With Terry McLaurin sidelined, Lynnell asks the big question: Who needs to step up in his absence? Lynnell points to offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury as the one under the most pressure, while Anthony agrees that it won't fall on just one player. Instead, he expects Kingsbury's scheme to spread the ball around, with six, seven, or even eight different players potentially making an impact on Sunday.

Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury speaks to the media ahead of week four.

Hour 3 of BMitch & Finlay features Kliff Kingsbury speaking with the media and a Wizards preview with Chase Hughes.

Lynnell is joined by Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic to discuss whether her outlook on the Commanders has changed at all through the early part of the season. Nicki raves about Washington's dominant front four and the impact it has had on games so far. They also examine how much pressure Kliff Kingsbury is under heading into Sunday's matchup with the possibility of being without Terry McLaurin, and they close the conversation debating whether or not Jayden Daniels should play this weekend.

Mike Johnson, Beau Morgan, and Ali Mac talk about what percentage of Falcons fans they think would take Washington Commanders' Offensive Coordinator Kliff Kingsbury as the Atlanta Falcons' Head Coach right now let listeners call in and give their take on how they're feeling about Zac Robinson, Raheem Morris, the Falcons' matchup with the Commanders on Sunday, and the Georgia Bulldogs' matchup with the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday in the Wake Up Call!

Chris “The Rooster” Russell breaks down key stats that put the Commanders' offense into perspective, analyzing how the team has performed through the first part of the season. He also highlights the impact of offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury's schemes, explaining how his play-calling and strategy are shaping the team's offensive identity and influencing their success on the field.

Lynnell recaps Monday Night Football between the Ravens and Lions and draws a parallel to Washington. Just like Detroit, the Lions have a clear identity, and Lynnell believes the Commanders may have found theirs in Sunday's dominant win over the Raiders. The formula is simple: stick to running the football, because it's what allows the offense to operate at its best. Now, the challenge is whether Kliff Kingsbury has the patience to keep leaning on it with his play-calling.

Lynnell welcomes on Mitch Tischler of the Beltway Football Podcast to break down the state of the Commanders ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Falcons. They start with the latest on Terry McLaurin, who is getting a second opinion on his quad injury, and discuss how big of a blow his absence could be. Mitch also shares whether his outlook on Washington has changed at all after the dominant win over the Raiders, and why stopping Bijan Robinson is the top priority against Atlanta's offense. Plus, what Marcus Mariota must do to keep the offense efficient, and how much confidence Mitch has in Kliff Kingsbury sticking with the run game that carried Washington last week.

After being out-schemed and out-coached in their loss to the Packers last Thursday, Lynnell asks the big question: Which coordinator is under the most pressure heading into Sunday's matchup against the Raiders? For Lynnell, the answer is clear—Kliff Kingsbury. With heavy investments made on the offensive side of the ball, the Commanders' offense has yet to find its rhythm, and Kingsbury needs to show he can get things on track.

9.16.25, Kevin Sheehan reacts to Dan Quinn being critical of the offensive playcalling in the Commanders' loss to the Packers.

Lynnell and Anthony dive into Jayden Daniels' knee injury and the question that follows: does he need to adjust his play style? Both agree his legs are what make him dynamic, but Lynnell stresses that Daniels must develop better discernment to avoid unnecessary hits and know when to get down. Anthony argues that Kliff Kingsbury may need to tweak the offense, putting Jayden under center more often to create a versatile rushing attack, open up play-action, and reduce the hits Daniels takes in shotgun-heavy sets.

Mackenzie Rivers and Dan Rivera talk NFL Survivor for Week 1. 0:15–1:23 — Mackenzie Rivers kicks things off by welcoming listeners back, noting the show's growth from a small SoundCloud project to a widely followed contest discussion. His opening blends humor with a promise of actionable insight, reminding everyone the goal is making sharp picks and lasting deep into the season. 1:24–2:07 — Dan Rivera admits he's moved away from fantasy football, finding Survivor contests more rewarding. He frames it as a different kind of grind where deep runs matter more than fantasy titles, setting a tone of seriousness and strategy. 2:07–3:35 — Rivers highlights Philadelphia's opener, where betting lines moved from around −315 pregame to as high as −450 live. He credits Jalen Hurts' rushing as the difference-maker and cautions against overreacting to the close margin, signaling to Survivor players that patience pays. 3:57–6:34 — Rivera turns to Dallas, pointing out their lack of pass rush, reliance on penalties, and roster questions. His verdict is that Week 1 divisional games can be misleading, and bettors shouldn't make rash judgments about either team. 6:34–8:26 — Rivers adds that both sides had only eight possessions, skewing scoring totals. He sees Philly as a missed opportunity for those who didn't take them, stressing that contest entries using the Eagles now sit with an early advantage. 8:26–12:37 — The two break down contest formats. Circa runs 20 weeks with holidays as separate slates, BetOnline uses 19, and Splash demands double picks late in the season. Rivera calls Splash unfair, while Rivers corrects a schedule note, underscoring the importance of knowing rules inside out. 14:41–22:11 — The Denver Broncos emerge as the strongest pick. Rivera cites Tennessee's limited passing attack and shaky quarterback situation, while Rivers builds the case with history: rookie Week 1 quarterbacks are 2–10 straight up, No. 1 overall picks 1–8–1 in debuts, and Denver is 17–5 in Week 1 at altitude. He also stresses Sean Payton's strong Week 1 record. 25:46–32:51 — Washington versus the Giants is flagged as dangerous. Rivera notes regression risk for the Commanders' defense and praises New York's pass rush, while Rivers points out Kliff Kingsbury's teams often fade quickly. Survivor takeaway: avoid this shaky matchup. 32:52–41:54 — Arizona against New Orleans is another focus. Rivera is low on the Saints' offense, while Rivers goes further, calling them possibly the league's worst. Both see the Cardinals as nearly as safe as Denver, particularly with defensive pressure likely to cause problems. 46:41–49:53 — Rivers warns against Cincinnati as a Survivor choice, pointing to their September struggles under Zach Taylor and the Browns' ability to keep games close as divisional home dogs. 49:55–54:38 — Kansas City against the Chargers in Brazil is floated as a contrarian option. Rivera highlights the Chiefs' healthier roster and defensive strength, while Rivers acknowledges the upside but warns about neutral-site volatility. 54:39–1:01:12 — The Steelers versus Jets round out the debate. Rivera believes Tomlin will force Fields into passing errors and lean on the defensive front. Rivers adds historical data showing quarterbacks like Fields struggle early. They agree Pittsburgh is a viable but risky third option. Closing — The consensus locks Denver as the top pick, Arizona as a strong secondary, and Pittsburgh as a situational third. For formats allowing repeats, they lean toward doubling up on Denver. The wrap emphasizes discipline, historical awareness, and knowing contest rules as the keys to staying alive week after week.
