Hey, the Giant Fans. Welcome to the Giant Insider podcast. My name is Jerry Foley. I am the senior editor of the Giant Insider newspaper. With me as always is the beat writer, the heart of Giant's Nation. Nobody beats the biz. Chris Bizzignano. Chris, before we get started, want to thank our sponsor, Fitzpatrick's Chris Tavern, located at 9600 Pacific Avenue and Diamond Beach. They have a huge selection of spirits, including 21 beers on tap, and many of which are from local microbreweries in South Jersey. They have 18 widescreen TVs in the NFL's some new tickets. You can watch your favorite NFL team while scarping down some of the delicious options on their menu, including oysters straight off the boat and onto your plate. And my personal favorite, the Mardi Gras shrimp. And everybody's asked me about that. yes, it is my personal favorite, the Mardi Gras shrimp, as well as a dinner option like the roast beef Supreme. So if you find yourself vacationing on the South Jersey Shore, head over to Fitzpatrick's Crest Tavern and tell the owner San Fitzpatrick that the giant insider sent me. That's Fitzpatrick's Crest Tavern at 9600 Pacific Avenue in Diamond Beach, just between Wildwood Crest and Cape May, the best Chuck in town. All right, all right, all right, Chris. Here we go,

Because if Jets go out there and beat them Sunday, you season's basically over before Thanksgiving. Excuse me, before Halloween. Oh, way before Thanksgiving. Before, yeah, way before Halloween. So, yeah, you got to start, you know, it's going to be Tyrod again. Daniel's out. You're not going to have Andrew Thomas to left tackle again. Both guys. I was told last Sunday, yeah, they'll be back next week.

And both guys are not back.

I was more surprised at Thomas, to be honest with you.

Yeah.

Yeah. You know, Andrew, you know, look like he was going to be back on track.
