We are off TV today until 8:30 am because of women’s field hockey. We talked about Josh Allen and the Bills and how he runs and sometimes slides and sometimes doesn’t slide and the defenders don’t know what to do. There was also a fumble recovery on the sideline by Buffalo that they kept as not a fumble recovery. Mason Rudolph played pretty good in the second half but his interception in the end zone really hurt them. Gio is now rooting for the Bills to be in the Super Bowl for the AFC. We went over the spreads for NFL Divisional Weekend. The Eagles showed a lack of effort in last night’s game. People are calling for Nick Sirianni’s job. Things got so bad for the Eagles they failed at their tush push. Boomer said neither game was that compelling. Jerry is here for his first update of the day and starts with audio from last night’s Bucs win over the Eagles. Nick Sirianni talked about starting 10-1 and ending the way they did. Seth Joyner, on the Eagles postgame, said Jalen Hurts played uninspired. He also talked about the lack of tackling. The Bills beat the Steelers 31-17. Sean McDermott talked about Bills Mafia showing up to sit in the snow. Mike Tomlin said they just weren’t good enough. He also walked away from the podium when he was asked about his future and his contract. Jerry went around the NBA and NHL last night. In the final segment of the hour, Boomer wonders if the NFL will keep Wild Card Weekend the way it happened this year. 2 games Saturday, 2 Sunday and 2 Monday. Boomer said the NFL will eventually add an 18th game and move the Super Bowl to the Sunday before Presidents Day. We also talked about NBC bragging about the Peacock viewing numbers.
Pat Leonard of the Daily News had an article about Brian Daboll’s composure on the sideline being the thing that caused a rift between him and Wink Martindale. We loved when Daboll was yelling at Daniel Jones on the sidelines. This had to come from Wink and his assistants to try and prove they were not the problem. Gio said it’s petty and there’s nothing in the article that makes him dislike Daboll. Boomer said John Harbaugh probably got sick of Wink which is why he dropped him. Boomer told Wink, ‘put your name on it’. Boomer said Jerry Jones did not look good physically after the game, but he may have been fooled by an internet meme. Jerry returns for an update and starts with the Bucs beating the Eagles in Tampa. Jalen Hurts is hoping to find a positive in what happened to them at the end of the season. Seth Joyner, on the Eagles postgame show, was very critical of the team. The Bills beat the Steelers 31-17. Sean McDermott talked about the Josh Allen long TD run. Jerry went around the NBA and NHL last night. In the final segment of the hour, Gio is watching some documentary on Max about a kidnapping of a bus full of kids in the 1970’s. It happened in Chowchilla, California. A woman named Linda calls in and wants the NFL to roll injured players onto the sideline to tend to them there. She wants to save time.
Eagles Center Jason Kelce is retiring. Probably the best Center in his generation. The remaining QBs in the NFC are Jordan Love, Baker Mayfield, Jared Goff and Brock Purdy. A caller thinks the NFL is getting ruined by penalties and all the players looking for a free 15 yards. Jerry returns for an update and starts with Jason Kelce retiring. He has audio from the Super Bowl parade where he sounds like a crazy pro wrestler. The Bucs beat the Eagles last night as Philadelphia played like a defeated team. Eagles radio broadcaster Seth Joyner said Nick Sirianni is not long for this job. The Bills beat the Steelers 31-17. Mike Tomlin appreciates the effort, but that doesn’t get it done. We also heard the radio call of the Josh Allen long TD run. In the final segment of the hour, Hulk Hogan helped a girl whose car flipped over and his new wife Tweeted about it.
Pat Leonard of the Daily News has a story about the relationship between Brian Daboll and Wink Martindale. It’s pretty clear that Wink or one of his minions is the one who gave the story to the Daily News. And Boomer said, that sucks. Gio said Giants fans should not be alarmed by this as Brian Daboll is a leader of men. Boomer dropped a weird mention about Bill Belichick to the Giants. Gio said they’re not doing that. Boomer said he is wondering aloud. Jerry returns for his final update of the day but first we talked about Gio’s love of golf. Jerry has sound from last night’s Bucs victory over the Eagles. Boomer is amazed at the number of fast wide receivers in the league most people have never heard of. Nick Sirianni talked about the Eagles' collapse after starting 10-1. Josh Allen talked about his long TD run. Some people think he did a fake slide motion. Jerry went around the NBA last night. The Moment of The Day involves a caller named Linda, who has an idea on how to speed up NFL games when it comes to injured players on the field (she wants to roll them off the field). In the final segment of the show, Boomer dropped some crumbs earlier this hour, suggesting that Belichick and the Giants could get involved with each other. We talked about job openings in the NFL. The Raiders players really want Antonio Pierce to stay as their Head Coach. Gio talked about watching a stand alone NFL game and how many commercial breaks they take. You can normally flip to commercial free Red Zone, but you can’t do that during the playoffs.
