Episode Description from the Publisher

First Take begins as the Bijan Robinson and the Falcons demolished the Saints on Monday Night Football. Both Bijan and Brian Robinson ran all over the Saints defense as Michael Penix Jr. showed once again that he can be a true franchise QB for Atlanta. Could the Falcons make some noise in the NFC? Next the New York Yankees are one game away from losing in the American League Division Series for the second straight year. After only having one hit in game one and four errors in game two, could this series be going any worse for New York? Should Aaron Boone be managing for his job? Then the Knicks and their superstar center, Karl-Anthony Towns, are reported to be far apart on his contract extension. How long can New York let this linger? Do they have to sign KAT to still be a contender? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
