Best of Giants on WFAN: G-Men need Dart healthy

**Craig Carton** (0:01)
It's The Carton Show with Big Mac on a gorgeous Monday afternoon in New York City. Phone number to join as always, 888-808-101-I.
Got a great show for you today. Sitting in for the big fella is Zach Gelb, is Anthony Gallo, is Connor Von Conner, and you guys on the phone. So, lots of cooking today. I'll start with Zach. Good afternoon. How are you today, pal?

**Zach Gelb** (0:25)
Craig, what's going on? Doing well.

**Craig Carton** (0:27)
Zach, of course, is fresh off a bachelor party in Toronto.
Not Montreal, where Club Supersex is, but Toronto. And what do a group of young guys do on a bachelor party in Toronto, a whole other country? They go to a Yankee Blue J game. The loser says what?

**Zach Gelb** (0:42)
I feel like I was Aaron Boone when everybody else is making the decisions for me.

**Craig Carton** (0:46)
That's what I felt like. It's unbelievable that you... We'll get to it later.

**Zach Gelb** (0:49)
It wasn't my wedding, to be clear. This is not what I would do for my bachelor party.

**Craig Carton** (0:53)
As I've told you a million times, I've told Gow the same thing. The bachelor party is not the groom's decision to make. It is the best man's decision and the dudes who are going to be there for the wedding. The bachelor just has to go along with it. And that means you had a vote and you voted for Blue Jays Yankees at a bachelor party.

**Zach Gelb** (1:13)
I'm not in the wedding party. I don't know why I was invited to this bachelor party.

**Craig Carton** (1:16)
Because of cash, probably. They probably figured a big celebrity like you are. You probably had a couple of extra ducats in your pocket. But in any event, we'll get to that later on in the show.
A lot of talk today, rightfully so, over the New York Giants over the weekend.
Jets as well. We'll start with the Giants here today. But there's one take on Jaxson Dart going into the Blue Tent that not a single person on this radio station has said. And that includes you people listening right now who have called in or are online interacting with the show accounts, right? Right now, it seems like for Giants fans, there's two questions on Jaxson Dart. One, why was he sent to the Blue Tent? He's now gone there, what, like six or seven times in a very short career, including the preseason, right? And the other side is, should he have gone to the tent? That seems to be the debated topics here today. I will tell you in those two topics, that hit where Tyron Tracy misses the block and he gets a helmet right to his chest, that's not on Jaxson Dart. That's not Jaxson Dart being stupid. It's not on Jaxson Dart not listening to the coaches. It's not on Jaxson Dart being a youthful exuberant and trying to get an extra yard. A blitz came off the corner, he never saw it, it's football. Why did he go to the blue tent? Because he stayed on the ground for an extra five seconds. If he pops right back up, guess what? There's a better than 50-50 chance that he's not going to the tent.
Agree?

**Zach Gelb** (2:42)
Yeah, like here's the weird part about this. He has been a reckless player, but the other day had nothing to do, like you said, with him being reckless. Tyrone Tracy's got to pick up the block, and now the coach sent a little message to him, bringing in Najee Harris.

**Craig Carton** (2:55)
Tyrone Tracy's days as a giant are over because he missed that block and put the franchise quarterback at harm's way in a preseason game. Najee Harris had the torn Achilles in week three last year, so he's about all the way back now. Obviously, he's a veteran. Everybody knows his name.
Yeah, Tyrone Tracy might have caused himself a job with the Giants.

**Zach Gelb** (3:17)
And two things on Najee Harris. One, even though he only played three games last year, he was with Jim Harbaugh, so John probably knows everything that he needs to know about him. Sure. And also, very good pass blocker.

**Craig Carton** (3:27)
Which is what Tyrone Tracy had that one player play obviously wasn't.

**Zach Gelb** (3:32)
But that's what I like with Harbaugh. The Giants have been a mess for the last decade. He's saying, you miss a block and get our quarterback killed? We're bringing somebody else in whether or not they end up cutting Tyrone Tracy or not is a different story. But, if I'm Tyrone Tracy today, I'm saying my blocking better be better.
