Summary
Craig Carton and Chris McMonigle open the show reacting to the Giants officially landing John Harbaugh as head coach, calling it the biggest and best move the franchise has made in over a decade. Craig gives credit where it’s due — the Giants got their dream coach and instantly stabilized the organization — but quickly pumps the brakes, arguing Big Blue still has the worst quarterback and wide receiver group in the NFC East. Big Mac fires back with optimism, playoff dreams, and belief in Jaxson Dart, while Craig plays the role of honest reality check.

So let's compartmentalize the conversation. Okay. Let's start all the really good stuff. The New York Giants were the best option. The New York Giants made it very clear, very early. As soon as John Harbaugh got fired by the Baltimore Ravens, they wanted to be in the John Harbaugh business. They broke out every stop.
