| 0:00.0 | Anybody, anywhere. |
| 0:03.9 | It's time to take command with former NFL tight end, Logan Paulson. |
| 0:10.1 | This past caught by Paulson to tight end. |
| 0:12.5 | And from 1067, the fan, Grant Paulson. |
| 0:20.5 | Welcome in to Take Command, Logan Paulson. |
| 0:23.6 | With me, I'm Grant Paulson, and the schedule has finally been released. |
| 0:28.8 | Logan, when you were playing, this was not the holiday that it's become. |
| 0:32.7 | But I think a lot of things are at play here. |
| 0:34.9 | Number one, a lot of commanders fans travel for these games, and specifically, you got people |
| 0:39.8 | that pick one or two trips a year to go to. |
| 0:42.7 | I think that happens all over the league. |
| 0:44.4 | But, you know, it is a very big day for fans as you kind of go through the schedule for the first time. |
| 0:50.2 | You look and finding wins and losses, and it just become kind of this right of passage, this benchmark in the offseason that lets you to start dreaming on football a little bit. Yeah, I think that's exactly right. And you talked about this on the last show, Grant, and, you know, like you've covered this so long, it's just the NFL does such a good job of making themselves relevant year-round. And I understand that this is an |
| 1:11.2 | important job. And it kind of, in some ways, it kind of starts your 2026 season, right? Because again, the draft is one thing. That's kind of you're building the roster for agencies one thing. But this is the moment where you get to kind of say, here are the games I want to go to here, the matchups here, the ones that are going to really at this point of the year kind of define the season. |
| 1:30.7 | So I do think it's kind of this. here are the games I want to go to here, the matchups here, the ones that are going to really |
| 1:28.0 | at this point of the year kind of define the season. So I do think it's kind of this weird |
| 1:31.9 | catalyst for 2006. We are, as we record this on May 14th, Thursday night, exactly three months |
| 1:40.3 | from the preseason opener. So think about how crazy that is. August 14th against the Miami Dolphins. They'll obviously have a new head coach and coaching staff, and then the lions and the Ravens in the preseason. But I thought we could just go through the schedule. We're not going to pick games, wins, and losses. I think that's a useless and futile exercise in May. It's not who you play. It's when you play them. A lot of injuries are going to happen. You don't know what quarterback's going to be on the field. But I think there's a fun conversation to be had here. First things, first right off the top, you open in the division, back-to-back weeks on the road at Philly, 425, probably a national TV game in the second window on Fox, so maybe your |
| 2:20.4 | Burkhart Brady game. I think that's in play the following week in Dallas as well, another |
| 2:25.3 | 425 kick, have not opened against the Eagles on the road since 2017, Terry McClurend's |
| 2:31.3 | rookie year when he caught a 75-yard touchdown from Case Keenham. |
| 2:34.9 | But back-to-back weeks against the two top teams on paper in the division, you're going to get |
