Send us a textThe Giants are making headlines again, from potential big-name acquisitions to deep roster analysis and emotional stories from Gmen legends, Drew and Rob break it all down with insight and clarity that only passionate Giants fans can bring.Kicking things off is a heated debate over whether the Giants should pursue Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander. While his elite talent is undeniable, he's missed 34 games over the past four seasons and carries a high price tag. At 28 years old with a solid 75.2 PFF grade, is he worth the investment, or are the risks too great?We also dive into Gabe Davis' free agency tour after visiting the New York last month. With the Saints now in the mix and other contenders like the Steelers and 49ers circling, is there still a shot the Giants bring him in?CBS Sports' Jared Dubin says safety Jason Pinnock was NY's biggest offseason loss—but Drew and Rob disagree, pointing to the signing of Jevon Holland as an upgrade and a sign of a productive offseason.NFL analyst Bucky Brooks sparked a new conversation around Thibodeaux, placing him in “purgatory” between potential and production. Despite racking up 21 sacks and 6 forced fumbles, questions remain about whether Kayvon can make the leap in a new-look Giants defense stacked with talent like Sexy Dex, Burns, and rookie Abdul Carter.In a dramatic off-field storyline, former Giant and ESPN analyst Chris Canty is at the center of a landlord controversy involving a rent-stabilized tenant in Manhattan. With legal battles underway, the story paints a messy picture of high-profile real estate battles in NYC.Eli also revisited one of the most painful moments in his career: his 2017 benching in favor of Geno Smith under then-head coach Ben McAdoo. His emotional comments about the uncertainty and heartbreak give fans a glimpse into the human side of a Giants legend.Finally, Drew and Rob spotlight two former Giants—Deandre Baker and Tae Crowder—who've made waves in the UFL. Both players are pushing for NFL comebacks after standout seasons, but is there any real shot they return to the Giants or even the league?If you're a diehard fan looking for real talk, this is your go-to New York Giants podcast.

Then, Joe gives his 2024 NFL Coaching Rankings, they play contender vs pretender, & finish a pro football six-pack (22:42). Finally, they end the show by giving their Week 15 Overreactions (1:02:28), & SO much more!

Hour 1 – During the first hour of WEEI Football Sunday, Arcand and Scheim have an intense argument about Marcus Jones. Listen to find out who Fitzy sides with. First, Mego and Arcand argue about the origin of Danger Zone, Ben McAdoo's favorite song. Then, do the Patriots have a shot at the Dolphins? Neither team had their starting QB in the game last time they played. No one thinks the Patriots have a chance.

(00:00) The crew kicks off the third hour, live from Plainridge Park Casino, joined by NBC Sports Phil Perry talking about Drake Maye and Jacoby Brissett.  (13:28) Zolak, Bertrand, and Phil Perry get into this Sunday's game and the need to show progress and reassure that the product is getting better. (21:11) The guys continue discussing the Patriots performance and their openness to play Drake Maye in light of paying Jacoby Brissett $8 million and Alex Van Pelt being in the hot seat.  (33:17) Zo, Beetle, and Phil Perry conclude the third hour discussing Drake Maye, Alex Van Pelt, and what to expect this Sunday.

(00:00) Zolak and Bertrand, alongside Albert Breer, question whether the Patriots are starting Drake Maye because he's ready or if they are simply tired of Jacoby Brissett. (11:17) The guys along with Albert Breer jump back in wondering if the Patriots are making a mistake by starting Drake Maye against the Texans.  (22:20) The crew with Albert Breer get right back to it wondering how the news on Maye getting the starting spot got out to the players.  (30:08) Zo and Beetle with Albert Breer close out the third hour wondering if Ben McAdoo could be the answer for the Patriots lackluster offense.

(0:00) Greg Bedard of BostonSportsJournal.com joins the show to discuss the latest with the Patriots. (17:03) The Patriots' offensive play design was unacceptable again against the Dolphins. (24:43) 3 Up and 3 Down from the Patriots loss to the Dolphins.  (33:10) Could the Patriots replace Alex Van Pelt with Ben McAdoo to fix the offense?

(00:00) Zolak and Bertrand kick off the third hour discussing the Bruins season opener tonight and the likelihood of Swayman playing.  (9:29) The guys dive into the loser mentality surrounding the Patriots and the possibility of Ben McAdoo taking over play calling.

(0:00) Gasper and Murray open up the final hour by discussing the rookie quarterbacks around the league, and comparing it to the Patriots coaching staff not playing Drake Maye in the first preseason game. (14:45) Questioning is Jerod Mayo is letting Ben McAdoo and Alex Van Pelt plan out Drake Maye's development. (25:54) Should Van Pelt have actually been the OC that the Patriots targeted? (41:05) 5 Questions that have nothing to do with sports.

Les Bowen joins the show for a trip down memory lane and an exploration of alternate timelines. What happens to the Eagles if they trade for Russell Wilson and sign Allen Robinson instead of keeping Jalen Hurts and trading for A.J. Brown? What if Carson Wentz never tears his ACL in 2017? What if Jeffrey Lurie gets his wish and hires Ben McAdoo in 2016? What if Andy Reid never hires Juan Castillo as defensive coordinator?  Zach Berman and Bo Wulf join Les for a fun Sliding Doors exercise of recent Eagles history. Learn more about your ad choices.

(00:00) Zolak & Bertrand start the third hour by questioning whether the Celtics are ready to go after beating the Heat in Round 1 of the playoffs. (12:06) The crew goes back and forth on Ben McAdoo having a heavy hand in Drake Maye's development and Milliken's food order disaster. (23:41) We go back and forth on Hummingbirds and food ordering services. (31:40) The guys finish the day by listening to why Philip Rivers was more impressed with Bo Nix than Drake Maye.

There are many different voices in the Patriots front office. There are many different voices on this show. Swayman or Ullmark? Drake Maye or Jayden Daniels or JJ McCarthy? No one is in agreement on anything. Ownership probably likes Jayden Daniels more because he is more marketable, but AVP and Ben McAdoo could want Drake Maye. Arcand wants to trade down, but Jones and Mego are team Drake Maye, their hillbilly king.

In this episode, Greg Bedard is joined by Tom Silverstein to discuss the New England Patriots' rebuild from a Green Bay Packers perspective. They explore Eliot Wolf's background and readiness for a significant role, why he lost out to Brian Gutekunst for the Packers' GM position, and the contributions of coaches like Alonzo Highsmith, Alex Van Pelt, Ben McAdoo, and Jerry Montgomery. They draw parallels between the Packers' rebuild in the early 1990s and the current state of the Patriots, discussing the "Wolf way" of team-building, attitudes toward free agency and the draft, and what Patriots fans can expect in the coming offseasons.

Eliot Wolf, Alex Van Pelt, Alonso Highsmith, and even Ben McAdoo are all Patriots coaches who have happened to either work for the Browns or the Packers. Mego says, "this is the The great Midwestern Migration. They're all coming east!" Why do the Patriots have an obsession with the 2018-2019 Cleveland Browns? Also, news breaks that Xavier Tillman has been traded to the Boston Celtics for two second round picks very far in the future.

In Part 1 of this two-part interview, we speak with former Giants assistant coach Pratik Patel, who was once the lead nutritionist on the Ben McAdoo, Pat Shurmur, and (briefly) Joe Judge coaching staff. Pratik takes us behind the scenes on what goes into the planning of workloads and more.

Gio is fully supporting Brian Daboll. He is not Ben McAdoo. He is not Joe Judge. Gio is confident that the Giants can beat the Commanders and eventually get back to 6-6.

Gio is throwing his full support behind Brian Daboll. He said he is not the next Joe Judge. He is confident they will beat the Commanders, regardless of who is playing QB. He will not bail on Daboll after he was the Coach of the Year last year. That was not a fluke. Gio said he's not Ben McAdoo, he's not ‘an idiot'. Gio thinks best case scenario they will be 6-6 heading into the bye. Realistically they can win 4 of the next 6, if not 5. The Giants faced a lot of good teams so far and now their schedule gets a little softer. It simply doesn't make sense for the Giants to be this bad so it can't possibly continue. Boomer is calling this a ‘silver lining Wednesday'. Boomer thinks Gio is ‘manifesting' positivity for the Giants. Jerry is here for his first update and starts with Aaron Rodgers on with Pat McAfee talking about being on the sideline of the Jets game. When he asked Saleh, he said, ‘we need ya buddy'. Boomer said there is no way Rodgers is playing this season no matter what he says. Daniel Jones was on ‘Up & Adams' and gave us an update on his neck. Jerry Jones talked about Dak taking some ‘licks' on his runs. Micah Parsons is tired of people trashing Dak and the Cowboys. Trevor Lawrence updated us on his knee. The Phillies beat the Diamondbacks 10-0 with homers by Trea Turner and Kyle Schwarber. He hit 2 last night. Max Scherzer pitches for the Texas Rangers tonight. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about Wednesdays being reaction days to Aaron Rodgers going on McAfee. Aaron Rodgers may think he can come back and play this year but that seems impossible. The Jets will need to tell him ‘no' for the first time ever if he tells them he wants to play this year. Boomer doesn't think he will push to play this year.

Hour 1 Gio is throwing his full support behind Brian Daboll. He said he is not the next Joe Judge. He is confident they will beat the Commanders, regardless of who is playing QB.

Boomer doesn't think he will push to play this year.  Hour 2 There was a female fan at the Cowboys/Chargers game that went viral and people were speculating that she was either an actress that was hired to root for the Chargers for tv purposes, or she was artificial intelligence and not actually there. She is a real person that's a season ticket holder and really into the Chargers. Gio couldn't believe how much this was covered yesterday. Joe Benigno and Fireman Ed are very close now. They used to be enemies. Gio finds it bizarre that Rob Saleh is friendly to and hangs out with Joe Benigno. Jerry returns for an update and has audio from Aaron Rodgers on Pat McAfee talking about his benchmarks for returning from his achilles injury. Gio & Jerry don't understand his whole ‘manifestation' stuff. Did he manifest getting injured? I thought he was manifesting a great season with the Jets. There are rumors that Caleb Williams wants to have a piece of ownership of the team that drafts him. Daniel Jones was on with Kay Adams but doesn't really answer anything. ‘When things get thick, some people shrink' according to Mike Tomlin. The Phillies beat the Diamondbacks 10-0 to take a 2-0 series lead. Kyle Schwarber hit 2 more home runs. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about spreads this week and knockout pool picks. Not so easy this week. There are not many good games this week.  Hour 3 Gio has been trying to keep it positive this morning. Boomer said the Giants success last year kept them from really rebuilding completely. It was more of a retooling and it hasn't worked out. They gave big money to a few players based on last year and it's not working out. A few callers compare Brian Daboll to Robert Saleh. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Aaron Rodgers on with Pat McAfee. He would not put a timetable on his return. Al Michaels was on with Jimmy Kimmel and they talked about Taylor Swift and how Michaels was unable to describe her during the game. She is going on a World Tour starting in November. Evan Roberts said he cuts his nails in his car. The Phillies beat the Diamondbacks 10-0 to take a 2-0 series lead. Max Scherzer will pitch tonight for the Texas Rangers. In the final segment of the hour, there is a Boomer & Gio Live show meeting today. Al's idea is ‘Schwartzy the Snowman' for Peter Schwartz.  Hour 4 We continued talking about ideas for Peter Schwartz at the B&G live show coming up in December. A caller wants to give props to Matt Martin for 900 games played. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Aaron Rodgers on Pat McAfee and Daniel Jones on with Kay Adams. Michael Parsons is tired of people trashing his quarterback and his team. He wants to be on the Olympic flag football team. Jerry has highlights from the Islanders win last night. The Moment of the Day involves ‘Schwartzy The Snowman'. In the final segment of the show, Gio is betting against Max Scherzer and the Texas Rangers tonight because Scherzer sucks in big games and the Astros are desperate.
