Don't forget you can read my work on ESPN.com. We have a bunch of stories coming up over the next several weeks. So just kind of looking back on the season, looking ahead, all that good stuff. And you're going to have a lot of time to talk about the offseason here, folks, many, many months of, after a while, the same topics. but we're trying to put good spins on all of them, right? And throughout the podcast, we're going to dig into a lot of different things. And today, we're starting with Bram Weinstein, the Voice Commanders, as we talk a lot about, we, to say we talk about the finale is not really true. Like, we talk about it from the standpoint of, are there young players that you still want to see that could be playing more or you know, that you rather see like who isn't, who hasn't been playing that you really want to see as far as what they can do? And there's, they're not, not a big list here. So they have been playing a lot of young guys and sometimes matter of, would you like to see them play, have played more? In some cases, yes. Anyway, so we talk about that,

talk about, like, I asked Bram, like, what, what do you think should not be overreacted to and what maybe needs to be, you can't, you might have to make sure you don't underreact to, so you can answer your own questions that. I ask Bram that. So I'll ask you that. So if you want to leave a message in the or leave something in the comments, feel free to do that. So we talk a little bit about Cliff Kingsbury and a few other topics that will impact the commanders in the offseason. So stay tuned for that. Before I get there, just a couple things. Number one, happy new year to everybody. Hope you have a happy safe new year. I will be back on Friday with my five thoughts. The video for that will come out Saturday morning. So stay tuned for that as they wrap up the, you get ready for the finale at 425 on Sunday. Thank you, NFL, for not making a one o'clock game. Come on. Anyways, that's fine. Last game, we'll get to the offseason. And then they have locker cleanout day on Monday. We're going to be out there all day. And then Adam Peters and Dan Quinn will be having a press conference on Monday after all the locker cleanout stuff is done. So stay tuned for all that stuff next week. And if there's any news from that, it'll be on ESPN.com, and then I'll talk about it here for

sure.

So there you go.

That's one thing.

And then now, too. So I want to talk a little bit about the draft order because I think there's, I don't know if there's confusion, but different sites have it different. So some have it at number seven. Tankathon has at seven. And other sites have the commanders picking number six.

Now, the worst the commanders can pick is seventh overall.

I talked about that. 7. Tankathon has it's seven. Other sites have them have the commanders picking number six.

Now, the worst the commanders can pick is seventh overall. I talked about that in a podcast the other day. So why is there a discrepancy? Well, it all, it appears to be based on how

they view the strength of schedule as it currently is. Tankathon takes into account every

opponent for every game. So in other words,
