WJFK-FM / 106.7 The Fan

BMitch and JP discuss the media starting the narrative that Washington's season should be considered a failure if the Commanders don't make a run to the Super Bowl. The guys think that take is absolute nonsense.

00:00it's like the Fox Sports one

00:04show like the whatever one of

00:05their yellow shows is in the

00:06morning. Um I think it was

00:07that's whatever show it is. If

00:11the commanders don't get to a

00:12Super Bowl this year, it's a

00:14failure because they were in

00:15the NFC title game last year.

00:17That's just so patently

00:19incorrect. That's what I'm

00:20saying. You gotta realize who

00:21you're dealing with. T-Shawn

00:23has always said outlandish BS.

00:24Right. Getting there and get to

00:27where you got last year. A lot

00:28of great things have to work

00:29out but it doesn't automatically

00:31mean it's going to happen the

00:32next and that's what real

00:34people who talk real football

00:36and sports understand. You get

00:38there 1 year. It doesn't

00:39automatically mean you're going

00:40to next year. You gotta get

00:43better. You can't have a lot of

00:45injuries, you know, and you

00:46know how I am about the injury

00:47thing but that scares the hell

00:48out of me sometimes when a team

00:50go through the year, they don't

00:51have many. I'm worried about

00:52the next one because nine times

00:54out of ten in this league, you

00:55don't have complete health for

00:57year after year after year. It

00:59doesn't happen. Right. Yeah,

01:01dude. Every year is dude. Every

01:03year is its own entity. Every

01:05week is its own entity. Yeah.

01:07Like, you know what? Like in the

01:09NBA, you can pencil the nuggets

01:11in for they're a title

01:14contender because they have

01:15right because it's five players

01:17on the court. You got 53 dudes.

01:20You got 45 guys. You got

01:22legitimately 35 dudes playing at

01:25least half of your snaps every

01:27damn near every week. You have

01:29probably a seizing in the

01:31injury. If not a dude's out for

01:32a month, like it's just a

01:34constant evolution constant. So

01:37to surmise any one thing like to

01:39me, I got asked this on all

01:40years the other night be what

01:42should be reasonable

01:43expectations for Washington this

01:44year. My belief is when you land

01:47a quarterback when the Saints

01:49had Drew Brees when the Chargers

01:51had Phillip Rivers, right when

01:52you land a quarterback and I

01:54don't care about the rankings,

01:56right? Like I'm not saying he's

01:57top five. I'm not saying he's

01:58top eight wherever he lands

02:00Washington as a quarterback now

02:02and generally when you have a

02:03quarterback, you should be

02:05talking thinking about the

02:07divisional round of the playoff.

02:08There you go. Once you get

02:10there, who the hell knows what

02:11happens? There you go. But that

02:12should be your expectation.

02:13Yeah, but like man, listen, I've

02:15listened to so much Keishon

02:16shows him and him and Paul

02:19Pierce. Both of those dudes are

02:22trying to say the most the

02:23craziest thing they can say. I

02:25sit back, I look at it and then

02:27I realize, okay, Keishon came

02:29this league with a lot of

02:30expectations, right? Did he live

02:31up to him? No. Hell no. Those

02:33tequila shots. I don't want to

02:34hear that crap. Those tequila

02:35shots at Beverly Hills with Paul

02:36Pierce did you win though? I

02:37remember that.
