Podcast appearances and mentions of Dexter Lawrence

Solomon Wilcots makes the case that this is the best Bengals roster of the Burrow era, crediting a front office that traded a top-ten pick for Dexter Lawrence and went ten deep on the defensive line with Jonathan Allen, Boye Mafe, and Shemar Stewart. He wraps with the secondary upgrades — Bryan Cook and Kyle Dugger at safety — and full confidence the 2026 Bengals are built for a Super Bowl run. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Building the Giants all-time defense means gaining Lawrence Taylor, Michael Strahan, Harry Carson, Sam Huff, Emlen Tunnell, and decades of franchise greatness — but it also means sacrificing real Giants legends who do not fit on the final roster.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.Who belongs on the New York Giants all-time defense?The strongest answers start with Lawrence Taylor and Michael Strahan, but the real debate comes after the obvious names. Drew and Rob work through the defensive line, linebackers, secondary, and special teams while comparing Hall of Fame résumés, unofficial sack totals, championship moments, positional value, and era context.The defensive front turns into one of the toughest parts of the list. Andy Robustelli's case depends partly on sack totals from an era before sacks were officially tracked. Osi Umenyiora, Leonard Marshall, George Martin, and Jim Katcavage all bring different versions of Giants pass-rush history. Dexter Lawrence opens a modern-versus-old-school defensive tackle debate next to names like Arnie Weinmeister, Rosey Grier, and Keith Hamilton.At linebacker, Harry Carson and Sam Huff carry the historical weight, while Jessie Armstead, Brad Van Pelt, and Carl Banks force the question of how many great Giants linebackers can realistically fit. The secondary brings another layer with Erich Barnes, Dick Lynch, Mark Haynes, Jason Sehorn, Corey Webster, Emlen Tunnell, Jimmy Patton, Spider Lockhart, and Terry Kinard.Special teams closes the roster with Pete Gogolak, Sean Landeta, and Zak DeOssie. Gogolak's case is about more than field goal percentage because his soccer-style approach changed kicking history. Landeta brings the punter résumé, and DeOssie gives the Giants a clean long snapper choice with a unique family Super Bowl connection.This episode is not just about naming legends. It is about deciding what matters most: peak dominance, longevity, awards, championships, franchise records, playoff moments, or the way Giants fans remember a player.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

The Cincinnati Bengals created salary cap space this week by restructuring quarterback Joe Burrow's contract, a move that longtime observers say reflects an unusually aggressive offseason for the franchise. According to multiple reports, the restructuring frees up approximately $10 million in salary cap space and comes after the Bengals acquired All-Pro defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence in a blockbuster trade. The move is notable because Cincinnati has historically avoided restructuring contracts to push salary cap charges into future seasons. “I think one of the biggest things for me, quite frankly, is that it shows this continues to be an atypical offseason,” Local 12 digital sports columnist and editor Richard Skinner said to Mike Petraglia of CLNS Media. “From trading for Dexter Lawrence to overspending at a couple of positions of need, it continues that trend.” While some of the newly created cap space helps account for Lawrence's contract, Skinner said the move also gives the Bengals flexibility to address other roster needs, including adding a veteran linebacker or offensive tackle. The restructuring came just minutes before the Bengals announced the signing of second-round draft pick Cashius Howell, officially putting all seven members of the team's 2026 draft class under contract. Unlike a pay cut, a restructuring converts salary into a signing bonus that can be spread across future years of the contract. “They did the best of both worlds,” Skinner said. “It gives you the flexibility to still add to the roster today without just kicking the can way down the road.” Petraglia noted the Bengals could have freed up nearly twice as much cap space but chose a more measured approach. “By converting only enough salary to free up the $10 million, I think the Bengals showed a layer of restraint,” Petraglia said. “It's the best of both worlds for the Bengals in this particular case.” The discussion also highlighted several emerging storylines from organized team activities. One is veteran safety Kyle Dugger, who joined Cincinnati after stops with New England and Pittsburgh. Skinner described Dugger as a potentially valuable veteran presence and a candidate to contribute in defensive packages featuring three safeties. The pair also discussed rookie linebacker Boye Mafe, whose versatility could allow defensive coordinator Al Golden to deploy more varied fronts featuring players who can rush the passer or drop into coverage. Both agreed that Lawrence remains one of the most intriguing additions heading into training camp. “I cannot wait to see Dexter Lawrence line up against somebody else,” Skinner said. “He's just going to overwhelm some people at times.” Mandatory minicamp begins next week, when coaches and media will get a clearer picture of how the Bengals' revamped roster fits together heading into the 2026 season.

Solomon Wilcots breaks down five reasons to be fully optimistic about the 2026 Bengals, starting with the front office's $132.7 million free agency haul headlined by trading a top-ten pick for Dexter Lawrence, a move without precedent in Cincinnati history. He credits Zach Taylor's offense for five straight top-ten seasons in scoring and efficiency, arguing the three-year playoff drought was purely a defense problem, and praises Joe Burrow as a generational talent just 47 TDs from breaking Andy Dalton's all-time franchise record. The episode's most passionate stretch is Solomon declaring Ja'Marr Chase the greatest receiver in Bengals history, above every historic predecessor. He closes on a defensive front he counts as ten deep, anchored by Lawrence, BJ Hill, Jonathan Allen, Boye Mafe, and new safety Kyle Dugger. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The sight of Bengals stars Ja'Marr Chase and DJ Turner at organized team activities this week is helping fuel the energy around a team that believes it has made major offseason upgrades, according to Local 12 Digital Sports Columnist and Editor Richard Skinner. Skinny joined Mike Petraglia of CLNS media for a podcast Wednesday and discussed how Chase, Turner and Tee Higgins all taking part in OTAs sends a message that the team is “all in” after an offseason that included a major addition on defense. “It adds energy and enthusiasm,” Skinner said of the attendance at the voluntary workouts. Turner, who is entering the final year of his contract, said he wanted to be present because he wants to be part of the team's new vibe. Skinner said Chase's appearance also stood out, even though the star receiver had previously suggested he would be present for mandatory minicamp. Higgins took part in some of the seven-on-seven work and made a highlight-reel catch over defensive back Dax Hill. The offseason additions on defense, including the trade for defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, have raised expectations in Cincinnati, Skinner said, and the team's early workouts appear to reflect that confidence. Skinner also said the Bengals' OTAs are helping show how the team plans to use some of its personnel, including tight end Erick All, who is returning from serious knee injuries. Skinner said All moved well in drills and may be part of more two-tight-end sets if he remains healthy. The Bengals continue OTAs next week before moving into mandatory minicamp.

The show opens with the blockbuster A.J. Brown trade from the Eagles to the Patriots, as Chris Russell breaks down the compensation, the impact on Philadelphia's wide receiver room, and what the move means for the Washington Commanders and the broader NFC East. He expands the discussion to include ripple effects from other major player movement, including Dexter Lawrence, arguing that losing elite talent affects divisional competitiveness far beyond the six head-to-head matchups, while also diving into the financial realities of dead cap implications tied to major trades like A.J. Brown and Myles Garrett and pushing back on the idea that NFL teams can easily manipulate the salary cap without consequences. The conversation then turns to fan experience, with Russell reacting to the Commanders' new season ticket perks and advocating for more affordable, fan-friendly stadium pricing modeled after other franchises. From there, he revisits broader league-building debates, including alternatives to tanking in the NBA following recent lottery changes, before shifting into lighter but pointed commentary on viral social media reactions to league controversies. The show closes with a trio of major storylines: a hypothetical trade sending Chet Holmgren to Washington in exchange for Anthony Davis and its roster-building implications, ongoing scrutiny surrounding Carter Hart and the Vegas Golden Knights, and insight on Chig Okonkwo's development role within the Tennessee Titans' offense.

The hour opens with the blockbuster trade sending A.J. Brown from the Eagles to the Patriots, as Chris Russell breaks down the compensation involved, what it means for Philadelphia's wide receiver room, and how the move could impact the Commanders and the NFC East moving forward. The discussion expands to include the ripple effects of both the A.J. Brown and Dexter Lawrence trades, with Chris arguing that losing star players can affect rival teams far beyond the six division games on the schedule. From there, the conversation turns to the financial side of roster building, as Chris examines the dead cap charges associated with the A.J. Brown and Myles Garrett trades and pushes back on the common belief that NFL teams can endlessly manipulate the salary cap without consequences. The hour wraps up with reaction to the Commanders' newly announced season ticket holder benefits, as Chris reviews the perks and discusses how the organization continues to strengthen its relationship with fans.

The A.J. Brown trade from the Philadelphia Eagles to the New England Patriots sent shockwaves through the NFL and significantly alters the landscape of the NFC East. Chris Russell breaks down the compensation involved in the blockbuster deal, how it reshapes Philadelphia's wide receiver room, and what it means for the Eagles' offensive outlook moving forward. The discussion then shifts to the impact on the Washington Commanders, with Russell arguing that losing star players such as Brown in Philadelphia and Dexter Lawrence from the New York Giants benefits Washington far beyond the four divisional matchups those players would have directly affected.

The Giants are trying to be smart with Andrew Thomas, Malik Nabers, and Darius Slayton, but every cautious update raises the same problem: this roster may only work if the key pieces are actually available. Joe Schoen's multi-year extension adds another layer, because now the Giants are betting that better coaching and better health can finally make his roster look different.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.The Big Question: Are the Giants being smart with injury management, or are they already exposing a September problem? The answer is probably both: it is only May, but Andrew Thomas, Malik Nabers, and the offensive line are too important to ignore when the updates start piling up.Drew and Rob opened the show with the Joe Schoen extension after the Giants announced a multi-year deal for their general manager. Drew questioned the timing and the message after several rough years, player relationship concerns, and the Dexter Lawrence fallout, while Rob pushed back on how much of Schoen's evaluation has to be tied to the coaching staff he had in place before John Harbaugh arrived. The debate came down to whether this season finally separates Schoen's roster decisions from Brian Daboll's coaching issues, or whether the Giants just rewarded a front office that still has not won enough.The main injury conversation centered on Andrew Thomas. John Harbaugh said the Giants are working Thomas back and managing his reps, while Thomas said the goal is being ready for September. Drew's concern was not that a veteran is being managed in OTAs; it is that Thomas has an injury history and the entire offensive line changes if he is not right. Rob pushed the “it is May” side of the argument, but both agreed that Marcus Mbow getting left tackle reps matters because the Giants need a real answer if Thomas misses time again.Malik Nabers became the next big concern after Harbaugh described his ACL recovery as a tough, grinding process and said the Giants will be ready whether he is back right away or not. Drew and Rob debated the mental side of a first major injury, how much training camp or preseason work Nabers should get, and why rushing him back would be a bad gamble even if everyone wants him ready for Week 1. Darius Slayton's sports hernia surgery, Jalin Hyatt leaving practice early, Roy Robertson-Harris leaving early, and several veterans sitting out added to the larger question of whether the Giants are simply being cautious or already dealing with a real availability issue.The episode also touched on Andrew Thomas' comments about Dexter Lawrence moving on, Ar'Darius Washington getting slot work with Dru Phillips out, Harbaugh calling OTAs a “fast rehearsal,” the rookies needing to “hit the gas,” and John Mara being spotted at practice. The tone of the show stayed right where Giants fans are right now: hopeful because the coaching staff feels more serious, but not ready to trust anything until the wins and health actually show up.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

John Harbaugh gave Giants fans the edge they have been begging for, but calling out the Cowboys also raises the pressure on Big Blue to back it up in Week 1.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.The Big Question: Is John Harbaugh's Cowboys callout good for the Giants? It can be if the harder standard shows up in practice, discipline, and Week 1 execution, but until the Giants beat Dallas when it counts, it is still just a receipt waiting to be cashed.Drew and Rob react to Harbaugh's Town Hall comments about wanting the Giants to be good enough to “kick the Cowboys' ass,” CeeDee Lamb answering back with “lol that's cute,” and why this Week 1 Sunday Night Football matchup already feels personal. The Cowboys have controlled this rivalry for too long, but Jaxson Dart finally gave Giants fans something to point to after last year's win, and Harbaugh is clearly not interested in tiptoeing into the NFC East.The conversation then shifts to Dexter Lawrence, and Harbaugh's blunt “he can go live his life” answer after Lawrence's exit. Drew and Rob get into why Dexter's departure still bothers Giants fans, why the lack of a real goodbye matters, and why Harbaugh's comment felt like a direct defense of the players who actually want to be in the building.From there, the show turns into a bigger debate about the new Harbaugh standard. Kayvon Thibodeaux says things are different. Jaxson Dart says Harbaugh's intensity and attention to detail are obvious. Drew and Rob like the tone, but they are not ready to buy another offseason “vibes are different” story until wins follow.Dart's playing style also becomes a major topic. He says he knows the most important thing is staying on the field, but he also made it clear that on third or fourth down, he is still willing to go through a defender. That leads to the obvious Giants fan plea: slide. Keep the edge, keep the toughness, but stop giving away your availability.The defense gets a long look too, especially Dennard Wilson being compared to Wink Martindale. Kayvon pointed out the similarities, Brandon Brown talked about pressure from different alignments, and Brian Burns praised Wilson's black-and-white, no-BS coaching style. Drew and Rob explain why the aggression is exciting, why Arvell Reese could fit that world, and why Wilson still has to avoid the worst parts of the old Wink experience.The episode closes with early Giants record predictions, the Dolphins joint-practice news, OTAs beginning, and why the guys are not falling for every fake offseason hype story just because somebody looked good in shorts.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Solomon Wilcots is joined by Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic to break down the behind-the-scenes story of Cincinnati's blockbuster trade for Dexter Lawrence — a move that required Bengals ownership to do something they've never done before: deal a top-10 pick for a proven veteran while taking on significant future salary cap obligations. Dehner reveals how B.J. Hill served as the secret agent in landing Lawrence, recruiting his longtime friend the night before the trade was finalized, and explains why the three-year, $70 million deal is a genuine bargain for a player motivated to prove himself in a change of scenery.

SVP and Steve recap a big first weekend of the NBA and NHL Playoffs. The best thing of the past week was the Sabres claiming their first playoff win in 15 years.
