As we await head coach Pat Sherman, 25 00:01:27,160 --> 00:01:29,880 Speaker 1: we bring in John schmlk, who is a waiting word downstairs. 26 00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:32,480 Speaker 1: And John, they finally got back on the winning track, 27 00:01:32,520 --> 00:01:35,280 Speaker 1: and to me, a big factor today was the Giant's 28 00:01:35,280 --> 00:01:37,680 Speaker 1: ability to run the football, which I think set them 29 00:01:37,760 --> 00:01:40,319 Speaker 1: up very nicely on third down. Se Kwan Barkley had 30 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,880 Speaker 1: no negative runs in this game. That was a huge 31 00:01:43,880 --> 00:01:46,280 Speaker 1: factor and an opportunity for him to finally get over 32 00:01:46,319 --> 00:01:48,840 Speaker 1: the century mark. Yeah. Absolutely, I think the running game 33 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:51,240 Speaker 1: was big. Eli Manning also made some really big plays 34 00:01:51,280 --> 00:01:54,200 Speaker 1: through the air lands uh down the field, which certainly 35 00:01:54,240 --> 00:01:56,240 Speaker 1: helps big plays, you know, go a long way in 36 00:01:56,280 --> 00:01:59,440 Speaker 1: this league in terms of making things happen, So that 37 00:01:59,520 --> 00:02:01,280 Speaker 1: was a big part of it. I thought the protection 38 00:02:01,320 --> 00:02:03,840 Speaker 1: for Eli Manning was strong. You mentioned the lack of 39 00:02:03,880 --> 00:02:06,920 Speaker 1: negative runs from say Kwon Barkley. He set a season 40 00:02:07,000 --> 00:02:10,280 Speaker 1: high with more than a hundred and forty scrimmage yards today, 41 00:02:10,360 --> 00:02:13,720 Speaker 1: So it was his best game yardage wise of the year. 42 00:02:14,480 --> 00:02:16,840 Speaker 1: And when you have a lead and you're not playing 43 00:02:16,880 --> 00:02:19,840 Speaker 1: from behind, you can play a more balanced game, which 44 00:02:19,880 --> 00:02:21,760 Speaker 1: is exactly what the Giants were able to do today. 45 00:02:21,800 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 1: But I think down here most of the attention will 46 00:02:24,040 --> 00:02:26,160 Speaker 1: be given to, you know, the fact that this could 47 00:02:26,200 --> 00:02:28,160 Speaker 1: very well be Line Manning's final start of that life 48 00:02:28,160 --> 00:02:30,679 Speaker 1: stadium for the Giants, of course, depending on what the 49 00:02:30,720 --> 00:02:32,920 Speaker 1: future holds in. Daniel Jones's ankle, of course, is a 50 00:02:32,919 --> 00:02:35,040 Speaker 1: part of that too, But I imagine that's going to 51 00:02:35,080 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: be a large topic of conversation with the head coach 52 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 1: and with Eli Manning in the locker room. Well, I 53 00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 1: deservedly so, John, because you know, Eli Manning certainly had 54 00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:45,840 Speaker 1: been a spectator for the majority of this season. He 55 00:02:45,919 --> 00:02:48,840 Speaker 1: didn't necessarily expect to be replaced that early, but handled 56 00:02:48,840 --> 00:02:50,840 Speaker 1: it with class as he always had, and you know, 57 00:02:50,960 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: had a typical game sometimes throughout the course of his 58 00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:56,359 Speaker 1: career where he had those issues with interceptions but still 59 00:02:56,360 --> 00:02:58,800 Speaker 1: found the way to bounce back. Yeah. Absolutely, And that's 60 00:02:58,800 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: the thing about Eli Manning is the numbers don't bother him. 61 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:04,280 Speaker 1: And I think that interception at the end of the 62 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:07,160 Speaker 1: first half, which goes on the ledgers an interception, But 63 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,919 Speaker 1: it's a play where you know, he could easily just 64 00:03:09,960 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 1: throw the ball away and got him the halftime and 65 00:03:12,200 --> 00:03:14,160 Speaker 1: been okay with it. But he was a right throwing 66 00:03:14,160 --> 00:03:16,200 Speaker 1: the ball thirty yards down the field to the sideline 67 00:03:16,240 --> 00:03:18,679 Speaker 1: into double coverage, because well, if you completely get a 68 00:03:18,760 --> 00:03:20,320 Speaker 1: chance in the field goal, you know it's a low 69 00:03:20,320 --> 00:03:23,880 Speaker 1: percentage play. But he just doesn't care about those numbers, 70 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 1: and it's kind of how he's always operated. He doesn't 71 00:03:25,760 --> 00:03:29,480 Speaker 1: let those mistakes bother him. Later in the game, he 72 00:03:29,560 --> 00:03:32,480 Speaker 1: goes in takes his shots down the field again and 73 00:03:32,560 --> 00:03:34,880 Speaker 1: sometimes he makes him, sometimes he doesn't. But you know, 74 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,200 Speaker 1: it's his resilience that's really been a calling card of 75 00:03:38,240 --> 00:03:40,240 Speaker 1: his career and ability to continue to try to make 76 00:03:40,280 --> 00:03:43,880 Speaker 1: big plays even after some of those mistakes. Head coach 77 00:03:43,920 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 1: of the Giants, Pat Shermer has made his way into 78 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,760 Speaker 1: the press conference room is being escorted by Mike Murphy 79 00:03:49,800 --> 00:03:51,680 Speaker 1: up to the podium where he will address the media 80 00:03:51,760 --> 00:03:55,640 Speaker 1: after the giants first win since September. Here's the injury. 81 00:03:56,600 --> 00:03:59,280 Speaker 1: Baker knocked his knee a little bit, but he got 82 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: back in there with able to finish so well. It's 83 00:04:02,400 --> 00:04:04,840 Speaker 1: been quite a long stretch, but it was it felt 84 00:04:04,880 --> 00:04:07,680 Speaker 1: really good to win. It was a good team win. Um, 85 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:11,040 Speaker 1: as you saw, there was contributions by the defense, obviously 86 00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:14,160 Speaker 1: the offense, and then certainly on special teams. We we 87 00:04:14,200 --> 00:04:18,159 Speaker 1: did a lot of good things, and UM, you know, 88 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:20,760 Speaker 1: I think it feels it feels good for me because 89 00:04:20,760 --> 00:04:25,240 Speaker 1: these guys have continued to fight. We finally really put 90 00:04:25,320 --> 00:04:28,839 Speaker 1: a full game together on all three sides of the ball, 91 00:04:29,480 --> 00:04:32,440 Speaker 1: and it worked out our way. We made made plays, 92 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:36,280 Speaker 1: and um, it was good to win. It was good 93 00:04:36,320 --> 00:04:39,760 Speaker 1: to be able to uh have Eli out there playing 94 00:04:39,760 --> 00:04:43,239 Speaker 1: with us and help lead us to a victory. He certainly, 95 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:46,320 Speaker 1: um done many many good things around here for many 96 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,680 Speaker 1: many years, and for him to enjoy leading us to 97 00:04:49,720 --> 00:04:53,880 Speaker 1: a victory, um, it should should feel real special for 98 00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,159 Speaker 1: him because of who he who he is. So UM. 99 00:04:58,839 --> 00:05:01,440 Speaker 1: But that I'll take your questions. What were the all 100 00:05:01,440 --> 00:05:03,280 Speaker 1: atone to play at the secondary three of the work. 101 00:05:03,320 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: He's out there played a lot of How you thought 102 00:05:04,640 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: he competed all day? Yeah? I thought they competed well, 103 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,400 Speaker 1: you know, I thought I thought defensively, we did a 104 00:05:10,400 --> 00:05:14,160 Speaker 1: good job. We got a lot of stops in critical situations. Uh, 105 00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:16,080 Speaker 1: you know, we turned the ball over and you know, 106 00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,800 Speaker 1: forced him to kick a field goal. And so I 107 00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:21,840 Speaker 1: felt like, you know, I think along the way our 108 00:05:21,880 --> 00:05:25,719 Speaker 1: guys have competed. Um, if you look at last week's game, 109 00:05:25,920 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: competed throughout the game, and then we sort of broke 110 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:31,880 Speaker 1: down at the end, uh, in critical situation, um to 111 00:05:32,000 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 1: end up you know, losing the game. But in this game, 112 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:39,320 Speaker 1: they fought throughout. Um made a lot of plays and um, 113 00:05:39,360 --> 00:05:42,080 Speaker 1: you know, really helped contribute in the victory. You think 114 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 1: of the way Eli played, particularly in the second half, 115 00:05:45,040 --> 00:05:47,960 Speaker 1: was opposite of his second half for a week ago. No, 116 00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:51,080 Speaker 1: I thought he played. He played a gretty game, and 117 00:05:51,120 --> 00:05:52,400 Speaker 1: he had a lot of he made. He made a 118 00:05:52,440 --> 00:05:55,680 Speaker 1: lot of great plays. You know, certainly everybody will point 119 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,720 Speaker 1: to some of the bad plays, which were the interceptions, 120 00:05:58,760 --> 00:06:02,159 Speaker 1: but um, I was I was really pleased with the 121 00:06:02,200 --> 00:06:05,279 Speaker 1: way he led us and got us in the end zone. 122 00:06:05,839 --> 00:06:08,000 Speaker 1: Was real good with the run game stuff, making sure 123 00:06:08,040 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 1: we're in the right run and um, he sort of 124 00:06:11,080 --> 00:06:14,040 Speaker 1: played an Elin Manning type game in my mind and 125 00:06:14,760 --> 00:06:16,839 Speaker 1: helped lead us to victory. That was it down the 126 00:06:16,880 --> 00:06:19,000 Speaker 1: stretch there. I mean, it's an unusual situation. You know, 127 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:21,400 Speaker 1: he got the game in hand, and you know, do 128 00:06:21,480 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: I take you Lae outcause you want to take the knees. 129 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,320 Speaker 1: You know, it's a nice situation. Obviously, have to think 130 00:06:25,360 --> 00:06:27,120 Speaker 1: about it. Yeah, I mean it's good when you can 131 00:06:27,160 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 1: start thinking about those other things. Of late. We've been 132 00:06:31,920 --> 00:06:35,720 Speaker 1: in two minutes trying to race back and get you know, 133 00:06:35,839 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 1: so to be in a four minute mode, UH was 134 00:06:39,560 --> 00:06:41,680 Speaker 1: was fun and that's what you're always looking for. And 135 00:06:41,680 --> 00:06:45,280 Speaker 1: then the the ability to put him in and then 136 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:48,400 Speaker 1: take him out where he could be recognized by the fans. 137 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,560 Speaker 1: Um that was great an all the indication that was 138 00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 1: that all an indication that you know that this is 139 00:06:55,040 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: his last home start or is that still to me? Now? 140 00:06:57,640 --> 00:06:59,400 Speaker 1: I I think we have two games left to go, 141 00:06:59,640 --> 00:07:02,240 Speaker 1: and what's have to see? You know, Dan's trying to 142 00:07:02,279 --> 00:07:04,480 Speaker 1: come back from from injury and who knows where he's 143 00:07:04,480 --> 00:07:07,720 Speaker 1: gonna be. Uh. As we talked about the end of 144 00:07:07,720 --> 00:07:09,200 Speaker 1: the last week, he was in a boot. At the 145 00:07:09,279 --> 00:07:10,960 Speaker 1: end of this week he was practicing. But I don't 146 00:07:10,960 --> 00:07:13,440 Speaker 1: know how much better he's gonna be. So you know, 147 00:07:13,480 --> 00:07:17,480 Speaker 1: there's a chance that Eli keeps playing. But to uh 148 00:07:17,720 --> 00:07:20,480 Speaker 1: enjoy a victory like we did today and for him 149 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:23,440 Speaker 1: to be a significant part of it should feel really 150 00:07:23,480 --> 00:07:26,920 Speaker 1: good for him. Back in your defense, she gave up, 151 00:07:27,360 --> 00:07:29,720 Speaker 1: I want to give up six completions in the second half. 152 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:33,040 Speaker 1: Any big adjustments and what you see the reason why? No, No, 153 00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 1: we just continue to continue to play. You know. You 154 00:07:37,240 --> 00:07:40,000 Speaker 1: when you get on that side of it, uh, where 155 00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:42,280 Speaker 1: they're playing on offense like we've had to do you 156 00:07:42,320 --> 00:07:44,640 Speaker 1: know a few of the last last few weeks. Uh, 157 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:46,880 Speaker 1: it makes it tougher and you can be a little 158 00:07:46,880 --> 00:07:51,000 Speaker 1: more aggressive with the rush'd be tighter in coverage, and um, 159 00:07:51,040 --> 00:07:53,560 Speaker 1: I thought, just the guys competed, you said, he like 160 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:55,840 Speaker 1: you went to look like you went over and said 161 00:07:55,880 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: something just was I guess it was just a hug, 162 00:08:01,720 --> 00:08:05,200 Speaker 1: you know the way to go, coach, What was it 163 00:08:05,280 --> 00:08:07,200 Speaker 1: for you? Guys can come out and score and say 164 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:09,040 Speaker 1: the first time you touched the ball in the same 165 00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:13,360 Speaker 1: half and talk about ones on running today. Yeah, I thought, well, yeah, 166 00:08:13,360 --> 00:08:15,920 Speaker 1: it's always well that score was important because it put 167 00:08:16,000 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: us ahead. Uh, put us ahead fourteen to ten. Huh. 168 00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:22,680 Speaker 1: You always like to get a fast start, you know. 169 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:26,600 Speaker 1: The idea is obviously too and when you defer, um, 170 00:08:26,800 --> 00:08:29,680 Speaker 1: and in this case, you know, when you defer to 171 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,560 Speaker 1: get the ball in a second half and score, I mean, 172 00:08:31,560 --> 00:08:33,880 Speaker 1: that's what you're looking to do. Uh, And it worked 173 00:08:33,880 --> 00:08:38,320 Speaker 1: out our way. Guys executed well and uh in terms 174 00:08:38,360 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 1: of safe one, I thought he ran extremely well. You 175 00:08:41,400 --> 00:08:44,520 Speaker 1: can see when you keep him involved, you know, and 176 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,280 Speaker 1: you know three yards, four yards, eight yards, you know, 177 00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,360 Speaker 1: three yards, four yards, ten yards, um. And that's always 178 00:08:51,360 --> 00:08:53,439 Speaker 1: good when you have a runner of his quality. That 179 00:08:54,160 --> 00:08:56,439 Speaker 1: the current call for elaborate call is that something you're 180 00:08:56,480 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 1: given thought come during the week. If the game that's 181 00:08:59,160 --> 00:09:01,520 Speaker 1: the point? How that about that? Now? You just react 182 00:09:01,520 --> 00:09:03,839 Speaker 1: to it. And I just felt like it was the 183 00:09:03,920 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: right thing to do. And believe it or not, we 184 00:09:07,720 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: as coaches go buy our gut and we react to 185 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:11,800 Speaker 1: things and that that was in the point of the 186 00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:15,640 Speaker 1: game when we were able to do that, and um, 187 00:09:15,880 --> 00:09:18,200 Speaker 1: you know it was it was a good thing. Would 188 00:09:18,200 --> 00:09:20,120 Speaker 1: you think of the band who ran on the field 189 00:09:20,120 --> 00:09:24,000 Speaker 1: with the Eli jersey any thoughts of that? Yeah, he 190 00:09:25,679 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: the guy that tackled him, Uh, didn't seem all that 191 00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 1: fast and he got to him. I mean the guy 192 00:09:31,559 --> 00:09:34,640 Speaker 1: was running pretty slowly, you know. Um, and he got 193 00:09:34,640 --> 00:09:39,240 Speaker 1: tackled but yeah, I didn't notice he had a ten yers. Yeah, 194 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:42,120 Speaker 1: what did you do think of the offensive jail too? Right? 195 00:09:42,120 --> 00:09:47,680 Speaker 1: Is that how that works? No? Typically when you do 196 00:09:47,760 --> 00:09:50,840 Speaker 1: that right, it's lucky didn't get tasered or something worse. 197 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: The the offensive one. You had some injuries, you had 198 00:09:54,480 --> 00:09:56,400 Speaker 1: Gates playing in there. Can you just talk about how 199 00:09:56,440 --> 00:09:59,800 Speaker 1: they played today? Yeah, Nick Gates played well. You know, 200 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: I think we've talked about him kind of on the 201 00:10:03,720 --> 00:10:06,680 Speaker 1: edges here throughout the year, and um, you know, I 202 00:10:06,679 --> 00:10:08,319 Speaker 1: think he's got a bright future. He went in there, 203 00:10:08,320 --> 00:10:10,800 Speaker 1: stepped in there, played for Zeitler, He's played a little 204 00:10:10,800 --> 00:10:13,760 Speaker 1: bit of tackle. Um, you know, I think he's got 205 00:10:13,800 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: a real bright future. He played tough and and one 206 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:19,600 Speaker 1: of the scoring plays there he pulled and cut the 207 00:10:19,679 --> 00:10:22,440 Speaker 1: edge where se Quan was able to bounce. And he's 208 00:10:22,480 --> 00:10:24,600 Speaker 1: just a really good football player. And I think when 209 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: he's given opportunities he performs well. With with Gates and 210 00:10:30,080 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 1: also Sleeting. Is those two guys examples of how well 211 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: you guys developed these young players over the course of 212 00:10:35,920 --> 00:10:38,559 Speaker 1: the season. Well, I'd like to think that's the case. 213 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:43,040 Speaker 1: You know, I think, uh, you know, young players that 214 00:10:43,120 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 1: are good players. Is if they continue to play, will 215 00:10:46,679 --> 00:10:50,080 Speaker 1: improve and uh, for him to come out and play 216 00:10:50,120 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: well today, I think it's a credit to him to 217 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:57,000 Speaker 1: get his last home starter started. In general, that you 218 00:10:57,040 --> 00:10:58,800 Speaker 1: were able to get a victory because the guy who's 219 00:10:59,000 --> 00:11:02,800 Speaker 1: one two super blows yere live. That's a lot of victories. Yeah, 220 00:11:02,960 --> 00:11:05,760 Speaker 1: I'm not you know, I'm not going to overthink that. 221 00:11:06,200 --> 00:11:09,160 Speaker 1: I think it's you know, we've we've had some tough 222 00:11:09,640 --> 00:11:13,280 Speaker 1: tough days, right, some tough afternoons, and this is a 223 00:11:13,280 --> 00:11:16,000 Speaker 1: good one and I think, um, he and all the 224 00:11:16,040 --> 00:11:19,040 Speaker 1: guys in the locker room will enjoy this. You know, 225 00:11:19,080 --> 00:11:22,400 Speaker 1: he kind of jumped. We asked him to speak, and uh, 226 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:26,360 Speaker 1: the last phrase of his little speech to the team 227 00:11:26,400 --> 00:11:30,920 Speaker 1: was see Wednesday. So I don't typically don't do that, 228 00:11:30,960 --> 00:11:36,160 Speaker 1: but today I want to argue with him. So that 229 00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:39,720 Speaker 1: was head coach Pat Shermer speaking to the media and 230 00:11:40,080 --> 00:11:44,679 Speaker 1: dressing what could be Eli Mannings final home start here 231 00:11:44,760 --> 00:11:48,040 Speaker 1: at Midlife Stadium.

You just heard from head 245 00:12:25,920 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: coach Pat Sherman reflecting on how emotional was on the 246 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 1: sideline given the fact that it could very well have 247 00:12:31,520 --> 00:12:35,320 Speaker 1: been Eli Manning's last home start. Also talked about how 248 00:12:35,320 --> 00:12:38,640 Speaker 1: Eli handled the situation just like he's handled any other 249 00:12:38,720 --> 00:12:41,760 Speaker 1: start throughout the course of this season. Let's head down 250 00:12:41,760 --> 00:12:46,880 Speaker 1: to the locker room, Sterling Shepherd speaking to the media, 251 00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:49,040 Speaker 1: it felt good. It's been a while to have that 252 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:51,520 Speaker 1: feeling in the locker room, and that's what we played 253 00:12:51,520 --> 00:12:53,800 Speaker 1: the game for. So it felt good to be in here, 254 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:58,720 Speaker 1: and especially as a special day for Eli and Um, 255 00:12:58,760 --> 00:13:00,480 Speaker 1: I mean, yeah, like I said, it feels good to 256 00:13:00,480 --> 00:13:02,600 Speaker 1: get a win. We're changing the second half shot between 257 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:05,480 Speaker 1: you get like you seen it really had the Yeah. 258 00:13:05,520 --> 00:13:08,280 Speaker 1: I mean it was just we're just clicking, and it 259 00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:09,800 Speaker 1: was it was taking a little minute for us to 260 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:12,080 Speaker 1: get rolling, and we were able to get it roll 261 00:13:12,080 --> 00:13:13,599 Speaker 1: in the second half. That's all it was. So we 262 00:13:13,800 --> 00:13:16,600 Speaker 1: were we connect conscious for you that this could be 263 00:13:16,640 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: Eliz's last time starts. I mean, I think we all 264 00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:22,079 Speaker 1: we all knew that coming into the game, and um, 265 00:13:22,800 --> 00:13:24,760 Speaker 1: you know, because a special day, and we wanted to 266 00:13:24,760 --> 00:13:29,240 Speaker 1: send him out on the right note.

I'm that's the score and the 269 00:13:40,120 --> 00:13:42,040 Speaker 1: right and the start of the third party getting the 270 00:13:42,080 --> 00:13:44,640 Speaker 1: ball back. It's very important. I mean, we wanted to 271 00:13:44,679 --> 00:13:46,960 Speaker 1: get the momentum started, and um, you know we were 272 00:13:47,000 --> 00:13:48,840 Speaker 1: able to do that slate and ran a great route 273 00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:51,120 Speaker 1: on the back of the end zone and um, I 274 00:13:51,160 --> 00:13:52,880 Speaker 1: mean that's something that we have been running over a 275 00:13:52,880 --> 00:13:55,559 Speaker 1: couple of times in practice. Um, and he's been running 276 00:13:55,600 --> 00:13:58,040 Speaker 1: a great route at it uh all week. So Eli 277 00:13:58,320 --> 00:14:01,480 Speaker 1: came back to him and found him say Kwan had 278 00:14:01,520 --> 00:14:03,080 Speaker 1: the kind of game he had today. Yeah, I know, 279 00:14:03,120 --> 00:14:05,520 Speaker 1: he's been issuing for a big day, so it was 280 00:14:05,520 --> 00:14:07,520 Speaker 1: good to see him out there running around, getting back 281 00:14:07,559 --> 00:14:10,640 Speaker 1: to how he does things. And um, I mean, that's 282 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:13,640 Speaker 1: the best running back in the league. And um, you know, 283 00:14:13,880 --> 00:14:16,199 Speaker 1: I'll say that until a matter of breath, and he 284 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:19,080 Speaker 1: showed it today.

There's no excuse anymore. Um. 440 00:20:51,560 --> 00:20:54,080 Speaker 1: You know, I felt like I showed flashes in Chicago 441 00:20:54,320 --> 00:20:58,520 Speaker 1: and Philly and woglew us with Green Bay. Uh, I 442 00:20:58,800 --> 00:21:01,320 Speaker 1: got slow flashes in that. But um, you know it's 443 00:21:01,320 --> 00:21:04,480 Speaker 1: just realistically what it was today. We're able to run 444 00:21:04,480 --> 00:21:06,960 Speaker 1: the ball, um, meaning able to run the ball. Stick 445 00:21:07,000 --> 00:21:09,440 Speaker 1: with the run, we weren't behind, We didn't go away 446 00:21:09,440 --> 00:21:12,840 Speaker 1: from a run. UM. You know, a focus, main point 447 00:21:12,840 --> 00:21:14,760 Speaker 1: of focus would run the ball. We have a nice 448 00:21:14,840 --> 00:21:17,560 Speaker 1: long drive, um where you just see you wear and 449 00:21:17,560 --> 00:21:20,280 Speaker 1: tear um. Everyone loves, you know, have him popped in 450 00:21:20,280 --> 00:21:22,879 Speaker 1: and six eighty um. But sometimes it's those four or 451 00:21:22,880 --> 00:21:25,560 Speaker 1: fives and and gritty runs and you know you wear 452 00:21:25,680 --> 00:21:28,320 Speaker 1: defense down and then you can see, uh, you know 453 00:21:28,359 --> 00:21:29,679 Speaker 1: that was the first time we're able to actually do 454 00:21:29,720 --> 00:21:31,280 Speaker 1: that this year and get a four minute situation, to 455 00:21:31,280 --> 00:21:33,360 Speaker 1: get a six minute situation or whatever, um and run 456 00:21:33,359 --> 00:21:34,680 Speaker 1: away with the game. Is that how you kind of 457 00:21:34,760 --> 00:21:39,720 Speaker 1: envisioned the offense from tape one running games? Yes? And 458 00:21:39,800 --> 00:21:41,040 Speaker 1: I know, I know we have the talent. I know 459 00:21:41,080 --> 00:21:43,280 Speaker 1: we have the players and office a line to do it. Um. 460 00:21:43,600 --> 00:21:46,000 Speaker 1: You know, but that's just how it's been a season. 461 00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:48,160 Speaker 1: You know, it's been up and down season for US. 462 00:21:48,480 --> 00:21:51,800 Speaker 1: UM in consistent season for US. And uh, the run game, 463 00:21:51,960 --> 00:21:54,520 Speaker 1: you know, you could call it ineffective, but you know 464 00:21:54,640 --> 00:21:56,240 Speaker 1: it's it's it's easier to run the ball in the 465 00:21:56,240 --> 00:21:59,560 Speaker 1: fourth quarter. Um. You know, everyone take the dirty run 466 00:21:59,560 --> 00:22:01,560 Speaker 1: and take to their runs. But you take dirty runs 467 00:22:01,560 --> 00:22:03,239 Speaker 1: and you get into the fourth quarter and you're down 468 00:22:03,320 --> 00:22:05,679 Speaker 1: by two touchdowns, it doesn't matter those dirty runs are 469 00:22:05,680 --> 00:22:08,320 Speaker 1: you're taking. Um, you can't lean on them anymore. You 470 00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:10,440 Speaker 1: gotta go back and you gotta pass and I think 471 00:22:10,440 --> 00:22:12,280 Speaker 1: we're able to do that today. Is there a way 472 00:22:12,280 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 1: to quantify or breaking this loosing streak means like the 473 00:22:15,880 --> 00:22:17,919 Speaker 1: team just able to breathe again. Now you know what 474 00:22:17,920 --> 00:22:20,240 Speaker 1: I mean. I mean it's a brusht fest there brush 475 00:22:20,600 --> 00:22:23,720 Speaker 1: there for sure.

This was a cool, cool experience, 500 00:23:23,960 --> 00:23:26,800 Speaker 1: cool moment, and like everybody wants to try to play 501 00:23:26,800 --> 00:23:28,600 Speaker 1: a little extra harder, trying to get him win for him. 502 00:23:28,600 --> 00:23:30,480 Speaker 1: And we said it before the game. It was no no, no, 503 00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:33,320 Speaker 1: uh no secret. You know, there was no mistake. Like 504 00:23:33,359 --> 00:23:34,960 Speaker 1: guys like, hey, it is what it is. We're trying 505 00:23:34,960 --> 00:23:36,560 Speaker 1: to get a win for Eli. If this is his 506 00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:38,119 Speaker 1: last start. We don't have this last start, but this 507 00:23:38,160 --> 00:23:40,080 Speaker 1: is the last start at home as a giant. Let's 508 00:23:40,080 --> 00:23:42,720 Speaker 1: set him off with a bank. I'm looking forward next 509 00:23:42,720 --> 00:23:45,200 Speaker 1: week for Washington. You know, just keep building, just gotta 510 00:23:45,240 --> 00:23:47,080 Speaker 1: keep building up. And man, like I said, all the 511 00:23:47,119 --> 00:23:49,200 Speaker 1: young guys standing up, you know, with the aftermath of 512 00:23:49,320 --> 00:23:51,520 Speaker 1: Jack Rabbit, they stood, they stood on their own and 513 00:23:51,520 --> 00:23:53,640 Speaker 1: they made place. We just gotta build off all that, man, 514 00:23:54,720 --> 00:23:58,080 Speaker 1: No problem, Mike was just from a player perspective, is 515 00:23:58,080 --> 00:24:00,280 Speaker 1: that just really cool? No, you know, you've been the 516 00:24:00,359 --> 00:24:02,199 Speaker 1: legal while. You know what ELI means not only to 517 00:24:02,240 --> 00:24:04,719 Speaker 1: the league but to the city. To see the fans 518 00:24:05,160 --> 00:24:07,399 Speaker 1: have a chance to show him their appreciation the way, Like, 519 00:24:07,440 --> 00:24:09,359 Speaker 1: that's a lot of times the players you don't get that, 520 00:24:09,520 --> 00:24:11,840 Speaker 1: get that, you don't get that opportunity. And it was 521 00:24:11,880 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 1: cool to see, man, it was great that now the 522 00:24:15,040 --> 00:24:17,359 Speaker 1: situation for us today, the players had a chance to 523 00:24:17,400 --> 00:24:19,480 Speaker 1: fight for him and get a win for him. The 524 00:24:19,520 --> 00:24:21,359 Speaker 1: fans got a chance. You know, at the end there 525 00:24:21,400 --> 00:24:23,480 Speaker 1: was a situation where they can hear for him coming 526 00:24:23,520 --> 00:24:26,480 Speaker 1: off there like it's amazing, man, Like, so I'm glad 527 00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:29,000 Speaker 1: he's a legend. He was able to be sent off 528 00:24:29,040 --> 00:24:31,600 Speaker 1: that way. He's earned the right to be sent off 529 00:24:31,640 --> 00:24:33,280 Speaker 1: that way, and I'm glad we could do that for him. Man, 530 00:24:33,400 --> 00:24:36,359 Speaker 1: you mentioned the young bucks. You would four basic starters 531 00:24:36,359 --> 00:24:38,040 Speaker 1: if you can't Corey in the slot out there, plus 532 00:24:38,119 --> 00:24:41,840 Speaker 1: Antoine and you obviously coming into help. Just is that 533 00:24:41,920 --> 00:24:44,720 Speaker 1: a taste of once these guys get going and figure 534 00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:47,760 Speaker 1: things out what they can be. And that's what I'm 535 00:24:47,760 --> 00:24:50,240 Speaker 1: pretty like. Giants have some a great fan base, and 536 00:24:50,320 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 1: most people understood that, like it's gonna be some growing things, 537 00:24:53,520 --> 00:24:54,840 Speaker 1: you know what I'm saying, Like you're gonna go through 538 00:24:54,840 --> 00:24:56,479 Speaker 1: the storm when you're when you're saying like, no, we're 539 00:24:56,520 --> 00:24:58,639 Speaker 1: gonna put our youth out there and let them get experienced, 540 00:24:58,680 --> 00:25:01,720 Speaker 1: let them play. And they played this is off today, 541 00:25:01,760 --> 00:25:03,960 Speaker 1: you know, like they played well today and the same 542 00:25:04,000 --> 00:25:06,119 Speaker 1: like things we're clicking. DeAndre Baker's in my opinion even 543 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:07,720 Speaker 1: know to touchout late. I felt like he had his 544 00:25:07,760 --> 00:25:09,680 Speaker 1: best game because now you know he had a great 545 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:11,680 Speaker 1: game against Philly, but now he's going against their number 546 00:25:11,680 --> 00:25:13,960 Speaker 1: one receiver in Duvante Parking, and he's having a great game. 547 00:25:14,480 --> 00:25:17,119 Speaker 1: Score touchdown late. But he stood up, Sam Bill, stood up, 548 00:25:17,160 --> 00:25:20,520 Speaker 1: make plays all day, Corey balancing standing up in the slut. 549 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:23,119 Speaker 1: You see Julian Love covering there. It's number one tight end, 550 00:25:23,160 --> 00:25:24,960 Speaker 1: you know, making plays on him all day. Like that's 551 00:25:25,000 --> 00:25:26,840 Speaker 1: what the future of this Giant secondary is gonna look like. 552 00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:29,040 Speaker 1: And they played well today. Empty great stuff, man, no 553 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:33,120 Speaker 1: problem than congratulations on the win. Michael Thomas. In fact, Mike, 554 00:25:33,320 --> 00:25:35,439 Speaker 1: let me at see one more thing. Actually, just how 555 00:25:35,480 --> 00:25:37,960 Speaker 1: important is the win? I mean what we needed that 556 00:25:38,000 --> 00:25:40,199 Speaker 1: in the worst way. But just just so we can 557 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,120 Speaker 1: see some smiles around his long room. Everybody or lax 558 00:25:43,240 --> 00:25:45,199 Speaker 1: like we can't do it. He show that, Hey, we 559 00:25:45,280 --> 00:25:47,639 Speaker 1: can go out there, fight for a full game, all 560 00:25:47,680 --> 00:25:49,679 Speaker 1: four quarters, sixty minutes, and come away with a win. Man. 561 00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:52,840 Speaker 1: Now we know year to year how much teams can 562 00:25:52,920 --> 00:25:55,120 Speaker 1: change and rosters can change. You know who's gonna be back. 563 00:25:55,160 --> 00:25:57,560 Speaker 1: But is there a value in your opinion in closing 564 00:25:57,560 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: a season strong? You always want to end. I don't 565 00:26:00,480 --> 00:26:01,720 Speaker 1: care what your work it is.

How how did you play when nothing else 568 00:26:07,040 --> 00:26:08,840 Speaker 1: really matters? You weren't playing for anything? What was your 569 00:26:09,119 --> 00:26:11,400 Speaker 1: You know, that's assessment to your character and how God 570 00:26:11,440 --> 00:26:14,000 Speaker 1: spot you know, even through the rough times.

He was sacked one time. Alex 662 00:29:49,000 --> 00:29:52,240 Speaker 1: Tanney then came in late and completed one pass for 663 00:29:52,320 --> 00:29:56,080 Speaker 1: a yard. The Giants Power Report and it certainly jumped 664 00:29:56,120 --> 00:29:57,960 Speaker 1: off the page today brought to you by P S 665 00:29:58,000 --> 00:30:01,080 Speaker 1: E n G committed to providing s for reliable energy 666 00:30:01,200 --> 00:30:04,280 Speaker 1: now and in the future. On the ground today, thirty 667 00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:07,440 Speaker 1: three runs for a hundred thirty eight yards over four 668 00:30:07,520 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 1: yards per carry. They also ran in three times for touchdowns. 669 00:30:11,000 --> 00:30:14,200 Speaker 1: Say Kwon Barkley ran twenty four times for hundred twelve 670 00:30:14,280 --> 00:30:16,959 Speaker 1: yards to touchdowns. This was the first time that he 671 00:30:17,240 --> 00:30:21,160 Speaker 1: reached the century mark on the ground since Week two 672 00:30:21,400 --> 00:30:23,560 Speaker 1: here at home against the Buffalo Bills. It had been 673 00:30:23,640 --> 00:30:26,840 Speaker 1: seven straight games in which he failed to reach the 674 00:30:26,920 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: century mark and he only had one run for no 675 00:30:30,800 --> 00:30:34,200 Speaker 1: game today. Everything outside of that was positive yardage. He 676 00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:36,880 Speaker 1: did have one run where he lost too, but it 677 00:30:36,920 --> 00:30:39,520 Speaker 1: was negated because of a Dolphins penalty with too many 678 00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:41,000 Speaker 1: men on the field, and then on the very next 679 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,640 Speaker 1: play he scored a touchdown. So the fact that they 680 00:30:43,680 --> 00:30:47,080 Speaker 1: didn't have runs that put them in precarious spots where 681 00:30:47,080 --> 00:30:49,720 Speaker 1: it backed them up and led to negative yardage. Was 682 00:30:49,760 --> 00:30:52,280 Speaker 1: a huge difference maker today and a big reason why 683 00:30:52,320 --> 00:30:54,920 Speaker 1: the Giants had one of their most productive games on 684 00:30:54,960 --> 00:30:57,760 Speaker 1: the ground. Forget in a while, you could certainly make 685 00:30:57,800 --> 00:30:59,959 Speaker 1: the argument in terms of the season. The hundred third 686 00:31:00,000 --> 00:31:02,160 Speaker 1: of eight yards on the ground as a team was 687 00:31:02,200 --> 00:31:04,560 Speaker 1: the third highest total this year. The high was one 688 00:31:04,600 --> 00:31:07,040 Speaker 1: sixty four against the Redskins in Week four, second was 689 00:31:07,080 --> 00:31:09,640 Speaker 1: one fifty one against the Cowboys in Week one, and 690 00:31:09,720 --> 00:31:12,520 Speaker 1: now a buck thirty eight here today, and because of 691 00:31:12,560 --> 00:31:16,400 Speaker 1: se Kwon Barkley's effort, he is our player of the game, 692 00:31:16,560 --> 00:31:19,160 Speaker 1: brought to you by the members and contractors of Local 693 00:31:19,240 --> 00:31:22,600 Speaker 1: eight twenty five Operating Engineers. He like a twenty five 694 00:31:22,640 --> 00:31:27,000 Speaker 1: building our future. Barkley in total in terms of his 695 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:31,000 Speaker 1: scrimmage yards a hundred forty three yards because he also 696 00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:33,680 Speaker 1: through the air chipped in with four catches for thirty 697 00:31:33,680 --> 00:31:35,920 Speaker 1: one yards. So when you look at Sae Kwon Barkley's career, 698 00:31:36,200 --> 00:31:38,840 Speaker 1: even though his numbers are down this year, this was 699 00:31:38,880 --> 00:31:42,440 Speaker 1: his twenty seven career game as a New York Giant, 700 00:31:42,880 --> 00:31:46,160 Speaker 1: and within those twenty seven career games he now has 701 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: had ten one hundred yard rushing performances and eighteen games 702 00:31:50,120 --> 00:31:53,280 Speaker 1: with at least one hundred scrimmage yards, and it was important, 703 00:31:53,280 --> 00:31:55,080 Speaker 1: as he mentioned in locker room and as he was 704 00:31:55,120 --> 00:31:57,080 Speaker 1: talking about all throughout the course of this week, to 705 00:31:57,080 --> 00:31:59,920 Speaker 1: get back on track because he felt as if mentally 706 00:32:00,120 --> 00:32:03,000 Speaker 1: he was thinking too much and perhaps dancing behind the 707 00:32:03,040 --> 00:32:05,680 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and not finding the necessary holes. Well, 708 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:07,719 Speaker 1: that was not a problem today, and this was one 709 00:32:07,760 --> 00:32:09,480 Speaker 1: of the first games that we could say it quite 710 00:32:09,520 --> 00:32:13,120 Speaker 1: some time where statistically it was a favorable matchup for 711 00:32:13,160 --> 00:32:16,640 Speaker 1: the Giants, and they took advantage of that favorable matchup 712 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,520 Speaker 1: because the Dolphins came in tied for thirty in the NFL, 713 00:32:19,880 --> 00:32:22,280 Speaker 1: giving up a hundred forty one rushing yards per game, 714 00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:24,120 Speaker 1: and then when you look at what the Giants put up, 715 00:32:24,320 --> 00:32:28,200 Speaker 1: they essentially matched the Dolphins average this season. And once again, 716 00:32:28,200 --> 00:32:31,080 Speaker 1: every single week we talked about how this opponent has 717 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:34,320 Speaker 1: this weakness, this opponent is vulnerable in this spot, and 718 00:32:34,360 --> 00:32:37,400 Speaker 1: the Giants very few times were actually able to capitalize 719 00:32:37,440 --> 00:32:40,840 Speaker 1: as a result. Sterling Shepard the leading receiver nine catches 720 00:32:40,840 --> 00:32:43,360 Speaker 1: for a hundred eleven yards. That was his second one 721 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,880 Speaker 1: hundred yard receiving game this season, and his first since 722 00:32:46,920 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 1: Week three at Tampa Bay when they got their first 723 00:32:50,120 --> 00:32:52,120 Speaker 1: win of the season. Golden Tate had one catch, just 724 00:32:52,200 --> 00:32:54,560 Speaker 1: for fifty one yards. It did go for a touchdown, 725 00:32:54,600 --> 00:32:56,640 Speaker 1: and for those of you keeping tally at home, it 726 00:32:56,720 --> 00:32:59,360 Speaker 1: was his second touchdown this season in which he deflected 727 00:32:59,360 --> 00:33:01,400 Speaker 1: the ball to him self and then ran it into 728 00:33:01,440 --> 00:33:03,840 Speaker 1: the end zone. He actually pulled off that feat against 729 00:33:03,880 --> 00:33:07,640 Speaker 1: the New England Patriots earlier this season. Cadan Smith continues 730 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:11,320 Speaker 1: to be productive as they go deeper into the tight 731 00:33:11,400 --> 00:33:14,560 Speaker 1: end depth chart. Three catches for thirty eight yards, including 732 00:33:14,560 --> 00:33:16,920 Speaker 1: a twenty seven yard grab, and Darius slayde in a 733 00:33:16,920 --> 00:33:20,040 Speaker 1: relatively quiet game based on his recent standards, but he 734 00:33:20,080 --> 00:33:22,080 Speaker 1: did find the end zone and Sladen now leads all 735 00:33:22,120 --> 00:33:25,600 Speaker 1: rookie wide receivers in the NFL with eight touchdown catches, 736 00:33:25,720 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 1: seven of which have come in the last seven games, 737 00:33:28,440 --> 00:33:32,640 Speaker 1: so that continuous surge is not slowing down. For the 738 00:33:32,680 --> 00:33:36,440 Speaker 1: fifth round pick for the Giants this year. The injury 739 00:33:36,480 --> 00:33:39,800 Speaker 1: report brought to you by Hackensack Britian Health Life Years Ahead. 740 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:43,400 Speaker 1: As Pat Summer mentioned in his postgame press conference, DeAndre 741 00:33:43,520 --> 00:33:46,440 Speaker 1: Baker banged up his knee but did return to the game. 742 00:33:46,480 --> 00:33:48,400 Speaker 1: Other than that it looks like the Giants got out 743 00:33:48,400 --> 00:33:51,240 Speaker 1: of this contest in relatively good shape. Let's flip over 744 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:54,720 Speaker 1: to the other side, the Dolphins. Ryan Fitzpatrick or forty 745 00:33:54,720 --> 00:33:58,440 Speaker 1: one two seventy nine yards, two touch now passes. The 746 00:33:58,560 --> 00:34:00,880 Speaker 1: key for the Giants today was to keep him in 747 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:05,000 Speaker 1: check with respect to his ability to run. Last week 748 00:34:05,040 --> 00:34:08,520 Speaker 1: against the Jets, seven rushes for sixty five yards, four 749 00:34:08,640 --> 00:34:11,400 Speaker 1: for thirty three. Today, he did not wreck the game 750 00:34:11,560 --> 00:34:14,279 Speaker 1: as a result of him taking off and on one 751 00:34:14,320 --> 00:34:17,279 Speaker 1: of his runs he got hit hard by alec Ogiltree. 752 00:34:17,600 --> 00:34:20,520 Speaker 1: Leonard Williams came over, forced the ball to pop out. 753 00:34:20,719 --> 00:34:22,759 Speaker 1: The Giants recovered a fumbolt and they weren't able to 754 00:34:22,760 --> 00:34:25,920 Speaker 1: take advantage because Eli Manning threw an interception shortly after that. 755 00:34:26,000 --> 00:34:27,640 Speaker 1: But you know, there have been a lot of games 756 00:34:27,640 --> 00:34:30,960 Speaker 1: this season Fitzpatrick has extended plays. He's also led the 757 00:34:31,000 --> 00:34:33,520 Speaker 1: team in rushing on the season, and for them to 758 00:34:33,560 --> 00:34:36,200 Speaker 1: hold him to just thirty three yards, it was certainly 759 00:34:36,239 --> 00:34:38,480 Speaker 1: a big step in the right direction. Patrick Lair, the 760 00:34:38,560 --> 00:34:41,080 Speaker 1: undrafted rookie had of cal finished with twelve carries to 761 00:34:41,160 --> 00:34:44,440 Speaker 1: forty six yards for the Dolphins. Davante Parker led the 762 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:48,640 Speaker 1: passing attack four catches seventy two yards Albert Wilson five 763 00:34:48,719 --> 00:34:52,280 Speaker 1: for fifty nine. Those two players came in questionable because 764 00:34:52,280 --> 00:34:55,760 Speaker 1: of concussions but were able to suit up, and Davante 765 00:34:55,840 --> 00:35:00,239 Speaker 1: Parker had the both touchdown receptions from Ryan fitzpat Rap. 766 00:35:00,360 --> 00:35:02,719 Speaker 1: The Giants were able to record three sacks and it 767 00:35:02,760 --> 00:35:05,320 Speaker 1: was really a matter of spreading the wealth once again. 768 00:35:05,680 --> 00:35:08,840 Speaker 1: Dalvin tomlins in with a sack as well as r. J. McIntosh. 769 00:35:08,960 --> 00:35:11,719 Speaker 1: Marcus Golden had half a sack, Oshane Zimminez had half. 770 00:35:11,880 --> 00:35:14,640 Speaker 1: Golden now has nine sacks on the season, which means 771 00:35:15,120 --> 00:35:17,600 Speaker 1: he actually may end another drought for the Giants if 772 00:35:17,600 --> 00:35:19,359 Speaker 1: he is able to record at least one more sack 773 00:35:19,480 --> 00:35:21,520 Speaker 1: over the next two games, because the Giants have not 774 00:35:21,640 --> 00:35:24,839 Speaker 1: had a player record double digit sacks in a single 775 00:35:24,880 --> 00:35:28,359 Speaker 1: season since JPP back in two thousand fourteen. Olivier Verne 776 00:35:28,440 --> 00:35:30,279 Speaker 1: came close. He had eight and a half in his 777 00:35:30,320 --> 00:35:32,480 Speaker 1: first year with the Giants at two thousand sixteen. So 778 00:35:32,800 --> 00:35:35,640 Speaker 1: Golden one more sack, they'll get back to double digits, 779 00:35:35,680 --> 00:35:39,520 Speaker 1: which remember was what he did in that final year 780 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:42,120 Speaker 1: in Arizona before he suffered the torn a c l 781 00:35:42,239 --> 00:35:43,680 Speaker 1: and there was a lot of talk about could he 782 00:35:43,800 --> 00:35:47,040 Speaker 1: tap back in to that potential that he showed before 783 00:35:47,080 --> 00:35:49,520 Speaker 1: the injury, and he certainly has answered that call and 784 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:52,480 Speaker 1: then some throughout the course of the season. One other 785 00:35:52,600 --> 00:35:55,040 Speaker 1: notable statistic when you look at the team stats in 786 00:35:55,080 --> 00:35:58,440 Speaker 1: this game a third down efficiency, or the lack thereof, 787 00:35:58,480 --> 00:35:59,960 Speaker 1: as I like to call it, because that has been 788 00:36:00,000 --> 00:36:02,040 Speaker 1: an absolute headache for the Giants and the fact that 789 00:36:02,080 --> 00:36:04,640 Speaker 1: they went five of eleven on third down today was 790 00:36:04,680 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 1: a huge step in the right direction. And then they 791 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:09,480 Speaker 1: held the Dolphins to three of thirteen. And the Dolphins 792 00:36:09,520 --> 00:36:11,600 Speaker 1: had a lot of third and longs in this game. 793 00:36:11,680 --> 00:36:15,000 Speaker 1: To be exact, they had seven downs for nine yards 794 00:36:15,120 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: or more and the Giants held them to just one 795 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,239 Speaker 1: conversion on those downs. That was huge. It was significant 796 00:36:20,400 --> 00:36:22,680 Speaker 1: because that had been an achilles heel for this Giants 797 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,239 Speaker 1: defense throughout the course of the season. And then you 798 00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:27,359 Speaker 1: know what happened obviously in the Eagles game on Monday night, 799 00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,640 Speaker 1: a tail of two halves with them struggling on third down, 800 00:36:29,640 --> 00:36:32,280 Speaker 1: and they were able to keep drives alive and finish 801 00:36:32,719 --> 00:36:35,600 Speaker 1: with touchdowns four for four in the red zone today 802 00:36:35,920 --> 00:36:38,960 Speaker 1: compared to the Dolphins just over two Miami had trouble 803 00:36:39,040 --> 00:36:41,560 Speaker 1: last week here against the Jets. They're oh for eight 804 00:36:41,560 --> 00:36:43,840 Speaker 1: in the red zone over their last two games. So 805 00:36:43,840 --> 00:36:45,760 Speaker 1: those are some of the stats that jump off the page. 806 00:36:45,800 --> 00:36:48,120 Speaker 1: Will step beside when we come back. We will take 807 00:36:48,120 --> 00:36:50,560 Speaker 1: it through the highlights. Is the Giants finally get back 808 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:54,280 Speaker 1: in the wind column a thirty six victory over Miami. 809 00:36:54,480 --> 00:36:56,719 Speaker 1: They improved to three and eleven overall, two and five 810 00:36:56,760 --> 00:36:59,360 Speaker 1: here in MetLife Stadium, and they can finally kiss that 811 00:36:59,440 --> 00:37:02,080 Speaker 1: nine game using streak Goodbye. We will be back right 812 00:37:02,080 --> 00:37:05,680 Speaker 1: after this.

Ryan 832 00:38:02,040 --> 00:38:04,360 Speaker 1: Fitzpatrick completed all six of his pass attempts on this 833 00:38:04,480 --> 00:38:07,279 Speaker 1: drive to five different targets, highlighted by two connections to 834 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:10,760 Speaker 1: Albert Wilson for thirty one total yards. Thanks to that clinic, 835 00:38:10,840 --> 00:38:13,040 Speaker 1: Miami face just one third down a third and three 836 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:15,840 Speaker 1: at the New York forty one. One of Fitzpatrick's completions 837 00:38:15,840 --> 00:38:17,759 Speaker 1: to Wilson moved the chains, and with a fresh set 838 00:38:17,760 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 1: of downs at the twenty, Fitzpatrick turned to one of 839 00:38:20,560 --> 00:38:24,040 Speaker 1: his other favorite targets. Fitzpatrick back looks left, throws right 840 00:38:24,200 --> 00:38:27,200 Speaker 1: right open, touchdown on the slant to the Mike day Parker. 841 00:38:29,360 --> 00:38:32,920 Speaker 1: It's beat them all season. Running the seam. And if 842 00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:35,600 Speaker 1: it's gonna beat you for thirteen weeks, it's gonna beat 843 00:38:35,640 --> 00:38:38,879 Speaker 1: you in your fourteenth game as well. That captain nine 844 00:38:38,920 --> 00:38:41,720 Speaker 1: play eighty nine yard drive in five forty four. Jason 845 00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:44,560 Speaker 1: Sanders tacked on the extra point. Dolphins struck first seven 846 00:38:44,560 --> 00:38:47,200 Speaker 1: nothing after the ensuing kickoff went for a touchback. Giants 847 00:38:47,239 --> 00:38:49,360 Speaker 1: took over at their own twenty five following an incomplete 848 00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:51,960 Speaker 1: pass to Darius Slayden and a se Kwan Barkley run 849 00:38:52,040 --> 00:38:54,439 Speaker 1: for no gain. On third and ten, Manning threw deep 850 00:38:54,440 --> 00:38:57,600 Speaker 1: down the left sideline to Slayden. Ball fell incomplete, but 851 00:38:57,640 --> 00:38:59,920 Speaker 1: Sladen was grand before attempting to make the catch at 852 00:39:00,040 --> 00:39:03,200 Speaker 1: twenty four yard. Pass interference penalty against Miami handed New 853 00:39:03,239 --> 00:39:05,439 Speaker 1: York a fresh set of downs at its own forty nine, 854 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,400 Speaker 1: and the Giant said thank you very much. So first 855 00:39:08,400 --> 00:39:13,040 Speaker 1: and ten Giants at their own forty nine. They get 856 00:39:13,040 --> 00:39:15,560 Speaker 1: the penalty on a third and ten, two receivers right 857 00:39:16,200 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: one split left, Barkley to the right of Banning and 858 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:22,960 Speaker 1: a shotgun set Manning out a play fake looks right, 859 00:39:23,000 --> 00:39:27,440 Speaker 1: throws right, passes put right face thanks a man this 860 00:39:27,680 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 1: in the five backs out of the end zone. For 861 00:39:29,640 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: a touchdown three play seventy five yards. It just over 862 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:36,520 Speaker 1: a minute. Aldre gross Has added the extra point. Game 863 00:39:36,600 --> 00:39:38,840 Speaker 1: was tied at seven after Miami was forced to punt. 864 00:39:39,000 --> 00:39:40,840 Speaker 1: Giants took over at their own one yard line and 865 00:39:40,880 --> 00:39:43,440 Speaker 1: put together a methodical drive that showed a nice balance 866 00:39:43,680 --> 00:39:46,000 Speaker 1: between the run and the past. Barkley ran four times 867 00:39:46,000 --> 00:39:48,800 Speaker 1: for twenty three total yards. Eli completed three passes for 868 00:39:48,960 --> 00:39:52,080 Speaker 1: seventeen two short ones to Barkley. Just like that, the 869 00:39:52,120 --> 00:39:54,399 Speaker 1: Giants face the second and two at the New York 870 00:39:54,440 --> 00:39:57,080 Speaker 1: forty one. Will Hernandez was called for a hold on 871 00:39:57,120 --> 00:40:00,080 Speaker 1: a Buck Allen negative two yard run, so second it 872 00:40:00,160 --> 00:40:02,759 Speaker 1: too became second and twelve at the New York thirty one. 873 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,440 Speaker 1: Eli looked to make up for that loss of yardage, 874 00:40:05,600 --> 00:40:08,080 Speaker 1: and it takes a shotgun snap back to throw and 875 00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:12,520 Speaker 1: it's intercepted, stopping in front of Shepherds Vince Pagel and 876 00:40:12,600 --> 00:40:15,919 Speaker 1: it gets tackled of the Giant twenty eight yard line. Yeah, 877 00:40:15,920 --> 00:40:19,040 Speaker 1: he sat right on that one. Miami had just ten 878 00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,399 Speaker 1: takeaways coming into this game, fewest in the NFL. They 879 00:40:22,400 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: wound up with three today, and turnovers has been a 880 00:40:24,840 --> 00:40:27,719 Speaker 1: big storyline this season for the Giants. Once again, it 881 00:40:27,800 --> 00:40:30,440 Speaker 1: came back to bite them as Miami cash that takeaway 882 00:40:30,600 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 1: into adjacent Sanders twenty four yard field goal following a 883 00:40:33,280 --> 00:40:36,160 Speaker 1: seven play twenty two yard drive that took just under 884 00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:38,560 Speaker 1: forty seconds off the clock. That moved the Dolphins in 885 00:40:38,600 --> 00:40:40,680 Speaker 1: front ten seven, and that would be the score at 886 00:40:40,680 --> 00:40:42,600 Speaker 1: the half. Giants got the ball to start the third 887 00:40:42,840 --> 00:40:45,520 Speaker 1: after Cody Latimer returned the opening kickoff twenty one yards 888 00:40:45,520 --> 00:40:47,239 Speaker 1: to the thirty yard line. On the very first play 889 00:40:47,239 --> 00:40:49,759 Speaker 1: of the drive, eli connected with Slated for twenty six 890 00:40:49,840 --> 00:40:52,319 Speaker 1: yards in New York was already in Miami territory at 891 00:40:52,360 --> 00:40:54,759 Speaker 1: the forty four. Three plays later, on third and three 892 00:40:54,760 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 1: from the thirty seven, Manning hooked up with Latimer for 893 00:40:57,160 --> 00:40:59,200 Speaker 1: twenty one and the Giants had a fresh set of 894 00:40:59,239 --> 00:41:01,960 Speaker 1: downs at the sixteen, a six yard run by Barkley 895 00:41:02,200 --> 00:41:04,279 Speaker 1: and then illegal use of the hands penalty against the 896 00:41:04,320 --> 00:41:06,840 Speaker 1: Dolphins moved the Giants closer to the end zone. With 897 00:41:06,880 --> 00:41:09,480 Speaker 1: a first and goal at the five, Elion Company had 898 00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:12,200 Speaker 1: a great opportunity to move in front for the first time. 899 00:41:12,320 --> 00:41:15,839 Speaker 1: Manning over center play fake back to throw host time 900 00:41:15,920 --> 00:41:18,440 Speaker 1: Nobody's opened up throws, it left into the NFL cutsdown 901 00:41:18,480 --> 00:41:27,719 Speaker 1: Giants Darius Lake. The protection was great. Manning had all 902 00:41:27,840 --> 00:41:31,800 Speaker 1: day and slate and uncovered. He had a year on 903 00:41:31,840 --> 00:41:34,080 Speaker 1: a Sunday to throw that ball. That kept a six play, 904 00:41:34,360 --> 00:41:37,399 Speaker 1: seventy yard drive in just over three minutes. Rosas tacked 905 00:41:37,400 --> 00:41:39,600 Speaker 1: on the extra point. Giants took a fourteen ten lead 906 00:41:39,640 --> 00:41:42,160 Speaker 1: after the ensuing kickoff went for a touchback. The Dolphins 907 00:41:42,160 --> 00:41:44,960 Speaker 1: took over at their own twenty five. Following two incomplete passes. 908 00:41:45,040 --> 00:41:47,880 Speaker 1: Ryan Fitzpatrick scrambled for five yards but coughed up the 909 00:41:47,880 --> 00:41:50,719 Speaker 1: football thanks to hits by Ogol Tree and Leonard Williams. 910 00:41:50,719 --> 00:41:53,040 Speaker 1: Sean Chandler recovered, and the Giants had a chance to 911 00:41:53,040 --> 00:41:55,880 Speaker 1: pad the lead with favorable field position first and ten 912 00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:58,520 Speaker 1: at the Miami thirty three. After Barkley picked up nine 913 00:41:58,560 --> 00:42:01,120 Speaker 1: yards rushing on consecutive play on third and one from 914 00:42:01,120 --> 00:42:03,640 Speaker 1: the twenty four, New York tried to catch Miami off 915 00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:07,480 Speaker 1: guard by going to the air third and one. They're 916 00:42:07,480 --> 00:42:10,400 Speaker 1: gonna throw it instead. Nobody's open now man. He fires 917 00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:13,480 Speaker 1: it over the middle of the press, intercepted, picked off 918 00:42:13,480 --> 00:42:17,759 Speaker 1: by Baker. Baker up the right side. Man he can't 919 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:20,040 Speaker 1: get into the ground, and finally shoved out of bounds 920 00:42:20,040 --> 00:42:24,480 Speaker 1: at midfield. One turnover led to another, Eli's third interception 921 00:42:24,520 --> 00:42:26,880 Speaker 1: of the game, second to a linebacker, and the Giants 922 00:42:26,920 --> 00:42:30,160 Speaker 1: couldn't capitalize on the takeaway. Dolphins ultimately settled for a 923 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,560 Speaker 1: Sanders forty seven yard field goal and pulled within one 924 00:42:32,880 --> 00:42:35,160 Speaker 1: fourteen third team with just under nine minutes to go 925 00:42:35,200 --> 00:42:37,400 Speaker 1: in the third. After the Giants were forced to punt, 926 00:42:37,400 --> 00:42:39,839 Speaker 1: Miami took over its own three yard line. A full 927 00:42:39,880 --> 00:42:42,440 Speaker 1: start penalty back the Dolphins up to the two, and 928 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:45,120 Speaker 1: the Giants had no interest, providing much more wiggle room. 929 00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:48,200 Speaker 1: Three tight ends to the right, which Patrick Crouch is 930 00:42:48,280 --> 00:42:50,759 Speaker 1: over center from his own one and a half for 931 00:42:50,920 --> 00:42:56,520 Speaker 1: Laird and drop for safety Julian Low where Sam Beale 932 00:42:56,560 --> 00:43:00,000 Speaker 1: gets the safety for the Giants. That was the Giants 933 00:43:00,040 --> 00:43:02,640 Speaker 1: turning point through the game. Listen to Boomerang GEO on 934 00:43:02,719 --> 00:43:05,200 Speaker 1: our flagship station w f A and tomorrow morning in 935 00:43:05,200 --> 00:43:07,800 Speaker 1: the nine am hour for the Giants Turning Point contest. 936 00:43:07,840 --> 00:43:10,200 Speaker 1: The first correct caller to name the game's turning point 937 00:43:10,200 --> 00:43:12,120 Speaker 1: we win a pair of tickets to the Giants play 938 00:43:12,160 --> 00:43:15,560 Speaker 1: against the Eagles on December twenty nine. In Week seventeen, 939 00:43:15,600 --> 00:43:17,800 Speaker 1: so Sam Bill tripped up later in the end zone, 940 00:43:17,960 --> 00:43:20,480 Speaker 1: and the Giants padded their lead sixteen thirteen after the 941 00:43:20,520 --> 00:43:23,920 Speaker 1: ensuing kickoff was returned by Demari Scott for thirty four yards. 942 00:43:23,920 --> 00:43:26,359 Speaker 1: Because New York, of course gets the football back, they 943 00:43:26,360 --> 00:43:29,160 Speaker 1: were once again in position to pad their lead as 944 00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:31,600 Speaker 1: they started to drive at to Miami forty man and 945 00:43:31,680 --> 00:43:34,640 Speaker 1: quickly connected with Sterling Shepard twice for thirty nine total yards. 946 00:43:34,680 --> 00:43:36,960 Speaker 1: Shephard was pushed out of play at the one on 947 00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:39,400 Speaker 1: the second catch, and the Giants had a first in 948 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:42,160 Speaker 1: goal at the one yard line. Barkley lost two yards, 949 00:43:42,360 --> 00:43:44,520 Speaker 1: but Miami had too many men on the field, so 950 00:43:44,560 --> 00:43:47,200 Speaker 1: it remained first in goal at the one, and Barkley 951 00:43:47,239 --> 00:43:50,920 Speaker 1: took advantage first to goal inside the one. I sat 952 00:43:51,080 --> 00:43:54,200 Speaker 1: pending in motion for the last hand off, Parker trying 953 00:43:54,239 --> 00:43:58,960 Speaker 1: to pounce it out siddenly roll for the touchdown. Three plays, 954 00:43:58,960 --> 00:44:01,719 Speaker 1: forty yards and just over a minute. Rosas tacked on 955 00:44:01,719 --> 00:44:04,239 Speaker 1: the extra point. It was a twenty thirteen Giants lead. 956 00:44:04,480 --> 00:44:06,480 Speaker 1: After the Dolphins went three and out, the Giants took 957 00:44:06,480 --> 00:44:08,680 Speaker 1: over at their own thirty four after picking up a 958 00:44:08,719 --> 00:44:11,160 Speaker 1: first down thanks to a pair of Barkley runs. A 959 00:44:11,200 --> 00:44:13,239 Speaker 1: few plays later, on second and eight at the New 960 00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:16,160 Speaker 1: York forty six yard line. ELI found Shepherd for twenty 961 00:44:16,160 --> 00:44:19,040 Speaker 1: four yards and the Giants once again entered Miami territory 962 00:44:19,320 --> 00:44:21,840 Speaker 1: first and ten at the thirty. Another pass the Shepherd 963 00:44:21,840 --> 00:44:24,279 Speaker 1: for five, followed by a pair of Barkley runs for 964 00:44:24,280 --> 00:44:27,160 Speaker 1: fifteen total yards and died the third quarter, setting up 965 00:44:27,160 --> 00:44:29,440 Speaker 1: a second and three at the ten, and to start 966 00:44:29,480 --> 00:44:32,520 Speaker 1: the fourth, Big Blue picked up exactly where it left 967 00:44:32,520 --> 00:44:35,759 Speaker 1: off in the third. Second and three at the Miami ten. 968 00:44:36,040 --> 00:44:40,920 Speaker 1: I sat behind Manning pending the full by handoff. Barkley 969 00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:43,239 Speaker 1: follows his block blocks using the tenth to the five, 970 00:44:43,280 --> 00:44:47,560 Speaker 1: and I'll go into the touchdown. That captain eight place 971 00:44:47,640 --> 00:44:50,720 Speaker 1: sixty six yard drive in four nineteen. That is today's 972 00:44:50,760 --> 00:44:53,000 Speaker 1: scoring drive in the game.

Giants didn't face 977 00:45:05,480 --> 00:45:08,080 Speaker 1: one third down on that drive. Barkley ran for at 978 00:45:08,120 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: least a hundred yards for the first time since Week 979 00:45:10,160 --> 00:45:13,080 Speaker 1: two against the Bills, ending a seven game drought. Rosas 980 00:45:13,120 --> 00:45:15,280 Speaker 1: tacked on the extra point to make it thirty to thirteen, 981 00:45:15,640 --> 00:45:17,839 Speaker 1: and the Giants would go on to win thirty six 982 00:45:17,880 --> 00:45:21,120 Speaker 1: twenty two, snap that nine game losing streak as they 983 00:45:21,160 --> 00:45:23,880 Speaker 1: get back on the winning track and record their third 984 00:45:23,920 --> 00:45:27,840 Speaker 1: win of the season, their second here at MetLife Stadium. 985 00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:30,480 Speaker 1: We will step aside.

Thanks so much for standing with us 999 00:46:10,200 --> 00:46:13,200 Speaker 1: here as we're recapping the Giants thirty six twenty victory 1000 00:46:13,239 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 1: over the Dolphins at MetLife Stadium here in East Rutherford, 1001 00:46:16,800 --> 00:46:19,799 Speaker 1: New Jersey, as the Giants finally snapped that nine game 1002 00:46:19,840 --> 00:46:22,479 Speaker 1: losing streak. They get their first win since Week four 1003 00:46:22,640 --> 00:46:26,720 Speaker 1: here at home against the Redskins back on September twenty nine. 1004 00:46:26,840 --> 00:46:29,520 Speaker 1: The network more people rely on, gives you more get 1005 00:46:29,520 --> 00:46:32,560 Speaker 1: amazing rewards like NFL tickets and once in a lifetime 1006 00:46:32,560 --> 00:46:38,480 Speaker 1: experiences with Verizon up only on Verizon. So the Giants 1007 00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:41,160 Speaker 1: were able to record the victory as a result of 1008 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:45,440 Speaker 1: a lot of positive trends here Carl and production that 1009 00:46:45,480 --> 00:46:48,040 Speaker 1: went in the opposite direction of what we've seen over 1010 00:46:48,080 --> 00:46:49,880 Speaker 1: the last few weeks. And I want to start with 1011 00:46:49,920 --> 00:46:53,360 Speaker 1: the rushing attack because s Kwan Barkley had gone seven 1012 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:56,280 Speaker 1: straight games without getting to the century mark. He gets 1013 00:46:56,360 --> 00:46:59,160 Speaker 1: over a hundred rushing yards a hundred forty three scrimmage yards. 1014 00:46:59,160 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 1: But to me, what is impressive, Carl. They avoided the 1015 00:47:01,920 --> 00:47:05,720 Speaker 1: negative plays on the ground. There were no negative runs 1016 00:47:05,760 --> 00:47:08,080 Speaker 1: from se Kwon Barkley. He only had one run for 1017 00:47:08,160 --> 00:47:12,799 Speaker 1: no gain. Outside of that, everything was positive. Well, I think, um, 1018 00:47:12,840 --> 00:47:15,399 Speaker 1: that is probably the best news of back at half. 1019 00:47:16,640 --> 00:47:21,279 Speaker 1: But I think the I think the un I don't 1020 00:47:21,280 --> 00:47:24,640 Speaker 1: want to say the hidden part of that yardage, but 1021 00:47:24,760 --> 00:47:29,680 Speaker 1: the the the factor, the thing that gets factored in 1022 00:47:30,280 --> 00:47:34,160 Speaker 1: that will often get looked over is what Eli Manning 1023 00:47:34,239 --> 00:47:37,840 Speaker 1: brings to your offensive line in terms of getting everybody 1024 00:47:37,880 --> 00:47:42,200 Speaker 1: in something that can have success. Um, you can always 1025 00:47:42,480 --> 00:47:46,000 Speaker 1: I mean, there's always a possibility that the guy in 1026 00:47:46,040 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: front of you can beat you, that he's more talented 1027 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:52,240 Speaker 1: than you. But the one thing that we saw today 1028 00:47:52,520 --> 00:47:56,560 Speaker 1: everybody on the same page. There were no miss blocks. Now, 1029 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,600 Speaker 1: you give the offensive lineman a ton of credit too, 1030 00:47:59,600 --> 00:48:02,680 Speaker 1: because they are playing with a little pride about them too. 1031 00:48:02,719 --> 00:48:06,759 Speaker 1: But you're running back hits the line of scrimmage. He's 1032 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:10,760 Speaker 1: getting three, four or five yards before he's on the ground. 1033 00:48:10,800 --> 00:48:14,040 Speaker 1: That's a beautiful thing. And even in their short yarded situations, 1034 00:48:14,640 --> 00:48:18,359 Speaker 1: there was no guy that missed the block and had 1035 00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:21,440 Speaker 1: a guy in the backfield before they came start to play. 1036 00:48:22,080 --> 00:48:24,440 Speaker 1: I had an opportunity to set up the play essentially 1037 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:26,600 Speaker 1: based on what you're saying. And also when you could 1038 00:48:26,640 --> 00:48:28,960 Speaker 1: get se Kwon Barkley Carl to your point to the 1039 00:48:29,040 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 1: second layer of the defense before he's initially touched, you'll 1040 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:34,799 Speaker 1: take that matchup any time you can get it. Oh, 1041 00:48:34,840 --> 00:48:40,120 Speaker 1: you absolutely will, because I said it on the on 1042 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:43,280 Speaker 1: the broadcast that he's got a new battery in his joystick. 1043 00:48:43,360 --> 00:48:46,800 Speaker 1: Now you could tell that that, you know, that herkey 1044 00:48:46,880 --> 00:48:50,640 Speaker 1: jerky that he had the dancing, Yeah, you know, the 1045 00:48:50,680 --> 00:48:54,640 Speaker 1: herky jerky meaning make you miss type of stuff is back, 1046 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,799 Speaker 1: and he's got the burst back. In the visions back 1047 00:48:58,960 --> 00:49:01,759 Speaker 1: you could all see that they're all ento triumph. So 1048 00:49:01,880 --> 00:49:05,000 Speaker 1: when something wasn't working, which was the ankle, we knew 1049 00:49:05,040 --> 00:49:08,399 Speaker 1: that it made him compensate in other areas and made 1050 00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:11,799 Speaker 1: him doubt other things. Today it was the best he's 1051 00:49:11,880 --> 00:49:15,000 Speaker 1: looked in a long time. Yeah, popping out joins us well. 1052 00:49:15,040 --> 00:49:18,279 Speaker 1: And yeah, and here's the other thing. When we talked about, uh, 1053 00:49:18,560 --> 00:49:22,919 Speaker 1: forty two of the Giants third down attempts this year 1054 00:49:23,960 --> 00:49:27,720 Speaker 1: have been nine or more yards, right in this game, 1055 00:49:27,920 --> 00:49:31,959 Speaker 1: of their eleven attempts, only two were nine or more yards, 1056 00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:35,520 Speaker 1: which means you're staying on schedule, which enables you to 1057 00:49:35,560 --> 00:49:37,839 Speaker 1: do exactly what you and Karl are talking about. Run 1058 00:49:37,920 --> 00:49:41,839 Speaker 1: the ball, and the Giants this season have only had 1059 00:49:41,960 --> 00:49:45,319 Speaker 1: seventeen third and once all season. Coming into the game. 1060 00:49:45,880 --> 00:49:49,319 Speaker 1: They had four in the game today, and of they 1061 00:49:49,360 --> 00:49:52,399 Speaker 1: had four third and ones, and then you attack on 1062 00:49:52,760 --> 00:49:56,359 Speaker 1: three more third downs between two and four yards and 1063 00:49:56,440 --> 00:50:00,319 Speaker 1: suddenly seven of your eleven attempts or four yards or less, 1064 00:50:01,040 --> 00:50:04,759 Speaker 1: which means that the not having the negative runs early huge. 1065 00:50:05,440 --> 00:50:07,840 Speaker 1: Even though they were only getting one or two or three, 1066 00:50:08,840 --> 00:50:10,960 Speaker 1: it wasn't a loss of three and suddenly second and 1067 00:50:11,000 --> 00:50:13,080 Speaker 1: thirteen because this team is not built to get out 1068 00:50:13,080 --> 00:50:15,600 Speaker 1: of that hole. So it kind of all works in 1069 00:50:15,719 --> 00:50:18,400 Speaker 1: conjunction with then you're able to get more rushing attempts 1070 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:20,480 Speaker 1: because you are moving the chains a little bit. And 1071 00:50:20,520 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 1: there were also drives Bob in this game where they 1072 00:50:22,640 --> 00:50:25,480 Speaker 1: completely avoided third down where you're talking about it was 1073 00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:27,640 Speaker 1: just first and second down, and that really has been 1074 00:50:27,680 --> 00:50:30,520 Speaker 1: unheard of guys this season because we've been talking about 1075 00:50:30,520 --> 00:50:33,040 Speaker 1: the third down struggles. Is Bob documented with some of 1076 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:36,040 Speaker 1: the statistics. The last two games they were converting just 1077 00:50:36,120 --> 00:50:38,480 Speaker 1: twenty percent of the time Carl on third down and 1078 00:50:38,560 --> 00:50:41,680 Speaker 1: today five of eleven, mainly because of what Bob said, 1079 00:50:41,880 --> 00:50:45,160 Speaker 1: manageable downs, but they took advantage of those manageable downs 1080 00:50:45,160 --> 00:50:48,399 Speaker 1: because they've had manageable downs, they just haven't capitalized. And 1081 00:50:48,480 --> 00:50:51,359 Speaker 1: again the kind of hidden factor in all of this 1082 00:50:51,440 --> 00:50:55,120 Speaker 1: is the experience of a guy who knows how to 1083 00:50:56,640 --> 00:51:02,080 Speaker 1: see pressure coming, meaning before the balls even snapped, to 1084 00:51:02,160 --> 00:51:04,920 Speaker 1: try to alert guys, or as Howard said, he it's 1085 00:51:05,160 --> 00:51:08,839 Speaker 1: too paraphrase. He likes to coach him up when he's 1086 00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:12,360 Speaker 1: out there on the field. So that comes with experience. 1087 00:51:12,360 --> 00:51:15,000 Speaker 1: Though that's not a knock on Daniel Jones. That's just 1088 00:51:15,160 --> 00:51:17,840 Speaker 1: the experience of a guy who's seen just about everything, 1089 00:51:18,360 --> 00:51:21,320 Speaker 1: who can tell guys, this guy's a blitzer, this guy's 1090 00:51:21,360 --> 00:51:24,200 Speaker 1: a alert, this, alert that, And if they've got to 1091 00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:26,439 Speaker 1: change to the run from one side to the other, 1092 00:51:26,520 --> 00:51:28,960 Speaker 1: the past to one side to the other, or a 1093 00:51:29,040 --> 00:51:32,080 Speaker 1: different route for the coverage. The downside of that is, 1094 00:51:32,640 --> 00:51:35,680 Speaker 1: you know, sometimes the receivers don't run the right route, 1095 00:51:35,680 --> 00:51:40,239 Speaker 1: and um, offensive linemen don't get the message. But the 1096 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,880 Speaker 1: offensive line did. Offensive line did a good job today 1097 00:51:44,160 --> 00:51:46,319 Speaker 1: set the tone of the trenches. That's been a big 1098 00:51:46,320 --> 00:51:48,840 Speaker 1: part of the identity the franchise. And I'm gonna just 1099 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:50,200 Speaker 1: say this because i know I'm gonna read it a 1100 00:51:50,280 --> 00:51:53,440 Speaker 1: lot in the next forty eight hours. Well, they just 1101 00:51:53,600 --> 00:51:57,520 Speaker 1: beat the Dolphins, right, Oh, they only beat the Dolphs 1102 00:51:57,560 --> 00:52:00,880 Speaker 1: with you guys, so excited about three two. Well, guess 1103 00:52:00,880 --> 00:52:04,960 Speaker 1: what you are. You're a to win team. So you um, 1104 00:52:05,120 --> 00:52:07,160 Speaker 1: you went up and you did what you're supposed to do. 1105 00:52:07,239 --> 00:52:10,760 Speaker 1: Because normally in games that you're supposed to win, teams 1106 00:52:10,840 --> 00:52:13,360 Speaker 1: take dantage of you. Well, they get right game is 1107 00:52:13,400 --> 00:52:16,040 Speaker 1: what we call it, Carl. So for once, they did 1108 00:52:16,040 --> 00:52:19,640 Speaker 1: not make the Dolphins get right, they made themselves get 1109 00:52:19,719 --> 00:52:22,439 Speaker 1: right to your point and real quickly before we part 1110 00:52:22,440 --> 00:52:25,080 Speaker 1: ways with the network, Third Down to Me also told 1111 00:52:25,080 --> 00:52:28,600 Speaker 1: the story on defense today because the Dolphins had seven 1112 00:52:28,640 --> 00:52:31,840 Speaker 1: downs for nine yards or more and Miami converted just 1113 00:52:32,000 --> 00:52:34,480 Speaker 1: one of them and was over five in the second 1114 00:52:34,520 --> 00:52:36,520 Speaker 1: half of Carl. This was a big test for a 1115 00:52:36,560 --> 00:52:39,000 Speaker 1: young secondary across the board, and for the most part, 1116 00:52:39,040 --> 00:52:41,680 Speaker 1: they held up. Yeah, and you know, people ask, what 1117 00:52:41,719 --> 00:52:44,080 Speaker 1: are you looking at in the last season. You're looking 1118 00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:48,120 Speaker 1: for growth. You're looking for growth in the young secondary. Again, 1119 00:52:48,800 --> 00:52:52,879 Speaker 1: DeAndre Baker, this is two weeks in a row where 1120 00:52:52,920 --> 00:52:56,759 Speaker 1: you've seen this kid's confidence grow. And it's not just 1121 00:52:56,880 --> 00:53:00,200 Speaker 1: the competition that he's going up against. It's how he's 1122 00:53:00,200 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: applying the techniques, is how he's working on you know, 1123 00:53:04,440 --> 00:53:06,480 Speaker 1: just I'll give you example to touchdown the day kan 1124 00:53:06,600 --> 00:53:10,000 Speaker 1: on him today. He played it as good as you 1125 00:53:10,040 --> 00:53:13,560 Speaker 1: can for a rookie. Um. He just the receiver just 1126 00:53:13,640 --> 00:53:17,080 Speaker 1: out maneuvered him at the end because he recognized around. 1127 00:53:17,080 --> 00:53:20,600 Speaker 1: He got his body in position. Ball is a little 1128 00:53:20,600 --> 00:53:23,920 Speaker 1: longer he intercepts it. But I mean, you see so 1129 00:53:24,040 --> 00:53:27,080 Speaker 1: many good good things from the growth of a guy 1130 00:53:27,120 --> 00:53:29,600 Speaker 1: like him and Julian Love. And one of the things 1131 00:53:29,600 --> 00:53:32,360 Speaker 1: Michael Thomas said in the locker room is you expect 1132 00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:34,719 Speaker 1: growing pains with young guys. But now all of a sudden, 1133 00:53:34,800 --> 00:53:37,360 Speaker 1: DeAndre Baker is going up against the top opposing wide 1134 00:53:37,360 --> 00:53:40,120 Speaker 1: receiver and he's handling his own. His call just mentioned 1135 00:53:40,160 --> 00:53:43,200 Speaker 1: with respect to Davante Parker. Well, we are going to 1136 00:53:43,239 --> 00:53:45,839 Speaker 1: be back on the fan in New York to take 1137 00:53:45,880 --> 00:53:48,160 Speaker 1: your calls in just a second. But right now we 1138 00:53:48,239 --> 00:53:51,640 Speaker 1: say goodbye to the affiliates on our radio network.
