I'm John Schmulk, of course, 11 00:00:32,240 --> 00:00:34,080 Speaker 1: are joined as always by the voice of the Giants, Bob. 12 00:00:34,080 --> 00:00:37,360 Speaker 1: Papa is presented by Bob's Discount Furniture, the official furniture 13 00:00:37,360 --> 00:00:40,760 Speaker 1: store and mattress partner of the New York Giants. Today, Bob, 14 00:00:40,800 --> 00:00:42,839 Speaker 1: the Giants are getting ready to take on the Ten 15 00:00:42,880 --> 00:00:45,760 Speaker 1: Bay Buccaneers on Monday Night Football. And these two teams 16 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,120 Speaker 1: have had some really memorable games over the last twenty years, 17 00:00:48,120 --> 00:00:51,280 Speaker 1: and we're gonna start with their lone playoff matchup following 18 00:00:51,280 --> 00:00:54,000 Speaker 1: the two thousand seven season. In January of two thousand 19 00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:57,320 Speaker 1: and eight, John, I mean it's uh you know, everybody 20 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,800 Speaker 1: remembers the Giants playing the Patriots, trying to snapped the 21 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:05,720 Speaker 1: Patriots unbeaten season, losing the game in Giants Stadium. I 22 00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: think what people forget is that our buddy Shawn O'Hara 23 00:01:09,000 --> 00:01:12,120 Speaker 1: got hurt in that game and Gray Rugamer had to 24 00:01:12,200 --> 00:01:17,000 Speaker 1: start at center. Giants first two offensive possessions, three and 25 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:22,280 Speaker 1: out in the punt, third possession, one first down and 26 00:01:22,400 --> 00:01:25,160 Speaker 1: a punt um. It wasn't looking very good for the 27 00:01:25,200 --> 00:01:27,360 Speaker 1: Giants the way this game started. I mean, I think 28 00:01:27,360 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 1: in the first quarter they had like no yards of offense. 29 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:34,840 Speaker 1: It was bad. Um. Remember Monty Tumor getting mad in 30 00:01:34,880 --> 00:01:37,959 Speaker 1: the huddle, like trying to get guys fired up. So 31 00:01:38,200 --> 00:01:41,880 Speaker 1: it's seven nothing in favor of the Buccaneers. Giants get 32 00:01:41,880 --> 00:01:44,160 Speaker 1: a stop on defense and they go on this really 33 00:01:44,280 --> 00:01:49,000 Speaker 1: nice drive um because of a poor punt by the 34 00:01:49,040 --> 00:01:51,360 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay Bucks. So they start at the forty seven. 35 00:01:52,480 --> 00:01:57,320 Speaker 1: Eli hits Buris He hits uh Tumor for seventeen. Next 36 00:01:57,320 --> 00:01:59,280 Speaker 1: thing you know, the Giants have it first in goal 37 00:01:59,280 --> 00:02:01,680 Speaker 1: at the five hardline. Tumor had a big catch on 38 00:02:01,720 --> 00:02:04,320 Speaker 1: a third and nine at the eighteen and that sets 39 00:02:04,360 --> 00:02:06,760 Speaker 1: up the first score. Of the game. First and goal 40 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: after six Giants trail seven nothing. Jacobs in an offset, 41 00:02:13,880 --> 00:02:16,880 Speaker 1: I right manning back, the throw looks right, throws it for. 42 00:02:17,040 --> 00:02:19,200 Speaker 1: Jacobs makes the catch at the five into the ends 43 00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,160 Speaker 1: open a touchdown. So I got the Giants on the board. 44 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:24,600 Speaker 1: Crowds going crazy. Yeah, it's in Tampa, but there's a 45 00:02:24,600 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: ton of Giants fans there. In fact, it felt like 46 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:29,200 Speaker 1: a home game, Bob, I remember, like it was yesterday. Yeah, 47 00:02:29,240 --> 00:02:31,360 Speaker 1: there was some fear that the game could get like 48 00:02:31,440 --> 00:02:34,519 Speaker 1: blacked out in Tampa or something. Um, Giants fans filled 49 00:02:34,520 --> 00:02:38,600 Speaker 1: the building up. So at seven seven the game is stabilized. 50 00:02:39,360 --> 00:02:42,800 Speaker 1: After a rough start, Bucks get the ball back and 51 00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:46,320 Speaker 1: on a second and ten the Giants what do they do? 52 00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:48,920 Speaker 1: They get after the quarterback and the Hall of Famer 53 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 1: gets in the act Garcia, the play clock of fifteen 54 00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 1: gets set over seven chand of defense here in Tampa, 55 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,560 Speaker 1: gar see it back under pressure, sacked by Michael stray 56 00:02:59,600 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: Hand at the fifteen yard long right right there, Bob, 57 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,600 Speaker 1: chance of defense in the visiting stadium. Yeah, and uh 58 00:03:05,639 --> 00:03:07,679 Speaker 1: that set up a third and long. They punted the 59 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,279 Speaker 1: ball away. Giants had momentum. They start with a Bradshaw 60 00:03:11,400 --> 00:03:15,880 Speaker 1: run for eight yards. Bursts makes a catch for eleven. 61 00:03:16,560 --> 00:03:19,280 Speaker 1: Burst makes a catch for nine. They got the ball 62 00:03:19,320 --> 00:03:22,120 Speaker 1: in Tampa territory, trying to take their first lead and 63 00:03:22,200 --> 00:03:25,920 Speaker 1: again facing a third down. Uh, Eli, Manning goes to 64 00:03:26,400 --> 00:03:28,919 Speaker 1: somebody who would play a big role for this Giants 65 00:03:28,960 --> 00:03:32,000 Speaker 1: team in the postseason and the Super Bowl, and he 66 00:03:32,080 --> 00:03:34,720 Speaker 1: was a rookie. Giants don't break the huddle until tend 67 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 1: on the play clock. They set the all fallax line 68 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:40,880 Speaker 1: to the right play clock at three third and two. 69 00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:44,520 Speaker 1: Manning over center, takes the snap back to throw looks 70 00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:47,360 Speaker 1: like pumps over the middle, deplets it to the twenty 71 00:03:47,400 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: four yard line that Steve spent. The rookie had knocked 72 00:03:49,760 --> 00:03:51,840 Speaker 1: out the six teams. Remember, Bob, he had missed most 73 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:53,520 Speaker 1: of his rookie season with an injury. He had came 74 00:03:53,560 --> 00:03:56,000 Speaker 1: back late in the year and made a big impact. Yeah, 75 00:03:56,000 --> 00:03:58,480 Speaker 1: he certainly did. Uh. He was a big player for 76 00:03:58,480 --> 00:04:02,760 Speaker 1: the Giants down stretching, obviously a key player in the postseason. 77 00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:07,119 Speaker 1: So two plays later, Brandon Jacobs had one receiving Now 78 00:04:07,120 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: he does won the old fashioned seventh seven ball game. 79 00:04:09,880 --> 00:04:14,840 Speaker 1: Here in the second to go, Manning handoff left for 80 00:04:15,000 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: Jacobs runs left inside the fight of the goal on touchdown, 81 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: Brandon Jacobs off the left side, his second touchdown of 82 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: the ball game and after an awful start, the Giants 83 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 1: had the lead here in the second so Jacobs has 84 00:04:29,720 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. Bucks get the ball back. They got it 85 00:04:32,480 --> 00:04:35,479 Speaker 1: to midfield. They had a first and ten, but the 86 00:04:35,520 --> 00:04:38,320 Speaker 1: Giants are able to stiff and defensively force a punt. 87 00:04:39,120 --> 00:04:43,040 Speaker 1: Didn't have great field position. Uh you know, half ends. 88 00:04:43,040 --> 00:04:46,120 Speaker 1: But the Giants get the ball to start the third. Uh. 89 00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:49,040 Speaker 1: They had the ball deep in Buck's territory. They had 90 00:04:49,040 --> 00:04:50,919 Speaker 1: a first and goal at the seven yard line, but 91 00:04:50,920 --> 00:04:53,240 Speaker 1: they got called for a false start to delay a game. 92 00:04:53,800 --> 00:04:56,159 Speaker 1: Have to settle for a field goal from Lawrence times. 93 00:04:56,160 --> 00:04:59,680 Speaker 1: But it's seventeen seven Giants. Uh So now the Bucks 94 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,520 Speaker 1: are out in more pass mode with Jeff Garcia. Remember 95 00:05:02,520 --> 00:05:05,680 Speaker 1: the Bucks hosted the playoff game because they were the 96 00:05:05,720 --> 00:05:09,640 Speaker 1: division winners that year. And the Giants defense once again 97 00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: comes up big. On the Buck's first possession of the 98 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,839 Speaker 1: second half, Galloway goes wide left to a strong formation 99 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 1: to the right. Now they sent Graham wide to the right. 100 00:05:19,839 --> 00:05:26,240 Speaker 1: Second at seven, Garcia takes the snap. Rush your up 101 00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:28,839 Speaker 1: the middle. E slides left, throws at left for Galloway 102 00:05:29,200 --> 00:05:32,720 Speaker 1: row intercepted by Corey Webster. You know, Babo jumps out 103 00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:35,000 Speaker 1: to me. All these names were talking about, right, Brandon 104 00:05:35,120 --> 00:05:37,360 Speaker 1: Jacob's fourth round pick. Right, he was four or five 105 00:05:37,440 --> 00:05:39,559 Speaker 1: Brandon and he was a fourth round pick. Right, Steve 106 00:05:39,600 --> 00:05:42,960 Speaker 1: Smith's second round pick, Michael Strayan's second round pick, Corey 107 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:46,440 Speaker 1: Webster second round pick. All these draft picks made over 108 00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:48,640 Speaker 1: the past ten years, just paying dividends in the biggest, 109 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:51,360 Speaker 1: biggest games. Yeah, and it was very reminiscent of the 110 00:05:51,360 --> 00:05:53,560 Speaker 1: Giants of the eighties. Um, when you take a look 111 00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:56,160 Speaker 1: at what George Young did in building that team up 112 00:05:57,040 --> 00:06:02,120 Speaker 1: and having really very good drafts, and what Ernie of 113 00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:04,760 Speaker 1: Corsi did leading up to the OH seven season. Because 114 00:06:04,800 --> 00:06:07,520 Speaker 1: remember Jerry Reese is the general manager now at this point. 115 00:06:08,400 --> 00:06:12,840 Speaker 1: But the draft picks in the second, third, fourth, fifth round, 116 00:06:12,920 --> 00:06:16,200 Speaker 1: David dealt them, hitting them, And that's exactly what the 117 00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:19,279 Speaker 1: Giants did in the eighties in winning the two Super Bowls. 118 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:24,320 Speaker 1: So the Bucks threatened big interception by Sea Web Giants 119 00:06:24,320 --> 00:06:26,640 Speaker 1: take over at their own twenty. They actually go backwards. 120 00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:30,279 Speaker 1: They have to punt. Bucks get uh one first down, 121 00:06:30,320 --> 00:06:34,040 Speaker 1: they have to punt. We're trading punts here, um, you know. 122 00:06:34,640 --> 00:06:36,640 Speaker 1: But now we move into the fourth quarter. And by 123 00:06:36,680 --> 00:06:38,599 Speaker 1: the way, Tom coffind only just said, puns are okay 124 00:06:39,360 --> 00:06:42,040 Speaker 1: the defense, puns are fine. Third quarter ends. There was 125 00:06:42,080 --> 00:06:44,600 Speaker 1: a big play on the third quarter final seconds of 126 00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: the quarter. Giants have third and seven at thrown eleven 127 00:06:47,600 --> 00:06:50,400 Speaker 1: yard line and Eli hits a monti tumor on an 128 00:06:50,400 --> 00:06:53,520 Speaker 1: eleven yard pass play to keep the drive alive. You know, 129 00:06:53,600 --> 00:06:56,760 Speaker 1: Bradshaw goes for seven. Now the Giants are grinding and out, grind, 130 00:06:56,839 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: grinding and out. Um. They didn't face another the third 131 00:07:00,600 --> 00:07:03,720 Speaker 1: down on this drive. They had first and goal at 132 00:07:03,760 --> 00:07:07,800 Speaker 1: the nine, Bradshaw for one, second and goal at the eight, 133 00:07:08,040 --> 00:07:11,880 Speaker 1: Bradshaw for four. And then it was third and goal 134 00:07:11,880 --> 00:07:14,520 Speaker 1: at the four and the Giants widen their lead. Third 135 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:19,880 Speaker 1: and goal at the four. Barris goes wide, lack tumor 136 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,400 Speaker 1: and Smith lined up in an eye to the right, 137 00:07:23,600 --> 00:07:26,840 Speaker 1: manning in the gun. Tumor and motion from the right, 138 00:07:27,640 --> 00:07:30,640 Speaker 1: manning back to throw pumps. Looks fires right for Timber 139 00:07:30,640 --> 00:07:33,600 Speaker 1: in the n cut down Giants no money. Tumor, who's 140 00:07:33,640 --> 00:07:36,240 Speaker 1: having a whale of the game, gets the touchdown for 141 00:07:36,320 --> 00:07:38,400 Speaker 1: the Big Blue where they do free to go and 142 00:07:38,440 --> 00:07:42,200 Speaker 1: they widen their lead. Yeah, it's down's twenty four to seven. 143 00:07:42,280 --> 00:07:46,280 Speaker 1: But remember Jeff Garcia and the Bucks could move the 144 00:07:46,320 --> 00:07:50,200 Speaker 1: ball and they go hurry up, shotgun the whole way. Uh, 145 00:07:50,280 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: and they get a pretty quick touchdown. Um, they only 146 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:56,000 Speaker 1: used four minutes and thirty eight seconds. Garcia throws a 147 00:07:56,040 --> 00:08:02,760 Speaker 1: touchdown pass, so it's game is still hanging in the balance. Giants, 148 00:08:03,280 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 1: you go three and out punt the football away, So 149 00:08:06,200 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: now the Bucks have it. After garcia seventeen yard pass 150 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:13,160 Speaker 1: play to Michael Pittman, they have at first and ten 151 00:08:13,240 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: at their own forty four. The two minute warning with 152 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:18,600 Speaker 1: the Giants holding the ten point lead, and the Giants 153 00:08:18,640 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 1: defense once again comes up big. They've got Spurlock as 154 00:08:22,040 --> 00:08:25,280 Speaker 1: the third receiver. He's in a slot right with Clayton 155 00:08:25,360 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: Hilliard split left. Garcia takes the snap's back to throw 156 00:08:30,840 --> 00:08:33,520 Speaker 1: pumps under press agains Titnessey throws the ball waffling up 157 00:08:33,520 --> 00:08:37,120 Speaker 1: in the air and it's intercepted on the sideline by mcquarters, 158 00:08:37,120 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: but he was out of bounds after he doing the play. 159 00:08:40,559 --> 00:08:44,680 Speaker 1: It is an interception. The defender had both beat inbound 160 00:08:44,760 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: and for the troll with the football will be New 161 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,360 Speaker 1: York's ball, first down on the eighteen yard line. And 162 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,080 Speaker 1: that was all she wrote. And you know it's a 163 00:08:52,120 --> 00:08:55,719 Speaker 1: little theme here, right, Corey Webster steps in front of Galloway. 164 00:08:56,240 --> 00:08:58,040 Speaker 1: He would do the same thing in Green Bay in 165 00:08:58,040 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 1: the NFC Championship game a few weeks later. Mcquarters kind 166 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,720 Speaker 1: of seals the game with an interception. He would do 167 00:09:04,760 --> 00:09:08,240 Speaker 1: it the following week against the Dallas Cowboys. So, uh, 168 00:09:08,280 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: Steve Smith with a big third down catch. You know, 169 00:09:11,640 --> 00:09:15,400 Speaker 1: the tells were starting the show as the Giants win 170 00:09:15,480 --> 00:09:18,480 Speaker 1: this playoff game to fourteen on the road without their 171 00:09:18,480 --> 00:09:21,520 Speaker 1: starting center. But you knew that the task was gonna 172 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,840 Speaker 1: be a little bit greater the following week going against 173 00:09:23,840 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: the number one seed, the Cowboys in Dallas. All right, Bob, 174 00:09:27,040 --> 00:09:29,360 Speaker 1: let's jump ahead now to the two thousand and twelve 175 00:09:29,440 --> 00:09:31,959 Speaker 1: game Giants and Bucks. Obviously, the Giants go on and 176 00:09:32,280 --> 00:09:35,280 Speaker 1: win Super Bowl forty two. So let's go to two 177 00:09:35,280 --> 00:09:38,040 Speaker 1: thousand and twelve year the Giants taken on Tampa Bay. 178 00:09:38,280 --> 00:09:41,560 Speaker 1: The Giants coming off their second Super Bowl championship in 179 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: this game, Yeah, and this was an early season game, 180 00:09:44,679 --> 00:09:47,920 Speaker 1: and uh, look The Giants were looking to get things 181 00:09:47,960 --> 00:09:51,840 Speaker 1: going early against the Buccaneers, and on the second play 182 00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:55,840 Speaker 1: of the game, after a Keen Knicks eight yard catch, 183 00:09:56,400 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: the Giants, uh, go oh up top and this would 184 00:10:00,080 --> 00:10:04,720 Speaker 1: be a theme in this game. Offset sideline Manning back 185 00:10:04,760 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 1: to throw on a second or two pumps deep down 186 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:09,960 Speaker 1: the white sideline for Mitch who makes the deeply patch. 187 00:10:10,200 --> 00:10:13,320 Speaker 1: I get to stack a little twenty five yard line. 188 00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,400 Speaker 1: It was a little under thrown, but nixt beat the 189 00:10:18,640 --> 00:10:21,920 Speaker 1: keep to leave for thirty nine yards. Yeah, and this 190 00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:25,000 Speaker 1: is a game in which you know, Eli Manning and 191 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 1: the passing game were unbelievable. Eli finished with five and 192 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:32,120 Speaker 1: ten yards. Nick's finished the game with one ninety nine. 193 00:10:32,280 --> 00:10:36,600 Speaker 1: Victor Cruz had one seventy nine. In this ballgame, the 194 00:10:36,679 --> 00:10:40,600 Speaker 1: Giants Will had to settle for three bucks got three back. 195 00:10:41,120 --> 00:10:44,760 Speaker 1: Giants went on a long twelve place sixty three yard drive, 196 00:10:44,840 --> 00:10:47,800 Speaker 1: but again, uh, they had first in goal at the 197 00:10:47,920 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: two and they try to pass to Will Beati. Believe 198 00:10:50,760 --> 00:10:53,920 Speaker 1: it or not, that didn't work. Um, and again they 199 00:10:53,920 --> 00:10:56,199 Speaker 1: had to settle. They had to settle for a field goal. 200 00:10:56,280 --> 00:10:59,840 Speaker 1: So it's like six to three after one quarter. Despite 201 00:10:59,840 --> 00:11:01,640 Speaker 1: the fact that these teams are going up and down 202 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,920 Speaker 1: the field. I do have the beat incomplete. Pass a 203 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:07,120 Speaker 1: Bob if you want to hear it in there one 204 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:11,280 Speaker 1: rat Shaw and Hynoski and and I sat Pascal and 205 00:11:11,400 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: motion to the right. Manning's gonna throw rolls right. Oh, 206 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:18,320 Speaker 1: he's got a man on the interment trap beat. He 207 00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,200 Speaker 1: had brat Shaw wide open on the right side. He 208 00:11:21,320 --> 00:11:24,880 Speaker 1: threw it to Bed instead. Probably would have liked to 209 00:11:24,920 --> 00:11:29,280 Speaker 1: have rethought that kind of sums up the way will beat. 210 00:11:29,320 --> 00:11:32,480 Speaker 1: His career with the Giants worked out too um Vincent 211 00:11:32,559 --> 00:11:35,640 Speaker 1: Jackson twenty nine yard touchdown, So now the Giants are losing. 212 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:40,480 Speaker 1: The Bucks widen their lead Doug Martin with an eight 213 00:11:40,559 --> 00:11:43,439 Speaker 1: yard touchdown run. So despite the fact that Giants are 214 00:11:43,440 --> 00:11:47,880 Speaker 1: moving the ball, they trail seventeen to six, So they 215 00:11:47,920 --> 00:11:49,800 Speaker 1: get the ball with six nineteen to go on a 216 00:11:49,840 --> 00:11:53,079 Speaker 1: half two minute warning comes. They've got a first intent 217 00:11:53,160 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: at the Bucks twenty three and uh Eli Manning works 218 00:11:56,520 --> 00:12:00,679 Speaker 1: a little magic first intent at the Bucks only three 219 00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: sciences apt three timeouts remaining. Barber showed the blitz rande 220 00:12:08,240 --> 00:12:12,160 Speaker 1: that is, and it takes the signals Bucks are off side. 221 00:12:12,200 --> 00:12:14,120 Speaker 1: Man it grows up right he's got next to tight 222 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:18,920 Speaker 1: to the part cuts down Giants, so stabilizes of the 223 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: game right seventeen thirteen time sits the extra point, Giant 224 00:12:22,840 --> 00:12:25,280 Speaker 1: d holds the Bucks to three and out. And it 225 00:12:25,400 --> 00:12:28,560 Speaker 1: was a short possession. They only used forty seconds. So 226 00:12:28,600 --> 00:12:30,920 Speaker 1: the Giants get the ball with fifty three seconds to go. 227 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:34,640 Speaker 1: You got Manning, you got cruise, You've got a keen knicks. Uh, 228 00:12:34,679 --> 00:12:37,160 Speaker 1: you got a vast array of talent and knicks for 229 00:12:37,240 --> 00:12:43,040 Speaker 1: seventeen cruise for eleven U cruise for thirteen more, twenty 230 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,880 Speaker 1: three seconds to go. In the half, Giants are trailing. 231 00:12:47,720 --> 00:12:49,920 Speaker 1: They have a third and two at the Bucks thirty nine. 232 00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: You're thinking, all right, worst case scenarios, we're gonna get 233 00:12:52,440 --> 00:12:54,280 Speaker 1: the first down and at least get a field well, 234 00:12:54,280 --> 00:12:58,640 Speaker 1: and then disaster strikes Anning out of a shotgun back 235 00:12:58,720 --> 00:13:02,040 Speaker 1: to throw. It's passed to the right intercept it picked 236 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,920 Speaker 1: off by right. He read the route and he's got 237 00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 1: the picked out right to the right sideline and he 238 00:13:07,280 --> 00:13:10,240 Speaker 1: could go. He's to the thirty, he's to the twenty 239 00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:13,400 Speaker 1: heat to the ten to the five touchdown Bucks. I 240 00:13:13,440 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 1: love that call about even you're surprisedly like, oh, no, 241 00:13:15,480 --> 00:13:18,360 Speaker 1: wait a second, there's Rube. He could go all the way. Yeah, 242 00:13:18,400 --> 00:13:20,600 Speaker 1: and he did. He did. He went all the way, 243 00:13:20,640 --> 00:13:22,840 Speaker 1: all right, And I was a little shocked by that. So, 244 00:13:23,480 --> 00:13:25,960 Speaker 1: you know, all of a sudden, the Giants in this 245 00:13:26,000 --> 00:13:29,600 Speaker 1: football game. You know, you look at the score and 246 00:13:29,640 --> 00:13:32,199 Speaker 1: you're sitting there and you're saying to yourself, man, they 247 00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,880 Speaker 1: had just stabilized the game. It looks like they're gonna get, 248 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:39,040 Speaker 1: you know, even closer. And instead, you know, they give 249 00:13:39,120 --> 00:13:41,160 Speaker 1: up the touchdown at the end of the first half 250 00:13:41,160 --> 00:13:46,480 Speaker 1: and it's Bucks going into the locker room. Bucks get 251 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:48,439 Speaker 1: the ball to start the third. They get three. So 252 00:13:48,600 --> 00:13:52,680 Speaker 1: now the Giants are down two touchdowns. Um. Giants go 253 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:56,559 Speaker 1: three and out. Starting to get a little bit dire here. Um, 254 00:13:56,600 --> 00:13:59,360 Speaker 1: But then a big play happens. The Bucks are driving again. 255 00:13:59,520 --> 00:14:02,360 Speaker 1: They have a third and one at midfield and the 256 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:05,320 Speaker 1: Giants defense comes up huge. The first third at one 257 00:14:05,880 --> 00:14:13,800 Speaker 1: Jackson wide. Last I sat and up Martin into the line, 258 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:18,240 Speaker 1: not getting there, stop Pierre Paul and Marcus to make 259 00:14:18,280 --> 00:14:23,000 Speaker 1: the tackle, loss of the yard or two. So Marcus 260 00:14:23,240 --> 00:14:24,560 Speaker 1: walking up the stairs just the other day, he's in 261 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:27,360 Speaker 1: the Giants personnel department. Yeah, he made a big play 262 00:14:27,400 --> 00:14:29,480 Speaker 1: on that one. So now the Giants go on this 263 00:14:29,680 --> 00:14:33,040 Speaker 1: long drive and they got a first and tent at 264 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,680 Speaker 1: the nineteen yard line, but you know they're not able 265 00:14:35,720 --> 00:14:37,960 Speaker 1: to do anything with it. They only get three times 266 00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:40,280 Speaker 1: with the field goal, so it's twenty seven and sixteen. 267 00:14:41,280 --> 00:14:45,760 Speaker 1: Bucks get the ball back. Corey Webster with a big 268 00:14:45,840 --> 00:14:49,240 Speaker 1: interception on the second play of that series. So with 269 00:14:49,360 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: twenty one seconds to go in the third quarter, the 270 00:14:51,760 --> 00:14:55,000 Speaker 1: Giants take over, uh, and they gotta they gotta get 271 00:14:55,040 --> 00:14:57,960 Speaker 1: moving here, and they've got to get something happening. It's 272 00:14:58,000 --> 00:15:00,960 Speaker 1: get something on the board. They do well, they do, 273 00:15:01,640 --> 00:15:04,680 Speaker 1: but not right away because they only got three out 274 00:15:04,680 --> 00:15:10,440 Speaker 1: of that drive. Bucks get the ball back up nineteen Giants, 275 00:15:10,560 --> 00:15:13,920 Speaker 1: UM force a punt and then the Giants starting their 276 00:15:13,920 --> 00:15:18,160 Speaker 1: own twelve yard line, um Andre Brown has an eight 277 00:15:18,240 --> 00:15:21,480 Speaker 1: yard run an incomplete pass, and then on a third 278 00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:24,320 Speaker 1: and two from the Giants twenty and there's only six 279 00:15:24,400 --> 00:15:26,560 Speaker 1: fifty nine to go in the game, here comes one 280 00:15:26,560 --> 00:15:30,200 Speaker 1: of those big plays, third and two, almost three, just 281 00:15:30,280 --> 00:15:34,840 Speaker 1: inside the Giants twenty man. He calls the signals and 282 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,560 Speaker 1: he's back to throw. He's under pressure and he's gonna 283 00:15:37,600 --> 00:15:39,320 Speaker 1: keep it down field. He's got cruise wide up and 284 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:41,160 Speaker 1: he takes the pens of the party, pays for the 285 00:15:41,200 --> 00:15:43,840 Speaker 1: thirty to the twenty to the ten to the five 286 00:15:43,960 --> 00:15:51,560 Speaker 1: touchdown Giants, and he does the salsa many the cruise 287 00:15:52,720 --> 00:15:57,600 Speaker 1: eighty yards and then the Giants go to two for 288 00:15:57,720 --> 00:16:00,440 Speaker 1: two to tie the game up. Man, he's gonna work 289 00:16:00,520 --> 00:16:04,400 Speaker 1: over center. He's got Barton split right. Man. It calls 290 00:16:04,440 --> 00:16:07,680 Speaker 1: the signals draw play for Brown to go on. It 291 00:16:07,760 --> 00:16:12,080 Speaker 1: is for two. So the Giants like that have tied 292 00:16:12,120 --> 00:16:16,320 Speaker 1: the game up. Three and out for the Bucks Giants. 293 00:16:16,640 --> 00:16:19,240 Speaker 1: A couple of nice plays right out of the gate, 294 00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: fourteen yards to Martellis Bennett, twenty yards to a Keen 295 00:16:23,280 --> 00:16:25,600 Speaker 1: Knicks and then first and ten at the Bucks. Thirty 296 00:16:25,680 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: three Giants are back in front. Manning's back pump, fake laugh, 297 00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,240 Speaker 1: looks right looking for Martellis Bennett, who makes the catch. 298 00:16:33,360 --> 00:16:36,640 Speaker 1: How does it kind of touchdown? Hey jumped over to 299 00:16:36,720 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: the French McDonald and Mark tell us credit, let's give 300 00:16:39,840 --> 00:16:42,840 Speaker 1: it the Giants the lead for three to go. I 301 00:16:42,960 --> 00:16:45,320 Speaker 1: was lo the bob laugh and they'd call and like 302 00:16:45,360 --> 00:16:47,160 Speaker 1: something happens that like you don't quite believe it. You 303 00:16:47,240 --> 00:16:49,360 Speaker 1: get that little laugh in there thinking I was thinking 304 00:16:49,400 --> 00:16:52,120 Speaker 1: of him singing Captain Crunch because you love Captain Crunch. 305 00:16:52,160 --> 00:16:54,840 Speaker 1: Remember that video. Yeah, I love Captain Crunch. I eat 306 00:16:54,880 --> 00:17:00,000 Speaker 1: it every day for lunch. So the Giants have the lead. Uh, 307 00:17:00,600 --> 00:17:05,040 Speaker 1: but the Bucks, you know, the Bucks come right back. 308 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:09,480 Speaker 1: Freeman Williams forty one yards. We're tied at thirty four. 309 00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:12,640 Speaker 1: There's under two minutes to go in the game. Giants 310 00:17:12,640 --> 00:17:16,600 Speaker 1: have a first and fifteen from their own thirty yard 311 00:17:16,760 --> 00:17:20,679 Speaker 1: nine yard line, and again another deep ball to go 312 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:23,240 Speaker 1: in the game. Man, it takes a low snap, has time, 313 00:17:23,520 --> 00:17:25,479 Speaker 1: throws it down the right side. Nicks is down at 314 00:17:25,520 --> 00:17:27,760 Speaker 1: the forty, Peace for the thirty, Peace for the twenty. 315 00:17:27,880 --> 00:17:33,359 Speaker 1: Peace tripped up inside the fifteen at the fourteen. That 316 00:17:33,480 --> 00:17:35,880 Speaker 1: capped off a hundred ninety nine yards for a Keen Knicks. 317 00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:38,000 Speaker 1: He went up getting hurt on that play, which kind 318 00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:41,320 Speaker 1: of altered his career. If you remember that, that was 319 00:17:41,359 --> 00:17:44,199 Speaker 1: the start of then a bunch of injuries that season 320 00:17:44,280 --> 00:17:46,240 Speaker 1: for a Keen Knicks at the foot of the knee 321 00:17:46,240 --> 00:17:48,040 Speaker 1: on that play. Do you remember it was the I 322 00:17:48,040 --> 00:17:51,399 Speaker 1: think it was both both of them, um. And then 323 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:53,600 Speaker 1: a couple of plays later, the Giants take the lead 324 00:17:53,600 --> 00:17:56,440 Speaker 1: with thirty four seconds to go in the game, second 325 00:17:56,480 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: and one at the two, and it called out. The 326 00:18:00,400 --> 00:18:02,600 Speaker 1: signals gives for Brown again. He's gonna run left and 327 00:18:02,640 --> 00:18:06,199 Speaker 1: we'll go into the touchdown. Giants take it with thirty 328 00:18:06,200 --> 00:18:13,199 Speaker 1: one seconds. Andre Brown's first career rushing touchdown and the 329 00:18:13,240 --> 00:18:16,119 Speaker 1: Giants are up four. But you know, with Josh Freeman 330 00:18:16,160 --> 00:18:19,359 Speaker 1: at quarterback because he was good back. Then the Bucks 331 00:18:19,440 --> 00:18:21,280 Speaker 1: have the ball at the forty five yard line with 332 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:23,760 Speaker 1: twelve seconds to go, and the Giant defense has to 333 00:18:23,760 --> 00:18:27,600 Speaker 1: make one more play. Jackson Williams Clark go wide right, 334 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:32,320 Speaker 1: then near side left. Giants dropped the safety's d second 335 00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:35,520 Speaker 1: of tan at the Giant forty five, twelve seconds to go, 336 00:18:36,080 --> 00:18:38,520 Speaker 1: Freeman's back. Freeman, flushed out of the pocket, throws the 337 00:18:38,520 --> 00:18:41,639 Speaker 1: middle of the field high. They're accepted by Michael Poli. 338 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:45,679 Speaker 1: He sits down Pall game over. Science are gonna win it, 339 00:18:45,680 --> 00:18:48,399 Speaker 1: all right. So remember great Ciano was coming from the 340 00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,600 Speaker 1: college ranks. He's trying to change the attitude. Manny's gonna 341 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: take a knee. The game's over. There's five seconds to go. 342 00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: But Tom Coughlin did not like what happened next, and 343 00:18:58,680 --> 00:19:00,960 Speaker 1: it comes back with big touch down passes in the 344 00:19:01,000 --> 00:19:04,879 Speaker 1: second half victory formation. Oh, they've taken knee and Manny 345 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:09,960 Speaker 1: gets bubbled or Manning's got the ball, but Manning went 346 00:19:10,000 --> 00:19:13,359 Speaker 1: to take a knee and the Bucks bull rushed them 347 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:16,400 Speaker 1: and knocked them down, and you could see Manning mouthing 348 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:20,399 Speaker 1: that was cheap. Yeah, well, you know, they're little upset 349 00:19:20,440 --> 00:19:23,119 Speaker 1: and frustrated that they couldn't close it out. Bob. Now 350 00:19:23,160 --> 00:19:26,200 Speaker 1: we're gonna fast forward here to the two thousand eighteen 351 00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:28,160 Speaker 1: season and what turned out to be a crazy game 352 00:19:28,200 --> 00:19:31,040 Speaker 1: at a shootout between Eli Manning and Jamis Winston. Yeah, 353 00:19:31,040 --> 00:19:34,479 Speaker 1: it was remember the eighteenth um and let's face it, 354 00:19:34,640 --> 00:19:37,199 Speaker 1: you know sa kuon Barkley's rookie season, so there was 355 00:19:37,240 --> 00:19:40,919 Speaker 1: a lot of excitement about Sae Juan and him and 356 00:19:40,960 --> 00:19:43,919 Speaker 1: the New York Giants, and the first series of the 357 00:19:43,960 --> 00:19:47,320 Speaker 1: ball game, Giants had a third and one, Barkley gets 358 00:19:47,400 --> 00:19:50,040 Speaker 1: the first down. So now they're in that attack mode 359 00:19:50,800 --> 00:19:54,280 Speaker 1: and Eli Manning hooking up with Odell Beckham Jr. Manning 360 00:19:54,320 --> 00:19:56,560 Speaker 1: on a play fake takes a deep drop. He's looking 361 00:19:56,560 --> 00:19:58,439 Speaker 1: for the deep ball down the right side, looking for 362 00:19:58,440 --> 00:20:01,080 Speaker 1: O'Dell who makes the catch at the ten and tackled 363 00:20:01,119 --> 00:20:05,280 Speaker 1: at the eight yard line, forty yard pass play Manning 364 00:20:05,280 --> 00:20:07,800 Speaker 1: to Beekham making forty one as they spot them down 365 00:20:07,840 --> 00:20:11,240 Speaker 1: at the seven, and then two plays later, uh Eli 366 00:20:11,359 --> 00:20:14,280 Speaker 1: Manning again going in the air, but this time he 367 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:16,600 Speaker 1: was rookie running back second of goal with the six. 368 00:20:16,640 --> 00:20:19,960 Speaker 1: Manning rolls right, throws right were an open Barkley touchdown, 369 00:20:20,640 --> 00:20:22,840 Speaker 1: and the Giants on the opening drive of the game 370 00:20:22,920 --> 00:20:27,359 Speaker 1: take the lead six nothing. Barkley with his third touchdown 371 00:20:27,440 --> 00:20:29,359 Speaker 1: catch you know, Bob, And it's funny. Before we get 372 00:20:29,400 --> 00:20:30,639 Speaker 1: to the rest of this game, I think it's just 373 00:20:30,720 --> 00:20:33,480 Speaker 1: important to point out this is really one of the 374 00:20:33,640 --> 00:20:37,000 Speaker 1: few games where we had Odell Beckham Jr. And se 375 00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley on the field together before O'Dell suffered that 376 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,520 Speaker 1: season ending injury that year. It was just one of 377 00:20:44,560 --> 00:20:46,400 Speaker 1: those deals where those guys never really got to play 378 00:20:46,520 --> 00:20:50,000 Speaker 1: much together. No, that's a that's a fair point. And um, 379 00:20:50,040 --> 00:20:53,000 Speaker 1: you know, this was a Giants team that I think 380 00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:57,600 Speaker 1: people were very excited about. This was Pat Shermer's first 381 00:20:57,680 --> 00:20:59,800 Speaker 1: year as the head coach of the New York Giants, 382 00:20:59,800 --> 00:21:02,760 Speaker 1: and and I think people thought, Okay, you got O. 383 00:21:02,920 --> 00:21:06,480 Speaker 1: B J. You drafted Barkley, You're gonna have all these weapons, 384 00:21:06,480 --> 00:21:10,600 Speaker 1: but it never really materialized to the level that we 385 00:21:10,800 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: thought it would materialize to UM as far as explosiveness. 386 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:17,040 Speaker 1: But in this game, the Giants got off to a 387 00:21:17,119 --> 00:21:20,440 Speaker 1: nice start. Uh Bucks, you know they look to answer. 388 00:21:20,520 --> 00:21:24,400 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick started this game for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 389 00:21:24,480 --> 00:21:26,240 Speaker 1: and they moved the ball down the field. They get 390 00:21:26,280 --> 00:21:29,560 Speaker 1: it in the red zone. Um, and there they got 391 00:21:29,600 --> 00:21:33,480 Speaker 1: a third and eleven at the Giants fifteen and uh 392 00:21:33,680 --> 00:21:36,119 Speaker 1: Cameron Breake, the tight end makes a ten yard catch. 393 00:21:36,160 --> 00:21:38,480 Speaker 1: So now decision time for the Buccaneers. What are they 394 00:21:38,480 --> 00:21:41,439 Speaker 1: gonna do here? Um? Are they going to kick the 395 00:21:41,440 --> 00:21:45,320 Speaker 1: field goal, go down seven three or go for it? Well, 396 00:21:45,520 --> 00:21:50,800 Speaker 1: they chose the wrong option. Fourth just inside the Giant five, 397 00:21:51,680 --> 00:21:55,760 Speaker 1: Jackson goes in motion across the formation. Fitzpatrick nudges into 398 00:21:55,760 --> 00:21:57,720 Speaker 1: the line. He gets stood up. Boy, I don't know 399 00:21:57,760 --> 00:22:00,680 Speaker 1: if he got it. The near side of Mishill doesn't 400 00:22:00,680 --> 00:22:05,879 Speaker 1: have a Giants great stopped there by Landing Collins. Landon 401 00:22:05,960 --> 00:22:09,879 Speaker 1: Collins and Josh Morrow, a couple of blasts in the 402 00:22:09,960 --> 00:22:12,159 Speaker 1: past come up with the stop for the Giants, so 403 00:22:12,200 --> 00:22:15,040 Speaker 1: they keep him off the board. Now the Giants don't 404 00:22:15,040 --> 00:22:16,840 Speaker 1: have a great field position, all right, they're starting at 405 00:22:16,840 --> 00:22:20,200 Speaker 1: their own five. But here's the brilliance of Sa Kwan. 406 00:22:20,280 --> 00:22:24,040 Speaker 1: Barkley is rookie year. First carries for nine, second carries 407 00:22:24,119 --> 00:22:28,320 Speaker 1: for ten. Rhett Ellison with a twelve yard catch. Uh so, 408 00:22:28,440 --> 00:22:31,879 Speaker 1: now you got first and ten at the thirty six um, 409 00:22:32,320 --> 00:22:37,240 Speaker 1: second and nine UM Benny Fowler with a ten yard catch. 410 00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 1: Some nice names from the past, some names there, all right, 411 00:22:40,520 --> 00:22:43,080 Speaker 1: Gallman's in the game anyway. The Giants moved the ball 412 00:22:43,080 --> 00:22:46,679 Speaker 1: down the field, first and goal to ten. Barkley gets five, 413 00:22:47,320 --> 00:22:49,720 Speaker 1: So why not just give it back to Sa Kwan again? 414 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:52,639 Speaker 1: Manning on a long count gives for Barkley, hurdles a 415 00:22:52,640 --> 00:22:54,840 Speaker 1: man and gets it at again zone for a touchdown. 416 00:22:54,840 --> 00:22:57,679 Speaker 1: The ball came out, but he broke the plane. Wow, 417 00:22:57,880 --> 00:23:01,080 Speaker 1: Barkley jumped over a man at about the three and 418 00:23:01,119 --> 00:23:04,560 Speaker 1: then reach to break the plane. Yeah, and you just 419 00:23:04,600 --> 00:23:07,240 Speaker 1: can't teach that, right, I mean, that's why they drafted 420 00:23:07,280 --> 00:23:10,400 Speaker 1: him when they drafted him. Right. Uh So, it's fourteen 421 00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:13,480 Speaker 1: nothing three and uh one first down and then a 422 00:23:13,560 --> 00:23:16,359 Speaker 1: punt for the Bucks. Giants get the ball back. They 423 00:23:16,400 --> 00:23:20,480 Speaker 1: don't do anything with it now, Fitzpatrick gets a rushing touchdown, 424 00:23:21,040 --> 00:23:24,800 Speaker 1: so it's fourteen to seven. Uh some things, you know, 425 00:23:24,920 --> 00:23:28,840 Speaker 1: thickening a little bit here. Um Giants taken into the 426 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:31,240 Speaker 1: two minute warning, they have to punt the football away. 427 00:23:31,840 --> 00:23:33,679 Speaker 1: Uh So now the Bucks are on the drive. And 428 00:23:33,720 --> 00:23:37,600 Speaker 1: even though the Giants have controlled this first half, Fitzpatrick 429 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: puts his team together and you know, Fitzpatrick fitz magic, 430 00:23:42,960 --> 00:23:45,679 Speaker 1: and this was the infurior. I'll never forget this sequence. 431 00:23:46,080 --> 00:23:48,200 Speaker 1: The Bucks have the ball at the forty nine yard 432 00:23:48,320 --> 00:23:54,320 Speaker 1: line and Olivier Vernon gets called for a neutral zone 433 00:23:54,320 --> 00:23:58,280 Speaker 1: in fraction. I'm back to back place and I'm like, seriously, 434 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:00,880 Speaker 1: situational football here, Like, what what are we doing here? 435 00:24:01,000 --> 00:24:03,320 Speaker 1: He this game of free ten yards and they didn't 436 00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,680 Speaker 1: move the clock. So they have second and ten at 437 00:24:06,680 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 1: the Giants thirty yard line, and the Giants defense make 438 00:24:12,080 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 1: sure that the Giants go into the half with the lead. 439 00:24:15,400 --> 00:24:18,119 Speaker 1: It's Patrick back fires it over the middle. He throws 440 00:24:18,119 --> 00:24:22,280 Speaker 1: the interception as it was undercut by Michael Thomas. He 441 00:24:22,440 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: just read the route of tight end O. J. Howard 442 00:24:24,800 --> 00:24:27,600 Speaker 1: and undercut it for the interception. And Bob, that's gonna 443 00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:30,080 Speaker 1: be a foreshadow of things to come. Is Fit's magic 444 00:24:30,200 --> 00:24:34,200 Speaker 1: becomes Fits tragic. Well, yeah, and uh and the other 445 00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:37,879 Speaker 1: foreshadow things to come of some of some uh, let's 446 00:24:37,960 --> 00:24:42,119 Speaker 1: just say, not notable names in Giants history, uh, in 447 00:24:42,200 --> 00:24:44,679 Speaker 1: this game. But Michael Thomas was a really good player. 448 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,600 Speaker 1: He was very charitable guy off the field, a pleasure 449 00:24:48,600 --> 00:24:51,359 Speaker 1: to be around. He was a real gentleman. And you know, 450 00:24:51,440 --> 00:24:53,960 Speaker 1: for that short structure time played well for the Giants. 451 00:24:53,960 --> 00:24:56,760 Speaker 1: So the teams captain too, right when spec teams captain. 452 00:24:56,840 --> 00:24:58,840 Speaker 1: So the Giants take a seven point lead into the 453 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:02,440 Speaker 1: locker room and um third core Bucks get the ball 454 00:25:02,520 --> 00:25:07,040 Speaker 1: and again, you know, we talked about Fits magic, but 455 00:25:07,200 --> 00:25:09,880 Speaker 1: then there are times where it's Fits tragic, and this 456 00:25:10,000 --> 00:25:12,600 Speaker 1: was one of those games because they didn't start the 457 00:25:12,640 --> 00:25:16,560 Speaker 1: third very well. Second and nine from the eleven, Fitzpatrick 458 00:25:16,600 --> 00:25:19,680 Speaker 1: takes a shotgun snap side. I'm running his passes deflected. 459 00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:23,920 Speaker 1: They accepted after deflection, olgo Tree's got into the goal line, 460 00:25:23,960 --> 00:25:28,080 Speaker 1: touchdown in and out of the hands of Jack Rabbit 461 00:25:28,720 --> 00:25:31,399 Speaker 1: and it went into the hands of Ogletree for a 462 00:25:31,520 --> 00:25:34,480 Speaker 1: pick six. Two guys almost got it that time. Yeah, 463 00:25:34,520 --> 00:25:37,479 Speaker 1: and Alex Ogletree with the pick six, and now the 464 00:25:37,520 --> 00:25:42,520 Speaker 1: Giants lead is fourteen points one to seven. Bucks get 465 00:25:42,520 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: the ball back again. They're moving the football against the Giants. 466 00:25:46,160 --> 00:25:48,119 Speaker 1: They have a second and two at the Giant thirty 467 00:25:48,160 --> 00:25:52,399 Speaker 1: two and another play by the defense. Patrick Crouch is 468 00:25:52,440 --> 00:25:55,160 Speaker 1: under center, takes a deep drop, sets in the pocket, 469 00:25:55,240 --> 00:25:57,640 Speaker 1: throws a high arcing ball into the end zone. It's 470 00:25:57,640 --> 00:26:01,080 Speaker 1: a jump ball and the passes intercepted by Curtis Riley. 471 00:26:01,359 --> 00:26:03,359 Speaker 1: He's gonna run it out to the Tan. He's the 472 00:26:03,400 --> 00:26:08,119 Speaker 1: fifth breaks in the off sideline thirty five and shakes 473 00:26:08,160 --> 00:26:12,359 Speaker 1: that abounds by Howard at the forty yard line. And 474 00:26:12,359 --> 00:26:14,800 Speaker 1: that's why I mentioned Jamis Winston off the top, because 475 00:26:14,800 --> 00:26:17,400 Speaker 1: he would assume the entering this game. Yeah, I mean 476 00:26:17,880 --> 00:26:21,040 Speaker 1: Curtis Riley with the interception again. Another time where the 477 00:26:21,080 --> 00:26:23,800 Speaker 1: Bucks are like threatening and they turned the football over. 478 00:26:24,359 --> 00:26:26,880 Speaker 1: Giants are able to move the ball down the field enough. 479 00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:29,840 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram has a catch on third down to make 480 00:26:29,840 --> 00:26:32,720 Speaker 1: sure the Giants getting field goal range. Aldrich Ross with 481 00:26:32,760 --> 00:26:36,040 Speaker 1: a field goal and now it's twenty four to seven Giants. 482 00:26:36,040 --> 00:26:41,520 Speaker 1: So fits Magic Tragic is out. Incomes Jamis Winston. We 483 00:26:41,640 --> 00:26:45,200 Speaker 1: all know about Jamis Winston and his ability to make plays. 484 00:26:45,280 --> 00:26:48,400 Speaker 1: It's either feast or famine. They got the famine from 485 00:26:48,440 --> 00:26:52,159 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick in this game, and Jamis Winston came in and played, 486 00:26:52,359 --> 00:26:55,600 Speaker 1: you know, played this game loosen fast and uh, you 487 00:26:55,640 --> 00:26:58,520 Speaker 1: know quickly his first series moves his team down the field. 488 00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:03,160 Speaker 1: Giants are playing you know, appropriate defense, not allowing big plays, 489 00:27:03,200 --> 00:27:08,480 Speaker 1: but they get a touchdown. It's now twenty four to fourteen. Um, 490 00:27:08,640 --> 00:27:10,879 Speaker 1: So now the Giants have to respond again. So they 491 00:27:10,880 --> 00:27:12,560 Speaker 1: get the ball at the end of the third quarter. 492 00:27:12,600 --> 00:27:15,119 Speaker 1: They move it down the field first and ten at 493 00:27:15,160 --> 00:27:20,040 Speaker 1: the thirteen. A couple of plays later, Eli Manning goes 494 00:27:20,160 --> 00:27:23,120 Speaker 1: back up top on a third and five from the eight. 495 00:27:23,359 --> 00:27:26,600 Speaker 1: Ellison in motion to the left, Manning back, he looks right, 496 00:27:26,600 --> 00:27:28,119 Speaker 1: he throws to the right corner, the gains out and 497 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:32,400 Speaker 1: it's caught for the touchdown by O'Dell in the back 498 00:27:32,520 --> 00:27:35,200 Speaker 1: right corner of the end zone with the defender all 499 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:39,440 Speaker 1: over him. So that gave the Giants a seventeen point lead. 500 00:27:39,560 --> 00:27:43,400 Speaker 1: But the Bucks boom, boom, boom, seven place seventy seven 501 00:27:43,520 --> 00:27:47,399 Speaker 1: yards three seventeen. Peyton Barber had a touchdown, so again 502 00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:50,400 Speaker 1: the lead is down to ten. Giants go three and out. 503 00:27:50,920 --> 00:27:55,639 Speaker 1: Bucks get the ball. Um Winston throws another touchdown pass 504 00:27:55,800 --> 00:27:59,639 Speaker 1: and like all of a sudden, it's three point game again. 505 00:27:59,760 --> 00:28:03,600 Speaker 1: So the Giants needed drive of their own um and 506 00:28:03,760 --> 00:28:06,479 Speaker 1: they really did a nice job because they got some 507 00:28:06,600 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 1: nice chunk plays. After a two yard run by Barkley. Uh, 508 00:28:10,400 --> 00:28:12,760 Speaker 1: there's the big pass play over the middle to Evan 509 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:16,800 Speaker 1: Ingram for fifty four yards first and ten at the 510 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,960 Speaker 1: eleven yard line with four oh nine to go. Barkley 511 00:28:20,000 --> 00:28:21,880 Speaker 1: with a nice play on first down Bucks and now 512 00:28:22,000 --> 00:28:25,040 Speaker 1: using the timeouts, so the Giants have a third and 513 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:28,320 Speaker 1: one at the two, and this one helps salt the 514 00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:31,440 Speaker 1: game away. Third and one at the two, manning over 515 00:28:31,560 --> 00:28:34,720 Speaker 1: center offset I left handoff Barkley specially is up the 516 00:28:34,720 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: middle for a touchdown. But the Giant defense wasn't very 517 00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:45,320 Speaker 1: compliant here because they're up thirty eight and again six 518 00:28:45,400 --> 00:28:48,800 Speaker 1: play sixty six yards Mike Evans of forty one yard 519 00:28:48,800 --> 00:28:52,920 Speaker 1: touchdown catch Jamis is dealing it. So the Giant lead 520 00:28:53,040 --> 00:28:56,240 Speaker 1: is three. Giants can't run the game out. This was 521 00:28:56,360 --> 00:28:58,960 Speaker 1: I remember being really disappointed about this because with se 522 00:28:59,040 --> 00:29:02,320 Speaker 1: Quan in there, and yeah, I know the Bucks knew 523 00:29:02,360 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: that the Giants were gonna run the ball, but the 524 00:29:04,200 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 1: Giants could not run the game out and they had 525 00:29:06,320 --> 00:29:09,760 Speaker 1: to punt the football away. So the Bucks take over 526 00:29:09,800 --> 00:29:12,320 Speaker 1: at their own twenty yard line twenty three seconds to go. 527 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,640 Speaker 1: They're out of time outs. Uh, they gotta make something happen, 528 00:29:16,160 --> 00:29:18,200 Speaker 1: and they got to Sean Jackson on their team, but 529 00:29:18,240 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: the Giants were ready for it. First to ten Winston 530 00:29:21,400 --> 00:29:24,479 Speaker 1: and a shotgun set. Middle of the field has been 531 00:29:24,560 --> 00:29:27,600 Speaker 1: the sweet spot. He's back to throw. He steps up, 532 00:29:27,640 --> 00:29:29,720 Speaker 1: He's gonna heave one deep down the right side looking 533 00:29:29,720 --> 00:29:32,880 Speaker 1: for Sean Jackson, and the pass is intercepted by b 534 00:29:33,200 --> 00:29:37,120 Speaker 1: W Webb at the Giants. Big interception there, Bob, and 535 00:29:37,120 --> 00:29:39,080 Speaker 1: that would seal the victory. And it's funny I mentioned 536 00:29:39,120 --> 00:29:43,520 Speaker 1: the O'Dell Barkley thing earlier, right, you know, O'Dell would 537 00:29:43,520 --> 00:29:45,160 Speaker 1: just played two more games with the Giants after this. 538 00:29:45,200 --> 00:29:47,479 Speaker 1: He would hurt himself two weeks later in chicagoan at 539 00:29:47,520 --> 00:29:49,720 Speaker 1: overtime game. He'll be out the rest of the year, 540 00:29:49,720 --> 00:29:51,800 Speaker 1: and then they traded him in the off season. Yeah, 541 00:29:51,840 --> 00:29:55,000 Speaker 1: so what we had hoped might be a wonderful one 542 00:29:55,040 --> 00:29:59,360 Speaker 1: two punch never really materialized. And really the Giant defense 543 00:30:00,080 --> 00:30:02,520 Speaker 1: kind of saved him in that game with four interceptions 544 00:30:02,520 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 1: in the football game. And then obviously the big chunk 545 00:30:06,080 --> 00:30:09,680 Speaker 1: pass plays were big Ingram with the fifty four yarder, 546 00:30:09,720 --> 00:30:12,880 Speaker 1: Odell with a forty one yard or Wayne Goldman had 547 00:30:12,920 --> 00:30:15,320 Speaker 1: a twenty one yard catching Barkley goes for a buck 548 00:30:15,400 --> 00:30:19,440 Speaker 1: forty two. So uh, a nice win for the Giants 549 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,640 Speaker 1: in two thousand and eighteen. All right, and now let's 550 00:30:21,720 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: jump one year ahead, Bob. And the reason we're gonna 551 00:30:24,240 --> 00:30:27,880 Speaker 1: discuss this game is it probably is Daniel jones most 552 00:30:27,960 --> 00:30:31,000 Speaker 1: notable performance of his career. It was certainly his kind 553 00:30:31,000 --> 00:30:33,080 Speaker 1: of coming out party a little bit. Well, yeah, it's 554 00:30:33,120 --> 00:30:35,160 Speaker 1: his first career start as a rookie, and he played 555 00:30:35,160 --> 00:30:37,120 Speaker 1: extremely well in this game, obviously, and he had a 556 00:30:37,320 --> 00:30:40,000 Speaker 1: he had a very good rookie season two. And uh, 557 00:30:40,160 --> 00:30:44,200 Speaker 1: you know, look, there was a lot of chatter about 558 00:30:44,280 --> 00:30:48,280 Speaker 1: the fact that, you know, on September the two, they're 559 00:30:48,280 --> 00:30:52,560 Speaker 1: gonna make the move and bench Eli. They hadn't lost 560 00:30:52,680 --> 00:30:55,640 Speaker 1: the first couple of games. At least in my opinion, 561 00:30:55,800 --> 00:30:57,400 Speaker 1: it didn't to me. It didn't have anything to do 562 00:30:57,440 --> 00:31:01,000 Speaker 1: with Eli manning Um, which is which what which is 563 00:31:01,040 --> 00:31:03,120 Speaker 1: why they started the year the way they started it. 564 00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:06,520 Speaker 1: But I think they felt looking at the t leaves 565 00:31:07,000 --> 00:31:09,880 Speaker 1: you know better sooner than later. This game was being 566 00:31:09,880 --> 00:31:13,800 Speaker 1: played in Tampa. It's a very weird atmosphere too, because 567 00:31:13,840 --> 00:31:18,560 Speaker 1: again when the Giants playing Tampa, UM, when they play 568 00:31:18,600 --> 00:31:23,080 Speaker 1: in Florida, there's always a lot more Giants fans there 569 00:31:23,080 --> 00:31:26,200 Speaker 1: than sometimes even the home team. And listen, the Bucks 570 00:31:26,280 --> 00:31:30,640 Speaker 1: jump on the Giants pretty good opening possession of the game. 571 00:31:30,720 --> 00:31:34,200 Speaker 1: Winston throws a touchdown pass. You gotta missed extra point 572 00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:37,400 Speaker 1: at six nothing. Uh. The Giants get a field goal 573 00:31:37,480 --> 00:31:43,960 Speaker 1: coming back at six three UM, Winston evans again. Um 574 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:47,400 Speaker 1: extra point is blocked Matt Gay. This would be a 575 00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:50,040 Speaker 1: theme in this game. A missed extra point, a blocked 576 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: extra point. And you know, despite the fact that the 577 00:31:53,320 --> 00:31:57,960 Speaker 1: Giants have given up two touchdowns on two drives, they're 578 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:02,400 Speaker 1: down twelve to three, so they gotta get something going. Uh, 579 00:32:02,440 --> 00:32:04,720 Speaker 1: And they go on a long drive. It took five 580 00:32:04,760 --> 00:32:07,760 Speaker 1: minutes and twenty three seconds, and there was a big 581 00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: play deep in this drive where Daniel Jones did a 582 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:15,400 Speaker 1: smart thing. He said, you know what, let's give sa 583 00:32:15,520 --> 00:32:17,960 Speaker 1: Kwan Barkley a little chance to do something on a 584 00:32:18,000 --> 00:32:20,920 Speaker 1: third down. Jones had a shotgun set on the third 585 00:32:20,920 --> 00:32:24,840 Speaker 1: and fourth for the twenty six buck splits. Jones gets sacked. Oh, 586 00:32:24,880 --> 00:32:27,520 Speaker 1: he got out of the sack, got hit. Now, Rolls left, 587 00:32:27,600 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: Rolls left, completes in the barkley of the ten and 588 00:32:30,320 --> 00:32:34,080 Speaker 1: knocked down at the eight yard line. Yeah, that was 589 00:32:34,160 --> 00:32:36,800 Speaker 1: huge because that gave the Giants a fresh set of downs. 590 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:41,640 Speaker 1: First in goal the saconduh. Seven Two plays later, Uh, 591 00:32:41,720 --> 00:32:45,200 Speaker 1: the Giants get their first touchdown of the day. Jones 592 00:32:45,320 --> 00:32:47,280 Speaker 1: is gonna run it on a fake cand off. He's 593 00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:51,560 Speaker 1: to the five. He's in touchdown Giants. Daniel Jones faked 594 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,960 Speaker 1: the handoff and then ran it in from seven yards out. 595 00:32:54,960 --> 00:32:58,800 Speaker 1: And in his first start, Daniel Jones with a rushing touchdown. 596 00:32:58,920 --> 00:33:00,760 Speaker 1: And I'm not sure at that point, Bob, that Giant 597 00:33:00,800 --> 00:33:03,160 Speaker 1: fans were aware of what a big part of Daniel 598 00:33:03,240 --> 00:33:05,920 Speaker 1: Jones game his legs were going to be. But this 599 00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:08,600 Speaker 1: would only be the first time he used them. Yeah, 600 00:33:08,640 --> 00:33:12,880 Speaker 1: I mean, and I really do. I mean, I agree, John. 601 00:33:12,880 --> 00:33:15,800 Speaker 1: I think a lot of people see Daniel Jones he 602 00:33:15,920 --> 00:33:18,640 Speaker 1: played at Duke, you know, and they're figuring, all right, 603 00:33:18,640 --> 00:33:21,480 Speaker 1: he's a you know, he's can throw the ball, you know, 604 00:33:21,680 --> 00:33:28,240 Speaker 1: But his ability to run, his speed, his athleticism, I 605 00:33:28,280 --> 00:33:30,840 Speaker 1: think are things that people were not really aware of. 606 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: So twelve ten. Look, the Giants defense is having a 607 00:33:34,160 --> 00:33:38,240 Speaker 1: hard time stopping the Bucks because Evans is a fifty 608 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,960 Speaker 1: five yarder on the very first play from scrimmage. O'shane's 609 00:33:43,000 --> 00:33:45,960 Speaker 1: Imminis got a big sack in this in this sequence 610 00:33:46,000 --> 00:33:49,240 Speaker 1: because it was third and nine at the nineteen and 611 00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:52,080 Speaker 1: then Gay hits a forty seven yard field goal. So 612 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,600 Speaker 1: the Giants are down by that weird score of fifteen 613 00:33:54,600 --> 00:33:58,040 Speaker 1: to ten. UM, but you know, three and out for 614 00:33:58,080 --> 00:34:02,720 Speaker 1: the Giants. Bucks get the ball back. UM Jamis Winston 615 00:34:03,480 --> 00:34:06,880 Speaker 1: gets sacked, Giants hold him to a field goal. So 616 00:34:06,920 --> 00:34:10,760 Speaker 1: the Giant defense is bending, they're not breaking. It's eighteen 617 00:34:10,840 --> 00:34:15,759 Speaker 1: to ten Giants, Uh, They're trying to get a drive going. 618 00:34:15,840 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones oh gets sacked and he fumbles the football. 619 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: Shack Barrett is the guy that got the sack. Carl 620 00:34:22,880 --> 00:34:27,000 Speaker 1: Nassy former Raider UH and the current Raider recovers it. 621 00:34:27,560 --> 00:34:30,719 Speaker 1: And then Winston hooks up with Mike Evans on a 622 00:34:30,719 --> 00:34:33,120 Speaker 1: twenty yard touchdown. And you're sitting there and you're saying yourself, 623 00:34:33,120 --> 00:34:37,840 Speaker 1: all right, it's now twenty five to ten. Jones and 624 00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,000 Speaker 1: the Giants go three and out so this was a 625 00:34:41,000 --> 00:34:43,719 Speaker 1: little inexplicable, right. The Giants go three and out with 626 00:34:44,640 --> 00:34:48,680 Speaker 1: to go on the half. Uh two in completions and 627 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:51,320 Speaker 1: then Jones scrambles he runs out of bounds. That stops 628 00:34:51,360 --> 00:34:55,200 Speaker 1: the clock, so Dixon punts the ball away. Bucks started 629 00:34:55,239 --> 00:34:58,320 Speaker 1: their own twenty yard line with thirty six seconds to 630 00:34:58,360 --> 00:35:01,840 Speaker 1: go on the half, and I'm like, can they stop him? 631 00:35:01,880 --> 00:35:04,040 Speaker 1: The Bucks were like kind of trying to run out 632 00:35:04,080 --> 00:35:09,240 Speaker 1: the half. They run like a little draw or endplay 633 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:13,399 Speaker 1: to Jones and he gets twenty five yards on the 634 00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:16,960 Speaker 1: freaking first play. So I'm like, next thing you know, 635 00:35:17,640 --> 00:35:20,000 Speaker 1: Jamis has him in rains to kick a field goal. 636 00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:24,360 Speaker 1: Gay hits a fifty two yard or and Daniel Jones 637 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,880 Speaker 1: first starts not looking good. The Giants are down to 638 00:35:27,000 --> 00:35:30,160 Speaker 1: ten at the half. They do get the ball to 639 00:35:30,160 --> 00:35:33,280 Speaker 1: start the third. They need to make something happen quick, 640 00:35:33,920 --> 00:35:36,040 Speaker 1: and they did. On the first snap of the half, 641 00:35:36,520 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: fakes a handoff to Gallman, sets delivers one right, He's 642 00:35:39,480 --> 00:35:40,920 Speaker 1: got Ingram on the run. He steps out of a 643 00:35:40,960 --> 00:35:43,439 Speaker 1: tackle across midfield to the forty five devil left shode 644 00:35:43,520 --> 00:35:48,760 Speaker 1: under the fifteen ten five touchdown Giants seventy five yards 645 00:35:48,920 --> 00:35:52,759 Speaker 1: catch and run to Evan Ingram, the longest catch of 646 00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:55,919 Speaker 1: his career. Jones takes the snap, he's back to throw, 647 00:35:56,040 --> 00:35:58,400 Speaker 1: he looks left, he throws left. He's got sterling Shepard 648 00:35:58,400 --> 00:36:02,880 Speaker 1: who walks in for the two pointer. Alright, so Ingram, 649 00:36:03,280 --> 00:36:06,399 Speaker 1: I mean, I'll never forget that speed. Man. I'm we're 650 00:36:06,440 --> 00:36:09,799 Speaker 1: watching it from the booth. He's running that and it's 651 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:11,960 Speaker 1: like wow. And it was just a little twelve yard 652 00:36:12,040 --> 00:36:14,040 Speaker 1: cross corn it in space, turned it off field and 653 00:36:14,080 --> 00:36:16,920 Speaker 1: no one was catching him. I mean, that thing was sweet. 654 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:19,000 Speaker 1: I think Giants fans, I think that's one of the 655 00:36:19,080 --> 00:36:24,160 Speaker 1: burning images in Giants fans minds, is that play by 656 00:36:24,239 --> 00:36:28,520 Speaker 1: Evan Ingram And why they haven't seen more of it since? 657 00:36:28,800 --> 00:36:32,160 Speaker 1: I mean they have, there's been he's made play since then. 658 00:36:32,320 --> 00:36:33,840 Speaker 1: You have to touching against the Raiders, which is a 659 00:36:33,880 --> 00:36:35,880 Speaker 1: great catch over the top on Abram. But there's that 660 00:36:36,080 --> 00:36:40,399 Speaker 1: explosiveness that that play gave you that you're like, oh man, 661 00:36:40,520 --> 00:36:43,920 Speaker 1: they got a difference maker here Shepherd the two point conversion. 662 00:36:45,120 --> 00:36:47,640 Speaker 1: So they get it to ten. Uh, they give up 663 00:36:47,680 --> 00:36:50,719 Speaker 1: a first down, they forced upon back to work of 664 00:36:50,880 --> 00:36:54,600 Speaker 1: the Giants and uh, right out of the gate, a 665 00:36:54,680 --> 00:36:58,080 Speaker 1: little end around Shepherd gets nineteen little breathing room for 666 00:36:58,160 --> 00:37:02,800 Speaker 1: the Giants. Then Shepard with an eight yard catch, Gallman 667 00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:05,840 Speaker 1: with a run. Uh. Slayton had a catch in this 668 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,680 Speaker 1: one of forty six yards. This was a big pass 669 00:37:09,760 --> 00:37:13,160 Speaker 1: play to Darius Slayton. So now the Giants have it 670 00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:16,200 Speaker 1: first and goal at the four. They do a little 671 00:37:16,200 --> 00:37:20,399 Speaker 1: bit of the Giant retreat with a penalty in there 672 00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:25,239 Speaker 1: on Benny Fowler. So it's a big third down, third 673 00:37:25,280 --> 00:37:27,360 Speaker 1: and goal for the Giants, and now they have a 674 00:37:27,440 --> 00:37:29,719 Speaker 1: chance to get through within three. Third and goal at 675 00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:32,320 Speaker 1: the seven. Giants down by ten. Here in the third 676 00:37:32,960 --> 00:37:35,680 Speaker 1: Jones calls out the signals Gollman who was left. He 677 00:37:35,760 --> 00:37:38,839 Speaker 1: takes the snappy's back to throw, fires one right into 678 00:37:38,880 --> 00:37:41,880 Speaker 1: the end zone, cat for a touchdown by Sterling Shepherd. 679 00:37:42,400 --> 00:37:46,439 Speaker 1: Want to catch by Shepherd. Sterling Shepherd with a heck 680 00:37:46,520 --> 00:37:52,359 Speaker 1: of a catch. Extra points. Good. Giants down three and out, 681 00:37:53,520 --> 00:37:59,520 Speaker 1: get the ball back. Jones gets sacked, fumbles it. Gallman 682 00:37:59,600 --> 00:38:02,960 Speaker 1: recover it though, and Uh well, at first it was 683 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:06,200 Speaker 1: ruled that the Bucks had it, but the Giants get 684 00:38:06,239 --> 00:38:10,440 Speaker 1: the ball, they wind up punting it away. Bucks get 685 00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:13,600 Speaker 1: it back, didn't get a little drive going, but they 686 00:38:13,640 --> 00:38:16,399 Speaker 1: have to punt the football away. The third quarter ends 687 00:38:16,440 --> 00:38:20,680 Speaker 1: with a Jones sack for eleven and a Galman run 688 00:38:21,600 --> 00:38:24,400 Speaker 1: for six, so Giants are in position. Though here the 689 00:38:24,560 --> 00:38:28,440 Speaker 1: down three don't do anything with it. Gotta punt the 690 00:38:28,480 --> 00:38:31,800 Speaker 1: football away. They neither defense to make a play, and 691 00:38:32,120 --> 00:38:37,000 Speaker 1: Winston's Winston's making some plays first intend at the Giant forty. 692 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:41,359 Speaker 1: A couple of plays later, they're facing a big third down. 693 00:38:41,880 --> 00:38:44,480 Speaker 1: They're getting in field goal range to push this three 694 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,560 Speaker 1: point lead even bigger, and the defense makes the play. 695 00:38:47,920 --> 00:38:50,880 Speaker 1: Winston back to throw high over the middle of intercepted 696 00:38:50,920 --> 00:38:53,520 Speaker 1: by the Giants. Connolly, the rookie gets his first pick 697 00:38:53,800 --> 00:38:56,960 Speaker 1: and the Giants first turn over the year. Terrible throw 698 00:38:57,080 --> 00:39:01,600 Speaker 1: by Winston and Ryan Connolly with the pick, and the 699 00:39:01,719 --> 00:39:04,280 Speaker 1: Giants have it first and ten at their own forty. 700 00:39:04,600 --> 00:39:08,040 Speaker 1: And there's a name for you, Ryan Connolly. Yeah, well, 701 00:39:08,120 --> 00:39:12,400 Speaker 1: and made a play there gets the pick um so 702 00:39:12,520 --> 00:39:17,480 Speaker 1: that keeps points off the board, but Jones gives it 703 00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:23,800 Speaker 1: right back. Jones gets sacked, Shack Barrett fumbles the football 704 00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:28,000 Speaker 1: and the Bucks wind up recovering it. So they got 705 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:30,759 Speaker 1: it first intended the Giant forty two. Good defense by 706 00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:34,399 Speaker 1: the Giants I remember in this game because they held 707 00:39:34,480 --> 00:39:38,080 Speaker 1: him to three another three and out by the Giants, 708 00:39:38,640 --> 00:39:41,359 Speaker 1: three and out by the box. So now we got 709 00:39:41,400 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 1: three minutes ago in the game. Can Daniel Jones work 710 00:39:45,960 --> 00:39:49,880 Speaker 1: a little magic here in his first ever start. Elis 711 00:39:49,960 --> 00:39:54,520 Speaker 1: on the sideline watching. He's not happy, but he's being 712 00:39:54,640 --> 00:39:57,439 Speaker 1: supportive of Jones, because remember the Jones and Eli knew 713 00:39:57,480 --> 00:39:59,640 Speaker 1: each other from way back. I mean they had the 714 00:39:59,680 --> 00:40:05,080 Speaker 1: same coach and David Cutcliff, so there's familiarity there. And 715 00:40:05,160 --> 00:40:07,400 Speaker 1: I think Daniel Jones hit all the right notes when 716 00:40:07,440 --> 00:40:10,799 Speaker 1: he came here. How everything was handled in a best 717 00:40:10,840 --> 00:40:13,520 Speaker 1: case scenario couldn't have been easy for Eli to watch. 718 00:40:14,080 --> 00:40:16,560 Speaker 1: So there's three sixteen ago. John's gotta make something happen. 719 00:40:17,360 --> 00:40:21,880 Speaker 1: Shepherd for five, Slaton for one um and then the Giants, 720 00:40:22,640 --> 00:40:26,920 Speaker 1: you know, they finally get the ball into Buck's territory, 721 00:40:28,400 --> 00:40:32,239 Speaker 1: and just before the two minute warning, Shepherd makes a 722 00:40:32,320 --> 00:40:35,400 Speaker 1: big play for them. Jones back to throw steps up 723 00:40:35,760 --> 00:40:38,480 Speaker 1: fastball down the left side, wide open. A sterling Shepherd 724 00:40:38,640 --> 00:40:41,600 Speaker 1: cuts right at the twenty six at the fifteen tackle 725 00:40:41,680 --> 00:40:45,840 Speaker 1: from behind at the twelve thirty six yards the sterling 726 00:40:45,960 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 1: Shepherd and that takes us to the two minute warning. 727 00:40:49,440 --> 00:40:51,200 Speaker 1: And that was huge, right because now you're at the 728 00:40:51,239 --> 00:40:55,359 Speaker 1: two minute warning, you're at the twelve yard line. Uh, 729 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:59,600 Speaker 1: you're trailing in the ball game. So field goals are 730 00:40:59,640 --> 00:41:03,040 Speaker 1: not an option at this point. Giants have to score 731 00:41:03,040 --> 00:41:08,560 Speaker 1: a touchdown um and what they do is they use 732 00:41:08,680 --> 00:41:13,160 Speaker 1: the legs of Daniel Jones. And I think Jones, you know, 733 00:41:13,239 --> 00:41:16,880 Speaker 1: he shows good savvy and good awareness here because you 734 00:41:16,920 --> 00:41:18,799 Speaker 1: know they got they didn't do much on second. Now 735 00:41:18,840 --> 00:41:24,000 Speaker 1: they got five yards on first incomplete to Ingram, incomplete 736 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,800 Speaker 1: to Ingram. So the game is hanging in the balance 737 00:41:27,960 --> 00:41:30,360 Speaker 1: right here. Right, You're not kicking a field goal with 738 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:33,720 Speaker 1: a minute twenty to go because you're down by six. 739 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:37,759 Speaker 1: So you're out of timeouts. So what do you do? 740 00:41:38,840 --> 00:41:41,320 Speaker 1: You hope you're a rookie quarterback in his first start 741 00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:44,600 Speaker 1: can make something happen with his arms or in this case, 742 00:41:44,680 --> 00:41:47,839 Speaker 1: with his legs. Jones takes the snap back to throw 743 00:41:48,000 --> 00:41:50,399 Speaker 1: steps up. He's gonna run, Joes to the five put 744 00:41:50,480 --> 00:41:53,920 Speaker 1: down Giants. Daniel Jones at a seven yard run on 745 00:41:54,120 --> 00:41:56,800 Speaker 1: a fourth and five from the seven, and the Giants 746 00:41:56,840 --> 00:42:00,040 Speaker 1: have tied it up with one six Team Ago and 747 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:02,560 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones with almost as many rushing touchdowns in his 748 00:42:02,680 --> 00:42:04,640 Speaker 1: first game and then he like had over the course 749 00:42:04,680 --> 00:42:07,279 Speaker 1: of his career. Bob, Yeah, I mean, and that was 750 00:42:07,360 --> 00:42:10,600 Speaker 1: great awareness and you saw his speed athleticism. They get 751 00:42:10,680 --> 00:42:13,960 Speaker 1: the extra point, and you're sitting there and you're going, 752 00:42:14,000 --> 00:42:18,200 Speaker 1: all right, and something about this kid fourth quarter magic 753 00:42:18,920 --> 00:42:23,400 Speaker 1: here we go. Um, but remember something. I'm just I 754 00:42:23,440 --> 00:42:25,640 Speaker 1: gotta look at the statue. I mean, Jamis Winston in 755 00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,120 Speaker 1: this game, why not finishing with three eight yards passing, 756 00:42:29,400 --> 00:42:34,920 Speaker 1: I mean, carved up the Giant defense. Daniel Jones at 757 00:42:34,960 --> 00:42:37,959 Speaker 1: this point in time, he had three hundred and thirty 758 00:42:38,040 --> 00:42:42,760 Speaker 1: six yards passing, was sacked five times, fumbled it twice, 759 00:42:43,440 --> 00:42:48,000 Speaker 1: had thrown two touchdown passes. Plus Jones was the Giants 760 00:42:48,120 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: leading rusher that day, four carriage for twenty eight yards, 761 00:42:51,160 --> 00:42:57,960 Speaker 1: including that go ahead touchdown. But the Bucks, I mean again, 762 00:42:58,360 --> 00:43:02,920 Speaker 1: Giant defense, they've given up place. They gave up a 763 00:43:03,560 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: big twenty yard to Godwin and then uh Winston hits 764 00:43:10,320 --> 00:43:13,279 Speaker 1: a forty four yarder to Mike Evans. So now all 765 00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:18,040 Speaker 1: of a sudden, the Bucks in no time have it 766 00:43:18,160 --> 00:43:20,640 Speaker 1: first and goal at the Giants nine with thirteen seconds 767 00:43:20,719 --> 00:43:24,840 Speaker 1: to go. All they need is a field goal and 768 00:43:24,920 --> 00:43:27,480 Speaker 1: they win the game. Now, for some reason, they get 769 00:43:27,560 --> 00:43:31,920 Speaker 1: a delay a game penalty, which moves him back. Winston 770 00:43:32,000 --> 00:43:36,040 Speaker 1: then runs to his left wants to center things for Gay. Now, 771 00:43:36,080 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: remember Gay had had an extra point missed and uh 772 00:43:41,760 --> 00:43:45,040 Speaker 1: missed a field goal earlier in the game. But it's 773 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,399 Speaker 1: a thirty four yarder. The thing I remember again, early 774 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:50,640 Speaker 1: in this podcast we talked about the two thousand and 775 00:43:50,719 --> 00:43:55,000 Speaker 1: eight the two thousand seven playoff game games in Tampa. 776 00:43:55,160 --> 00:43:59,759 Speaker 1: There are more Giants fans there and Gays coming on 777 00:43:59,840 --> 00:44:02,480 Speaker 1: a try a thirty four yard field goal. Listen to 778 00:44:02,600 --> 00:44:07,759 Speaker 1: the call, but more importantly, listen to the crowd. Kick 779 00:44:07,880 --> 00:44:12,319 Speaker 1: on its way, and it's no good. He missed it. Wait, 780 00:44:12,480 --> 00:44:15,919 Speaker 1: missed the kick, and the Giants win the first game 781 00:44:15,960 --> 00:44:21,719 Speaker 1: of the season. Wow. So like, look, normally, when you're 782 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:25,359 Speaker 1: on the road and you're doing play by play where 783 00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:28,279 Speaker 1: you are in your booth, you can't really see if 784 00:44:28,320 --> 00:44:32,440 Speaker 1: a kick is going through or not. Most of the booths, unfortunately, 785 00:44:33,200 --> 00:44:36,319 Speaker 1: do not give us a clean feed, which means an 786 00:44:36,440 --> 00:44:39,680 Speaker 1: actual real time feed. You're getting a feed on your 787 00:44:39,760 --> 00:44:45,280 Speaker 1: monitor that's delayed two or three seconds. In some cases, 788 00:44:45,640 --> 00:44:47,800 Speaker 1: it's a whole play behind we're not getting with the 789 00:44:47,880 --> 00:44:51,160 Speaker 1: network TV broadcaster is getting in his booth, which is 790 00:44:51,200 --> 00:44:56,560 Speaker 1: a direct, automatic, in real time feed of what's happening. 791 00:44:56,640 --> 00:44:59,680 Speaker 1: So I can't look at the monitor. He can't really 792 00:44:59,719 --> 00:45:02,520 Speaker 1: see from the angle you're looking at the officials. But 793 00:45:02,560 --> 00:45:04,520 Speaker 1: a lot of times, if it's a home game or 794 00:45:04,560 --> 00:45:08,560 Speaker 1: a road game, you let the crowd help you. So 795 00:45:08,760 --> 00:45:12,080 Speaker 1: I paused there on the call because there were so 796 00:45:12,200 --> 00:45:18,120 Speaker 1: many Giants fans there. Do you hear this gigantic cheer 797 00:45:18,239 --> 00:45:21,040 Speaker 1: when he misses? Now, in my brain, I'm like, we're 798 00:45:21,080 --> 00:45:24,360 Speaker 1: in Tampa. In my brain, I'm saying to myself, the 799 00:45:24,600 --> 00:45:27,600 Speaker 1: cheer means he made it for the home team. But 800 00:45:27,719 --> 00:45:32,160 Speaker 1: I waited because the cheer was actually all the Giants 801 00:45:32,239 --> 00:45:34,200 Speaker 1: fans that were in that end zone cheering that he 802 00:45:34,360 --> 00:45:38,200 Speaker 1: missed the kick and that the Giants had one amazing 803 00:45:38,920 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 1: a lot of fun. Two things I want to clean up. One, 804 00:45:41,320 --> 00:45:44,120 Speaker 1: Eli had seven rushing touchdowns over the course of his career, 805 00:45:44,480 --> 00:45:47,200 Speaker 1: just for the record, uh And Barkley and Beckham played 806 00:45:47,200 --> 00:45:50,319 Speaker 1: twelve games together that one year before the Beckham trade. 807 00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 1: Last thing, I'll say, Bob, as you talked about how 808 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:54,399 Speaker 1: this was a tough thing for Daniel to take over 809 00:45:54,480 --> 00:45:57,279 Speaker 1: for Eli. The one thing I remember earlier that week, 810 00:45:57,480 --> 00:45:59,560 Speaker 1: and if you remember, I think it was a Tuesday 811 00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:02,360 Speaker 1: morning when the announcement came out that Daniel was going 812 00:46:02,400 --> 00:46:05,080 Speaker 1: to start for Eli. And I'm there late that Tuesday 813 00:46:05,160 --> 00:46:06,960 Speaker 1: and we're in this facility. There's no COVID yet, so 814 00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:09,400 Speaker 1: we're walking around with the cafeteria in the players and everything. 815 00:46:09,719 --> 00:46:10,920 Speaker 1: And it's towards the end of the day. I walk 816 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:14,040 Speaker 1: into the cafeteria and who's sitting there eating dinner at 817 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:18,840 Speaker 1: five thirty on Tuesday afternoon. Daniel Jones and Eli Manning. 818 00:46:19,600 --> 00:46:21,880 Speaker 1: No one would have, for you know, held it against 819 00:46:21,920 --> 00:46:25,960 Speaker 1: Eli for on a day where his day's starting NFL 820 00:46:26,040 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: games and maybe his NFL career were over, to go home, 821 00:46:29,280 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: let his mind reset, come back the next day and 822 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:33,720 Speaker 1: be a good teammate. But he stayed in the building 823 00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:36,240 Speaker 1: help Daniel get ready for a game. On a Tuesday, 824 00:46:36,280 --> 00:46:37,880 Speaker 1: which is a player's off day. No one has to 825 00:46:37,960 --> 00:46:40,560 Speaker 1: be in the building that day. It's voluntary. Quarter Yeah, 826 00:46:40,600 --> 00:46:46,240 Speaker 1: the quarterbacks usually are. Quarterbacks are in the building on Tuesday, 827 00:46:46,440 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: not required, but they always are. They are. They are 828 00:46:48,719 --> 00:46:52,120 Speaker 1: they're visiting with the offensive coordinator, the head coach, they're 829 00:46:52,280 --> 00:46:55,520 Speaker 1: going through because Tuesday's game planned day. Any input that 830 00:46:55,640 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 1: they may be asked for, they're they're they're doing their 831 00:46:58,120 --> 00:47:01,200 Speaker 1: studying so that they can help the coaches on Wednesday 832 00:47:01,280 --> 00:47:03,719 Speaker 1: with presentation. But for him to be there, it was 833 00:47:03,760 --> 00:47:05,680 Speaker 1: just amazing. Yeah, And I think he had a lot 834 00:47:05,719 --> 00:47:08,520 Speaker 1: of respect for Daniel Jones. I think he understood the 835 00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:11,840 Speaker 1: reason why this whole thing happened the way it happened. Again, 836 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:16,000 Speaker 1: it happened way too short, I'm sure for Eli and 837 00:47:16,200 --> 00:47:20,520 Speaker 1: Eli's fan base, and again they they hadn't lost those 838 00:47:20,560 --> 00:47:24,560 Speaker 1: other games because of Eli manning. Um, it was more 839 00:47:24,719 --> 00:47:30,360 Speaker 1: function of team and you know, a coaching staff. I 840 00:47:30,480 --> 00:47:32,960 Speaker 1: wanted to appeal the band aid off quickly rather than 841 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:36,960 Speaker 1: slowly and get Daniel Jones the experience that he needed. 842 00:47:37,520 --> 00:47:41,160 Speaker 1: Fortunately for Eli, he would get a chance to play 843 00:47:41,239 --> 00:47:44,239 Speaker 1: again that season. Should have won the game in Philadelphia. 844 00:47:44,760 --> 00:47:47,440 Speaker 1: They should have won that game in Philadelphia when Eli 845 00:47:47,520 --> 00:47:48,880 Speaker 1: got thrown in there. I think it was on a 846 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:53,239 Speaker 1: Sunday night to Sunday Night football. And then obviously, um 847 00:47:53,520 --> 00:47:55,920 Speaker 1: he got to play that game against Miami with Daniel 848 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,399 Speaker 1: Jones hurt and leaving MetLife Stadium with his last start 849 00:47:59,480 --> 00:48:02,719 Speaker 1: being a win against the Dolphins, and the Giants play 850 00:48:02,760 --> 00:48:04,399 Speaker 1: the Dolphins in a couple of weeks. Bob, maybe we'll 851 00:48:04,400 --> 00:48:06,400 Speaker 1: talk a little bit more about that game when we 852 00:48:06,480 --> 00:48:09,160 Speaker 1: talk about that. Well, considering that the Giants only play 853 00:48:09,239 --> 00:48:12,759 Speaker 1: the Dolphins once every four years, our inventory is not 854 00:48:12,920 --> 00:48:15,640 Speaker 1: as deep as say the box or division rival. So 855 00:48:15,719 --> 00:48:19,319 Speaker 1: I'm guessing Eli Manning's last ever start as a New 856 00:48:19,400 --> 00:48:23,160 Speaker 1: York Giant will make the cut for the Giants Dolphins 857 00:48:23,800 --> 00:48:27,319 Speaker 1: Papa's Perspective podcast.
