What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
It's the Boomer and Geo podcast from WFAN. And we're coming to you live from the Build 4 Tough Studio. Boomer Esaias and Greg Giannotti. It's Boomer and Geo on the fans. Simulcast across the country on CBS Sports Network and wherever you're on the free Odyssey app. Good Friday morning, a feel-good football Friday championship weekend, championship Sunday. We got the helmets in front of us here on the desk. You can see them on CBS Sports Network. I'm sure Al put it out on social media as well. I got the Rams and the Seahawks in front of me. Boomer's got the Pats and the Broncos in front of him as we've really not talked about these matchups all that much on the show because we've had John Harbaugh and we had New York Mets stuff and
Everything this week, the Knicks that has distracted us from it, so we will get into it heavy today. Some more coaching stuff going on out there. The Baltimore Ravens hired Jesse Minter. That was another one that we actually got right. That was a bunch we got wrong, but so far... We've got that one right, and we got Harbaugh right, and we had Jeff Halfley right going to Miami.
What are the key matchups in the AFC and NFC championship games?
So it's all about these relationships out there in the NFL, and John Harbaugh continues to get his way within the Giants organization, which is what we expected. Exciting stuff for them. Good morning, Boomer. How are you? Yeah, good morning, Jay. We made it. we did so yeah last night uh at tellers next door it was a great night for our foundation and uh just want to say thank you to greg buttle and for sean o'hara trekking all the way from jersey franklin lakes all the way out to islip new york on a thursday afternoon not easy but uh it certainly was a great night we uh both got in very late last night uh but we wanted to show up for a football friday with these uh these two championship games on sunday the first one being the broncos and
Patriots at three o'clock on CBS and then of course after that on Fox will be the Rams and the Seahawks and to think that these are the four teams uh that were left or are left it was amazing and listening to everybody's different perspective last night at our chalk talk at Tellers when you listen to Sean he has a perspective you listen to Buttle he has a perspective you know most of the people that were sitting at the table that I was at last night Everybody has a different viewpoint of these two games, and it's really amazing when you think about it because the number one topic I felt like last night that kept coming up was Sam Darnold. Sam Darnold, Sam Darnold, Sam Darnold. And the fact that he was a Jet, and when he was a Jet, he was 20 years old, and he was in way over his head, and now he's on his fifth team, and now he's leading his team.
He's one step away from the Super Bowl, which is really remarkable when you think of his career arc. Yeah, and that was, I think, the reason why we talk so much about Sam is because Greg Buttle and Sean O'Hara had different opinions on it. Greg Buttle said that Sam Darnold was the most talented quarterback he had seen in a Jets uniform since Joe Namath, and he didn't have the right coaching, and he was so young and all of these things. By the way, you think I should have taken that as an insult? Uh, no. I don't know whether or not I was going to chime in on that one and say, hey, hey, meathead.
Ha!
Yeah, he was trying to go after you, but no, I mean, I don't think you take that one as an insult. But Sam, of course, ends up going to, you know, after the Carolina disaster, he gets with Kyle Shanahan, then he gets with Kevin O'Connell, and now he's out there with Clint Kubiak and the Seahawks. So Sean O'Hara is basically saying that you blitz Sam Darnold, he turns the ball over. He had two turnovers in the previous game against the last game against the Rams. Two turnovers last year in the playoffs as a member of the Minnesota Vikings against the Rams. And now he's playing the Rams again. And if you blitz this guy, and Chris Shula should, then there's prone for turnovers for Sam. And will he, as Sean put it, pee down his leg again in a big situation when he's under pressure?
