1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:05,640 Speaker 1: It's time to get inside the Giants Huts. Giants Out 2 00:00:05,680 --> 00:00:08,200 Speaker 1: My Giants, Moblo give me some June part of the 3 00:00:08,240 --> 00:00:10,280 Speaker 1: Giants Podcast Network's role. 4 00:00:10,520 --> 00:00:13,400 Speaker 2: Welcome to the Giants Huddle Podcast, brought to you by Citizens, 5 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,000 Speaker 2: the official bank of the New York Football Giants. My 6 00:00:16,079 --> 00:00:18,480 Speaker 2: name is Madeline Burke, alongside the Super Bowl champ Shawn 7 00:00:18,560 --> 00:00:21,400 Speaker 2: O'Hara for your Week ten rapid reaction. The Giants went 8 00:00:21,400 --> 00:00:23,800 Speaker 2: out to Dallas and fell to the Cowboys. Forty nine 9 00:00:23,880 --> 00:00:27,159 Speaker 2: to seventeen was the final score. Of course, though, the 10 00:00:27,160 --> 00:00:30,400 Speaker 2: big storyline heading into this game and after a sean 11 00:00:30,640 --> 00:00:33,360 Speaker 2: was the fact that rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito making his 12 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,680 Speaker 2: very first NFL start against the Dallas Cowboys in Dallas. 13 00:00:37,680 --> 00:00:39,880 Speaker 2: For an undrafted rookie, that's a tall task. 14 00:00:40,120 --> 00:00:42,680 Speaker 3: Yeah, I'm an undrafted guy. So I remember my very 15 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:44,720 Speaker 3: first start in the NFL. It was against the Baltimore 16 00:00:44,800 --> 00:00:47,400 Speaker 3: Ravens in two thousand. In Baltimore. They were the best 17 00:00:47,400 --> 00:00:49,760 Speaker 3: defense in the league and arguably one of the best 18 00:00:49,800 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 3: defenses to have ever existed, price second to the eighty 19 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:56,760 Speaker 3: five Bears. So quite a challenge for Tommy DeVito. And 20 00:00:56,800 --> 00:00:59,240 Speaker 3: as if that wasn't challenging enough. 21 00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 4: To be on the road going against Dallas. 22 00:01:01,600 --> 00:01:03,880 Speaker 3: This great defense with Micah Parson's on one side and 23 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:06,840 Speaker 3: the Marcus Lawrence on the other. His first drive starts 24 00:01:06,840 --> 00:01:10,160 Speaker 3: on the three inch line. The Giants get a defensive stop, 25 00:01:10,560 --> 00:01:13,480 Speaker 3: a goal line stand which was phenomenal. It was great 26 00:01:13,520 --> 00:01:16,640 Speaker 3: penetration and out tries Tommy DeVito and he's like, this 27 00:01:16,680 --> 00:01:18,759 Speaker 3: is where I got to start. This is where this 28 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:22,600 Speaker 3: is where my first start begins. And you know, look, 29 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:26,680 Speaker 3: he it was tough sledding for him and the entire offense. 30 00:01:26,760 --> 00:01:29,520 Speaker 3: But I think when you look at the way that 31 00:01:29,560 --> 00:01:32,000 Speaker 3: he handled the entire part of the game, he was 32 00:01:32,120 --> 00:01:35,560 Speaker 3: under to rest the entire time, he showed a lot 33 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,280 Speaker 3: of character, a lot of strength, some athletic ability, and 34 00:01:38,319 --> 00:01:40,800 Speaker 3: he threw for two touchdowns. So there's a lot to 35 00:01:40,840 --> 00:01:44,120 Speaker 3: take away from this. And if you're Tommy DeVito and say, hey, 36 00:01:44,120 --> 00:01:45,840 Speaker 3: I did some good things, I can build on some 37 00:01:45,880 --> 00:01:46,240 Speaker 3: of that. 38 00:01:46,360 --> 00:01:47,840 Speaker 2: And not just what he did on the field, but 39 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 2: off of it. After the game, you know, going to 40 00:01:49,520 --> 00:01:52,000 Speaker 2: the podium addressing the media as a starting quarterback. The 41 00:01:52,040 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 2: way that he handled that with such poise after such 42 00:01:54,320 --> 00:01:55,080 Speaker 2: a tough loss. 43 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 4: Yeah, and that's not easy. I mean, look, if you 44 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,080 Speaker 4: look at the stat line, look. 45 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:01,000 Speaker 3: He was five for twenty five for eighty six yards, 46 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:03,040 Speaker 3: and you would say, oh, my goodness, that's awful. And 47 00:02:03,160 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: you know what, he didn't have a lot going for 48 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:09,080 Speaker 3: him offensively. It was a real struggle for him to 49 00:02:09,120 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: even have time to hit an open receiver and if 50 00:02:11,639 --> 00:02:14,679 Speaker 3: there was one. So it was certainly a challenging time 51 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:16,760 Speaker 3: from that standpoint. But I think when you look at 52 00:02:16,760 --> 00:02:19,480 Speaker 3: the way he handled and approached that first start, the 53 00:02:19,560 --> 00:02:21,640 Speaker 3: way that he handled the work week. You know, playing 54 00:02:21,720 --> 00:02:24,080 Speaker 3: quarterback is tough because you've got to play the game 55 00:02:24,160 --> 00:02:25,679 Speaker 3: on the field, and you've got to play the game 56 00:02:25,720 --> 00:02:29,119 Speaker 3: off the field, which is handling the media standing up there, 57 00:02:29,600 --> 00:02:31,560 Speaker 3: you know, taking all the shots, taking all the blame. 58 00:02:31,919 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 3: He didn't deflect, he didn't winced, he didn't blink, and 59 00:02:36,080 --> 00:02:38,679 Speaker 3: I think that kind of shows the toughness that you 60 00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 3: would expect from a Jersey kid. You know, Look, he 61 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,520 Speaker 3: went to Syracuse, transferred went to Illinois, so he's battle tested, 62 00:02:45,200 --> 00:02:47,720 Speaker 3: and I think he showed some good resilience, not just 63 00:02:47,840 --> 00:02:50,080 Speaker 3: on the field, but the way that he handled all 64 00:02:50,200 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 3: the questions and the way he handled this loss and 65 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:53,880 Speaker 3: how he's going to spring it forward. 66 00:02:54,080 --> 00:02:55,960 Speaker 2: Absolutely. And you know, we talked a little bit too. 67 00:02:56,000 --> 00:02:58,560 Speaker 2: You mentioned that that early stopped by the Giants defense 68 00:02:58,639 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 2: right Dallas was driving down the field. They were really 69 00:03:02,200 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 2: in like five yards away from the goal, and the 70 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:08,360 Speaker 2: defense kind of comes up with a strong stop stuffs 71 00:03:08,400 --> 00:03:10,120 Speaker 2: them at the one yard line. And you mentioned this 72 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,560 Speaker 2: is where the Giants offense takes over for the very 73 00:03:12,560 --> 00:03:14,880 Speaker 2: first time in the game. But defense had a lot 74 00:03:14,880 --> 00:03:17,639 Speaker 2: of strong moments in this game today. Of course, Cordell 75 00:03:17,680 --> 00:03:20,639 Speaker 2: Flott had his first career interception late in the first quarter, 76 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:23,639 Speaker 2: returned it all the way back to the twelve, putting 77 00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:26,320 Speaker 2: the Giants twelve yards away from a touchdown. They weren't 78 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:29,320 Speaker 2: able to convert that. They go forward on fourth and two, 79 00:03:30,639 --> 00:03:33,280 Speaker 2: turn it over on downs, walk away without points there. 80 00:03:33,440 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 2: You know, some people who are saying, oh, well, they 81 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:36,880 Speaker 2: should have just kicked the field goal taken the point. 82 00:03:36,960 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 2: Some people saying, oh, well, you know it's good to 83 00:03:38,960 --> 00:03:40,840 Speaker 2: see that. You know, you put some trust in your 84 00:03:40,840 --> 00:03:43,400 Speaker 2: players to go for it in that field position at 85 00:03:43,400 --> 00:03:45,120 Speaker 2: that point in the game when you're down seven to 86 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:47,560 Speaker 2: nothing too the Dallas Cowboys on the road. You know 87 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:49,320 Speaker 2: what goes into that decision. 88 00:03:49,680 --> 00:03:51,360 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think that was probably a tough decision to 89 00:03:51,360 --> 00:03:53,760 Speaker 3: make for Brian Dabel because you do want points, you 90 00:03:53,800 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 3: do want to kind of get some momentum. 91 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,000 Speaker 4: But I think you also know, look, if. 92 00:03:57,840 --> 00:04:00,200 Speaker 3: We get down here and it's fourth and two, this 93 00:04:00,320 --> 00:04:02,040 Speaker 3: close to the end zone, we've got to find a 94 00:04:02,080 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 3: way to try to get a touchdown. So I was 95 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,640 Speaker 3: okay with going forward on fourth and two. 96 00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:06,720 Speaker 4: I didn't love the play call. 97 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:08,360 Speaker 3: I kind of wish it would have been a little 98 00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,080 Speaker 3: more creative and there would have been some more elements 99 00:04:10,160 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 3: or some other layers so it wasn't just a flat handoff. 100 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:16,320 Speaker 3: You know, Dallas has done a good job of getting 101 00:04:16,320 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 3: penetration in the run game in the past, so that's 102 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 3: a tough. 103 00:04:19,279 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 4: Area to run the football in. 104 00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:23,559 Speaker 3: But I liked that on the road to your point 105 00:04:23,600 --> 00:04:25,320 Speaker 3: that you know Dallas is going to score a lot 106 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:27,760 Speaker 3: of points, like you're not going to beat Dallas by 107 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:28,599 Speaker 3: kicking field goals. 108 00:04:28,640 --> 00:04:31,200 Speaker 4: So I think that went into play. I also feel like. 109 00:04:31,200 --> 00:04:32,960 Speaker 3: There might have been a little bit of Brian Dables 110 00:04:33,000 --> 00:04:36,200 Speaker 3: saying I've been here before. In Week one at Medlife Stadium, 111 00:04:36,200 --> 00:04:39,000 Speaker 3: the Giants got stuffed, went for a field goal. It 112 00:04:39,040 --> 00:04:41,040 Speaker 3: got blocked and went the other way for a touchdown. 113 00:04:41,120 --> 00:04:43,679 Speaker 3: It was a disaster. Andrew Thomas got hurt on that play, 114 00:04:43,720 --> 00:04:46,200 Speaker 3: so I don't know if that played into it. I 115 00:04:46,240 --> 00:04:47,600 Speaker 3: think it was more that like, look, we got to 116 00:04:47,640 --> 00:04:49,200 Speaker 3: go gas pedal here. We can't just sell o for 117 00:04:49,240 --> 00:04:51,000 Speaker 3: field goals. If we're going to stay in this game 118 00:04:51,040 --> 00:04:52,200 Speaker 3: and have a chance to win it, we've got to 119 00:04:52,200 --> 00:04:53,159 Speaker 3: come away with touchdowns. 120 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:56,240 Speaker 5: You're ready for a change. Pay Day comes early with citizens, 121 00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 5: So go to that retreat. Knew you move to the country. 122 00:05:00,360 --> 00:05:03,800 Speaker 5: Now you're raising goats and launching a lifestyle brand. Are 123 00:05:03,880 --> 00:05:05,440 Speaker 5: you ready for all that life breaks? 124 00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:08,400 Speaker 3: Yeah? 125 00:05:08,400 --> 00:05:10,160 Speaker 2: And as a coach, Brian Dable has never been shy 126 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,080 Speaker 2: in saying I believe in the players, the players on 127 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,679 Speaker 2: the field and want to put them in a position 128 00:05:13,800 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 2: to go for it. 129 00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:16,840 Speaker 3: And I think that you feel that as a player, like, hey, look, 130 00:05:16,880 --> 00:05:18,240 Speaker 3: our coach is going to give us a chance. Like 131 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:19,960 Speaker 3: we're always out there saying, hey, let's go for it. 132 00:05:20,000 --> 00:05:22,039 Speaker 3: You know, usually it's the coach that's got to ring 133 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:23,799 Speaker 3: you back and say no, I'm going to take the points. 134 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,760 Speaker 3: The right move is taking the points. So when your 135 00:05:25,800 --> 00:05:28,039 Speaker 3: coach believes in you, that Hey, on fourth and two, 136 00:05:28,279 --> 00:05:29,720 Speaker 3: I'm going to hand them all off and give you 137 00:05:29,720 --> 00:05:32,480 Speaker 3: an opportunity to get it. You certainly appreciate it, and 138 00:05:32,560 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 3: you'd like to come through so that he lets you 139 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:35,279 Speaker 3: do it again. 140 00:05:35,480 --> 00:05:35,720 Speaker 4: Yeah. 141 00:05:35,760 --> 00:05:38,240 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And you know, unfortunately for the Giants they didn't 142 00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: get points there. They were down seven to nothing at 143 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:43,360 Speaker 2: the time. Dallas kind of turns around, scores a touchdown 144 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:45,000 Speaker 2: and a couple more. They go into the half up 145 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 2: twenty eight to nothing, and people are thinking, oh, no, 146 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:48,839 Speaker 2: is this going to be a repeat of what we 147 00:05:48,880 --> 00:05:51,839 Speaker 2: saw in week one. Fortunately for the Giants, Tommy DeVito 148 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,640 Speaker 2: leads this team down the field in the third quarter, 149 00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:56,719 Speaker 2: gets a touchdown pastor Lawrence Cager gets them on the board. 150 00:05:57,360 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 2: They were able to get some points on the board 151 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,200 Speaker 2: in the second half, but it was like Dallas was 152 00:06:01,240 --> 00:06:03,640 Speaker 2: really airing it out today too. We saw Dak Prescott 153 00:06:03,720 --> 00:06:06,480 Speaker 2: throwing for four hundred and four yards and four touchdowns, 154 00:06:06,520 --> 00:06:10,479 Speaker 2: adding another rushing touchdown as well. Dallas was not easing 155 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:13,280 Speaker 2: off and there was no mercy rule by these cowboys today. 156 00:06:13,320 --> 00:06:13,400 Speaker 1: No. 157 00:06:13,440 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 3: It almost kind of felt like the college game a 158 00:06:15,839 --> 00:06:17,680 Speaker 3: little bit, where you can't just win, You've got to 159 00:06:17,720 --> 00:06:21,040 Speaker 3: win convincingly, and it almost seemed like they were going 160 00:06:21,040 --> 00:06:24,279 Speaker 3: for the fifty burger because even when they pulled Dak out, 161 00:06:24,640 --> 00:06:26,360 Speaker 3: like Ceedee Lamb was still in there for another series 162 00:06:26,400 --> 00:06:28,599 Speaker 3: and Cooper Rush was still airing it out, Like you know, 163 00:06:28,600 --> 00:06:31,159 Speaker 3: I kept saying, I can't believe they're still throwing. The 164 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:32,560 Speaker 3: game was well in hand, and you would think that 165 00:06:32,600 --> 00:06:34,520 Speaker 3: they would just kind of run the ball and try 166 00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 3: to grind the clock out. But you know, I think 167 00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:39,920 Speaker 3: the other thing too, is like, look, that's they're trying 168 00:06:39,920 --> 00:06:41,840 Speaker 3: to get better as a team too, and you know 169 00:06:42,520 --> 00:06:45,480 Speaker 3: at that point it's say, let's give Cooper Rush some opportunities, 170 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,719 Speaker 3: and you know, they've got a lot of good weapons. 171 00:06:47,720 --> 00:06:49,720 Speaker 3: The Giants were banged up coming into the game of 172 00:06:49,760 --> 00:06:52,920 Speaker 3: Dory Jackson was out with a concussion and then Tay 173 00:06:52,960 --> 00:06:54,160 Speaker 3: Banks goes Down. 174 00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,960 Speaker 4: Was down, Thabodeau was down. 175 00:06:57,760 --> 00:06:58,880 Speaker 2: So Jalen Hyatt. 176 00:06:58,880 --> 00:07:00,880 Speaker 4: They were a little bank up defensively. 177 00:07:00,960 --> 00:07:05,200 Speaker 3: So I think, you know, whenever it's NFL team's kind 178 00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:07,240 Speaker 3: of running up the score, as people might say, it's 179 00:07:07,320 --> 00:07:09,239 Speaker 3: you know, look it's your job to stop them, right, 180 00:07:09,560 --> 00:07:12,080 Speaker 3: But this Cowboys offense is potent. They've got some stud 181 00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:14,400 Speaker 3: receivers as we found out, not just in Ceedee Lamb, 182 00:07:14,440 --> 00:07:17,520 Speaker 3: but Brandon Cooks is you know, he's had a thousand 183 00:07:17,600 --> 00:07:20,160 Speaker 3: yard receiving seasons almost every single year and he's been 184 00:07:20,200 --> 00:07:22,280 Speaker 3: on five teams in the last five years, I think, 185 00:07:22,320 --> 00:07:26,560 Speaker 3: so he's definitely a high caliber receiver. And you know 186 00:07:26,600 --> 00:07:29,640 Speaker 3: this offense when Dak is hot, when he's on fire, 187 00:07:29,640 --> 00:07:31,280 Speaker 3: they're a tough offense to get off the field. 188 00:07:31,400 --> 00:07:31,679 Speaker 4: Yeah. 189 00:07:31,720 --> 00:07:33,480 Speaker 2: Absolutely, And I mean the fact that you know, four 190 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,960 Speaker 2: hundred four yards passing for Dak Prescott, that's his tenth 191 00:07:35,960 --> 00:07:38,760 Speaker 2: career game of four hundred or more yards passing and 192 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:42,680 Speaker 2: for context to all other Dallas Cowboys quarterbacks combined have 193 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:44,240 Speaker 2: only nine such games. 194 00:07:44,400 --> 00:07:45,240 Speaker 4: So that's impressive. 195 00:07:45,360 --> 00:07:47,760 Speaker 2: How impressive he has been for this team. And you 196 00:07:47,760 --> 00:07:48,280 Speaker 2: know doing it. 197 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:49,560 Speaker 4: Again, don't get pressure on him. 198 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 3: Yeah, he's a different quarterback like Dak. If you can 199 00:07:52,280 --> 00:07:54,000 Speaker 3: get to him, if you can rattle him, he will 200 00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 3: throw the ball away. And he threw two picks in 201 00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 3: this game, and yet the Giants did not have a 202 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:01,920 Speaker 3: single sack. So that's certainly something that Giants need to 203 00:08:01,920 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 3: get better at. They need to get more pressure from 204 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,280 Speaker 3: the front foor. It can't always come from a blitz 205 00:08:06,280 --> 00:08:08,520 Speaker 3: because that makes you susceptible to a big plays in 206 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:09,960 Speaker 3: the passing game when you go man. 207 00:08:09,840 --> 00:08:11,560 Speaker 2: Absolutely, and you know, going into this game too, I 208 00:08:11,560 --> 00:08:13,320 Speaker 2: think we talked about this earlier in the week, the 209 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:16,440 Speaker 2: fact that the Giants offense really should lean on the 210 00:08:16,520 --> 00:08:18,360 Speaker 2: run game. You saw a safe thud of Barkley thirteen 211 00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:21,040 Speaker 2: carries for sixty six yards, averaging five point one to carry, 212 00:08:21,040 --> 00:08:23,360 Speaker 2: which is productive. He had a twenty one yard run long. 213 00:08:24,800 --> 00:08:26,800 Speaker 2: Dallas hasn't given up one hundred yards rushing into a 214 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:31,239 Speaker 2: player all season. But did you you know, Saquon running 215 00:08:31,280 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 2: the ball to an extent, but you know, do you 216 00:08:33,000 --> 00:08:34,319 Speaker 2: want to see more from Saquon? 217 00:08:35,040 --> 00:08:39,200 Speaker 3: I feel like, especially given this situation with Tommy DeVito 218 00:08:39,280 --> 00:08:41,520 Speaker 3: and he's making his first start and knowing how good 219 00:08:41,600 --> 00:08:45,439 Speaker 3: Dallas is at getting after the quarterback, I definitely would 220 00:08:45,480 --> 00:08:47,000 Speaker 3: have liked to have seen him get more carries. But 221 00:08:47,040 --> 00:08:50,199 Speaker 3: the problem is they didn't convert a single third down 222 00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:52,840 Speaker 3: the entire game. So you want to run the football 223 00:08:52,840 --> 00:08:54,960 Speaker 3: and you want to stay consistent with the run. But 224 00:08:55,360 --> 00:08:57,080 Speaker 3: if you're not converting on third down and you're not 225 00:08:57,120 --> 00:08:58,960 Speaker 3: staying on the field, you're not getting drives, you're not 226 00:08:59,000 --> 00:09:02,600 Speaker 3: going to get those reps. I think Saquon, look, he played, 227 00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:05,720 Speaker 3: he's been playing hard. He's been running really well. When 228 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:08,120 Speaker 3: Andrew Thomas was in there, and we saw this last 229 00:09:08,120 --> 00:09:10,680 Speaker 3: week against the Raiders, the run game was working like 230 00:09:10,679 --> 00:09:13,040 Speaker 3: they were finding some holes and there were some lanes. 231 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:15,600 Speaker 3: There was a couple of big players where Saquon like 232 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,160 Speaker 3: he was one tackle away from breaking a big one. 233 00:09:18,559 --> 00:09:21,079 Speaker 3: He's the best player. He can't touch the ball enough, 234 00:09:21,200 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 3: and I think they're trying to continue to find ways 235 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,880 Speaker 3: to get on the ball. We saw him lineup in wildcat. 236 00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:28,640 Speaker 3: You know they flanked Tommy DeVito out as a receiver. 237 00:09:29,559 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 3: I think he wishes he would have kept kept the ball. 238 00:09:32,160 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 3: On one, he handed the ball off and ended I'm 239 00:09:33,760 --> 00:09:35,719 Speaker 3: not going anywhere. If he'd kept it, he would have 240 00:09:35,760 --> 00:09:38,760 Speaker 3: had a big run. But Saquan's your best player. If 241 00:09:38,800 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 3: he doesn't touch the ball twenty five times, then something's wrong. 242 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:45,400 Speaker 5: You loved turf, You're good at it, so you start 243 00:09:45,440 --> 00:09:49,920 Speaker 5: a turf business, grows, your savings, grow, become the most 244 00:09:49,960 --> 00:09:53,680 Speaker 5: celebrated name in turf. Are you ready for all that 245 00:09:53,760 --> 00:09:55,280 Speaker 5: life brings? 246 00:09:56,520 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 2: Absolutely? And I mean you mentioned third down. The Giants 247 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:00,560 Speaker 2: zero for twelve on third down on the day. That's 248 00:10:00,600 --> 00:10:02,640 Speaker 2: just not a rest going to win for success, and 249 00:10:02,760 --> 00:10:05,520 Speaker 2: especially when you're on the road, which the Giants will 250 00:10:05,559 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 2: be again next week. Third straight road game, another division 251 00:10:08,640 --> 00:10:12,160 Speaker 2: opponent heading to Washington to face the Commanders one o'clock 252 00:10:12,200 --> 00:10:16,240 Speaker 2: game at Washington next week. Commander's coming off a tough one, 253 00:10:16,240 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 2: a barn burner at Seattle, so they'll be taking that 254 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,400 Speaker 2: cross country flight back after losing a close game. Sean, 255 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 2: when you're coming off a game like that, when you're 256 00:10:23,400 --> 00:10:25,439 Speaker 2: facing a team that's coming off a game like that, 257 00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:28,160 Speaker 2: put it into context what the Commanders must be feeling 258 00:10:28,240 --> 00:10:28,600 Speaker 2: right now. 259 00:10:28,920 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 3: Well, I'm sure they're they're feeling like they had let 260 00:10:31,040 --> 00:10:34,400 Speaker 3: once slip away. You know, they had Seattle against the 261 00:10:34,480 --> 00:10:36,160 Speaker 3: Ropes and they had a chance to go for two 262 00:10:36,200 --> 00:10:38,160 Speaker 3: at the end of the game. You know, Sam Howell 263 00:10:38,200 --> 00:10:42,280 Speaker 3: has been doing a great job throwing the football, and 264 00:10:42,360 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 3: when they give him time, when they protect him, you 265 00:10:44,760 --> 00:10:45,640 Speaker 3: know he can light it up. 266 00:10:45,679 --> 00:10:49,040 Speaker 4: And they've got some good receivers Kerry Terry Johan Dotson. 267 00:10:49,679 --> 00:10:51,400 Speaker 3: You know, they've got some good running backs too, and 268 00:10:51,400 --> 00:10:55,360 Speaker 3: Brian Robinson and Antonio Gibson. So I think when you 269 00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,440 Speaker 3: look at their offense, they can move the change, they 270 00:10:57,440 --> 00:10:59,120 Speaker 3: get score points. I mean, they put up twenty nine 271 00:10:59,120 --> 00:11:02,720 Speaker 3: points at Seattle's. That's not an easy place to play. 272 00:11:03,640 --> 00:11:05,840 Speaker 3: So it's going to be a tall task, I know, 273 00:11:06,080 --> 00:11:08,720 Speaker 3: flying to Seattle and then playing that game, coming back late, 274 00:11:09,200 --> 00:11:10,599 Speaker 3: you know, it's gonna be a little bit of a 275 00:11:11,880 --> 00:11:15,800 Speaker 3: quick turnaround for them. But I think when you look 276 00:11:15,840 --> 00:11:19,480 Speaker 3: at Washington like they're a tough team offensively and defensively. 277 00:11:20,160 --> 00:11:22,800 Speaker 3: You know, no Montes Sweat, no Chase Young, but they 278 00:11:22,840 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 3: still have Deron Payne and Jonathan Allen inside, so this 279 00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:28,320 Speaker 3: is still a good defense. They can still get out 280 00:11:28,320 --> 00:11:31,959 Speaker 3: to the quarterback. But for the Giants offense, they've always 281 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:33,920 Speaker 3: kind of had I feel like they've. 282 00:11:33,760 --> 00:11:36,200 Speaker 4: Kind of had Washington's number. They beat him earlier this year. 283 00:11:36,440 --> 00:11:40,240 Speaker 3: Saquon Barkley's always had big games against Washington. We were 284 00:11:40,240 --> 00:11:42,920 Speaker 3: just talking about how many touches can he get? You know, 285 00:11:42,960 --> 00:11:44,800 Speaker 3: I think this should be a big game for Saquon 286 00:11:44,880 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 3: Barkley and hopefully Jalen Hyatt's okay and they can get 287 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,120 Speaker 3: some big plays out of him this week. 288 00:11:49,240 --> 00:11:51,559 Speaker 2: Yeah, I know you mentioned Chase Young and Montesweat. Both 289 00:11:51,559 --> 00:11:53,360 Speaker 2: of them dealt at the trade deadline. That is why 290 00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,360 Speaker 2: they are no longer there in Washington. When these two 291 00:11:56,400 --> 00:11:58,480 Speaker 2: teams just played each other in Week seven, Giants came 292 00:11:58,520 --> 00:12:00,720 Speaker 2: away with fourteen to seven win. You mentioned too, the 293 00:12:00,720 --> 00:12:03,120 Speaker 2: way that they match up kind of historically matchup, Well, 294 00:12:03,160 --> 00:12:05,160 Speaker 2: is there something to be said because you know, oftentimes 295 00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:07,080 Speaker 2: the players on the field for each of these matchups 296 00:12:07,080 --> 00:12:09,560 Speaker 2: can be a bit different, but when they historically tilt 297 00:12:09,600 --> 00:12:11,880 Speaker 2: in the giants favor, you kind of feel that going 298 00:12:11,880 --> 00:12:14,400 Speaker 2: into it, especially coming off you know, just a few 299 00:12:14,440 --> 00:12:17,480 Speaker 2: weeks ago, the Giants got a win at home against Washington. 300 00:12:17,520 --> 00:12:19,240 Speaker 2: We're able to get a lot of pressure on Sam 301 00:12:19,280 --> 00:12:21,559 Speaker 2: howla guy who's been sacked a lot this season. Yeah, 302 00:12:22,160 --> 00:12:24,800 Speaker 2: and that was, you know, great in inspiring performance to 303 00:12:24,800 --> 00:12:25,839 Speaker 2: the Giants defense as well. 304 00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:28,720 Speaker 3: Yeah, I think there's a lot of good confident builders 305 00:12:29,080 --> 00:12:31,840 Speaker 3: in this matchup, not just the history with the Washington Commanders, 306 00:12:31,840 --> 00:12:33,240 Speaker 3: but the fact that we just played him a couple 307 00:12:33,240 --> 00:12:35,800 Speaker 3: of weeks ago, that they're still fresh on the brain, 308 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,520 Speaker 3: Like the game plan is still fresh offensively and defensively, 309 00:12:39,720 --> 00:12:42,280 Speaker 3: you kind of know what to expect. They're not going 310 00:12:42,360 --> 00:12:45,240 Speaker 3: to change in three or four weeks. So a lot 311 00:12:45,320 --> 00:12:47,160 Speaker 3: of that self scout and the scout of the other 312 00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:50,199 Speaker 3: team is very consistent, so that should help. Course, dex 313 00:12:50,280 --> 00:12:53,760 Speaker 3: Or Lawrence had a monster game against Washington, and I 314 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:57,840 Speaker 3: expected to be the same. Nick Gates, the center for Washington, 315 00:12:58,640 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 3: was a teammate of his, and of course they know 316 00:13:00,640 --> 00:13:03,280 Speaker 3: each other really well. But the one difference, obviously with 317 00:13:03,360 --> 00:13:05,680 Speaker 3: Montes Sweat and Chase Young not being there, Leonard Williams 318 00:13:05,720 --> 00:13:07,760 Speaker 3: also is not there. Yeah, he had a big game 319 00:13:07,800 --> 00:13:10,680 Speaker 3: against them as well.
