is the kevin she had showed dent and a sitting in for kevin here on the team 980 you hear that

music it's time to connect with our guy ben standing he joins us live from ashburn dan quinn's

going to talk here in like 10 minutes you'll hear that as well ben you've covered a lot of games for the commanders over the years.

I can't imagine this one ranks very high in terms of excitement for you this weekend.

No, it's so little. In fact, I want to go back to you, you mentioned the theme music.

I don't know Max or ever told you, but like with Max producing, so this is like, you've, you've been doing for a long time. He says one day, why are we playing last, uh, while we're playing this Elton John song? And Max, like, well, because Benton, you know, came up with this for Ben, the last name. You're like, oh, I never knew that. I was like, dude, it's been the same song for years. I literally did it for two years, and he never, and she had never asked me about it,

a guy that would routinely comment on the music coming back, and he just never made the connection.

Exactly, exactly.

Yes, the game itself could not.

I mean, look, obviously we'll find certain levels of interest.

Is this a game where Benson that gets more involved?

And how does Johnny Newton build off of what he did a week ago or things along those lines?

But yes, in terms of, you know, even from the result standpoint, sure, there's a world

of Washington could move up in the draft order if they were to lose and a combination of other teams in front of them were to win. But even there, they can't be any worse than where they are now at seven. So, you know what I mean? Also, even if they win, it's not like, it's not like they're going to move all the way back to 12 or something. So, yeah, there's not a ton here. But, you know, as I have to people off point out, in two months and we're all going, man, kind of miss football right now? I'm like, what, I guess. You know what? I would take it about, and look, last week, not many expectations. Dallas was playing most of its guys. You know, it was an entertaining game. So we can root for that, hopefully. Who's going to be playing quarterback for the commanders? Not Marriota, right? No, I'm going to assume it's Josh Johnson. I mean, there's been no indication that it would be Sam Hartman. And, you know, I don't imagine. Is Sam Hartman that bad? Do they really not like him that much?

You know, it's all relative, right?

I mean, like, not everybody who plays, who's, like, on a roster as a quarterback,

he's ready to go right then.

You know, I mean, some guys require multiple years of, you know,

practicing, getting prepped by the staff, whatever it is.

So, no, obviously, based on what we know,

they aren't viewing Sam Hartman as, like, let's just say Marriota signed somewhere else

next year.
