What's Poppin

  • The NY Giants, NFL, and Josh Brown Domestic Violence Issue/Dilemma

  • The NY Jets manage to win a game against the Baltimore Ravens with Geno Smith as quarterback along with Ryan Fitzpatrick who came in when Geno suffered a torn ACL.

VIDEO Discussion: Studio Guest, Freedom Williams, Lukewarm on Geno Smith

There are mixed reviews on Geno Smith coming from the New York media. Recently, the New York Jets held an open practice at MetLife Stadium to welcome the fans and according to media reports, QB, Geno Smith, was booed by the fans because he lost the ball, and had a near interception, among several plays.

Ironically, according to reports, Geno has not thrown an interception during this Jets pre-season camp and many Jets officials are impressed.

Jets officials are saying that it looks like Geno could have a good year. So what’s going on here? Are the jets weaving a good tale or is New York media stuck on last season?

The New York Giants claimed their first win of the season, beating the Washington NFL team, 32-21 and Head Coach, Tom Coughlin expressed that WR Victor Cruz could make his season debut next week against the Buffalo Bills.

At the end of the 2012-2013 Season, the Philadelphia Eagles fired longtime coach Andy Reid after his team won a paltry four games. When the Philadelphia Eagles hired Chip Kelly as their new head coach, he was a breath of fresh air. He was going to bring about new changes and a high powered offense. He achieved success on the collegiate level with his style of offense and some questioned whether or not his system would translate to the professional level. Is Chip Kelly, a boom or bust?
