Craig braves the YouTube comments section, addressing some of the biggest items currently stirring the pot in Washington Commanders land. It's a candid response to fan reactions, controversies, and the pulse of Commanders Nation.

Craig welcomes Dan Pizzuta from the 33rd Team to break down what he saw from the three starting rookie QBs in Week 1, including Jayden Daniels of the Commanders. Pizzuta analyzes if Kliff Kingsbury’s scheme did enough to support Daniels and evaluates Joe Whitt Jr.'s debut as defensive coordinator for Washington. With Emmanuel Forbes Jr. sidelined after wrist surgery, Pizzuta suggests potential cornerback options for the Commanders and mentions an offensive free agent who could also be a good fit. They wrap up by previewing Thursday Night Football between the Bills and Dolphins.
