Valenti is beside himself after the Giants catastrophic collapse yesterday where they blew a 19-point lead and allowed 33 4th quarter points to the Broncos to lose 33-32. He wonders if the guys and the people have any similar or worse experiences with their own teams.

Brian Burns was caught on camera furious with a defensive decision late in the Giants loss

Jaxson Dart is trying his best to turn the tide for the New York Giants, in Denver on Sunday he had his team up 26-0 in the third quarter.  Join Ethan, Nick and Weis for this wide ranging conversation about the Giants unbelievably bad loss to the Denver Broncos. The guys dive into the incompetent roster management that put Jude McAtamney on the field for two missed extra points, the terrible coaching decisions that put Deonte Banks on the field for key third downs Denver converted and debated whether Shane Bowen will make it back to New York. The guys also discuss the merits of trading for Jaylen Waddle as the Miami Dolphins embark on a fire sale.

BT & Sal dive into the "Vanilla" problem plaguing the defense, arguing that coordinator Shane Bowen's overly conservative, passive approach is preventing an elite unit with "studs" like Burns from being truly unleashed. They debate whether Bowen's defense matches his personality, calling for more aggression to elevate the team to the next level, even as the offense finds its fire with the new quarterback.

BT and Sal explode with euphoria over the New York Giants' franchise-altering, dominant victory against the Philadelphia Eagles. They celebrate the arrival of rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, whose moxie, toughness, and electrifying play have injected a sustainable, championship-level energy into the team and fan base. The hosts discuss the profound significance of the win—a complete shift in trajectory—while simultaneously questioning defensive coordinator Shane Bowen's "vanilla" scheme for potentially holding an otherwise elite unit back. This win, the hosts contend, is more legitimate and important for the future than the playoff victory of two years ago, justifying ownership's faith in Brian Daboll and the new regime.

Bob Papa and Carl Banks preview the Giants' upcoming game against the Eagles, highlighting key strategies for victory. They stress the need to stop the run, play mistake-free football, and avoid allowing the Eagles to regain momentum, as they have struggled in their run game. While discussing the Giants' recent performance against the Saints, they note that one big play and offensive turnovers were costly. They also address criticism of Shane Bowen's defensive schemes, acknowledging that while the defense has been solid, there's room for improvement in capitalizing on turnovers. [00:01:23] — Giants vs. Eagles Preview Carl outlines what the Giants need to do against Philadelphia: stopping the run, handling the Eagles' balanced attack, and maintaining focus and mental stamina. [00:08:04] — Not Being the 'Get Right' Game Bob highlights Eagles' statistical struggles in the run game and stresses the Giants can't let this be Philadelphia's turnaround game. [00:11:17] — Giants' History Against the Eagles & Fan Frustration Discussion shifts to the Giants' poor record against Philadelphia when it matters, fan impatience, and why the team needs to earn back respect. [00:15:26] — Special Teams X-Factor Special teams importance: Both hosts talk about Philadelphia's big plays on special teams and why the Giants must play “error-free” in all three phases. [00:19:41] — Giants Defense: Scheme, Critics, & Analysis Transition to defensive discussion: Addressing criticism of Shane Bowen's scheme, the nuances of defensive planning, and why off-coverage dictated by personnel. [00:25:22] — Breaking Down the Saints Game & Defensive Strategy Carl gives a detailed statistical breakdown of the Saints game, defending the Giants' defensive approach, and contextualizing the lone big play allowed. [00:33:18] — On Disguising Defense: League Trends vs. Fan Perceptions Deeper dive into what defensive “disguise” means in the NFL, using examples from other teams (Chiefs/Jaguars), and challenges with fan expectations. [00:36:21] — Defensive Execution & Interception Opportunities Emphasis on opportunities missed (dropped interceptions), defending the game plan's effectiveness, and how execution failed more than scheme. [00:42:50] — Who Steps Up for the Giants Offense? Conversation pivots to the offense: How Vic Fangio may counter the Giants' tight ends, and who needs to step up to make contested plays. [00:44:28] — Growth & Mistakes of Young Players Analysis of rookie mistakes, evolution of young Giants defenders, and the importance of incremental improvement.   Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Send us a textThe New York Giants head into Week 5 surrounded by major storylines.  Plus, we break down every NFL Week 5 matchup with our picks straight up, against the spread, and over/under.Giants fans—would you move Russell Wilson or Jameis Winston if Cincinnati came calling? And what's your number one key to beating the Saints: fixing the run defense or finally finishing in the red zone? Drop your take in the comments and hit subscribe to join the Goofball Army!Russell Wilson's name has popped up in trade rumors, with reports of “stray chatter” about a potential Bengals deal for a fifth-round pick. With Jaxson Dart now starting and proving himself against the Chargers, one of the Giants' veteran backups could be expendable. The leverage game is on, with both sides waiting for the other to make the first move as the trade deadline looms.Meanwhile, the Giants' run defense continues to be a glaring weakness. Tied for last in the league in yards per carry allowed, the unit has been gashed repeatedly for explosive runs. Shane Bowen stressed tackling, swarming, and “changing the math” up front—but until the Giants prove they can stop giving up chunk plays, it's the biggest worry heading into Sunday.Jaxson Dart also has some extra motivation this week. He revealed that he met with the Saints multiple times before the draft and thought New Orleans might take him. Instead, they chose tackle Kelvin Banks Jr. Now Dart gets the chance to show the Saints what they missed, and he's already won over Giants fans with his poise and toughness.We also check in with Abdul Carter, who praised Dexter Lawrence and Brian Burns while emphasizing the defensive standard: stop the run, rush the passer, and set the tone. If that front four can dominate, the Giants have a clear path to victory.Thank you for watching & for your support.

Send us a textGiants fans, Brian Daboll just refused to commit to Russell Wilson as QB1, and now the entire New York Giants fanbase is asking: is it finally Jaxson Dart time? In his Monday presser, Daboll dodged multiple questions, repeating “we're evaluating everything.” That sounds like the door is wide open for a quarterback change.What do you think, Giants fans — is it time to bench Wilson and start Dart? Drop your take in the comments and don't forget to subscribe for more daily Giants coverage.This episode we break down exactly what Daboll said, what it means for the quarterback room, and why the Giants' only path forward may be turning the season over to Dart. Then we dive into how to actually fix this broken roster: fire GM Joe Schoen, hand Mike Kafka the reins, make coaching changes like replacing Shane Bowen with Andre Patterson or Marquand Manuel, and start trading away veterans like Wilson, Hyatt, Neal, Runyan, and others for draft capital. The rest of 2025 has to be about developing young talent and finally apologizing to the fanbase for the mess this franchise has become.We also react to the Turbo Miller storyline. With Tyrone Tracy out, is Turbo finally getting his chance to step in and make an impact? And of course, we cover the full NFL Week 3 recap — from the Eagles' controversial win over the Rams, to the Browns' late heroics vs. Green Bay, Baker's comeback in Tampa, the Steelers' defense finally showing up, Caleb Williams' huge day for the Bears, the Vikings' blowout win, and plenty more. Giants vs. Chiefs ended ugly, and it's time to be brutally honest about where Big Blue stands.It's a jam-packed breakdown with real talk about the future of the New York Giants, and no sugarcoating.Thank you for watching & for your support.

Defensive Coordinator Shane Bowen speaks to the media before practice Thursday at the Quest Diagnostics Training Center.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The Giants opened their season with a disappointing loss in Washington. Both Carl Banks and Bob Papa highlighted a feeling of déjà vu; this game felt eerily similar to struggles from last year. The Giants' offense never found a consistent rhythm, and issues from the preseason, especially struggles on the offensive line, proved costly, allowing significant pressure on new QB Russell Wilson and making it difficult to establish the run. There was a heavy emphasis on getting the ball to rookie Malik Nabers, but he couldn't capitalize on a couple of key opportunities, dropping passes that could've changed the momentum. 00:00:00 Giants season opener disappointment, team energy 00:01:00 Malik Nabers issues 00:05:10 Big plays, difference makers, red zone/goal line issues 00:10:30 Dan Quinn's defensive familiarity/problems for Giants 00:13:20 Interior O-Line struggles, running game, pressure on Russell Wilson 00:15:25 Offensive line needs to improve, group continuity 00:19:05 Giants defense: Shane Bowen's plan, missed opportunities, run defense 00:20:15 Poor second down defense, missed tackles/leverage, long conversions allowed 00:25:20 Zone coverage technique/rerouting WRs, coverage philosophy 00:30:18 Run defense issues quantified—220 yards given up 00:33:49 Leverage failures, fundamentals review 00:36:23 Upcoming matchup preview: Dallas, what needs to improve 00:37:40 Defensive substitution issues, missed leverage, correcting mistakes 00:38:57 Personnel vs. technique, improvement potential, disrupting receivers 00:43:15 Summary: playing on their terms vs. opponent's terms 00:43:54 Cowboys preview, interior O-Line again a target for opponents

Bob Papa and Carl Banks break down the New York Giants' first 53-man roster after NFL cutdown day. They discuss the reasoning behind several surprising cuts, noting that some talented players, such as Turbo Miller and Tommy DeVito, were let go mainly due to the “numbers game” and roster math, rather than performance issues. They highlight areas where the Giants may still seek upgrades, especially at cornerback, safety, and possibly wide receiver. They also discuss the improved talent level on the roster, the evolving linebacker group, and the coaching staff's strategy for developing young players. 00:00:02 Reaction to Giants' initial 53-man roster 00:04:07 Cut decisions and “NFL math” behind roster moves 00:07:55 Potential waiver wire targets and vulnerable positions 00:11:50 Inside linebacker depth concerns 00:14:10 Clarifications on injured list and active roster status 00:15:14 Questions about Hunter Renfrow, practice squad possibilities 00:18:12 Thoughts on undrafted rookies and developmental players 00:22:05 Offensive improvements and coaching approach 00:24:11 Wide receiver depth and possible upgrades 00:26:00 Performances of cut linebackers and practice squad outlook 00:27:53 What the defense is seeking at linebacker and safety 00:31:08 Rookies and veterans to watch in the upcoming season 00:32:48 Impact of seasoned QB play on wide receivers 00:34:42 Trey Hawkins & roster decisions 00:35:18 Isaiah Simmons' fit and roster philosophy 00:39:55 Burns Thibodeau and Carter lineup packages 00:41:23 Tommy DeVito's future and possible landing spots 00:46:46 Importance of backup roles and narrative around DeVito 00:48:07 Kayvon Thibodeau's value and reasons to keep top edge rushers 00:53:07 Shane Bowen's defensive philosophy and scheme 00:56:01 Tight end situation and numbers game 00:58:00 Discussion on Christian Wilkins and why his signing is unlikely 01:01:25 Starter upcoming deal

Send us a textThe New York Giants are making headlines for all the wrong reasons as Drew and Rob welcome special guest Tim from New York Giants Straight Talk – Online Big Blue to break it all down. With linebacker Ty Summers released after battling a groin injury and contributing 29 tackles in 16 games last year, the roster shuffle continues just weeks before the season opener. Head coach Brian Daboll faces massive pressure after back-to-back underwhelming seasons, and the 2025 schedule doesn't do him any favors—opening at the Commanders, then at the Cowboys, before facing the Chiefs and Chargers.USA Today's Nate Davis projects the Giants to finish with the NFL's worst record at 2-15, citing the league's toughest schedule (.574 opponents' win percentage) and questions about whether Russell Wilson can bounce back at age 36, especially with growing calls for Jaxson Dart to take over under center. Despite young talent like Malik Nabers, Andrew Thomas, and rookie Abdul Carter, finding wins will be an uphill battle.Defensive coordinator Shane Bowen offers a silver lining, praising the defense's knack for getting hands on passes in camp but stressing the need for more tipped balls and consistent turnover creation. Off the field, the Giants have fallen out of the NFL's top five in ticket sales for the first time in years, with MetLife Stadium's poor fan experience and the team's recent play likely contributing to the decline.Finally, don't miss our Rapid Fire segment with Tim, as he gives his quick-hit takes on key Giants players in 30 seconds or less.
