Kevin and Thom discuss the Josh Norman and DJ Swearinger comments about Redskins’ fans. They also discuss the Skins’ biggest competitor in the NFC East…is it Dallas or Philly? Other topics include some Wizards, Tom Wilson/Caps, and whether or not the Rams and Chiefs will be allowed back into the country after their game in Mexico City.

Kevin recaps the Redskins 16-3 win in Tampa in great detail. He brings in JP Finlay/NBC Sports Washington to talk about the game and Josh Norman’s comments. He goes “Around the NFL” recapping Dallas’ win in Philadelphia and the rest of Sunday’s games. He finishes up the show looking back at Maryland’s loss at Indiana on Saturday along with some discussion on the bigger college games of the day as well. He also spends some time on the Wizards and the Jimmy Butler trade.

Cooley and Kevin talk 2nd half of the season for the Redskins….reasons to be optimistic and the opposite.  They preview the game in Tampa and talk about the need for Alex Smith to play much better on Sunday.  Kevin finally got to his “Coaching Blunders” for the week, has 11 “Smell Test” picks, and went through some of the biggest games of the football weekend.  Andy Pollin joined the show for a look back at some memorable Skins-Bucs games and they finished up with predictions on the game. 

It’s a Sports Fix Thursday and Thom Loverro is in. They start the show by discussing the Capitals’ win over the Penguins on Wednesday. They then move to taking a look at the best and worst from the Redskins in their first eight games of the season. Who was the best player? What was the worst moment? Plus predictions for the second half of the year. They talk about the latest news around Bryce Harper, including that the Dodgers offered the Nationals Yasiel Puig for him during the season. Scott Van Pelt joins to talk about Maryland, college football and more. They wrap up with NFL Power Polls.

Doc Walker calls in to talk Redskins. Chelsea Janes from the Washington Post calls in to talk about the story she broke on the Nats offering Bryce Harper $300 million over 10 years. Gary Williams then called in to talk about the issues at Maryland the last few months as well as the Terps’ win last night over Delaware, Duke’s impressive debut, and some Skins and Ravens too. Kevin finished up with NFL Buy or Sell. 

Thom is in and the show starts with a recap of the Cowboys’ loss to the Titans last night. The conversation turns to the significance of the Redskins’ game in Tampa on Sunday. Despite the injuries, Kevin thinks this is the moment that many of the organization’s off-season decisions must prove to be right. ESPN’s John Keim joins the show to explain who will play on the O-line Sunday. Are any teams capable of supplanting the favorites in the NFC (Saints and Rams) and AFC (Chiefs and Pats)? That plus “are the Redskins doomed if they fall behind in a game”.
