Podcast appearances and mentions of Andrew Thomas

Offensive tackle Andrew Thomas speaks to the media Tuesday from the Quest Diagnostics Training Center.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Send us a textGiants fans, this episode is a full ride through the chaos surrounding Big Blue right now. We start with rookie linebacker Abdul Carter getting benched for the opening drive against the Packers, the confusing reports about a missed walkthrough, and his public response taking accountability while pushing back on the narrative. We talk about what this means for the standards in the building, how young players respond to being called out, and whether this is a blip or a warning sign for a future leader on defense.From there, we shift to interim head coach Mike Kafka. He says it's “status quo” and that the staff is attacking this week with fresh ideas, but what does that really mean for his job security? We break down how the offense has looked under his direction, how he has handled Jaxson Dart, and whether he's auditioning for a full-time role or just stabilizing things until ownership makes its next big decision.We also dive into Dart's situation as he works through the protocol and is encouraged to adjust the way he runs to protect his long-term health. We compare him to other aggressive quarterbacks, discuss how much you can realistically change a young player's style, and what kind of balance the Giants need between playmaking and durability.Then it's all about the coaching carousel. Names like Matt Nagy, Arthur Smith, and Chris Shula are starting to appear as possible candidates if the Giants make another head coaching change. We walk through what each type of coach would bring to this roster, how they would mesh with stars like Malik Nabers, Andrew Thomas, Brian Burns, and Dexter Lawrence, and what kind of leader this locker room needs next.Finally, we go deep on the draft and what happens if the Giants land the second overall pick. Using trade simulations, we go through packages from teams like the Browns, Saints, Jets, Vikings, and Steelers that would allow the Giants to move down, add premium picks, and still land high-impact players. With young talent already in place, including Jaxson Dart and Cam Skattebo, we ask whether trading down for a massive haul is the smartest way to fill multiple holes and accelerate the rebuild.Thank you for listening and for supporting 2 Giants Goofballs: New York Giants News & Updates.

BT & Sal tear into the state of the New York Giants following their latest loss, focusing on the team's ongoing spiral to a 2-7 record for the third straight year. The Call of the Day slams Defensive Coordinator Shane Bowen's "absolute joke" of a scheme, pointing to All-Pros like Christian McCaffrey running "untouched" for touchdowns and players like Andrew Thomas "quitting" on a play. The hosts criticize Brian Daboll for deflecting blame onto the "collective group" instead of holding individuals accountable, arguing that his approach is clearly "not working." They conclude that the Giants are crippled by a combination of subpar coaching and underperforming players, leading to the same, frustrating result year after year.

Send us a textThe kicker situation has become a recurring nightmare for Big Blue. Gano has dealt with three straight injury-plagued seasons: a groin injury in 2025, a hamstring issue in 2024, and season-ending knee surgery in 2023. Jude McAtamney hasn't eased concerns, going just 2-for-4 on field goals and missing three extra points in the past two weeks. The Giants even signed Younghoe Koo recently, but will that be enough to stop the bleeding?Possible replacements include Zane Gonzalez, Austin Seibert, Cade York, and Rodrigo Blankenship — each with their own ups and downs. The Giants can't afford to waste more games on special teams errors, especially when the offense is finally clicking. Over the last four games, the team is averaging 25.3 points per game compared to just 17.3 with Russell Wilson earlier in the season. Jaxson Dart has been efficient with 791 yards, 7 touchdowns, and a 89.3 QB rating in his four starts. Cam Skattebo continues to grind with over 100 yards from scrimmage per game, while Wan'Dale Robinson and Daniel Bellinger are emerging as steady targets. The offensive line's turnaround led by Andrew Thomas and Jermaine Eluemunor has been key in protecting Dart and opening lanes for Skattebo.Defensively, though, the prevent defense has been anything but. In the final drive against Dallas, stars like Dexter Lawrence and Abdul Carter were on the bench, leaving Beau Brade on the field as the defense softened — and it cost them the game. The Cowboys tied it with a field goal, and the Giants' chance at a 4-3 record vanished in overtime.We also recap every game from NFL Week 7, highlighting standout performances, shocking upsets, and what they mean for the playoff picture across the league. From quarterback duels to defensive meltdowns, we break down all the key storylines you need to know.Show Everyone You are a Goofball By Checking Out Our Merchandise Storehttps://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/Support the Show on Buy Me a Coffee - Kill Our Livers Buy Us Beers!https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballsSubscribe to Our YouTube Channel - Best Way to Watch Our Contenthttps://www.youtube.com/@2giantgoofballs?sub_confirmation=1Become a Member of the YouTube Goofball Channel for Perkshttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UC-tiLjkehiawtN-v6gMFViA/joinFollow us On Facebookhttps://www.facebook.com/2giantgoofballsFollow us On Xhttps://x.com/2giantgoofballsPrefer Audio Only?

Offensive tackle Andrew Thomas speaks to the media Sunday after the Giants' loss to the Broncos.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

BT & Sal take a call from a fired-up Giants fan who is "geeking" for Sunday's game in Denver, confidently predicting Big Blue will "put belts to ass on these Broncos!" The hosts fuel the hype by zeroing in on the key matchup of the game: Giants star Andrew Thomas against the league-leading sack master Nick Benito, who has already trash-talked the Giants' "delusional fan base." The guys are eager to see if Benito can back up his words or if Thomas will send a message. They also discuss the need for the Jets to win for the sake of becoming less relevant and getting out of the spotlight.

BT and Sal bring the heat with NFL insider Brian Baldinger for an electric breakdown of the Giants and Jets. They dissect the Giants' surge behind rookie Jaxson Dart, questioning if they've truly closed the gap in the NFC East, and if Denver's ferocious defense can contain his unique running ability. On the flip side, the trio unloads on the Jets' offensive struggles, debating whether Justin Fields' late-game hesitancy is fixable and if coach Aaron Glenn's late-game decision-making cost them a win. Baldinger gives a scorching film-based critique on everything from the Giants' Andrew Thomas' impact to the Jets' collapsing offensive line and why a QB switch to Tyrod Taylor was warranted. This is a must-listen reality check for every NY football fan

The Giants franchise Left Tackle hints at playing on Sunday

Patrick Mahomes said being 0-2 is a great opportunity to show people on Sunday night football what the Chiefs are really made of. Mahomes has lost 3 games in a row for the first time in his career. Gio said it seems impossible that they would lose to the Giants and go 0-3 to start the season. We still don't know for sure if Andrew Thomas is playing. Gio is not expecting the same Giants offense we saw in Dallas. Boomer said the Chiefs offense is not that great, but Gio cautioned it's still Patrick Mahomes.

Patrick Mahomes said being 0-2 is a great opportunity to show people on Sunday night football what the Chiefs are really made of. Mahomes has lost 3 games in a row for the first time in his career. Gio said it seems impossible that they would lose to the Giants and go 0-3 to start the season. We still don't know for sure if Andrew Thomas is playing. Gio is not expecting the same Giants offense we saw in Dallas. Boomer said the Chiefs offense is not that great, but Gio cautioned it's still Patrick Mahomes. Gio is wearing a Dua Lipa hoodie he got yesterday. Who has more commercials, the Manning brothers or the Kelce brothers? Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Tua interception that was costly as the Bills beat the Dolphins. Mike McDaniel spoke after the game and sounded like a doofus. Russell Wilson loves playing at MetLife because he won a Super Bowl there. Eli Manning was on Peter Schraegger's podcast and talked about helping Jaxson Dart, who took it too literally. The Yankees beat the Orioles 7-0 without hitting a HR. Chris Russo asks Ian Eagle about travel while doing all these games and Mike Francesa eulogizes Robert Redford. In the final segment of the hour, Gio got a box in the mail to ‘open on air on football Friday'. It's a Vikings male cheerleader bobblehead.

Hour 1 We started with the local baseball teams and who they will likely play when the playoffs come (assuming the Mets make it). We also talked about the Bills winning again last night, with Boomer noting they have not had a turnover in 8 straight games. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with the Yankees beating the Orioles 7-0, and they did it without a HR. Jonah Tong struck out 8 as the Mets beat the Padres. Clayton Kershaw announced he is retiring after this season. We heard Suzyn & Dave Sims arguing about saves in Pittsburgh vs saves in NY. Tua threw a pick on the Bills 21 yard line as the Dolphins lost to the Bills. We heard from Mike McDaniel after the game. Quinnen Williams said the players made a pact to not be as bad as they were against the Bills. Carson Wentz is ready to go for the Vikings as they take on the Bengals. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about some of the NFL matchups this weekend. We talked about the 40 starting Jets quarterbacks since Joe Namath left. Hour 2 The Buccaneers will be in their creamsicle uniforms on Sunday when they play the Jets. Is this going to be a Todd Bowles revenge spot? Aaron Glenn has been using a lot of corny cliches like ‘big ships turn slow' and ‘it's not instant coffee'. Boomer said you have to be lucky enough to have a great QB to be successful in the NFL. Anthony in Belleville called in and talked about his Chargers and Gio's old mullet. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Bills beating the Dolphins. Tua threw a pick late in the game on the Bills 21 yard line. Tyreek Hill talked about being 0-3. The Yankees shutout the Orioles 7-0 without hitting a HR. Jonah Tong struck out 8 as the Mets beat the Padres and Pete Alonso had another HR. Clayton Kershaw announced that this will be his last season. In the final segment of the hour, Gio said everyone seems to be turning on the Eagles. Al Michaels seemingly took a shot at them on the broadcast last night. The NFL told officials to watch the Tush Push because they have been offside in the past. Gio's wife asked for a Super Bowl prediction and he said Eagles/Ravens. Boomer thinks the Packers are the team to beat in the NFC and the Ravens in the AFC. Hour 3 Patrick Mahomes said being 0-2 is a great opportunity to show people on Sunday night football what the Chiefs are really made of. Mahomes has lost 3 games in a row for the first time in his career. Gio said it seems impossible that they would lose to the Giants and go 0-3 to start the season.

In the final segment of the hour, Gio got a box in the mail to ‘open on air on football Friday'. It's a Vikings male cheerleader bobblehead. Hour 4 We started with a preview of Jets/Bucs and took a call from a guy driving down there. Gio told him not to sit near the cannons as they will be going off all game. A caller went to the wrong airport as he confused Charlotte and Charleston. Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with the Yankees beating the Orioles 7-0 without hitting a HR.

Art gets us ready for the New York Giants week two match-up in Big D versus the Dallas Cowboys.

In this week's episode, Steve and Brad set the stage for a pivotal stretch in the Sounders' season. They preview Saturday's home clash against LA Galaxy and look ahead to next Tuesday's showdown at Inter Miami, breaking down the key matchups and what's at stake in this final stretch of the regular season. With the Western Conference standings tightening, the hosts dive into where the Sounders could – and should – finish as the postseason approaches.The episode also features an in-depth interview with goalkeeper Andrew Thomas.

Anthony and Alex discuss the Giants' latest injury updates.

Callers are sick of the boring Giants offense. If the Giants don't win this week in Dallas, this has the makings of a 3-win season. They have the Chiefs and Chargers after that. A caller calls Andrew Thomas a ‘mutt' for not playing hurt.

We talked about the Giants quarterback situation and how they have to try hard not to screw up Jaxson Dart. It seems like the only chance Daboll has of keeping his job is starting Dart and him playing well. Callers are sick of the boring Giants offense.

The Jets also had a fumble on a kickoff return that really hurt them. Justin Fields made a lot of good throws. What will Brian Daboll do at quarterback?

It seems like the only chance Daboll has of keeping his job is starting Dart and him playing well. Callers are sick of the boring Giants offense. If the Giants don't win this week in Dallas, this has the makings of a 3-win season. They have the Chiefs and Chargers after that. A caller calls Andrew Thomas a ‘mutt' for not playing hurt. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the sounds of the Steelers beating the Jets with a 60 yard FG. Mike Tomlin described him as wanting to ‘bang from deep'.

The Yankees took their series from the Blue Jays while the Mets lost theirs to the Reds. In the final segment of the hour, a fan shoved DeAndre Hopkins so Lamar Jackson shoved him back. Gio thinks moronic fans should keep their hands off the players. Hour 3 As fun as the Jets game was, you are still pulling your hair out because that's a game they should have won. And it was Aaron Rodgers, no less, coming in and throwing 4 TDs. The Jets were the better team for all 4 quarters, but as Aaron Glenn said, there are no moral victories. And the stadium was full of Steelers fans. The Giants on the other hand looked like they have the last four years, not good. A caller said he felt out of place at MetLife as a Jets fan. Gio can't believe people still like to go to games. With the Giants, once again, we are watching the same thing we've been seeing year after year. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Jets loss against the Steelers. Aaron Glenn talked about the fumble and said players won't remain on the team if they have costly turnovers.

In the final segment of the hour, a car somehow jumped both the eastbound and westbound lanes of Sunrise highway. The driver was having a ...

Hour 1 The Mets beat the Tigers again and Nolan McLean pitched great again after having a rough start to the game. Boomer would start him first in a playoff series. Max Fried pitched well against Houston last night. We also talked about Astros pitcher Framber Valdez purposely crossing up his catcher and hitting him in the chest with a fastball. Jerry is here for his first update of the day, but first Boomer compared McLean to Tom Seaver, so that's where we're at this morning. The Tigers' broadcasters seemed very impressed with his pitching. The Yankees won in Houston with a Trent Grisham grand slam. In the final segment of the hour, the Giants have listed Jaxson Dart as the backup quarterback to Russell Wilson instead of having Jameis Winston as the number two. Boomer likes the move. We also talked about Andrew Thomas' injury. Hour 2 Rich Cimini tweeted that Vivid Seats claims there will be 48% Steelers fans at the Jets home opener on Sunday. Gio thinks that's a bad look for the opening game. Steelers fans do travel well, but almost half the stadium? A caller said Evan Roberts sold his Jets tix for the Steelers game. Callers said they sell their tickets because MetLife is the worst stadium in the NFL. Jerry returns for an update and compares Al Dukes to Adam Schein in their takes on the upcoming Bills season. The agent for Micah Parsons was on with Pat McAfee and said he did not tell Jerry Jones to stick the contract offer up his butt. Dan Campbell is excited to be going to Lambeau for week one. The Mets won again in Detroit as Nolan McLean had another impressive outing. The Yankees beat Houston as Jazz Chisholm hit two home runs. Rafael Devers homered against Colorado and the benches cleared because he admired it. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer wondered which college head coaching job is the toughest.

The Mets got another great performance from Nolan McLean and they beat the Tigers. In the final segment of the hour, we got Boomer & Gio stickers for our laptops when on TV. We also talked more about Micah Parsons getting an epidural. Steve in Atlanta checks in and says his wife gave birth ‘on all fours'. Hour 4 Earlier in the show, Boomer said that Mets pitcher Nolan McLean reminded him of Tom Seaver, and we thought that was a bit over the top. All the old people are calling, agreeing with Boomer. Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with the Mets win in Detroit, including the Tigers' broadcasters who seemed amazed by McLean. The Yankees won in Houston as Trent Grisham hit another grand slam. Dianna Russini said Alijah Vera Tucker suffered a potentially serious injury and could miss significant time.
