Darren Muji, of course, and Aaron Glenn getting that one horribly wrong, but hopefully they don't run it back with a horribly wrong decision at quarterback.
with Geno Smith, and I know it's tough to... These are two relatively... Well, one is a new regime with the Giants, obviously, but this is the second year of Mooji and Glenn, and there's a lot of things that I like what both teams are doing, and I don't feel like it's me getting lulled into that false sense of security with these organizations. I actually think that...
All of these moves have been beneficial ones from both general managers up until, or head coaches, up until this point. Darren Muji has set themselves up in a great spot. The hardest thing is to come, though, which is picking the right players.
But with the one-year deals, with the accumulation of draft picks, with the cap space that they have, and I know that they're going to try to win this year and they're trying to get to six or seven wins, but their future and what they have, Darren Mooch did a great job turning this thing around.
I think in the last week they picked up three more draft picks, two compensatory picks, and then another one for Justin Fields. Right, and what I mean turning it around is turning around the situation where, you know, you got more picks, you got more cap space, you're tearing it down, and now you're ready to build it back up. You know, you just kind of poured the foundation.
If you're looking for more horrible analogies, but you're sort of pouring the foundation and hoping that, you know, the next couple of moves you start building upward again. But, I mean, this could be another horrendous year. It's either going to be a team that wins –
You know, maybe seven games and this regime comes back or a team that bottoms out again, you know, two or three wins and then everybody gets wiped out and then they start over with what would be a, you know, at that point it might be an attractive job because of all the picks and who knows who they select this year.
And by the way, you know, like I was saying yesterday to Jerry that Pete Carroll came out and said, you know, he blamed himself for Gino's decline last year with the Raiders.

Chapter 2: What trade did the Jets make regarding Justin Fields?
They hired Chip Kelly. They fired Chip Kelly in the middle of the season. It was not a good fit. There weren't a lot of good players around him. I think they'll – the one thing he will know, and I've told you this about Frank, they'll be more buttoned up. They'll be more organized. They'll be better communication. So the quarterback will benefit from that.
Plus, they've added a number of veterans on this team. And I think the reason that they're doing that is they're trying to get as competitive as they possibly can within the building itself, first and foremost. And then have the right leadership on the field when you're practicing, when you're preparing, when you're watching tape.
You want to make sure that you have guys like Minka Fitzpatrick, Demario Davis. You want to have a veteran quarterback that we were talking about, a presence at quarterback that has pretty much seen everything. And that is Geno, and he's back here for his third time. He's been with the Jets. He's been with the Giants. He's back here now. He's going to have an opportunity to start this year.
I'm sure there's going to be some incentives in this contract. But the Jets are removing a mistake they made last year barely paying Gino that much money, and they're going to have to sign another veteran.
There's going to be another veteran in the mix here, not to compete for the starting job, but would be told that, look, you're going to be the backup, and they're probably going to draft somebody. I don't know if they keep Brady Cook. I'm not sure if they think that he has anything of substance to move forward with.
That would be up for Frank and Darren Bucci to decide whether or not that's going to be workable. But I do think that there has to be yet another veteran that's going to be added to this. Now, I said yesterday and I'll say it again today. Would I be surprised if it's Carson Wentz? I would not. And, you know, I know that's not going to excite people. But it's not going to start. By the way...
This is not about exciting people anymore at the quarterback position until they draft one very high.

Chapter 3: How are the Giants improving their team this season?
Now, if they draft, let's say, Ty Simpson with one of their first-round picks or they trade back into the first round to go get him, then maybe you have your future quarterback if, in fact, they feel like he can be that guy. If not, then you're going to be waiting until next year or later in this draft for a Carson Beck or somebody like that that you can bring in and hopefully develop.
And then next year with all those draft picks and with all that money that they're going to be able to spend in free agency. I'm like, this is where Darren Moochie's winning me over. He's cleaning this whole cap thing up. And next year, with all these one-year contracts, they're going to have such a clean slate. But as we sit here... This time next year, is this coaching staff still here?
I think the GM's going to be here, depending on how he does in this year's draft. He did well last year, and I think most people like the free agents that they've signed, but he's got all this draft capital now. Let's see how he uses it. Let's see what he does to fortify this team and put it on what you'd hope is going to be a bright future with younger players.
We always talk about shots on goal with the quarterbacks and drafting quarterbacks, and the Jets are in the perfect position to do that. They could draft someone out of the first round this year and then still be in a great position to draft a quarterback next year if they don't believe that the guy that they drafted this year is going to be someone that's going to be in their future.
That's what's great about having so many picks and so many high picks is You could afford the opportunity to bring in a quarterback that maybe you don't feel 100% about in the second, third, fourth round just to give it a shot because next year you've got two first-round picks. And then flip into the Giants real quickly, just thinking about what they're doing.
First of all, like I said, it starts with a coach. So the coach brings instant credibility. There's going to be competition on the practice field in the meeting rooms. There's going to be a feel like they are going to be competitive immediately out of the gate. And I know they're going to have a tough schedule like they did last year. The quarterbacks could be a lot better.
They've added fullback to the offense, which I love, especially in the Northeast. I love the I formation. I know that it's a little bit antiquated, but there are a lot of teams that still use it. And a lot of those teams, like San Francisco, are still very successful offenses. When you have that guy that's multidimensional back there, Patrick Ricard is one of those guys, and so is Cam Scadaboo.
Yeah, I mean, they're going to have some bruisers in that backfield. And it just makes your team tougher. It makes who you are more difficult to defend. And, you know, that's exactly what the Seattle Seahawks were with Kenneth Walker III and Charbonnet as their two running backs. Charbonnet obviously got hurt towards the end of the year, and then Kenneth Walker took over.
And, you know, I just think it's the perfect situation, and I also think it's the perfect situation for Patrick Mahomes now to have Kenneth Walker in the backfield. Yeah, I mean, that was a shrewd move. It was something that made lots of sense. Where Jeremiah Love goes in the draft now is even more interesting with the Chiefs going to Kenneth Walker.

Chapter 4: What financial issues are the Bears facing according to Adam Schefter?
That's why I took it. I don't want you to apologize. I really don't. But I'm glad you guys are letting me know. It's like, I mean, it's intense and it keeps coming. It doesn't stop. It might even be getting worse, quite frankly. Thank God. Do you have a meeting today or something? No, I don't. I'm actually just trying. I'm trying to drink this coffee. I'm trying to dull it any way I possibly can.
Yeah. But anyway, so yeah, I think about, Eddie, you about to say something? Yeah, it's the rawness of it, too. It's not cooked garlic, even. Yeah, yeah, yeah, right. Which is a little bit better. All right, guys, I get it. I understand. At least I told you that I took the garlic. Yeah, you could have. Yeah, it's true. I could have said, it's not me. You're blameless in this.
Well, because I told you, I showed him the product that I got and why I got it. You got screwed. That's what it comes down to, you know? I think I'm going to hire Al to see if he can... He's great at that stuff. You good at that? Oh, he's great at it. Firing back at a company? Yeah. Yeah, really good. But do you get stuff out of it? Do you win in these things? Sometimes, yeah.
A lot of times, the company will write back. I mean, this company should write back. I mean, for God's sakes, former NFL MVP is walking around. Well, I'm not here to kill the company at all. I know. But it is definitely false advertising in regards to me taking the tablet. But there could be some fine print, like, you know, for 99% of users. You got to look at the fine print.
You got to look at the fine print. Well, maybe the gel cap is odorless, but then when you take it, you become an odor. But the problem is that... It has given me some acid reflux. Oh, God. That too? Yes. And I've had to burp a few times, and I can taste it. Oh, God. And this is the first time I've actually experienced anything like this. Yeah, I know.
Your doctor told you to take this, and it's been a disaster. Like every negative side effect. Check, check, check. Yeah. So everything that's on their label has basically gone against... Me at least. You got to check the rest of those side effects. You might have a taint infection when you go home. Hi there. This is Al Dukes, producer of the Boomer and Geo show.
Our beloved Boomer Esiason took your product. Not only did he stink like garlic, he also had very bad acid reflux. And now I was just informed that his taint is infected. Please advise. I hope this email reaches you well. Right? Is that what people say? Reaches you well? I hope this email, oh, whatever. Finds you well. Finds you well. Yes, I hope this email finds you well.
I've got a colleague who has an infected taint because of your pills. He stinks like garlic, and he's burping up stomach acid. So please, please advise. What should you do? What should we do? What should you do? Yeah, it's a bad one. This is definitely a bad one. I mean, the fact that this was not something that you looked up on the Internet yourself and it was a recommendation from a doctor.
Because I wanted to do something a little bit more natural. Yeah, more natural. I don't like taking pharmaceuticals at all. You know that? Of course. If you can avoid it, you avoid it. Yes. I mean, you love the science, you love the modern medicine, but if you don't have to take something, you would like not to take something. Exactly. And by the way, I don't really feel like I need something.
