Summary

Evan unveils his 25-deep Jets QB Big Board, ranking every realistic option from free agency to “likely trade or release” candidates, and it instantly turns into a full-blown debate. Aaron Rodgers is dead last, the middle tier gets rapid-fired, and then the top 10 drops with a jaw-dropping Anthony Richardson at #1 and Malik Willis at #2, sparking the obvious question: are the Jets hunting “stability” or swinging for the fences on upside? Calls pour in challenging the logic, the risk, and whether the Jets are even capable of fixing a reclamation project. Evan explains why he’d rather take a volatile shot that could hit big (or crater into a top pick) than sign a “bridge to nowhere.” Then Hour 3 takes a hard left into Cinco De Luncho: Food Edition as the crew reacts to the final Long Island Hooters closing, drafts the chain restaurants we miss most, argues Friendly’s vs extinction, remembers Pizza Hut buffet glory, and gets sidetracked by a Wendy’s poll idea that turns into a mini crisis when Tiki nearly reveals his password on-air. Plus: quick teases on what’s coming next with Jalen Brunson and Giancarlo Stanton.
