Why are the Washington Commanders sucker-punching teams in 2024? A chat with J.P. Finlay...

Jayden Daniels is special, but there's more brewing in D.C. I'm joined by Commanders beat man J.P. Finlay to dissect it all.

Apparently, the Washington Commanders were not told this was supposed to be a rebuilding year. So much for a three-year plan.

As we near the halfway point, they’re 5-2 and in prime position to win the NFC East. Rookie Jayden Daniels has exceeded the wildest of expectations — those scouts who saw “Mahomes” might’ve correct — and head coach Dan Quinn is one of the best culture-builders in the game. On Friday AM, I’ll have a story on running back Brian Robinson Jr. We sat down in Virginia, and wow. What a road it’s been for the man who absorbed two bullets.

Until then, here’s a big-picture podcast on the Commanders. I’m joined by JP Finlay.

Finlay covers the Commanders for NBC Sports Washington and hosts “B Mitch & Finley” with former NFL great Brian Mitchell on 106.7 The Fan. You can follow him on X.

We get into everything from the offensive line’s play to Daniels’ immediate success to a (very) deep coaching staff.

Audio is above and everywhere you pod, including Apple and Spotify.

Video is below.

Thank you, everyone.
