Boomer & Gio are working the day after Thanksgiving because the Giants had a huge game against the Cowboys on Turkey Day. Unfortunately for Big Blue, they lost. The short-handed Giants couldn’t keep up with the Cowboys and now they are in a battle for a playoff spot. Can they get two more wins with their tough schedule? Daniel Jones couldn’t make the biggest play of the game and Micah Parsons came through for the Cowboys. CLo is in for Jerry and begins with the Giants big missed fourth down attempt. Boomer loves how Bob Papa and Carl Banks called out Daniel Jones for not making a better throw. Brian Daboll was not happy at all in his postgame press conference. The Cowboys want Odell and Boomer says there’s no way he’s signing with the Giants after yesterday. The Vikings beat the Patriots thanks in part to a controversial overturned call and Gio tells Boomer he’s impossible to deal with. The Lions gave the Bills a scare but Josh Allen led a drive in the final seconds to win the game.
In the final segment of the hour, Gio asks if the Bills should still be favorites to win the Super Bowl. Then, a caller asks if the Giants went for it on 4th down too early in the game. Both Boomer and Gio are firm with their response.
The Jets benched Zach Wilson right after Wednesday’s show ended and Gio is surprised Robert Saleh pulled the trigger in benching Wilson for Mike White. Gio thinks the Jets could have something with Mike White but Boomer says not so fast. Boomer does agree with the Jets head coach that the second-year QB needs this “reset”. The guys agree that Zach Wilson has been overwhelmed by the NFL and playing in New York. CLo returns for an update and before he starts we cover Zoo playing hurt, a butter shortage and a World Cup update. CLo then begins the real update with one of three Cowboys second-half touchdowns, this one on a 3rd & 15. Carl Banks says that long conversion on 3rd down is what it is because of injuries in the secondary and Boomer agrees. Daniel Jones missed a big throw to Saquon Barkley on 4th down and both players took responsibility for the play not being made. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer’s former Jets teammate Glenn Foley calls in to talk about what it was like being a young QB backing up Boomer.
Gio wonders if the conversations about extensions for Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley started too soon. Boomer says yesterday’s game was more on the shoulders of the QB than the RB. Gio wonders if the Giants could join the Jets in the market for a veteran QB and Boomer thinks the Jets are a better destination. Boomer says Jones isn’t a great QB but is a great leader and he could be better with a better supporting cast. A caller asks about Mike LaFleur and the guys agree, the Jets OC has had Qbs not named Zach Wilson produce positive results. CLo returns for an update and starts with the Giants only having 10 men on the field for their failed first down. Boomer makes it clear that Daniel Jones is responsible for the play not working. CLo wonders if players enjoy playing on Thanksgiving? When discussing Zach Wilson, Boomer says when you lose the locker room that’s all she wrote. In the final segment of the hour, Gio shares a recent golf story that started with a jubilant win and ended with a trophy being ripped from his hands. Then, the guys wonder how much Aaron Judge is enjoying San Francisco.
Boomer and Gio look at auction items available for bid on Boomer’s website. Gio thinks Mike White has a shot to play well and Boomer says White has a limited ceiling. Is Saquon Barkley playing hurt? CLo returns for his last update of the day and before he begins, Gio shares some World Cup/working from home related office drama. The Giants couldn’t convert a big 4th and 1 in a loss to the Cowboys and Brian Daboll was not in a good mood after the game. We learn how much CLo can’t stand the Devils. A Mike McDaniel and CLo interview would last for days. In the final segment of the show, Zoo tells Boomer and Gio how confident he is in Team USA today. Then Brandon Tierney pops in to say hello before we go home and he starts his show.
