BT & Sal tear into the state of the New York Giants following their latest loss, focusing on the team's ongoing spiral to a 2-7 record for the third straight year. The Call of the Day slams Defensive Coordinator Shane Bowen's "absolute joke" of a scheme, pointing to All-Pros like Christian McCaffrey running "untouched" for touchdowns and players like Andrew Thomas "quitting" on a play. The hosts criticize Brian Daboll for deflecting blame onto the "collective group" instead of holding individuals accountable, arguing that his approach is clearly "not working." They conclude that the Giants are crippled by a combination of subpar coaching and underperforming players, leading to the same, frustrating result year after year.

BT & Sal dissect the emotional fallout of the World Series, focusing intensely on the Toronto Blue Jays' devastating loss after getting so close. BT emphatically states he'd "rather not even get there" than suffer a crushing defeat—like the one the Blue Jays did, or the infamous Falcons Super Bowl collapse—arguing that reaching the precipice only to have the championship snatched away leads to a deep, unrecoverable pain for fans of long-suffering franchises.

Sal counters, highlighting the "month of memories" and the joy of the run, but concedes the loss was "soul-crushing." The hosts analyze the "unfathomably unacceptable" fundamental baseball mistake—a poor secondary lead costing the final out—that sealed Toronto's fate. They also touch upon the emotional impact of manager Don Mattingly's presumed retirement after the loss.

BT and Sal dive into the latest comments from coach Aaron Glenn, praising his consistent defiance of the media's constant questioning about the Jets' starting quarterback. While Sal initially disagreed, he now sees Glenn's stance as a deliberate move to foster a "bunker mentality" and establish organizational authority that will benefit the team long-term.

They discuss the high-risk/high-reward strategy of this approach, with BT emphasizing that as long as the players know the plan, the media's opinion is irrelevant. The hosts also break down Glenn's self-aware defense of his aggressive two-point conversion strategy, concluding that regardless of his media tactics, wins are the only currency that will truly silence the critics.

BT & Sal have reached their breaking point with the Giants, demanding a complete overhaul of the front office and coaching staff. Following another embarrassing loss that saw them regress to 2-7, the hosts declare "It's enough!" and say there's nothing left to see from Joe Schoen or Brian Daboll. Sal is tired of beating the "dead horse" of bad losses and regression, while BT senses Daboll is "sadly resigned" to his fate and blasts the players (like Dexter Lawrence and Deonte Banks) for a perceived lack of embarrassment and "mentally checking out." The hosts argue that Schoen is "undefendable" for his roster construction, failed drafts, and the recurring kicker crisis, concluding that the only path forward is to "start over" and fire both the GM and the head coach immediately.

BT & Sal dive into the highly anticipated Contemporary Baseball Era Player Ballot for the Hall of Fame Class of 2026, dropping fiery first-instinct votes on names like Barry Bonds, Roger Clemens, Gary Sheffield, and Dale Murphy. The central focus is on Don Mattingly, as the hosts debate whether his brilliant-but-brief peak, including an MVP and a near-miss MVP season, should finally secure his plaque, comparing his case to the two-time MVP Dale Murphy. They dissect the arguments for Mattingly and other controversial figures, acknowledging that for some, this ballot could be their final chance at induction.

BT & Sal aggressively argue that Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen have been given far too much time, citing the Giants' abysmal 2-7 record and their atrocious 5-21 mark in their last 26 games. The hosts question ownership's "patience," arguing the early success was a misleading fluke. The focus shifts to Joe Schoen, whose roster construction is indicted for the team's weekly defensive failings against the run and poor overall talent, despite the promising play of rookie QB Jaxson Dart. The core fear is that Daboll's regime will ruin or injure Dart with a chaotic supporting cast, proving four years is enough time to declare the regime a failure and demanding a total "clean house" change this offseason.

BT & Sal unleash a torrent of criticism after the Giants' brutal 2-7 start, declaring that John Mara's patience is now a clear mistake. The hosts argue that after four years, the results are an "absolute failure," making the firing of both GM Joe Schoen and Head Coach Brian Daboll justifiable and necessary. They savage the team's "lack of want" and "player regression," pointing to plays where even star Dexter Lawrence appeared to quit, calling it a direct indictment of the coaching staff. The segment concludes with a plea for ownership to impose a "freeze on everything" at the upcoming trade deadline, arguing that a "dead man walking" regime should not be allowed to make decisions on the future roster.

BT & Sal declare the Schoen and Daboll era is unequivocally over after the Giants' latest pathetic loss at home to the depleted 49ers. Despite Jaxson Dart's strong performance, the team is now 2-7 for the third straight year, proving the regime's failure goes far beyond the quarterback position. The hosts blast the horrific play calling, abysmal defensive effort (especially stopping the run), and the disengaged players who are reportedly quitting on plays—a sign of a broken culture. They argue that the marriage of Dart and Daboll is not worth saving, demanding the firing of both Shane and Daboll immediately before they "run Dart into the ground" out of desperation. The conversation concludes with a list of the franchise's failings: they don't draft well, don't develop well, and don't coach well.
