The Season with Peter Schreeger is a production of the NFL in partnership with iHeartRadio. What's Up, Everybody, Welcome to the Season with Peter Schreger. We're about the midway point of the twenty twenty four NFL season. I'm Peter Schreger. I host Good Morning Football NFL Network. I also am one of the analysts on Fox NFL Kickoff on Sundays, and at the midway point of the season, I always like to take a second to look around see who's doing what, who's been a surprise, who's been a disappointment, and also what the story of the week is. And this week we go to Indianapolis, a place where Pat McAfee usually is the voice of reason and where we have such luminaries as Bob Kravitz over the years and Steven Holder, and I like to parachute in once in a while to my two cents on a situation, and this Anthony Richardson deal is worthy of a monologue. I think because I sit in a role as a national follower slash insiders slash analyst of those sport as a morning show host, I do this five days a week, three hours a day, and as a Sunday Insider, I am trying to text everyone I can within every organization to get some new piece of news. I've never never in my life in football seen a quarterback tap out of a play and walk off the field. And then in the post game, as Anthony Richardson did did say, I was just exhausted. I needed a playoff. The response from X players is what's so fascinating, because I like to think I've got a pulse of the league, a pulse of the game, and a pulse of how people would react. And I think a lot of people afterwards were like, that is an atrocity, and that is something that can be done. And I take it with more irrational thinking. I'm like, oh, relax, he needed a playoff. He just ran around thirty yards. And even Brian Flores this week came out was like, did you see the play? He was And I figured, all right, voices of reason will come out. I couldn't have been more off every X player that I speak with, every position. It was as if what this guy did tapping his helmet was breaking some unwritten rule that is just a line too far, a crime to humanity on the football field. To tap out, and that if you do one thing as a player, you show toughness and you fight it out, and if you do one thing as a player, you grinn and Barrett, And if you do one thing as a player, you fight and crawl and get through it so that they can never take you off the field. Chase Daniel was near tears on Monday, and I'm like in my head, I'm like, oh, come on, stop being so dramatic, dude. And yet unanimously I talk to these ex players over text and they're like, oh, no, that guy's done. I can't I would never No, Like I can't look in the huddle again. I'm like, really, it's one of those rare instances where the delta between me, as you know, analyst, insider, et cetera, thinking I've got a feel for everything in football can still be surprised twenty years into this thing by the ex players who are so taken aback. And if you think X players have a voice, I am sure the text chains of current players is probably vibrant as well. Is it a forgivable mistake? I would like to think so. Here was Colt center Ryan Kelly responding to the Anthony richardson tap of the helmet calling out of a game on Sunday.

Yeah, I mean I think you know, we had a conversation about it, and you know, I think you noticed not the standard that you know that he needs to play up to and the rest of the team holds them too, And kind of leave the conversation that we had at that. But you know, I'm sure he's gonna take some criticism for that. It's just rightfully so right. I mean, that's a tough, tough look. But I'm also you know, he's out there giving it all for his team, right, and it's not always pretty sometimes, you know, an offensive loll the last couple of weeks, you know, just having a hard time getting going at times.

I thought we did some good things in the game.

I thought we did some good things in the game.

But if anybody ever questions how hard he plays, I don't think that that's the case. I mean, if you watch this film, you know, surely you know we didn't move the ball effectively at times. But I mean he's giving it everything for his teammates. So he's young. I'm sure it's a learning moment for him. And leave at that.

I listened to a guy like Kelly who is a longtime veteran on that team who has not had a ton of success. I think of Quentin Nelson, who's now been there since the sa Quon Josh Allen, Lamar Jackson, Sam Darnold, Baker Mayfield draft and thinking about the lack of success he's had in his career. I think of Chris Ballard, who's been the GM for eight years and it's had just about every different player in the NFL suit up as quarterback for the Indianapolis Colts in that time span since Andrew Luck abruptly retired from the game. I think about all those guys, and now we have Joe Flacco at quarterback again in Indianapolis. And there's two ways to look at this. One of them is always play the best player, get him out there. And if you think Joe Flacco gives you the best chance to win in Indianapolis tapping of the helmet or not, you play Joe Flacco. He's earned that. Or you think of it long term and you think about the potential long term damage of benching a player like Anthony Richardson, a fourth overall pick who's very green, who I think started thirteen games at the University of Florida, and you think about does this scar him forever? I do want to poke a hole in that ladder thinking because there's a lot of people who say that, how could you bench the kid? And what's the point You're not winning the Super Bow? Why would you put Flacco in? There used to be a time where quarterbacks were allowed to be benched without everyone being in hysterics over it. I think this is a redux of my monologue when Bryce Young was benched and everyone put on, you know, their their white dresses and clutched their pearls and said, how dare we the humanity, the inhumanity, the cruelty of benching a quarterback. I grew up a Giants fan. Phil Simms was benched for Scott Brunner. I work with Terry Bradshaw. Terry Bradshaw had to fight and claw to become the starting quarterback of the Pittsburgh Steelers after losing his job as a first overall pick. The NFL history books are littered with situations where early draft picks had to fight for their job. Do you realize that Troy Aikman was the first overall pick and was fighting with Steve Walsh for a gig because Steve Walsh was who Jimmy Johnson at Miami and they got him in the supplemental draft, and Steve Walsh and a lot of Cowboys fans was the opinions of the better option than Troy Aikman, and that Steve Walsh got a ton of starts. Steve McNair didn't start that first year, Chris Chandler did. And when Steve McNair went in and struggled, they would consider going to Chandler. Michael Vick didn't start that first year, Chris Chandler did, same side of thing. They would go back and forth. It wasn't always this case where once you start the rookie, it's just let him take the wheel and drive and just we gotta just go through the pen, and gosh, if you bench him, you know, can you imagine the psychological drama that will go down if he has to go back on the bench. I think in this instance, tapping the helmet might have been what did him in in the end. But I also think in this instance they see it every day. Joe Flacco gives those veterans and those players in the room a better chance to win, just as in Carolina. When Andy Dalton was inserted for Bryce Young, there was no great outcry. And when the Carolina Panthers won that game coming out of that thing, the game ball was given to Dave Kanalis, the head coach, for that gutsy decision. I have no problem with the Indianapolis Colts going to Joe Flacco, and I have no problem with the door being left open for Anthony Richardson to come back into the lineup at some point. I don't know when we got to this point in the NFL's quarterback process and progression of development. Deal is that once you get the starting nod, you can never be replaced. Once upon a time, quarterbacks did get replaced, and in this case, whether you believe Anthony Richardson is the inferior quarterback to Joe Flacco or not, the Colts coaching staff obviously doesn't want to bench their starter. They're doing this for a reason. They see a light, they see a chance to win, and they see Joe Flacco as the better way to get there. That's Indianapolis. I have not been in Indiapolis since the combine. I couldn't tell you what the pulse of the fans are there. I live in New York. I'm here every day. New York is going through one of the great pendulum moments in sports fandom. Let me take you through it. The Knicks had just traded for Karl Anthony Towns, the Rangers were starting their season, the Liberty were winning the Championship, and the Mets and Yankees were both in the playoffs. The Giants were fresh off of win over Seattle, and the Jets had just beaten the Patriots. This was all about a month ago. In the last few weeks, the Jets cannot find a win. Greg'szer line cannot kick the ball through it upright, and Aaron Rodgers looks like a forty one year old quarterback coming off of an achilles injury. The Giants cannot find a touchdown if they were paid to do so. Daniel Jones can't win in prime time. Both teams are two and six and in the very basement of their standings. The Mets have since been eliminated, and the Yankees had lost three games to start the World Series to the former crosstown rivals, them Bums, the Brooklyn Dodgers. And yet, as we record this on a Wednesday morning, there is a glimmer of hope, a glimmer of light. The Yankees got the best of the Los Angeles Dodgers on Tuesday night. The Giants can play spoiler to the Washington Commanders this weekend, and the Jets host the Texans and are somehow favorites on Thursday evening. I don't know when you're listening to this, and you might be listening to it over the weekend, but we're here on a Wednesday morning. We're recording here, and I felt like there was no better guests to bring on than the guy whose podcast I listened to when I wake up after a big New York sports moment. This used to be the Mike Francessa Chris Russo slot. This used to be no matter what, I'm listening to Francessa and I'm finding a way. I have now since been converted to a JJ guy. That might be my allegiance to Bill Simmons and the Ringer. It might be my allegiance to talent and quality. He's also a Dolphins fan. But just wait till you get the thick New York accent and the entire JJ Jastremsky experience. John Jastremsky's our guest. He's gonna give us the pulse of New York right after this. All right, our guest is one of my favorite people in sports media. We've become friends over the last few years. He's a fellow Brooklyn resident, and I think he's now the voice of New York sports. I see him on S and Y in a suit and tie like a gentleman, and then I see him on the Ringer podcast New York New York, which has been coming. I go to destination every morning after these Yankees and Mets games, and he's dressed like the casual fan that I know he has deep in his heart. It is JJ, mister John Jastremsk JJ. What's up man, Trex? Thanks for the con introduction number one, number two. Thanks for listening.

It's been super fun over the last month, really over the last twelve months into all these fun, fascinating New York sports angles and hey, we live to die another day. I think Simmons booked me after Game four thinking shrikes he was gonna get a sleep. Anthony Vaulpi and Austin Wells had o their plans, but we're fired up, man.

We're recording this on Wednesday mornings, So if you're listening now and it's Thursday or Friday or Saturday, I that's old news. The Dodgers won. Okay, let me get this moment in time for us as Yankees people and as New Yorkers. They're down three to zero. I was in the building on Tuesday night. It was as dark and depressing a place. I'm sorry, Monday night, it was as dark and depressing a place as you could imagine. Walking out of there, taking the four train home, just selling faces. We're gonna get swept by the Dodgers. They're gonna do a champagne parade on the field on the Yankee Stadium, and it's another series that's gonna end with the opposing team celebrating in this stadium. And then Tuesday night, after being down two to one, gets it going. They put the runs on the board and then they pile it on to Honeywell late. And I know this is traditionally a football podcast, but like you feel it in New York in a way that I can't explain it. As we record this at noon on Wednesday, that like it's almost the guys having a cardiac event, and he gets to the fibrillators and suddenly the city's alive again. And you were in the building Monday. You're gonna be in the building tonight. Take us to the ethos of a New York sports fan as you're hitting the brink of extinction and then you got one last fight. We're not dead yet.

There is a different viob There is a different buzz when you have teams in the baseball playoffs going deeper and deeper into the playoffs. Right like you're walking around. You saw all the med hats a week two ago. Now you've seen all the Yankee hats out about. And the new Yankee Stadium doesn't necessarily rock the way the old plays did. Now that said, Game three, you were there. I was there thirty minutes before the game. Legend seats packed, every seat packed, everybody is rip rawing, ready to go, Jeter throwing out the first pitch, the awful Fat Joe concert.

Dude, it was so bad and I want Joe. This is the anti fat I think it's still going. I think it was mean to the viewers and listeners at home, the high after Derek Jeter throws out a first pitch and his shirt and tie and is hugging his daughter's Generations of Yankees fans in tears over this moment of Jeter throwing out this first pitch at Yankee Stadium in the World Series, and then to answer the ice Cube concert, which was a home run game too, the Yankees trot out that Joe who's in New York and Bronx legend, but he's kind of on the pitching mound and you're like, don't go on the mound, and then it piss goes on and on and on, and it's the vibe did have a certain feel at the Jeter moment, and I was like, let's play ball.

And then there was the concert.

And then there was the concert.

Yeah, no question, and it was the perfect time for me to say, all right, I'm gonna go get myself some food and a cocktail and be in my seat and ready to go. And I was there for the first pitch, but like all of that emotion went completely out the window when Freddie Freeman goes Yachtzi and it was no doubt the minute the ball left his bat, it was leaving the yard. Judge strikes out in the first inning and it's like, oh, here we go. This game is an absolute dud, and Peter it felt like it was gonna go that way again in Game four, where it's like this guy's gonna do it again.

And for one night, it's the line of the Jersey kid who idolized Derek Jeter, who's now playing shortstop for the New York Yankees, who has a base running blunder in his second inning that you think is going to be costly. Everybody forgets about that. When the ball leaves his bat, it's a grand slam.

And you went into this on your podcast, which I'm telling you is appointment listening, even if you're not a New York sportsman, just to get the pulse in the morning. Take us through the history of other teams dancing and celebrating and doing champagne showers in this building.

So it went in the old Yankee Stadium for like an eternity when nobody had celebrated on the field. I think it was eighty one the Dodgers did, and then the next celebration was Beckett on three days rest.

Ever, three days rest, and Peter, they were up three to two in the series. But mckeanny's smoking cigars and he's like, nah, man, Will had to rip. We're not getting to a Game seven at Yankee Stadium. And we know what happened. But then there started to be this sort of hey, way too many teams to celebrate at Yankee Stadium. Red Sox SO four, Cleveland and seven and in the new stadium. It's happened way too often. Tiger's in eleven. I was there for that Astros in fifteen Wildcard game. I was there for that eighteen the Red Sox on what was a bang bang play and they go to replay and it was like literally they had like a bang bang Laberg Juniez ground bawl.

Ever, three days rest, and Peter, they were up three to two in the series. But mckeanny's smoking cigars and he's like, nah, man, Will had to rip. We're not getting to a Game seven at Yankee Stadium.

We saw the replay. I looked at my wife and my sister, I go get up, will we even down? I'm not gonna watch this. It's over. And then it happened in twenty twenty two with the Astros.

We saw the replay. I looked at my wife and my sister, I go get up, will we even down? I'm not gonna watch this. It's over. And then it happened in twenty twenty two with the Astros.

So what I'm getting at here is it's happened way too much for a franchise that shouldn't necessarily be allowing these sort of self obrations to happen on their field in front of their fans.

So I don't want to see it in Game five with the Dodgers.

So I don't want to see it in Game five with the Dodgers.

Yeah, it's been such a good series. I actually was really impressed with the Dodger fan turnout. It's been pretty civil too. I mean again, they were up three to zero when I was there, but they not only have shown their faces, they've come in mass and in my section at least, and I was sitting up in the two hundreds. I'm not a Howdy Toddy. I'm in the legend syat or anything like that, and I'm not in the press box and I don't cover baseball. There were a lot of Dodgers fans and they were confidently walking around there's no danger or harm and maybe tonight it'll be a little different in the park where I'll be going and so will you. But like, it's kind of cool seeing these two teams, traditional franchises, and of course the history with the Brooklyn Dodgers moving out that there is this fan base that either A flew in or b. There are a lot of New York City and New York Area Dodger fans that still exists from generations to go.

It's badass.

It's badass.

And you know, Peter, for the last seven years, you've been taking Yankees Dodgers like this goes back to twenty seventeen when the Dodgers took care of the Cubs and the Yankees miraculously won three straight games against the Astros, and you're like, wow, twenty seventeen, we're gonna get it. It's gonna be Dodgers, it's gonna be Yankees. Just like the old times. And every year since it's been like this preseason narrative, this mid season narrative that you don't get the payout. We finally got the payout this year. And it's awesome, man. I mean, all the star power, all the history. You know, we didn't live through the forties and the fifties in Brooklyn.

Yeah, that's what I mean.

Yeah, that's what I mean.

We don't even have memories of Reggie Jackson and Great Nettles and Mike Torres were of a different generation. So to kind of rekindle that with the Yankees and the Dodgers, Yeah, it's it's good for baseball, it's good for New York and LA. And you kind of nailed it all of these games, despite the three to one sort of margin outside of Game four, and even Game four because it was a lot of window dressing. It was a close game until the Yankees blow it open. All these games at least have been coming down.

At a wire. It's not been a one sided series, if that makes sense.

At a wire. It's not been a one sided series, if that makes sense.

And it's been really cool. Aesthetically. I always love the Rose Bowl because you see in the Rose Bowl when it's USC versus UCLA, you see the sun setting and you see those beautiful uniforms of the USC the red in the gold, and then of course you get the UCLA with the blue and the gold, and it just looks great together. Before Game four, we're out there in the stands and both teams in their full uniforms, the pinstripes on the Yankees and the gorgeous gray and blue of the Dodgers. It's on the field with that pristine field. I hate to get poetic about sports, sounds like moneyball, but to see those uniforms, those crisp colors, like it's really traditional. We don't have some zany team with purple logos and crazy throwback third uniforms. Like it's Yankees Dodgers, and that's the way it should be.

And you know, I went out Shrigs in nineteen Yankees played the Dodgers. I think was their first time back at Dodgers Stadium in a while because now interleague play they play every single year.

Do we have to do?

We have to ruin the beautiful aesthetic with these dopey uniforms that neither one of these teams is gonna wear. So yeah, dude, like it's just it's like Americana, It's like the way it should be.

Want to be up, We'll be ready. I'll be battling you and cousin Sally and the Ringer gambling show. We'll be welling right up against you guys. It'll be perfect. I'm gonna say a couple names and you just do your spiel on what you think. Aaron Judge right now, your thoughts.

Peter.

Peter.

You know how it is, when you're the captain of the Yankees, what you do from April to September doesn't mean as much as what you do in the month of October. And this is ridiculously unfair because I'd argue you're a Fox colleague. Mister Jeter is probably one of the most clutch players I've seen in any sport. And the amazing thing about Jeter is, you know, you see great athletes, right whether it's Michael Jordan or Tom Brady, they're kind of exemplary regular season their exemplary postseason. Jun is a first bout Hall of Famer, but he actually raised his level of play in the biggest of games, and Judge has not done that. He needs to do that for the I know I'm getting cliche. It matters, man, when you're the captain of the Yankees, you gotta perform in October.

Case closed. I look at the scoreboard the other night and they just listed his height and weight. He's six eight, two eighty and he hit fifty eight home runs this year And it's like, brother, that stuff's all in the past. If you could have a postseason moment, if you could have a World Series moment, if you could have a big home run that puts this team over the top. Like, that's what Matt, that's what you know. I know his history and his post playing career was littered with other stuff. But like Jim Lyrits is forever a Giant's legend, a Yankees legend, forever, forever. You got fans who would say Scott Brocchus is forever a Yankees legend. For that series against the Padre is, Like that's when we remember this stuff because I guess all the other stuff gets diluted. Yes he's a Hall of Famer, and yes he's an MVP, and yes, all this stuff, but without that October moment for Yankees fans, they're spoiled like they need the October.

Well, and that's what you judged on. That's what Yankee captains a judge on. That's what monument mark.

I mean, that's what you're judged Onne, So got it. It's time for Aaron Judge to go and do it.

Yeah, okay, so Aaron Judge, Another Aaron, Aaron Boone. Where's he stand right now with Yankees fans?

Yeah, okay, so Aaron Judge, Another Aaron, Aaron Boone. Where's he stand right now with Yankees fans?

So right now, mister Boone needs to go and win a World Series to be fully embraced, and he is going to have job security.

So right now, mister Boone needs to go and win a World Series to be fully embraced, and he is going to have job security.

He has jobs. He probably has had more job.

He has jobs. He probably has had more job.

Security than Supreme Court justices because there are a couple of years, Peter, where the Yankees easily could have been within their rights to go and make a managerial change, losing a wildcard game, that the Red Sox getting swept by the astros Hey. Last year, they missed the postseason all together. Now, positives for Aaron Boone. Guys love them, there's no getting around that his clubhouse absolutely adores them. But there's a sense of baseball IQ and fundamentals that have been lacking from even a team that's gone to the World Series this year. I mean, we saw last night with Volpi, they made two key eras in Game one that I think were lost in the shuffle by his terrible managerial decision to go with nest de Cortez over Tim Hill. But I think Boone is the sort of manager that, yes, is going to be back next year because the Yankees are in the World Series. They did something they haven't done in fifteen years. But there's a massive Yeah. But where Joe Torri won Girardi in his second year one, you're the manager of the Yankees for a long period of time and you don't have a World Series championship, Peter. You don't get that sort of job security in most places, you know, especially with a franchise that used to fire managers like there was no tomorrow.

So he's not exactly a beloved figure. You win and that changes, yeah.

So he's not exactly a beloved figure. You win and that changes, yeah.

Uh.

Uh.

And of course we grew up in the Billy Martin era where Steinbrenner would fire higher Billy Martin every other year, and you had some some different stump Merrills and don Zimmers all the way up until we finally had Joe Torre as the manager. The last name I'm going to give you before we end on Yankees and quickly hit some some New York football. Does the name Austin Copa Bianco mean anything to you?

Is that the gentleman who yanked the ball out of Mookie Bets Clve yesterday?

Is that the gentleman who yanked the ball out of Mookie Bets Clve yesterday?

Of course, let me give you, let me give you, let me give you some context here. His name is Austin Copo Bianco, which you could not make up if you paid me a million dollars based on the image. Uh, immediately on Good Morning Football, I say that is the Halloween costume of the year. You're going as Austin Copa Bianco and his sunglasses at night friend. And immediately everyone's like, take it down, trigger, how dare you glorify this animal? I'm like, guy, just to say it. It's a funny moment in time that said, tweet history or not. And I don't know where this guy's from or what his story is. That's his name, and apparently his Twitter handle leaves a lot to be desired. Where do you come out? Because Sterling and Waldman last night, we're not too or none too pleased with that behavior. And yet there are some Yankee fans, a lot of guys that will see on the street here. I'll be like that actually kickstarted the team a little bit.

Hey, listen, if it kickstarts the team, if you tell me they're going to win an extra games, So we got to sacrifice one particular fan to every game to try to get a ball out of Mookie's cloth or somebody's cloth for that matter. You know, I'm all for it, but listen, initially watching it, Peter, I was like.

Mookie's in the stands. That's the you know, like you see you don't see the replay.

Mookie's in the stands. That's the you know, like you see you don't see the replay.

So when I first thought is, hey, you go into stands, that that ball is just as much the fans as it is the players.

And then you got like this sticky You got like the sticky fingers of the guy trying to get the pot.

It was. It was he had a sliding glove on, which it is like what like high level high school players or college or minor league players, which gives me the feeling that Austin Coppobianco thought at any given moment he might be inserted into the game, the Yankees might need him because he had a professional glove on. He's a four hundred dollars glove on.

It was like Jim Harbaugh. You know, maybe he was taking notes from Jim Harbaugh and your buddy who brings the glove to the game. You never know what can happen when you go to a baseball game. I did not anticipate, though, that some Yankee fans sticky fingers would be in mooki BET's hand, and you have the image that will be seen forever now, Mookie Bets basically like, dude, get off of me.

That you could be pleasantly surprised. That's fine. I do know, though, that you host this podcast and you're on sn Y all the time, and you've been on Wfan, and you've got this great New York listenership. As fourth Wall is torn down, are you better as a radio host and better as a content creator in the Joe Beningo ethos of the world is melting and they suck and we're gonna crush these teams. Or is it better when they're winning football. For you, coming on to the airwaves as someone who is serving the fans and serving as the voice of the New York Sports Seed.

But here's what I know, Peter. If the Jets and the Giants aren't winning, and right now they're on their way, the Jets are two and six, how they're favored against the Euston Texans. I don't know.

But here's what I know, Peter. If the Jets and the Giants aren't winning, and right now they're on their way, the Jets are two and six, how they're favored against the Euston Texans. I don't know.

And I think that's what makes this Jets season so disturbing because last year at this time they had all sorts of problems. Zach Wilson was not exactly lighting the world on fire, but Halloween weekend they beat the Giants.

They were playing games before Thanksgiving that had meaning and significance. Now basically the Jets have to go and pull an inside straight or royal flush to go and get themselves in the postseason. And that's with Aaron Rodgers's with Devonte Adams, that's with Tyron Smith and all of this talent they've added to the team. Peter, I was texting you back in the summertime. You're like, dude, I thought voted the talent they voted, but the you know what it is though the vibe sometimes I thought the vibe was.

High, the vibe was right. I was there, I was on the grounds. I don't regret my decision at all. These losses have been crazy, the Zerline misses. You talked about Aaron Boone having a lifetime appointment as as a manager for Greg Zerline to I think he's still here still, Why, Like.

High, the vibe was right. I was there, I was on the grounds. I don't regret my decision at all. These losses have been crazy, the Zerline misses. You talked about Aaron Boone having a lifetime appointment as as a manager for Greg Zerline to I think he's still here still, Why, Like.

Why, I don't get it. I don't get it, And not only that, it's cost him a couple of games. But then like bad teams find ways to lose. That's that's kind of my narrative, right, So it's like if it's not the kicker. It's Aaron Rodgers throwing a late interception against the Vikings in a game the Vikings were begging, begging the Jets to say, here, take it the Buffalo game, that New England, you have that delay game on the two point playoff five and then allowed Jacoby Brissett, who is a backup quarterback with no receivers, to go right down the field and listen, I was not the biggest Bobby Salad guy.

I was not.

I was not.

I would have made a coaching change in the offseason, as unfair as that might have been. Putting Old Brook in this spot has hurt the defense because she's supposed to be drawing up the defense and doing all the things necessary for the defense, and he's got to be focused on tenzillion other things. It's just it keeps building and adding, and it's like, well, when is it going to stop? And you could see the body language within that awful.

They used three timeouts in the first Quarter's let's come on, you know, uh, let's wrap with this team. The New York Giants Daniel Jones, Joe Shane and Brian Dable get essentially a vote of confidence that could always be pulled owners or pickle from John Marra before the loss to the Steelers primetime, but Daniel Jones is now one in fourteen in primetime. Sekwon Barkley still has more touchdowns at MetLife this season than Daniel Jones does. And I said it on Good Morning Football without even looking before the game, I could tell you Daniel Jones against the Steelers on Monday Night is going to go oh fifteen to twenty five, have two backbreaking turnovers and maybe score a touchdown and on a big third and eight is gonna fumble or is going to complete a pass for five yards? That's not enough and they're gonna have to you know, kick a field goal and miss it or air punt it away. You're six of Daniel Jones as someone who creates content and is often in touch with the guys on the street. The thoughts on the Giants and Daniel Jones as we head towards Week nine of the NFL season and the Washington Commanders, a team they used to own, is coming and field themselves.

They used three timeouts in the first Quarter's let's come on, you know, uh, let's wrap with this team. The New York Giants Daniel Jones, Joe Shane and Brian Dable get essentially a vote of confidence that could always be pulled owners or pickle from John Marra before the loss to the Steelers primetime, but Daniel Jones is now one in fourteen in primetime.

I think the Giant fan is ready for a new quarterback, but I think the Giant fan has been ready for a new quarterback. Really going back to mid season of last year, when it looked like in twenty two everything had clicked for Jones.

He has a career best season.

They win a playoff game against Minnesota and it's like, Wow, maybe Brian Dabele has unlocked him. Maybe he's going to take that next step as a quarterback. He can't stay on the field, and you nailed it with the Pittsburgh game. It's become very predictable how the Giants are gonna lose. Yeah, they're going to be in a game. They're going to move the ball between the twenties. They're not going to finish drives. There's going to be a big turnover. There's going to be a.

Big booboo, and that's how you're gonna lose.

Big booboo, and that's how you're gonna lose.

Like the Bengals game, the Steelers game, Like I've seen this game now so many times for the Giants over the last couple of years. Last year in Buffalo, even though Daniel Jones didn't play that game, but you get my drift. They wanted to take a quarterback. We all watched Hard Knocks, we all watched it. It was on full display for everybody in New York and everybody for America to see.

To their credit, they were very big on Jaden Daniels.

To their credit, Hey, Joe Shane's kid, he could come and work for the Dolphins and help evaluate talent because he was all over getting Jade Daniels in.

Listen, they got themselves a really good player in the weak neighbors.

It's not like they didn't get a high quality, high caliber guy, but they need a quarterback, and that voted confidence.

Peter. I know you're right.

Owners are fickle. They changed their mind all the time. Maybe I'm missing this. Maybe I'm an idiot here. I think they're coming back.

I really do.

I really do.

I think they're of the mindset. Mara is like, look, I think these guys no personnel. I think that Brian Dable knows offensive coaching. I'm gonna give them a chance to go and get their quarterback and see what they can do. And inevitably, that's to me the most interesting element that's left of this giant year, because you know the Jets in the AFC, the way the AFC shakes out, there are like four really really good teams and then there's a bunch of maybe you're not getting any NFC. The NFC is loaded, making the playoffs is going to be so much more difficult, and where the Giants did at two and six, that's the most intriguing element to me. When Daniel Jones gets benched, then it's going to be because that whole injury, you know, is better than made the injury clause and not wanting to be on the hook for next year and where they're going to be pigging in the draft and who the quarterback is going to be. But yeah, the Giant fan wants a new quarterback.

No, I hear you, if you really are serious. I like the Columbus crew. I don't even ask. I don't love soccer, but I always like to pop in and say this, Mandy, I let wear the jersey on air. They're defending champions. They've got this great, rich fan base. Red Bull came in last night being a one nothing on their home field. A lackluster effort from the crew. So we hit all sports here on the season with Peter Schrager, and that's my analysis there, JJ, real quick, give us the full, full, full line of where we can see you and including on Sunday mornings, which I gotta tell you, I'm on Fox NFL Kickoff, but I see clips of you and Rahem Palmer and sal and Simmons popping in and it's quite enjoyable.
