Bobby's been on with us before. He came on with us before the season started to talk about the NFC East and the Cowboys.

And here we are, Bobby, six weeks into the season.

I want to start with this.

I just asked, and we did a call segment, do you view this game as Code Red, meaning must win?

And I don't personally, from Washington standpoint, believe that it is that dire, like a loss dropping us
