Washington has more questions than answers at quarterback right now, but on the brink of full offseason number one for Ron Rivera, the possibilities are out there. On this edition of the Cult of Colt, we dive in on the Deshaun Watson situation, and discuss if not him (unlikely) who... and how? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It's time for a big move, like a franchise shifting move. Denton Day (@TheDentonDay) explains why the Washington Football Team needs to go throw the kitchen sink at Houston and get Deshaun Watson. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

On this episode of Rile’d Up. Tiffany and Allana are joined by award-winning broadcaster, Kelsey Nicole Nelson. Washington has officially been given the number 19 pick in the 2021 draft. Nelson sees the team going after a wide receiver to help compliment Terry McLaurin and make the team appealing to free-agent quarterbacks if Heinicke does not remain the number one guy. Although this team made it to the playoffs there are some gaps on the offensive line, at the running back position, and in the secondary that will need to also be filled during the offseason. Nelson has covered a plethora of sports teams in the DMV area and spoke to the infectious nature of DC and all that this great area has to offer. Washington has so many intricacies and cultural beacons that have yet to truly be revealed to the world. Nelson believes that more teams need to tap into advertising more of the great things the DMV has to offer Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Against all odds, and despite (what seemed like at times seemed like) their best efforts, the Washington Football team is playoff-bound. While the arguments for their unworthiness are well-worn and have been oft-repeated over the last week, and indeed preemptively in the weeks leading up to the conclusion of the regular season, on this edition of The Cult Of Colt, we don’t apologize for doing what needed to be done in order to earn a division crown and to play at least another week of football in the postseason for the first time since 2015.Gumbi and I were joined by Jason Curtis (@JCBucsNation), a writer, and producer for Bucs Nation, SB Nation’s Tampa Bay Buccaneers blog. Jason, who is a very good hang, is the co-host of the North & South Podcast and the Host of the Commissioner’s Corner Fantasy Football show on the Bucs Nation Podcast channel.After letting Jason go on his way, Gumbi and I spent a few minutes of our time to reflect on the Eagles contest and the gripes (of the particularly loud variety from our friends up in New York) that the game, and indeed Washington’s division title, should be considered in some way illegitimate. We wholeheartedly disagree with this assessment and suggest that perhaps winning only six games and hoping for a little bit of help is not the best way to earn divisional supremacy. We’ll be looking forward to Washington on Saturday night, and won’t let the nay-sayers prevent us from enjoying what was earned — there will be time for season retrospectives once the season is over — but for now, we’re in full playoff mode.

The Washington Football team has a big game ahead of them. They go up against Philly on Sunday, and luck needs to be on their side. This team has endured many obstacles, from Haskins to Coach Rivera beating cancer, and making it to the playoffs would be a huge win for the organization. Washington has put themselves at a 50 percent chance of making it to a playoff appearance, therefore a win in Philly is imperative. In this episode, Tiffany and Allana are joined by a rising star in film and television, Ryan Reeves. Reeves shared playoff scenarios and stressed the importance of a win on Sunday. Despite how far Washington goes, if they are able to solidify a playoff spot, it would be rather impressive. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

It wouldn’t be a Washington Week 17 without a little bit of drama, right? After failing to get the job done in week 16 over the Panthers, the WFT needs a short memory to get right back after it with one more shot to punch their ticket to the postseason. Unfortunately for them, with the cancellation of the annual Mummer’s Parade (look it up) the Philadelphia Eagles aren’t the only ones who have a “no-hat rule” this week.To that end, on this edition of the Cult of Colt, Gumbi and I were joined by the gracious and talented Brandon Lee Gowton. You may know Brandon as the Manager and Editor-in-Chief of Bleeding Green Nation, co-founder of BGN Radio, and co-host of The SB Nation NFL Show (also, he’s on Cameo!)Despite coming from a “rival” NFC East blog (though it’s obviously more of a “peer” site,) Brandon is very much the realist when it comes to the Eagles and the disappointment that they have caused this year. Whereas we might look at the Eagles last three seasons and see more playoff appearances that Washington has had in over a decade, Brandon pulled no punches and has taken a “burn it down and salt the earth” approach, maintaining that the Super Bowl honeymoon period is very much over. To get a sense of where things are for Philly and their fans, Brandon’s “11 Things I Think” piece from this week is a must-read.Of course, we talked a fair amount about the quarterback(s) situation — theirs and ours, and how all things considered no one is terribly thrilled with the state of affairs. While Washington gets prepared for Jalen Hurts, who is beginning to build confidence in his play and the fanbase’s confidence in him, Brandon believes that the Eagles defense senses blood in the water, and it’s not just coming from Alex Smith’s leg. While Carson Wentz is very much on everyone’s mind, and Brandon sees no easy solution to some very expensive roster problems that GM Howie Roseman has gotten his team into.Even with their playoff hopes dashed by the Cowboys in week 16, Brandon believes that the WFT is going to face a highly-motivated Eagles squad, no matter how much it would benefit all parties involved (save for the Cowboys and their fans.)After letting Brandon go about his way, Gumbi and I took some time to do a mini post-mortem on the Dwayne Haskins Jr. era. Gumbi offered a full retrospective and detailed the downfall from the beginning of the end to the last straw. While I certainly don’t disagree with the final outcome and knew it was only a matter of time, I can’t help but hope everything turns out okay for a local kid who clearly has some growing up to do.Thanks again to Brandon for his time, and of course his cheesesteak recommendations.

Time to say goodbye to Dwayne Haskins. The Washington Football Team officially released Haskins. Allana and Tiffany are back with another exciting episode of Rile’d Up. The duo unpacks why Washington decided to dismiss the quarterback. In this conversation, Matthews expressed that he’s happy to see Haskins leave in order to get Washington back on the map to win a Super Bowl in the future, hopefully. Matthews reminds Allana and Tiffany that Haskins has had multiple chances and is not producing. He also delved into how Haskins has conducted himself off the field, which became another red flag. He also evaluated free agency prospects like Cam Newton or Carson Wentz, rather than attempting to take another quarterback late in the draft. Matthews is excited to see what’s next for Washington and hopes that Haskins will use this as a learning opportunity.

There are a lot of things worth celebrating these days as it relates to the WFT: Chase Young and Brandon Scherff being named to the Pro Bowl, Ron Rivera's completion of cancer treatment, the return of Alex Smith to the football field, and of course being on the precipice of a division title. Unfortunately, as they are wont to do, the WFT made some big waves off the field this week in a way that casts a shadow over these would-be bright moments. Following yet another Washington Post report on Dan Snyder's misdeeds and Dwayne Haskins... stimulus package, on this edition of the Cult Of Cult, we ask why can't this team get out of its own way and make it easy to be a fan, even in the best of times?

Tiffany and Allana had to “put their money where their mouth is” in this episode of Rile'd Up. The pair were task with defending both Ron Rivera and Alex Smith against their guests’ pessimism. Rivera is looked at as a shoo-in for coach of the year and the Segment's Fred Nettles believes that when it is all said and done Brian Flores will be signaling to Rivera to “hold his beer.” He spoke to the elementary program that Flores has turned into an 8-5 team, however, he was reminded of the short amount of time Rivera has taken to turn Washington into a potential playoff team. Things got even more interesting when the topic of Alex Smith’s impact arose. With the Seattle Matchup approaching and the race for the NFC East still pursuing, Washington will need to pull out all the stops. T Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
