EPISODE 142: GIANTS SEASON IN REVIEW, OFFSEASON PREVIEW
January 23, 2023
All good things come to an end.
The Giants were not supposed to be in the NFC Divisional Round and coming off a road playoff win. They were supposed to be vacationing and preparing for free agency and the NFL draft. This team overachieved in every sense of the word, considering all the injuries it dealt with. It was a heck of a first season under head coach Brian Daboll and GM Joe Schoen. The culture has turned for the best and it seems the future is bright for Big Blue.
That being said, this team was embarrassed in Philly. It was never in the game Saturday night. At halftime, the game felt over. The Giants did not look like they belonged on the same field as the Eagles in the playoffs or in the regular season when the starters played. While it was a season for Giants fans to be happy about, they need to go out and get better in the offseason if they want to overcome a much better Eagles team in the NFC East, where the Giants went a lowly 1-4-1 in the division.
We have lots to cover on the season finale of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz, Brandon London and Jake Brown. We will be back come free agency in March. Thanks to Andrew Harts for helping me produce the podcast all season.

EPISODE 141: GIANTS-EAGLES BATTLE FOR NFC CHAMPIONSHIP FEAT. EVAN NEAL, JIHAD WARD
January 19, 2023
Will the third time be the charm for the Giants?
The Eagles have had Big Blue’s number for years. The Giants badly want to change that Saturday night in Philadelphia when the teams meet for a third time this season. This one feels different, though. The Giants are a much improved and healthier team from the first time they played the Eagles in December. And the last game of the season, they did not play their starters. This team is riding momentum and a QB that is playing at an elite level. This should be a primetime thriller in the City of Brotherly Love.
To give an in-depth preview of the Giants-Eagles NFC Divisional Round playoff matchup, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Brandon London, Lawrence Tynes and Paul Schwartz. Brandon also spoke with Giants OL Evan Neal and LB Jihad Ward in the locker room after a practice this week.

EPISODE 140: DANIEL JONES PROPELS GIANTS TO FIRST PLAYOFF WIN IN 11 YEARS
January 16, 2023
Our way.
That has been the Giants’ motto this season. They have been winning games their way. They did it again on Sunday in Minnesota. Daniel Jones put together a historic performance to propel Big Blue in his first career playoff game. He looked like a 10-year vet that had been there before, delivering balls to his receivers and using his legs to dominate the run game. He threw for 301 yards with two passing TDs and ran for 78 yards. Franchise QB.
It’s on to Philadelphia for Brian Daboll’s bunch as they head to the Divisional Round Saturday for Part III against the Eagles. To react to the 31-24 win over the Vikings in the wild-card round and look ahead, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz, Brandon London and Jake Brown.

EPISODE 138: GIANTS’ BACKUPS SHOW FIGHT IN PHILLY, HEAD INTO PLAYOFFS HEALTHY
January 9, 2023
None of us thought we would be getting ready for a Giants playoff game this week when the season started.
This is Season 4 of the “Blue Rush” podcast and finally it has happened. Big Blue will gear up to play the Vikings in a wild-card playoff matchup in Minnesota at 4:30 p.m. on Sunday.
They closed their season with all the backups getting a chance to play, including third-string QB Davis Webb. What an effort they got from Webb and company, fighting the NFC-leading Eagles to the final few minutes, falling 22-16. A bunch of backups showed grit in a game that meant nothing for the Giants and everything for the Eagles. Brian Daboll and the coaching staff have done an unbelievable job with this roster.
But the job ain’t done yet. If the Giants lose in Minnesota on Sunday, sure it would still be considered a successful season…but that is definitely not the mentality this team has, nor should it. The Giants have a legit chance to beat the Vikings, who they nearly beat in Minnesota two weeks ago. They are playing with house money and you never know what will happen when the playoffs come around. Lawrence Tynes knows it well, being a part of two Giants Super Bowl championship teams that were heavy underdogs going into the postseason.
Tynes, Paul Schwartz, Brandon London and Jake Brown break down what we saw in Philly Sunday and look ahead to the Giants-Vikings playoff game on a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast.

EPISODE 137: HOW SHOULD GIANTS APPROACH REGULAR SEASON FINALE IN PHILLY?
January 5, 2023
To play or to not play? That is the question.
The result of Sunday’s game means absolutely nothing on paper for the Giants. They are locked into the 6th seed in the NFC and are set to play whoever ends up being the No. 3 seed. Winning against the Eagles in Philadelphia could knock them out of winning the NFC East and demote them to the first wild-card spot. It could help their confidence heading into the playoffs. But at what risk? Do you risk one of your key players getting hurt and missing a playoff game?
On a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London, the guys break down how the Giants should approach their regular season finale against the Eagles Sunday.

EPISODE 136: JONES, GIANTS DOMINATE COLTS, CLINCH A PLAYOFF SPOT
January 2, 2023
A year ago the Giants were kneeling multiple times as actual play calls…and were giving fans at MetLife Stadium a free medium Pepsi for the product they were watching.
This time around, the Giants fans got to celebrate the clinching of a playoff spot in the final home game of the season. Giants fans are now all in, and rightfully so, on the Daniel Jones train. He has proven to everyone that he is the franchise QB and should be here for the long haul. Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen changed the culture of Giants football back to where it belongs. Six years later, the Giants are back in the postseason.

December 24, 2022
The Giants may have fell short on Saturday in Minnesota, but boy did they put up one hell of a fight.
This team was right there with the second best team in the NFC and really should have prevailed with a win. Daniel Jones keeps on proving to the doubters why the Giants should bring him back. He has shown grit and fight with not a ton of big names around him. Thanks to losses from the teams below them, the Giants are now in a win-and-in scenario against the Colts next Sunday at MetLife Stadium on the first day of 2023.

December 22, 2022
The Giants are in prime position to make the playoffs. Even if they lose Saturday in Minnesota to the 11-3 Vikings, they are in good shape. But the Vikings have looked shaky and have won mostly one possession games.
This is a winnable game, but will be a tough one in rowdy conditions. Can Big Blue win their second straight?
To preview the game, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London.

EPISODE 132: PRIMETIME THIBODEAUX LEADS GIANTS TO HUGE WIN FEAT. TALKIN’ GIANTS
December 19, 2022
“Prime time likes me.”
Kayvon Thibodeaux was 100 percent right about that. The Giants rookie had the best game of his young career when the team needed it most Sunday night on the road against the Commanders. Twelve tackles, a sack, a forced fumble and recovery for a touchdown was the difference in the game. The Giants are now in a great position to make the playoffs.
To react to the 20-12 win over the Commanders, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Brandon London and Jake Brown. We had fun doing a crossover episode of the podcast with Justin Penik and Bobby Skinner from the “Talkin’ Giants” podcast.

EPISODE 131: TOM COUGHLIN TALKS GIANTS MEMORIES, NEW BOOK “A GIANT WIN”
December 15, 2022
Sunday’s Giants-Commanders matchup is essentially a playoff game for both teams. The winner has the upper hand on one of the final playoff spots in the NFC. The loser will have work to do and need some help.
Can the Giants overcome the tie two weeks ago and prevail on the road?
Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London have an in-depth preview of the game and make their predictions on the latest “Blue Rush” podcast. More importantly though, we are joined on the show by the legendary Giants head coach, two-time Super Bowl champion Tom Coughlin.
The former Giants coach takes us down memory lane, revisiting the magical 2007 season and the run to a Super Bowl title, which he also details in his new book out now “A Giant Win.”

EPISODE 130: GIANTS EMBARRASSED BY EAGLES, BUT STILL CONTROL OWN DESTINY
December 12, 2022
The Giants got their butts kicked on Sunday in their own building. The Eagles proved once again why they are the best team in the NFL right now.
The Giants showed that they don’t deserve to make the playoffs. But they are still in a playoff spot right now. They can still redeem themselves, despite not winning a game in a month.
They will need to right the ship next week against the Commanders.
To break down what happened in Sunday’s 48-22 loss, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London.

EPISODE 129: GIANTS’ TOUGH TEST AHEAD AGAINST EAGLES FEAT. DAVE TOLLEFSON
December 8, 2022
Sunday could get ugly for the Giants.
They are winless in their last three games and coming off a lackluster tie against the Commanders. This week, it’s the NFL-best Eagles coming to MetLife Stadium to take on a Giants team limping their way into this game. They are battered and bruised and are just trying to scratch out a few wins to sneak into the playoffs. Getting one of those wins is unlikely against the 11-1 Eagles.
To preview Giants-Eagles, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London. Two-time Giants Super Bowl champion Dave Tollefson stops by this week.

EPISODE 128: GIANTS TIE COMMANDERS, WILL THEY STILL MAKE THE PLAYOFFS?
December 5, 2022
Ties suck.
The NFL needs to go back to 15-minute overtimes or figure out a way to not have games end in a tie. It’s a disservice to the fans, the players and everyone involved.
With that said, the Giants can’t buy a victory right now. They are a downward spiral with still plenty of key injuries. But, they are still in a playoff spot. They still control their own destiny.
To react to the strange 20-20 finish against the Commanders, we bring you a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London.

EPISODE 127: GIANTS BADLY NEED A WIN OVER COMMANDERS FEAT. ANDREW THOMAS
December 1, 2022
Meaningful December football at MetLife Stadium. It’s been a while.
The Giants’ matchup against the Commanders Sunday should be a playoff atmosphere between two division rivals duking it out for one of the final postseason spots in the NFC. The Commanders have won six of seven and Taylor Heinicke has them rolling.
But the Giants have key players returning from injuries and that could be the big difference in their home building as they look to end their own losing streak. To preview the 7-4 Giants against the 7-5 Commanders, we bring you a new “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Paul Schwartz and Brandon London. Brandon chats with Giants offensive tackle Andrew Thomas about the game and his stellar season.

EPISODE 126: WHERE DO 7-4 GIANTS STAND AFTER LOSS IN DALLAS?
November 25, 2022
The Giants didn’t have much to work with in Dallas on Thursday. Essentially half their starters were out. They put up a fight, taking a lead into the third quarter, but the Cowboys had too much firepower on both sides of the ball. They got the help on two huge calls from the officials. All of that led to a 28-20 Giants loss to their NFC East rival, dropping their second straight game and falling to 7-4 on the season.
Will the Giants crumble or will they still end up making the playoffs? We answer that and break down the Thanksgiving loss on a new episode of the “Blue Rush” podcast with Lawrence Tynes, Brandon London and Jake Brown.
