Defeating The [dc Sports] Curse

Heinicke is back, with a new pair of green and yellow Jordans. Listen in to FP and LP breaking down the Commanders win against Green Bay and preview the Colts game. Let us know what you think @defeatthecurse on Elon Musk's app, Twitter.  

FP and LP are back at it with some passion! Ron Rivera had some interesting comments about why the Commanders are 1-4 yet the Eagles are 5-0, Cowboys and Giants 4-1. Three segments to the show, the coaching staff, Carson Wentz, and what the team need to do to get better. Listen in and let us know what you think @defeatthecurse on twitter

  On this episode FP and LP plea to Ron Rivera to TRY SOMETHING different. This team is too predictable, the Lions knew it and the Eagles knew it. After an abysmal outing against the Eagles the Commanders are back at it with another NFC East division rival, the Dallas Cowboys. How can the Commanders get back on track? Do they have a fighting chance? Listen in and let us know what you think @defeatthecurse on Twiter.

Welcome into Defeating the Curse, a DC Sports Podcast. Dive in with FP and LP as they recap the Commanders victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars and preview the Detroit Lions. There was plenty to like and a few things to dislike about the Commanders performance. But hey, it's only week 1 let's not over or under react to one victory. #HTTC   Photo Credit: USAToday

Stevie, Razzle, and Joe are recapping a wild week one around the NFL with unlikely winners, suspect losers, and some tough betting spots as well. Carson is a wild one that will take advantage of his big play receivers at every opportunity he can.. even if that means being a tad too aggressive at times. Panic time for the Rams? Packers? 49ers?... and how poor was the Broncos game on Monday night?? Football is back, the show is back, RIP to the Queen.

Stevie, FP, and Joe are ready to talk about week one! The NFL is back! Tune in to find out just how up or down the boys are on the upcoming Commanders season + a top5 and low5 look around the league. FP and Stevie have the Chiefs in their top five, while Joe has the Chargers and Saints in his. Also, why was BALLERS so good? 

NFL Week 1 is finally here! Join FP and LP as they discuss this week's slate of NFL games and dive deeper into Carson Wentz's regular season debut with the Washington Commanders. Plus who is FP's and LP's sleeper pick for the week? Join in and give us your thoughts on twitter @defeatthecurse

FP and Joe are on the mics and are looking forward as the Commanders prepare to make their final roster cuts and likely roster additions as they await linebackers to be cut from other teams... isn't it crazy other teams 4th and 5th options will likely start in DC!? The boys also breakdown the DC QB room, RB stable, and WRs while considering just how good or bad can this team be in the NFC east.

Mic check, mic check... Stevie and Joe are return to the pod to catch-up on a few different topics while the dust settles on summer 2022. Nationals trade their brightest star, after trading their previous brightest stars, after letting their stud slugger leave town... and Stevie is convinced Mike Rizzo can rebuild the team (again... and quickly)! The Commanders look worse defensively but the real chatter is about the Lions on HARD KNOCKS... Tiger isn't going to LIV, Manti T'eo has a must watch documentary on Netflix that must be watched ... and what do you expect from a Game of Thrones reboot/spin-off? Welcome back to DTC.

Terry McLaruin inks his deal, Dan Synder is in the middle of a mess but it doesn't seem to bother him. Join LP and FP discuss everything DC Sports over the last few weeks. 

FP and LP are back at it, talking Commanders, Caps, Wizards, NBA and NHL playoffs. Catch up on the offseason for all 3 DC teams and what they can do to go deeper into the playoffs. 

Could the end be near for Commanders owner Dan Snyder after leaked reports show ticket sales were padded and not disclosed to the other NFL owners? What if the team moves to London, could another team be relocated to DC? Plus, remembering #7 and a quick chat about the Capitals and how they remind Joe of old guys playing basketball stringing together wins by outsmarting the competition. Listen now as FP and Joe discuss it all and remember you can live tweet the show anytime from any social media platform!

“FP and LP discuss their favorite time of year. Free agency shuffle and the QB carousel. Did the Commanders do the smart move? Which teams improved or got worse? With the AFC exodus is the NFC wide open and ready for Washington to TAKE COMMAND?

The Commanders will have a new face of the franchise at the start of next season and it will be Carson Wentz! After weeks of back and forth about trading for Watson, or Rodgers (never), or Wilson (ha!), the Comms landed Wentz for a very reasonable asking price from the Colts... but why so cheap? Stevie, Joe, and FP go through all the events of the past few days and grade the Comms on their new acquisition... but what happens next, specifically what do they do with the 11th overall pick? It's been a wild 48 hours in the NFL and the DTC crew is here for it all!

FP and LP are back on the mics! Talking quarterbacks for the Commanders. Lots of names to discuss, Aaron Rodgers, Russell Wilson, Deshaun Watson, Derek Carr, Baker Mayfield, Carson Wentz, Jimmy G, Mitch Trubisky all discussed on this episode. Which would you want as a Commanders fan? Listen in to here where LP and FP want the Commanders to go. 

Stevie and Joe are on the mics and are ready to talk about everything post-NFL. Should the Saudi's standup a rival to the PGA? Can the NBA ever recapture the magic of the early 2000s east/west all-star game and dunk contests? What does a real offer to Juan Soto look like if you are the Nationals + Zim's legacy is sealed in DC.

Stevie, Razzle, and Joe are on the mics to discuss the Super Bowl and recap the game, the big plays, the missed plays, the coaching and everything in between. The boys also break down the half-time show and debate which performer should have been left out. What happens now that football is over? Do we prioritize the Wizards or the Capitals?... will baseball ever return? 

  The NBA is nuts. The NBA trade deadline was extra nuts. The Wizards didn't trade Brad. ALSO.... It's Super Week and the boys are ready to make their pics! Stevie and Razzle are on the RAMS and Joe is on the Bengals... but there is a lot of confusion about who might be MVP and over/under QB rushing yards as a prop bet too. The boys also debate if this is the beginning of the end for Dan in DC and break down hyper inflation and the housing market because why not... tune in! 

The Redskins became the Football Team and have now become the Commanders. The name isn't terrible but why did it seem the organization was unprepared for an announcement of this magnitude? Three guys sitting out on the lawn? No stage? No hype video? ... just seemed lacking... but it is finished. Today the name changed, and tomorrow congress will begin in their inquiry into allegations of misconduct. Busy few days in DC.

In a few days the #Redskins will be renamed to "something"... finally! FP and Joe revisit the AFC/NFC Championship games and debate if the WFT have a chance at landing Jimmy G after the 49ers fall short of the Super Bowl. Both boys think the Bengals have a chance but how can you not cheer for Mathew Stafford? Conversely, Joey B makes us all believe miracles can happen... and happen quickly!
