Surviving Snyder

We begin the episode with predictions for Sunday's game against the Chiefs. Dalton, Rick, and Brendan weigh in on how many points Heinicke and the offense will need to score to bail out the struggling defense. Then, Ben Standig, who covers WFT for The Athletic, is back to give an insider's take on all things scandalous - the Gruden emails, the DEA raid, the botched Sean Taylor tribute, and the smoke machine from hell. Ben shows his Survivor chops as he sticks around to do a deep dive into this week's episode.

So much badness on the part of the Washington Football Team as they fall to the New Orleans Saints 33-22. Taylor Heinicke shows his limitations and the secondary and linebackers are missing in action, especially on a horrific Hail Mary play. Special guest Sebastian Noel from Survivor: Ghost Island joins Dalton and Brendan to comb through the wreckage. Oh, and has anyone seen Jamin Davis?

A lot to get to in our latest episode, including DEA agents raiding the WFT facility, Brendan’s fantasy football struggles, injuries galore, and our predictions for the Washington vs. New Orleans game. Then, Survivor legend Eliza Orlins joins us to talk about the big issues with this season of the reality show. Eliza also shares some old Survivor war stories (including how appearing on Micronesia ruined her fantasy football season), reveals some juicy behind the scenes details of her time competing on the Amazing Race, and explains why she is a NY Giants fan even though she went to Sidwell Friends school in D.C.  Amazing stuff all-around.

Taylor Heinicke , Terry McLaurin, and the offense shines, while the defense embarrasses yet again. Meanwhile, special teams is kinda in between. We break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of the Washington Football Team’s 34-30 victory over the Atlanta Falcons, handing out fixins and snuffing torches along the way.

Oh, boy do we have a show for you this week with a heaping helping of both football and reality TV. Rick, Dalton, and Brendan start by locking in their predictions for the upcoming Washington Football Team game against the Atlanta Falcons. Then, we welcome in NFL analyst Mark Bullock, who breaks down the game tape to answer the biggest mystery in the NFL: What the hell is wrong with the WFT defense?!?? Mark also gives his take on all the WFT rookies as well as QB Taylor Heinicke. It's a must-listen for any fan of the team. 

But we're just getting started because also joining us is the human spark plug known as Teresa "T-Bird" Cooper from Survivor: Africa.

The WFT got absolutely obliterated by the Buffalo Bills and the boys are not happy about it. A lot of blame to go around, so let’s start blaming people for the loss! Grab a handful of M&Ms and join us in our communal pit of despair as we sift through the wreckage of yet another underwhelming performance and snuff a lot of torches.

A BIG week for the podcast as Rick, Brendan, and Dalton break down the first new Survivor episode in 16 months, sharing their thoughts on the new cast, the new twists, and the new production choices on the show. Then the trio turn their attention to this Sunday’s Washington Football Team game against the Buffalo Bills and lock in their (less-than-optimistic) predictions. Finally, former NFL GM and VP Michael Lombardi joins the show to give his brutally honest assessment of the Washington franchise. He also talks about what working with Bruce Allen was like (Hint: NOT GOOD!), shares his thoughts on the league, and weighs in on the great Justin Herbert vs. Chase Young debate. It’s a must listen interview for any NFL fan.

The Washington Football Team defense remained missing in action, but the offense twice came from behind in the 4th quarter in thrilling fashion and Dustin Hopkins (with help from THE CHEESEMAN!) made the most of his second chance to carry the WFT to victory over the snake-bitten New York Giants. It wasn't pretty, and there was a good amount of luck involved, but we will definitely take it. Brendan, Rick, and Dalton talk through the good, the bad, and the ugly of the huge week 2 win.

Rick, Brendan, and Dalton ponder life without Ryan Fitzpatrick as our quarterback and what it means for the team moving forward. They also once again talk about what went wrong in week number 1 and reignite their fierce Justin Herbert vs. Chase Young debate. Then, it’s time to look forward to Thursday night’s matchup against the New York Giants as the fellas lock in their prediction for week 2. After that, Survivor champion and Winner at War Ben Driebergen joins the show to discuss his controversial fantasy football trade with Sarah Lacina, explain his love of the Cleveland Browns, and announce why he wants to return for a third go round on Survivor. Finally, Rick and Brendan explain their terrible week 1 fantasy football defeats. Time codes below!

The Washington Football Team started their season in an inauspicious fashion with a 20-16 loss to the San Diego Chargers. Dalton, Rick, and Brendan go through the highs and lows of the game. We pass out All the Fixins to those who played well and snuff the torches of those who did not. It’s the full game recap you need to cleanse your soul. Plus, we weigh in on the Tanya Snyder podcast interview, and why it was such a brutal disappointment. All your WFT misery in a single podcast! Time codes below
