Plus, the Knicks lose at home as Jalen Brunson lands in a walking boot, Scott Boras drops his latest Alonso alliteration, and the station promo tees up Giants/Packers with an old-school “meet and beat.”

A loaded Thursday on Boomer & Gio. Hour 1 opens with a tribute to beloved New York hockey writer Larry Brooks, followed by a heated debate on Aaron Glenn's attitude toward the media. Jerry Recco's update includes Mike Kafka's first comments as interim head coach, Brian Burns on whether he let Brian Daboll down, and Jameis Winston fired up to start in “the greatest city in the world.” The guys also hit Russell Wilson's demotion reaction, AJ Brown telling fantasy owners to drop him, the Knicks' loss at MSG, and Scott Boras' alliterative pitch for Pete Alonso. They close the hour with the station's old-school “meet & beat” Giants/Packers promo. Hour 2 breaks down the Disney vs YouTubeTV standoff on earnings day, Gio admitting he watches regular YouTube more than anything else, and more from Mike Kafka, who says he remains tight with Brian Daboll. The crew reacts to Michael Penix Jr. revealing he doesn't have many teammates to lean on during tough days, plus more Knicks reaction and a note that Drew Brees will be on the call for Packers/Giants. Hour 3 starts with Boomer referencing Netflix's James Garfield content before Gio veers into a BTK documentary. The focus shifts to Jets–Patriots tonight with Justin Fields expected to start despite ugly performances. The guys question Fields' future, assess the Giants turning to Jameis, and consider Joe Schoen's job security. Jerry's update features Drake Maye, Mike Kafka, Russell Wilson, and Matt LaFleur answering job-related questions. Terry Bradshaw compares Tom Brady to Otto Graham, the Knicks lose again, and the hour ends with Gio staying in NYC for a Dunkin' event and a caller asking why the Giants' defense looks gassed. Hour 4 begins with stunned callers questioning how the Jets have one takeaway and zero interceptions through nine games. Calls roll in about Kafka's future, Fields vs. Jameis tonight, and Garrett Wilson's status. Jerry's final update hits Stefon Diggs' nor'easter uniforms, Brian Burns' honesty, AJ Brown's fantasy football comments, and more Knicks injury updates. The Moment of the Day is the Giants–Packers “meet & beat” promo. The show wraps with Gio predicting the Jets get crushed — and rooting for it — while Boomer says Thursday night games always stay close.

Hour 2 kicks off with Boomer & Gio digging into Disney's major earnings day as their standoff with YouTubeTV continues. Gio admits he watches regular YouTube more than anything else, sparking a debate about how people actually consume TV now. Jerry Recco returns for an update—but only after the guys roast him for still having an actual antenna at home. They revisit Mike Kafka's comments about staying close with Brian Daboll, then react to Michael Penix Jr. surprisingly admitting he doesn't really have teammates to lean on during tough days. The Knicks drop their first home game of the season at MSG, Scott Boras delivers another alliteration-filled pitch on Pete Alonso's free agency, and the hour wraps with a preview of Packers/Giants featuring Drew Brees on the call alongside Adam Amin.

Hour 3 opens with Boomer diving into Netflix history docs on James Garfield, which quickly sends Gio into a wild pivot on the BTK killer. From there, attention turns to Jets–Patriots tonight, where Justin Fields is expected to start despite some brutal performances this season. The guys question whether Fields has any future here and discuss the Giants turning to Jameis Winston while Joe Schoen's job status hangs in the balance. Jerry Recco returns with an update featuring Drake Maye ahead of Jets/Pats, more from interim Giants coach Mike Kafka, and Russell Wilson reflecting on close losses under Brian Daboll. Matt LaFleur is asked if he's coaching for his job, Terry Bradshaw questions whether Tom Brady is truly the best, and the Knicks' home streak ends with a loss to the Magic. The crew also debates whether Jerry would move to Memphis for an NBA play-by-play job. The hour closes with Gio needing to stay in NYC for a Dunkin' event, and a caller asking why the Giants' defense looks exhausted late in games.

Hour 4 opens with stunned callers reacting to the Jets defense having just one takeaway and zero interceptions through nine games. The conversation shifts to whether Mike Kafka could realistically keep the Giants' head coaching job, and who's more likely to deliver tonight Justin Fields or Jameis Winston. With Garrett Wilson unlikely to play, the guys wait for clarity from Rich Cimini. Jerry Recco's final update includes Stefon Diggs hyping up the Bills' nor'easter uniforms, Brian Burns on whether he let Brian Daboll down, Russell Wilson continuing to say all the right things, and AJ Brown addressing his “drop me in fantasy” comments. The Knicks fall to the Magic at MSG, and Jalen Brunson leaves in a walking boot. The Moment of the Day spotlights the throwback Giants–Packers promo calling the matchup an OG “meet & beat.” To close the show, Gio predicts the Jets get crushed tonight and admits he's rooting for it while Boomer reminds everyone that Thursday night games tend to stay close thanks to the short week.

On this episode of Throw Up Tackle, THE! Mario Washington, The DOK, and LJ unleash the boo birds on a chaotic week across the sports universe. They roast the Dallas Mavericks' front office after Nico Harrison's firing and the lingering insanity of trading Luka for AD while Cooper Flagg is miscast as a point guard.

From there it's buyout season—Brian Kelly vs LSU and why, if you write a $54 million clause, you better honor it—and a heated look at the YouTube TV vs Disney/ESPN standoff that's holding fans' games hostage and poking at a bigger question about the future of live sports.They wrap with sharp NFL and CFB takes on the Chiefs, Lions, Broncos, Seahawks, Cowboys, Colorado and more, plus the weekly picks, sidebars, lemon pepper wings, and just enough slander to keep everybody honest.Check out Throw Up Tackle on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/@fourcastmediaCheck out Throw Up Tackle on our website at http://www.pushplaypods.com/throwuptackleBe sure to like and subscribe!

   While President Trump is posting about not allowing fat people into the United States including ex pats like Rosie O'Donnell, healthcare is in focus everywhere after this silly shutdown.  But lost in the shuffle was a giant win on election day one week ago in Texas.  They amended their constitution and it's glorious.    The state of Kansas will no longer allow a silly grace period for stupid mail in voting.  After meeting with business leaders hoping to land the Royals at Crown Center I came away with a strong feeling Overland Park is in the lead.   Chiefs players, including Josh Simmons are back at Arrowhead today.  Mahomes' former coach Mike Kafka is the new interim coach for the Giants.  Gambling scandals are rocking sports but the blame is misguided.  I'll straighten that out for ya.  And Jessica submits an all time Final Final.

Gio can't understand why Joe Schoen survives after he and Brian Daboll “failed on an epic level.” Boomer and Gio break down Schoen's shaky draft record, the rumors that Jaxson Dart was a Daboll guy, and whether keeping Schoen makes any sense. Jerry's update features Tiki Barber's thoughts on the Daboll firing saying the culture in the building did change — plus highlights from Eagles-Packers and the Rangers' rare home win. In the final segment, the guys debate whether Mike Kafka deserves his shot to lead the Giants for the rest of the season.

Art breaks down the latest coaching decision for the New York Giants and what the future might bring.

BT and Sal react to the breaking, yet inevitable, news that the New York Giants have fired Head Coach Brian Daboll with immediate effect. They call the move "the humane thing to do" after a 2-8 record and a history of catastrophic fourth-quarter collapses. The hosts argue that the decision was necessary to stop the toxic internal narrative and allow the team, and young quarterback Jaxson Dart, to move forward. The discussion pivots quickly to the future: Mike Kafka has been named the interim head coach. The guys demand that Defensive Coordinator Shane Bowen must be the next domino to fall, calling his continued employment "disgraceful." They also speculate on whether GM Joe Shane will follow, and which established coach—like Bill Belichick or Mike McCarthy—the Giants must target to finally end their "merry-go-round of nothingness."

BT & Sal react to the breaking news: Brian Daboll has been fired as Giants head coach, with Mike Kafka named the interim. The discussion quickly turns fiery over the baffling decision to keep both GM Joe Schoen and DC Shane Bowen, a move Sal calls "horrendous." Tierney argues the Giants are a "predictable disaster," repeating the mistake of an uncoordinated timeline, while Sal believes the job remains "very appealing" due to the potential of Jaxson Dart. The hosts debate who is more "culpable" for the losing—Daboll or Schoen—and play an old, fascinating clip of Jon Gruden grilling Dart about his "reckless" playing style. The segment closes with a heated discussion on potential replacements, weighing the risks of Bill Belichick and the "high ceiling" of Jon Gruden against the safer, more successful track record of Mike McCarthy.

BT & Sal react LIVE to the breaking news: Brian Daboll has been FIRED as the Giants' head coach! The segment kicks off with the "Call of the Day," where a fan passionately calls for Daboll's job, only to be followed by the announcement of his dismissal. The hosts erupt over the Giants' "unacceptable" three years and the pattern of blowing leads, highlighting the team's loss of identity. They debate the drive that led to rookie QB Jaxson Dart's injury and the inherent risk of the RPO offense Daboll favored, questioning the sustainability of an attack predicated on the young quarterback's legs. The Giants now turn to interim head coach Mike Kafka, leaving BT and Sal to ponder who will be the next one with the "broad shoulders" to change the losing franchise.

BT & Sal react to the breaking news that Brian Daboll has been fired as the New York Giants head coach, effective immediately, with Mike Kafka named the interim. The hosts agree it was the "humane thing to do" after another fourth-quarter collapse and a disastrous season, arguing that his record—not bad luck—is the reason. The fiery discussion quickly pivots to the next logical steps, demanding that defensive coordinator Shane Bowen be fired immediately, calling his continued employment "patently offensive." They also debate General Manager Joe Schoen's future, with Sal stating "He'll be next" but expressing concern over ownership's commitment to a full clean-house approach. The segment covers the immediate optics of the firing and what the Giants need to do for a true, long-term rebuild.

1. Week 6 Takeaways-DKrom: Chiefs offense looks better than they have in ages*....and they have a major upgrade on the way in Rashee Rice -Hal: Can't wait until the trade deadline because everything's so jumbled up right now2. Week 6 Honors-GOAT of the Week (DKrom: Dave Canales, Hal: Justin Herbert)-Dunce of the Week (DKrom: Aaron Glenn, Hal: Jerry Jones)3. On a scale of 1-10 (1 being no panic at all, 10 being hide the kids), how panicked are you that the impatience and impulsive decision making of Titans ownership will ruin the promising talent that is Cam Ward? Also, each of the last four QB's selected at first overall (Trevor Lawrence, Bryce Young, Caleb Williams, and now Cam Ward) have had their head coach fired during their rookie campaign. On that same scale of 1-10, how alarming of a trend is this becoming for young QB's? 4. According to NFL insider Benjamin Allbright, a big name to watch for the Titans HC vacancy is Giants OC Mike Kafka. Keep in mind, Kafka worked together with Mike Borgonzi in Kansas City, where he was the QB's coach and had a very influential role in the development of Patrick Mahomes. And as these past three weeks have shown, he has done an excellent job with Jaxson Dart thus far. How good of a hire would Mike Kafka be? 5. Truth or Exaggeration (Division Race Edition)-There is a path for the Giants to win the NFC East-The NFC West will be a two-team race between the Rams and the Seahawks-The Falcons are a legit threat to the Bucs in the NFC South-The winner of the Packers/Lions game on Thanksgiving Day will win the NFC North-The Patriots should be the betting favorite to win the AFC East-If their offense continues the improvement it has shown the last two games, the Texans will leapfrog the Colts and Jaguars to win the AFC South -Thanks to their red hot offense, Bo Nix's sophomore struggles and the Chargers injury issues, the Chiefs will win their 10th consecutive AFC West title -The Ravens will rally back from their four-game deficit and win their third consecutive AFC North title 6. Week 7 Game Picks-Lock of the Week (DKrom: Chiefs over Raiders, Hal: Panthers over Jets)-Upset Special (DKrom: Saints over Bears, Hal: Bucs over Lions)-Steelers at Bengals-Rams at Jaguars-Dolphins at Browns-Patriots at Titans -Eagles at Vikings-Colts at Chargers-Giants at Broncos-Packers at Cardinals-Commanders at Cowboys-Falcons at 49ers-Texans at Seahawks7. Bold Predictions-DKrom: Giants sack Bo Nix 10 times, 7 of them by Abdul Carter (including a strip-sack fumble late in the fourth quarter to set up the game-winning FG)-Hal: Baker Mayfield throws 5 TD to 5 different people, and leads his team to another last-second game-winning FG8. Challenge Flags-DKrom: Chiefs and other teams favored by a TD or more...DO NOT PLAY DOWN TO YOUR COMPETITION!!!!-Hal: Cam Ward...keep your chin up and look to Drake Maye and Caleb Williams as an example of where you could be!!!!
