Lynnell opens the show reacting to Washington’s 34-27 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, pointing to defensive struggles as the key reason for the defeat. While acknowledging the Commanders are still 2-2 after the first month of the season, Lynnell stresses that something has to change on defense. He challenges the unit to look itself in the mirror, ask if they’re living up to the standard set by their leader, and decide how they want to be talked about moving forward.

Lynnell is back with his Super Six-Pack, highlighting the six Commanders players who will have the spotlight on them in Sunday’s Week 4 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons. With no Jayden Daniels, John Bates, and Noah Brown, Lynnell breaks down who needs to step up and why these six names could define the outcome of the game.

Lynnell goes behind enemy lines with Josh Kendall of The Athletic, who covers the Atlanta Falcons, to break down Washington’s Week 4 opponent. They discuss why the Falcons’ offense has struggled early in the season, how the Commanders can slow down Atlanta’s attack, and just how much of a must-win game this is for the Falcons.

Lynnell and Anthony look ahead to Sunday’s matchup against the Falcons by predicting what the Monday morning headlines will say. Lynnell thinks the Commanders will win the trenches battle again, predicting: “Commanders finish September 3-1 after dominating the trenches for the 3rd time in 4 weeks” Anthony believes the defense will lead the way and prove to the rest of the NFL that the defense can win games, going with: “Defense Dominates, Commanders Are A Legit NFC Contender”

With Terry McLaurin sidelined, Lynnell asks the big question: Who needs to step up in his absence? Lynnell points to offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury as the one under the most pressure, while Anthony agrees that it won’t fall on just one player. Instead, he expects Kingsbury’s scheme to spread the ball around, with six, seven, or even eight different players potentially making an impact on Sunday.

Lynnell opens the show with his thoughts on Jayden Daniels being ruled out for a second straight week. While Daniels was eager to play, Lynnell is glad the Commanders are protecting their young quarterback from himself. He explains why there’s no rush to bring Daniels back, even questioning if we’ll see him next week, and makes the case for keeping him sidelined until he’s fully healthy.
