NY radio talking heads

Twtunes : 10/7/2021 6:37 pm
I very rarely listen to the radio anymore. However I turned it on for a few minutes and heard Max K and Keyshawn J talking about Daniel Jones with one other person, not sure who he was. They said yeah he is playing better hes considered an NFL starter now. Then Max said he now considers him to be middle of the pack. Then Keyshawn and some other guy are like whoa no hes still towards the bottom. Then they started naming QB's who he would be better then division by division. He wasn't better then a single QB in about (2) divisions then they got to the panthers and said hes not close to Sam Darnold??? I immediately shut off the radio, as I always seem to do. Am a crazy homer or would you say DJ is in the middle of the pac as he has played this year? He must be better then Sam Darnold right? I feel like i am watching a good QB, not in the top 10 yet but better then Sam!
That morning show is unlistenable

Why do you people listen  
bLiTz 2k : 10/7/2021 6:42 pm : link
to that crap to begin with.

If you are objectively just talking about this year, he has been a top Qb in 2021 on a bad team. Who cares what these chuckle dicks say on air.
I haven’t watched or listened to

sports radio/TV since SB XLVI and even then no pre or post game shows for over 20 years or so. I ONLY listen to NFL Radio on Sirius and even that very little the last year or so..

Of the NY sports radio dudes, I like Roberts & Hahn the best. The problem with them is that one is paired with a complete jackass who I can't stand (Carton) & the other is with a complete buffoon (Scott).
yes you're a homer

But it's no big deal. Sam has played better too. I put both these QBs in the same bucket. somewhere between #12 and #20.

Neither has proven to be consistent enough to sniff the top-8. Hopefully our guy keeps improving and solidifies himself near #10. That would be a considerable jump. I'm also pulling for Darnold. Seems like a nice kid.

A negative bias towards Daniel ever since he was drafted higher than the “experts” predicted, he can’t be a success, that would mean they were wrong and that buffoon Gettleman was right
Max is

Supposedly a NY homer so if he's only seeing middle of the pack, how are the non-homers supposed to see him?

I agree I think Sam seems like a nice kid and enjoy seeing him play better. I looked up ESPN QB rankings just for the heck of it and DJ is 13 and Sam is 17. I agree they are both middle of the pack right now however I see DJ having a higher ceiling and hopefully in the coming years getting up around the #10 spot.

He is not a new york homer
Espn messed up that show

If you study the #s...

Darnold is having a break-out season for Carolina.

He has 10 total TDs (5 passing 5 rushing), 6th in QBR, 10th in YPA, middle of the league in completion %, middle of the league in AY/A, and the Panthers are 13th in PPG.

But I have the same exact questions about Darnold that I have for Jones - can he sustain his good play?

I refuse to listen to those morons.

I can’t believe ESPN thinks intelligent people would listen to their garbage.
I'll just leave this right here...

And KJ says a lot of dumb shit. Jones came into this season a better QB than Darnold, and he's continued that this year.

I expected that Jones would prove himself to be a top 10 QB by the end of the season, and he's exceeded my expectations thus far.
One should understand that…

1. They are a business, in radio
2. The show has a producer, and their name isn’t in the show’s title
3. Advertising is their profit center
3. Controversy brings listeners which increases ad revenue

Now that we’re clear on that, the producer picks the topic, and assigns point of view. That’s their job. It isn’t some spontaneous opinion show, even though what is being expressed is opinion, in essence.

By creating this thread you have only become an unwilling participant in the “scheme”. We’ve all been there and unless it makes you feel better than it makes you feel worse, stop paying attention.

I like it with Zubin too when it first started. What happened to him?

WFAN is complete garbage now.

I loved when Max had the NYC based show, sometimes with Brian Kenny. It was smart, analytical, and engaging. And it was a Yankees and Giants show basically, and it was great. I still think Max is great when he’s allowed to be a NY guy, and not a company guy.

The best in NY right now is Dipietro and Rothenberg. It’s too early to listen to, but the podcast of the show is up by 8:00 every day so you can listen commercial free. Rothenberg captures what it’s like to be a real Giants fan perfectly.

That said, Jones was soooo bad last year that he should need some consistent good play to jump into middle of the pack. On this year alone, he’s probably in the 12-16 range I think. His QBR is good or whatever, but it’s not like they’re scoring 30+ per game with him. Hopefully that’s on the way.

They should just extend Dipietro and Rothenberg to 10am (Or make them 6am to 10am). They are light years better.
Sounds familiar

Any Nick Mullens references?
if Dan Joes was 3-1  
cjac : 10/8/2021 10:37 am : link
and Darnold was 1-3, they'd prob be saying on Charlotte radio that Darnold isnt close to Jones.

Its all bullshit

Died when Mike Francesca retired. I listen to guys on YouTube that do a nice job. Baddog Sports does a great job. https://youtube.com/c/MrBaddog7676
