The Giants somehow escaped with a 27-27 tie against the Commanders, the Jets finally returned to the win column, and the Yankees' season ended in a disappointing playoff sweep. There's plenty for New York sports fans to argue about this week.

LeeJay returns with plenty to say about the Jets' 17-12 win over Cleveland. He pushes back against fans and analysts dismissing the victory, defends Aaron Glenn against calls for his firing, and questions whether the offense can improve enough to compete with New England.

Will and LeeJay break down one of the strangest finishes you'll see in an NFL game. How much blame does Jayden Daniels deserve for Washington's late-game clock-management disaster? And despite their 3-1-1 record, are the Giants actually as good as their record suggests?

Later, Larry joins Will for an in-depth Yankees season recap. They discuss the playoff sweep by Tampa Bay, Aaron Judge's injury, Brian Cashman and Aaron Boone's futures, the team's young talent, and what needs to change heading into 2027.

Plus, the Knicks, sports controversies, and our Mt. Rushmore of the Biggest Scapegoats in New York Sports History.

The Giants are 3–1, sitting atop the NFC East and suddenly giving Will and Erik dangerous levels of hope.

But how real is this start? We break down another Giants win, the Jameis Winston roller coaster, Arvell Reese’s breakout performance, Kayvon Thibodeaux’s disappearing act and whether this team could actually be headed toward meaningful football later this season.

Then LeeJay joins us, and the mood changes quickly.

After an ugly Jets loss to Chicago, LeeJay unloads on the offense, Frank Reich’s play-calling, Geno Smith, the penalties, the players and the idea that Jets fans should be searching for “silver linings.” According to LeeJay, the Jets might have only two games left to save their season.

Plus: why NFL defenders seem to be punching at the football more than ever, what’s happening with the Chargers, the Knicks/KAT contract situation and whether NIL money is starting to influence who actually plays in college football.

It’s another week of completely normal New York sports!

The Giants are 2-1, but life without Jaxson Dart is already raising some big questions.

Will and Erik break down the Giants’ ugly win, Jameis Winston’s struggles, the trade for J.J. McCarthy and why adding another young quarterback isn’t necessarily a threat to Dart. Plus: Najee Harris’ emergence, a suddenly reliable Giants special teams unit and the major concern facing the defense after losing Brian Burns.

Then it’s onto the Jets, who showed fight again but still couldn’t finish the job. Is this actually a better football team despite the losses? And with Aaron Glenn now calling the defense, how much responsibility falls on him for a unit that continues to struggle?

Around the NFL, the guys discuss the wave of injuries across the league, some surprising 0-3 starts and a Cowboys defense that might not be quite as improved as advertised.

Finally, the frustration boils over with the Mets. Erik weighs in on the decision to keep Andy Green, the latest front-office changes and David Stearns’ roster-building philosophy. And after Pete Alonso’s huge season away from Queens, there’s no avoiding the question: how badly did the Mets get that decision wrong?
