The hour opens with another rough night for the Jets as Justin Fields struggles after one early touchdown drive. Boomer and Gio question how the team can keep putting Fields out there if they want to win and build a real culture. What exactly is the plan for the rest of the season, and how can it involve anything other than moving on at quarterback? Jerry Recco delivers his first update with the sounds of the Patriots beating the Jets, plus Willie Colon saying Fields is not an NFL quarterback. Shane Bowen weighs in on the firing of Brian Daboll while turning the page toward the Packers. Aaron Judge wins the A.L. MVP, Ohtani takes the N.L. version, and Scott Boras is already talking up Cody Bellinger at the winter meetings. Boomer and Gio wrap the hour with a wild fact about Islanders rookie Matthew Schaefer being born the same year Boomer started at WFAN, Gio’s affection for the Spittin Chicklets crew, and a caller pushing the idea of an Alabama quarterback for the Jets.

Boomer and Gio dive deeper into the Giants coaching search. Will ownership lean on a proven veteran or roll the dice on another coordinator? Gio sees a path either way and compares the situation to how the Patriots set things up for Drake Maye. Mike Tomlin’s name has surfaced, but landing him would require a trade. One caller jumps in to tell Boomer he has been praising the Patriots a little too much. Jerry Recco returns with another update featuring the sounds of another Jets loss and another underwhelming outing from Justin Fields. Dexter Lawrence is asked whether he feels any responsibility for Brian Daboll’s firing. A caller to Chris Russo tosses out a head coaching suggestion, and the guys revisit Mike Francesa insisting the Yankees were lucky not to get Ohtani. Aaron Judge reacts to winning the A.L. MVP, and Boomer and Gio talk about Barstool’s Internet Invitational golf tournament. The hour closes with Gio trying to climb out of an 0-5 hole after a brutal week of picks and struggling to decide where

The hour starts with Boomer mentioning an alert on his phone about flash floods in California and admitting he loved the Patriots uniforms last night, calling them fresh. Gio explains that he has been reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald and insists this is what happens to men as they get older. He also talks about trying to get into big streaming shows but struggling whenever real actors show up instead of documentary storytelling. Jerry Recco returns with more sounds from another Patriots win over the Jets, their eighth straight in the matchup. We also hear from Brock Purdy as he prepares to return for the Niners, plus reaction to Aaron Judge winning the A. L. MVP. The hour wraps with Gio discussing two apologies he thought were totally unnecessary. Amon Ra St. Brown apologized if he offended anyone with the Trump dance, and Scott Van Pelt apologized for calling Russell Wilson Mr. Limited. The phones open up for a batch of fun, random calls.

The hour opens with the Patriots extending their run to eight straight wins over the Jets as Drake Maye continues to look fully in command. Boomer and Gio compare that stability to what the Giants must find for Jaxson Dart with their next head coach.

The Patriots push their streak to eight straight over the Jets, and Drake Maye looks completely in command. Boomer and Gio compare that stability to what the Giants need with Jaxson Dart and why pairing him with the right head coach is everything. Gio also makes it clear the Jets should stop running Justin Fields out there and turn to Tyrod Taylor if they want any shot at functioning on offense the rest of the season.

Jerry updates the latest quarterback shuffle as Brock Purdy gets set to return for the Niners, shutting down any speculation about Mac Jones stepping in. The guys react to Purdy’s comments, what his return means for San Francisco’s rhythm, and why Jones never really had a chance to make this a conversation.

Gio explains how he suddenly fell down a rabbit hole reading about the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald. From ship logs to documentaries to late night deep dives, he breaks down why this historic tragedy has become his latest fascination and jokes that this is exactly what happens to men as they get older.
