Week 1 of the NFL season produced the highest-scoring opening weekend in league history. DJ and Kelcey survived it — barely — and are back to make sense of everything. This week on the High Low Sports Podcast: the biggest overreactions from NFL Week 1, a full college football chaos recap headlined by Texas defeating Ohio State and the simultaneous implosions of Oregon and Oklahoma, the inaugural edition of Kelcey's Heisman Hierarchy, two Better Than the Rest MVPs, an upset pick powered by Outlier, and the top prop of the weekend. On the overreaction front, DJ goes all in on the theme of the weekend: offense is back. The NFL just posted its most explosive opening week in history. The Bears and Panthers combined for 91 points — Ben Johnson almost went for two to push it to 60. Kenneth Walker ran 173 yards on a Monday night and won fantasy leagues for people who were already asleep. Kelcey's overreaction: the New York Giants are legitimate. The trio of Nabers, Dart, and Scadaboo ran the ball directly down the Cowboys' throats all game. Isaiah Likely scored twice in his debut. Matt Nagy, Greg Roman, and Brian Callahan — three offensive minds who have each been fired from previous posts — somehow combined to produce one of the cleanest game plans of the week. In college football, Texas took down Ohio State in one of the great fourth-quarter comebacks of the young season, with Arch Manning leading the final drive. Oklahoma got humiliated at Michigan. Oregon looked unrecognizable. All three had been top-11 teams in the AP Poll. Now only Ohio State remains ranked, sitting at sixth after a five-spot drop. Kelcey's inaugural Heisman Hierarchy puts Darian Mensah of Miami at No. 1, Malachi Tony at No. 2, Arch Manning at No. 3 for that fourth-quarter performance alone, and Jeremiah Smith at No. 4 after a 9-138-2 showing despite two drops. Devin Dampier of Utah gets an honorable mention — worth watching as the season develops. For MVPs of the week, Kelcey goes Kenneth Walker on 23 carries for 173 yards and two scores. DJ gives the award to Bears right tackle Darnell Wright — who anchored a running game that averaged eight yards per carry to his side 65 percent of the time and never allowed a sack. The upset pick: Troy Trojans +26.5 at Missouri at plus odds. Five-and-one ATS in their last six road games. Nine of ten against the spread overall. Big spread, underdog, plus odds — the exact situation Outlier surfaces. The top prop: Kenneth Walker over 79.5 rushing yards. He just gave you 173 against Denver. The Colts allowed nearly 200 rushing yards to the Ravens and are playing on their own turf in Indianapolis. DJ is putting multiple units on this one.

We compare the Giants and Jets' ground success to the Chiefs' win, analyze Adam Schefter's report on Drew Brees nearly un-retiring for the Broncos' AFC Championship game, and review Mike Florio's explanation of why that couldn't happen. Next, we address Malik Nabers feeling unsure despite medical clearance, leading into Jerry's update featuring Ben Rice's tie-breaker, an Aaron Judge homer, and Howie Rose calling near-miss foul balls for Francisco Lindor and Pete Alonso. We round out the hour with sounds from the Chiefs beating the Broncos, Aaron Glenn evaluating Geno's Sunday performance, John Harbaugh on tackling Nabers, and a final look at Mets fans cheering Pete Alonso at the expense of booing their own pitcher.

The Giants stunned Dallas 28-20 behind Jaxson Dart, a physical offense and a dramatic return from Malik Nabers, whose status remained uncertain until the weekend. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down John Harbaugh's bizarre attempt to prove Nabers was healthy, the Giants' dominant ball control, Dak Prescott's costly interception and Tyrone Tracy's fumble that quickly buried him in the backfield rotation. The Jets also opened with a convincing 23-10 win, but Evan spots late-first-half mistakes from Aaron Glenn and Geno Smith that better teams could punish. Plus, the Sauce Gardner trade suddenly looks even sweeter if Indianapolis struggles, the Yankees' Subway Series win still leaves their AL East hopes hanging by a thread, and Cameron Scattabo's backflip sparks another celebration debate.

Malik Nabers' return came with one of the wildest stories of the Giants' opener, as John Harbaugh actually tackled him to prove his knee was ready for contact. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber break down Nabers' decision to play, his strong return and why Jaxson Dart's response to several big hits was another encouraging sign for the Giants. The Jets also cruised past Tennessee, but Evan was frustrated by Aaron Glenn and Geno Smith's messy end-of-half execution. The mistakes did not cost them against the Titans, but both hosts agree that kind of sloppy situational football has to disappear before the competition gets tougher.

Gio highlights Al's frustration over Malik Nabers considering sitting out despite being cleared by doctors and coaches. C-Lo returns for his final update with Nabers recounting John Harbaugh tackling him in walk-throughs to prep him for contact, followed by Joe Benigno arguing with Paul in Yonkers over Mets minor leaguers. After a Moment of the Day on upgrading your nugget game, the hour wraps up with a discussion on NFL teams building dome stadiums.

The Giants gained more than a 28-20 win over Dallas — Jaxson Dart gave them a glimpse of what this offense could become. The sacrifice is perspective: one great Week 1 performance does not mean every old Giants problem is suddenly fixed.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.Is Jaxson Dart already changing the Giants' ceiling? His 23-of-29, 230-yard, three-touchdown performance gave New York efficient quarterback play, mobility and answers every time Dallas tried to climb back into the game.Dart is the center of the discussion after adding 58 rushing yards and avoiding an interception. Drew and Rob break down why the performance felt different from just a good box score: the Giants stayed aggressive, responded when Dallas scored and trusted the quarterback instead of retreating into conservative football.Was this just one good game against a vulnerable Dallas defense, or did Matt Nagy show us what this offense is actually supposed to be?Isaiah Likely was one of the biggest beneficiaries, finishing with eight catches for 78 yards and two touchdowns. Malik Nabers returned with six catches for 69 yards without the offense having to force-feed him. The Giants used Nabers' gravity, Dart's mobility, multiple personnel groups and the running backs to create answers all over the field.Cam Skattebo also made his case with Najee Harris inactive. He handled tough carries, scored a touchdown and became part of the Giants' clock-killing offense late. Devin Singletary contributed as a receiver, while Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s fumble raised another question about how much the coaching staff can trust him right now.And did Dennard Wilson's defense just give Giants fans a reason to believe?Dak Prescott finished with 175 passing yards, two touchdowns and an interception as Dallas managed 244 total yards. CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens never became the explosive nightmare many expected, and the Giants' pressure consistently forced Prescott to speed up his process.The episode also gets into the controversial officiating, New York's 10 penalties for 114 yards, the secondary's performance, Greg Newsome II's injury scare, the Deonte Banks debate, OBJ finishing without a target and why John Harbaugh's first regular-season game felt so different from what Giants fans have watched in recent years.Verified Timestamps00:00 Go G-Men! 01:05 Show Begins! 02:44 Jaxson Dart Answers Dallas 11:58 Matt Nagy's Offense & Isaiah Likely 21:38 Giants Defense Makes Dak Uncomfortable 30:43 Malik Nabers Is Back 35:43 Cam Skattebo Takes Over the Backfield 44:00 Giants-Cowboys Officiating Debate 53:16 Giants Secondary Answers the Challenge 61:07 Did Harbaugh Really Change This Team? 65:32 OBJ's Quiet Giants ReturnMerch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Week 1: Bowers OUT; AJB to IR; Jeanty, Nabers, Love, Swift

Josh Jacobs has pleaded no contest to misdemeanor charges of battery and criminal damage to property and reached a resolution in the criminal case that led to him being placed on the NFL's Commissioner Exempt list, but he remains on the list heading into Week 1. Adam and Dave also break down the latest injury news, including Tua Tagovailoa being added to the injury report with an oblique injury, Cooper Rush taking first-team reps, Malik Nabers saying it's his call whether he plays, and updates on Jonathon Brooks and Jeremiyah Love. Plus, we discuss Kenyon Sadiq being listed as a full participant at Jets practice and what all of these updates mean for your fantasy teams.

Get your 10-minute fantasy football edge: Bob Harris & Mike Dempsey break down today's NFL news + what it means for your team.  

Malik Nabers is making the final call on whether he plays against the Cowboys, and his concern about risking his long-term career has Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber leaning toward him sitting out. Shaun Morash believes Nabers will play, while Tiki explains why the decision is as much mental as physical and how the Giants locker room would handle losing its biggest receiving weapon. The conversation then turns emotional as callers share memories of September 11 and the role New York sports played in the city's healing. Evan and Tiki reflect on the Giants' connection to first responders and why Mike Piazza's unforgettable home run after 9/11 remains bigger than baseball.

Malik Nabers is making the final call on whether he plays against the Cowboys, and his comments about protecting his career leave Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber wondering if the Giants will open the season without their biggest weapon. Tiki and Evan lean toward Nabers sitting, while Shaun Morash predicts he plays and delivers five catches for 56 yards. The debate turns to how teammates would handle his decision and why the mental hurdle may matter as much as the physical one. Anthony Volpe's huge return sparks a victory lap over how the Yankees finally handled his development, while Aaron Glenn's decision to stick with Jason Sanders at kicker raises immediate Jets concerns. Plus, John Harbaugh gets a warning about dealing with the New York media, and the show reflects on September 11, the Giants' connection to first responders and the lasting meaning of Mike Piazza's iconic home run.

BOWERS to miss 1-2 games; Nabers, Jeanty, Love, Egbuka; WNF

The Giants have a real chance to attack Dallas' weaknesses, but that only matters if John Harbaugh has actually fixed the problems that buried New York last season: run defense, red-zone failures, late-game execution and discipline. Week 1 gives the Giants a favorable offensive matchup and a brutal defensive test at the same time.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.Has John Harbaugh actually changed the Giants enough to beat Dallas? The first answer should come from whether New York can stop the run, stay clean situationally and turn offensive opportunities into touchdowns.Drew and Rob start by separating fact from fiction in last season's 34-17 win over Dallas. The Giants were already leading 16-10 at halftime before the Cowboys pulled key starters, and there are pieces worth carrying forward: Jaxson Dart's mobility, a committed running game, ball security and sustained drives that keep Dak Prescott on the sideline.The first Giants injury report is unusually clean, with Malik Nabers, Andrew Thomas, Shelby Harris, Theo Johnson and Bryan Hudson all practicing fully. The first depth chart creates its own questions, including Deonte Banks ahead of Paulson Adebo and how Harbaugh plans to use the Giants' defensive and offensive rotations.Can Matt Nagy take advantage of Dallas immediately?The Cowboys struggled defensively last season, particularly against the run, and their secondary gives the Giants opportunities. Nabers has already produced huge numbers against Dallas, and New York may finally have enough complementary weapons to punish a defense that focuses too heavily on him. Drew expects the Giants offense to have a good matchup — but the unanswered question is what Nagy's real offense actually looks like after keeping so much hidden during the preseason.Then the concern flips to the Giants defense.New York allowed 145.3 rushing yards per game and an NFL-worst 5.3 yards per carry last season. Dallas averaged 125.6 rushing yards per game, while Javonte Williams ran for more than 1,200 yards. Before Brian Burns, Abdul Carter and Kayvon Thibodeaux can attack Dak Prescott, the Giants have to earn those pass-rush opportunities by winning first and second down.And when Dallas does throw, CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens create a major problem for a Giants cornerback room Drew still does not trust. Greg Newsome and Deonte Banks should benefit from more aggressive press coverage, but this is an immediate stress test for the entire secondary.Finally, the conversation comes back to Harbaugh. Physicality, conditioning, accountability and discipline have been the message all offseason. Now the Giants have to show it in an actual game.The episode also covers Dean Lowry, Jihad Ward, new reporting on Darius Slayton, the Giants' $7.88 million in available cap space, Week 1 NFL picks and a Cam Skattebo quick hit.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

NABERS to play Week 1; Jeremiyah Love? Baker; Hendy; Tuten

We question why the Giants released Darius Slayton with Malik Nabers' Week 1 status in doubt, before debating whether Geno Smith or Jaxson Dart has better surrounding talent—and why Dart must be a top-15 quarterback this season. After questioning the logic of Nabers sitting Week 1 only to play Week 2, Gio wonders if Boomer could fight off an alligator, then highlights the Nathan Fielder/Elizabeth Holmes documentary trailer ahead of Jerry's update. Plus, Sean McVay and a time-zone-confused Kyle Shanahan react to their Australia trip, Michael Irvin defends Jed York, Aaron Judge returns against the Rockies, and Al fumes over Rami showing up with a stomach virus.

It's the final episode of Best Ball Summer! Ed DeLauter @ff_litigator and Jeremiah Retzlaff @coachretzlaff1 reunite for a full lesson plan — breaking down their top exposures at every position and dropping their spiciest hot takes for the upcoming fantasy football season. ⏱️ Timestamps: 0:07 - Intro & welcome back 1:28 - Ed's Top 5 QB Exposures (Shough, Ward, Murray, Williams, Herbert) 4:09 -

Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and he's done pretending the Jets have a better offense than the Giants. Shaun makes the case position by position, arguing the Giants have the edge at quarterback, tight end and offensive line, while Malik Nabers gives them at least a push against Garrett Wilson and the Jets' receivers. Tiki weighs in on Nabers' massive ceiling and the debate over which New York offense is actually more dangerous. The conversation also turns to major Pro Football Hall of Fame voting changes and what they could mean for Tiki, Eli Manning and Tom Coughlin. Plus, Rutgers' ugly opener raises more questions about Greg Schiano, callers debate the Giants' chances in the NFC East, and Labor Day weekend sparks an argument over whether it's already way too early for pumpkin season.

The Garrett Wilson versus Malik Nabers debate returns as Jets fans push back on Shaun Morash's belief that Nabers has the higher ceiling. Shaun is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and while Wilson gets plenty of respect, Shaun still sees Nabers as the more dynamic, elite-level talent. Labor Day weekend also sends the show completely off the rails. Shaun and Tiki argue over pumpkin season arriving too early, reminisce about scrambled cable and dial-up internet, and Shaun reveals an unforgettable Britney Spears search that his mother caught him making as a kid.

Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Shaun is done pretending the Jets have a better offense than the Giants. He goes position by position, giving the Giants the edge at quarterback, tight end and offensive line while arguing Malik Nabers gives them at least a push against Garrett Wilson and the Jets' receivers. Tiki agrees Nabers has the higher ceiling, comparing the difference in talent and explosiveness to Randy Moss and Cris Carter. The debate expands to Malachi Fields versus Adonai Mitchell, the Giants' improved offensive line and whether last season's late progress can carry into a legitimate NFC East push. Rutgers' rough opener also gets another look as Tiki explains why the changing college football landscape makes Week 1 harder to judge.

Rutgers delivers a humiliating season-opening disaster against UMass, and Shaun Morash believes the damage to Greg Schiano may be unrecoverable. Shaun is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they rip apart a loss that turned Rutgers into a national punchline, debate whether Schiano can possibly recover, and hear from frustrated fans already canceling football trips after the collapse. Tiki also looks back on his own memorable college football moments at Virginia, including heartbreaking finishes against Michigan and Texas and the legendary upset of Florida State. Plus, the Yankees get some help in the standings and face a crucial weekend against the Padres, while the Giants conversation turns to Malik Nabers, Malachi Fields, Jaxson Dart, and the brewing debate over Nabers versus Garrett Wilson.

Rutgers fans are already reaching a breaking point after the disastrous loss to UMass. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as a longtime season-ticket holder reveals he canceled planned road trips to Wisconsin and Boston College because of the humiliation. Shaun argues the loss is even worse than Appalachian State shocking Michigan because Rutgers has far less reason for confidence that the program will recover. The Yankees also face a crucial weekend against the Padres with a chance to keep closing the division gap. Plus, Tiki explains why Malachi Fields could outproduce Malik Nabers early in the season as Jaxson Dart continues building trust with the Giants' young receiver, setting up another heated Nabers versus Garrett Wilson debate.

The Giants can keep improving the roster before Week 1, but every late addition raises a tougher question: why is Joe Schoen still searching after final cuts, especially on the defensive line? That same uncertainty runs through Malik Nabers' return, OBJ's comeback and a cornerback room already talking like one of the NFL's best.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate. Is Joe Schoen simply finishing the Giants roster, or is New York still trying to fix weaknesses that should have been settled before September? The answer is probably some of both, but defensive tackle remains the clearest position where the Giants are still actively looking for another answer.Schoen said there are "a few players out there that we are targeting or looking at" and said the Giants will probably add another defensive lineman. Drew and Rob debate what that says about a group built around D.J. Reader, Shelby Harris, C.J. Okoye and Darius Alexander after New York allowed 145.3 rushing yards per game in 2025.How much of the 53-man roster is really fixed? Schoen called the practice squad "truly an extension of the active roster," while John Harbaugh said Braxton Berrios will be treated like a 53-man player and is expected to return punts. The episode also gets into the Giants' two-quarterback strategy and the newest practice-squad additions.Malik Nabers says he feels good, but he still has boxes to check before committing to Dallas. The debate becomes whether medical clearance is enough if Nabers does not yet completely trust his knee for four quarters of NFL football.Greg Newsome II then makes the biggest boast of the night by calling the Giants the best cornerback room in football. Drew and Rob put that claim against the actual depth of Newsome, Paulson Adebo, Deonte Banks and Dru Phillips — and the Week 1 test waiting from CeeDee Lamb and George Pickens.Odell Beckham Jr. beat the odds, made the roster and got No. 13 back, but Harbaugh's challenge is the one that matters now: what does OBJ do with the opportunity? The show closes with Jaxson Dart saying he feels in command of the offense, Week 1 health updates, Giants throwback uniform dates and the possibility of Aaron Donald facing New York in Week 2.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

Malik Nabers' Week 1 status is suddenly a major concern for the Giants. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber, and Tiki remains convinced Nabers is unlikely to face the Cowboys as the star receiver works through the physical and mental hurdles of his recovery. Even if Nabers plays, expectations for his workload need to come down as the Giants prepare to lean on their run game and Jaxson Dart. The Yankees may have found an October fixture in Spencer Jones. His growth into a complete hitter has Shaun and Tiki arguing that Aaron Boone cannot push him aside when Aaron Judge returns, especially with Trent Grisham slipping. Plus, Freddy Peralta's strong outing after the Mets moved him adds another frustrating twist to his New York story.

Malik Nabers' Week 1 status is becoming a serious concern for the Giants. Tiki Barber believes the star receiver is unlikely to face the Cowboys, pointing to Nabers' continued work with trainers and the mental hurdle of fully trusting his repaired knee. The debate centers on whether Nabers should accept a limited role or wait until he feels capable of playing an entire game without hesitation.

Odell Beckham Jr. didn't make the Giants on reputation alone. Tiki Barber and Shaun Morash explain why Beckham earned his roster spot with a strong camp, while his experience and leadership could become even more valuable if Malik Nabers isn't ready for Week 1. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they turn toward the Giants' offensive identity. Tiki believes John Harbaugh is building a physical, run-heavy team capable of controlling games while Jaxson Dart and the passing attack develop. Even with Nabers potentially limited or unavailable against Dallas, Tiki says the Giants can lean on their ground game and toughness rather than forcing the offense to become a finished product immediately.

The Giants want to reestablish their toughness against Dallas, and Tiki Barber believes John Harbaugh has built a team capable of doing exactly that. Tiki and Shaun Morash explain why the Giants' physical training camp, commitment to the run game and desire to impose their will could give them an advantage against the Cowboys in Week 1. Tiki also compares Harbaugh's demanding approach to playing for Tom Coughlin and explains why hard coaching can make players better. The conversation returns to Malik Nabers, with Tiki detailing the mental challenge of trusting a surgically repaired knee and why Nabers may need more successful practice reps before he truly feels ready to play without hesitation.

Spencer Jones has made the Yankees' upcoming lineup decision impossible to ignore. Shaun Morash and Tiki Barber argue that Jones has become the complete player the Yankees hoped for, bringing power, speed, defense and production against lefties. With Aaron Judge nearing a return, they believe Jones has earned the right to stay in the everyday lineup over Trent Grisham, even when October arrives. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as the conversation shifts to Malik Nabers and the mental challenge of returning from a major injury. Tiki explains why Nabers may have to adjust to playing before he feels completely like his old self, and why getting comfortable with that reality could be the biggest hurdle in his comeback.

Malik Nabers' Week 1 status is suddenly a major Giants concern. Tiki Barber has consistently doubted that Nabers will be ready for the Cowboys opener, and he explains why the receiver may be physically progressing but still doesn't fully trust his repaired knee. Shaun Morash is in for Evan Roberts alongside Tiki Barber as they debate whether Nabers should accept a limited role or wait until he feels capable of playing a full game. They also examine how the Giants can survive without their top receiver, why John Harbaugh's physical approach could give them an early edge over Dallas, and how Odell Beckham Jr. earned his roster spot while providing needed leadership to a young receiving room.

The Jets passed on every young quarterback available, and that decision could eventually define Darren Mougey's tenure. Evan Roberts and Tiki Barber debate whether New York should have taken a chance on Jaxson Dart, Tyler Shough or Shedeur Sanders instead of entering another season without a true franchise quarterback. They also question whether Cleveland has given Sanders a fair opportunity and revisit the Jets' long history of disastrous first-round picks. The conversation then shifts to Garrett Wilson versus Malik Nabers after reports that the Jets once tried to trade up with the Giants to pair Nabers with Wilson. Plus, the Yankees' George Lombard Jr. sparks a debate over whether a struggling young player should sit or be allowed to play through mistakes.

Jaxson Dart should be playing in the preseason, and Evan Roberts wants the Giants to buck the NFL trend of protecting quarterbacks from game action. Shaun Morash pushes back, arguing joint practices now provide the meaningful reps teams once relied on preseason games to deliver. Their debate gets especially heated over Dart's running style, injury risk, and whether a few drives can actually change anything. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as they also argue over Geno Smith sitting out and clash over Malik Nabers versus Garrett Wilson. Evan defends Wilson's production and consistency, while Shaun insists Nabers has the higher ceiling and is the more explosive receiver.

Santiago Leon, Byron Jones, Anthony Faniel and David Heilmann discuss the New York Giants preseason, Football Fantasy and some New York Jets! ContributorsVictor Arocho – @varochoByron JonesAnthony FanielDavid Heilmann – @DynastyDorks

The Yankees' trade deadline is already producing wildly different results. Luis Garcia Jr. looks like a massive addition and Austin Wells has quieted the catcher concerns, but Fernando Cruz's injury exposes the bullpen hole Brian Cashman failed to fill. Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash also debate whether Eugenio Suárez could still help the Yankees in October. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as Connor Hughes reveals the Jets tried to trade up for Malik Nabers and weighs whether the Jets have a legitimate path to eight wins. Plus, the Jets and Giants roster debate heats up, and Evan predicts Pete Alonso's return to Citi Field with Baltimore could turn the ballpark into an Orioles home game.

The Jets wanted Malik Nabers badly enough to explore trading up with the Giants, and Connor Hughes reveals New York had Nabers ranked as the best receiver in his draft class. Hughes explains why the Giants quickly shut the door, why the Jets believed Nabers had best-in-the-NFL upside, and whether missing out ultimately worked in their favor. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as Hughes also lays out a path to a surprising Jets season, raises major concerns about their defense, and explains why Jaxson Dart still looks uncomfortable and needs more preseason work. Plus, the Giants' growing tension with Cam Skattebo, Odell Beckham Jr.'s roster outlook, and a heated debate over why an MLB mercy rule may eventually become inevitable.

Connor Hughes joins Evan Roberts and Shaun Morash with revealing details on how close the Jets came to pursuing Malik Nabers in the draft. Hughes explains why the Jets had Nabers ranked ahead of Marvin Harrison Jr., why the Giants shut down trade talks, and why Nabers was viewed as a potential best-in-the-NFL receiver.

The Giants gained flexibility elsewhere on the roster, but Calvin Austin III's season-ending ACL tear takes away a receiver who had earned a real offensive and return role just before final cuts. Now New York has to redistribute that work without weakening a WR room already depending heavily on Malik Nabers' health.Follow on Spotify and leave a 5-star rating on Apple Podcasts if you enjoy no-BS Giants debate.The Big Question: Who replaces Calvin Austin III in the Giants offense? Braxton Berrios is the clearest true-slot option, but Odell Beckham Jr., Malachi Fields and the rest of the room could all see their roles change.Drew and Rob break down what Austin's loss means for Berrios, OBJ, Fields, Darnell Mooney and the final 53. Darius Slayton said Austin had earned the right to start and make an impact, which makes this much bigger than losing a fringe roster player.Jaxson Dart is also giving Matt Nagy more reasons for optimism. The Giants are expanding the terminology around him, working on when he needs to protect himself as a runner, and seeing more success downfield in practice. Dart threw four touchdowns in eight goal-line plays, and the debate becomes whether this is a real Year 2 step or simply August optimism.Malik Nabers is back taking team reps without the red non-contact jersey, making Week 1 against Dallas a legitimate possibility. The hosts debate whether a snap count makes sense if Nabers is close but not fully ready.The running back room has its own pressure. Cam Skattebo sits atop the latest unofficial depth chart, while Tyrone Tracy is trying to rebound from a missed blitz pickup and a preseason fumble. Skattebo's practice scuffle with Greg Newsome II and Jevon Holland also turns into a discussion about how much edge is too much when it is directed at teammates.Deonte Banks' resurgence under Dennard Wilson, the Daniel Faalele and Josh Ezeudu trades, and the remaining defensive tackle concern round out the Giants roster discussion. The episode also gets into the NFL ending the traditional Pro Bowl games while keeping Pro Bowl selections.Merch: https://2giantgoofballs-shop.fourthwall.com/ Support: https://buymeacoffee.com/2giantgoofballs All episodes: https://2giantgoofballs.buzzsprout.com/Send us Fan MailSupport the show

The Jets debate explodes again as Evan Roberts pushes back on Shaun Morash for declaring there is essentially no chance they surprise people this season. Evan argues that unpredictable seasons happen all the time, while Shaun insists the Jets remain one of the NFL's worst teams and says optimism should be kept in check. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as the Malik Nabers versus Garrett Wilson argument also heats back up, with Shaun defending his belief that Nabers has the higher ceiling. Plus, Evan and Shaun react to Ric Flair's questionable Dolly Parton tribute and remember Parton's legendary career and memorable Thanksgiving halftime performance.

John Harbaugh joins us to talk Dart, Nabers & how he looks so young.

The Jets' talent becomes the center of a heated argument as Evan Roberts pushes back on Shaun Morash's insistence that Geno Smith makes all of it irrelevant. Evan lays out potential wins on the schedule and argues that dismissing an eight-win season as impossible goes too far, while Shaun keeps coming back to the same conclusion: without the quarterback, none of the surrounding talent matters. Shaun Morash is in for Tiki Barber alongside Evan Roberts as callers jump into the debate, including comparisons between the Jets and Giants skill-position groups. That sparks another argument over Garrett Wilson, Malik Nabers, A.D. Mitchell and whether Jaxson Dart is already better than Geno Smith, before the conversation turns toward Nabers potentially being ready for Week 1.

The Jets have five games to prove Shaun Morash wrong. Shaun says a 3-2 start would force him to reconsider his bleak outlook, while Evan Roberts calls Week 1 against Tennessee a “do we have a season” game and argues the Jets still have a path to surprise people. The debate then erupts again over Malik Nabers and Garrett Wilson, with Shaun insisting Nabers has the higher ceiling while Evan points to Wilson's production despite constant quarterback turnover. The Giants-Jets divide ultimately comes down to two words: coach and quarterback. Evan believes John Harbaugh can elevate the Giants into the playoffs, while he has far less faith in Aaron Glenn doing the same for the Jets.
