Surviving Snyder

Things get heated on our latest episode when Survivor: Heroes v Healers v Hustlers finalist Ryan Ulrich joins us to respond to cutting remarks from Brendan about his favorite football player ever, Eli Manning. Ryan defends Eli’s honor and explains why the younger Manning deserves a yellow jacket in Canton. It’s an intense, emotional, and hilarious back and forth that you don’t want to miss as we discuss all things Giants and WFT. Speaking of the WFT, Dalton, Rick, and Brendan weigh in on the big Washington Football Team news that they will no longer be the Washington Football team as of Feb. 2. What do they make of Red Wolves no longer being in the picture? How do they feel about alternate black uniforms? And what’s up with that helmet reflection in the window? Settle in as they get into all that and more and then welcome Ryan onto the show and make final game predictions. Time codes below!

Even with Dalton and Brendan in attendance the WFT couldn't secure the last minute victory over Philadelphia.  The guys share their thoughts on the in-game experience at Fedex field.  We debate whether to root for a "W" against the Giants or root for a higher draft pick.  And, of course, we're handing out fixin's to the few players who shined in this week's losing effort.

Just when it appeared the Washington Football Team had hit rock bottom, they found a new low against the hated Cowboys. A depleted WFT limped into Dallas with a glimmer of hope but staggered out on the brink of elimination from the NFC playoff picture. Dalton and Brendan put this loss into historical context and discuss the boxing match that broke out on the sideline. Join the guys as they shift focus to Washington playing spoiler and pin their hopes to another early playoff exit for the Cowboys.

The Washington Football Team’s playoff chances took a big hit with a 27-17 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles on Tuesday night that puts them into Do or Die territory — no Survivor pun intended — when it comes to getting into the playoffs. Dalton, Rick, and Brendan break down the performance of the COVID-depleted WFT and look ahead to next week. Then, Survivor legend Malcolm Freberg joins us. Malcolm explains his unexplainable love of the dreaded Dallas Cowboys before taking us on a deep dive of his Survivor journey while also sharing his thoughts about every twist on season 41. This guy knows his stuff when it comes to both football and reality TV, so sit back, pop open a brewski, and pick up what Malcolm is putting down. Time codes below!

Everything went wrong for the Washington Football Team offense for the first 55 minutes against the Dallas Cowboys. But then the team somehow had a chance to win, before fumbling it all away once again. What the hell happened out there? And how the hell did they manage to get back in the game (albeit briefly)? Dalton and Brendan sift through the wreckage of a depressing 27-20 loss that was not as close as it sounds. Share our pain! Share our misery! Take a seat on our bench of futility — a bench that was NOT flown in by Jerry Jones.

It’s Dallas week here on Surviving Snyder, which means we’re watching a former Dallas Cowboy get his torch snuffed on Survivor and then getting pumped for the Washington Football Team’s upcoming NFC East grudge match against the Evil Empire. Dalton, Rick, and Brendan start off by dissecting the penultimate episode of Survivor 41 and then place bets on who will win the season. We then turn back the clock (or is smashing the hourglass?) to look back at our favorite Washington vs. Dallas games ever, and there are some real doozies. And we finish up by looking ahead to Sunday’s big game and what we expect to go down. Reality TV! Football! Together! Enjoy! Time codes for discussions are below:
