Hour 1 - Seattle Show Why A Backup QB Is Important, Yanks & Mets Win

Boomer & Gio

About this episode

Boomer & Gio is made possible by:


The NFL season kicked off with the Seahawks beating the Patriots in a late-blooming fourth quarter, where Sam Darnold’s early injury proved the vital need for competent backup Drew Lock. Jerry's first update breaks down Drake Maye’s game-ending end-zone interception, alongside post-game takes from Mike Macdonald, Mike Vrabel, and Maye himself. Plus, George Lombard Jr. crushes a grand slam in a Yankees win over the Rockies, Rutgers coach Steve Pikiell reveals a cancer diagnosis, and we remember the late Barry Melrose. Finally, we look at why the Rams are football's Dodgers and if the 49ers' championship window is officially closing.

It's the Boomerin Gio podcast from WFAN and we're Cody alive for the Veld4, tough studio Boomer, a size Igreq G and Audi. It's a Boomerin Gio on the fan, Cidal Cast across the country on CBS Sports Network and where we already free Odyssey app. Good Thursday morning Yankees smack around Iraqis again last night like they're supposed to do and hopefully that continues for them during this stretch and Aaron Judge getting a hit that was good to see as well as they continue to roll towards the postseason and you had an NFL game last night that was interesting got off to a really boring start and of course the quarterback injury that we know so well the first drive of the season like we saw with Aaron Rogers we don't know if this is season ending probably won't be for Sam Darnold but he leaves on the fifth play of the game with a hip injury and here comes Drew Lock who really couldn't

get anything going early on but then my goodness Drake May just throwing the ball all over the place making bad decisions obviously you got to give credit to the Seattle Seahawks defense but man one bad throw after another they should have never ever lost that football game but you know what they call that last night Boomer hard of a champion up there in Seattle hard of a champion good morning Boomer how are you yeah good morning Jam Donor right in by the way it just goes to show you you better have a backup quarterback just in case you know the one thing about Drew Lock you know he has started and they were talking about it last night when he was in Denver he was a part of the Russell Wilson swap back a few years ago and you just never know when you're gonna need a legitimate experienced backup quarterback and he made a couple plays especially in Fortown to Jackson Smith and Jigba that ended up leading to a touchdown in the second half that was perfect it was a perfectly designed play by Brian

Florey there a new offensive coordinator and you know they win the game and you know after the game a so in Drake May is like you know I can't make decisions like this I can't you know throw the ball away the way that I did and give it away you know when we throw three interceptions on the last three possessions you know you're gonna lose games and quite frankly Romeo and Dobbs you know drops a wide open pass that would have been a huge play for the Patriots and right after that comes the first interception by Drake May but Drake may get some into position at least attempt to tie the game but you know he throws a ball off his back foot back foot night it's the moment he throws it you can look at him like I can't believe I just did that and sometimes you do things in games where you're not thinking clearly and you know that young man wanted a very very valuable lesson because this is the game last night as you just said the Patriots should have won this game they had every opportunity you're playing against the backup quarterback your defense is playing relatively well they're getting stopped she'll run in the ball effectively but again you

know none of these guys have played in preseason you know and the defense is always going to be ahead of the offense now we'll have some games this weekend where offenses will put up a lot of points mainly because I think other offenses will probably turn the ball over during the game much like doing on dead last night but you know you know you AJ Brown goes out Sam Darnold goes out I mean and this is what happens the first you know four or five weeks of the season because this is really where preseason starts now for a lot of these players who haven't played yeah I mean it really is amazing you got everything in this first game that kind of drives you nuts about early season NFL these days which is you know injuries turnovers sloppy play not a lot of scoring doesn't feel like things get going until about week three or four because nobody plays in preseason as you mentioned so yeah the game was interesting in the second half I do have to admit but the first half was was just a horrendously boring football game but it was interesting because all the turnovers and then the multiple opportunities that the Patriots had and then obviously Drake may crashing out

and throwing these horrendous like that Romeo dobs the one that not the one that he dropped because he started running before he caught the football but the first interceptor first interception where you know he throws it up there into what felt like triple coverage and you know gave Romeo dobs an opportunity but that was I mean that was a miserable throw in decision as well well I think also on the sideline they're probably telling Drake may you know give him a chance let him go up and get it this is what he's supposed to do he's supposed to be a receiver that goes up and gets balls like that I mean you know that was a great play by the safety of the Seattle Seahawks two by the way who were missing their starting safeties last night and look Seattle as I was telling you last night Seattle's are really tough place to play I can't I can't even tell you how loud it is there it's hard for me to describe it as it a announcer there at times you couldn't even hear yourself talk as the game was being played that's how loud it is there so as the visiting team there's a lot of stuff that's going on I actually

thought the Patriots had a really good game plan when he came to running the ball and protecting Drake man that their past protection was tremendous I mean I mean there was really nothing that the offense wasn't doing to be able to win the football game other than turning the ball over I mean it's just like it's a classic thing I mean it's it's almost too easy to say but you lose the turnover battle that badly on the road you're going to lose a game even if it is a backup quarterback on the other side and I do think that think about to I mean yes it's a difficult place to play and the Patriots on the road and all of that but from the other side even though they're at home I mean this is the first game for the new offense of coordinator flurry his quarterback that just want a super bowl goes out after five plays he's got drew lock we we know who he is and then obviously on the fly designs a different type of game plan for drew locked you know find a tight end out there you know get the ball in jiggba in space just little things to make him comfortable enough to win a football game that to me

I mean that that's the most impressive thing that happened last night was that that four down play where it's fourth and one and they throw the sort of past in jiggba and he takes off with it for a touchdown I mean that was a great design play man I you know because it looked like the play was part of it was to be designed to throw it out into the flat to the back of the backfield but I think that that was all just window dressing to get the ball inside as the Patriots for Blitzon to Smith and jiggba so drew locked you know that takes a lot to do that yeah it's fourth down man huh and you know you're under the gun and here you are you played a lot in preseason as Mike and Christopher talking about he did play a lot in preseason so that probably helped him but again it's just another example of you know if something happens that you know Smith in his first game against Tennessee and it's Kate Kodnik in there yeah I mean and maybe and you know who knows maybe Clay Kate will be able to handle it we wouldn't we won't know that until something like that happens hopefully it doesn't happen but it just goes to show you like how valuable that

insurance policy is they don't win that game if drew lock is not out there playing and drew lock didn't turn the ball up yeah I mean this is we've been saying it for weeks now it feels like roster malpractice that they have a fourth round rookie quarterback as they're back up in a season where you feel like you have to have an X amount of wins and look like a real football team or there's going to be another regime change here with the Jets I I still don't understand it if not so much about Kate Kate Kodnik as a as a man as a quarterback as a prospect it's just the situation I mean it's how many guys have we seen that just get thrown into this I mean he's like walking right into the NFL a pretty good cluster I mean yes I mean we can go on and on and on from Louis Jack Wilson and look look look I mean Trevor Simeon this is a million guys and then you go to who's the kid from Canada kid for all uh stravler yeah stravler I mean it's just it's not so I'm not necessarily knocking Kate it's more about the Jets having him in potentially this position

where he's just going to be another guy is going to get chewed up and spit out because the Jets mismanaged something so I hope it doesn't happen you know maybe something changes over the next couple of weeks where another veteran quarterback comes in but yeah I mean Drew lock Drew lock is not he's Drew lock but he's got a lot of experience he's played a lot of games and he's been on that team he's been he's a he's a part of the Super Bowl winning Seattle Seawawks he's a part of the team he's probably a top 10 back up in the league I would think yes and you know can they go on and win the next three or four games with them they got Arizona next week I mean you know they got 10 days off now you know so I would think that you know this is a good chance for Drew lock to settle in at least for maybe for the next five or six weeks depending on how bad uh you know Sam donnell this I was wondering because you know I was in a game where Bo Jackson blew out his hip yeah and it was a hip drop tackle by Kevin Walker or linebacker but you know those hip top

drop tackles back then were legal um this really didn't look like that no but it's it looked like he felt like he felt weird like what like he runs out of the pocket to his left and I don't know it becomes down on his head down on his knee and it's sort of like you know on that right side yes does that does that kind of like jam his hip or did he come down on the hip is it a hip pointer yeah I don't know now Mike McDonald their head coach basically said that it was not a broken hip because they did do a CT scan on him last night you know as the game was being played so hopefully Sam's maybe only out for a few weeks I'm not you know who knows I've never had anything like this so I'm not really sure it doesn't look like much but man I'll tell you well when you when he goes wimpin off like that you I'm like uh here we go yeah first game that you know the super well winning quarterback has hurt five plays into the season yeah right I mean on a on a win on a Wednesday night when the

NFL I mean you think about this is how you you can never you know predict anything it's like it's it's a it's a fool's errand to try to predict anything like think about you know the year after or just the day after Sam left the jets and Joe Douglas talked about all right we had to get rid of Sam and blah blah blah and you fast forward to now it's a Wednesday night yeah they're opening the NFL season and Sam Darnold is a super bowl champion for the Seattle Seahawks and then him getting hurt is devastating uh to that team uh and the NFL and NBC because the game I mean people probably hung around but I mean that was a tough one man that was not really so early on you know what at least it was competitive and unfortunately for Drew lock three straight series into fourth quarter he throws interceptions up to that point he played a relatively drink drink man uh up to that point he played a relatively clean game you know he made some nice runs he did make some throws where the ball was dropped especially the Romeo dobs one where he just lays it right in there

I mean you know come on I mean Romeo you're there you're making 20 million dollars a year they brought you in especially now with AJ uh with what's his name AJ Brown out yeah you got to make plays you can't be dropping balls like that he knows that and I'm sure he is miserable and I'm sure that flight home last night was miserable for that team because they lost an opportunity to start to season one and out they really they really did they had every opportunity they were in control of the game and then all of a sudden you know right at the end here comes Drew lock and here comes the Seahawks and here come the interceptions yeah and that is a it's a great win for Seattle uh when you have all that fanfare and then the banner goes up you know it's funny just watching it and and and watching the who is camp chancellor who was introduced in the Seahawks and they'd Richard Sherman up there and then you know they they unveiled a banner Legion of doom yeah and they and they are a boom yeah so they unveiled a banner and I see Mike McDowell look up at it and then he looks to the field and I was like that's got to be the last moment of celebration before it's like oh

crap we have to play football game we got a whole other season right now you know it's like okay you celebrated the entire off season obviously you get back to camp everybody's patting on the back but it's like all right here we go there's an opponent this game counts we got the banner up there I mean it's going to be like that for the nicks believe it or not it will be I mean and for all the players who participated in the championship season last year you know that's a moment that's your moment you've earned it you've deserved it I mean you live for that and just like the nicks will be living for when they open up with LeBron and the and the sixers yeah now that's going to be interesting because I really thought like Seattle played hard at the their defense played hard they were missing a couple key players for them it didn't seem to distract them and it didn't seem like they totally lost the beat when the backup quarterback went in there of course they didn't score 30 points but you know what he didn't turn the ball very played well he plates out and they want a game on the night where they unfurled their championship banner unfurling all right got a love of a good unfurling especially when your team wins yeah I mean I don't think it's a LeBron going on for

50 the night the nicks unfurled their championship batter and you don't wonder do you think that the championship batter is going to have the the NBA couple little thing in the corner I hope not because I just want it to be about the the L.O.B. I actually think that would be it I didn't I didn't want them to unfurl a NBA cup banner yeah certainly don't want that no but you are the first team since the NBA cup yeah actually win the cup and the championship you don't need to put that on the banner people know cup down in a corner and people know you don't need to you don't need to tell people about it they know already you know that champion thing there is just for intimidation factors you know for the the opponents that come in yeah I'm sure LeBron is going to be intimidating we got to go off for 50 but you know he's not he's a hundred years old now man not going off for 50 for God's sake by the way jail and Brunson is going to host the season opener of Saturday night how you think that's going to go that poorly I'm surprised it's not him and Josh Hart doing it together yeah Josh Hart not a big enough national I bet you he would be funnier I but I bet you he

makes an appearance okay I bet you he walks behind Joan Brunson and pinches them on he asks he'll do well check yeah oil check that's actually a good idea because a lot of people did see that and probably they've been doing that they've been doing that since they got here yeah yeah stuff like that yeah so if you're a Nick van you know that these two guys are always you know messing around with each other yeah yeah no absolutely and by the way you know Mike Tomlin is tremendous on NBC absolutely tremendous he was so good in the pregame you know we were watching the game together and and the pregame it had a couple of really good things to say but I don't know if you saw what he said about two after the game I didn't they were talking about like you know week one and and Maria Taylor asked when he goes you know Aaron Rogers so well and you know it's the Mike McCarthy era you know how do you think Aaron's going to do this season in his last season against the Falcons like Tomlin just like seamlessly just looks over with those eyes like I don't think it's much about Aaron I think it's about that quarterback on the other side the last

year he was in Pittsburgh didn't go well for him I was a part of that football game they lost he got benched I don't think it's gonna go well oh my god good for him I didn't see that too low torched too on actual TV he got they lost he got benched and that was at I was I was a part of that game I was like whoa baby I was looking at looking at some of these games this coming weekend like that's one of those games where you're like okay there's no way Miami's going I mean Atlanta's going into Pittsburgh and beating the Steelers yeah I mean what what a drop for to I mean he had that really really great season then he became a sympathetic figure because he was getting concussion after concussion and now he's just basically dog food for everybody everybody is just hammering the guy he stinks he should never be out there anymore you know you get him out yeah wait's the second panics comes back they're gonna cut him I mean my goodness what a fall

for that man you know what about just try to look at what about the commanders at the Eagles yeah I think well that's the that's the Brady Burkhard game I think right how about Arizona at the charge man I mean Arizona's just a air a tough one yeah no I know you're in these knockout leagues oh yeah yeah yeah you want you want to join with me in one of these want to fire a bullet with me yeah why not all right good we'll have the we'll have the boomerin geo entry into the knockout pool I do every year feel like you probably your chargers guy I see the thing about it is like you know it's week one there's always always feel like when when you do these knockout pools yeah in week one there's always some team yeah that you would never expect a win that somehow comes away with the win so in this big knockout pool and it's amazing how it works because still in the end there's only like four or five people after thousands and thousands of entries you could pick the same team every week you don't have to use a team once and still it gets whittled down from like a thousand to four

every year it's just incredible how long how long have you lasted in one of these now one one I was part of one where the the prize was split amongst us and it was it was a significant yeah it was great but I mean that was you know as a while ago now I don't think I've made it past week four last two years you know don't forget we got another game tonight happening in Australia tomorrow morning there's a hilarious headline you have to see at the post put out there yeah it goes Sean McVeigh and Matt Stafford look annoyed arriving in Australia and there was just them walking off a plane just like all of us walking off a plane we all look annoyed woman you don't have a fight that flight was what 17 hours or something what do you want about 60 it's 16 and a half yeah I mean did you want to be like doing the cha cha getting off the plane for 17 hours which is amazing so yeah tonight the game is 8 30 on Netflix and it will be 10 what is it 11 30 or 10 30 tomorrow morning it's 14 hours so yeah 10 30 10 30 tomorrow morning so they are there's

field goal may the bad pick and Seattle takes the season opener here was Mike McDonald talking about the way his team battled through the sand darnald injury which happened early drew a lot came on it was 16 of 22 for 187 in a score we lost sand you know first time play collar I thought Florida did a great job of adjusting on the flyer off to staff drew locked as there's a gigantic shout out for playing clean football and and you know improve our operation yeah that's it clean football you know looks like a sam's right knee hits the ground and jams his hip is what it looks like to me yeah I mean it's just an awkward fall I mean this is what happens in a violent game but you can't ask for more than what drew a lot gave you last night oh yeah just don't go out there and turn the ball over fumble it you know make misreads kind of like the way Drake made it in the fourth quarter but give him credit and give them credit for having him on the roster and all indications are that darnald is okay as of now he will have an MRI though they say

later today I also at a j brown leave the game with an ankle injury I'm knowing inside of things Mike Vrayball not good enough you know we got it we got to have a chance we got we got to be great in that situation now we've got the the field goal you know all friends did a great job of battling back and forked down conversion and and putting ourselves in a position and again we want to be aggressive and just not reckless and you could make the case that last throw was reckless here was May who had full accountability yeah lost patience and costed us I think it just you know decisions that cost us the game you know my part in lion and you know I've asked myself to to be better and realize it's you know it's a long season but the same time you can't have those you know remember the Patriots last year a lost or a home opener to the Vegas Raiders and you know Smith so I mean like they're used to losing these these opening games I guess under Mike Vrayball but I think he was trying to throw the ball away I thought so too and just to get enough out of and it just kind of floated back into in the play and I was a great play by that defensive back for the year's jolbs

y'all yeah so you got that game out of the way now it's the Niners and Rams in Australia Kyle Shanahan with the media he was asked his thoughts that Aaron Donald is not playing for LA didn't make the trip very excited I told you guys last time I talked to you guys he was he was definitely playing so I never been more excited to be wrong about something so we're good fair enough what was your initial reaction though when you heard the news it's just smiled and said that's good so we're gonna have to see him eventually we play them twice so but it's I was hoping he won it I was preparing for the worst and glad that we don't have to see him this week and they do not and that game will be later tonight after eight o'clock ten or eleven o'clock in the morning Australia time meantime Sunday at one you've got the jets and the Titans Sunday night the Giants home for the Cowboys new Giants had coach John Harbaugh wasn't that these are a little long but you'll see why he was asked about the availability of Malik neighbors Malik neighbors play this week we'll find out on Sunday night did he practice for me today he did has he taken some contact he did today we're in

patch what if he's ready to go man we'll see though I mean it's just it's still four days five days four days until we play so if he's ready to go and he feels like he's ready to go and he's you no play all right so you get where we're going here you have enough at this point I just say this right now we've stopped all these questions because I'm not gonna tell you who's playing in the game I'm not gonna tell you who's starting I'm not gonna tell you what package we have in I'm not gonna tell you what plays we're running I'm not gonna tell you any of that okay so we can make it great and have a great press conference or we can make it uncomfortable but I'm not gonna tell you because when you know the Cowboys know yeah that's very sad it's actually very simple when you think about it but then what kind of press conference can we have you can we all that that's the verbal equivalent of him just dropping his penis on the podium that's what that is he is he is setting the boundaries and he's going this is the way it's gonna go and if you guys want to have a good relationship with me then you do it my way what a visual yeah just by the way guys this is

the deal boom were you playing the NFL a long time many coach ever drop his penis on the podium no I don't think so guys have dropped out the things in the podium very funny uh baseball wise at the stadium Yankees took it to the Rockies again a rookie with the biggest swing of the night that's swing on hit the right field and hit well carry carry get it up baby get it up got a grand slam for the kid George Lombard Jr goes up oh a grand slam and it was the first of the season for the Yankees day how many RBI's does he have now I stopped it I'm sure he did it's not he probably did it just enough six one was the final because he does that in his home run calls usually it's home run number 25 RBI's 45 46 47 and 48 oh that's usually I can play the whole thing if you know I know it's okay oh if I didn't think so so the grand slam obviously the bigot bat in the game and so that's why Lombard Jr is the thriving player of the

game brought to you by thrive well New York's premier infusion and injection center saving lives drip by drip visit thrive well infusion dot com so now we got we got Volpy coming up now yes jazz is out Volpy looks like backup he's got like a bunch of home runs his last week and a half a game so maybe he'll come up and hit some grand slam it's kind of interesting uh geo and I will listen in the cuck-back yesterday and uh now all of a sudden they hate Caboero I mean well it was like three months ago Caboero was the hero like he was the guy that you know you could plug in anywhere you could do a lot of different things for your steal of base you know lay down a bun everybody was just like lauding the fact he's like that heck up quarterback you love him he comes in and does well he plays every day yeah it's warts it's the peaks and valleys of the fan man you know you love a guy then you hate a guy just seems ridiculous for us with the season that we've seen from the mats to complain about guys who have helped out at any point in the season but when you're cuck mack you need you need a plus performance from everybody across

the board everybody's got been all star yep that's believable now the Yankees are still four games behind the raise because the raise beat the braids again seven two was the final last night uh you've got the series finale this evening max freed on the mound for the yanks the medsted hall off the marlins in a wild game 15 14 AJ you and Christopher merrill and Luis Terence a combined nine for 13 with nine RBI's and seven runs scored the meds are off today they will play the Yankees over the weekend Dodgers beat the reds 14 to one notable here LA Puchoio Tani on the I.L. with the injured right arm again yeah yeah right he's not right and I'm sure he'll be ready for the playoffs to D.H. but he is not right right now Rutgers basketball coach Steve Pichel did announce on social media yesterday that he was diagnosed with cancer and Brandon Knight will write think gonna run the day to day up a situation until he's back full man. Steve A is gonna be okay is like yeah are they expecting a full recovery yes yes I believe he's taking care of a lot

already all right but they're still a grind in front of him so Brandon Knight will step in and run a lot of the day to day activities former NHL player coach and ESPN analyst Barry Miller has it he was just 70 years old at the US open Alexander Jarov okay Jarov sure beat here we go boutique van this this angel yeah I stayed there once actually it was a beautiful place boutique van design yeah great great Ben Bryant no idea yeah during this match Josh Hart was in the booth in ESPN and you know they were talking about you know the next basketball season starts in about a month and a half or so you guys are now gonna have a big X on your back and Hart says actually we don't see it that way at all I don't think we have a big target because I don't think anyone's picking us to to win again so so we're using it as fuel man we're still to hunters we're not satisfied with that's their mentality go out one another one because no one thinks they're

going to win again at meantime American Coco goff reached the semi finals three set win over Mira Andriota it's the boomerangio podcast from W F A N. Hi boomerangio on the fan and CBS sports network Yankees win and George Lombard Jr. with the Grand Slam NFL opens last night with the Patriots losing to the Seattle Seahawks and Drew Lack who comes in for Sam Darnell good to hear though that the initial reports for Sam is it's not going to be something that's going to last very long I am very excited for this game tonight not because it's in Australia but just because you know the Rams are that team that everybody's talking about it's almost like the Dodgers in baseball where it's like oh this is the team to be yeah the Rams are going to be the team and both teams happen to be in Los Angeles and and the 49ers who are in a you know they're in a weird place it feels like their window is really close to closing because they still have a great head

coach they've got a quarterback you can trust all these things but they ran into some of their own cap issues everybody always gets hurt out there and they've got teams in their division namely the the Rams who just have a better roster so well they also have the deal with Seattle well yeah that's well yes that's two yes of course with the Super Bowl champion so they they are firmly you know third in in that division and and this was a team that have felt like they needed to capitalize when they were their dominant selves and win a Super Bowl and they were right there and they were close but well good news for them is that they looks like George Kittles going to be back playing for them all right and also Nick Bolsa so both of those guys are on the field you got two all pros you know back on the field brought party Christian McCaffrey I mean you know they're they're the Trent Brown they're they're gonna have or Trent Williams what should say they're gonna have they're still gonna have a very good team and Brock party's one hell of a quarterback man you know it's amazing you know listening to people talk about quarterbacks in a league and it's

amazing to me that somehow some way they forget about Brock party like very rarely do I hear like he's like in the top six or seven quarterbacks yeah but every year he has numbers that can support that yeah and maybe that's because he was Mr. relevant maybe he's just physically not impressive I don't know what it is but it's amazing like so here's a seven-throw draft pick and like Dak Prescott was the fourth round draft picked just like Cade Club Nick was like you just never know where it's gonna come from and you know forcibly enough for him you know he ended up going to San Francisco and the story goes that Mike Shenan did tell Jed York at the time our best quarterback is our fourth string guy and that's when they had tradelances the number three overall pick on their team and they traded that they got remember tradelances started a game at Chicago and got hurt yeah and then it was like the next year see ya yeah it was the end of it he's been bouncing around really not a lot of opportunities I mean that's one of an old time bust picks that you

could possibly have give us a call in the red pocket mobile fan line by the way you're new ultimate sell carrier red pocket mobile and that number is 888 808 101 nine you know seeing Mike Evans out there in that nine or uniform doesn't look quite right after all those all those years there but yeah I mean that's a guy who's maybe has something left in the tank it's just it's amazing all of the things like if you're John Lynch and Kyle Shannon you probably sit around to talk about all the missed opportunities oh that you've had all the injuries and oh yes right and all the injuries and all the things that have happened and you know both are going down and then Brock party getting hurt in the championship game and all of the things they gotta get rid of that electrical substation away from their practice facility man I would I would do anything to change things up over I don't think it has it I don't know if it has anything to do with it I have no idea it's above the pay grade spot I don't know if they're ligaments are getting screwed up because I and parties won those guys they got injured last year too yeah you know so with Mike

Evans I could see the back shoulder throw down in the red zone quite a bit oh yeah nobody he does that really well and you know when you throw into a six foot five wide receivers got a seven foot wingspan that's exactly what you want to be doing
