    Being a fan
    Hi guys. I’ve been a Giants fan for over almost 70 years. I’ve watched them through thick and thin a lot of thin. Some thick lol. I have never been completely disinterested as I am now. But… You guys are insightful, entertaining, and keep me coming back to the podcast even though I no longer watch the football games. Thank you!

    Misery loves company
    Dan and Nick are great. Give great perspectives on player development and make listening to Giant topics enjoyable despite being about the most pathetic team possible. Keep it up fellas. I’m in the misery with you.

    Pod
    Awesome pod. Hard to be a Giants currently. Dan and Nick do a great job, have fun banter together, & the film breakdowns are excellent. It’s my favorite Giants Pod. Touché guys.

    Tired of Dan calling Giant fans stupid
    Dan rants and calls listeners of the show stupid if they have differing opinions. He might want to listen himself and realize how stupid he sounds attacking fans with a different viewpoint.

  • NONEEE
    Good podcast
    Nick and Dan know their stuff and it’s a great and informative listen. I know it’s a tough season but Dan’s rants and mocking fans who have different views has gotten old. I’m gonna try a few different podcasts

    New York Giants Football Big Blue Banter
    If you’re a New York Giants fan, Big Blue Banter with Nick Falato and Dan Schneier is a must-listen. They break down games, dive into film, and give solid previews that go way beyond the usual hot takes. Nick and Dan have great chemistry, mixing smart analysis with the kind of passion only real fans bring. The podcast has also earned respect from former and current players, who follow along and sometimes join as guests. My favorite episodes are when podcasters from other teams hop on, adding fresh perspectives and making for even better discussions. Whether the team’s flying high or struggling, they keep it real while staying optimistic. It’s the perfect mix of insight and fun, making every episode feel like you’re chatting New York Giants football with friends.

  • 56N11 giants
    Thank you
    Great podcast on the Giants which helps you learn football. Appreciate you watching the tape over and over when we stink to give factual analysis Also like the golf stories and food especially at the end of the shows Keep up the great work

    Annoying
    I started listening this offseason and liked the content, but I think it’s time to unsubscribe. I know we have a pretty bad team, but I don’t need to hear the host going on these rants and yelling several times throughout the episode. I keep having to adjust the volume in the car, and the worst is when I’m wearing headphones. These outbursts feel forced at times so please cut it out, or learn some better coping skills. You’re a grown man acting like a child.

    Great show listen listen everyone week
    Keep it up guys! Don’t be afraid to be more negative

    Great show, bad bagel recommendations
    These guys break down film and have great insight. Don’t trust there bagel recommendations. Church st bagels in denville was gross. They weren’t bagels. Tasted like rolls. The Taylor ham was not real Taylor ham. One of the worst sandwiches I ever had. Go to tfab. Time for a bagel is so much better boys. Stop wasting you carbs on that junk.
  • BigBlue021
    Nick, you need a new cohost.
    Unfortunately, Dan is one of those media members who thinks he’s extremely informed on actual football analysis and could perform better than most current GMs/ coaches. He lacks depth and understanding of the way the nfl works particularly with respect to the cap and play by play analysis. Nick is well on his way to being a go to giants guy, but he needs to move on from Dan. Unfortunately dan just doesn’t have the knowledge or skill set to consistently put out content for more than the super casual fan. His holier than thou attitude is also part of the problem, can tell nick works on his craft, trying to learn and out out better and better stuff for fans, dan is convinced he already knows it all, the attitude is brutal. Nick- do yourself a favor- get a new cohost ! You have a future in this space if you’re able to separate from DS. Thanks,

    Great show! Question for you
    Dan and Nick, I’ve been listening for a few years, and I love the show and your analysis. Thank you! Comment which leads to a question. Comment: I heard on a podcast (maybe yours) about how an up-and-coming QB (I forget which QB/team, unfortunately) was coached to improve his read progressions by the OC asking the DC to take away the QB’s first read during practices. The point was that doing so improved the QB’s ability to diagnose the coverage more quickly in practice and it apparently translated to game day. Question: This coaching technique seems like it could work to improve post-snap processing speed for a young QB. (1) Do you know how frequently it is used or have more information about its viability? (2) Can it apply for the Giants and DJ? Context: DJ is consistently praised for his work ethic, smarts, and general athletic talent, even if his arm talent isn’t elite. I think the biggest problem I’ve heard you both criticize him for is the post-snap decision making. Could this coaching technique help?

    My guys. Best NYG podcast
  • JPE I
    Outstanding content
    Great and fair breakdowns of players, games, and decisions. They love the Giants but are not homers. I have followed football (and played in school) since the 1980s and I have learned so much from Dan and Nick. Great listen.
  • FernetLover69
    Great listen!
    Love these guys!
  • kalsched
    Great show. But nobody cares about your golf obsession
    Seriously, there are few things as annoying as people talking about their golf game. Stop. Otherwise, love the show. Thanks for all the insightful analysis and hard work that goes into it.
  • Dho86
    Good show
    Been a listener for the past 3 years but starting to sour on the show due to Dan’s inability to be succinct in his thoughts. He does 80%of the talking although I think Nick is better. Also way too many commercials compared to other podcasts. Still a good show but not great. Prefer Talking Giants at this point.
  • JuanRemarqo
    Great podcast
    Great source for wonky insider info about the G-men from two guys who seem to know football - or at least know it better than I.
  • Rug Daniels
    Great Giants Content
    This is a great podcast for Giants fans, Dan & Nick do a great job providing both balanced analysis of the team as well as a fan perspective. The guys are both very entertaining. Big Blue Banter is always very current putting up multiple episodes a week during the season & draft time.
  • Euk King
    Great podcast
    I’ve been listening for a few yrs now. Excellent podcast. I listen to every episode. Really good. Keep it up guys!
  • Big Blue 1990
    Best. Giants. Podcast. Period.
    If you want the in-depth analysis that goes into X's and O's who have the passion and knowledge you share because you bleed Blue, this is the first and best podcast + YouTube shows on the internet. Period. Thank you Dan and Nick for putting in the work that us fans get to benefit from!! Been a fan in the early years and absolutely love how you've taken it to the next level on YouTube with video clips.
  • Bsilky
    Awesome Big Blue Podcast!!
    Love the podcast, have been listening from the beginning!! 2 mocks w/trades. One going after Maye, the second going after Nix or Rattler. Both only first 5 rounds mocks. 3. Maye (#6, 24 2nd, 25 2nd) 88. Javon Bullard S 107. Jermaine Burton WR (upside, off field issues hoped fixed) 126. Mason McCormick G SD State (traits) 166. Issac Guerendo RB Louisville (traits) I like this second one better. I like Nix and Rattler. 22. Quinyon Mitchell CB 41. Nix Qb (a lot higher on him then most) 52. Ricky Pearsall WR 70. Kris Jenkins DL (love his upside) 76. Jaden Hicks S 77. Christian Mahogany G 120. Audric Estime RB 121. Theo Johnson TE 137. Javon Baker WR Absolutely Love Maye but really think with how deep this draft is trading back could be huge with all our needs. Sured up secondary with S and CB and defensive line with Jenkins. On offense, surrounding around Nix, 2 WR, TE, RB and Guard. Didn’t even pick last two rounds. Thoughts??

    Best Giants podcast
    Been listening to this show since the beginning. It is the show I consistently prioritize over every other Giants program. I’ve gotten countless giants fans to tune in. Here’s my mock: 6: Nabers WR LSU 47: Michael Penix QB Washington 70: Ruke Orhorhoro DT Clemson 107: Ben Sinnott TE Kansas State 166: Tykee Smith S Georgia 183: Nehemiah Pritchett CB Auburn
  • Astrodoc71
    Too much commercial time
    I know you need commercials but in comparison to other podcasts in my opinion it's way too much. Ditch the whole probiotics thing. I know you guys don't take that stuff. Other than that great podcast!
  • NYG OG
    Grateful for interesting content
    Dan and Nick combine enthusiasm and hard work into real depth of coverage of beloved NYG. This is the antidote for mediocre coverage of national media. Intelligent and funny(which we have desperately needed through an ugly season). Thank you!
  • Ultimate Los
    Top rate
    Dan Schneir’s taste in rock guitarist takes it over the top. Duane Allman, Skynard crash , and Stevie Ray Vaughn devastating losses. But his love for Wink is misguided. Wink’s defenses are overrated. He’s got to go.
  • Tchizzle2259
    Good Podcast
    I enjoy Nick and Dan. Love their passion and enjoy the X’s and O’s content. My one criticism is I think soliciting donations in exchange to ask a question on the postgame shows is cheesy. I get that the podcast industry isn’t lucrative for many but it shouldn’t be up to your listeners to pay you, unless you set up a subscription model.
  • Tone from Albany
    Tony B
    Schneier & Falato are changing the dynamic of NY Giants podcasting. The All-22 breakdowns are fantastic. You get the analytics takes from Nick, and you get the 30,000ft philosophical takes from Schneier, it’s a great contrast.
  • Nicksfan88
    A must for Giants fans
    Love the Xs and Os (especially the all-22 breakdowns on YouTube) and the way the fellas make it accessible for fans who are knowledgeable and maybe not expert level. Their enthusiasm and energy provide a nice, upbeat tempo even after a loss and of course their banter is enjoyable. Absolutely something I look forward to and a must listen for Giants fans. Good job, guys!
  • Krnj
    Great!
    I check every day for new podcasts. Dan and Nick know their stuff. Highly entertaining and informative. If you like hard-core breakdowns of giant football this is for you!
  • GlennLGR
    Best NYG Podcast
    These guys tell it straight. They are knowledgeable football guys who happen to be Giants fans. Not afraid to critique or praise star players or 53rd guy on roster. Really enjoy listening to all the episodes and look forward to new ones each week! By the way, the All-22 episodes are my favorite and are not too long. Great work Dan and Nick! Go Giants!
  • Chris Tanghero
    Great Giants podcast
    This is a must listen to podcast if you’re a Giants fan. Nick and Dan are great at breaking down the game. I listen to every episode and look forward each week to hear their reviews.
  • F23A4
    Super insightful
    No homerism here, straight facts with great insight. Love it!
  • adrianrodz0309
    Best Giants Podcast!
    Great content guys! I actually enjoy the long podcast.
  • PeteP10
    Best NYG Pod
    BBB is the best Giants Podcast. Although as a former football player and current desk jockey I preferred the 3 hour all 22 episodes, sill the best Giants podcast out there!
  • Kev1960
    My fave, Giants win or loss
    Honest opinion, no fanboy, blue-tinted glasses here.
  • AB-CT
    Best NYG Pod Out There
    Best NYG pod out there and it’s not even close, consistently gives me the news and in-depth analysis that I want as a die-hard NYG Fan. One note to Dan…Addressing negative comments (keep those biceps down 😂) and reviews on the pod to the extent that you do and as often as you do is painful to listen to. I understand why you are doing it, but it makes for a few minutes of bad listening. I can easily skip, but I want you guys to keep growing and I fear that might turn off new listeners.
  • Rubee Rub
    Great PodCast!
    Just started listening to podcasts and I’m glad I started with Banter. Great analysis on the game and The Giants and I love how relatable these guys are! All in all will continue to be an avid listener. Thanks Guys!
  • Shrub coconut shrub
    A definite need to listen for NYG fans
    My go to New York Giants podcast. Y’all do some great work.
  • Errors and Misconceptions
    Thank You
    I’m almost ashamed to say this, but my enjoyment of the Giants 2022 season was 50% greater because of this podcast. To say I would miss it if it went away would be an understatement. Dan makes the show go. He cares about getting it right. Most people ho through the motions. Dan is consumed with this stuff and always reevaluating his opinions. He has guts, and if he believes something, he will say it. Sometimes he will get out ahead of himself and drive you crazy with a slander of Pro Football Focus or something, but you have to take the bad with the good. He is also just a good listen and a good teacher. He brings the points home. These guys work staggeringly hard. They are animals. Even in the offseason, they always fill our Giant craving. Nick isn’t a particular favorite or non-favorite of mine, but he works as hard as Dan. His xes and os knowledge seems deep, and he’s rather educated and smart besides, if leaving the charisma to Dan.

    Glossary
    I enjoy the show. But, sometimes the terminology is beyond the knowledge of a Giant fan from the 1950s. Before the new season of your review of the games can you refer your listeners to a glossary to help them understand your discussions.
  • Zacharyeightythree
    Dedicated
    These dudes are just straight up dedicated to pumping out giants content. I’m not always able to keep up with everything they put out but when I just NEED some good giants content I can be sure I’ll find it here. This podcast may not be for the casual fan due to their in depth analysis, but for the crowd who wants to stay constantly updated this is a life saver. Appreciate your work guys! EDIT: I totally understand the BBB in 10 concept, but personally it’s a bit annoying to be constantly tricked into thinking a new podcast is released when in its just snippets of something I heard already. Could this be moved to a separate podcast? I’m sure it would hurt ratings but I think the listener base who is already tuning in is probably used to the longer content form, and a separate podcast could allow fans to have a one stop shop for all of their short form content needs. I’ve grown to love this podcast more and more with time, so no rating change. Thanks for the great work.

    Premier NY Giants content
    These guys do the most in depth, analytical football podcast. They continue to come up with great ideas for their podcast, interact with listeners well, and have takes that are spot on.

    Joe Schoen Overall Offseason
    Hey guys love the show. I’ve been thinking about the draft process and at first I did not like the Deonte Banks trade up, and I still don’t like the idea that the Eagles gave up less to move up higher in the 1st round, but I’ve come around to it because teams (even smart ones) trade up for a non-QB occasionally and late round picks can be acquired later if necessary. As long as Schoen trades down significantly more often than he trades up over the larger sample size, I am happy. I am not as high on his free agency/trades as most are because I believe they placed too many eggs in the Daniel Jones basket with the fact that there will be dead cap in year 3 with the safer franchise tag being an option. To me, the odds of Jones being worth a market value 2nd contact are low because those should only be given to franchise QBs even at the expense of some wins. Even if the very small chance he becomes a franchise QB comes to fruition, I think the extra they would have to pay as a result of opting for the franchise tag would be worth it since a franchise QB is worth the market-setting price. Also, a running back shouldn’t have prevented you from using the tag on Jones and if the 3x13 for Saquon attempted offer is true, that is too much for a RB (bad process) when new needs will open up over the next few seasons. Overall, I’m happy with the offseason and would give it a B+/A- but I don’t think it was Godlike which the Giants fanbase/content creators seem to think it is. Schoen is a God compared to his predecessor but that’s a low bar. What are your thoughts?

    Great Giants Pod w/football education.
