Beltway FootballWashington missed out on landing its QB in Matt Stafford, so what do we make of that and what's next?Matt Stafford is... not a Washington Football Teamer. So, JP Finlay, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey gathered to quickly react to that trade that sent Stafford to LA and, again, not to DC. Where does the franchise go from here and is there any consolation to at least knowing they were somewhat in the race for the passer? Those discussions, and more, take place in this half bonus, half emergency installment. If you like podcasts where JP completely makes up a factoid about Babe Ruth and Pete's flaws as a boat captain are revealed, then this is the episode...

Just kidding, Tress Way owns that spot. Of course, they truly get right back into evaluating Washington's QB situation now that Deshaun Watson is officially on the trade block. In light of that, JP, Mitch and Pete each present their BEST offers for Houston's star, and then do the same for Matt Stafford and the Lions. You can be the judge of which deals are doable and which are dumb. Once they complete that segment, they each identify a signal...

He, Mitch Tischler and Pete Hailey got together to talk about Matt Stafford's addition to the list of passers Washington could very well land, and at other portions of the show, they bring up names like Deshaun Watson, Aaron Rodgers and Tua Tagovailoa. As for Stafford, the hosts also dive in to what they'd give up to acquire the Lions star. Once the chatter about signal callers ends, JP, Mitch and Pete review what they saw over Conference Championship weekend...

I dreamt about a tranquil Sunday drive,
A sensory lullaby
We trade the comics, cartoons, and magazines
For pistons and gasoline
We see the road from the bedside
Parked under the sunshine,
We feel the warmth of the engine
So we climb inside
And take it to the motorway.
Watch the clouds turn into faces it's fun to play,
Shift the gears for years and age a single day
Until we spill
Onto Russian hill.
Past cathedrals filled with god's favourite guests,
Dirty hands feel clean
When dressed in their Sunday best
