The Jets play the Patriots this weekend and Gio wonders if there’s a chance Zach Wilson gets benched for Tim Boyle. Boomer said it’s not an option unless Zach gets hurt. Gio said if we are calling this a must win game, and he isn’t getting it done, the Jets have to consider benching him. Zach gets himself in trouble when he breaks the pocket and throws on the run. Gio said Zach will not be the QB out of the bye week against the Giants. Boomer thinks he will get the next 2 games and then they will decide. Peter Schwartz is here for an update but first they talked about golf with a sick Jerry Recco yesterday. Brian Daboll would still not rule Saquon Barkley out for tomorrow night. Tom Brady was asked about QB’ing for the Jets. ‘Next question’ was the answer. Gio called Jim Gray ‘a little peckerhead’. Deion Sanders was also a guest with Tom Brady and Jim Gray. In the final segment of the hour, Evan and Tiki had a hard time pronouncing a doctor’s name and Shaun Morash is now doing boner pill commercials.
The Giants play the Niners tomorrow night and Saquon Barkley is not playing. Gio has heard that the Giants will win this game or they will be blown out. Nobody seems to think the Giants will lose a close game. The only way to beat the Niners is throwing the ball down the field. That is their only weak point. The Giants still have issues at Right Tackle with Evan Neal and that’s Nick Bosa’s spot. A Patriots fan was killed in a fight in the stands in the game against the Dolphins. Boomer said the NFL has a major problem with this. Gio thinks the fights were always happening, but we see them all now on social media. We took calls on reasons for violence in the stands at games. Peter returns for an update. Did Boomer pay for the whole Hall of Fame trip the Schwartz family went on? Chris Russo continues to have issues pronouncing players’ names. Brian Daboll is not ruling Saquon Barkley out yet for tomorrow night. And Peter once waited in line for a Matt Martin autograph. In the final segment of the hour, Peter Schwartz wants Mel Tucker fired even if he doesn’t know any of the facts.
Boomer said Brock Purdy is a perfect example of never knowing when and where you’re going to find your guy. The Niners drafted Trey Lance third overall and Purdy was the last guy picked in the draft. We compared Zach Wilson to Brock Purdy. Boomer wants him hanging in the pocket instead of running around looking for receivers. Peter returns for an update. Gio asks Peter why he gave us a 2 week old story about Tee Higgins in last hour’s update. Peter starts with Brian Daboll not yet ruling out Saquon Barkley for tomorrow night’s game. In the final segment of the hour, Gio asks Boomer about a golf rules controversy that came up during a Barstool Sports golf competition. It involves Dave Portnoy and Kirk Minehan.
Kayvon Thibodeaux said he was not sulking on the sidelines while the Giants were celebrating a Saquon TD. He was ‘visualizing’ the Giants winning the game. Gio isn’t buying it. Peter returns for his final update of the day and told us he dropped his complaint about a cabbie from this past Summer. Brian Daboll is still not ruling Saquon out for tomorrow night. Mike Tomlin said the Steelers have to ‘get our mojo back’. The Moment of The Day involves Peter, of course. He wants it to be made clear that Boomer did not pay for his entire vacation to the Hall of Fame Game. In the final segment of the show, Jason Kelce confirmed that Travis Kelce and Taylor Swift are dating.
