Don't forget, you can read my work on ESPN.com. In a minute, I'll be joined by former Redskins tight end, Logan Paulson. Now, of course, an analyst with the team, and I want to bring them on to talk about the commander's offense now that we hit the point where we know a lot more what they have after the addition of Antonio Williams and possibly the impact of K. Trine Allen.

So what do they add to the offense?

How is this offense coming together now that you see more of the pieces in place?

You got McCorn on the outside. You got Williams on the inside and you got Chirgo Conquil running some overs in that play action, how it can all fit together. And Logan, of course, was really good on all of this. And for next week, I have an interview with Davos Sweeney that I've already recorded. I think you will really enjoy it learning about Williams. Dabo is, listen, man, this is college coach. He's going to love him. But he was really

good at explaining his journey and just what he saw from the beginning and why he turned himself

into a third round receiver and how he said he's, he's as good as any receiver his head, and he's had

some pretty damn good one. So stay tuned for that early next week. Before I get there, I wanted to pass along some sad news for those. I don't know how many you grew up in the Virginia Beach area if you did. Hopefully you read Jim Duceabella from the Virginia pilot. I'm taping this on Thursday. Got the notification very early Thursday morning that he had died.

And Jim had been sick for a while, so a lot of us had a chance to talk to him and just kind of express what he meant to us and the role he played in our lives and, et cetera. And Jim was a great guy. He was, first of all, a terrific writer. And I just briefly talk about that. He's in the Virginia Sports Hall of Fame. He was named the SportsWrater of the Year a number of times in Virginia.

And just a talented, talented writer. To me, Rick Snyder would always say this, and I agree with Rick, that he wrote the best game stories, period. And I would agree. I thought I would write a good one. And then I read his. I'm like, oh, mine sucks. So, but that was how

talented Jim was. He was also a very, very, very good person. And that's what I will always remember. And I, like I said, I had a chance to tell him how much he meant to me. And it means a lot to me that people like him and Paul Woody. And when Rick was around, I was Dave Elfin, guys like that, when I feel like they

kind of raised me in this business and it means something to me that, and I tell them, I carry

something from them, each of them, going forward and especially Deuce. And so like there were a lot

of times in the road, it would be Paul and Deuce and I going out to eat, going for walks over

the Golden Gate Bridge, whatever was. But Deuce was great to everybody and just a, just treated everybody very well. And just also a

little bit of a character would sometimes he would have some computer issues. One time in

Dallas had something to happen to the computer had to get somebody to borrow one of theirs

from Dallas. Then he had his his his computer got stuck on all

caps when they were in kansas city so he can only write in all caps and it was but that's just kind

of it was one time he's coming to redskin park and he forgot to coached at a pull over at a gas
