POPULARITY
A packed Friday show begins with the Jets sinking even deeper as Justin Fields struggles again after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting him out there and what exactly the Jets are trying to accomplish the rest of the season. Jerry Recco's first update features the sounds of another Patriots win, Willie Colon declaring Fields is not an NFL quarterback, and reaction from Shane Bowen as he prepares for the Packers. Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani sweep the MVP awards, Scott Boras starts hyping Cody Bellinger, and Boomer laughs about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year he started at WFAN. Hour two shifts to the Giants' head coaching search. Will they go with an experienced veteran or gamble on another coordinator. Gio sees both paths as possible and compares the situation to how the Patriots built around Drake Maye. Mike Tomlin's name surfaces, but acquiring him would take a trade. Jerry returns with more Jets misery, Dexter Lawrence reacts to Brian Daboll's firing, Mike Francesa's old Ohtani take resurfaces, and the guys talk about Barstool's Internet Invitational. Gio then wrestles with his Week 11 picks after going 0 for 5. Hour three features Boomer getting an alert about California flash floods and praising the Patriots' uniforms. Gio reveals his new obsession with the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and jokes that this is what aging men do. He also admits he struggles with scripted streaming shows if there are actors instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry brings more Patriots Jets audio as Brock Purdy prepares to return for San Francisco. The hour ends with Gio reacting to two unnecessary apologies and a batch of fun calls. Hour four opens with the Patriots winning their eighth straight over the Jets as Drake Maye looks fully in command. The discussion turns to what the Giants need in their next head coach for Jaxson Dart and why the Jets must turn to Tyrod Taylor. Jerry's final update of the day features Justin Fields' uneven performance, Shane Bowen's comments on Daboll's firing, and Judge and Ohtani's MVP celebrations. Scott Boras pumps up Cody Bellinger, the Moment of the Day features a Chris Russo prank call, and the week wraps with Boomer and Gio's NFL picks for Week eleven.
The hour opens with the Patriots extending their run to eight straight wins over the Jets as Drake Maye continues to look fully in command. Boomer and Gio compare that stability to what the Giants must find for Jaxson Dart with their next head coach. Gio also makes it clear the Jets can't justify sending Justin Fields back out there and believes Tyrod Taylor must take over immediately. Jerry Recco delivers his final update of the day with the sounds from another Jets loss, including Justin Fields' uneven night and Aaron Glenn's defense of his performance. Shane Bowen discusses his role in Brian Daboll's firing, while Aaron Judge and Shohei Ohtani take home MVP honors. Scott Boras is already promoting Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. The Moment of the Day features Chris Russo getting hit with a prank call. The week wraps with Boomer and Gio making their NFL picks for week eleven.
The hour opens with another rough night for the Jets as Justin Fields struggles after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting Fields out there if they want to win and build a real culture. What exactly is the plan for the rest of the season, and how can it involve anything other than moving on at quarterback? Jerry Recco delivers his first update with the sounds of the Patriots beating the Jets, plus Willie Colon saying Fields is not an NFL quarterback. Shane Bowen weighs in on the firing of Brian Daboll while turning the page toward the Packers. Aaron Judge wins the A.L. MVP, Ohtani takes the N.L. version, and Scott Boras is already talking up Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. Boomer and Gio wrap the hour with a wild fact about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year Boomer started at WFAN, Gio's affection for the Spittin Chicklets crew, and a caller pushing the idea of an Alabama quarterback for the Jets.
Jerry kicks off his first update with the sounds of the Patriots beating the Jets, followed by Willie Colon declaring that Justin Fields simply isn't an NFL quarterback.

BT & Sal unleash on the Giants after yet another inexcusable fourth-quarter collapse, demanding the immediate firing of Brian Daboll and defensive coordinator Shane Bowen. They argue Daboll has become more of a detriment than a positive, playing with a "scared loser move" mentality that is causing them to blow massive leads (including the statistically improbable 1-in-60,000 losses). The conversation pivots to the alarming health risk surrounding rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart, questioning the league's concussion protocol after Dart was allowed back in the game following a clear head injury. The hosts debate whether the Giants are "abusing" Dart's running ability with an unsustainable amount of RPO (Run-Pass Option) plays, which, while effective, puts his long-term health and NFL existence in jeopardy. They dismiss the idea of keeping Daboll as a quarterbacks coach, insisting he needs to be out of the building completely.
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.

BT and Sal discuss Giants great Carl Banks' scathing critique of defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence on the Bleav in Giants podcast. Banks claimed Lawrence has lost his opponents' respect and is failing to make a difference, even getting blocked by a "nine-year backup center." The hosts debate the most damning part of the callout, with Sal saying Lawrence has been "stealing money" since his massive $60 million guaranteed extension. They question why Banks, who is around the team, didn't confirm if Lawrence is injured before going public. They break down whether Lawrence is "paid and lazy" or simply banged up, and discuss the wider defensive failures under coordinator Shane Bowen, arguing the lack of impact from high-priced players like Lawrence is the true root of the Giants' struggles against the run.
BT & Sal go all-in on Week 8 NFL action with insider Nick Kostos. Kostos reveals his best bets, including why the Carolina Panthers +7.5 against a struggling Bills defense is an "easy click" and his reasoning for taking the Dallas Cowboys +3.5 against the Broncos' defense. The Giants fan in him reluctantly backs the Eagles to win but needs more info on the A.J. Brown drama before locking in the Over. Kostos holds nothing back, calling the Jets' offense abysmal but noting that the Bengals have the worst defense in the league, making the Jets a viable bet if the spread hits 7. Plus, fiery takes on the Giants' "trainwreck" kicker and the "comedy" of defensive coordinator Shane Bowen's hiring. Key Week 8 Discussion Points: Eagles-Giants Over/Under and the A.J. Brown question. Why the Buffalo Bills defense "sucks" and the value of betting the underdog Panthers. The only way to bet the hopeless New York Jets. A surprise take on the Packers being a top-four team in the league. Betting the Over for the Colts' team total against the Titans.

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.

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.

[00:36:21] — 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.
