Podcast appearances and mentions of mike mccarthy

BT & Sal dive into the New York Giants' head coaching search, sparked by a caller who demands a total "clean house." The hosts debate whether interim coach Mike Kafka should get a serious shot, or if the Giants need to prioritize an experienced leader. Tierney makes a case for proven coaches like Mike McCarthy (who won games without Dak Prescott) and Sean McDermott, while dismissing younger coordinators like Chris Shula. Sal argues that former Dolphins coach Brian Flores is the best defensive option if they go that route, despite the lawsuit. They fiercely question the logic of passing on an experienced, successful coach like Zac Taylor (Super Bowl run) for an "unknown" coordinator. Finally, the discussion shifts to the team's appealing assets—a young quarterback, Malik Neighbors, and a potential top draft pick—leading to the question: Do the Giants trade their high pick for more capital, or take a top talent?

BT & Sal dive into a fiery discussion covering coaching chaos and major league free agency. In football, they debate the next Giants Head Coach, agreeing that the organization needs "stability" and experienced leadership like Mike McCarthy or Sean McDermott, making the "unknown" risk of promoting Kafka or hiring an untested coordinator like Chris Shula unacceptable. On the diamond, the focus is on the Yankees' offseason priorities. They clash over whether to pursue Kyle Tucker or Cody Bellinger (Sal prefers Tucker, BT values Bellinger's versatility). The biggest debate centers on a potential trade for Corey Seager. BT is willing to take the chance on the two-time World Series MVP despite his injury history, believing his October prowess is worth the risk. Sal vehemently opposes the move, seeing Seager's recurring hamstring issues and massive $190M contract as a recipe for a "Stanton disaster" and proof the Yankees continue to chase players whose best years are behind them. They also scrutinize Cashman's comments on the outfield, calling his contingency plan "unacceptable."

BT & Sal dive into the Giants' most critical storyline: the return of QB Jaxson Dart and the interim head coaching debut of Mike Kafka. They debate whether Kafka's new role is his best chance to distinguish himself as a viable head coaching candidate and if he'll move away from the "idiotic" play-calling that exposed Dart to injury under Daboll. The hosts slam the mindset of fans who want to "put Dart in bubble wrap," arguing that playing is essential for his development and competitive spirit. The conversation also covers the perennial optimism of some Giants fans, questioning how they can feel "close" when the team is definitively 2-9. The hosts discuss Brian Cashman's annual charity sleep-out, wondering how he handles a "dangerous world" and nighttime bathroom breaks. Finally, they look at the coaching carousel, debating if Kafka should stay on if a "big boy" like Sean McDermott or Mike McCarthy is hired, or if he should use his improved resume to find a head coaching or coordinator job elsewhere.

On today's show, Pat, AJ Hawk, and the boys preview tonight's Thursday Night Football game between the Bills and Texans, and look ahead at this weekend's slate as they set the table for week 12 of the NFL season. Joining the progrum to chat about tonight's game, and some of the biggest storylines around the NFL is NFL on Prime color commentator and the voice and face of college football, Kirk Herbstreit.

Next, CB for the Miami Dolphins fresh off a game sealing INT in Madrid, Jack Jones joins the show to chat about this Dolphins team as a whole, playing for Mike McDaniel, and why things seem like they're trending upward. Lastly, 12 year NFL veteran at QB, ESPN NFL analyst/QB guru Dan Orlovsky joins the show from the side of the highway to give his thoughts on JJ McCarthy and if the Vikings are in trouble, or if they'll be okay long term.

Mike McCarthy vs the Field for a Giants coach to take them to the playoffs

In this episode of He's a Giant, hosts Monte and Sal discuss the fallout from Brian Daboll's firing, Mike Kafka's interim role, Joe Schoen's uncertain future, and potential head coaching candidates like Mike McCarthy, Chris Shula, and Jeff Hafley. They then dive into a deep scouting breakdown of five top wide receiver prospects for the 2026 NFL Draft, evaluating their strengths, weaknesses, grades, and fit for the New York Giants.Carnell Tate (Ohio State): 00:33:01Makai Lemon (USC): 00:46:36Jourdyn Tyson (Arizona State): 00:58:14Denzel Boston (Washington): 01:14:18Chris Bell (Louisville): 01:24:28Please Rate and Subscribe!Follow Us:@HesAGiantPod@montecri5to@queens_guy

Hour 4: Evan and Shaun take calls on possible future Giants coaches and Shaun, Loogy, and Evan debate the merit of Mike McCarthy. That and much more.

BT & Sal are incensed by the latest reports on Giants rookie Abdul Carter, who was benched for a drive due to repeatedly sleeping/missing meetings and a walkthrough. They slam the lack of accountability that started under former head coach Brian Daboll and criticize Carter's flimsy social media defense that he was "recovering." Sal argues that Mike Kafka's light punishment (a drive on special teams) was too weak and a failure to establish necessary control over a locker room "littered with losers." The conversation shifts to the Jets, reacting to the breaking news that Tyrod Taylor will start at quarterback over Justin Fields. BT and Sal express zero expectations for the move but agree it's necessary to evaluate the vertical threats like rookie TE Mason Taylor. The segment also covers potential Giants head coaching candidates, with BT backing Brian Flores as the necessary disciplinarian and Sal supporting Mike McCarthy. Finally, they debate the dramatic possibility of trading Dexter Lawrence to shake up the spiraling organization.

BT & Sal kick off the show with breaking news that the Jets are benching Justin Fields for veteran Tyrod Taylor in Week 12. Sal concedes it's the right move, not for wins, but to finally see what the Jets' young players can do with a "vertical passing threat," even if his overall expectations are "zero." This leads into a heated discussion on the Giants' spiraling lack of accountability, focusing on the shocking report that Abdul Carter was repeatedly sleeping in team meetings and walkthroughs. The hosts debate whether interim head coach Mike Kafka's light punishment (benching Carter for one drive) was too "weak" or a "gentler way" to discipline a Gen Z star, then pivot to the Giants' inevitable head coach search, with Sal stumping for Mike McCarthy and BT doubling down on the no-nonsense approach of Brian Flores.

On today's show, Pat, AJ Hawk, and the boys preview tonight's Thursday Night Football game between the Jets and Patriots, and wonder if this game is going to be a national spotlight for the Patriots officially being back. Joining the show to discuss the breaking news that CFP chair Mack Rhoades has stepped down and what implications that carries/what comes next is ESPN College Football reporter/insider, Heather Dinich. Later, Super Bowl Champion, former Head Coach of the Green Bay Packers and Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy joins the progrum to preview tonight's TNF game, chat about managing rookies at this point in the season, his thoughts on the MVP race, the Monday Night game between the Eagles and Packers, and much more.

I sprinted downstairs after that Eagles loss, fuming like never before—eight straight quarters of pure offensive dysfunction that rivals the Mike McCarthy firing era. This episode unleashes raw frustration over Jordan Love's panic throws, dropped passes, boneheaded penalties, and an offense handed victory on a silver platter only to choke it away. We're diving deep into the embarrassment, from wide-open receivers ignored to that final sequence encapsulating the nightmare. Ranting on the offense's epic failures: Jordan Love's unnecessary sacks, Josh Jacobs' mental lapses, and receivers like Wicks dropping sure catches while Watson shines as the lone bright spot. Debating Matt LaFleur's hot seat—play calling isn't the issue, but if players keep quitting on him, he's gone, complete with a wild imagined locker room firing speech. Praising the defense for holding strong and handing opportunities the offense squandered, plus why betting against the Packers is paying off big. Bold take: This level of sloppiness isn't fixable without major changes—eight quarters of looking drunk, stoned, and concussed demands accountability. This episode is brought to you by PrizePicks!

Joe Schoen should be following Brian Daboll out of the Giants' facility. Mike McCarthy is not the right guy for the next Giants HC.

Has the NFL already passed Matt LaFleur by? On this week's episode of the Repack, Tex is joined by Paul Noonan and, later, Justis Mosqueda to discuss an abysmal offensive performance by the Green Bay Packers in their 10-7 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Why won't LaFleur adjust his offensive philosophy? Does he even understand when his unit is actually efficient? And why in the hell does this team insist on keeping two kickers on the roster but playing the one who's hurt? It's a bad sign when your season evokes memories of the 2015 and 2018 Mike McCarthy teams, but here we are. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

BT & Sal launch into a fiery debate over the Giants' messy front office, fueled by Ian O'Connor's report suggesting Joe Schoen's return is not a "certainty" and that his retention for the coaching search may be due to the health of John Mara. The hosts are infuriated that Schoen was spared while Daboll was fired, pointing to the GM's 20-40-1 record over four years and the Giants' "lack of awareness." They discuss the need for a "truth teller" to break the team's cycle of mistakes and debate whether a low-risk veteran coach like Mike McCarthy or a high-upside gamble is the right move. The segment is punctuated by the "Bald Faced Lie, Bald Faced Truth" baseball predictions (Diaz to the Dodgers? Tucker and Bellinger as teammates?) and Sal's ticket debacles, including a jinxed free Rangers game that was pulled last minute, right before the team finally broke its home scoring drought!

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 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."

Send us a textMoments ago, multiple outlets confirmed that Giants head coach Brian Daboll has been fired following the team's devastating loss to the Chicago Bears. The move comes with the team sitting at 2-8, and ownership reportedly frustrated by repeated late-game collapses, locker-room tension, and lack of progress developing rookie QB Jaxson Dart.Drew & Rob break down everything you need to know about this massive shake-up:Why ownership pulled the trigger now instead of after the season.The internal chaos that's been brewing behind the scenes.How this affects GM Joe Schoen's future.Early names already linked to the job — Bill Belichick, Mike McCarthy, Jesse Minter, Kliff Kingsbury, and more.What this means for the players, the rebuild, and the Goofball Army's patience.Stay locked in for wall-to-wall coverage — full reaction, candidates breakdown, and what's next for Big Blue.

Mike McCarthy could be a logical Giants Head Coach

East Coast Eric joins the AVG Cheese to add some optimism. How can we not beat lesser teams? Is an old friend (Mike McCarthy) the answer? How can we blame a defense that give up 102 yards passing? All this and more in Episode 224

BT & Sal erupt over the New York Giants' spiraling dysfunction, demanding John Mara fire both Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen, arguing that keeping one or neither would be a "worst-case" scenario given the team's miserable three-year record. They weigh veteran coaching options like Mike McCarthy and Bill Belichick against the risk of a "hot coordinator." The hosts also react to the earth-shattering breaking news that the Jets have traded star CB Sauce Gardner to the Colts for two first-round picks, immediately bringing on NFL Insider Brian Baldinger. Baldi gives his candid film breakdown of Sauce's recent play and the implications of this bold move on the Jets' culture and future. Finally, they tackle the New York Knicks' four-and-three start under Mike Brown, debating whether the Karl-Anthony Towns trade has solved their problems and expressing frustration with the team's "evaluation mode" mindset despite championship aspirations. Would you like me to elaborate on the Giants' coaching options or dive deeper into the implications of the Sauce Gardner trade?

Send us a textGiants fans, it's Week 2 and the rivalry is back—New York Giants at Dallas Cowboys! We break down everything you need to know heading into this huge NFC East matchup. The Giants got tough injury news with linebacker Micah McFadden undergoing foot surgery, leaving his return uncertain until later this season. On the brighter side, left tackle Andrew Thomas missing practice this week isn't cause for panic—it was a planned step in his rehab, not a setback.What about the Cowboys? Dallas had one of the most dramatic offseasons in the NFL.
