with Chris Thompson, where the talented RB opens up about rehabbing from his season-ending injury and what it's like playing next to a future Hall of Famer. If you like podcasts where things are extra organized and there's no fighting over mics for once, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Full squad, full pod today as JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler, Pete "Weirdly Sad" Hailey and Ajay "Trunk Boy" Atayee were all out in Ashburn on Wednesday and are all a part of this Redskins Talk chapter. The guys give you the latest injury updates, starting with Cam Sims and Trey Quinn, before talking about the return of Brian Quick. They also discuss the elevation of pod favorite Kenny Ladler to the active roster. Will he play in Week 2? Next up is some important housekeeping on things such as the Survivor Pool and the Tailgate Party (Week 3 Packers game, BE THERE). Anddddddddd that's where things take a turn. The rest of the action starts out as a segment where everyone grades the photos our ambassadors have submitted to the @RedskinsTalkPod Instagram page, but that segment quickly devolves into Tandler saying the same rating over and over again and Mitch getting weirdly introspective about this weekend's weather. Also, Pete is in a weird mood the entire time. If you like podcasts where Tandler demonstrates he barely knows what Instagram is and the guys try to dance around an awkward situation involving a dog, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This Monday podcast is home to three very cool interviews between JP Finlay and some big-time Redskins names. To open, JP sits down with Jay Gruden for Gruden's first exclusive Redskins Talk 1-on-1, and the two cover a lot. You'll hear the head coach give his main takeaway 24 hours removed from the crucial season-opening victory, his thoughts on Chris Thompson's spectacular return and what he liked about his new QB's start. Then comes JP's postgame chats from Arizona with Quinton Dunbar and Morgan Moses. In those, you'll get Dunbar's take on his breakout effort and Moses' breakdown of what it's like to play in the same offense as Adrian Peterson. If you like podcasts where Gruden gives out a very, very plain nickname for his running back tandem and you get to keep enjoying Week 1's fun result, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

"Your Washington Redskins are 1-0," JP Finlay says at the start of this pod. How good does that feel, listeners? Finlay is joined in this episode by Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler in what is a very fun breakdown of the team's Week 1 victory over the Cardinals. The guys run through it all — from Alex Smith to Adrian Peterson and even Tress Way — from a room deep inside of State Farm Stadium. They also review JP and Rich's over/unders competition, which ended in a VERY interesting and wacky way. After that, they transition into their Game Balls and Goats segment, which is HEAVY on game balls. And finally, there's some talk about shaving habits, because every installment needs a little bit of shtick. If you like podcasts where the word "dominant" is thrown around constantly and Mitch is ESPECIALLY giddy about various things, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is quite a podcast, folks. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler are joined by John Keim, Brian McNally and Michael Phillips, and they're all heading to the Grand Canyon the Saturday before the season opener. So why wouldn't they record a pod during the trip? The six guys run through a bunch of season-long over/unders, from things like Adrian Peterson TDs to Alex Smith yards, and pick sides. They also provide plenty of updates on Phillips' aggressive driving. If you like podcasts that involve tons of cheap zings but also plenty of 'Skins conversation, then this is the episode for you.

After doing this type of podcast during draft season, the MegaPod format is back. But this time, JP collected predictions from a TON of different voices on how Washington will fare in 2018. From Barstool guys to a Politico writer, from 106.7 The Fan personalities to other NBC Sports Washington folks, and a bunch of other analysts, you'll hear everyone's take on what Jay Gruden's squad is going to do this year. Plus, if you stick around, you'll hear a majormajorMAJOR announcement from our guy JP.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, and Mitch Tischler are again in car talking 'Skins, which means it's again time for you to listen to them talking 'Skins. After informing listeners that the Redskins Talk podcast survivor pool is LIVE (and you should join it on NFL.com) JP makes ANOTHER big podcast announcement. Mitch then reintroduces the over/unders for Week 1 and JP and Tandler make their picks. Finally, the guys toss to JP's 1 on 1 with DJ Swearinger, who has some intriguing things to say about the secondary and the amount the team played in the preseason. If you like podcasts where Tandler does a projection of the freakin' inactive list and Mitch reveals that someone made a mess in his car during yesterday's pod, this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Ajay Atayee (who's not in the trunk this time) hopped into Mitch's car for this very fun edition of Redskins Talk. The guys open things up by telling you some GREAT injury news about two very crucial Redskins players before eventually transitioning into one mysterious injury storyline that no one really gets as of now. After that, they move into setting their first three over/unders of the season, a tradition that new listeners will enjoy and old listeners will recognize. Then a special treat arrives in the form of a long Preston Smith interview (18:01), where the pass rusher and JP look ahead to the 2018 season, talk about Smith owning Sam Bradford and kick around Tandler possibly being his publicist. If you like podcasts where JP complains a TON about things such as the AC in Mitch's car as well as a beer-related issue (28:50) (which eventually turns into everyone complaining about the beer-related issue), then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey piled into the Mobile Podcast Studio for this podcast, most of which is spent breaking down the team's decision to get rid of Anthony Lanier and add Caleb Brantley.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Pete Hailey and John Keim sat in the hot sun for this installment of Redskins Talk so you better listen to every second of it. The main objective of this episode is to react to the team's 53-man roster as its currently constructed (it certainly could change, by the way). Who were the most surprising cuts and why were those decisions made? You'll get plenty of insight into those questions. The four hosts also look forward, as they agree on the position group they're most concerned about and talk about a few guys such as Josh Doctson who need to really step up starting Week 1. For the shtick crowd, you'll enjoy the part where Pete drinks Tandler's water and John's usual needling of Rich. If you like podcasts where Tandler puts on baller shades and transforms into a badass and JP presents a Junior Galette conspiracy theory, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

From an "undisclosed location" in M&T Bank Stadium, JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler are here to wrap up the preseason. The three hosts spend much of the pod giving their final projections for the tight races at running back, receiver and linebacker. Questions they pose include whether Samaje Perine's fumble vs. the Ravens cost him a spot on the team and how Maurice Harris' murky health situation is affecting the depth chart on the outside. They also run through their game balls and goats segment, shouting out Rob Kelley and calling out the 'Skins' tackling. And finally, you'll hear JP's 1-on-1s with Trey Quinn and Pete Robertson, both of which are very interesting. If you like podcasts where Tandler and JP sing some strange old songs and Quinn goes really in-depth on his celebration habits, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey piled into the mobile podcast studio to enjoy its glorious AC and bring you quality Redskins insight. Things kick off with the guys reminding listeners and fans a critical thing about the fourth preseason game that you need to remember. They then run through the roster and try to determine just how many jobs are still up for grabs. Eventually, JP tosses to two interviews; one with Troy Apke and another with Jerod Fernandez. How is Apke planning on bouncing back from a rough Denver game and what's it like for Fernandez as he tries to scratch and claw his way onto the 53? Finally, the pod wraps with JP and Rich offering up some incentive to those of you who haven't followed @RedskinsTalkPod on Instagram yet. If you like podcasts where the wacky "Hi Tandler" bit continues and Pete botches the year Tandler graduated from high school, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler bring you this pod from the interview room at Redskins Park and start off by looking at the injuries that Colt McCoy, Zach Brown, Josh Norman, Chris Thompson and Jordan Reed are dealing with. Are any of them a big deal? They then move into a discussion on a surprise guy who *might* steal a spot on the roster and become a really awesome storyline if so. After, JP tosses to an interview with Warren Sharp, an analyst who is mega-intelligent about football (13:44). Be sure to listen as Sharp breaks down why 'Skins fans should maybe chill out when it comes to the Adrian Peterson excitement. And finally, JP goes 1-on-1 with Adonis Alexander (23:33) and asks the rookie corner to grade his debut and where he likes to play in the secondary.

They then shift into an important segment (22:50), as they recognize all of the new podcast ambassadors. There are 80-plus names to read, so get comfy.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler recorded this postgame podcast from the sidelines of FedEx Field, so please excuse the constant lawn-mowing/grass-blowing sounds in the background. The opening section of the episode is heavy on Adrian Peterson, who was the lone bright spot in an otherwise dreadful performance by the 'Skins. Is it time to adjust expectations for No. 26 already? After the Peterson praise, the hosts move on to the rest of Washington's roster and look at everything from Alex Smith's lackluster effort to Troy Apke's night to forget. If you like podcasts where two out of three Redskins Talkers aren't wearing shoes and JP gives out half game-balls in an effort to find something to celebrate, then this is the episode for you.

From the picnic table in Ashburn, the four go through what they (briefly) saw from him on the field and also run through all that was said about the RB at the podium. From Jay Gruden calling him a "physical freak" to Doug Williams' thoughts on the former MVP to AP saying he intends to be the starter, there's a lot to parse through.

JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Pete Hailey and pod favorite John Keim got together at the picnic table in Ashburn for this all-encompassing and strong episode of Redskins Talk. The first of many topics is the team's messy running back situation, with the hosts covering all of the free agent visits that are being reported and whether or not fans should expect a guy like Adrian Peterson to actually sign. Next is a conversation on Jamison Crowder and Josh Harvey-Clemons, two guys who have missed a decent chunk of practice time this offseason and who are slated to play vital roles in 2018. You'll also be treated to a talk about how important a Week 1 win is as well as an all-over installment of "One Thing." Finally, things wrap with JP presenting a Pete theory that is immediately proven correct and the Redskins Talkers putting a percentage on the 'Skins' chances to win a playoff game.

For the FIRST time in 2018, JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler recorded a post-victory podcast (yeah, it's preseason, but don't be so technical) and it's ready for you to enjoy. And, even though a 15-13 exhibition game sounds very boring, this episode is anything but. The receivers dominate the early portion of this recap, as the hosts wonder if Trey Quinn is at fault for his failed end zone connection with Alex Smith and also evaluate whether Cam Sims is primed to overtake Brian Quick. Eventually, though, as he usually does, Mitch steers things toward the BIG men and gushes over Daron Payne, Jonathan Allen and the rest of the 'Skins' defensive line. In fact, he even makes a bold proclamation about that specific unit. In the Game Balls and Goats segment, JP, Rich and Mitch hype up Kapri Bibbs (another riser) but don't give as much love to the NYJ LB who blasted Colt McCoy. Plus, stick around for the end as JP exclusively interviews both Sims & Bibbs postgame. If you like podcasts where JP and Tandler find a way to argue about whether there's an MRI machine at FedEx Field and Tandler also gets super grumpy about Dustin Hopkins receiving a game ball, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's time for the guys to get the F out of Richmond. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are fired up to give you one last Redskins Talk to close out camp. The start of the episode is devoted to DJ Swearinger going after Terrelle Pryor, which was quite a scene. The hosts also trade in their "One Thing" segment for "One Player," and each pick their biggest standout from the action in Richmond. Then you have a real special treat, as JP goes 1-on-1 with Jim Tomsula and asks the defensive line coach all about his young, talented unit. If you like podcasts where Tomsula also heaps praise on Jordan Reed and everyone is just delirious from working a million straight days at camp, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Redskins Talk crew witnessed the fights at 'Skins camp and are here to tell you all about them. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey congregated in Pete's hotel room for this edition of the podcast and spend a good chunk of it breaking down the Washington-New York brawls in Richmond. How'd it happen, who was involved and will there be more? Everyone wants to hear about the scrap, so you'll hear plenty about the scrap. Eventually, after recapping the melee, they do move on to analyze the football portion of the joint session. There's more Derrius Guice conversation — including making a list about which players would hurt the team more with a season-ending injury — as well as a debate about whether Rob Kelley will reach 1,000 yards in 2018. And finally, you'll hear Kelley talk to JP, as the running back breaks down his role in the offense and what he thought about the fight.

Everyone is back in the tent for this podcast, with JP Finlay leading the way and Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey riding along with him. In the episode, the guys discuss what looks like another season-ending injury to a skill player and how that affects the team's fortunes before diving deep into a Derrius Guice conversation. They recap how players like Chris Thompson and Rob Kelley took the news and, later, try to convince (by yelling a lot) Pete that the running back situation will still be productive without him. You'll also hear JP's sit-down interview with safety DJ Swearinger, as the defensive leader talks about his relationship with Montae Nicholson and how people are sleeping on the 'Skins.

First, they explain how we got here, with JP, Rich and Mitch sharing various nuggets they picked up while at the game in New England that relate to Guice. Then, the hosts look at what the team could do to fill Guice's spot, whether that be a trade or a free agency signing. Do they expect them to make an aggressive move or stand pat? It's a lot of information in a short amount of time, and it absolutely a must-listen for 'Skins fans trying to deal with the news.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this particular bonus pod, you'll hear JP Finlay's postgame interviews with three players following the Redskins' preseason game in New England. Those guys are Tim Settle, Maurice Harris, and Colt McCoy, who just so happened to be three of the most productive guys in the exhibition contest. Be sure to listen to what those three 'Skins had to say about their performances vs. the Pats. But before all that, you'll get to relive all of the best action from Week 1 featuring calls from the most notable plays that took place in Foxboro. If you like podcasts that are the perfect complement to Redskins Talk's typical postgame product, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Here is your first postgame recap podcast of 2018, courtesy of JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Mitch Tischler, who are coming at you from New England. The three hosts open the pod by reviewing the injuries that happened in the exhibition opener and explaining how each player looked and sounded in the postgame locker room afterward. After that, they hold their first Game Balls and Goats segment of the season, in which they give props to players who stood out and also make not of guys who didn't. In that portion of the action, you'll hear insight on everyone from Colt McCoy to Samaje Perine and even Kyle Kalis, because Redskins Talk gives insight on EVERYONE. If you like podcasts where Rich uses the phrase "ocean of sloppiness" and JP is mature enough to label one of his favorites a preseason Week 1 goat, then this is the episode for you. Also, go wish our guy Mitch a Happy Birthday on Twitter, because it's his birthday and we want it to be happy.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Instead of recapping Tuesday's lighter practice, JP Finlay came up with a different idea to execute along with Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey: a roster projection episode. So, you'll hear the guys go through the offense, defense and special teams (that's Pete's specialty) and pick the 53 players who will make the Redskins going into Week 1. Of course, things will change — injuries will happen and no one's stock has risen or dropped in preseason games yet. But this is their projection based on RIGHT NOW. Who'll be the final receiver? Who'll be the final running back? What's the number of linemen they'll keep on both sides? And are there any spots where they'll have to go heavy or light? All of that and more is discussed, so enjoy it. If you like podcasts where things are actually somewhat organized and Mitch gets uncomfortable with the amount of times he agrees with Pete, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A surprise rain storm tried to throw off Redskins Talk, but thanks to some quick thinking by Mitch Tischler, he, JP Finlay, Rich Tandler and Pete Hailey found a backup room to record this chapter of the pod. Because of that, though, this is a bit of an accelerated episode. Things open up with the guys taking a look at two of the team's cornerstones in Jordan Reed and Trent Williams. How are each looking and should they play vs. New England in the preseason opener? Next, each host gives their "one thing," which include thoughts on Geron Christian and this insane Richmond heat. After that, they toss to JP's 1-on-1 with Vernon Davis, who talks about his ridiculous body fat stats, how he checks up on Jordan Reed often and what he thought when he first heard he was reuniting with Alex Smith. And after that, we're trying something new. Mitch has been shooting Mic'd Up segments at camp, so once Davis wraps up, you'll get a chance to hear one featuring Preston Smith. The full video is available on nbcsportswashington.com, but let us know how you like hearing it at the end of Redskins Talk, too. If you like podcasts where there's minimal shtick (except for the part about Tandler's iPad overheating again) then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

There is a LOT going on in this podcast, so let's divide it into three parts. The first part is the usual recap of practice, as JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey look at all that happened on Sunday in Richmond. How many RBs will the team keep, what's going on with Josh Doctson and how is Jeremy Sprinkle developing? Those football topics and more are covered, and then the hosts take some time to bask in the glory of yet another successful Podcast Party. Thank you all for coming out and hanging with us, it was a BLAST. The second part of the episode is JP's 1-on-1 with Derrius Guice, in which JP asks the rookie RB how he's adjusting to life as a pro, whether he feels he must start in Week 1 and what his message to the fans would be. And finally, the third part is what we're calling the Lost/Forgotten Pod, which was recorded after Saturday's Fan Appreciation Day practice but was left by Pete at the facility, meaning it couldn't get posted until now. In that portion of things, you'll hear about a big day from Rob Kelley and a less-than-stellar day from Alex Smith. If you like podcasts where Mitch describes a massive hit by Ryan Anderson and a bunch of you get shoutouts, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Redskins are taking an off day but the Redskins Talk crew is too addicted to podcasting to do so as well. So that means it's BONUS PODCAST O'CLOCK. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey recorded this one from Pete's hotel room and had some fun with it. First, because of the listeners' effort, the guys crossed the 350-review mark, meaning they have to wear bolos to August 4th's Podcast Party. So, they open one up live on the pod and celebrate the accomplishment. Then, it's football time. Before the episode, the hosts asked fans to submit questions then they each chose one to read on air. Rich's deals with trying to find a trade-able Redskin, Pete talks about Mo Harris and Anthony Lanier, Mitch has an interesting one regarding two linebackers and JP evaluates the best road game on the schedule. Lastly, JP and Co. hype up the Podcast Party, which'll be at the Matchbox in Short Pump (YOU SHOULD COME). If you like podcasts where Tandler gets riled up about the difference between a raffle and a random drawing and the giveaways for the party are revealed, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

It's a special day on Redskins Talk, because our bud Jackson brought the second-ever Redskins Talk-themed sign to training camp. So, Jackson got to join JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey for this episode of the podcast. Practice was a bit lighter than usual today, with the backups getting more reps than the starters. Therefore, the hosts bounce around (more than they normally do, at least) and cover all sorts of things. Included: A chat about Trey Quinn's not-so-strong performance, more Maurice Harris hype, a nugget from JP on a sneaky cornerback, a note about Brian Quick on special teams and the usual "one thing" segment, which features a look at Josh Norman and Ryan Anderson. You'll also hear a cameo by NBC Sports Washington's Julie Donaldson and a story about JP almost getting destroyed by Mitch. And finally, today's interview is held with Jordan Reed, and JP asks the tight end just how much work he puts into his conditioning and about his growing bond with Alex Smith. If you like podcasts where Tandler's Millennial Meter starts going off and a hypothetical on what Mitch's first phone call from jail would be like is floated around, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

When DeAngelo Hall first walked into the Redskins Talk podcast tent, the plan was for the interview to run at the start of a regular pod. But Hall was so willing to talk and so interesting that we just had to make the conversation its own episode. The 'Skins legend, who officially retired in Richmond, offers up all types of amazing stories, from a recap of some of his scoop-and-scores to the time he said he was going to be Pro Bowl MVP and then, well, became Pro Bowl MVP. He also gets serious and explains why he's choosing to retire now. If you like podcasts where one of the best players for the franchise from the past decade takes the mic and just goes on unfiltered, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Coming at you from the famous tent in Richmond is another Redskins Talk episode with JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey. The first football topic covered in this one is Josh Doctson, who left at the end of practice with a shoulder injury. The extent of the injury hadn't been released at the time of the recording, but the guys still are able to describe how it happened and then look at how his potential absence could affect the wide receiver race as a whole. After, everyone gives their "one thing," which for Mitch was basically every single thing that makes him happy — a spotting of Ty Nsekhe at guard and a Kenny Landler interception, both of which happened right after each other. Tandler, meanwhile, looks at Paul Richardson's excellent day, while Pete gives his take on a rookie who has yet to show much promise. The hosts then toss to JP's 1-on-1 with Alex Smith, which is fully of juicy stuff, from how much he loves running the read-option to a really good question from JP about Kirk Cousins. If you like podcasts where Tandler hums the Rocky theme song and Smith gets really honest about a lot of topics, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

The Redskins returned to the practice field on July 31, so the Redskins Talk podcast has returned to recapping the sights and sounds from Richmond in this installment. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey get things started by quickly thanking the listeners for helping them set another record before kicking the football things off with a conversation about Ty Nsekhe's health and potential move to guard. Will Mitch ever get to see it happen? Following that, they briefly focus on the linebacker spot and wonder if Martrell Spaight's days are numbered in D.C. That is followed by a really long chat about the receivers, as the four try to figure out who the heck is going to make the team behind the three top targets. Pete, for one, believes Trey Quinn is already safe, a claim that's met by plenty of pushback (like always) by the others. JP, for example, wants to see Quinn make a difference on special teams before he feels good about placing him on the final 53 (or 54, since it's JP). Finally, as usual, they go around to speak about their "one thing" from the session before tossing to JP's interview with Jonathan Allen. In that back-and-forth, Allen explains how his defense can become the "badasses" he wants them to be and scouts Daron Payne, too. If you like podcasts where JP announces when the season's tailgate party will be and Allen goes in on how much he loves freeing up others to make plays, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

BONUS PODCAST TIME. We said we'd give you a new pod every day of practice, but even on an off day, we're giving you more content. Special guests Craig Hoffman of 106.7 The Fan and Kareem Copeland of the Washington Post join JP Finlay for this one, which opens up with two 1-on-1 interviews. First up is Pete's talk with Trey Quinn, where the two get super nerdy and go all in on Fortnite. How long did it take Trey to become the Fortnite beast that he is and does he play with other 'Skins teammates? He's got some strong one-liners on those questions and more. Then, Tandler catches up with Montae Nicholson, as the second-year safety lets Tandler in on how he's planning to avoid injuries and why keeping an underdog mentality is so crucial to him. After those segments, JP, Craig and Kareem discuss how nicely Alex Smith and Jamison Crowder's connection is developing and what to expect from Crowder in 2018. They also examine the team's improved depth and their plans for the off day. If you like podcasts where JP's ankle randomly pops yet again and Brandon Scherff's greatness is brought up, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Now THAT was a good session of football. JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey found Sunday's practice in Richmond to be the best one of training camp thus far and they are here to talk about it. This installment kicks off with praise for the offense, especially Alex Smith, who was really, really dialed in. You'll also hear conversations about both Josh Harvey Clemons and Byron Marshall, two players who are opening eyes in Richmond. JP has an interesting theory about JHC in particular, so make sure to listen to that. The guys then give their daily takeaway, which includes Rich bringing up Mo Harris (again) and Mitch talking up Derrius Guice's hunger for learning. Smaller but still important topics mentioned as well are Vernon Davis' lack of body fat and Kenny Ladler's performance, and the action wraps with JP interviewing Ryan Kerrigan. Kerrigan's got good opinions on not being ranked on the NFL's Top 100 list, Greg Manusky's scooter and his own up-and-down golf game. If you like podcasts where Mitch calls out JP for being a bad guy and Kerrigan picks one word to describe teammates like Preston Smith and Josh Norman, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

A whopping studio audience of three people joined JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey for this edition of Redskins Talk from Richmond, which comes to you after the first padded practice of 2018's camp. The first topic addressed is a tough one, as the guys break down Daron Payne's injury and discuss how big of a deal it is for him to miss a few weeks because of it. Then, they review Josh Doctson's media session, including him talking about his health following his MRI and one really interesting difference he sees between Alex Smith and Kirk Cousins. That leads nicely into JP's chat with Chris Thompson, another guy who is noticing how the team's new QB operates compared to the team's old one. Be sure to pay attention to those really cool details from Thompson, as well as his one word to describe Derrius Guice. Once the Thompson interview wraps, each host gives his daily takeaway, which includes notes on Robert Davis vs. Maurice Harris and a nice performance by Fabian Moreau. And finally, they break down a strange night they had in the city, which featured Pete getting owned by a stingy karaoke operator. If you like podcasts where you get incredible insight into how Smith acts as a leader and a passer and Pete botches the artist of Tandler's all-time favorite song, then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

This is a very, very special edition of Redskins Talk, because everyone FINALLY has their own microphone. It only took 250+ episodes for that to happen, which is super efficient. Regardless, JP Finlay, Rich Tandler, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey are all able to chime in on things now, and there was plenty to talk about after the team's second day of practice in Richmond. First, there's the injury updates: How did Zach Brown look and what's up with Daron Payne and Ryan Anderson? Then, the guys run a quick interview featuring our guy Nick, who made history today by bringing the first ever Redskins Talk-themed sign to training camp. After that, a Phil Taylor/Ziggy Hood discussion starts up, with JP wondering whether Taylor could make the squad over Hood. Eventually, JP provides another piece to the puzzle of his insane shoeless breakfast story from Day 2, everyone provides a key takeaway from the on-field action and also briefly touch on Colt McCoy's new deal. This chapter then wraps up with JP's 1-on-1 interview with Paul Richardson, where the wideout explains why having a No. 1 target isn't necessary and delves deeper into plenty of other topics. If you like podcasts where the mic-stealing is non-existent and Richardson explains why Jay Gruden is "special," then this is the episode for you.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
