The Washington Commanders’ preseason kicks off with a tough 48-18 loss to the New England Patriots, but the final score doesn’t tell the whole story. David Harrison breaks down the entire game, from the disastrous opening kickoff to the glimmers of hope provided by the offense in the second half.

Get an in-depth analysis of Sam Hartman’s debut—the early struggles, the mid-game adjustments by Kliff Kingsbury, and his final stat line. Plus, hear how veteran Josh Johnson provided a spark, leading two touchdown drives but also committing a costly turnover. David also breaks down the performances of key rookies like Josh Conerly Jr., Jacory Croskey-Merritt, Kain Medrano, and Trey Amos, and dives deep into the penalties and special teams mistakes that plagued the team.

The episode culminates with the biggest bright spot of the night: second-year defensive lineman Johnny Newton. After discussing his dominant strip-sack and overall impact, you’ll hear directly from Johnny in a post-game locker room interview!
