Summary

Cousin Sal, Dave, and Martin react to the New York Giants losing to the WFT and Eddie Spaghetti calls it one of the worst days of his life. There was lots of blame to go around on the Giants from coaches to the players. Martin wonders if Tyler Heinicke is better than Daniel Jones? The guys then look forward to Sunday and discuss the matchup of two 1-0 teams, Raiders @ Steelers (-6.5) as Dave gives his win/place/show of moments between the two rivals. Sal and Martin think the Immaculate Reception was a trap to try and anger Dave. Next, the guys make their pick for the highest-scoring team of the week and a look at early MVP odds as Martin has an MVP prediction that ties to the winner of the NFC West. The guys give their thoughts on a first-ever in-season series of Hard Knocks with the Indianapolis Colts as well as a strange blonde hair bet between Zach Ertz and Jason Kelce. Plus, they each pick their upset pick of the weekend as Sal explains to Dave what an upset is. With two weeks left in the baseball season, Vladimir Guerrero Jr. (+950) is in the mix to win the triple crown but will it be enough to overtake Shohei Ohtani (-4500) for AL MVP. Finally, comedian Josh Gardner joins the show to remember the great Norm MacDonald and discuss their friendship Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

Welcome to Extra Points.

Now here's your host, Cousin Sal, and his pal, Dave Damasek.

0:13.0

All right, welcome to Extra Points Friday edition. Cousin Sal, coming to you.

0:20.0

Spaghetti and meatballs behind the glass.

0:22.2

Oh, gloomy spaghetti after the Giants lost last night.

0:25.4

We're going to get into that.

0:27.0

Martin Weiss is here.

0:28.6

We got Babyface Joel Solomon producing this whole mess.

0:31.4

And my dear, dear pal, Dave Damashak, check, let's just launch right in.

0:37.3

I feel like on minus three, you sat down with

0:40.3

spaghetti and spaghetti was wearing a Dexter Lawrence jersey. What is that? 97? A Dexter Lawrence jersey.

0:47.9

And that is the gentleman who jumped off sides giving Washington football team another chance

0:53.2

at a game winningwinning field goal.

0:54.8

And they nailed it.

0:55.5

Am I right or am I wrong?

0:57.1

I think you've covered all details accurately.

1:01.3

You did skip out on the bucket hat that Eddie Spaghetti wore needlessly on minus three with a chiny strap.

1:08.6

But yes, not unlike a heavy set Eddie Spaghetti, Dexter Lawrence launched himself over the line of scrimmage and cost the giant. But to hang it on just one giant would be unfair to several other giants. Am I correct in saying? Yes, I think if you hang it on one, it should be, was it Slate and it dropped the touchdown pass? I mean, right off its hand. Spaghetti, jump in here. I know you're miserable. I wish you would announce it right here, but you could say it again. You said yesterday might have been the worst day of your life. Washington wins 3029 in week two. Is that so? Yeah, that was definitely one of the worst games ever.

1:42.3

I mean, multiple points. The Giants should have won that game, whether, like you said, the Slayton drop, the Phantom Holding call on the long DJ, rushing touchdown, Dexter Lawrence, you know, popping off sides. Apparently I've been reading too that somebody said they thought the center slightly moved his hand, which is what caused Dex to jump off size.

1:42.9

But I don't know.

2:55.8

It was just so miserable. Taylor Heineke coming in here and scoring 30 points in this Giants defense that was supposed to be good. You know, there should be more criticism on the damn defense over what Daniel and Jones did, which, by the way, was the best performance of his career statistically. So yeah, it's just, I mean, yeah, there's an easier game next week versus the Falcons, but this would have been good to get a division win. I mean, first of all, the game was good. Everyone thought it was going to be a dog. And by the way, next Thursday, not great either on paper. It's, who is it? It's Carolina at Houston or Houston and Carolina. One of those. I don't know where it is, but yeah, I know. That's a rough one. But Martin, I don't know. I looked up. First of all, 3029, great ending. Not really sloppy. The first turnover was when Heineke threw the fourth quarter pick that the Giants only turned into a field goal. but you looked up and both quarterbacks were like 20 for 26, right? It was a decent game. I actually tweeted about this. I said one of these quarterbacks is on his fourth team. One of these quarterbacks was the

six pick in the draft. And to add to Eddie Spaghetti's terrible day, he decided he wanted to go back
