• Bruce Boudreau fired – Did the Capitals give up on coach Bruce Boudreau?  Was his message lost in the Capitals locker room and how much did his relationship with Alex Ovechkin have to do with his dismissal.  The guys weigh on the news.
• Jack Del Rio fired – Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Jack Del Rio was the NFL’s first firing.  The former Ravens linebackers coach struggled to establish an offense with his teams and made fatal mistakes that led to his demise.  Zach, Matt and Pat give their take on what went wrong.
• Should Andy Reid be fired by the Eagles – At 4-7, the dream team in Philadelphia couldn’t look more like a joke.  Does Andy Reid deserve to be fired or does to injury of Michael Vick keep around once again.  The guys take both sides of the debate.
• Should Randy Edsall be fired as Maryland’s head football coach – After finishing 2-10 with the Maryland Terps in just his first season, many are calling for Randy Edsall’s job.  Pat, a Maryland alumnus, gives his perspective on what went wrong and how to fix it.

• NFL playoff picture – With NFL playoff standings beginning to take shape, the guys give their Division and Wild Card winners and predict the Conference’s number one and two seeds.
• NFL locks of the week – Time to lay it on the line.  The guys looked at the spreads for week 13 and gave their “lock of the week.”  The loser has to record a video of himself eating a full tomato for next week’s show. Their tiebreaker game is over/under on Colts vs. Patriots (48 points)  Pat: Cowboys -4.5 @ Cardinals (Under), Matt: Broncos -1.5 @ Vikings (Under), Zach: Packers -7 @ Giants (Over)
• Stevie Johnson mocks Plaxico Burress – To wrap the show the guys talked about Stevie Johnson’s touchdown dance which mocked Plaxico Burress shooting himself in the leg.  Pat and Zach thought it was hilarious, but that it ultimately hurt the Bills as they went on to lose to the Jets 28-24.
