The Hoffman Show

Following the Mystics’ thrilling 81-79 win over the Chicago Sky, Craig catches up with Head Coach Sydney Johnson. They recap the gritty victory, break down Shakira Austin’s intensity and her on-court battle with Angel Reese, and explore how Johnson continues to preach sisterhood as the team’s foundation. Plus, Coach shares thoughts on Brittney Sykes’ evolving leadership role and how this team continues to grow through adversity.

Cam Newton stirred the pot on his Funky Friday podcast, asking DC rap legend Wale if Commanders QB Jayden Daniels will be a one-hit wonder — even comparing him to Robert Griffin III. Craig responds with a passionate rebuttal, breaking down why the RG3 comparison doesn't hold up and explaining why Jayden Daniels is built differently — physically, mentally, and organizationally. Craig lays out why Daniels is set up for sustained success in Washington.

They break down the likelihood, what a trade would signal for the Commanders’ rebuild, and why it’s still most likely Terry stays in Washington.

If the Terry McLaurin contract dispute drags into a full-blown holdout, which side are you on? Craig doesn’t pick sides—he’s firmly Team “Get the Bleeping Deal Done.” He breaks down the implications of the standoff, what both sides could want, and what it would mean for the Commanders if Terry isn’t in uniform by the time the first preseason game rolls around.
