00:00Isn't it great though that I mean the football in the area on the beltway both teams are kicking ass

00:05It's great for fans. I mean because it's been a long time

00:09Like I said, and you talk about the Snyder years what a disaster that guy was

00:14I mean, honestly fans just hated his guts and things are changing now and they're winning and what a vibe to have both teams

00:23You know, I think the Ravens ever since they started winning they're gonna keep winning

00:27Everybody already knows how good they are. Now. They're doing their thing. It's the commanders. No one saw this coming

00:33I thought yesterday when I saw the kid throw that sling to McLaren, it was just crazy. That pass was just beautiful

00:41It was 60 so he had to escape out of a sack. It was third and 13

00:45He'd be able to get out of a sack that I don't know that there's

00:48Five quarterbacks in the NFL that get out of the sack to begin with he's rolling right rolling, right?

00:53And you really saw some growth in

00:55Jason Daniels just from week one in that he had plenty of open grass in front of him if he chose to take off with

01:01His legs trying to pick up the first down. He didn't kept his eyes downfield saw McLaurin deep

01:06I mean, he didn't really get the play on his feet set his shoulders. He just flung it

01:11That ball had to go 60 62 yards in the air. Terry brings it in

01:15He's not able to keep his feet gets a little he gets kind of tackled there goes down at the two-yard line or whatever

01:20But the physical gifts Daniels the throws he's making the touchdown throw. He had to be on me Brown

01:26I mean that the accuracy on that ball in the corner of the end zone is just unbelievable

01:31You match that with the accuracy on the touchdown throw to McLaurin on the Monday nighter against Cincinnati

01:37Jane Daniels looks like he could do it all it's got to your point the Ravens

01:41Unfortunately, whatever fortunately, unfortunately, however, you do it they've been kicking ass for some time

01:46You know two Super Bowls in the last 25 years

01:49Whatever that is and just a perennial playoff team perennial contender under John Harbaugh

01:54Washington hasn't been that Washington's largely been a roller coaster disaster and it feels

02:01So different now because you've got new ownership. I think of all the candidates to take over a front office last year

02:08They got the best one in Adam Peters who had success with the Niners success of the Broncos success for Patriots

02:14Dan Quinn, you know, there was some consternation about the hire. He's been really good since he got here

02:19he's certainly that leader of men on a

02:22Roster that's half young half old and they're trying to rebuild on the fly and win

02:27for Washington specifically

02:29There is more reason for optimism than there's probably been in 25 years
