00:00does it feel like the nfc is east is wide open still and i think at one point everybody
00:06automatically assumed that the eagles were the team that was going to win this thing and now
00:11they seem like they're lost like they have a lot of issues going on the dallas cowboys we looked at
00:16them unbelievable offense the questions were all about their defense the new york giants a team
00:23that we were looking at and saying they'll be coming up the rear but right now they're leading
00:26the nfc east i think what has happened their defense is playing a lot better john harbaugh seems to have
00:31them playing more as a team offensively they lost jackson dart but now they have oh god jamis
00:38winston out there people call him jamison the man name is jamis jame is okay he's the guy leading
00:44the way but we know how volatile he can be he can be very good or he can be very
00:49bad those things
00:50happen and then the washington commanders a team who started off with one of the toughest schedules
00:55in the beginning that we thought it would be two team two two road trips in the beginning against
01:00our conference champ our conference opponents and then all of a sudden you go against the
01:05super bowl champs and you had a trip across the water in london but right now everything is bundled
01:11up and i think when you look at the giants i still people don't still even white brian even even
01:16want
01:16to say it say it he don't believe the giants can keep this all keep this up he don't believe
01:21the
01:21giants is that good so the question we're asking you does it feel like the nfc east is wide open
01:26before we go to the phone lines i'm gonna go to the go here to the studio and find out
01:31from our guys
01:31jeff what do you think well i know what jeff thinks come on man mr optimistic for sure
01:38of course of course it's wide open and i think we got to pay attention to more than just the
01:43commanders i'm talking about as other fans uh philly they just had a guy retire yeah they align and then
01:51they traded a guy away it looks like they're tearing that down the the cowboys one of my boys he
01:57is one
01:58of the most obnoxious cowboys fans and even he was like last night he was like man i thought our
02:04offense was unstoppable but this blitz is really pressuring that he's turning the ball over so just
02:10hearing just hearing and defeating his voice and understanding what's going on around of course
02:14it's wide open white brian's going to be eating like 20 hot dogs on monday because we're going to
02:19spank them giants all right so white brian i'm gonna go to you ryan is doing a little work so
02:23do you think it's open or you think the giants are going to run with run away with it i
02:28think right now
02:28it's wide open but i do believe the giants are a better team than the commanders even with james
02:33winston and if they win on sunday they take not a stranglehold because we still have
02:37three quarters of the season left but it's not as open as it is if the giants are sitting there
02:42at
02:42four and one with two winning if they lose the game what do you think then it's wide open i
02:47have
02:47no idea who's winning this thing it's the worst division in football well get ready for it to be
02:51wide open because they're gonna they're gonna win they're gonna lose the game ryan what's your take
02:55i yeah i think if we win this week then it's wide open and it's starting to remind me of
03:00like that
03:012020 year where obviously the covid stuff just kind of threw a wrench and everything but
03:05when the commanders went what seven and nine and won the division yeah like i i think that's
03:11something that could happen this year and it's starting to kind of remind me of that the eagles
03:14aren't that good the cowboys aren't that good i think we're fine trying to figure it out and
03:20the giants are on their backup quarterback probably on their third string soon all right man all right
03:261-800-636-106-7 we're gonna go straight to the phone lines and check out my guy jonesy in
03:31dc
03:31what's up jonesy what's happening man what's up with jp man what's what's going on with him
03:37hey good man he ain't making it work today he just got stuff to handle so you just answer the
03:42damn
03:43question jonesy oh okay okay okay i thought he might have broke a toenail falling out of his head
03:48but anyway moving along hey look i think the nfc most definitely is wilder we're talking about
03:55james whiston at quarterback i mean how long is he gonna hold it together man we can go in and
04:01change that this weekend if we put some rush on his behind you know what i'm saying and i don't
04:06think his wheels is all that good as far as being able to escape that rush so let's go in
04:11there and
04:11make him who he is and show him the reason why he's been a journeyman quarterback all right i think
04:16we can get this right all right jonesy appreciate your call man let's go straight to my guy mark in
04:22landover hills what's happening mark top of the day to you b you ain't nothing but right these people
04:29who call themselves sports fans or redskins fans commanders fans being negative that's all it is b
04:36and they are extremists in everything they do a lot of people are buddy and you're spot on
04:42you better believe the nfl wide open brian how could you look at it any other way buddy
04:46you's right again my man and i know you're learning up and b make sure you have a great day
04:52buddy
04:52all right man you do the same that's two people says wide open let's go to my guy shane who's
04:57sometimes taking a little different shane what's happening man the nfc is wide open
05:02what up b mitch yeah hey dare to be different b mitch dare to be different yeah it's wide open
05:08uh especially if the commanders win on saturday it's wide open uh but if they lose then you know
05:15what the johns got who would have thought the johns would have a big lead would it be a two
05:19-game lead
05:19that'd be crazy but it's just to go to show you last night when teams are desperate in the nfl
05:25they
05:25come out and they ball out look at tempa bay last night and they had what they had a backup
05:30quarterback
05:31and look what they did they went out there and they handled their business that's all we got to
05:36do our boys just don't go out there and handle their business that's it all right man appreciate
05:43your call man let's continue on with the phone calls and let's go over to baltimore check out
05:48scott scott is the nse's wide open man yes sir be mentioned your man scott uh uh stay gold pony
05:56boy from the uh from the uh casino in vegas all those years ago i think it's wide open sir
06:00i think you got uh i think you literally have i think eagles was in jacksonville we saw what
06:06happened last night you gotta check out cv smith too much right but i think it's wide open i think
06:10it's a nine and eight year i also called you guys best show on tv by on travel cast by
06:15the way fellows
06:15and uh more importantly i predicted 30 i was i was just a little off with the score i said
06:2031 something
06:21but i did predict that seattle game but i think i think more importantly i think don't don't you
06:27think b mitch i feel like it's i feel like it's right if they beat the giants it's right there
06:31james listen the giants they're not going to crumble it's it's it's it's time let's go get
06:35this w all right man i agree with you though we got to go out there and handle business and
06:39i think
06:39the whole thing about it is you can't start looking past anybody for me going forward it's about
06:46one game at a time and i know fans are going to be looking ahead players one game at a
06:51time put all
06:52your focus on that week and big things can happen for you because i believe if this team gets to
06:57rolling on offense we see when jayden is right he's super right and if they get jayden and the
07:02defense to play together i think they can cause a lot of problems out there let's uh go to my
07:08man
07:08juke in the dmv what's up juke what's happening my man tell him man hey yes yes it's wide open
07:18i man if you had no hope left last night she gave you a little bit of something and on
07:24top of that
07:24go back to that dallas game mp daniel's locked in until that injury he was he was about to do
07:30something out there offense they just got to sustain the drive to help keep the defense fresh and we can
07:38make some noise out here so i definitely think it's wide open plus it's about 6 17 to 2 and
07:442 right now
07:45on the nfc so nfc east is wide open as well as the nfc entirely is wide open that's all
07:52i got for you
07:53all right man appreciate you juke hey that's the thing about it look man i just feel like
07:57the season began like you know this is the first quarter of in essence is gone and now teams have
08:04figured out what other teams are going to do because this is how the nfl used to be every quarter
08:09they have four quarters every quarter that's when the film went out whatever you've done in those
08:14first four weeks that stuff goes out to all the teams and they can begin to figure out what you're
08:18doing and the teams that are very good at constructing offenses and defenses they were the best
08:25they find out what you're doing what you love to do and they went at it but there are also
08:29some teams
08:29out there with the first four weeks they did things that were successful but they already had a game
08:35plan to switch it up so as soon as you figured out what they were doing in the first four
08:38weeks
08:39they will switch it up on you and you go ready for that stuff and they threw something else at
08:42you
08:42and they messed you up joe gives was great at it you look at the damn uh new england patriots
08:47bill belichick was good at it uh parcells was absolutely amazing with it so now you got to worry
08:53about that how many teams have shown you something for the first four weeks that are going to switch
08:57it up you know and i'm not saying switch it up and try new switch it up and do something
09:02they've
09:02already practiced i mentioned to uh you all before and i mentioned to jp a lot coach gives used to
09:08always practice what our our options would be if we've got audibles we're going to be we go out
09:14there and we started something he say when we keep doing this they're going to start trying to do this
09:19and then we'll run this not many people can practice that but there are teams out there that
09:24are figuring these things out and i think washington right now i look at a lot of things that blau
09:29has
09:30dialed up the blau has dialed up they were open we just didn't execute it if we execute a lot
09:36of
09:36those plays i look at the early one uh and earlier in the uh this year to uh trailing burks
09:42he was wide
09:43open overthrowing i look at another one we threw up a half i mean a wide receiver pass terry was
09:50open
09:50we threw the ball way behind him there are things that have been dialed up that work defensively we
09:57have been playing some terrific game but we couldn't get much help from the offense right now it's about
10:01that uh often that come you know you got to go out and help each other out and if you
10:05go out there
10:06and you play that complimentary football great things can begin to happen for you so for me i
10:11believe this thing is open i think we have a chance i think we have to try to figure it
10:16out
10:17uh a way to just go out there and uh keep things going i just think keeping people upright will
10:22make
10:22a big difference let's go to columbia check out steve steve what's going on man hey d bench how are
10:28you
10:28i'm doing well hey i like i like the way you uh your whole uh perspective i think it's i
10:36think it's
10:36awesome thank you um i think i think it's open um i would throw out that i think whoever is
10:43going to
10:43be able to make the best decisions and ambiguity and be critical thinkers i mean leadership over the
10:48next 13 games for all of these teams i think those are going to be the winners so i only
10:53worry
10:53and hope that our coaching staff and and and and management and ap and everybody can can think
11:01critically over the next couple weeks about who's healthy who's not who do we put our resources into
11:07what do we really need to change because i think we're up against some tough competitors when it
11:11comes to that right when it comes to either philly the cowboys um and uh certainly with harbaugh now
11:19up there uh in in new york i think it's i think it's going to be difficult so but i
11:23think i think
11:24definitely the potential is there for the commanders all right man appreciate your call
11:29well basically i think what steve was saying everybody's backing up against the wall
11:33and we're going to find out who's going to fold in a tough situation right now this is where you
11:37can
11:38prove it not just players coaches and people in the front office as well it's on you to go out
11:44there
11:44and make the right moves and make sure the commanders can do that thing we're going to continue on with
11:47the phone calls 800-636-1067 give us a call let us know if the nfce still wide open hell
11:53the nfl
11:53still wide open taking your calls when we get back
