Show Notes
The Giants are reportedly making the switch to J.J. McCarthy, and Tiki Barber thinks John Harbaugh might be making a major mistake. With the Giants sitting at 3-2-1 and firmly in the playoff race, is throwing McCarthy into the fire against the Texans' dangerous pass rush really the smartest move? Tiki explains why Houston's defense could expose the young quarterback's inexperience and why Jameis Winston might still give the Giants their best chance to win.
Evan Roberts and Tiki debate the timing of the quarterback change, McCarthy's thrilling comeback against the Saints, and whether the Giants should have waited until after the bye week. With a division title suddenly within reach, the Giants are taking a gamble that could have major consequences for their season.

Tiki Barber weighs in on Frank Reich's struggles and why another sloppy performance could effectively end the Jets' season.
The Knicks' championship ring celebration has turned into a controversy for all the wrong reasons!
