Sal and BT dove into a fiery discussion about New York sports, contrasting the cautious optimism for the Jets with the Giants' seemingly more desperate approach. They expressed excitement for the NFL season but urged a dose of reality for both fan bases. The hosts were particularly focused on the Giants' decision to name rookie Jaxson Dart the backup QB, with BT calling it a "reckless" move that could put the young player in a difficult position if Russell Wilson struggles or gets hurt, and Sal pushing back, stating that the move shows confidence in the young QB. The conversation also took a sharp turn into a debate over Juan Soto's MVP-caliber season for the Mets, with Sal and BT breaking down his stats and debating whether his performance truly makes him the most valuable player in baseball.
