Episode Details

The Washington Commanders host the Seattle Seahawks at 0-2 with Marcus Mariota starting in place of Jayden Daniels, but Washington doesn’t need Mariota to become Daniels to win. The Commanders need him to keep David Blough’s offense functional, protect the football and give the rest of the roster a chance to finally play the complementary football that’s been missing through two weeks.

Then, why Seattle’s four-man rush presents a major test for Washington’s offensive line, how the secondary can limit Jaxon Smith-Njigba with Nick Cross out, and why third-down efficiency and the turnover battle could decide the Commanders’ home opener.

Host David Harrison covers the the Commanders Commanders for the Locked On network and for WUSA9 as a digital beat reporter.
