Thom is in for a special Sports Fix Wednesday. They discuss Jay Gruden and Bruce Allen’s hot seat and Alex Smith’s stunningly bad performance. Charley Casserly joins to give his take on this week’s game and the season as a whole. They then ask what happens to the team if Adrian Peterson is injured. Thom gives his thoughts on the MLB playoffs plus Kevin’s Coaching Blunders.

Kevin breaks down the Redskins’ embarrassing loss to the Saints on Monday Night Football and compares it to other debacles in the past. His game recap includes very little good and lots of not-so-good. He eviscerates a confused defense and calls Alex Smith’s performance brutal. JP Finlay calls in from New Orleans to talk about what he saw in the Superdome last night. Kevin also discusses the back-and-forth on Twitter between Josh Norman and Michael Thomas. He also goes back to Jason Garrett’s 4th down decision to punt in overtime in the Cowboys’ loss to Houston.

It’s a big night for the Redskins, as they play on Monday Night Football. First, Kevin talks about the historic nature of tonight as he looks at where Drew Brees ranks on the all-time quarterback list. Then he goes Around the NFL, where he talks about the Browns, Rams, Vikings and more, plus he actually agrees with Jason Garrett’s decision. From there he segues into “Redskins Win If” where he breaks down what he needs to see from the players and the coach if the Redskins are going to come away with a big win today. Clinton Portis then joins to give his take on if the Redskins can win against CP’s childhood team. Following Portis, Kevin goes through Weekend DVR, where he talks Maryland/Michigan and the rest of the college football slate, and has something to say about the Braves win. Finally, Andy Pollin sits in to look back at the 2012 game against the Saints, and both give their predictions on the game.

Kevin kicks off the show by talking about the resurrection of the Patriots on Thursday night. A record number of 50+ point over/unders this weekend? Kevin discusses that. An intriguing NFL Sunday is previewed. Then Kevin turns towards the Caps 7-6 overtime loss with “Smokin” Al Koken. They discuss the first two games, as well as the banner ceremony from Wednesday night. After Al departs, Kevin answers a tweet about Redskins/Saints. Tim Murray then joins to preview Notre Dame/Virginia Tech and Maryland/Michigan, and the rest of the college slate. The show wraps up with Kevin giving out eight Smell Test picks, while talking about some other leans.

It’s a Sports Fix Thursday as Thom Loverro is in. Thom was at the Capitals game last night, and the two talk about the banner ceremony, something they both thought was done extremely well overall, and that doesn’t even include the big win. However, was there one big oversight in it all? Plus, what does Thom think of Tom Wilson’s 20 game suspension? After the Caps, they move on to the Redskins. Kevin thinks the Saints game is the biggest measuring stick game in years for the Redskins. Also, what’s going on with Josh Doctson? Greg Wyshynski joins to give his thoughts on the Caps night, and on Tom Wilson’s injury. Is the team poised to go “Back to back” as the fans were chanting last night? Before getting to Scott Van Pelt, Kevin and Thom talk about a column Thom wrote about the Lerners, particularly how it relates to Jayson Werth’s ring of honor induction. Finally, Scott Van Pelt joins for a lot of gambling talk. All that and more on today’s show.

Chris Cooley is FINALLY back with Kevin, and the show starts with the two of them chatting for nearly an hour. After talking about how much they missed each other, they discuss what Cooley has seen from the Redskins over the first three weeks. How has Alex Smith and the offense looked? Cooley goes position by position about who has stood out to him in September and what he sees for the rest of the year. This includes Adrian Peterson, the defensive line and its usage, as well as the rest of the defense. Also, they look over the NFC East and where the Redskins stand in the division. After Cooley, Kevin brings on Joe Beninati to talk about the opener for the Capitals. Did he ever think he’d get to see a banner raised like he’ll see today? Does the departure of Barry Trotz put a damper on the celebration even slightly? And what about Tom Wilson? Kevin finishes the show by touching on Tuesday’s NL Wild Card game, and responds to a message he received about Adrian Peterson.
