00:00:06,760 --> 00:00:09,399
Speaker 1: The Giants are headed on the road to Houston for

2
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:12,639
Speaker 1: a Week three matchup with the Texans. Welcome to Crossfire

3
00:00:12,720 --> 00:00:15,360
Speaker 1: presented by a Prime Point. I'm Madeline Burke, joined by

4
00:00:15,360 --> 00:00:18,200
Speaker 1: Howard Cross and Carl Banks and guys is. The Giants

5
00:00:18,239 --> 00:00:20,880
Speaker 1: look to go against this Texans pass rush. What is

6
00:00:20,920 --> 00:00:23,800
Speaker 1: their best approach the quick passing game or bringing in

7
00:00:23,840 --> 00:00:27,080
Speaker 1: the tight ends for extra protection A quick passes have

8
00:00:27,120 --> 00:00:28,640
Speaker 1: nothing to do it or bringing in the tight ends.

9
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,000
Speaker 1: Run the ball. If you run the ball, you upset

10
00:00:31,040 --> 00:00:33,519
Speaker 1: the pass rush greatly. You get stake one out of

11
00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:36,440
Speaker 1: the backfield. He can help out a lot. I don't

12
00:00:36,440 --> 00:00:38,159
Speaker 1: know if you can really stop a pass rush like

13
00:00:38,200 --> 00:00:40,240
Speaker 1: these guys got. Well, you have to be able to

14
00:00:40,280 --> 00:00:43,200
Speaker 1: stop the pass rush because there it's inevitable you're gonna

15
00:00:43,240 --> 00:00:45,720
Speaker 1: have to pass the ball. I'm saying you start off

16
00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,720
Speaker 1: with the quick stuff, utilize your back so that he

17
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,559
Speaker 1: can get the deep stuff open for you. I like that,

18
00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:54,080
Speaker 1: but you really need to, you know, start the game

19
00:00:54,280 --> 00:00:57,560
Speaker 1: and established to run. To run can control the entire offense.

20
00:00:57,560 --> 00:01:00,200
Speaker 1: In their defense, these guys are great, but they're not

21
00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,040
Speaker 1: always the kind of guys who want to be in

22
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:05,320
Speaker 1: there getting smashed around. Knocked around, stepped on, getting up

23
00:01:05,319 --> 00:01:07,399
Speaker 1: out of piles. That's how you stop the pass rush.

24
00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,280
Speaker 1: Make them get up off the ground, make guys get

25
00:01:09,319 --> 00:01:12,760
Speaker 1: off of them. Well, you can pass to run. There's

26
00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:17,320
Speaker 1: a thing called swing passes, dumped downs, checkdowns. You want

27
00:01:17,319 --> 00:01:20,840
Speaker 1: to get some of that the area open so that

28
00:01:20,880 --> 00:01:22,680
Speaker 1: they can run the football. You don't want to have

29
00:01:22,760 --> 00:01:26,240
Speaker 1: to have them getting defeated right away. It doesn't always

30
00:01:26,240 --> 00:01:28,480
Speaker 1: have to be third and ten or third, a third

31
00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:30,880
Speaker 1: and fifteen, second and two. Well, in week two, in

32
00:01:30,920 --> 00:01:33,479
Speaker 1: Week two in Dallas, we saw a lot of checkdowns

33
00:01:33,480 --> 00:01:35,840
Speaker 1: and Kuon Barkley. Pat Sherman said, Hey, se Kwan with

34
00:01:35,920 --> 00:01:37,920
Speaker 1: the ball in his hands is never a bad thing.

35
00:01:38,440 --> 00:01:40,880
Speaker 1: But is there perhaps like another approach that these guys

36
00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,640
Speaker 1: want to take instead of the checkdown constant? Well, sometimes

37
00:01:43,680 --> 00:01:45,560
Speaker 1: you gotta take what they give you. And that's what

38
00:01:45,640 --> 00:01:48,800
Speaker 1: they gave them, and you know, se Kwan Barkley is

39
00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:52,600
Speaker 1: a threat in in space. There's an extension of the run.

40
00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:54,200
Speaker 1: You know, I don't like to say it, but it

41
00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:55,560
Speaker 1: is an extension of the run. To give him the

42
00:01:55,560 --> 00:01:57,440
Speaker 1: ball out in the open that you have one guy

43
00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,040
Speaker 1: out there trying to figure out what to do he's

44
00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:01,800
Speaker 1: chaking them, baking him, spending stepping over them. Guys are

45
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:05,120
Speaker 1: on their on his highlight film already and he's catching

46
00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: about one yard behind the line of scrimmage. And the

47
00:02:08,120 --> 00:02:10,919
Speaker 1: more people they have to send to him, the more

48
00:02:10,960 --> 00:02:13,840
Speaker 1: people the Giants will have opened down the field, all right, Well,

49
00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:16,919
Speaker 1: The Giants in Texans kickoff at one pm Eastern Sunday

50
00:02:16,919 --> 00:02:18,000
Speaker 1: afternoon in Houston,
