The Giants 10 00:00:29,080 --> 00:00:32,080 Speaker 2: with over forty players not playing in this game, whether 11 00:00:32,200 --> 00:00:35,639 Speaker 2: because of coach's decision or injury, So you really did 12 00:00:35,680 --> 00:00:37,839 Speaker 2: not see many of the starters out there in this game. 13 00:00:37,920 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 2: John Schmulk Jonathan can see us with you from the 14 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:44,360 Speaker 2: visiting radio booth at MetLife Stadium JC. These are a 15 00:00:44,400 --> 00:00:46,800 Speaker 2: lot of guys, quite frankly, playing this game that are 16 00:00:46,880 --> 00:00:49,440 Speaker 2: unlikely to be on the initial fifty three man roster. 17 00:00:50,080 --> 00:00:51,880 Speaker 2: We did have some injuries we'll get to. But what 18 00:00:52,240 --> 00:00:54,760 Speaker 2: players did catch your eye as you were watching this game. 19 00:00:54,600 --> 00:00:57,319 Speaker 3: Today, Well, number one, the guy that just jumps right off. 20 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 3: If you look at the stat sheet, kJ Cloyd sixteen 21 00:01:01,160 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 3: tackles a couple of TFLs and he just felt like 22 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:04,479 Speaker 3: watching him. 23 00:01:04,480 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: He was in his own He likes to celebrate, yeah 24 00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:06,800 Speaker 1: he does. 25 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 3: Yeah, but he's physical, he's downhill. He wasn't playing in 26 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:11,319 Speaker 3: the back foot a lot. A lot of the tackles 27 00:01:11,319 --> 00:01:12,880 Speaker 3: were like kind of at the line of scrimmage or 28 00:01:12,920 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 3: like one or two yard games played downhill. That's what 29 00:01:15,600 --> 00:01:17,039 Speaker 3: you want to see from a linebacker. He made a 30 00:01:17,040 --> 00:01:18,839 Speaker 3: case tonight. He made a big case TN And that's. 31 00:01:18,680 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 2: A position where the Giants have a lot of injuries, 32 00:01:20,200 --> 00:01:22,440 Speaker 2: so there could be an opportunity there depending on what 33 00:01:22,480 --> 00:01:26,240 Speaker 2: the health situation for guys like Carter Coughlin, guys like 34 00:01:26,880 --> 00:01:30,240 Speaker 2: Big Fadden, players like that, to see maybe one of 35 00:01:30,280 --> 00:01:33,280 Speaker 2: these linebackers can figure a way to slide on the team. Now, 36 00:01:33,640 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 2: the one thing we should touch on before we take 37 00:01:35,319 --> 00:01:38,920 Speaker 2: our first book, JC, is the injury problems. Two guys 38 00:01:38,920 --> 00:01:42,440 Speaker 2: that are expected to maybe one yesle starter, the other 39 00:01:42,480 --> 00:01:47,000 Speaker 2: one certainly a primary backup on this team. John Michael 40 00:01:47,040 --> 00:01:49,120 Speaker 2: Schmiz he got rolled on a little bit. He had 41 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 2: to lead the game with an ankle injury. Evan neil 42 00:01:51,640 --> 00:01:55,640 Speaker 2: Re injured his left ankle. He was ruled out for 43 00:01:55,680 --> 00:01:58,520 Speaker 2: the game. You know, but gn Michael Schmidz is supposed 44 00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:00,760 Speaker 2: to be the starting center and Neil supposed to be 45 00:02:00,760 --> 00:02:03,200 Speaker 2: the backup tackle. Not great to see those two guys 46 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:05,200 Speaker 2: go out. It's important to note now that guy got 47 00:02:05,240 --> 00:02:07,680 Speaker 2: brought to the back. Nowither guy got X rays. Both 48 00:02:07,720 --> 00:02:09,640 Speaker 2: are just standing on the silent with their sneakers on 49 00:02:09,720 --> 00:02:12,040 Speaker 2: in the second half, so there's no way to tell 50 00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:12,880 Speaker 2: us serious they are. 51 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:14,800 Speaker 1: But it doesn't seem to be serious longer. 52 00:02:14,960 --> 00:02:15,120 Speaker 4: Right. 53 00:02:15,280 --> 00:02:16,959 Speaker 3: It was good to see that then it was still 54 00:02:17,000 --> 00:02:18,720 Speaker 3: out there because if you if you have a lower 55 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,000 Speaker 3: body injury that's serious, they're gonna take you back. They're 56 00:02:21,000 --> 00:02:22,400 Speaker 3: gonna get you off your feet. They might even take 57 00:02:22,440 --> 00:02:23,120 Speaker 3: you to the hospital. 58 00:02:23,480 --> 00:02:24,680 Speaker 4: You know, there's things ice. 59 00:02:24,919 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 1: They're gonna wrap it in ice. Like they weren't even 60 00:02:26,760 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: wrapped up with ice. 61 00:02:27,800 --> 00:02:29,880 Speaker 4: So I guess that's good news moving forward. We don't 62 00:02:29,880 --> 00:02:30,040 Speaker 4: know that. 63 00:02:30,120 --> 00:02:32,520 Speaker 3: We're not doctors. We weren't in Sylon, we weren't down 64 00:02:32,560 --> 00:02:34,639 Speaker 3: in the training room. So we'll see. But they are 65 00:02:34,880 --> 00:02:37,280 Speaker 3: huge injuries and that's gonna set them back, even if 66 00:02:37,320 --> 00:02:39,440 Speaker 3: they have to miss a practice or two, which at 67 00:02:39,520 --> 00:02:42,160 Speaker 3: least that would happen. You know, given whatever injury, it 68 00:02:42,240 --> 00:02:42,840 Speaker 3: may be. 69 00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:44,000 Speaker 1: No question about it. 70 00:02:44,040 --> 00:02:46,240 Speaker 2: Tonight's game breakdown was brought to you by our local 71 00:02:46,280 --> 00:02:47,040 Speaker 2: Ford stores. 72 00:02:47,320 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: One engine drives this team. 73 00:02:49,120 --> 00:02:51,320 Speaker 2: For current offers, there's a buy Ford now dot com 74 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:52,680 Speaker 2: Ford Official truck of the Giants. 75 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:53,679 Speaker 1: We come back. 76 00:02:53,840 --> 00:02:56,240 Speaker 2: Brian Dabele takes the podium on the WFA and Giants 77 00:02:56,280 --> 00:02:56,880 Speaker 2: Radio Network. 78 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:01,680 Speaker 5: You're listening to Giants Extra Point on the WFAN Giants 79 00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:02,679 Speaker 5: Radio Network. 80 00:03:02,919 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 2: Giants Football is brought to you by Verizon, the official 81 00:03:05,320 --> 00:03:07,919 Speaker 2: five G network of the New York Giants, Verizon America's 82 00:03:07,960 --> 00:03:11,360 Speaker 2: most reliable network.

We'll be 86 00:03:20,000 --> 00:03:21,720 Speaker 2: hearing from Brian Dable with the ponium. In just a 87 00:03:21,760 --> 00:03:24,920 Speaker 2: little bit, we'll have audio from the locker room as 88 00:03:24,919 --> 00:03:27,440 Speaker 2: well as players reacting against in this final preseason game. 89 00:03:27,919 --> 00:03:31,079 Speaker 2: JC Tommy DeVito not a super productive game through the 90 00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 2: air to show off his legs a little bit. How 91 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: much do you attribute the Giants lack of offensive production 92 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:37,800 Speaker 2: to him? Or was it everything that was going on 93 00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 2: around him, including fairly porous offensive line play. I think 94 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:43,440 Speaker 2: the Jets had seven sacks in the game. 95 00:03:43,560 --> 00:03:44,320 Speaker 4: Eight sacks. 96 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:45,000 Speaker 1: Oh I miss one. 97 00:03:45,160 --> 00:03:48,840 Speaker 3: Sorry, eight sacks against Tommy DeVito. Somewhere his fault somewhere, 98 00:03:48,880 --> 00:03:52,000 Speaker 3: the all line f the last drive did some of 99 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 3: the cover sacks. But what I did see from Tommy 100 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:57,320 Speaker 3: was even though one of the last drives, he got 101 00:03:57,320 --> 00:03:59,520 Speaker 3: sacked pretty early in the drive, and he still managed 102 00:03:59,520 --> 00:04:01,120 Speaker 3: to get the ball all down the field, which is 103 00:04:01,160 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 3: which is a good thing. 104 00:04:02,320 --> 00:04:02,520 Speaker 4: You know. 105 00:04:02,800 --> 00:04:05,920 Speaker 3: Some drop passes there, Uh, some you know, guys getting 106 00:04:05,960 --> 00:04:08,040 Speaker 3: beat right away, you know, I mean, but you know, 107 00:04:08,280 --> 00:04:10,160 Speaker 3: we're talking about second or third string guys. 108 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:10,720 Speaker 4: You know. 109 00:04:10,800 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 3: Not everybody's gonna play in the NFL, you know, And 110 00:04:12,960 --> 00:04:15,360 Speaker 3: that's what you see out here today. It's a it's 111 00:04:15,360 --> 00:04:17,600 Speaker 3: a rough it's a rough game to watch a little bit, 112 00:04:18,080 --> 00:04:20,120 Speaker 3: you know. But like I said, there were some guys 113 00:04:20,160 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 3: that played lights out, O Cloyd being one of them. 114 00:04:22,520 --> 00:04:24,800 Speaker 3: I thought, I don't think Tommy DeVito hurt himself. You know, 115 00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,279 Speaker 3: I think he did what I think, you know, kind 116 00:04:28,279 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 3: of expected from him, you know what I mean, Like 117 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,520 Speaker 3: he he threw a couple of good passes late in 118 00:04:32,520 --> 00:04:36,400 Speaker 3: the game. He showed his toughness, he showed his escapability 119 00:04:36,400 --> 00:04:40,599 Speaker 3: from the pocket. Uh, his ability to create on third 120 00:04:40,640 --> 00:04:41,840 Speaker 3: down and get the first out. 121 00:04:41,960 --> 00:04:43,120 Speaker 1: It sounds like we have Brian Dable. 122 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:49,640 Speaker 6: Yeah, how's John Michael Stick? How much a concern is that? 123 00:04:50,360 --> 00:04:52,400 Speaker 7: I would say, I don't know how anybody is so 124 00:04:52,440 --> 00:04:54,960 Speaker 7: other than he had an ankle and get an MRI 125 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,120 Speaker 7: and look at it tomorrow like we do normally. 126 00:04:57,240 --> 00:05:00,000 Speaker 8: We'll find out more later in the day tomorrow. 127 00:05:00,800 --> 00:05:03,160 Speaker 7: So there's a long list of people that got injured 128 00:05:03,400 --> 00:05:08,000 Speaker 7: or had some type of injury one, two, three, four, five, six, seven. 129 00:05:08,040 --> 00:05:08,839 Speaker 8: It's a lot of people. 130 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:14,720 Speaker 7: Ankle, Yeah, I mean, well, I don't I'm in terms 131 00:05:14,720 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 7: of the injuries then, I don't know.

He needed it. 140 00:05:38,400 --> 00:05:42,400 Speaker 9: You h you're waiting for John running to get back anyway, 141 00:05:42,400 --> 00:05:44,880 Speaker 9: because try to get your lying on the field together. 142 00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:45,720 Speaker 6: Now you're kind of. 143 00:05:46,240 --> 00:05:46,839 Speaker 8: Well, we'll see. 144 00:05:46,880 --> 00:05:48,719 Speaker 7: I mean, maybe it's just as I mean, we don't 145 00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,320 Speaker 7: know what it is yet, so we'll see how it goes. 146 00:05:51,080 --> 00:05:53,000 Speaker 6: How important is it for you to make sure you 147 00:05:53,080 --> 00:05:56,599 Speaker 6: get those guys as a group on the field at 148 00:05:56,680 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 6: least once straight that you haven't. 149 00:05:58,440 --> 00:06:01,000 Speaker 8: I haven't had them yet. Yeah, it'd be nice to. 150 00:06:04,279 --> 00:06:07,120 Speaker 6: Play any of the got picks. 151 00:06:08,360 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 8: Yeah, I mean one, I think we practiced the right way. 152 00:06:14,000 --> 00:06:16,160 Speaker 7: We have one hundred and forty one hundred and forty 153 00:06:16,160 --> 00:06:19,320 Speaker 7: plus snaps of more team reps in pads than we 154 00:06:19,360 --> 00:06:22,040 Speaker 7: did the year before. We had over five hundred more 155 00:06:22,040 --> 00:06:26,560 Speaker 7: team reps when you include OTAs and training camp than 156 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:28,760 Speaker 7: we did the year before. So in terms of the 157 00:06:28,760 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 7: plan and then the preparation, plus we practice against two teams. 158 00:06:33,960 --> 00:06:35,839 Speaker 7: So that was the reasoning Dan. 159 00:06:39,279 --> 00:06:41,120 Speaker 6: Tommy today. 160 00:06:41,200 --> 00:06:43,840 Speaker 7: Yeah, go back and go back and watch it, Go 161 00:06:43,880 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 7: back and watch it. 162 00:06:44,560 --> 00:06:45,240 Speaker 8: He competitor. 163 00:06:46,720 --> 00:06:49,760 Speaker 9: I don't like Cloyd do anything from himself with sixteen 164 00:06:49,839 --> 00:06:50,599 Speaker 9: tackles or. 165 00:06:50,800 --> 00:06:51,680 Speaker 10: That he was active. 166 00:06:51,960 --> 00:06:52,239 Speaker 1: Yeah. 167 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,719 Speaker 7: Again, there's a lot of discussions we need to have 168 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,719 Speaker 7: tonight and over the next couple of days. 169 00:06:57,720 --> 00:06:58,680 Speaker 8: We've had a bunch of them. 170 00:06:59,160 --> 00:07:01,560 Speaker 7: But certainly, when when guys play well, you go ahead 171 00:07:01,560 --> 00:07:03,880 Speaker 7: and reevaluate and make sure you're doing the right thing. 172 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:06,760 Speaker 8: You know.

He needs it, 178 00:07:19,960 --> 00:07:22,240 Speaker 7: you know, offensive lineman you need to lean on. People 179 00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:24,240 Speaker 7: need to pass block, they need to run blocked, They 180 00:07:24,280 --> 00:07:27,040 Speaker 7: need to be in the trenches.

An interesting point that 256 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,000 Speaker 2: Evan Neil was gonna come out of the game at 257 00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:22,800 Speaker 2: that point anyway, despite the ankle. They're gonna do some 258 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:24,840 Speaker 2: testing on John Michael Schmidz. I'm sure they'll do tests 259 00:10:24,840 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 2: on Evan Neil as well.

It goes to the pounds 270 00:10:54,000 --> 00:10:56,480 Speaker 9: a first down to the twenty nine yard line a 271 00:10:56,640 --> 00:11:00,360 Speaker 9: sixteen yard run for Tommy DeVito. 272 00:11:01,760 --> 00:11:04,959 Speaker 2: That Tommy DeVito run was part of a fourteen play 273 00:11:05,160 --> 00:11:08,480 Speaker 2: sixty five yard drive that set up the Giant second 274 00:11:08,520 --> 00:11:11,319 Speaker 2: field goal to cut the lead to ten to six. 275 00:11:11,920 --> 00:11:14,560 Speaker 2: That was tonight's scoring drive of the game. Brought to 276 00:11:14,559 --> 00:11:17,680 Speaker 2: you by Citizens, the official bank of the New York Giants. 277 00:11:17,720 --> 00:11:22,679 Speaker 2: Citizens is made ready for Giant fans. We'll have more 278 00:11:22,920 --> 00:11:24,840 Speaker 2: sound and interviews from the locker room and just a 279 00:11:24,840 --> 00:11:27,679 Speaker 2: little bit jac your takeaways from coach tables presser. 280 00:11:28,640 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 3: He talked about a little bit of Evan Neil talked 281 00:11:30,520 --> 00:11:32,400 Speaker 3: about like you don't give us too much. 282 00:11:32,520 --> 00:11:34,679 Speaker 4: You already know that with him, but. 283 00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,000 Speaker 1: No comments on roster construction or anything. 284 00:11:37,040 --> 00:11:39,640 Speaker 3: Well, yeah, so he kept it pretty pretty vanilla. He 285 00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:41,840 Speaker 3: don't really know too much about the injuries that happened, 286 00:11:42,520 --> 00:11:44,720 Speaker 3: but we know we're all gonna be paying attention to 287 00:11:44,720 --> 00:11:46,560 Speaker 3: that to see what's going on with I guess the 288 00:11:46,600 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 3: main two were talking about Evan Neil and John Michael Smith's. 289 00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,360 Speaker 3: But he didn't really give us too much, you know. 290 00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:54,480 Speaker 3: And just now on that that little drive that that 291 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,079 Speaker 3: the Giants had for the second field goal that they 292 00:11:57,080 --> 00:11:59,400 Speaker 3: had that was also a drive with Tommy devidog got 293 00:11:59,400 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 3: sacked earlier drive and he responded, and you know, I 294 00:12:02,640 --> 00:12:04,720 Speaker 3: love me some Tommy DeVito man, a Jersey guy. 295 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:06,120 Speaker 4: You know, he for me. 296 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:09,160 Speaker 3: Like he may be limited in athletic ability, he may 297 00:12:09,200 --> 00:12:11,800 Speaker 3: be limited in what you think a quarterback really is, 298 00:12:11,800 --> 00:12:14,960 Speaker 3: but he goes out there every single time and he competes. 299 00:12:15,160 --> 00:12:17,000 Speaker 3: There's no quit in him. And that's why I like 300 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:18,720 Speaker 3: about it. And I think the other guys on the team, 301 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:21,080 Speaker 3: they rally around him, and that's what the team needs. 302 00:12:21,080 --> 00:12:23,120 Speaker 3: The team needs a whole bunch of Tommy DeVito's with 303 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:24,360 Speaker 3: that type of mentality. 304 00:12:24,559 --> 00:12:27,280 Speaker 2: I didn't take much out of Brian Dable deciding not 305 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:30,000 Speaker 2: to answer the question about whether or not DeVito was 306 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:32,120 Speaker 2: gonna make the final fifty three. I just don't feel 307 00:12:32,120 --> 00:12:34,520 Speaker 2: like he wanted to comment on anyone's chances of making 308 00:12:34,520 --> 00:12:37,720 Speaker 2: the roster so as to not include or disclude anybody. 309 00:12:37,840 --> 00:12:40,240 Speaker 3: Yeah yeah, but you know me, I'm all Tommy DeVito 310 00:12:40,280 --> 00:12:43,520 Speaker 3: all the way. But this is the thing, nobody actually 311 00:12:43,559 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 3: truly knows exactly what's happening, because they need to figure 312 00:12:46,240 --> 00:12:48,240 Speaker 3: out what's going on with those two guys that are 313 00:12:48,280 --> 00:12:50,600 Speaker 3: definitely on the roster when you talk about a John 314 00:12:50,640 --> 00:12:53,400 Speaker 3: Michael Smich and Evan Neil, and then also what are 315 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:55,520 Speaker 3: they gonna do moving forward, because I think there's a 316 00:12:55,520 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 3: couple of guys right now that's kind of on that bubble, 317 00:12:57,920 --> 00:12:59,720 Speaker 3: you know, the last two or three guys to really 318 00:12:59,800 --> 00:13:02,400 Speaker 3: rhyme that fifty three man roster, and they have to 319 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,520 Speaker 3: figure out exactly what they see from today those guys. 320 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:07,120 Speaker 3: Did they make a case for them or does it 321 00:13:07,160 --> 00:13:09,200 Speaker 3: somebody else that they want to bring in that's not 322 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:10,800 Speaker 3: playing on this field tonight. 323 00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,640 Speaker 1: Yeah, swing tackle, I think is interesting. 324 00:13:12,720 --> 00:13:14,160 Speaker 2: Right we were trying to figure out who the swing 325 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:17,079 Speaker 2: tackle is going to be behind Andrew Thomas and Jermaine Luminar, 326 00:13:17,559 --> 00:13:20,280 Speaker 2: and we add one of those players hurt his ankle today. Again, 327 00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,599 Speaker 2: we'll see what Evan Neil's status is and whether or 328 00:13:22,640 --> 00:13:24,640 Speaker 2: not it's serious. It doesn't sound like it is based 329 00:13:24,679 --> 00:13:26,839 Speaker 2: on the way Brian Dable talked about it. Josh A 330 00:13:26,960 --> 00:13:29,360 Speaker 2: Zudu gave him a couple of sacks, Joshua Miles gave 331 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:30,400 Speaker 2: up a couple of sacks. 332 00:13:30,480 --> 00:13:32,640 Speaker 1: Matt Nelson gave up a couple of sacks. 333 00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:36,520 Speaker 2: So none of those guys at the backup tackle spot 334 00:13:36,640 --> 00:13:40,720 Speaker 2: really stood out against Frankly Jet third stringers and second stringers, 335 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,520 Speaker 2: mostly third stringers over the course of this game. Jac 336 00:13:44,720 --> 00:13:47,320 Speaker 2: what are your thoughts about the depth at that spot, 337 00:13:47,360 --> 00:13:50,720 Speaker 2: whereas we saw last year, you want to have depth 338 00:13:50,760 --> 00:13:51,600 Speaker 2: on the offensive one. 339 00:13:51,720 --> 00:13:54,559 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly, And like I said, it really depends on 340 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:58,000 Speaker 3: Evan Neil's health health because he is the third tackle 341 00:13:58,040 --> 00:14:00,920 Speaker 3: as of right now, and I think that you might 342 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:03,880 Speaker 3: have to look elsewhere in terms of what's going on 343 00:14:03,920 --> 00:14:06,920 Speaker 3: around the league. You know, I think the Giants suffered 344 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,120 Speaker 3: dearly last year when they you know, Andrew Thomas basically 345 00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:12,400 Speaker 3: went down Week one, Evanie was kind of even in 346 00:14:12,400 --> 00:14:14,760 Speaker 3: and out the lineup, and it was a big carousel 347 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 3: up on the offensive line throughout the whole entire season. 348 00:14:17,720 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: And I don't I know Dave Ball and Joe Shane 349 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,160 Speaker 3: they do not want them problems this year, so they 350 00:14:22,240 --> 00:14:24,600 Speaker 3: might have to look elsewhere because I don't think the 351 00:14:24,600 --> 00:14:26,440 Speaker 3: guys that you name made a good case for them 352 00:14:26,480 --> 00:14:27,600 Speaker 3: to make that roster today. 353 00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:30,000 Speaker 2: Easiest way to short circuit of season has to have 354 00:14:30,080 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 2: an unplayable offensive line. That's kind of what happened by 355 00:14:33,160 --> 00:14:36,680 Speaker 2: Frankly Week two or three of that Giants team last year. 356 00:14:36,760 --> 00:14:39,160 Speaker 2: Tonight's statistics are brought to you by the Archdiocese of 357 00:14:39,200 --> 00:14:43,440 Speaker 2: New York.

The middle of this game 364 00:14:59,440 --> 00:15:00,760 Speaker 1: was mostly stuff coming off of the edge. 365 00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:02,920 Speaker 2: He did run the ball five times for forty eight 366 00:15:03,000 --> 00:15:05,840 Speaker 2: yards again slid just showed up a first down again 367 00:15:06,440 --> 00:15:08,040 Speaker 2: for the second and the second straight week. 368 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:10,040 Speaker 1: Or maybe that was week one.

Isaiah McKenzie had three punt returns 382 00:15:51,800 --> 00:15:53,560 Speaker 2: for eleven yards in this game. The Jets were just 383 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:54,960 Speaker 2: kicking the ball out of the back of the end 384 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,360 Speaker 2: z and they weren't messing around with that. The Giants 385 00:15:57,400 --> 00:15:59,880 Speaker 2: did fumble at three times, with one loss. That was 386 00:16:00,000 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 2: the opening kickoff to Airizante, who did fumble it and 387 00:16:03,360 --> 00:16:06,840 Speaker 2: the Jets recovered it, and Isaiah McKenzie had a muff 388 00:16:06,920 --> 00:16:10,160 Speaker 2: punt which the Giants did manage to recover.

The Giants just three 392 00:16:19,440 --> 00:16:23,560 Speaker 2: penalties for twenty five yards. That's a good number. That 393 00:16:23,800 --> 00:16:26,440 Speaker 2: is very low that I'm sure the Giants were pretty 394 00:16:26,440 --> 00:16:28,840 Speaker 2: happy about. For the Jets, they ran the ball particularly 395 00:16:28,880 --> 00:16:30,880 Speaker 2: well in this game. One hundred and thirty five total yards, 396 00:16:30,920 --> 00:16:34,520 Speaker 2: including eighty three for Isuela Banacanda I was including a 397 00:16:34,600 --> 00:16:38,680 Speaker 2: forty five yard touchdown, and then Valde the receiver six 398 00:16:38,760 --> 00:16:40,480 Speaker 2: catches sixty two yards to lead the way there and 399 00:16:40,480 --> 00:16:44,320 Speaker 2: then catches for twenty nine yards.

Want to ask you 402 00:16:51,080 --> 00:16:54,240 Speaker 2: about Isaiah mackenzie on special teams JC with the injury 403 00:16:54,240 --> 00:16:55,200 Speaker 2: to gunaal Chevski. 404 00:16:55,760 --> 00:17:00,760 Speaker 1: The feeling is that sinched up. Maybe might be, but. 405 00:17:00,760 --> 00:17:02,800 Speaker 2: We felt he was certainly the leader in the clubhouse 406 00:17:02,800 --> 00:17:06,800 Speaker 2: to be your returner once the regular season started. But 407 00:17:06,920 --> 00:17:09,840 Speaker 2: you had would you call a fireplay on a punt 408 00:17:09,880 --> 00:17:13,560 Speaker 2: catch where he scrambles, scramble and the ball still hit 409 00:17:13,600 --> 00:17:15,600 Speaker 2: off Brice Ford. We we don't know whether or not 410 00:17:15,600 --> 00:17:17,680 Speaker 2: he communicated that properly or not. There's no way for 411 00:17:17,760 --> 00:17:19,840 Speaker 2: us and it went out down there listening, but it 412 00:17:19,880 --> 00:17:22,680 Speaker 2: was still a fumble on a punt hitting off the 413 00:17:22,760 --> 00:17:24,880 Speaker 2: return player's leg. 414 00:17:25,280 --> 00:17:27,000 Speaker 1: He was one of the hold up gunner players. 415 00:17:27,400 --> 00:17:30,520 Speaker 2: And then he also muffed the punt that landed around 416 00:17:30,560 --> 00:17:32,320 Speaker 2: the ten yard line on the right side of the field. 417 00:17:32,560 --> 00:17:35,280 Speaker 2: So for a guy that's a veteran that's supposed to 418 00:17:35,320 --> 00:17:37,720 Speaker 2: be shorthanded, didn't love the fact we saw some of 419 00:17:37,720 --> 00:17:39,160 Speaker 2: those issues on punts. 420 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,000 Speaker 3: Yeah, and you know, due to the Giant's history the 421 00:17:42,080 --> 00:17:45,160 Speaker 3: last two years with punt returns, I mean, we've been here, 422 00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 3: like what is going on. We've seen multiple guys get 423 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,480 Speaker 3: the job and it really wasn't short up until Gunnarshewski 424 00:17:51,840 --> 00:17:54,679 Speaker 3: took over that role and with him being down, you know, 425 00:17:54,840 --> 00:17:57,560 Speaker 3: Mackenzie was the guy that was, you know, the incoming 426 00:17:57,600 --> 00:17:59,879 Speaker 3: guy that's like, hey, you're going to be the returner, 427 00:18:00,440 --> 00:18:04,280 Speaker 3: which is huge now that kick return is back. Now, 428 00:18:04,680 --> 00:18:07,160 Speaker 3: punt return is always one of the most important plays 429 00:18:07,160 --> 00:18:09,400 Speaker 3: because punt is on the other side of that and 430 00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:12,119 Speaker 3: he muffed one, literally one dropped on the floor in 431 00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:14,159 Speaker 3: the second one kind of babbled it too, So I 432 00:18:14,200 --> 00:18:16,320 Speaker 3: don't think he made a great case for him being 433 00:18:16,359 --> 00:18:20,359 Speaker 3: a primary returner, which the Giants pretty much need, especially 434 00:18:20,400 --> 00:18:22,280 Speaker 3: if Gunner is going to be out. Who knows how 435 00:18:22,320 --> 00:18:23,919 Speaker 3: long he's actually gonna be out. 436 00:18:23,800 --> 00:18:26,920 Speaker 2: For Giants TV presented by Bob's Discount Furniture, is the 437 00:18:26,960 --> 00:18:29,400 Speaker 2: official Connected TV app and the New York Giants, available 438 00:18:29,400 --> 00:18:32,080 Speaker 2: for free now on Apple TV, Roku, Amazon Fire TV, 439 00:18:32,560 --> 00:18:35,480 Speaker 2: and inside the Giants Mobile app. Stream game highlights, interviews, 440 00:18:35,520 --> 00:18:39,399 Speaker 2: TV shows, and more exclusive video content with Giants TV. 441 00:18:39,520 --> 00:18:41,960 Speaker 1: We'll come back.

He 502 00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:05,399 Speaker 2: had the one bad play getting beat on the speed 503 00:21:05,440 --> 00:21:07,240 Speaker 2: rush outside. He said it was a bad set. The 504 00:21:07,240 --> 00:21:09,520 Speaker 2: fact that he knows technically what he did wrong already 505 00:21:09,520 --> 00:21:12,240 Speaker 2: on that play. That makes me feel good about it. 506 00:21:12,240 --> 00:21:13,760 Speaker 2: At least you know what you need to correct. Obviously, 507 00:21:13,760 --> 00:21:16,119 Speaker 2: you would rather have that happened to begin with, but 508 00:21:16,200 --> 00:21:17,919 Speaker 2: it was good to see him out there getting some 509 00:21:17,960 --> 00:21:20,360 Speaker 2: game action for the first time since that ankle surgery 510 00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:22,520 Speaker 2: and fracturing his ankle late last year. 511 00:21:22,600 --> 00:21:24,520 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean, and the Giants need him, you know, 512 00:21:24,640 --> 00:21:27,000 Speaker 3: the Giants need Evan Neil. You know, maybe he's not 513 00:21:27,160 --> 00:21:29,639 Speaker 3: at you know, listed as a starter right now, but 514 00:21:29,760 --> 00:21:31,720 Speaker 3: you never know what happens, you know, and knock on wood. 515 00:21:31,720 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 3: I hope nobody gets hurt, but that's just the NFL man, 516 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:36,399 Speaker 3: you know, And last year we've seen a lot of 517 00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:38,639 Speaker 3: guys go down among the offensive line. And you know, 518 00:21:38,800 --> 00:21:41,840 Speaker 3: if he's a guy that's that reserve swing tackle, I mean, 519 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:44,600 Speaker 3: he's the first guy up, but either tackle go down, 520 00:21:45,160 --> 00:21:47,960 Speaker 3: and the Giants need a swing tackle. The Giants need 521 00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:50,880 Speaker 3: six to seven offensive lineman every single game. That's gonna 522 00:21:50,880 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 3: get valid playing time every single game, not just for reserve. 523 00:21:55,040 --> 00:21:57,840 Speaker 3: If somebody gets hurt, No, they're gonna rotate those guys in. 524 00:21:57,920 --> 00:22:00,760 Speaker 3: They're gonna go tackle over, They're gonna go tackle in 525 00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:02,800 Speaker 3: instead of a tight end. They do those things on 526 00:22:02,840 --> 00:22:06,000 Speaker 3: a consistent basis, so they Giants need Evanue to be healthy. 527 00:22:06,200 --> 00:22:08,840 Speaker 3: I'm glad he was out there today, but I'm definitely 528 00:22:08,880 --> 00:22:11,320 Speaker 3: not glad that he didn't end the game, you know, 529 00:22:11,800 --> 00:22:13,960 Speaker 3: like because of the play count that was but he 530 00:22:14,040 --> 00:22:15,680 Speaker 3: was supposed to be out because of a play count, 531 00:22:15,720 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 3: but he got out because of injury. But at the 532 00:22:17,640 --> 00:22:20,679 Speaker 3: same time, we're seeing him walking around. That's good news 533 00:22:20,920 --> 00:22:22,800 Speaker 3: because if he really had a serious injury, he would 534 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:24,280 Speaker 3: not be walking around the sideline or. 535 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,600 Speaker 2: Doing interviews after the game for that indeed, so he 536 00:22:26,640 --> 00:22:29,200 Speaker 2: said he feels okay, they'll get skins done tomorrow. Same 537 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:31,400 Speaker 2: deal with John Michael Schmitzen. We'll see where those two 538 00:22:31,400 --> 00:22:34,960 Speaker 2: guys are. But again they were both standing with sneakers 539 00:22:34,960 --> 00:22:35,840 Speaker 2: on the entire. 540 00:22:35,680 --> 00:22:36,560 Speaker 4: Second moving around. 541 00:22:36,880 --> 00:22:38,879 Speaker 1: Ye raps, no ice, nothing like that. 542 00:22:39,040 --> 00:22:42,440 Speaker 2: So certainly good to see the quarterbacks that those two 543 00:22:42,440 --> 00:22:44,600 Speaker 2: guys will help protect, including Tommy DeVito. 544 00:22:45,200 --> 00:22:46,880 Speaker 1: He was in the locker om after the game as well. 545 00:22:47,000 --> 00:22:49,520 Speaker 6: At the locker of Tommy DeVito. Tommy, you got to 546 00:22:49,520 --> 00:22:50,719 Speaker 6: play a whole game tonight. 547 00:22:50,840 --> 00:22:51,800 Speaker 4: I'm sure you're going in. 548 00:22:51,880 --> 00:22:53,639 Speaker 6: You kind of thought that might be the case. 549 00:22:54,119 --> 00:22:56,720 Speaker 4: You will be, so get one. No ups and downstair 550 00:22:56,720 --> 00:22:56,959 Speaker 4: at all. 551 00:22:57,000 --> 00:23:00,159 Speaker 12: Obviously she was finished off the tun to drive the 552 00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:02,240 Speaker 12: wh could have a chance to win the game there. 553 00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:04,000 Speaker 12: But there are a lot of good things, a lot 554 00:23:04,000 --> 00:23:05,480 Speaker 12: of growing that can be made from this. You know, 555 00:23:05,480 --> 00:23:07,359 Speaker 12: there's a lot of guys in and now all of 556 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:09,520 Speaker 12: the fields at all times, so you know, it's getting 557 00:23:09,520 --> 00:23:11,359 Speaker 12: a rhythm, getting a feel for everybody, and then continue 558 00:23:11,400 --> 00:23:13,720 Speaker 12: to go all there. But overall, I thought that we 559 00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:15,119 Speaker 12: did a good job fighting up until the end. 560 00:23:15,440 --> 00:23:16,840 Speaker 6: When you're too tall fifty get in here and you 561 00:23:16,920 --> 00:23:18,399 Speaker 6: knew was close. 562 00:23:18,480 --> 00:23:21,600 Speaker 4: I guess right, he's thinking, you've had enough daylight to 563 00:23:21,600 --> 00:23:23,080 Speaker 4: get it. Yeah, it's gonna be tight. 564 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,439 Speaker 12: Thot of squeeze there there that ball when I went 565 00:23:28,480 --> 00:23:30,159 Speaker 12: into the third tier in the stadium. 566 00:23:30,200 --> 00:23:34,000 Speaker 4: But sometimes coming short, you gotta make a next sim. 567 00:23:35,520 --> 00:23:37,680 Speaker 2: I guess Tommy talking about one of his runs, maybe 568 00:23:37,680 --> 00:23:39,800 Speaker 2: that last run he thought he could run for a touchdown. 569 00:23:39,840 --> 00:23:41,719 Speaker 2: He kind of got, you know, snagged by the one 570 00:23:41,880 --> 00:23:45,000 Speaker 2: arm there to end that final drive a little prematrolly chasing. 571 00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 3: Yeah, it's so funny listening to him talk. Man, He's 572 00:23:47,840 --> 00:23:50,440 Speaker 3: so confident, and I love it, you know, me sitting 573 00:23:50,440 --> 00:23:55,680 Speaker 3: there like you know why it's so hard to play 574 00:23:55,680 --> 00:23:58,000 Speaker 3: on this now, it really is. And at that position, 575 00:23:58,520 --> 00:24:00,800 Speaker 3: you know, with the you know, he got thrust it 576 00:24:00,840 --> 00:24:04,159 Speaker 3: into the spotlight. You know, he's living his dream and 577 00:24:04,200 --> 00:24:06,960 Speaker 3: he just took it in stride like I've never seen it. 578 00:24:06,960 --> 00:24:10,080 Speaker 3: He doesn't look like he's nervous. Like I said, he's 579 00:24:10,160 --> 00:24:12,200 Speaker 3: not the greatest. He's not Eli Manning, you know what 580 00:24:12,240 --> 00:24:14,639 Speaker 3: I mean. He's not a Hall of Fame type of 581 00:24:14,680 --> 00:24:17,320 Speaker 3: caliber of a quarterback right now. I'm not saying he 582 00:24:17,359 --> 00:24:19,679 Speaker 3: will be. But the kid goes out there and just 583 00:24:19,800 --> 00:24:23,080 Speaker 3: plays ball. You know, sometimes it's stacked up against him. 584 00:24:23,200 --> 00:24:25,199 Speaker 3: Watch him do it last year, watch him do it 585 00:24:25,200 --> 00:24:28,159 Speaker 3: today where he got sacked eight times, and he still 586 00:24:28,680 --> 00:24:31,040 Speaker 3: was there at the fourth quarter trying to get the 587 00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:34,240 Speaker 3: ball down the field using his legs, using his you know, 588 00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:38,719 Speaker 3: the passing game as well. I think the kid has talent, 589 00:24:38,920 --> 00:24:41,760 Speaker 3: but he has the heart to be on a roster, 590 00:24:42,240 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 3: and I hope it's here. We don't know, you know, 591 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:47,360 Speaker 3: Dave Ball didn't really give us too much about it. 592 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,040 Speaker 3: I really hope that he can stick around the NFL 593 00:24:50,080 --> 00:24:52,240 Speaker 3: because he will get better as a quarterback, and he 594 00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:54,200 Speaker 3: will get better as a player, and he will get 595 00:24:54,200 --> 00:24:56,919 Speaker 3: better as a man being in this league, because this 596 00:24:56,960 --> 00:24:58,600 Speaker 3: is a great league. It's so hard to be here 597 00:24:58,840 --> 00:25:01,440 Speaker 3: and I just love to going out.

Guys that were a short roster spots 634 00:26:38,880 --> 00:26:42,480 Speaker 2: more than forty players for the Giants were not ready 635 00:26:42,480 --> 00:26:44,160 Speaker 2: too well, they shouldn't say ready to play. They weren't 636 00:26:44,160 --> 00:26:46,440 Speaker 2: pass on the sideline, but they were not. The plan 637 00:26:46,560 --> 00:26:48,800 Speaker 2: was not to play over forty players today, whether it 638 00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:50,719 Speaker 2: was because of coaches decision or injury. 639 00:26:50,920 --> 00:26:53,840 Speaker 3: I do like that everybody was shooted up, though, why 640 00:26:53,840 --> 00:26:57,080 Speaker 3: does that matter because it seems like everybody's ready to go. 641 00:26:57,520 --> 00:27:00,000 Speaker 3: You know, we're all in together. You know, even though 642 00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:02,200 Speaker 3: I'm not playing as a starter, you know, I'm still 643 00:27:02,240 --> 00:27:03,560 Speaker 3: watching my guy. I'm supporting him. 644 00:27:03,600 --> 00:27:05,880 Speaker 1: Don't mean it's some padsy where I'm up here doing broadcast. 645 00:27:05,880 --> 00:27:06,680 Speaker 1: Would that make it happen? 646 00:27:06,800 --> 00:27:08,240 Speaker 4: No, Listen, I. 647 00:27:08,160 --> 00:27:10,919 Speaker 3: Would love to be on the sideline and I'm not playing, 648 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:13,359 Speaker 3: not in my pads because it's not comfortable. You know, 649 00:27:13,440 --> 00:27:15,199 Speaker 3: they're just sitting in your pads the whole time. But 650 00:27:15,720 --> 00:27:18,120 Speaker 3: it shows unity. It shows you know that the team 651 00:27:18,240 --> 00:27:20,879 Speaker 3: is together, you know, not saying like the Jets are 652 00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:23,119 Speaker 3: wrong for doing what they were doing, but all of 653 00:27:23,119 --> 00:27:25,440 Speaker 3: their starters they were in street clothes. You know, they 654 00:27:25,440 --> 00:27:27,720 Speaker 3: had no chance of getting in, you know, not that 655 00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:30,439 Speaker 3: the guys that he slated not to play that they 656 00:27:30,480 --> 00:27:32,760 Speaker 3: were going to play, but there were guys that were ready. 657 00:27:32,760 --> 00:27:34,679 Speaker 3: I mean, Tyrod was dressed up over there just in 658 00:27:34,680 --> 00:27:37,119 Speaker 3: case something happened to one of their couple quarterbacks that 659 00:27:37,200 --> 00:27:40,400 Speaker 3: was playing today, because you know, anything happens, it's the NFL. 660 00:27:40,680 --> 00:27:44,560 Speaker 1: And they had five quarterbacks, by the way, right now. 661 00:27:44,600 --> 00:27:46,359 Speaker 1: One of them was Jordan Travis used to come back 662 00:27:46,400 --> 00:27:47,200 Speaker 1: from injury. 663 00:27:46,920 --> 00:27:49,720 Speaker 4: But still ill. A lot of quarterbacks, it is. 664 00:27:50,640 --> 00:27:51,600 Speaker 1: I thought that was funny. 665 00:27:51,800 --> 00:27:53,720 Speaker 2: All right, guys were up with the phone lines here 666 00:27:53,840 --> 00:27:57,080 Speaker 2: eight eight eight eight oh eight one zero one nine 667 00:27:57,200 --> 00:27:59,840 Speaker 2: eight eight eight eight oh eight one zero one nine. 668 00:27:59,840 --> 00:28:01,119 Speaker 1: I'm going to mess that up. 669 00:28:01,119 --> 00:28:02,800 Speaker 2: I'm still thinking of the old seven to eight nine 670 00:28:02,840 --> 00:28:05,280 Speaker 2: three seven sixty six sixty six number from like fifteen 671 00:28:05,359 --> 00:28:05,800 Speaker 2: years ago. 672 00:28:06,720 --> 00:28:10,360 Speaker 1: Eight oh eight one zero one nine. 673 00:28:10,480 --> 00:28:13,040 Speaker 2: Will take your calls as we get ready for the 674 00:28:13,040 --> 00:28:14,440 Speaker 2: regular season JC, which. 675 00:28:14,320 --> 00:28:16,240 Speaker 1: Kicks off in just fifteen days. 676 00:28:16,280 --> 00:28:19,600 Speaker 2: The Giants and Vikings right here one o'clock MetLife Stadium, 677 00:28:19,800 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 2: the culmination of a weekend of celebration for the Giants 678 00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:24,800 Speaker 2: one hundred season. 679 00:28:25,880 --> 00:28:27,600 Speaker 1: The Vikings will be starting Sam. 680 00:28:27,440 --> 00:28:29,879 Speaker 2: Donald, a quarterback JJ McCarthy, who, by the way, I 681 00:28:29,880 --> 00:28:31,880 Speaker 2: don't think was going to start in Week one anyway. 682 00:28:32,640 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 2: He's out for the Aery tourres Meniscus. So Sam Donald 683 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:38,320 Speaker 2: will get the start. And when we look at the Vikings, 684 00:28:38,640 --> 00:28:41,800 Speaker 2: they have a very talented offensive group. We'll see about 685 00:28:41,840 --> 00:28:44,120 Speaker 2: Jordan Addison. He's had them off the field stuff. I 686 00:28:44,120 --> 00:28:46,320 Speaker 2: don't think his suspension has come down, unless something's happened 687 00:28:46,320 --> 00:28:48,120 Speaker 2: in the last hour or so that I haven't unnoticed. 688 00:28:48,560 --> 00:28:50,800 Speaker 2: But you're gonna have Jordan Addison and Justin Jefferson a 689 00:28:50,840 --> 00:28:51,320 Speaker 2: wide receiver. 690 00:28:51,400 --> 00:28:51,640 Speaker 10: TJ. 691 00:28:51,760 --> 00:28:53,880 Speaker 2: Hockinson is still not back from that knee injury he 692 00:28:53,920 --> 00:28:57,120 Speaker 2: suffered late last year. But they have a good offensive line. 693 00:28:57,160 --> 00:28:59,280 Speaker 2: We know Justin Jefferson might be the best wide receiver 694 00:28:59,360 --> 00:28:59,880 Speaker 2: in football. 695 00:29:00,440 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: So their offense is. 696 00:29:01,360 --> 00:29:04,720 Speaker 2: Going to be a very early challenge for this Giant 697 00:29:04,760 --> 00:29:06,320 Speaker 2: secondary because like I said, they got a pretty good 698 00:29:06,360 --> 00:29:06,840 Speaker 2: offensive line. 699 00:29:06,840 --> 00:29:08,120 Speaker 1: You're not gonna get you. 700 00:29:08,080 --> 00:29:12,360 Speaker 2: Know, pressure all day every play on that quarterback with 701 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,120 Speaker 2: their offensive line. So it'll be a good challenge early 702 00:29:15,160 --> 00:29:17,000 Speaker 2: on for this Giants young secondary. 703 00:29:17,160 --> 00:29:17,840 Speaker 4: Yeah. Absolutely. 704 00:29:17,920 --> 00:29:19,600 Speaker 3: I mean you talk about one of the better, if 705 00:29:19,640 --> 00:29:22,120 Speaker 3: not the best receiver in the league and Justin Jefferson, 706 00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:24,480 Speaker 3: and they will get him the ball. You know, he's 707 00:29:24,480 --> 00:29:26,600 Speaker 3: a guy that gets open, you know, no matter who's 708 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:28,440 Speaker 3: playing him in the corner. Like a lot of these 709 00:29:28,480 --> 00:29:30,960 Speaker 3: receivers are coming in nowadays, these young receivers are coming 710 00:29:31,000 --> 00:29:33,120 Speaker 3: and ready, and that's what we're seeing from neighbors. You know, 711 00:29:33,160 --> 00:29:35,720 Speaker 3: It's something with the LSU, the Ohio States of the world, 712 00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:39,240 Speaker 3: they're putting out like and receiver is not an easy 713 00:29:39,240 --> 00:29:41,640 Speaker 3: position to play. Some people think it's easy because you 714 00:29:41,680 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 3: can go ahead and play receiver when you're young. Somebody 715 00:29:44,360 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 3: just throw you the ball. I'm a wide receiver. I 716 00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 3: catch the football. That's not how the NFL is. You 717 00:29:49,320 --> 00:29:52,120 Speaker 3: have to adjust routes on to go. Some people just 718 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:56,160 Speaker 3: cannot process information that quickly. But this guy, Justin Jefferson, 719 00:29:56,240 --> 00:29:58,200 Speaker 3: he's been doing it every single year that he's been 720 00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:00,600 Speaker 3: in the NFL. And if he's not her, he's out 721 00:30:00,640 --> 00:30:03,160 Speaker 3: there catching ten to twelve passes a game, and he's 722 00:30:03,160 --> 00:30:07,240 Speaker 3: out there putting double double coverage. So the Giants will 723 00:30:07,280 --> 00:30:09,200 Speaker 3: have to have not just a corner, they have to 724 00:30:09,240 --> 00:30:11,880 Speaker 3: have a game plan against a guy like that. And 725 00:30:11,920 --> 00:30:13,959 Speaker 3: I want to see what Bod creates for him, because 726 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,160 Speaker 3: there are special guys in the league that you have 727 00:30:16,240 --> 00:30:19,240 Speaker 3: to account for. Justin Jefferson is that guy. He's that 728 00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,440 Speaker 3: elite player. When you show up to practice Monday, Tuesday, 729 00:30:22,480 --> 00:30:25,200 Speaker 3: whenever that is, you start scouting the team out, he's 730 00:30:25,200 --> 00:30:26,960 Speaker 3: on the board. First, we got to figure out a 731 00:30:26,960 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 3: plane to stop him. So it'd be good to see 732 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:29,560 Speaker 3: what they come up with. 733 00:30:29,680 --> 00:30:32,080 Speaker 2: And I forgot to mention brought in a brand new 734 00:30:32,160 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 2: running back. The Vikings could not run the ball last 735 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,120 Speaker 2: year though Alexander Madison, he ended up stepping in there 736 00:30:38,160 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 2: and being their starter did not work out. Now they've 737 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,160 Speaker 2: Aaron Jones. And when Aaron Jones is healthy, and right 738 00:30:43,160 --> 00:30:44,880 Speaker 2: now he is one hundred percent healthy, that dude is 739 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:45,720 Speaker 2: one of the best running backs. 740 00:30:46,080 --> 00:30:48,440 Speaker 3: Absolutely not a big guy, but he runs hard, run 741 00:30:48,480 --> 00:30:50,840 Speaker 3: behind his pads the receiver. He's been in the league 742 00:30:50,880 --> 00:30:53,040 Speaker 3: for a while, did a lot of great things up 743 00:30:53,120 --> 00:30:56,360 Speaker 3: in Green Bay. So definitely expect them to not only 744 00:30:56,440 --> 00:30:59,320 Speaker 3: just you know, be a running I think run first 745 00:30:59,360 --> 00:31:02,000 Speaker 3: type of team, but then also pass the ball. But 746 00:31:02,040 --> 00:31:05,560 Speaker 3: to protect your quarterback, there's no better thing than having 747 00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:08,240 Speaker 3: a great number one wide receiver, which they have and 748 00:31:08,320 --> 00:31:11,160 Speaker 3: in the great ground game. So I expect the Giants 749 00:31:11,200 --> 00:31:13,360 Speaker 3: to have a heavy load of Aaron Jones and Tdy 750 00:31:13,480 --> 00:31:16,640 Speaker 3: Chandler or whoever else they're giving the ball to. But 751 00:31:16,720 --> 00:31:18,680 Speaker 3: Aaron Jones I got a lot of respect for him. 752 00:31:19,120 --> 00:31:22,120 Speaker 3: I've seen him do some harm to the Giants back 753 00:31:22,160 --> 00:31:24,000 Speaker 3: in the day when he was playing for Green Bay Packers. 754 00:31:24,040 --> 00:31:26,040 Speaker 3: And hopefully that the Giants can come up with a 755 00:31:26,040 --> 00:31:27,680 Speaker 3: good game plan because you got to be able to 756 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:31,320 Speaker 3: stop Justin Jefferson outside. And every single time you walk 757 00:31:31,320 --> 00:31:33,840 Speaker 3: into a defensive meeting room, no matter what game you're playing, 758 00:31:34,080 --> 00:31:38,760 Speaker 3: no matter what type of mythology that the other offense has, 759 00:31:38,920 --> 00:31:41,520 Speaker 3: it's always stopped to run first. So let's see the 760 00:31:41,560 --> 00:31:43,800 Speaker 3: plan that they have to do what they need to 761 00:31:43,800 --> 00:31:45,880 Speaker 3: do against Justin Jefferson, one of the best receivers in 762 00:31:45,920 --> 00:31:48,640 Speaker 3: the league and a really talented running back in Aaron Jones, 763 00:31:48,640 --> 00:31:49,960 Speaker 3: who's gonna get a good amount of carries. 764 00:31:50,080 --> 00:31:52,320 Speaker 2: I know, giant fans are sitting here, they're thinking it's 765 00:31:52,320 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 2: Sam Donald. Come on, guys, the Jets, so did the Panthers, 766 00:31:57,200 --> 00:32:01,360 Speaker 2: seeing ghosts all that stuff. But guys, he was with 767 00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:05,080 Speaker 2: Kyle Shanahan last year. He stayed in the same system, 768 00:32:05,200 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 2: even though he's with a new team in Minnesota and 769 00:32:09,240 --> 00:32:11,960 Speaker 2: maybe not so low key, maybe lowkey for casual fans. 770 00:32:12,360 --> 00:32:14,600 Speaker 2: Kevin O'Connell is one of the best offensive coaches in 771 00:32:14,640 --> 00:32:17,600 Speaker 2: football that dude knows set a scheme of an offense. Again, 772 00:32:17,640 --> 00:32:19,480 Speaker 2: it's the same system that Sam Donald was in the 773 00:32:19,560 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 2: year before in San Francisco with Kyle Shanahan. We didn't 774 00:32:22,280 --> 00:32:25,160 Speaker 2: really get to see him play much. But this could 775 00:32:25,200 --> 00:32:27,800 Speaker 2: be a Sam Donald revival season. Like when we're sitting 776 00:32:27,840 --> 00:32:32,479 Speaker 2: at NFL Awards in what is that February Super Bowl weekend, right, 777 00:32:32,480 --> 00:32:36,040 Speaker 2: second League of February. He could be comeback Player of 778 00:32:36,080 --> 00:32:39,080 Speaker 2: the Year award material this year. So if he can 779 00:32:39,160 --> 00:32:40,560 Speaker 2: just cut down on the picks. We know he has 780 00:32:40,600 --> 00:32:42,400 Speaker 2: the physical ability, he's got the arm, he can run 781 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:45,560 Speaker 2: a little bit, you know, can he get rid of 782 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 2: some of those mental and physical mistakes that have played 783 00:32:47,800 --> 00:32:49,320 Speaker 2: them over the course of his career, like the big 784 00:32:49,360 --> 00:32:53,760 Speaker 2: interceptions things like that. But again, just don't underestimate what 785 00:32:53,800 --> 00:32:56,280 Speaker 2: Donald can do in that offense run by Kevin O'Connell. 786 00:32:56,400 --> 00:32:58,480 Speaker 3: Yeah, but I also don't expect the Vikers go ahead 787 00:32:58,480 --> 00:33:00,160 Speaker 3: and try to pass the ball away him fifty times. 788 00:33:00,440 --> 00:33:02,080 Speaker 3: You know, I think they're gonna try to rely on 789 00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 3: Aaron Jones. They're gonna try to rely on their defense 790 00:33:04,000 --> 00:33:07,320 Speaker 3: and new and improved defense with you know, a potential 791 00:33:07,360 --> 00:33:10,040 Speaker 3: Hall of Famer in Gilmore adding him to the mix 792 00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:12,440 Speaker 3: of the group, and hopefully they can slow teams down 793 00:33:12,520 --> 00:33:14,440 Speaker 3: so they not they don't have to pass the ball 794 00:33:14,480 --> 00:33:16,600 Speaker 3: fifty times a game and get into a throwing match 795 00:33:16,600 --> 00:33:18,880 Speaker 3: where you have to see Sam Donald throw the ball 796 00:33:19,040 --> 00:33:23,200 Speaker 3: effectively downfield the whole second half. Ye Like I said, 797 00:33:23,200 --> 00:33:25,680 Speaker 3: the quarterback's best friend. You got three things I'm mad 798 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,960 Speaker 3: in one, I said two three. Now, you gotta have 799 00:33:29,000 --> 00:33:30,960 Speaker 3: a great wide receiver, a great number one wide receiver, 800 00:33:31,040 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 3: which the Vikens do have. You gotta have a great 801 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:35,680 Speaker 3: down game, great ground game, which is a running back 802 00:33:35,680 --> 00:33:38,280 Speaker 3: included with your offensive lineman, receivers and tight ends. And 803 00:33:38,320 --> 00:33:42,000 Speaker 3: then at defense that slows the game down for the quarterback, 804 00:33:42,360 --> 00:33:44,320 Speaker 3: that makes sure that the quarterback doesn't have to do 805 00:33:44,400 --> 00:33:47,320 Speaker 3: too much, you know. And I think that's the Vikings 806 00:33:47,400 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 3: playing this year because you don't want Sam Donald going 807 00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:51,920 Speaker 3: back to his old ways when he was playing here 808 00:33:52,120 --> 00:33:54,680 Speaker 3: not too long ago, you know. So, like I said, 809 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:56,520 Speaker 3: I'm excited to see the game plan. This is the 810 00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,680 Speaker 3: year where and excuse me, this is the time of 811 00:33:58,680 --> 00:34:00,840 Speaker 3: the year where you're just in tis painting. You know, 812 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:04,160 Speaker 3: rosters are getting set on Tuesday, right, that's the final 813 00:34:04,480 --> 00:34:07,600 Speaker 3: roster cutdowns on Tuesday, So four pm.

One of our 835 00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:56,120 Speaker 2: regulars from Big Blue Kickoff Live is Cliff in Manhattan 836 00:34:56,200 --> 00:35:00,319 Speaker 2: joining us tonight on the WFN Giants Radio Now work 837 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 2: and you guys can join us as well. 838 00:35:02,080 --> 00:35:03,920 Speaker 1: Give us a call. The phone number again is eight 839 00:35:03,960 --> 00:35:06,400 Speaker 1: eight eight eight oh eight one zero one to nine. Cliff, 840 00:35:06,400 --> 00:35:07,240 Speaker 1: what's going on, buddy? 841 00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:11,279 Speaker 11: Hey, guys, thanks for taking the call. The post game 842 00:35:11,320 --> 00:35:12,759 Speaker 11: callers need a preseason two. 843 00:35:12,800 --> 00:35:14,520 Speaker 10: You know, the. 844 00:35:16,719 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 11: Offensive line, you know, it can look discouraging. You see 845 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:22,799 Speaker 11: Tommy DeVito getting sack day times in his usual you know, 846 00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:26,600 Speaker 11: position folded up on the field, there being a punching bag. 847 00:35:26,960 --> 00:35:29,479 Speaker 11: But the big difference from seeing that the last time, 848 00:35:29,520 --> 00:35:31,920 Speaker 11: including when we played the Jets in the regular season, 849 00:35:32,280 --> 00:35:34,080 Speaker 11: is that those aren't the guys that we're going to 850 00:35:34,080 --> 00:35:37,240 Speaker 11: be putting out there, you know, almost none of them. 851 00:35:37,480 --> 00:35:43,640 Speaker 11: And the big difference is that the guys that Joe 852 00:35:43,680 --> 00:35:47,640 Speaker 11: Shane addressed weren't just like new starters. They were new backups, 853 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:50,880 Speaker 11: and they're all veterans, and they're not the old, really 854 00:35:50,960 --> 00:35:53,320 Speaker 11: old veterans. They're veterans that are in the middle of 855 00:35:53,360 --> 00:35:56,799 Speaker 11: their career, not at the end, and so they're really 856 00:35:56,840 --> 00:35:59,919 Speaker 11: still looking pretty solid there. Now. It's discouraging that Evan 857 00:36:00,120 --> 00:36:05,520 Speaker 11: goes out because they it sounds like only four he 858 00:36:05,600 --> 00:36:07,720 Speaker 11: was only going to be in for four more plays anyway, 859 00:36:08,000 --> 00:36:09,960 Speaker 11: and they had it figured out just right how much 860 00:36:10,040 --> 00:36:12,520 Speaker 11: his ankle was ready to be ramped up for so 861 00:36:12,600 --> 00:36:15,279 Speaker 11: hopefully it's not too much of a setback. But but 862 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:17,759 Speaker 11: what that reminds me of is, you know, I've been 863 00:36:17,840 --> 00:36:19,960 Speaker 11: rooting for the three linemen that he drafted in his 864 00:36:20,040 --> 00:36:23,360 Speaker 11: first draft, you know, with with Evan Azudu and McKeithen. 865 00:36:23,760 --> 00:36:26,280 Speaker 11: I'm hope and I'm hoping we can we can strike 866 00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:28,720 Speaker 11: it rich on at least one or two of those guys. 867 00:36:29,200 --> 00:36:31,640 Speaker 11: And I'm hoping that I didn't see mc keithan tonight 868 00:36:31,719 --> 00:36:34,560 Speaker 11: maybe means he's already in and that he's a guard, 869 00:36:34,960 --> 00:36:38,120 Speaker 11: and that maybe is Zudu's problems have to do with 870 00:36:38,640 --> 00:36:42,239 Speaker 11: the experiment of making him the swing tackle and that 871 00:36:42,280 --> 00:36:44,719 Speaker 11: they know he can play guard and maybe even have 872 00:36:44,800 --> 00:36:46,239 Speaker 11: some confidence there. What do you think? 873 00:36:47,960 --> 00:36:50,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, I don't. I don't. It's a good question. 874 00:36:50,200 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 2: I'm not sure if McKeithen played any snap sign Let 875 00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:54,239 Speaker 2: me see if I can check on that. I don't 876 00:36:54,400 --> 00:36:56,440 Speaker 2: now that you mentioned, I don't remember seeing him out 877 00:36:56,440 --> 00:36:57,000 Speaker 2: there either. 878 00:36:58,080 --> 00:36:59,480 Speaker 1: Did McKeithen play any snaps? 879 00:36:59,480 --> 00:37:02,600 Speaker 2: And I know he did not that they didn't tell 880 00:37:02,640 --> 00:37:04,799 Speaker 2: us he wasn't gonna play Marcus mc keithan tonight. I'm 881 00:37:04,800 --> 00:37:07,600 Speaker 2: not sure if a late injury came up or something 882 00:37:07,719 --> 00:37:10,920 Speaker 2: like that, that's interesting. I do not think he is 883 00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:13,600 Speaker 2: guaranteed a roster spot. To be totally honest, that he 884 00:37:13,680 --> 00:37:16,000 Speaker 2: was playing with the third string most of the time 885 00:37:16,040 --> 00:37:18,520 Speaker 2: throughout camp. But yeah, I'm not sure why he wasn't 886 00:37:18,680 --> 00:37:20,319 Speaker 2: why he didn't get any playing time tonight, to be 887 00:37:20,360 --> 00:37:22,400 Speaker 2: honest with it, maybe maybe something got a late injury 888 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:22,759 Speaker 2: came up. 889 00:37:22,840 --> 00:37:24,520 Speaker 1: Cliff, I don't have a great answer for you on that. 890 00:37:25,520 --> 00:37:28,439 Speaker 11: Well, I hope it means that he's still in the mix. 891 00:37:28,520 --> 00:37:30,799 Speaker 11: I want to see one or two or three of 892 00:37:30,800 --> 00:37:33,640 Speaker 11: those guys make it, because when you know, Joe Shan 893 00:37:33,760 --> 00:37:37,000 Speaker 11: comes in with Dable with a great reputation for evaluating 894 00:37:37,040 --> 00:37:40,600 Speaker 11: talent and drafting people and developing people in that position, 895 00:37:41,160 --> 00:37:44,480 Speaker 11: and you know, on the OL and and you know, 896 00:37:44,520 --> 00:37:46,280 Speaker 11: I would like to think that they made some smart 897 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 11: decisions back then. We know from discussion on the on 898 00:37:50,080 --> 00:37:54,680 Speaker 11: BBKL that that everybody in the league would have drafted 899 00:37:54,680 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 11: Evan Neil if they had a chance in the in 900 00:37:57,120 --> 00:37:59,800 Speaker 11: the first round, and so there doesn't seem to be 901 00:37:59,800 --> 00:38:01,560 Speaker 11: any doubt that there was anything wrong with that. But 902 00:38:01,640 --> 00:38:04,920 Speaker 11: I'm really looking for a zudu and mckithan to shine. 903 00:38:05,400 --> 00:38:07,680 Speaker 11: But that's you know, that's really for the longer term, 904 00:38:08,480 --> 00:38:11,399 Speaker 11: for the sustained success over the long period of time, 905 00:38:11,440 --> 00:38:13,480 Speaker 11: where we want to see, you know, the guys that 906 00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:16,520 Speaker 11: you drafted be your offensive lineman that at least one 907 00:38:16,600 --> 00:38:19,400 Speaker 11: or becomes elite, you know, I mean, I guess I 908 00:38:19,400 --> 00:38:21,919 Speaker 11: can wait on that if we can be functional all year, 909 00:38:21,920 --> 00:38:24,680 Speaker 11: which we have every reason to be confident we can be, 910 00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,040 Speaker 11: and that we won't have to see the quarterback sitting 911 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:28,160 Speaker 11: on the ground all the time. 912 00:38:29,120 --> 00:38:33,040 Speaker 2: Quick appreciate the call. Good stuff, guys. Injury report very quick, 913 00:38:33,160 --> 00:38:38,040 Speaker 2: very quickly tonight. It's unfortunately rather lengthy. Timmy Horn I 914 00:38:38,080 --> 00:38:40,279 Speaker 2: think was the first play right left ond of achilles injury. 915 00:38:40,320 --> 00:38:43,440 Speaker 2: At least it was the first drive. Oh Yo Goofo 916 00:38:43,640 --> 00:38:46,400 Speaker 2: had a hamstring injury. Good Rich had a hamstring injury. 917 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:49,000 Speaker 2: John Michael Schmid's had an ankle injury. Evan Neil had 918 00:38:49,000 --> 00:38:52,600 Speaker 2: an ankle injury, Darny Holmes had a neck injury. Jillan Mayfield 919 00:38:52,640 --> 00:38:53,720 Speaker 2: had a lower leg injury. 920 00:38:53,760 --> 00:38:54,760 Speaker 1: I believe that's. 921 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:58,160 Speaker 2: Everyone, just FYI. So we'll keep an eye on that 922 00:38:58,239 --> 00:39:00,279 Speaker 2: as we move forward here.

Giants fall to the 937 00:39:32,520 --> 00:39:35,359 Speaker 2: Jets in the preseason finale. Jets get the bragging rights 938 00:39:35,400 --> 00:39:38,720 Speaker 2: this year. They defeat the Giants in their little cross 939 00:39:38,760 --> 00:39:41,480 Speaker 2: town rivalry, cross state rivaly, whatever you want to call it, 940 00:39:41,520 --> 00:39:45,440 Speaker 2: ten to six in a throwing game here at MetLife Stadium. 941 00:39:45,480 --> 00:39:49,000 Speaker 2: To wrap things up, we got one touchdown, three field goals. 942 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,560 Speaker 2: But luckily the regular season around the corner JC and 943 00:39:52,640 --> 00:39:55,200 Speaker 2: on tire. I love watching practice and watching training camp, 944 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:57,440 Speaker 2: but I'm ready for some real football now, and we're 945 00:39:57,440 --> 00:39:59,720 Speaker 2: gonna get into fifteen days and we know the Vikings 946 00:39:59,719 --> 00:40:00,960 Speaker 2: offense is very strong. 947 00:40:01,320 --> 00:40:03,640 Speaker 1: Their defense, on the other hand, had some issues last year. 948 00:40:04,040 --> 00:40:07,399 Speaker 2: Now their coordinator is very talented and does some very 949 00:40:07,400 --> 00:40:10,399 Speaker 2: clever things. And Brian Flores last year, who was either 950 00:40:10,440 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 2: a big drop eight or blitz guy, and that's kind 951 00:40:12,960 --> 00:40:15,800 Speaker 2: of how he handled things. The keep offense is off kilter, 952 00:40:16,400 --> 00:40:18,400 Speaker 2: but they have added some players to that room. They 953 00:40:18,440 --> 00:40:20,239 Speaker 2: lost to Neil Hunter, which is a big loss. He 954 00:40:20,280 --> 00:40:23,120 Speaker 2: was their best pass rusher last year, absolutely, but they 955 00:40:23,120 --> 00:40:26,000 Speaker 2: do bring in Jonathan Greenard, who is a good pass 956 00:40:26,080 --> 00:40:29,880 Speaker 2: rusher from over from the AFC. Joining him is Andrew 957 00:40:29,920 --> 00:40:33,400 Speaker 2: Van Ginkel, who's kind of a hybrid outside linebacker that 958 00:40:33,440 --> 00:40:35,279 Speaker 2: can blitz but also cover a little bit. He had 959 00:40:35,320 --> 00:40:38,520 Speaker 2: been with Flores in Miami previously. And then they draft 960 00:40:38,560 --> 00:40:41,359 Speaker 2: Dallas Turner. He was their first round pick, in fact, 961 00:40:41,400 --> 00:40:44,399 Speaker 2: they traded up to get him, and he's and he's 962 00:40:44,400 --> 00:40:48,640 Speaker 2: sitting there and he's a guy that can rush the Passer, 963 00:40:48,800 --> 00:40:52,080 Speaker 2: has a lot of natural pass rushing talent, athletic stole 964 00:40:52,160 --> 00:40:54,400 Speaker 2: some work to do on some of his fundamentals. And 965 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:58,200 Speaker 2: then in the secondary their veterans, they got guys with 966 00:40:58,239 --> 00:41:01,080 Speaker 2: a lot of experience. JC they just signed Stefan Gilmore, 967 00:41:01,080 --> 00:41:03,680 Speaker 2: who's been with the Cowboys last year. Has been sitting 968 00:41:03,719 --> 00:41:06,040 Speaker 2: out just arrive there I think three or four days ago. 969 00:41:06,640 --> 00:41:09,080 Speaker 2: Byron Murphy and Shack Griffin. The other two corners, Harrison 970 00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:13,320 Speaker 2: Smith Josh mntell Us are their two safeties. So veteran players, 971 00:41:13,320 --> 00:41:15,719 Speaker 2: but guys that you know, not sure if they're necessarily 972 00:41:15,800 --> 00:41:18,120 Speaker 2: at their peak anymore, given how long they've been in 973 00:41:18,120 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 2: the league. 974 00:41:18,680 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 3: Yeah, exactly. And look, Harrison Smith, we all know he's 975 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:23,879 Speaker 3: been in the league. I mean a good amount of time. 976 00:41:23,920 --> 00:41:26,520 Speaker 3: Been making plays for a long time, not just on 977 00:41:26,560 --> 00:41:28,240 Speaker 3: the back end, but around the line of scrimmage. 978 00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:28,960 Speaker 1: He's a smart player. 979 00:41:29,000 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 3: He's a smart player, makes a lot of like run 980 00:41:32,600 --> 00:41:35,280 Speaker 3: stops around the line of scrimmers, but also in the backfield. 981 00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:37,520 Speaker 3: They like to sell them on blitz and we'll see 982 00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:40,840 Speaker 3: what Brian Flores does because if he's anything like he 983 00:41:41,000 --> 00:41:44,040 Speaker 3: was in New England, and they have that identity of 984 00:41:44,239 --> 00:41:47,040 Speaker 3: you know, you had to Bill Parcells guys. Now you 985 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,719 Speaker 3: have the Bill Belichick guys. He's one of the Bill 986 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:51,759 Speaker 3: Belichick guys. And what I know from Bill Belichick, they 987 00:41:51,880 --> 00:41:55,080 Speaker 3: like to take away what you do best. So Week one, 988 00:41:55,440 --> 00:41:57,799 Speaker 3: what do the Giants do best? You know, I think 989 00:41:57,800 --> 00:41:59,160 Speaker 3: that's a huge question right now. 990 00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:00,360 Speaker 1: Oh, I'm a. 991 00:42:00,360 --> 00:42:03,759 Speaker 2: Serious question your defense and you're going up against this 992 00:42:03,840 --> 00:42:07,080 Speaker 2: Giants offense. Let's be honest, how do you have any 993 00:42:07,120 --> 00:42:09,239 Speaker 2: idea what this Giants offense is going to look like? 994 00:42:09,320 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 2: The guy that was the centerpiece of everything that they 995 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 2: did in Saquon Barkley is gone. Unlike last year when 996 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,279 Speaker 2: you had a completely unworkable offensive line, you should have 997 00:42:18,360 --> 00:42:20,359 Speaker 2: a group this year said that can at least give 998 00:42:20,400 --> 00:42:23,560 Speaker 2: you good enough play where Brian Dable can call the 999 00:42:23,560 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 2: game however he wants. 1000 00:42:24,920 --> 00:42:27,960 Speaker 1: Oh, hold on a second, your play caller is different. 1001 00:42:28,280 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 2: Well, again, we don't know that for sure yet, but 1002 00:42:30,160 --> 00:42:32,800 Speaker 2: it certainly looks like Brian Dabeles gonna call the plays 1003 00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:35,799 Speaker 2: once the Giants get to the regular season. Oh and, 1004 00:42:35,840 --> 00:42:38,680 Speaker 2: by the way, you drafted a wide receiver six to 1005 00:42:38,719 --> 00:42:41,000 Speaker 2: overall league neighbors as your number one wide receiver. So 1006 00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:43,960 Speaker 2: if you're Brian Flores, how do you plan to take 1007 00:42:43,960 --> 00:42:45,920 Speaker 2: away what the Giants do best? When you really have 1008 00:42:46,000 --> 00:42:47,920 Speaker 2: no idea what this Giants offense is gonna look like? 1009 00:42:48,000 --> 00:42:50,880 Speaker 3: Yeah, I mean that's true. Like Week one, this is 1010 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:53,640 Speaker 3: a kind of a new offense with some new pieces. 1011 00:42:53,719 --> 00:42:55,960 Speaker 3: Offensive line, got a couple of new guys, there, you 1012 00:42:56,000 --> 00:42:59,759 Speaker 3: have a main new target in Neighbors, and you have 1013 00:42:59,800 --> 00:43:02,440 Speaker 3: a quarterback who's coming back off an injury. So it 1014 00:43:03,440 --> 00:43:06,759 Speaker 3: doesn't really change per se week to week. But you know, 1015 00:43:06,840 --> 00:43:09,960 Speaker 3: like I said, Justin Jefferson has established himself in the NFL, 1016 00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:12,959 Speaker 3: so you have to, you know, take account for him 1017 00:43:13,040 --> 00:43:15,080 Speaker 3: for sure. But when you look at the Giants offense, 1018 00:43:15,120 --> 00:43:17,640 Speaker 3: it's like on third down and it's a past situation. 1019 00:43:17,800 --> 00:43:20,840 Speaker 3: Do we double the young receiver? Do we double neighbors? 1020 00:43:21,120 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 2: What I said as a player, and a DC comes 1021 00:43:23,560 --> 00:43:25,520 Speaker 2: out and says, this guy hasn't played a one regular 1022 00:43:25,600 --> 00:43:28,439 Speaker 2: NFL game yet, but we're going to have two guys 1023 00:43:28,440 --> 00:43:29,719 Speaker 2: this side of the field, and every he plays a 1024 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:30,359 Speaker 2: defensive player. 1025 00:43:30,400 --> 00:43:31,800 Speaker 1: You like, coach serious? 1026 00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:35,239 Speaker 3: No, okay, you don't question curious, you know, you don't. 1027 00:43:35,480 --> 00:43:36,959 Speaker 3: You don't question the coach, you know, And. 1028 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:38,080 Speaker 1: Have you seen that before? 1029 00:43:38,360 --> 00:43:38,600 Speaker 4: Yeah? 1030 00:43:38,680 --> 00:43:40,400 Speaker 3: Yeah, of course, you know what I mean. We had this. 1031 00:43:40,560 --> 00:43:42,239 Speaker 3: We had this defense when I was in New Orleans 1032 00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:44,279 Speaker 3: against the Patriots where we had a triple double. We 1033 00:43:44,320 --> 00:43:46,680 Speaker 3: had three down lineman and we had three guys getting 1034 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 3: double teamed. Gronkowski, was it Julian and whoever their ex receiver. 1035 00:43:53,000 --> 00:43:54,640 Speaker 1: Was, but not able, but. 1036 00:43:54,600 --> 00:43:56,160 Speaker 4: Not a rookie, not a rookie indeed. 1037 00:43:56,239 --> 00:43:58,400 Speaker 1: And that's why I'm asking, like, isn't it weird to 1038 00:43:58,480 --> 00:43:59,840 Speaker 1: do that in a rookie? First? 1039 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,520 Speaker 4: It may it may, It may be like that. It 1040 00:44:02,560 --> 00:44:04,799 Speaker 4: doesn't have to be a double team on the third down, 1041 00:44:04,840 --> 00:44:07,560 Speaker 4: It doesn't have to They can play coverage, you know, 1042 00:44:07,600 --> 00:44:08,799 Speaker 4: on the back end of that. 1043 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:11,200 Speaker 3: But it's gonna be interesting to see what they do. 1044 00:44:11,719 --> 00:44:14,240 Speaker 3: But if I'm a defensive coordinator, if I was Brian Floores, 1045 00:44:14,280 --> 00:44:16,480 Speaker 3: it's not about the team we're playing. It's about us. 1046 00:44:16,640 --> 00:44:19,239 Speaker 3: What is our identity gonna be? Are we going to 1047 00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:21,319 Speaker 3: be an attacking type of defense? We're gonna be more 1048 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:23,719 Speaker 3: for a conservative and take, you know, the ball when 1049 00:44:23,719 --> 00:44:24,839 Speaker 3: we get the opportunities. 1050 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:26,680 Speaker 1: By the way, the Giants don't know that either, because 1051 00:44:26,680 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: the fighter. 1052 00:44:28,160 --> 00:44:30,600 Speaker 3: One hundred percent, you know, without their main dog who 1053 00:44:30,640 --> 00:44:33,319 Speaker 3: has been a dog in this league, Daniel Hunter for 1054 00:44:33,320 --> 00:44:35,919 Speaker 3: a very long time, taking away sixteen and a half 1055 00:44:36,000 --> 00:44:38,680 Speaker 3: sacks from them last year, you know what's going to 1056 00:44:38,760 --> 00:44:41,759 Speaker 3: be their identity defensively. But you know they're gonna be 1057 00:44:41,840 --> 00:44:45,120 Speaker 3: led by a very talented and you know leader in 1058 00:44:45,239 --> 00:44:47,960 Speaker 3: Harrison Smith, and they got they got a very solid 1059 00:44:48,160 --> 00:44:50,759 Speaker 3: corner on the outside. Not to say he's the same 1060 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:52,279 Speaker 3: guy who used to be three or four years ago 1061 00:44:52,520 --> 00:44:53,359 Speaker 3: when he was playing at that. 1062 00:44:53,320 --> 00:44:55,560 Speaker 1: All Protest Dallas last year. 1063 00:44:55,600 --> 00:44:58,000 Speaker 3: It's still a good starter, so they may be comfortable 1064 00:44:58,040 --> 00:45:00,360 Speaker 3: with him just going with neighbors on a on one 1065 00:45:00,440 --> 00:45:03,239 Speaker 3: situation on third down, especially third down and shirt where 1066 00:45:03,440 --> 00:45:05,359 Speaker 3: man and man is kind of notched up a lot. 1067 00:45:05,600 --> 00:45:07,960 Speaker 3: Instead of third down, let's be third and long where 1068 00:45:07,960 --> 00:45:10,799 Speaker 3: you're doing more of a blitzing type of situation, or 1069 00:45:10,800 --> 00:45:14,160 Speaker 3: even sit back and deal with coverage with more guys, 1070 00:45:14,360 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 3: maybe dropping an extra guy in coverage. Instead of rushing four, 1071 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:20,240 Speaker 3: you rush two or three. You know, So we'll see 1072 00:45:20,280 --> 00:45:23,040 Speaker 3: what happens. That's why I'm so excited right now, because 1073 00:45:23,040 --> 00:45:25,560 Speaker 3: you really don't know what's going to happen. You don't 1074 00:45:25,600 --> 00:45:27,200 Speaker 3: know exactly what the roster is going to look like, 1075 00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:29,279 Speaker 3: especially the back end of the roster. You don't know 1076 00:45:29,320 --> 00:45:31,640 Speaker 3: what the offensive, you know, mentality is going to be. 1077 00:45:31,800 --> 00:45:33,680 Speaker 3: You don't know what the defensive. I think you have 1078 00:45:33,719 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 3: a little idea because of Shane Bowen and what he's done, 1079 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,239 Speaker 3: but now he has new toys to work with. Right 1080 00:45:38,440 --> 00:45:41,239 Speaker 3: this is Brian Burns, you know, coming over one of 1081 00:45:41,239 --> 00:45:44,080 Speaker 3: the premier pass rushers in the NFL. See what he 1082 00:45:44,239 --> 00:45:46,279 Speaker 3: looked like, See what Dexter Lawrence looks like in his 1083 00:45:46,760 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 3: fifth season, six six season. Yeah, I want to see 1084 00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:54,680 Speaker 3: what he looks like because he is the guy. You know, 1085 00:45:54,800 --> 00:45:56,960 Speaker 3: he's the guy that steps off the bus first. When 1086 00:45:56,960 --> 00:45:59,480 Speaker 3: you think about the Giants, I want Dexter Lawrence stepping 1087 00:45:59,520 --> 00:46:01,319 Speaker 3: off the bus first. I want them to be like, 1088 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:04,480 Speaker 3: oh wow, he is a giant, because he plays like 1089 00:46:04,520 --> 00:46:07,000 Speaker 3: a giant. He's what the Giants are all about. So 1090 00:46:07,320 --> 00:46:09,839 Speaker 3: it's I'm so excited right now. Not that I wasn't 1091 00:46:09,840 --> 00:46:11,560 Speaker 3: excited about the preseason. You know, I got to see 1092 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:13,600 Speaker 3: my boy, Tomin Devido throw the ball. I got to 1093 00:46:13,600 --> 00:46:17,280 Speaker 3: see some really good young linebackers play today. I'm excited 1094 00:46:17,320 --> 00:46:19,680 Speaker 3: for what the season has in store. I wanted to 1095 00:46:19,719 --> 00:46:22,279 Speaker 3: take my you know, expectations down a little bit because 1096 00:46:22,320 --> 00:46:25,000 Speaker 3: I was heartbreaking. I was very heartbroken last year. I 1097 00:46:25,000 --> 00:46:27,480 Speaker 3: tried to with the opening. 1098 00:46:27,239 --> 00:46:30,319 Speaker 2: Week, well, well, I think nobody thought that's what look 1099 00:46:30,440 --> 00:46:32,520 Speaker 2: like I just spent coming off the playoff. 1100 00:46:32,680 --> 00:46:34,680 Speaker 3: But again, back in you know, back in the home 1101 00:46:34,719 --> 00:46:38,439 Speaker 3: stadium for the season opener against a very talented offensive team, 1102 00:46:38,560 --> 00:46:40,120 Speaker 3: let's figure out what the team is gonna be in 1103 00:46:40,120 --> 00:46:43,399 Speaker 3: the Vikings defensively, but look, you got a premiere wide 1104 00:46:43,440 --> 00:46:45,600 Speaker 3: receiver coming in this building. I want to see what 1105 00:46:45,680 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 3: Shane Bowen has in store for Justin Jefferson and the Vikings. 1106 00:46:48,680 --> 00:46:51,200 Speaker 2: A real final point, real quick jaysa before we wrap 1107 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:54,000 Speaker 2: things up and we say goodbye until we get that first. 1108 00:46:53,840 --> 00:46:55,480 Speaker 1: Rail season game in fifteen days. 1109 00:46:56,320 --> 00:46:58,080 Speaker 2: What do you think this Giants team is gonna look 1110 00:46:58,080 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 2: like when all of a sudden you talk about the mystery, 1111 00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:02,480 Speaker 2: we don't know. What do you think, though, it's going 1112 00:47:02,520 --> 00:47:04,080 Speaker 2: to look like? And what are we going to be 1113 00:47:04,080 --> 00:47:06,560 Speaker 2: saying about this team when we get to January twenty 1114 00:47:06,600 --> 00:47:07,240 Speaker 2: twenty five. 1115 00:47:07,360 --> 00:47:10,839 Speaker 3: I think in twenty twenty two, that was the identity 1116 00:47:11,280 --> 00:47:14,640 Speaker 3: that the Giants really wanted. That's what they really wanted, 1117 00:47:14,640 --> 00:47:17,839 Speaker 3: and I think it surfaced a little bit prematurely, you know, 1118 00:47:17,880 --> 00:47:22,960 Speaker 3: I think the roster wasn't really there right quite yet 1119 00:47:23,320 --> 00:47:25,239 Speaker 3: to what their record was. You know, they won a 1120 00:47:25,239 --> 00:47:27,080 Speaker 3: lot of close games. I think it was like ten 1121 00:47:27,600 --> 00:47:28,120 Speaker 3: nine ten. 1122 00:47:28,120 --> 00:47:30,800 Speaker 1: Days, seven score games, I believe. 1123 00:47:30,360 --> 00:47:32,440 Speaker 3: You know, and they won a lot of those games. 1124 00:47:32,480 --> 00:47:34,200 Speaker 3: And last year you've seen it kind of go the 1125 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:36,520 Speaker 3: opposite way. But I think the identity of what they 1126 00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 3: showed us in twenty twenty two. They want to be 1127 00:47:38,239 --> 00:47:41,479 Speaker 3: a physical, running football type of team, stop the run, 1128 00:47:41,760 --> 00:47:44,320 Speaker 3: be good in certain situations. When I say certain situations, 1129 00:47:44,480 --> 00:47:47,080 Speaker 3: it's good to be great, you know, all over the place. 1130 00:47:47,120 --> 00:47:49,919 Speaker 3: But you want to be fishing and you know, move 1131 00:47:50,000 --> 00:47:52,839 Speaker 3: the ball and complete third downs. You want to get 1132 00:47:53,040 --> 00:47:54,799 Speaker 3: be good on third downs like they were, and you 1133 00:47:54,840 --> 00:47:58,120 Speaker 3: want to be a good scoring team offensively and defensively. 1134 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:00,000 Speaker 3: I don't care if my team gives up six hundred 1135 00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:04,160 Speaker 3: yards if they only got twelve points, ten points, fourteen 1136 00:48:04,160 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 3: points on. 1137 00:48:04,520 --> 00:48:05,920 Speaker 2: The ball, and Shane bones been one of the best 1138 00:48:05,920 --> 00:48:07,560 Speaker 2: red zone defenses in the league and sis you know. 1139 00:48:07,800 --> 00:48:11,120 Speaker 3: So, I think the identity what they showed us in 1140 00:48:11,200 --> 00:48:14,000 Speaker 3: twenty twenty two, that playoff team that won a playoff 1141 00:48:14,040 --> 00:48:16,720 Speaker 3: game first time in over ten years, about ten years 1142 00:48:16,880 --> 00:48:19,960 Speaker 3: since the Giants went to Super Bowl. That identity was 1143 00:48:20,239 --> 00:48:23,120 Speaker 3: a hard nosed, tough, physical football team that was going 1144 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:25,160 Speaker 3: to run the football when it came down to a 1145 00:48:25,239 --> 00:48:27,720 Speaker 3: Daniels making plays on third down and in the red zone. 1146 00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:30,920 Speaker 3: I think that's what the identity of, like, that's what 1147 00:48:30,960 --> 00:48:33,960 Speaker 3: the recipe to success will be for this twenty twenty 1148 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:34,719 Speaker 3: four football team. 1149 00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:35,680 Speaker 1: You know what I think it's gonna be. 1150 00:48:35,760 --> 00:48:37,160 Speaker 2: I gotta be honest with you, and I could be 1151 00:48:37,239 --> 00:48:39,239 Speaker 2: proven to look like a fool when all said and done. 1152 00:48:40,040 --> 00:48:42,320 Speaker 2: I think this is gonna be a pass first team. 1153 00:48:42,480 --> 00:48:44,879 Speaker 2: I think they're opening this sucker up. I think they're 1154 00:48:44,880 --> 00:48:48,160 Speaker 2: throwing the ball early, often and down the field. 1155 00:48:48,320 --> 00:48:49,160 Speaker 4: That makes me nervous. 1156 00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:51,000 Speaker 1: Good thing, and it might look great. 1157 00:48:51,400 --> 00:48:53,719 Speaker 2: Maybe it doesn't work out, but I think we're gonna 1158 00:48:53,760 --> 00:48:57,759 Speaker 2: know exactly what the Giants have on offense. Throwing the 1159 00:48:57,760 --> 00:49:01,440 Speaker 2: football once this season is all. I think they're handed 1160 00:49:01,480 --> 00:49:04,399 Speaker 2: it to the quarterback and they say, look, Daniel sae 1161 00:49:04,440 --> 00:49:06,640 Speaker 2: Kwon Barki's not here anymore. If you go back to 1162 00:49:06,680 --> 00:49:10,399 Speaker 2: Brian Daviles history with Buffalo, Brian Davile like to till 1163 00:49:10,400 --> 00:49:13,359 Speaker 2: the football now. They drafted a guy sixth overall, Their 1164 00:49:13,360 --> 00:49:16,200 Speaker 2: slot receivers a second round pick, their outside receiver is 1165 00:49:16,239 --> 00:49:18,000 Speaker 2: a third round pick, and then you have Darius Lane, 1166 00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,279 Speaker 2: who has been their top wide receiver over the past 1167 00:49:20,320 --> 00:49:23,040 Speaker 2: five years. That's where they've invested the pieces. They invested 1168 00:49:23,080 --> 00:49:26,319 Speaker 2: the pieces in past protection. That's where they've made their investments. 1169 00:49:26,719 --> 00:49:28,480 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna throw the ball awful lot this year, 1170 00:49:28,520 --> 00:49:30,080 Speaker 2: and I think week win Agains Minnesota, they're gonna have 1171 00:49:30,120 --> 00:49:31,319 Speaker 2: some success doing it as well. 1172 00:49:32,920 --> 00:49:35,160 Speaker 3: It's a huge year, not just for the Giants, but 1173 00:49:35,360 --> 00:49:38,440 Speaker 3: specifically for Daniel Jones. You know, he's a guy that 1174 00:49:38,480 --> 00:49:41,440 Speaker 3: basically got the keys to this beautiful organization in the 1175 00:49:41,440 --> 00:49:44,640 Speaker 3: New York Football Giants. It's up to him, I think 1176 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,760 Speaker 3: in terms of the success of this team, it's basically 1177 00:49:47,880 --> 00:49:49,840 Speaker 3: up to his arm.
