Malik Nabers Criticized for Media No-Show and Shaun O’Hara’s New Look

Craig Carton (0:00)

Remind me, I was watching some of the Giants post-game show on MSG, Big Mac, and I see Carl Banks there, he's getting older, gray beard now, and he's got the beanie on, the winter hat on, the sweatshirt, the jacket, like layered up. And then I see Imani Tumer there, good friend, love Imani. And then I'm like, who's the white guy?

Slender white fella in between Carl Banks and Imani Tumer. And I'm like, what wide receiver am I forgetting that played for the New York Giants? I'm like, is that Phil McConkey? Not Phil McConkey, that was Shaun O'Hara.

Chris McMonigle (0:38)

It's Shaun O'Hara.

Craig Carton (0:40)

Shaun O'Hara is like 110 pounds soaking wet now.

Chris McMonigle (0:43)

He's lost a lot of weight. Is he sick? No, he's healthy, he's looking great.

Craig Carton (0:46)

He looks fantastic.

Chris McMonigle (0:47)

He looks fantastic. Yeah, he's got big eyeballs. He's also layered too, and he's got that very popular kind of quarter zip look with the tie and the shirt.

Craig Carton (0:56)

Yeah, the tie is overkill, but the tie, you tried too hard.

Chris McMonigle (0:59)

That's the look. Shirt, tie, the blue quarter zip, and then he's got also the scarf and then a sports coat.

Craig Carton (1:07)

It's too much.

Chris McMonigle (1:08)

It's a lot. He's got a lot of layers.

Craig Carton (1:09)

Yeah, I would say that those three guys are among the manliest men I know.

And I don't know, Shaun O'Hara, well, I'm sure I've talked to him a few times. Amani, I count as a friend, and Carl I've known forever. But winter jackets, wool hats.

Chris McMonigle (1:24)

It's cold outside.

Craig Carton (1:25)

Come on. We're football players.

Chris McMonigle (1:27)

Let's act this out. They're not football players.

Craig Carton (1:28)

I don't wear a jacket today. It's 40 degrees outside. It's raining. I got a hoodie on because I'm a man.

But Shaun O'Hara's got the tie, the quarter zip, the jacket, the star. I mean, what happened to him?

Chris McMonigle (1:39)

He's working outside. You walk from your car to the inside.

SPEAKER_3 (1:44)

You kind of walk that is on a Friday all through the side of the street parking.

Chris McMonigle (1:49)

I'm well aware of it.

Craig Carton (1:50)

I'm well aware of it.

Chris McMonigle (1:51)

I make that same walk every day.

Craig Carton (1:53)

Yeah, I prefer to get to all your calls because I want to get to all your calls. We do a thing on the show. If you've listened to it for a while, you know what it is. If not, it's going to be the first time. But we give out the weekly.

So who do you give the gas face to for last night's loss? And if you are playing along at home, it can be anyone from head coach to coordinator to player to, you name it. But you only have to give out one. Who gets the week 10 loss? According to you, sir.

Chris McMonigle (2:27)

I really think it's a very difficult one because there's a lot to spread around. But I think that play call is bad enough. The naggy JJ McCarthy sweep. I think Matt Nagy gets it.

Craig Carton (2:36)

Okay.

Chris McMonigle (2:36)

If I had to give one.

I don't think he wears it alone. I genuinely do not. But if I have to give one, that play call was terrible. I thought at the end of the game, it's partly on the quarterback. But they have 40 seconds, two timeouts. And all they need is a field goal. And they're throwing bombs. I think it's more on JJ McCarthy. I think it's a lot on JJ McCarthy. But I didn't like that either.

Craig Carton (2:58)

He went security blanket, right? He's got the best receiver on the field.

Chris McMonigle (3:02)

Yeah.

Craig Carton (3:02)

And you can make an argument that if he doesn't get hit, that's a touchdown.

Chris McMonigle (3:05)

He had guys underneath. There was no need to go deep on every play.

Craig Carton (3:08)

Yeah. Quick thing on Malik Nabers, by the way.

Chris McMonigle (3:11)

Yeah. We need to talk about Malik Nabers.

Craig Carton (3:12)

One, on the likely touchdown, first guy in the end zone to celebrate, Malik Nabers.

Chris McMonigle (3:19)

Not only that, up the field laying blocks to make sure it likely gets in the end zone.

Craig Carton (3:23)

So I don't want to hear about Malik Nabers as a bad teammate. He celebrated it before anybody. Number two, though, he obviously has the fumble, and it was a fumble. It's not argued that.
