A lot of football this hour.

Aaron Glenn getting set for us. Keep hearing these commercials for the Jetson Panthers. I know. I know. Bob was shoes and trying to make a... People get excited. Oh, my God. Here was Aaron Glenn yesterday. He knows being winless, not acceptable. We know exactly where we're at. And we're not accepting being 0 and 6 at all. You know, so we know from myself as a coach, from the players, to go out there and play, we all have to improve. And that's the part of what we're doing. Remember we played the clip, it was last hour of the hour before that, Glenn, talking about the Justin Fields thing. You got to get the ball down the field to Garrett Wilson and give him a chance.

0:38.8

Here was Fields, who knows, especially he held the ball a lot in London. He's well aware what's going on. I feel like I've been a little bit too conservative in a sense. Probably just be a little bit more aggressive. I've always just been big on ball security and not putting the ball in jeopardy. but you know it comes to a point where you just got to find that healthy balance between trying to maybe fit it in smaller windows and just letting it rid. So at least he's got the awareness. Oh, no, he's aware. He's definitely aware. Hopefully he has a good game on Sunday. Jackson Dart, 2-1 through 3 is a starter for the Giants. They're in Denver on Sunday, and he still looks back, and he's really bothered by that loss in New Orleans. Yeah, I mean, obviously, we should have won the three in a row. That's something that I look back on, and, you know, if we don't have, I mean, we could have won that game if we had four turnovers, but, you know, definitely just trying to learn from those experiences, learned from the good and from the bout of each of those games and just trying to prepare for each week.

And by the by Jerry, sports talk on WFN is presented by Paramount Plus. You can't count on much, but you can always count on Sundays with the NFL on CBS and Paramount Plus. Watch your local NFL game live every Sunday all season long. Visit Paramount Plus.com slash NFL to get started today. Unless you're a

1:44.5

Giants fan in Connecticut. That's true. So that's an interesting story about what's going on. So

1:49.4

CBS has the Pats in Tennessee at one o'clock. It is a Fox doubleheader Sunday, which means the Giants

1:56.3

are at 405. There are some affiliates in New England England, uh, which would be, you know,

2:03.0

Connecticut area that are heavy patriot influence. So they're going to carry the one o'clock

2:08.2

game, but they can't carry the 405 giants game. And that's simply chosen by the affiliates

2:15.3

themselves. They know, you know, They know who they're listening audiences or watching

2:19.0

audiences or the viewers are. So it's just one of those weird things where if you are a Connecticut

2:24.3

and you are a giant fan and your affiliate happens to be carrying the one o'clock Patriot game,

2:29.3

they cannot carry the 405 game because it's a Fox doubleheader weekend. Definitely going to get a call on that Monday. Guarantee you. People will be screaming about it. So they're going to get what? The commanders and the Packers? No, they won't get anybody. They won't get anybody. No, the Fox. The Fox game at the 4. Oh yeah, yeah, the Fox, but on CBS they won't. They'll get, like, bull-riding or whatever.

2:51.7

Yeah, no.

2:52.1

Where's the cutoff, like Hartford?

2:53.7

It depends on, you know, the affiliates make the decisions. They're the ones that are allowed to decide what they want to show in their area, depending on, you know, I guess, you know, they read the room. But they couldn't do that here in New York.

3:06.5

No, they would never do that.

3:07.5

Right.

3:07.7

So I think what Eddie's saying is where's the line where you're allowed to make that decision? I don't know. I mean, that's the affiliates and it's all dependent on population. And I'm sure they know better than we do. Now, if you are a New York giant fan and the affiliate that you watch, whatever affiliate that is, happens to be in Patriot Country, they're going to show the Patriot game, not the giant game. That's just the way it is. And I would say that that's why you'd want the ticket if you could afford it, you know, that kind of thing. You've got the Steelers and Bengals tonight kicking off week seven. I thought this was interesting.

3:40.9

It's not about the game, but since Pittsburgh related. Ben Rothlisberger on his podcast, Pittsburgh has grass at Aquas Shore Field, as we know, stadium, whatever the hell it's called. Yeah, and they're replacing it. Right. Here was Rodlessberger on his own podcast, essentially just killing the surface. Now, I know Aaron Rogers also said it wasn't all that playable a couple of weeks ago, too, or maybe it was just last year.

4:00.7

I don't know whether they got the Panthers and the Pittsburgh. Yeah, that turf dare is awful. And you had the kicker slip. Right. And here's Rathlisberger. You can't have a professional football team, not just the Steelers, but the opponents, play on a surface like that. Yeah. Because you're paying them a lot of money, and if people get hurt, it's not a good thing. Now, why would they replace that if the season just started? Because the middle of the field was totally tore up, and, you know, JJ Watt was talking about this. And he said, you know, look at the middle of this field. It's terrible.
