Summary

Hour 4 is the full reaction to a historic Giants day. The guys break down what John Harbaugh’s press conference and interview revealed about who he is, why he wanted this job, and why the “love football” message landed so hard. They focus on the tone, the family element, and how naturally Harbaugh fits with the Giants identity, plus the way he spoke directly to the players in the room. They also debate expectations. Is the goal immediately playoffs, or is the real win simply eliminating the “miserable football” feeling and becoming a consistent, prepared, physical team every week? The conversation turns to what the Giants have lacked in recent years, situational mastery, discipline, and the details that decide close games, and why Harbaugh’s track record suggests those issues finally get fixed. There are also quick temperature checks on a few storylines, including why Jaxson Dart was not in the building for the introduction and whether that matters at all, and how Joe Schoen’s visibility shifts now that the franchise becomes “the Harbaugh show.” Fan calls pour in with the excitement level through the roof, and the show closes with more reflections on what winning culture actually looks like and what Giants fans should realistically demand next season.

If you kind of just doing it because you're good at it, at some point it's going to get so tedious that it becomes hard.

0:30.3

But if you love it and you love the pain, you love the grind, you love the, is he talked about watching the tape? If you love that, then you don't get,

0:39.3

you're constantly trying to improve. And I think if he espouses that and just keeps preaching

0:44.2

that to this team, that some of those guys that were kind of on the margins in our minds,

0:48.5

maybe can start reaching their full potential. I think the other thing that he said, and I loved
