The Jets somehow beat the Giants in one of the worst games the NFL has ever seen. They almost set a record for punts in a game. They had 24 total and the record is 27. Kayvon Thibodeaux had a great game but a key penalty that stopped the clock helped the Jets tie it in regulation. And just before the Jets clocked it with one second to play, the officials let the Jets Center center the ball and the ref just came over and tapped it. The quarterback play in New York has been atrocious. And yet, all around the league, we see guys come off the bench and have great games. Gio said Mike White was the best QB we had since Eli Manning. You could not script the ending of the fourth quarter any worse way for the Giants. Boomer said the Jets still have a major problem with Zach Wilson missing wide open guys. Jerry is here for his first update and starts with Bob Papa calling Kayvon’s sack as ‘closing it out’. Wrong. Rob Saleh said it wasn’t pretty but a win is a win. Zach Wilson gave the defense credit as they’re ‘balling out’. The Jets punter was very emotional and crying after the game. Brian Daboll talked about attempting the FG instead of going for it on 4th and 1. Boomer said Zach has a ‘total lack of awareness’. Joe Burrow looked great as the Bengals beat the Niners. The Chiefs lost to the Broncos as Patrick Mahomes was picked twice. The Cowboys beat the Rams and were up big early. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about some good teams that lost like the Chiefs and Niners. A caller thinks the Jets are getting so much hate even though they found a way to win. The Jets almost lost to a team that had -9 yards passing.
I wonder how Giants fans would feel if they booked a trip to Vegas before the season started. Now they are going out there as a 2-6 team with a potential starting QB named Tommy DeVito. Boomer thinks Daniel Jones will be back this week. A caller wonders why we’re not giving the Jets defense credit for the win. A caller wants to give credit to Zach Wilson for doing ‘some good things’. Gio said this game was so bad he will never be able to forget it. Jerry returns for an update and has play-by-play by Andrew Catalon at CBS. The teams started 0-for-26 on third down combined. Zach talked about having a short term memory in the NFL. Brian Daboll was asked why he attempted a FG instead of going for it on 4th and 1. Tommy DeVito was happy he got to play in a meaningful NFL game. Jerry played highlights from around the NFL including the Panthers getting their first win of the season. In the final segment of the hour, Gio called the Jets/Giants game an ‘abhorrent display’. Kirk Cousins tore his achilles and it looked worse than the Aaron Rodgers injury. There doesn’t seem to be any dominant team in the NFL as we’ve seen losses by the Chiefs and Niners. If the Jets are 4-3 with Zach Wilson, imagine if Aaron Rogers was quarterbacking.
The NFL trade deadline is tomorrow. Saquon Barkley seems like he would be a good fit for the Ravens. Boomer thinks Daniel Jones will play this week in Las Vegas. Boomer said yesterday was ‘a spooky game filled with weird stuff’. A caller wonders why the Giants signed Tommy DeVito if he can’t throw the football. A caller is angry at both Jets and Giants ownership for not putting a dome on the stadium when they built it. Jerry returns for an update and has audio from the Jets postgame show on SNY with Willie Colon and Bart Scott. They cannot believe what they just watched. The Jets are never taking Zach Wilson off the field unless Aaron Rodgers is back. Brian Daboll was asked about the trade deadline but he’s not talking about that. Graham Gano said he has no excuses for his performance. The Chargers beat the Bears 30-13 on Sunday Night Football. Kirk Cousins tore his achilles and his season is over. Will Levis threw 4 TDs while wearing the throwback Houston Oilers uniforms. In the final segment of the hour, we talked about how beloved Kirk Cousins has become since the Quarterback documentary on Netflix. The trade deadline is tomorrow and we may actually see some moves this year. Maybe Saquon Barkley gets moved. A caller wonders if Rob Saleh wears mascara on game days.
Kyler Murray is expected to be back on the field this coming week for the Cardinals. Right now they would have the number one pick in the draft so it will be interesting to see what they do. We also talked about the end of regulation when the refs let the Jets set the ball to spike it with one second left. That should not have been allowed. And now we get word that Daniel Jones has been cleared for contact and will play against the Raiders. Jerry returns for his final update of the day and starts with the news that Daniel Jones is ready to go this coming week against the Raiders. Brian Daboll was asked about attempting the FG instead of going for it on 4th and 1. Graham Gano was not using his knee injury as an excuse for his two misses. Tommy DeVito talked about living out a childhood dream, unfortunately they lost. The Jets punter had such a great game it made him tear up after the game. Max Scherzer pitches tonight for the Rangers in game 3 of the World Series. The Moment of The Day involves Gio’s Mike Tomlin impersonation as he delivers a eulogy. In the final segment of the show, we talked about the Jets beating the Rams that cost them the number 1 pick in the 2021 draft and instead of Trevor Lawrence they ended up with Zach Wilson.
