The Quarterback Effect: Did McCarthy Really Win Without Dak?

Description

BT & Sal dive into the New York Giants' head coaching search, sparked by a caller who demands a total "clean house." The hosts debate whether interim coach Mike Kafka should get a serious shot, or if the Giants need to prioritize an experienced leader.

Tierney makes a case for proven coaches like Mike McCarthy (who won games without Dak Prescott) and Sean McDermott, while dismissing younger coordinators like Chris Shula. Sal argues that former Dolphins coach Brian Flores is the best defensive option if they go that route, despite the lawsuit. They fiercely question the logic of passing on an experienced, successful coach like Zac Taylor (Super Bowl run) for an "unknown" coordinator.

Finally, the discussion shifts to the team's appealing assets—a young quarterback, Malik Neighbors, and a potential top draft pick—leading to the question: Do the Giants trade their high pick for more capital, or take a top talent?
