Transcription

Chapter 1: What praise did John Harbaugh give to his new quarterbacks?

0.031 - 8.765 Gio

John Harbaugh spreading some love to his new quarterbacks yesterday. First day on the job with the Giants, and not just about Jackson Dart, though obviously that is the focal point.

0

8.805 - 31.023 Unknown

Quarterback's kind of important. That's kind of a big deal. And I'm excited about Jackson Dart. I've seen your backup quarterback too, Jameis, up close and personal two years ago. So I saw him complete a bunch of passes. Yeah, I know. There you go. I saw you. Oh, my. Remember that game, right? It was a great game for you.

0

31.564 - 33.847 Gio

Yeah, he carved up the Ravens in Cleveland on that day. Love that.

0

Chapter 2: How does Jameis Winston fit into the Giants' plans?

33.867 - 43.821 Gio

Oh, my. You don't hear that too often. Oh, my. There he is, Jameis. Which Marash was sure to point out before it started that Jameis was the only one wearing shorts yesterday on a nine-degree day.

0

43.881 - 64.003 Al

I did an appearance with Jameis last week. He's hilarious. Oh, yeah. I mean, he's ready for TV right now. I mean, he's only 32 years old, so he still has many years left in the NFL if he wants him. Especially the way he played this year when he got a chance. And he kind of recognizes where he is and what he is and what he's doing. And he wants to be here. He wants to be here.

0

64.023 - 65.867 Gio

And he and Dart seem to get along quite well.

0

65.887 - 66.649 Boomer Esiason

Oh, he loves Jackson.

0

66.709 - 67.23 Al

So that's cool.

67.21 - 72.477 Boomer Esiason

I heard a lot of positive reviews from Kirk Cousins on the NFL today. A lot of people liked him.

72.718 - 73.358 Al

Oh, yeah? Okay.

73.378 - 93.025 Boomer Esiason

Yeah, well, he should be good, yeah. Although, you know, he did the same thing when we sat down at the Super Bowl. It was down in Miami and we had him on. It was right before COVID. He's very awkward in a chair. Like, he's always, like, he's, like, leaning around like this. He's doing this thing. Well, that's up to Drew Kaliske to tell him to sit up straight in his ear. Sit up straight.

93.346 - 96.39 Boomer Esiason

I even asked him off the air because he was waiting. He's like...

Chapter 3: What did Joe Burrow say about the referees' calls?

97.501 - 103.428 Boomer Esiason

You all right? I was like, is that chair okay? Can we get you something else? And he's like, no, yeah, I'm fine. And then I see him on the NFL Today.

0

103.588 - 107.973 Al

He's going, eh. You notice the weirdest things, man.

0

108.113 - 109.374 Boomer Esiason

No, you would have noticed it too, man.

0

Chapter 4: Why did Joe Burrow return to social media after two years?

109.995 - 111.457 Boomer Esiason

If you would have seen it, you would have noticed it.

0

111.537 - 114.44 Gio

It's like a nervous energy sitting in the chair.

0

114.48 - 118.264 Boomer Esiason

Yeah, he doesn't know what to do while sitting. Right. So someone's got to work on that.

0

118.284 - 131.721 Gio

Like Ricky Bobby didn't know what to do with his hands. Yeah, right. Got it. Harbaugh also got a President Trump question during his press conference yesterday referencing the President's recent tweet where he talked about how the Giants should definitely hire him and vice versa.

0

131.741 - 147.283 Unknown

It feels really great. And I'll tell you, I also noticed on that post that he said, John, take the job. So I thought that John Mayer might have something to do with that. I don't know. But it's cool, and it's sports. You know, it's sports. And everybody's excited. Everybody follows it.

147.303 - 150.769 Gio

Kind of downplayed the politics side of it. It's going to be huge.

151.01 - 151.13 Unknown

Huge.

151.15 - 156.419 Gio

Everyone's watching. Huge. Everyone loves it. It's the biggest sport in the world, all that good stuff.

Chapter 5: What comments did Baker Mayfield make about Kevin Stefanski?

157.041 - 164.734 Gio

Here's Harbaugh on getting to know Joe Shane throughout this process. Had glowing reviews of him. Guy knows his football. He's a junkie, so they hit it off.

0

164.714 - 175.611 Unknown

He was impressive to me, and it was just really a joy to talk football and really dig into some of the plans that we might have going forward, see what we can build here. So I was impressed. Save that.

0

175.991 - 183.282 Al

Save that. Okay. If we can play that next year at this time, then things are going to be in good shape.

0

183.342 - 206.162 Gio

Yes. 100%. So now that they got the contract signed, it was a nice kumbaya, at least publicly for them yesterday. Not as impressive were Shane's opening remarks to kick off the festivities yesterday. We covered that a bit last hour. This one combines Shane right into our guy, the Chevy regional zone manager, Rick Wilde, circa 2014 World Series MVP award presentation. He's a proven winner.

0

207.307 - 235.946 Unknown

And when we set out to do this, we knew that John was going to be the perfect person for the New York Giants. When we did our research, what continually came up was the latest and greatest technology in our truck lineup, which is the all-new 2015 Chevy Colorado. It combines class-winning, leading technology and stuff with Wi-Fi powered by OnStar.

236.227 - 237.148 Gio

He had a tough time.

237.168 - 237.648 Tiki Barber

Hey, hold on.

237.848 - 239.25 Al

Johnny and Hazlitt, what's happening?

240.11 - 257.547 Tiki Barber

Hey, what's up, guys? I may have an explanation for the whole Joe Shane out of breath thing. Kiki said yesterday, I believe after they interviewed him, that apparently it's a very long walk from the field house. Oh, come on, John. I mean, he's a young man. Hear me out. Hear me out.

Chapter 6: How did Baker Mayfield respond to criticism from the Atlanta Journal-Constitution?

257.746 - 266.103 Tiki Barber

But if you also notice, they started the feed a few minutes late. I almost guarantee he was running late from that office, and he ran over there. Okay.

0

266.123 - 271.554 Gio

John, be that as it may, did Tiki, did John Harbaugh not make the same walk from the field house?

0

271.574 - 279.13 Tiki Barber

Not if he wasn't in the offices and was rushing either with his speech or something like that. Oh, boy. I feel like Shane was running late himself.

0

279.65 - 285.839 Gio

It doesn't matter if they started an extra... Last-minute edit to his 80-second speech that he gave? Yeah. You know what?

0

285.859 - 286.901 Al

I just believe it was nerves.

286.961 - 287.922 Gio

Yeah.

287.942 - 295.654 Al

And it was like, you got to understand, this was a big room. The owners were in there. All the media were there. A lot of giant players were there. The giant front office was there.

295.674 - 296.955 Gio

Dignitaries, as they like to say.

297.116 - 298.738 Al

A lot of dignitaries. Was Phil Simms there?
