BT & Sal dive into the latest Giants drama, dissecting Carl Banks' surprisingly direct and fiery critique of Dexter Lawrence's flagging performance, and question if the verbal shots are a desperate attempt at motivation. They also analyze reports surrounding a potential Kayvon Thibodeaux trade, asking if the Giants should commit long-term to the defensive end given the unit's underperformance.

Plus, the guys recap the "Perfect Parlay" segment, where Hoff holds the lead despite a bad week and Sal laments getting burned by a Jets comeback. John Minko stops by for the "Call of the Day" and a funny-but-sad story about his final day at The Fan. The show closes with a passionate debate on a potential new baseball rule limiting intentional walks, debating if the need for entertainment outweighs pure strategy (and whether it's even enforceable).
