The giants are two and Oh, 11 00:00:39,479 --> 00:00:43,040 Speaker 1: for the first time since two thousand sixteen, topping the 12 00:00:43,080 --> 00:00:47,120 Speaker 1: Carolina Panthers Nineteen to sixteen here at metlife stadium in 13 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:50,360 Speaker 1: East Rutherford, New Jersey, as the giants were able to 14 00:00:50,560 --> 00:00:54,400 Speaker 1: grind out another close affair that came down to the wire. 15 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:57,160 Speaker 1: Alongside Bob Pop and Carl Banks. Lance medal with you 16 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,720 Speaker 1: and Carl. When you look at how they fin this game, 17 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,400 Speaker 1: especially based on how they started. They only had eight 18 00:01:03,440 --> 00:01:06,160 Speaker 1: carries for no yardage at the half on the ground, 19 00:01:06,200 --> 00:01:09,920 Speaker 1: but se Kwon, Barkley Daniel Jones able to get some 20 00:01:10,040 --> 00:01:12,920 Speaker 1: chunk age on the ground on those final two drives 21 00:01:13,080 --> 00:01:15,000 Speaker 1: to set up the go ahead field goal as well 22 00:01:15,000 --> 00:01:16,840 Speaker 1: as seal it and run out the clock. Well, I 23 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,640 Speaker 1: think what they're finding out is they're learning each other 24 00:01:20,760 --> 00:01:25,560 Speaker 1: as a group, team, coach, player scheme, and what worked 25 00:01:25,600 --> 00:01:29,080 Speaker 1: last week didn't work this week. They could not pull 26 00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: a guard and have the same success, to run the 27 00:01:31,480 --> 00:01:34,320 Speaker 1: daylight success that they had last week. So they had 28 00:01:34,360 --> 00:01:36,319 Speaker 1: to go with quick hitters and tell Barkley they just 29 00:01:36,360 --> 00:01:39,560 Speaker 1: get behind the guy and it will open up. They 30 00:01:39,560 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: didn't get to that until the second half of the game. 31 00:01:44,319 --> 00:01:47,319 Speaker 1: Similar to last week, they're trying, they're probing around, trying 32 00:01:47,360 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: to figure out what worked, and then they finally got 33 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,880 Speaker 1: to it by running through, running the offense through Barkley 34 00:01:53,960 --> 00:01:58,320 Speaker 1: last week. This time they started to give the panthers 35 00:01:58,960 --> 00:02:02,800 Speaker 1: defense a lot of movement, meaning running angles that creating 36 00:02:03,440 --> 00:02:05,800 Speaker 1: leverage points to where I'm crossing routes, you can hit 37 00:02:05,800 --> 00:02:07,960 Speaker 1: a guy in the flat and they started to pull 38 00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:10,560 Speaker 1: guys out of the box and that was that enabled 39 00:02:10,600 --> 00:02:13,560 Speaker 1: them to really get the offense going in the second half, 40 00:02:13,960 --> 00:02:15,480 Speaker 1: which just goes to show you the way that you 41 00:02:15,520 --> 00:02:17,600 Speaker 1: have to beat Carolina very different than the way you 42 00:02:17,639 --> 00:02:20,280 Speaker 1: go about your business with Tennessee. The other thing that 43 00:02:20,320 --> 00:02:22,320 Speaker 1: came to light, Bob, is the fact that we were 44 00:02:22,320 --> 00:02:24,280 Speaker 1: talking about this all of last season, but now it's 45 00:02:24,280 --> 00:02:27,280 Speaker 1: more of a complimentary fact. Graham Gano a true weapon 46 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:29,000 Speaker 1: for the giants. Four for four in terms of his 47 00:02:29,000 --> 00:02:30,960 Speaker 1: field goals at a big fifty six yarder to put 48 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:33,280 Speaker 1: him ahead. Yeah, I mean he's been he's been great 49 00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:36,600 Speaker 1: since he's been brought here. Um, and you know the 50 00:02:37,000 --> 00:02:38,880 Speaker 1: two years ago he only had the one miss kick 51 00:02:38,919 --> 00:02:41,040 Speaker 1: and that was the end of the half, a really 52 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:44,200 Speaker 1: long try. But Um, you know, they played to their 53 00:02:44,240 --> 00:02:47,880 Speaker 1: profile on the sense that, yeah, they kicked field goals, 54 00:02:47,880 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 1: they had confidence in their defense. Other than the one 55 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:54,120 Speaker 1: drive in which Carolina went downfield and scored touchdowns. They 56 00:02:54,120 --> 00:02:57,760 Speaker 1: held in the field goals. Wick Martindale is now six 57 00:02:57,800 --> 00:03:00,320 Speaker 1: and three lifetime against Baker Mayfield, going back to when 58 00:03:00,320 --> 00:03:03,680 Speaker 1: Mayfield was the quarterback of the browns. Um, you know, 59 00:03:03,760 --> 00:03:07,720 Speaker 1: he's held him to a quarterback rating of, you know, 60 00:03:08,000 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: now under eighty, with maker having with Baker having a 61 00:03:11,280 --> 00:03:14,720 Speaker 1: seventy four point six today. And Uh, you know, Daniel 62 00:03:14,800 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: Jones made some opportune plays when he needed to Um. 63 00:03:18,600 --> 00:03:22,200 Speaker 1: I thought in the first half there were some opportunities 64 00:03:22,240 --> 00:03:25,400 Speaker 1: for him to make some throws and he just wasn't 65 00:03:25,400 --> 00:03:26,920 Speaker 1: cutting it loose. I think when they go back and 66 00:03:26,960 --> 00:03:28,960 Speaker 1: look at the film, you know there were a couple 67 00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: of times where Tony and some other guys were open 68 00:03:31,280 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 1: and Jones just wouldn't throw it. I'm not sure if 69 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:36,560 Speaker 1: that's because he's not trusting the protection at all or what, 70 00:03:36,880 --> 00:03:40,520 Speaker 1: but yeah, Bob Bob, I think it's it. It's still 71 00:03:40,560 --> 00:03:43,640 Speaker 1: comes down they're learning each other and I still say 72 00:03:43,640 --> 00:03:47,480 Speaker 1: that Daniel was a little bit robotic in terms of 73 00:03:47,520 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: just making sure he goes through everything that they want 74 00:03:49,880 --> 00:03:52,280 Speaker 1: him to do and not making a mistake. And then 75 00:03:52,320 --> 00:03:54,960 Speaker 1: you could see in the second half he started to 76 00:03:54,960 --> 00:03:56,840 Speaker 1: turn it loose a little bit, started to feel a 77 00:03:56,840 --> 00:04:01,360 Speaker 1: lot better. In no better example of that the closing game, 78 00:04:01,480 --> 00:04:07,200 Speaker 1: the closing scramble of the game, was him being Daniel Jones. 79 00:04:07,880 --> 00:04:10,400 Speaker 1: Good Daniel Jones pick up eleven yards on that run. 80 00:04:10,440 --> 00:04:13,360 Speaker 1: That called just references the giant seal in Nineteen Sixteen 81 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 1: victory over the panthers.

It 117 00:06:09,839 --> 00:06:12,000 Speaker 1: was very much a grinded out type of game for 118 00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: this team and I think the other thing to note 119 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:16,360 Speaker 1: in these two games that came down to late field 120 00:06:16,360 --> 00:06:18,880 Speaker 1: goals that, you know, turned into two wins for the giants. 121 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:22,160 Speaker 1: In these type of tight, low scoring, close games, as 122 00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:24,719 Speaker 1: much as the other team can beat you it's often 123 00:06:24,839 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: you making a poor player a bad play that can 124 00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:31,160 Speaker 1: lose the game for you. Tom Coughlin always said Games 125 00:06:31,200 --> 00:06:34,200 Speaker 1: are lost more than their one in the national football league. 126 00:06:34,200 --> 00:06:36,039 Speaker 1: And the giants late in these last two games, the 127 00:06:36,080 --> 00:06:37,920 Speaker 1: first two weeks of the year, their two and l 128 00:06:37,920 --> 00:06:40,960 Speaker 1: because they did not make any critical mistakes late in 129 00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:43,600 Speaker 1: these games to cost themselves victories and they over to 130 00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:46,440 Speaker 1: hold on and get too hard for close wins. Thirty 131 00:06:46,480 --> 00:06:49,520 Speaker 1: three carries for a hundred three yards. As a team. 132 00:06:49,560 --> 00:06:52,919 Speaker 1: They had three negative runs out of their eight runs, 133 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:54,760 Speaker 1: John in the first half and then in the second 134 00:06:54,760 --> 00:06:57,520 Speaker 1: half they wound up just with two negative runs. So, 135 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:00,160 Speaker 1: to your point, it's not the fact that they had 136 00:07:00,200 --> 00:07:03,520 Speaker 1: maybe the explosive plays that was present against Tennessee in 137 00:07:03,520 --> 00:07:05,320 Speaker 1: the second half. It was the fact that they were 138 00:07:05,440 --> 00:07:07,640 Speaker 1: staying ahead of the chains and putting them at least 139 00:07:07,680 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 1: in position to, a worse, walk away with some points 140 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:15,360 Speaker 1: through field goals. Yeah, Nick Lad Lance, no question about it, 141 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 1: and I think you know when, when you take a 142 00:07:17,320 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: look at a game like this, you have to say 143 00:07:18,800 --> 00:07:21,160 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley, uh, that's what you try to do, and 144 00:07:21,160 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 1: those negative plays can kill you. Latent Games and the 145 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:27,160 Speaker 1: giants have managed to avoid those and, frankly, especially the turnovers. 146 00:07:27,200 --> 00:07:29,200 Speaker 1: And I think the giants have avoided those, you know, 147 00:07:29,240 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 1: second half turnovers. They had the interception lead in the 148 00:07:31,520 --> 00:07:33,960 Speaker 1: end zone in week one, but this week they played 149 00:07:33,960 --> 00:07:36,480 Speaker 1: a clean half of football, turnover wise, and you know, 150 00:07:36,520 --> 00:07:38,200 Speaker 1: it's a big reason that we're sitting here with the 151 00:07:38,200 --> 00:07:40,080 Speaker 1: giants at two and out of the first time in 152 00:07:40,160 --> 00:07:43,400 Speaker 1: quite a long time. Absolutely two thousand sixteen to be exact. 153 00:07:43,440 --> 00:07:46,120 Speaker 1: Now you brought up turnovers and a big storyline in 154 00:07:46,160 --> 00:07:48,080 Speaker 1: these game, despite the fact that the giants did pull 155 00:07:48,120 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: it out and one by three, is the fact that 156 00:07:50,200 --> 00:07:52,400 Speaker 1: there was an opportunity for them to pull away in 157 00:07:52,440 --> 00:07:55,440 Speaker 1: the first half. You have Chuba Hubbard fumbling on the 158 00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:58,680 Speaker 1: opening kickoff. That gave the giants great field position at 159 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,520 Speaker 1: the Caroline at twenty two, and then you have another 160 00:08:01,560 --> 00:08:04,200 Speaker 1: fumble by robby Anderson, giving the giants the ball the 161 00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:07,679 Speaker 1: Carolina Forty, and that came pretty much back to back. 162 00:08:07,760 --> 00:08:10,280 Speaker 1: Yet the giants only walked away with a pair of 163 00:08:10,320 --> 00:08:12,480 Speaker 1: field goals and it was a six six game at 164 00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:16,120 Speaker 1: the half. It still comes back to capitalizing and turning 165 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:20,160 Speaker 1: those takeaways into actual scoring points through a touchdown. Yeah, 166 00:08:20,240 --> 00:08:21,880 Speaker 1: no question about a lans and, and and you know Bob 167 00:08:21,920 --> 00:08:26,000 Speaker 1: and crawl can speak to this too, that the first week, 168 00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,120 Speaker 1: scoring two touchdowns and those red zone trips were a 169 00:08:29,200 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: huge part of getting that win. They weren't down there 170 00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,800 Speaker 1: much because they scored two touchdowns of three appearances and obviously, whenever, whenever, 171 00:08:34,800 --> 00:08:36,079 Speaker 1: the kicker is gonna be the player of the game, 172 00:08:36,120 --> 00:08:38,840 Speaker 1: like Graham Gano was today. For us, that probably means 173 00:08:38,880 --> 00:08:40,760 Speaker 1: that the red zone attack wasn't as good. I think 174 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:42,439 Speaker 1: it comes down to the run game not being as 175 00:08:42,440 --> 00:08:45,160 Speaker 1: consistent down there in that area. We all know it's 176 00:08:45,160 --> 00:08:46,760 Speaker 1: hard to throw when you're deep in the red zone. 177 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:49,000 Speaker 1: There's not a lot of space, but you know you 178 00:08:49,040 --> 00:08:50,880 Speaker 1: need to run the football and the run game wasn't 179 00:08:50,920 --> 00:08:54,000 Speaker 1: quite as consistent this week as it was last weekend. 180 00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:55,439 Speaker 1: Throwing the fact that there warn't as many of those 181 00:08:55,480 --> 00:08:57,880 Speaker 1: big explosive plays to set up those touchdowns. Put those 182 00:08:57,880 --> 00:08:59,760 Speaker 1: two together. That's why I think it was more of 183 00:08:59,760 --> 00:09:02,480 Speaker 1: a legal game for the giants offense today rather than 184 00:09:02,480 --> 00:09:04,680 Speaker 1: a game where they scored a lot of touchdowns. Giants 185 00:09:04,679 --> 00:09:07,240 Speaker 1: one for three in the red zone. We were awaiting 186 00:09:07,280 --> 00:09:11,120 Speaker 1: Brian Dable, who should be addressing reporters shortly. John Schmulk 187 00:09:11,120 --> 00:09:13,760 Speaker 1: will keep us updated, as he has moderately, the situation 188 00:09:13,800 --> 00:09:17,360 Speaker 1: absolutely downstairs. Appreciate that, with the giants beating the Panthers 189 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:20,679 Speaker 1: Nineteen to sixteen and Baba, want to bring you back 190 00:09:20,720 --> 00:09:23,040 Speaker 1: into the dialogue because what I was just talking about 191 00:09:23,120 --> 00:09:26,679 Speaker 1: with John is missed opportunities early in this game and granted, 192 00:09:26,720 --> 00:09:29,920 Speaker 1: the giants defense really deserves credit in the second half 193 00:09:30,000 --> 00:09:33,080 Speaker 1: because Carolina looked like they could have maybe pulled away 194 00:09:33,080 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: with things. Baker heads D J Moore in the corner 195 00:09:34,920 --> 00:09:36,320 Speaker 1: of the end zone and all of a sudden it 196 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:39,520 Speaker 1: seems like momentum ships. But the defense kept Baker on 197 00:09:39,559 --> 00:09:41,719 Speaker 1: his toes and didn't allow the panthers to finish a 198 00:09:41,720 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: bulk of their drives to the second half. Yeah, after 199 00:09:43,679 --> 00:09:48,040 Speaker 1: that touchdown pass, Mayfield was one for eight for two yards. 200 00:09:48,800 --> 00:09:51,160 Speaker 1: Uh in the ensuing passes that he threw. Now they 201 00:09:51,200 --> 00:09:54,600 Speaker 1: gave up the one gash play, the McCaffrey forty nine 202 00:09:54,640 --> 00:09:58,040 Speaker 1: yard run, but other than that they did a pretty 203 00:09:58,080 --> 00:10:00,720 Speaker 1: good job of kind of keeping things under wrap, so 204 00:10:00,800 --> 00:10:03,600 Speaker 1: to speak, you know, and kind of just taking care 205 00:10:03,600 --> 00:10:07,960 Speaker 1: of business in this football game and, you know, getting 206 00:10:08,000 --> 00:10:10,880 Speaker 1: it done when they needed to, and I thought Se Quan, 207 00:10:11,080 --> 00:10:13,880 Speaker 1: you know, really was able to grind out his yardage 208 00:10:13,920 --> 00:10:15,880 Speaker 1: in this football game today. I think he finished with 209 00:10:15,920 --> 00:10:19,240 Speaker 1: Wat seventy two yards rushing carries and a couple of 210 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,360 Speaker 1: big runs late where, you know, you moved the pile 211 00:10:21,440 --> 00:10:23,920 Speaker 1: and and and gave the giants an opportunity to get 212 00:10:23,960 --> 00:10:26,440 Speaker 1: to that victory formation and take a NA yeah, ten 213 00:10:26,520 --> 00:10:29,040 Speaker 1: yard run followed by an eight yard run on one 214 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:32,359 Speaker 1: of the giants final two drives. That was certainly significant. 215 00:10:32,360 --> 00:10:35,240 Speaker 1: and You bring up an exteresting point about Christian McCaffrey 216 00:10:35,559 --> 00:10:39,000 Speaker 1: very similar to Derrick Henry production wise. I know they're 217 00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:41,760 Speaker 1: very different backs, but if you recall, Derrick Henry last 218 00:10:41,800 --> 00:10:44,400 Speaker 1: week had the one eighteen yard run. Outside of that, 219 00:10:44,640 --> 00:10:46,960 Speaker 1: the giants defense did a good job at least doing 220 00:10:47,040 --> 00:10:50,520 Speaker 1: damage control, containing him, not allowing him to make that 221 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:53,400 Speaker 1: backbreaking run outside of the forty nine yard run. I 222 00:10:53,400 --> 00:10:56,600 Speaker 1: would argue McCaffrey maybe a little bit more productive Bob, 223 00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,959 Speaker 1: but he didn't have that backbreaking run outside of that forty, 224 00:11:00,160 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 1: you know, and they did get him to the ground 225 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:03,960 Speaker 1: and eventually hold them to a field goal in that situation, 226 00:11:04,000 --> 00:11:05,680 Speaker 1: as opposed to letting him rip it off and go 227 00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:08,680 Speaker 1: for a touchdown, and that's why it makes such a 228 00:11:08,720 --> 00:11:11,160 Speaker 1: big deal and a big difference. Is Wink Martindale was 229 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: emphasizing all throughout the course of this week. You gotta 230 00:11:14,080 --> 00:11:17,199 Speaker 1: get guys charging towards the ball carrier, Carl, and that's 231 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: what they were doing. Relentless behavior with respect to Christian McCaffrey. 232 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,240 Speaker 1: Hold that thought, car. Let's head back down to Johnsh 233 00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:27,280 Speaker 1: Melt Um. I thought they were prepared, had a good 234 00:11:27,280 --> 00:11:29,800 Speaker 1: week of practice and you know, these are the Games 235 00:11:29,800 --> 00:11:32,000 Speaker 1: in the national football league. There's certainly a lot of 236 00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:35,800 Speaker 1: things we need to do better, Um, but I'm happy 237 00:11:35,840 --> 00:11:39,520 Speaker 1: for the guys and Graham made all his kicks, you know, 238 00:11:39,600 --> 00:11:41,959 Speaker 1: some big kicks there at the end for us, and 239 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:44,600 Speaker 1: DJ led the team down to get some extra points there, 240 00:11:44,640 --> 00:11:47,080 Speaker 1: which was which was a huge difference. I thought of 241 00:11:47,080 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 1: defense played well. Um, started out fast. I wish we 242 00:11:51,000 --> 00:11:52,920 Speaker 1: could have got more points on the board early on 243 00:11:53,520 --> 00:11:57,839 Speaker 1: after those two turnovers, Um, but all in all, good 244 00:11:57,840 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: team win and get ready for next week. Obviously not 245 00:12:02,160 --> 00:12:04,679 Speaker 1: the prettiest but once again Daniel respond to the second 246 00:12:04,720 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 1: half and some big plays, especially some third down for was. 247 00:12:08,080 --> 00:12:11,320 Speaker 1: What did you see? From Um. I thought he played 248 00:12:11,320 --> 00:12:13,320 Speaker 1: a good game. I thought he made great decisions with 249 00:12:13,360 --> 00:12:15,120 Speaker 1: the football in his hands. He took care of it, 250 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:18,559 Speaker 1: he led the team down again Um to finish off 251 00:12:18,559 --> 00:12:21,280 Speaker 1: a drive to win the game. Uh. So that's two 252 00:12:21,320 --> 00:12:25,160 Speaker 1: good weeks, I'd say, for for Daniel made the right decision, 253 00:12:25,200 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: took care of the ball and there was pressure on him, 254 00:12:28,000 --> 00:12:29,440 Speaker 1: threw it away if you need to throw it away, 255 00:12:29,480 --> 00:12:32,280 Speaker 1: and then, you know, took off on that last naked 256 00:12:32,320 --> 00:12:34,560 Speaker 1: there to get the first down to uh. You know, 257 00:12:34,760 --> 00:12:36,080 Speaker 1: he could have done a lot of different things and 258 00:12:36,120 --> 00:12:38,160 Speaker 1: he made the right decision under pressure in a critical 259 00:12:38,200 --> 00:12:41,839 Speaker 1: situation and he's taken steps and I'm happy for him. 260 00:12:42,040 --> 00:12:43,720 Speaker 1: He put a lot of trust in him in that 261 00:12:44,080 --> 00:12:47,880 Speaker 1: situation to make the right decision. Why? Why did you 262 00:12:47,880 --> 00:12:50,640 Speaker 1: feel like that was the right play call? Well, I 263 00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:53,880 Speaker 1: just told Mike, Throughout the game, you know, it's calling 264 00:12:53,920 --> 00:12:56,840 Speaker 1: an NFL game, is it's an up and down things sometimes, 265 00:12:57,160 --> 00:12:59,600 Speaker 1: and I think the most important thing to do is 266 00:12:59,600 --> 00:13:02,520 Speaker 1: is stay true to yourself and have confidence in the players. 267 00:13:02,600 --> 00:13:06,040 Speaker 1: They feel that. So you know, we figured that was 268 00:13:06,280 --> 00:13:10,360 Speaker 1: not we figured we talked about it and Mike recommended 269 00:13:10,400 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 1: that play. Um. There was a naked play. So you 270 00:13:14,080 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: got a couple of different options and he made the 271 00:13:16,840 --> 00:13:19,760 Speaker 1: right one. Um. You know, if not, he would have 272 00:13:19,760 --> 00:13:21,839 Speaker 1: probably taken a sack. Just so we kept a clock 273 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 1: moving there. But I think it's important to show players 274 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 1: that you have faith in them. They worked their asses 275 00:13:28,559 --> 00:13:31,320 Speaker 1: off during the week, they've worked their asses off during camp. 276 00:13:31,920 --> 00:13:34,200 Speaker 1: They're the ones out there playing on Sunday and you 277 00:13:34,200 --> 00:13:36,280 Speaker 1: have to put it in their hands. I want to 278 00:13:36,320 --> 00:13:40,160 Speaker 1: count the most and that's what Kafka did with Daniel, 279 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:43,160 Speaker 1: and Daniel made the right decision. We ended up kneeling 280 00:13:43,200 --> 00:13:47,480 Speaker 1: on the ball. You got five yards, I guess, on 281 00:13:47,600 --> 00:13:50,200 Speaker 1: the third down play for the fifty six yard field goal. 282 00:13:51,360 --> 00:13:54,680 Speaker 1: How long were you gonna go with grant? It was 283 00:13:54,720 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 1: probably a little bit. It was a little bit past 284 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:00,760 Speaker 1: the line that we said going into the game, about 285 00:14:00,760 --> 00:14:04,319 Speaker 1: a yard and a half, and I just told tea 286 00:14:04,400 --> 00:14:06,160 Speaker 1: Mac I mean he was kicking it well. He kicked 287 00:14:06,200 --> 00:14:08,520 Speaker 1: the other one well. I looked at Graham and he said, 288 00:14:09,000 --> 00:14:10,920 Speaker 1: you know, and I have a look. He's done a 289 00:14:10,920 --> 00:14:13,040 Speaker 1: lot in practice. I know he's played a lot in 290 00:14:13,080 --> 00:14:18,160 Speaker 1: this league and again we'd like to be closer for him, 291 00:14:18,200 --> 00:14:21,320 Speaker 1: but that's his job as a kicker and as a 292 00:14:21,360 --> 00:14:24,640 Speaker 1: snapper and as a holder to execute those plays when 293 00:14:24,680 --> 00:14:25,960 Speaker 1: we need it the most. A lot of times it's 294 00:14:26,000 --> 00:14:28,520 Speaker 1: under pressure, and the three of those guys, along with 295 00:14:28,560 --> 00:14:31,480 Speaker 1: the Field Goal Protection Unit, did a good job. What 296 00:14:31,520 --> 00:14:34,560 Speaker 1: do you think of your defense on third downs in particular? 297 00:14:35,000 --> 00:14:37,440 Speaker 1: I thought the defense throughout the game played well. You know, 298 00:14:37,520 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: they again. We gave up that one big one that 299 00:14:39,480 --> 00:14:41,320 Speaker 1: scored it out there later, but they tightened back up 300 00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,480 Speaker 1: in the red zone and they attack a well, we 301 00:14:43,520 --> 00:14:46,320 Speaker 1: didn't get you know, I didn't get hit over over 302 00:14:46,400 --> 00:14:48,320 Speaker 1: the top of their head. I thought they did a 303 00:14:48,320 --> 00:14:51,680 Speaker 1: good job. They stuck together. Um. Again, it was a 304 00:14:51,720 --> 00:14:54,680 Speaker 1: good team win. These games are gonna be like this 305 00:14:55,520 --> 00:14:57,760 Speaker 1: most of the time in this league and you know, 306 00:14:57,800 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: I thought our guys showed grit, toughness, Um and heart. 307 00:15:02,200 --> 00:15:09,760 Speaker 1: What can you say about the job game? Yeah, I 308 00:15:09,800 --> 00:15:12,280 Speaker 1: think we have really good coaches, wink being one of them. Um, 309 00:15:12,320 --> 00:15:14,040 Speaker 1: I think Mike's doing a good job with his unit. 310 00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:15,640 Speaker 1: Te Mac all the rest of them. Have a lot 311 00:15:15,640 --> 00:15:18,000 Speaker 1: of confidence in wink. I think players have a lot 312 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:21,200 Speaker 1: of confidence. They're they're playing fast. Um, give a lot 313 00:15:21,280 --> 00:15:24,240 Speaker 1: of credit to to the coaches on the defensive side, 314 00:15:24,280 --> 00:15:26,840 Speaker 1: but to the players that are out there executing the signments. 315 00:15:26,840 --> 00:15:29,200 Speaker 1: And again, you know, wink's done this a long time 316 00:15:29,240 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 1: and don't you know, weeks not afraid of failure, Um, 317 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: and that's that's really what we want for the entire 318 00:15:34,480 --> 00:15:36,560 Speaker 1: organization is not to be afraid of failure, not to 319 00:15:36,600 --> 00:15:39,280 Speaker 1: be afraid of the consequence, for if you prepare the 320 00:15:39,360 --> 00:15:42,520 Speaker 1: right way, Um, you can live with the results. And 321 00:15:42,520 --> 00:15:44,640 Speaker 1: I'll say that over and over again. Uh and, there 322 00:15:44,680 --> 00:15:47,400 Speaker 1: might be games where asses get blown out, but I 323 00:15:47,440 --> 00:15:49,120 Speaker 1: know the guys prepared the right way. I know the 324 00:15:49,160 --> 00:15:52,240 Speaker 1: coach is preparing the right way. I have confidence in 325 00:15:52,320 --> 00:15:54,200 Speaker 1: the group that we have, that we work with. It's 326 00:15:54,240 --> 00:15:58,840 Speaker 1: never gonna be perfect, Um, but we have a bunch 327 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:03,040 Speaker 1: of tough guys. Are Tough minded guys. I'd say, Brian, 328 00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:06,480 Speaker 1: in your own words, talk about guys working the s off. 329 00:16:06,800 --> 00:16:11,800 Speaker 1: Talk a little bit about Uh Ocean. Yeah, I've said 330 00:16:11,840 --> 00:16:14,880 Speaker 1: this from again and again. I'm not I don't know 331 00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:17,440 Speaker 1: where he was last stretched. Nowhere is this year. His 332 00:16:17,560 --> 00:16:19,920 Speaker 1: mind's on right. He's been a big part of our 333 00:16:19,920 --> 00:16:23,040 Speaker 1: football team. He's got energy. I think he has talent. 334 00:16:23,080 --> 00:16:25,760 Speaker 1: I think winks getting talent out of him, Um, and 335 00:16:25,800 --> 00:16:29,280 Speaker 1: he's confident player. Certainly we got look, we got a long, 336 00:16:29,320 --> 00:16:30,960 Speaker 1: long way to go, as you saw out there, but 337 00:16:31,240 --> 00:16:33,640 Speaker 1: our guys fought, and not just x but all the 338 00:16:33,640 --> 00:16:39,800 Speaker 1: rest ox. Should I say ox xes x? Um. No, 339 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:42,640 Speaker 1: there's power in preparation, there's power and believing and there's, 340 00:16:42,640 --> 00:16:48,120 Speaker 1: I'd say, power and toughness. Um, asking for energy from 341 00:16:48,120 --> 00:16:51,840 Speaker 1: the crowd. What'd you think of the reaction in the stadium? 342 00:16:51,880 --> 00:16:55,080 Speaker 1: I thought the fans were great. Um, you know, just 343 00:16:55,160 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 1: driving over here from the facility and looking at all 344 00:16:58,320 --> 00:17:03,800 Speaker 1: the tailgates and all the beverages and all the games 345 00:17:03,840 --> 00:17:05,680 Speaker 1: they were playing, they were pretty rocked up. They have 346 00:17:05,760 --> 00:17:08,400 Speaker 1: their jerseys on, some old school ones, some new school ones, 347 00:17:08,440 --> 00:17:10,800 Speaker 1: and they were great on third down. You know, they 348 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,040 Speaker 1: know when to cheer and Um, you know, it's certainly 349 00:17:14,119 --> 00:17:17,600 Speaker 1: helpful to have have them out there and, uh you know, 350 00:17:17,640 --> 00:17:20,680 Speaker 1: we look forward to, uh you know, to next week. 351 00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:23,960 Speaker 1: We knew the story a lot of points and making 352 00:17:23,960 --> 00:17:25,639 Speaker 1: it time to take the place. How important is it 353 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,679 Speaker 1: for your team how to find a way to win 354 00:17:27,840 --> 00:17:30,639 Speaker 1: games like this as far as they development is concerned? Yeah, well, 355 00:17:30,680 --> 00:17:33,360 Speaker 1: I'd say whether you score a lot or not, it's 356 00:17:33,400 --> 00:17:35,840 Speaker 1: important to to figure out how to wait to win games. 357 00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:37,480 Speaker 1: You can win a game of right of ways, you 358 00:17:37,480 --> 00:17:42,200 Speaker 1: can also lose it. Um. Again, the object of the 359 00:17:42,240 --> 00:17:43,880 Speaker 1: game is to have one more point at the end 360 00:17:44,320 --> 00:17:47,440 Speaker 1: and to give yourself a chance in the fourth quarter. 361 00:17:47,560 --> 00:17:49,560 Speaker 1: Right now, where we're at, and we're a young team 362 00:17:49,560 --> 00:17:52,120 Speaker 1: that's still developing. Um, you know, we got a long 363 00:17:52,160 --> 00:17:54,919 Speaker 1: way to go, but I'd say that, you know, again, 364 00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:57,680 Speaker 1: we're we're shuffling guys in and out. We're trying to 365 00:17:57,400 --> 00:18:00,320 Speaker 1: find the best combinations. But you know, tell can care 366 00:18:00,320 --> 00:18:02,840 Speaker 1: of the ball and getting it goes a long way, 367 00:18:03,400 --> 00:18:06,600 Speaker 1: tackling well, Um, and then being able to figure out 368 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:09,080 Speaker 1: a way in the fourth quarter when it's close, to 369 00:18:09,119 --> 00:18:11,280 Speaker 1: grind out those yards that you need to put yourself 370 00:18:11,280 --> 00:18:13,840 Speaker 1: in a chance to win. And these are close games. 371 00:18:14,080 --> 00:18:18,960 Speaker 1: You know, I anticipate most of our games being close, um. 372 00:18:19,080 --> 00:18:20,960 Speaker 1: So there's a lot of work to do. We'll get 373 00:18:21,000 --> 00:18:23,120 Speaker 1: back to uh, we'll get back to work here tomorrow 374 00:18:23,160 --> 00:18:29,080 Speaker 1: and don't get at it again. You're still to coach 375 00:18:29,119 --> 00:18:32,439 Speaker 1: them here. Giants. For you, what area do you feel 376 00:18:32,480 --> 00:18:35,640 Speaker 1: like you're getting most comfortable in now to the two games, 377 00:18:35,640 --> 00:18:37,640 Speaker 1: two wins in your mountain. I don't think you ever 378 00:18:37,640 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: get I don't think you ever get comfortable, whether I 379 00:18:39,800 --> 00:18:42,640 Speaker 1: was an assistant or a coordinator. Uh, this game will 380 00:18:42,680 --> 00:18:45,840 Speaker 1: humble you really quick uh. It was one week you 381 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,320 Speaker 1: can be on top of the mountain and the next 382 00:18:47,560 --> 00:18:50,040 Speaker 1: you fall right off. And you know, what I just 383 00:18:50,240 --> 00:18:53,440 Speaker 1: stressed to the players and to the staff is let's 384 00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:54,919 Speaker 1: just take it one day at a time. Let's take 385 00:18:54,960 --> 00:18:57,119 Speaker 1: it for what it's worth. It's I told him in 386 00:18:57,119 --> 00:18:59,240 Speaker 1: the locker room. If we wouldn't have won this game, 387 00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: I can live with it because I know what we're 388 00:19:02,040 --> 00:19:04,960 Speaker 1: doing during the week is the right thing. Um, I 389 00:19:04,960 --> 00:19:08,040 Speaker 1: think there's a sound plan. I think the players are 390 00:19:08,040 --> 00:19:10,880 Speaker 1: spending extra time together, I think the coaches work extremely 391 00:19:10,880 --> 00:19:12,840 Speaker 1: hard of putting plans together. I think we go out 392 00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:15,800 Speaker 1: there and practice. You know the right way. Uh, not 393 00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 1: always perfect, but you know the steps that you need 394 00:19:18,840 --> 00:19:22,640 Speaker 1: to take in order to build a consistent program Um. 395 00:19:22,680 --> 00:19:25,240 Speaker 1: You know it takes time, but you know those guys. 396 00:19:25,600 --> 00:19:29,040 Speaker 1: They're they're gritty bunch Um and you know they've been 397 00:19:29,080 --> 00:19:32,119 Speaker 1: that way since camp when we've put them through. You 398 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:34,280 Speaker 1: know a variety of things. I mean there's days where 399 00:19:34,280 --> 00:19:36,879 Speaker 1: I I know it would be tough on the defense 400 00:19:36,920 --> 00:19:39,040 Speaker 1: and just make it really short yards. There's other days 401 00:19:39,080 --> 00:19:41,080 Speaker 1: tough on the offense. You know, messed with the kicking 402 00:19:41,119 --> 00:19:43,000 Speaker 1: game a little bit. I think that's just part of it. 403 00:19:43,720 --> 00:19:48,240 Speaker 1: Having a mental resiliency, competitive stamina to uh, to go 404 00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,119 Speaker 1: out there and play the next play regardless of how 405 00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:51,840 Speaker 1: the situation is going, which I know is tough for 406 00:19:51,840 --> 00:19:55,040 Speaker 1: a lot of people to Um to do, but our 407 00:19:55,080 --> 00:19:57,240 Speaker 1: guys are finding a way just to fight through play 408 00:19:57,240 --> 00:20:03,040 Speaker 1: by play. No, no, we'll get more tomorrow, coach. And coach, 409 00:20:03,119 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: after in the first two more, two, more in the 410 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:12,199 Speaker 1: first quarter, first quart after your second field goal. It 411 00:20:12,240 --> 00:20:15,439 Speaker 1: looked like that third down play the offense wasn't in 412 00:20:15,480 --> 00:20:18,480 Speaker 1: the right position, clock was going down and then you 413 00:20:18,480 --> 00:20:20,879 Speaker 1: pull you seem like you pull the offense to the 414 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: side on there and the official came over and talked 415 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:26,520 Speaker 1: to you. So with you. That's what I was just saying. Look, 416 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:29,399 Speaker 1: we gotta we gotta get in the huddle, we gotta 417 00:20:29,440 --> 00:20:31,880 Speaker 1: hear the play call and we gotta line up properly, 418 00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:35,760 Speaker 1: and that has nothing to do with defense. It has 419 00:20:35,800 --> 00:20:38,679 Speaker 1: to do with getting in the huddle here, in the 420 00:20:38,720 --> 00:20:42,000 Speaker 1: call and get lined up properly. Just to give yourself 421 00:20:42,040 --> 00:20:44,600 Speaker 1: a fighting chance. It's the start of a play. Uh, 422 00:20:44,640 --> 00:20:46,879 Speaker 1: and I thought that you know, we're little we're a 423 00:20:46,920 --> 00:20:49,560 Speaker 1: little slow out of the Huddle, Um. So I just 424 00:20:49,640 --> 00:20:53,720 Speaker 1: let those guys know that today, especially on the opening 425 00:20:53,760 --> 00:20:57,320 Speaker 1: kick goal, the almost had to bubble more coveries and no, 426 00:20:57,440 --> 00:20:59,440 Speaker 1: I thought I think we're I think we're making progress 427 00:20:59,440 --> 00:21:02,320 Speaker 1: from that area. Um, still a ways to go, but 428 00:21:02,520 --> 00:21:04,560 Speaker 1: made some made some big plays. Also gave up a 429 00:21:04,560 --> 00:21:07,560 Speaker 1: long return, but you know, our specialists made all their kicks. 430 00:21:07,880 --> 00:21:09,879 Speaker 1: We're making progress. I think team Max doing a good 431 00:21:09,920 --> 00:21:11,840 Speaker 1: job with those guys. And again we're shuffling guys in 432 00:21:11,880 --> 00:21:14,639 Speaker 1: and out. So really every area of our team is 433 00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:24,280 Speaker 1: work in progress right now. We we I was gonna 434 00:21:24,320 --> 00:21:28,720 Speaker 1: come back a lot more today. Right then we look 435 00:21:28,720 --> 00:21:31,919 Speaker 1: at Kenny on the other side. It's a continual competition 436 00:21:31,920 --> 00:21:35,000 Speaker 1: at receiver. I'll say that. I've said it since when. 437 00:21:35,680 --> 00:21:37,840 Speaker 1: I'm not being a jerk, I've said it since the 438 00:21:37,880 --> 00:21:40,800 Speaker 1: middle of camp. Right. It hasn't changed. It's gonna be 439 00:21:40,800 --> 00:21:46,040 Speaker 1: a continual competition. Um, can Darius had opportunities today and 440 00:21:46,080 --> 00:21:47,760 Speaker 1: you know, we'll see what it is next week. Maybe 441 00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:51,120 Speaker 1: it's Slaton, maybe it's more kg. Um. You know. Well, 442 00:21:51,160 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: we'll see where we go with that, but I think 443 00:21:52,800 --> 00:21:55,959 Speaker 1: we're just gonna that position. We're gonna just keep on 444 00:21:56,080 --> 00:21:58,760 Speaker 1: rolling guys and, Um, play the guys that week we 445 00:21:58,800 --> 00:22:00,439 Speaker 1: think would give us the best chance and the other 446 00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:03,760 Speaker 1: guy's gotta be ready to go as backups. Great, like 447 00:22:03,800 --> 00:22:05,720 Speaker 1: a pro. Yeah, I mean I told him during a 448 00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:09,679 Speaker 1: week Um, that we're gonna go with sals.

No, 451 00:22:13,760 --> 00:22:15,760 Speaker 1: because you see what we did from one week to 452 00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:19,240 Speaker 1: the next. I think we're just evaluating, UM, all those 453 00:22:19,280 --> 00:22:23,080 Speaker 1: guys on a game by game basis. I think they 454 00:22:23,280 --> 00:22:25,040 Speaker 1: you know, it takes a lot of mental toughness too. 455 00:22:25,560 --> 00:22:27,080 Speaker 1: You know that's not an easy thing to hear and 456 00:22:27,119 --> 00:22:30,760 Speaker 1: I appreciate you know, them being pros.

And it was Julian love the 503 00:25:02,720 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 1: leading tackler with eight. He also had his first career 504 00:25:05,640 --> 00:25:07,680 Speaker 1: full sack. He only had a half a sack leading 505 00:25:07,680 --> 00:25:09,119 Speaker 1: into this game and it was a heck of a 506 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:11,760 Speaker 1: time to come through with the sack on the Panther's 507 00:25:11,840 --> 00:25:15,040 Speaker 1: final possession. Two tackles for loss, a quarterback hit as well, 508 00:25:15,080 --> 00:25:18,159 Speaker 1: and Dane belt in in his giant's debut, finishing second 509 00:25:18,160 --> 00:25:21,680 Speaker 1: on the team with five tackles. Baker Mayfield Fourteen of 510 00:25:21,720 --> 00:25:24,119 Speaker 1: twenty nine for a hundred forty five yards. Had A 511 00:25:24,200 --> 00:25:26,120 Speaker 1: touchdown past the D J Moore, who led the way 512 00:25:26,119 --> 00:25:28,560 Speaker 1: with three catches for forty three yards. They ran twenty 513 00:25:28,560 --> 00:25:31,560 Speaker 1: three times as a team for a hundred forty six yards. 514 00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:35,400 Speaker 1: Panthers finishing with three sacks, two thanks to Brian Burns. 515 00:25:35,560 --> 00:25:40,080 Speaker 1: Their pro bowl defensive end. Matt ionitis had the other Carl. 516 00:25:40,160 --> 00:25:44,040 Speaker 1: We heard Brian Dable talk about playing time with respect 517 00:25:44,040 --> 00:25:46,119 Speaker 1: to snap count. There was a big topic of conversation 518 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:48,280 Speaker 1: last week and there is. Tony didn't play a lot 519 00:25:48,280 --> 00:25:49,880 Speaker 1: of snaps, but I would argue he made the most 520 00:25:49,920 --> 00:25:52,080 Speaker 1: of his limited opportunities. We didn't see a lot of 521 00:25:52,160 --> 00:25:56,040 Speaker 1: Kenny Golladay and one of the things both wink Martindale 522 00:25:56,080 --> 00:25:59,640 Speaker 1: and Brian dable focused on this offseason into training camp 523 00:25:59,760 --> 00:26:02,639 Speaker 1: was it's going to fluctuate whether it be offensive or 524 00:26:02,680 --> 00:26:06,040 Speaker 1: defensive personnel based on the opponent. And you could argue 525 00:26:06,040 --> 00:26:07,880 Speaker 1: they've been men of their words based on the first 526 00:26:07,920 --> 00:26:10,960 Speaker 1: two games thus far. Yeah, and you know, the one 527 00:26:11,080 --> 00:26:19,200 Speaker 1: constant that we see is their communication skill, in their consistency, 528 00:26:20,240 --> 00:26:22,879 Speaker 1: and we also know that if anyone steps up and 529 00:26:22,920 --> 00:26:26,720 Speaker 1: says hey, I'm ready to be that that number one guy, 530 00:26:27,240 --> 00:26:30,600 Speaker 1: that he'll play that guy every week until then he 531 00:26:30,840 --> 00:26:34,639 Speaker 1: this is incentive for those guys to really step up 532 00:26:34,920 --> 00:26:38,440 Speaker 1: right in the opportunity. Sterling Shepherdess, you know, he's a 533 00:26:38,560 --> 00:26:40,920 Speaker 1: he's a season that he's seeing a lot of time 534 00:26:40,960 --> 00:26:46,480 Speaker 1: because they trust him right. Um. But the other thing 535 00:26:46,520 --> 00:26:50,280 Speaker 1: that you know, that was really interesting, that that really 536 00:26:50,840 --> 00:26:54,760 Speaker 1: caught my attention when coach Dabel said it's a trust thing. 537 00:26:55,359 --> 00:27:00,480 Speaker 1: Our players trust and they feel it when we show 538 00:27:00,560 --> 00:27:03,680 Speaker 1: trust in them, you know, and that was when when 539 00:27:03,680 --> 00:27:06,360 Speaker 1: he was talking about the naked boot, he's like, Hey, 540 00:27:06,600 --> 00:27:09,440 Speaker 1: call it because they feel when they when they feel 541 00:27:09,480 --> 00:27:12,439 Speaker 1: that we trust them, it goes a long way, and 542 00:27:12,480 --> 00:27:16,240 Speaker 1: that's Daniel Jones uh in his decision making at the end. 543 00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:18,439 Speaker 1: But you know, trust is of two way street with 544 00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:24,080 Speaker 1: these guys and again they've articulated that overtly to all 545 00:27:24,119 --> 00:27:27,960 Speaker 1: of us in the press and I'm sure within their 546 00:27:28,160 --> 00:27:32,280 Speaker 1: um their own private spaces with their players. It's a 547 00:27:32,320 --> 00:27:35,800 Speaker 1: big point of emphasis, right, like he talked about his 548 00:27:35,920 --> 00:27:39,040 Speaker 1: team being mentally tough. Right, I don't think he's preaching 549 00:27:39,080 --> 00:27:41,040 Speaker 1: that as much as he is. Hey, let's believe in 550 00:27:41,080 --> 00:27:43,879 Speaker 1: each other, let's play for each other, let's play and 551 00:27:44,240 --> 00:27:46,399 Speaker 1: you know it's gonna be some tough games, gonna be 552 00:27:46,440 --> 00:27:49,800 Speaker 1: some close games. Let's play for each other. And it 553 00:27:49,920 --> 00:27:53,480 Speaker 1: showed right. Um, the team didn't quit. They never they 554 00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,160 Speaker 1: never lost focus, which was a beautiful thing to see. 555 00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:01,240 Speaker 1: Like they gave up the one big run on but again, 556 00:28:01,880 --> 00:28:04,960 Speaker 1: you know, it looks a lot if you're just a spectator. 557 00:28:05,920 --> 00:28:08,879 Speaker 1: You're like shee's they're gonna you know, you can't give 558 00:28:08,960 --> 00:28:13,760 Speaker 1: up this whole hold right, they never did. And then 559 00:28:13,800 --> 00:28:17,080 Speaker 1: you look at the third down numbers. They were key, 560 00:28:17,440 --> 00:28:20,200 Speaker 1: crucial where they needed to be. They give up one 561 00:28:20,280 --> 00:28:24,000 Speaker 1: big run, then they stabilized in the red area, never 562 00:28:24,040 --> 00:28:26,920 Speaker 1: gave up a big play over the top. Baker Mayfield 563 00:28:26,920 --> 00:28:29,520 Speaker 1: could never connect down the field, which he's not a 564 00:28:29,560 --> 00:28:33,240 Speaker 1: good downfield passer. Um from the pocketing you can see 565 00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:36,720 Speaker 1: there are several instances where he just were overthrown or 566 00:28:36,760 --> 00:28:40,720 Speaker 1: underthrowing guys. Speaking of that, Bob, Carolina two of twelve 567 00:28:40,880 --> 00:28:43,280 Speaker 1: on third down and you look through the third down numbers, 568 00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:45,760 Speaker 1: it was split. But it wasn't as if they were 569 00:28:45,800 --> 00:28:48,760 Speaker 1: facing third and fifteens and third and twenties the whole game. 570 00:28:48,880 --> 00:28:51,280 Speaker 1: They had a number of manageable downs. They had third 571 00:28:51,280 --> 00:28:53,920 Speaker 1: and four's, third and one, third and threes as they 572 00:28:53,960 --> 00:28:57,160 Speaker 1: look at my log here. So they had some favorable opportunities. 573 00:28:57,240 --> 00:28:59,360 Speaker 1: Yet the giants defense was able to do enough to 574 00:28:59,360 --> 00:29:02,160 Speaker 1: make some stops. Well, Carolina was over for one on 575 00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:05,200 Speaker 1: third and ones. They were two for four between two 576 00:29:05,280 --> 00:29:08,240 Speaker 1: and four yards. They were over two and five to 577 00:29:08,360 --> 00:29:11,640 Speaker 1: eight and they were over for five and nine plus. So, wink, 578 00:29:12,160 --> 00:29:14,880 Speaker 1: you know, of the twelve, uh five of them were 579 00:29:15,000 --> 00:29:17,600 Speaker 1: nine or more yards. Wink did a good job of 580 00:29:17,680 --> 00:29:21,360 Speaker 1: dialing up pressure. Guys played a good Simon. Football teams 581 00:29:21,360 --> 00:29:24,200 Speaker 1: are over for three this year. Tennessee, especially with Derrick 582 00:29:24,280 --> 00:29:27,520 Speaker 1: Henry and the panthers with Christian McCaffrey, teams are over 583 00:29:27,560 --> 00:29:30,160 Speaker 1: for three against the giants on third and one, you know. 584 00:29:30,240 --> 00:29:34,320 Speaker 1: And and when your offense isn't that good, uh, if 585 00:29:34,320 --> 00:29:36,360 Speaker 1: you're at least getting off the field, you're giving them 586 00:29:36,400 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: more swings at the plate, you know, and that's look 587 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,600 Speaker 1: at the time of possession in today's game. It was 588 00:29:41,840 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 1: grossly in the giants favor. I think it was almost 589 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:49,400 Speaker 1: a ten minute differential. We're close to it, Um you know, 590 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:51,239 Speaker 1: those are the kind of things that the giants are 591 00:29:51,240 --> 00:29:55,480 Speaker 1: gonna have to, Um, you know, continue to be successful 592 00:29:55,520 --> 00:29:57,600 Speaker 1: with and, you know, I think the week by week 593 00:29:57,680 --> 00:29:59,920 Speaker 1: plan of trying to figure out what's the best game 594 00:30:00,160 --> 00:30:02,880 Speaker 1: plan to win this week. It's gonna be something that 595 00:30:02,880 --> 00:30:04,920 Speaker 1: they're gonna have to do. It's not like Carl's eighty 596 00:30:05,000 --> 00:30:09,560 Speaker 1: six giants or the ninety giants, where, you know, you 597 00:30:09,680 --> 00:30:11,760 Speaker 1: Kinda went out there and you played the way you 598 00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:13,640 Speaker 1: played and it was incoming upon the other team to 599 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:16,360 Speaker 1: stop the great defense and the giants great run game 600 00:30:16,400 --> 00:30:19,080 Speaker 1: and Sims and all that other stuff. Now it's like 601 00:30:19,120 --> 00:30:21,440 Speaker 1: we gotta figure out ways what gives us the best 602 00:30:21,520 --> 00:30:24,240 Speaker 1: route to victory this week and then we gotta go execute. Yeah, 603 00:30:24,280 --> 00:30:26,040 Speaker 1: and then before we go to break Lance, the one 604 00:30:26,080 --> 00:30:27,680 Speaker 1: thing you know, bob and I talked to a lot 605 00:30:27,720 --> 00:30:30,200 Speaker 1: of fans and we do these chalk talks and the 606 00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,240 Speaker 1: number one thing we say to them say manage expectations. 607 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:37,160 Speaker 1: Right the talent isn't where it needs to be, but 608 00:30:37,200 --> 00:30:39,480 Speaker 1: they're gonna they're gonna win some and there's some of 609 00:30:39,480 --> 00:30:42,880 Speaker 1: them are gonna be ugly, but just manage expectations until 610 00:30:42,920 --> 00:30:46,280 Speaker 1: you can get the talent base where they needed and 611 00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:49,840 Speaker 1: it's not there right now. They're rebuilding but in that 612 00:30:49,920 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 1: process still finding ways in different styles to win games 613 00:30:54,400 --> 00:30:56,880 Speaker 1: and to your point, you don't gain any advantage with 614 00:30:57,000 --> 00:30:59,360 Speaker 1: style points in the standings. A win is a win, 615 00:30:59,400 --> 00:31:01,960 Speaker 1: whether it's a Lee, whether it comes down to the wire, 616 00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:04,960 Speaker 1: whether it's in lopsided fashion. It's not like college football 617 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:07,880 Speaker 1: where they take it the consideration the caliber of the opposition. 618 00:31:07,920 --> 00:31:09,800 Speaker 1: We will step beside when we come back when he 619 00:31:09,840 --> 00:31:12,480 Speaker 1: gets some player reactual here from Daniel Jones. Get his 620 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:14,920 Speaker 1: take on that final play which helps seal did the 621 00:31:14,920 --> 00:31:17,600 Speaker 1: eleven yard run as the giants beat the panthers.

It was the 667 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:07,080 Speaker 1: patriot seventeen, steelers fourteen. It's both of those teams. Now 668 00:34:07,200 --> 00:34:10,120 Speaker 1: go to one and one. The Jacksonville Jaguar is getting 669 00:34:10,120 --> 00:34:14,040 Speaker 1: their first victory this season, rolling over the colts twenty 670 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:18,040 Speaker 1: four to nothing, and the Miami Dolphins stunned the Ravens 671 00:34:18,120 --> 00:34:21,600 Speaker 1: forty to the thirty eight. Baltimore jumping out very early 672 00:34:21,719 --> 00:34:25,319 Speaker 1: in this game thanks to Lamar Jackson's three touchdowns, and 673 00:34:25,400 --> 00:34:29,160 Speaker 1: it was to a tongue of Iloa, finishing with four 674 00:34:29,239 --> 00:34:33,800 Speaker 1: hundred sixty nine passing yards and six touchdowns, a fantasy feast. 675 00:34:34,200 --> 00:34:36,880 Speaker 1: Speaking of feasting, tyree Hill was the recipient of a 676 00:34:36,880 --> 00:34:40,239 Speaker 1: lot of that. Eleven receptions, a hundred ninety yards and 677 00:34:40,760 --> 00:34:44,400 Speaker 1: two touchdowns. As that was the NFL and action, it 678 00:34:44,440 --> 00:34:47,040 Speaker 1: was brought to you by bigelot. Grab a Mug and 679 00:34:47,160 --> 00:34:53,080 Speaker 1: t proudly. And it looks like Trey Lance got knocked 680 00:34:53,080 --> 00:34:56,920 Speaker 1: out of the game, carded off. Trey Lance was carded off. 681 00:34:57,000 --> 00:35:00,440 Speaker 1: So Garoppolos and I think he's four for four. I 682 00:35:00,440 --> 00:35:02,399 Speaker 1: think he's four for four for like a hundred yards 683 00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:05,640 Speaker 1: right now, the discount qb. So apparently there's value in 684 00:35:05,719 --> 00:35:09,160 Speaker 1: keeping an Federan quarterback on the depth. What's gonna Happen? Yeah, 685 00:35:09,160 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 1: a quarterback that had you within a quarter of going 686 00:35:11,680 --> 00:35:14,879 Speaker 1: to the Super Bowl last year or and and had 687 00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:17,480 Speaker 1: you within a half of winning winning the Super Bowl 688 00:35:17,520 --> 00:35:20,360 Speaker 1: short a couple of years ago. Yeahs of a backup 689 00:35:20,400 --> 00:35:24,480 Speaker 1: to heppen. So Trey Lance right now banged up and 690 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:27,000 Speaker 1: that means Jimmy Garoppolo back in. And it is now 691 00:35:27,040 --> 00:35:30,640 Speaker 1: thirteen nothing in favor of the San Francisco Forty niners 692 00:35:30,760 --> 00:35:33,920 Speaker 1: over the Seattle seahawks. As the NFC west race will 693 00:35:33,960 --> 00:35:36,160 Speaker 1: certainly be interesting this year with the changing of the 694 00:35:36,200 --> 00:35:39,480 Speaker 1: guard under center, specifically in South Seattle, with Russell Wilson 695 00:35:39,560 --> 00:35:43,000 Speaker 1: heading to the Denver Broncos. We are breaking down the 696 00:35:43,040 --> 00:35:46,480 Speaker 1: giants victory over the Carolina Panthers, nineteen to sixteen. We 697 00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:48,759 Speaker 1: spoke about Daniel Jones earlier the fact that he had 698 00:35:48,760 --> 00:35:51,640 Speaker 1: the big eleven yard run to ice the game away. 699 00:35:52,160 --> 00:35:55,200 Speaker 1: And that brings us to the player press conferences, brought 700 00:35:55,200 --> 00:35:57,320 Speaker 1: to you by Metlife, the official insurance company of the 701 00:35:57,320 --> 00:36:00,320 Speaker 1: New York giants. Let's listen to Daniel Jones. Were electing 702 00:36:00,360 --> 00:36:03,000 Speaker 1: on his performance, as well as the teams win. Now 703 00:36:03,040 --> 00:36:05,920 Speaker 1: we John by giants quarterback Daniel Jones. Daniel, take us 704 00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:08,400 Speaker 1: through that last play. You're a little naked booth there. 705 00:36:08,400 --> 00:36:09,919 Speaker 1: You at say Kwan out in the flat. You decided 706 00:36:09,960 --> 00:36:12,800 Speaker 1: to run it. What you say? Uh, yeah, situation where 707 00:36:12,960 --> 00:36:15,040 Speaker 1: you don't want to throw in any completion. I want 708 00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:17,080 Speaker 1: to make sure we stay in bounds there and uh 709 00:36:17,080 --> 00:36:20,080 Speaker 1: the match. Kwan. So uh saw land to run. Try 710 00:36:20,080 --> 00:36:22,040 Speaker 1: to get up field and get down protect the ball. 711 00:36:22,680 --> 00:36:25,440 Speaker 1: How much is that a secondary, a third option on 712 00:36:25,480 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: that play? I saw you looking when you rolled right. 713 00:36:27,320 --> 00:36:29,480 Speaker 1: You're looking back left as as is one of your 714 00:36:29,480 --> 00:36:31,520 Speaker 1: first reads. So is that something you always have back 715 00:36:31,520 --> 00:36:33,480 Speaker 1: in mind and those situations when you can talking to 716 00:36:33,560 --> 00:36:35,759 Speaker 1: run it? Yeah, I think anytime you get outside of 717 00:36:35,760 --> 00:36:38,480 Speaker 1: the pocket there's chances to do that and that's kind 718 00:36:38,480 --> 00:36:41,440 Speaker 1: of the the idea of the call is to Um 719 00:36:41,520 --> 00:36:43,080 Speaker 1: you know, give you the option to run it or 720 00:36:43,200 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 1: or find someone open, but make sure we complete the 721 00:36:46,080 --> 00:36:49,160 Speaker 1: past to keep the clock going and and uh, you know, 722 00:36:49,160 --> 00:36:51,120 Speaker 1: move the ball forward, opportunity to convert the third down. 723 00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:53,200 Speaker 1: It's kind of one of those grindado out games. Offensive Right, 724 00:36:53,239 --> 00:36:54,879 Speaker 1: it seemed like you didn't really get a clicking until 725 00:36:54,920 --> 00:36:56,880 Speaker 1: that drive in the second half when you started going on. 726 00:36:56,960 --> 00:36:58,000 Speaker 1: Is this the deal? We just have to kind of 727 00:36:58,000 --> 00:36:59,520 Speaker 1: stick with it, or if you keep doing what you're 728 00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:01,040 Speaker 1: supposed to do, it's find it a clicking and you're 729 00:37:01,040 --> 00:37:04,320 Speaker 1: gonna get some points. Uh, yeah, I think uh certainly 730 00:37:04,440 --> 00:37:06,840 Speaker 1: wasn't perfect, especially in the first half. You know, we 731 00:37:06,920 --> 00:37:11,080 Speaker 1: gotta execute better in certain situations. Um, you know, and 732 00:37:11,080 --> 00:37:13,399 Speaker 1: and uh, and move the ball better, convert more third down. 733 00:37:13,480 --> 00:37:16,600 Speaker 1: So a lot to clean up. Defense played great all day. 734 00:37:17,000 --> 00:37:18,719 Speaker 1: gave us a chance there at the end, but we 735 00:37:19,040 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: made enough players to win the game and Um, you know, 736 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: we'll we'll uh celebrate tonight, but look at the things 737 00:37:24,040 --> 00:37:26,120 Speaker 1: we got to clean up going for final questions. Look 738 00:37:26,120 --> 00:37:27,879 Speaker 1: like in the second half the offense really got kicking 739 00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:29,560 Speaker 1: there a little bit, especially in the run game. After 740 00:37:29,560 --> 00:37:31,479 Speaker 1: you guys really struggled to run in the first half. 741 00:37:31,719 --> 00:37:33,759 Speaker 1: Maybe one of the reasons you couldn't score touchdowns off 742 00:37:33,800 --> 00:37:36,239 Speaker 1: those two early turnovers. Right. Is there some you guys 743 00:37:36,239 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: that difference schematically? Did you start blocking it up better? 744 00:37:38,719 --> 00:37:40,279 Speaker 1: What was it about getting that running game going in 745 00:37:40,320 --> 00:37:42,440 Speaker 1: the second half? Yeah, I think, you know, you just 746 00:37:42,520 --> 00:37:45,480 Speaker 1: keep keep, keep leaning on them, keep keep giving them 747 00:37:45,560 --> 00:37:48,120 Speaker 1: chances and, Um, you know, we found a few creases 748 00:37:48,120 --> 00:37:49,879 Speaker 1: there and they kind of build on each other. Once 749 00:37:49,920 --> 00:37:51,680 Speaker 1: you hit one, uh, the next one is a little 750 00:37:51,680 --> 00:37:53,640 Speaker 1: bit easier. So I thought the guys up front played 751 00:37:53,680 --> 00:37:56,359 Speaker 1: great all day and Um, you know, we were able 752 00:37:56,440 --> 00:37:58,520 Speaker 1: to to uh, you know, get loose on a couple 753 00:37:58,560 --> 00:38:00,399 Speaker 1: there in the second half. They wanted a great job 754 00:38:01,400 --> 00:38:05,600 Speaker 1: on those. Congratual one. Thank you. Thank you. Alright. So 755 00:38:05,640 --> 00:38:08,800 Speaker 1: that was Daniel Jones with our very own John Schmell, 756 00:38:08,960 --> 00:38:12,279 Speaker 1: talking about his individual performance and the team being able 757 00:38:12,280 --> 00:38:15,080 Speaker 1: to grind out the three point victory over the panthers. 758 00:38:15,280 --> 00:38:18,040 Speaker 1: Red Zone efficiency, or what I like to call the 759 00:38:18,120 --> 00:38:21,279 Speaker 1: lack thereof, coming up in that conversation. The giants were 760 00:38:21,320 --> 00:38:24,160 Speaker 1: one for three in the red zone. Missed opportunities in 761 00:38:24,239 --> 00:38:28,120 Speaker 1: the first half, but the defense really came through to 762 00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:30,640 Speaker 1: stop the bleeding and call now we've seen two games 763 00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:33,360 Speaker 1: from an offensive red zone perspective. Last week they were 764 00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,560 Speaker 1: two for three, and I was right. Quite a turnaround 765 00:38:35,560 --> 00:38:37,640 Speaker 1: based on what we saw over the last few seasons. Today, 766 00:38:38,000 --> 00:38:40,600 Speaker 1: not nearly as efficient. then. You could argue that comes 767 00:38:40,640 --> 00:38:42,879 Speaker 1: back to it took a little while for the run 768 00:38:42,920 --> 00:38:46,000 Speaker 1: game to get back on track. Yes, but here's the thing. 769 00:38:47,560 --> 00:38:51,840 Speaker 1: When you talk about the red zone efficiency in a 770 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:57,240 Speaker 1: game like this, threes count right. So they didn't cortway blank. Now, 771 00:38:57,320 --> 00:39:00,239 Speaker 1: later on in the year we'd start to have the 772 00:39:00,239 --> 00:39:06,719 Speaker 1: conversations of touchdowns versus field goals. Right now, again, you're 773 00:39:06,760 --> 00:39:10,120 Speaker 1: down there, you're getting points, you're not squandering it right. 774 00:39:10,960 --> 00:39:13,200 Speaker 1: Give me two more weeks and we'll start talking about well, 775 00:39:13,239 --> 00:39:16,279 Speaker 1: this is their twentieth time in the Red Zone and 776 00:39:16,360 --> 00:39:19,520 Speaker 1: they've only settled for three. I think they're finding out 777 00:39:19,600 --> 00:39:22,279 Speaker 1: what they are and how they can do that. At 778 00:39:22,280 --> 00:39:25,800 Speaker 1: this point I think it's too early to Um to 779 00:39:25,920 --> 00:39:29,400 Speaker 1: kind of discount, especially if they're winning games on field goals, 780 00:39:29,760 --> 00:39:33,080 Speaker 1: and they were again. They were playing a proper kind 781 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:36,240 Speaker 1: of team that you can get away with with threes 782 00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:38,359 Speaker 1: you're good. Like you know the last couple of years 783 00:39:38,400 --> 00:39:40,680 Speaker 1: when they've played the bucks and you know they had 784 00:39:40,760 --> 00:39:44,440 Speaker 1: brady and he's you know, Gronk was playing, and Amens 785 00:39:44,520 --> 00:39:47,080 Speaker 1: and Godwin and all the other stuff, like threes ain't 786 00:39:47,120 --> 00:39:49,399 Speaker 1: doing you any good. Like you gotta get sevens. You're 787 00:39:49,400 --> 00:39:53,279 Speaker 1: not winning a field goal game. In this case it 788 00:39:53,320 --> 00:39:56,960 Speaker 1: was okay, you know, last week. You know this week 789 00:39:57,000 --> 00:39:59,399 Speaker 1: they scored in the red zone. Okay, they didn't. They 790 00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:01,640 Speaker 1: only got the one touchdown in the three trips, but 791 00:40:01,680 --> 00:40:03,799 Speaker 1: they got six other points. Last week they got two 792 00:40:03,800 --> 00:40:07,680 Speaker 1: touchdowns and Jones made a terrible decision. It'll be interesting 793 00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:11,600 Speaker 1: to see to Um Carl when they do the film breakdown, 794 00:40:11,640 --> 00:40:14,719 Speaker 1: because there were times during the game where it looked 795 00:40:14,760 --> 00:40:17,759 Speaker 1: like Jones had some opportunities to throw the ball and 796 00:40:17,800 --> 00:40:21,600 Speaker 1: he was. And I think that guard, the guard, now 797 00:40:21,640 --> 00:40:25,960 Speaker 1: Glue Glewinsky, played pretty good last week. The left guard 798 00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:28,840 Speaker 1: was the problem. Today. Both guards were the problem, along 799 00:40:28,840 --> 00:40:32,719 Speaker 1: with the center, and I think that's causing Jones to 800 00:40:32,840 --> 00:40:35,359 Speaker 1: pause for a second and not let it rip, which 801 00:40:35,400 --> 00:40:37,560 Speaker 1: is something that they're gonna have to figure out. Well, yeah, 802 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:41,040 Speaker 1: when you look at a quarterback's line of sight, Bob, 803 00:40:41,120 --> 00:40:44,160 Speaker 1: if you're right directly in it, which means that inside 804 00:40:44,200 --> 00:40:47,440 Speaker 1: rusher's he he's seeing them before he sees down field or, 805 00:40:47,480 --> 00:40:53,560 Speaker 1: in addition, just seeing downfield. So they gotta get that 806 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,160 Speaker 1: Short up so that he can now at least survey 807 00:40:57,239 --> 00:41:00,160 Speaker 1: the field without a guy directly coming at me. And 808 00:41:00,239 --> 00:41:02,840 Speaker 1: I think Um, and I think Howard said, he's his 809 00:41:02,960 --> 00:41:06,320 Speaker 1: heads on a swivel early because of the leak. It's 810 00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:11,799 Speaker 1: Um from the guard center position, or both sides of 811 00:41:11,840 --> 00:41:17,919 Speaker 1: the center position, Joshua Zoodo, Ben Bretticon, both alternating, which 812 00:41:17,960 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 1: is what the two of you are referring to. I wonder, Carl, 813 00:41:21,320 --> 00:41:24,960 Speaker 1: to piggyback off of your point, especially since the Zoodo, remember, 814 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:27,120 Speaker 1: this is his rookie year and granted he did move 815 00:41:27,160 --> 00:41:30,000 Speaker 1: around in North Carolina. He was extremely versatile and he 816 00:41:30,080 --> 00:41:32,640 Speaker 1: did change positions even on a drive. So I'm not 817 00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: saying that this is uncharted territory, but how much do 818 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:37,640 Speaker 1: you think, considering now he's still getting used to the 819 00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,239 Speaker 1: speed of the game on the NFL level, that then 820 00:41:40,320 --> 00:41:43,719 Speaker 1: maybe impacting his level of consistency over the first two games? Well, 821 00:41:43,719 --> 00:41:48,799 Speaker 1: I mean he's a rookie, so it's there's a lot 822 00:41:48,880 --> 00:41:51,359 Speaker 1: impacting him right now. The speed of the game, the 823 00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:53,480 Speaker 1: timing of the game, the timing of the plays to 824 00:41:53,600 --> 00:41:56,960 Speaker 1: change up of what he sees from a defender. So 825 00:41:57,040 --> 00:42:02,480 Speaker 1: this is all uh new. When the Interior lineman again, 826 00:42:02,520 --> 00:42:05,160 Speaker 1: they see it both ways. They see it left, right 827 00:42:05,280 --> 00:42:09,200 Speaker 1: and center.

For us, we've got to do a better 899 00:45:36,080 --> 00:45:38,960 Speaker 1: job of capitalizing. But, as I said, I've been on 900 00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:40,319 Speaker 1: the other end of this. We've been on other end 901 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:42,279 Speaker 1: this a lot of times before the pass and you know, 902 00:45:42,680 --> 00:45:45,000 Speaker 1: you gotta be thankful because anytime you can win in 903 00:45:45,040 --> 00:45:46,560 Speaker 1: this league, it's hard to win this league, but you 904 00:45:46,600 --> 00:45:48,239 Speaker 1: got one from the states and continue to get better. 905 00:45:48,360 --> 00:45:50,360 Speaker 1: Can you peel back the curtain and say how this 906 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,680 Speaker 1: locker room feels being a tune o compared to your 907 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:56,320 Speaker 1: past years?

You just gotta continue 916 00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:16,840 Speaker 1: to get the mindset within his locker room, continue to 917 00:46:16,840 --> 00:46:20,080 Speaker 1: trusted guys and then a woman in in our facility and, Um, 918 00:46:20,160 --> 00:46:22,680 Speaker 1: just keep being better.

The dancing 920 00:46:25,400 --> 00:46:27,160 Speaker 1: get a little bit better, but when you know all 921 00:46:27,200 --> 00:46:28,879 Speaker 1: the lyrics, you know you kind of could just laid 922 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,279 Speaker 1: back and do you. I think I heard every coach 923 00:46:31,320 --> 00:46:34,040 Speaker 1: hacker saying that, like the contract doesn't matter, drafting, teaching 924 00:46:34,120 --> 00:46:37,040 Speaker 1: doesn't matter. You can't play based on the practice. Is 925 00:46:37,120 --> 00:46:39,600 Speaker 1: Dave's needed a little bit more than everybody's else? It 926 00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:42,480 Speaker 1: seems like. It seems like he plays the guys who 927 00:46:42,560 --> 00:46:46,000 Speaker 1: he feels anty. Um. Yeah, I mean at the end 928 00:46:46,000 --> 00:46:48,640 Speaker 1: of the day, you know, I can't really get too 929 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,640 Speaker 1: focused on that. For me personally, I gotta come into 930 00:46:50,640 --> 00:46:51,920 Speaker 1: work everything to day and try to do what I 931 00:46:51,920 --> 00:46:54,320 Speaker 1: can do to get better how the team win. Um, 932 00:46:54,480 --> 00:46:56,840 Speaker 1: that's something I got to do. That's focus on was 933 00:46:56,880 --> 00:46:59,360 Speaker 1: within myself and how to lead and, you know, obviously 934 00:46:59,360 --> 00:47:01,880 Speaker 1: focused on my ups and myself up the team. U. 935 00:47:03,360 --> 00:47:09,520 Speaker 1: A couple more guys. Let's Barkley lentz. All right, thank 936 00:47:09,520 --> 00:47:12,760 Speaker 1: you so much. John S Kwon Barkley talking about how 937 00:47:13,280 --> 00:47:17,040 Speaker 1: it wasn't necessarily as easy to get some success on 938 00:47:17,040 --> 00:47:19,560 Speaker 1: the ground today as it was in the second half 939 00:47:19,600 --> 00:47:23,000 Speaker 1: against Tennessee, twenty one carries seventy two yards. As long 940 00:47:23,040 --> 00:47:25,440 Speaker 1: as run was sixteen, and in the first half they 941 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:28,320 Speaker 1: ran the ball eight times for no yardage. Three of 942 00:47:28,360 --> 00:47:31,440 Speaker 1: their eight runs were for negative yards, negative one, negative six, 943 00:47:31,680 --> 00:47:34,319 Speaker 1: negative five. They only had two negative runs in the 944 00:47:34,360 --> 00:47:37,440 Speaker 1: second half. That was obviously a huge difference make. So 945 00:47:37,480 --> 00:47:42,120 Speaker 1: in addition to set Kwon Barkley, Richie James was noticeable 946 00:47:42,280 --> 00:47:44,839 Speaker 1: as a wide receiver and that meant that everybody else 947 00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:46,840 Speaker 1: in the receiver corps was looking up at him. But 948 00:47:47,160 --> 00:47:50,840 Speaker 1: sterling shepherd six catches for thirty four yards, his longest 949 00:47:50,840 --> 00:47:54,000 Speaker 1: reception for twelve. He had ten targets. He led the 950 00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:56,480 Speaker 1: way and Sterling Shepherd also caught up with the media 951 00:47:56,520 --> 00:47:58,640 Speaker 1: after the game. Let's take a list it into what 952 00:47:58,719 --> 00:48:01,439 Speaker 1: he had to say. We're gonna jump in and join 953 00:48:01,520 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 1: the locker room. stolling shepherd to see addressed in the 954 00:48:03,480 --> 00:48:07,160 Speaker 1: Midi he's starting. Gotta work from two and Oh than yeah, 955 00:48:07,239 --> 00:48:09,560 Speaker 1: you're right. I mean anytime you can win in this 956 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:12,520 Speaker 1: league it's a blessing. Uh this it's a hard league 957 00:48:12,560 --> 00:48:15,840 Speaker 1: to winning. So on the right side of what do 958 00:48:15,880 --> 00:48:17,839 Speaker 1: you think of Daniel Scramble in there at the end 959 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:22,320 Speaker 1: to get that halfway there? Yeah, duel, tell you he's 960 00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:24,719 Speaker 1: he's a duel. People will sleep on him whenever they 961 00:48:24,800 --> 00:48:29,759 Speaker 1: talk about running, but he got the wheels too, I 962 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:31,920 Speaker 1: can I mentioned it's a struggle offensively. Why do you think? 963 00:48:31,960 --> 00:48:35,440 Speaker 1: What's the struggle offensively? We just gotta do better on 964 00:48:35,520 --> 00:48:37,520 Speaker 1: pre snap. I mean guys gotta know where to go. 965 00:48:38,200 --> 00:48:41,720 Speaker 1: It was too many times that, you know, myself included, 966 00:48:41,760 --> 00:48:43,359 Speaker 1: I was going the wrong way and then you look 967 00:48:43,400 --> 00:48:45,520 Speaker 1: at the clock and we gotta hurry up, so that 968 00:48:45,560 --> 00:48:47,719 Speaker 1: throws off a little bit of the time. And then execution, 969 00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:50,400 Speaker 1: I mean we gotta we gotta do a better job executing, 970 00:48:50,840 --> 00:48:53,040 Speaker 1: especially when we get those balls down in the red zone. 971 00:48:53,080 --> 00:48:55,200 Speaker 1: I mean those two turnovers at the beginning, we're huge 972 00:48:55,200 --> 00:48:58,160 Speaker 1: for us and we gotta capitalize on that. So Um, 973 00:48:58,280 --> 00:49:00,200 Speaker 1: and we gotta get back in the film room and 974 00:49:00,200 --> 00:49:02,520 Speaker 1: and get this thing figured out, because if you don't 975 00:49:02,520 --> 00:49:04,839 Speaker 1: in this league it will kill you. So what, uh 976 00:49:05,800 --> 00:49:07,719 Speaker 1: were about the way we made such a big deal 977 00:49:07,719 --> 00:49:10,879 Speaker 1: about Cadarius only seven snaps last week. Comes back, he's 978 00:49:11,239 --> 00:49:14,360 Speaker 1: very involved today. What does that say about him? Uh Yeah, 979 00:49:14,400 --> 00:49:16,840 Speaker 1: I mean that man is very talented. You know what 980 00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:18,400 Speaker 1: I mean. You get the balls in ball in his 981 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,759 Speaker 1: hands and uh, he can make something happen in the 982 00:49:20,760 --> 00:49:23,440 Speaker 1: blink of an eye. So Um, you know he's excited 983 00:49:23,480 --> 00:49:25,600 Speaker 1: to be out there. But, like I said, we all 984 00:49:25,640 --> 00:49:28,880 Speaker 1: have especially in our room, and Um, it starts with me, 985 00:49:29,360 --> 00:49:30,759 Speaker 1: and we got a lot of lots to work on. 986 00:49:31,280 --> 00:49:32,920 Speaker 1: When you win these close games, how much is it 987 00:49:33,000 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 1: you guys not making the bad place to beat yourselves 988 00:49:35,880 --> 00:49:37,440 Speaker 1: and giving you an opportunity to win the game the 989 00:49:37,440 --> 00:49:39,600 Speaker 1: way you did yeah, I mean that was huge. Um. 990 00:49:39,760 --> 00:49:42,160 Speaker 1: You know, we didn't turn the ball over. Uh, so 991 00:49:42,200 --> 00:49:45,359 Speaker 1: that that was huge for us and that's, honestly, most 992 00:49:45,400 --> 00:49:47,799 Speaker 1: of the time, difference in the game. Um, when you're 993 00:49:47,800 --> 00:49:50,200 Speaker 1: on the plus side of the turnover battle, you really 994 00:49:50,200 --> 00:49:52,839 Speaker 1: give yourself a good chance. I know last week kind 995 00:49:52,840 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: of skewed that they were. They were up on that, 996 00:49:56,040 --> 00:50:00,239 Speaker 1: but Um, most of the time that's the case. Asked 997 00:50:00,320 --> 00:50:02,440 Speaker 1: right before the decisive field goal by and over from 998 00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:05,359 Speaker 1: fifty six. Did you have any idea exactly how much 999 00:50:05,400 --> 00:50:07,120 Speaker 1: yard you needed on that to give m a chance? 1000 00:50:07,960 --> 00:50:10,880 Speaker 1: Uh No, it didn't. Um, I just know he got 1001 00:50:10,920 --> 00:50:13,680 Speaker 1: a big leg. So, you know, I told him I 1002 00:50:13,719 --> 00:50:17,120 Speaker 1: was like, man, I appreciate you right there. Right, he's 1003 00:50:17,120 --> 00:50:18,839 Speaker 1: got a big leg. You know, he got the job 1004 00:50:18,840 --> 00:50:22,319 Speaker 1: done for us, so hats off too. That's giants wide 1005 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:26,920 Speaker 1: receiver starling Shepherd Rance, and shepherd did haul in that 1006 00:50:27,000 --> 00:50:29,759 Speaker 1: big catch to set up Graham Gano to finish off 1007 00:50:29,760 --> 00:50:32,319 Speaker 1: a very impressive day. Four or four in terms of 1008 00:50:32,440 --> 00:50:34,920 Speaker 1: his field goals, as the giants top the Panthers Nineteen 1009 00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:38,439 Speaker 1: Sixteen here at metlife stadium. They improved to two and Oh, 1010 00:50:38,440 --> 00:50:40,839 Speaker 1: we still will have more player reaction, including hearing from 1011 00:50:40,840 --> 00:50:44,000 Speaker 1: Graham Gano, who was our player of the game, and also, 1012 00:50:44,200 --> 00:50:47,040 Speaker 1: piggybacking off the point that sterling shepherd brought up, then, 1013 00:50:47,040 --> 00:50:49,080 Speaker 1: in the past it would have been very hard for 1014 00:50:49,080 --> 00:50:52,640 Speaker 1: them to overcome mistakes late in Games and actually find 1015 00:50:52,640 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 1: a way to close it out. How they were able 1016 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,360 Speaker 1: to do that today and what stood out. We'll tackle 1017 00:50:57,400 --> 00:50:59,440 Speaker 1: that and more, as well as catch up with everything 1018 00:50:59,440 --> 00:51:02,239 Speaker 1: that's happening in NFL week two. We'll be back right 1019 00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:05,880 Speaker 1: after this. You're listening took Pepsi giants extra point on 1020 00:51:06,000 --> 00:51:09,080 Speaker 1: the W F A N giants Radio Network, broke to 1021 00:51:09,160 --> 00:51:12,160 Speaker 1: you by P S E and g. This is Dame 1022 00:51:12,200 --> 00:51:14,800 Speaker 1: Belton and you're listening to the radio home of big blue, 1023 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:17,440 Speaker 1: the fan, W F A N and W F A 1024 00:51:17,560 --> 00:51:21,040 Speaker 1: N F M New York and Lance better with you here. 1025 00:51:21,200 --> 00:51:24,920 Speaker 1: Let's take it through the NFL week to scoreboard. Several 1026 00:51:24,960 --> 00:51:28,239 Speaker 1: games currently in progress, all in the second quarter. The 1027 00:51:28,360 --> 00:51:31,320 Speaker 1: Rams in front of the Falcons, fourteen to three. Matthew 1028 00:51:31,360 --> 00:51:33,759 Speaker 1: Stafford a hundred twenty yards in a touchdown pass. At 1029 00:51:33,800 --> 00:51:37,840 Speaker 1: that one the niners leave the seahawks thirteen nothing. Jimmy 1030 00:51:37,880 --> 00:51:41,560 Speaker 1: Garoppolo is now back under center for San Francisco. Tray 1031 00:51:41,680 --> 00:51:44,719 Speaker 1: Lance did not get benched. Unfortunately, he was carved off 1032 00:51:44,719 --> 00:51:48,320 Speaker 1: the field with a legged jury. So Jimmy Garoppolo proving 1033 00:51:48,560 --> 00:51:52,840 Speaker 1: his value, staying with the niners, reconstructing his contract and 1034 00:51:53,000 --> 00:51:55,279 Speaker 1: right now, at least, to the short term future, it 1035 00:51:55,320 --> 00:51:57,839 Speaker 1: will be the Jimmyjo g show once again. Five of seven, 1036 00:51:57,920 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 1: eight yards and a touchdown pass. Bengals trailing to cowboys 1037 00:52:01,880 --> 00:52:04,759 Speaker 1: fourteen to three. In the second Tony Pollard with a 1038 00:52:04,840 --> 00:52:07,839 Speaker 1: rushing touchdown, cooper rush connecting with Noah Brown. Remember Cooper 1039 00:52:07,920 --> 00:52:10,560 Speaker 1: rush filled in for Dak Prescott last season and helped 1040 00:52:10,560 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 1: the cowboys beat the Minnesota Vikings. The giants will welcome 1041 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:16,760 Speaker 1: the cowboys here in metlife stadium on Monday night football. 1042 00:52:16,800 --> 00:52:20,319 Speaker 1: Next week. Texans and Broncos are tied at three. It's 1043 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:23,440 Speaker 1: the raiders shutting out the cardinals. Tend nothing. Derek Carr 1044 00:52:23,520 --> 00:52:26,120 Speaker 1: hundred nineteenth passing yards and a touchdown in that one. 1045 00:52:26,200 --> 00:52:30,320 Speaker 1: Everything else went final and we had several interested comebacks, 1046 00:52:30,320 --> 00:52:34,160 Speaker 1: including the jets, who topped the Browns thirty one to thirty, 1047 00:52:34,320 --> 00:52:38,799 Speaker 1: thanks to Joe FLACCO. Three hundred seven yards through the air, 1048 00:52:39,000 --> 00:52:41,799 Speaker 1: four touchdowns, two of which went to rookie white out 1049 00:52:42,080 --> 00:52:45,400 Speaker 1: Garrett Wilson, who had over a hundred yards. Will stay 1050 00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: in the A F C East because the dolphins did 1051 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:50,799 Speaker 1: the same thing to the Baltimore Ravens. They were down 1052 00:52:50,880 --> 00:52:54,200 Speaker 1: big Miami, only then to have to a tongue of 1053 00:52:54,239 --> 00:52:57,879 Speaker 1: Voloa put on an offensive clinic. Four hundred sixty nine 1054 00:52:57,920 --> 00:53:01,600 Speaker 1: passing yards, six touchdowns, two to tyree hill, who had 1055 00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,960 Speaker 1: eleven catches for a hundred ninety yards, as the dolphins 1056 00:53:05,000 --> 00:53:08,520 Speaker 1: stunned the ravens forty two to thirty eight.

Tom Brady and the bucks 1061 00:53:22,480 --> 00:53:24,840 Speaker 1: finally got the better of the saints in the regular season. 1062 00:53:24,880 --> 00:53:28,120 Speaker 1: They doubled up New Orleans to ten. On the road 1063 00:53:28,360 --> 00:53:32,080 Speaker 1: it was the patriots, seventeen steelers, four team the Colt 1064 00:53:32,239 --> 00:53:36,000 Speaker 1: shut out by the Jaguars twenty four to nothing. Trevor 1065 00:53:36,080 --> 00:53:38,839 Speaker 1: Lawrence with a pair of touchdown passes in that one. 1066 00:53:39,280 --> 00:53:40,759 Speaker 1: That was the NFL in action.

A three point victory, four big blue 1070 00:53:50,760 --> 00:53:54,040 Speaker 1: over the panthers, Nineteen Sixteen here in East Rutherford, New Jersey. 1071 00:53:54,040 --> 00:53:56,440 Speaker 1: So the giants off to a strong start. Two and 1072 00:53:56,480 --> 00:53:59,560 Speaker 1: Oh for the first time since two thousand sixteen. And 1073 00:54:00,040 --> 00:54:03,080 Speaker 1: they owe credit to Graham Good Oh. He showcased his 1074 00:54:03,200 --> 00:54:06,080 Speaker 1: leg and then some. I'm including a go ahead, which 1075 00:54:06,120 --> 00:54:08,200 Speaker 1: turned out to be a game winning fifty six yard 1076 00:54:08,239 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 1: field goal. Good. No, spoke with the media. Let's listen 1077 00:54:11,080 --> 00:54:13,360 Speaker 1: in support the locker up of giants. Kick a Graham 1078 00:54:13,400 --> 00:54:15,320 Speaker 1: Gano and we're gonna listen to this Paul that you know, 1079 00:54:15,400 --> 00:54:18,080 Speaker 1: interviews him after the game. Let's listen to me. Three 1080 00:54:18,120 --> 00:54:20,239 Speaker 1: and a half to go. I thought the key was 1081 00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:22,640 Speaker 1: Shephard kitching had five yard passed to set you up 1082 00:54:22,680 --> 00:54:25,319 Speaker 1: so you could attempt one less than sixty. How did 1083 00:54:25,320 --> 00:54:27,560 Speaker 1: you see it? Um, I actually don't see what's going 1084 00:54:27,600 --> 00:54:29,520 Speaker 1: on before the play. I just watched the downs and stuff, 1085 00:54:29,520 --> 00:54:31,840 Speaker 1: but I was thankful for that opportunity. Uh, you know, 1086 00:54:31,880 --> 00:54:33,800 Speaker 1: it takes them moving the ball to give me a position. 1087 00:54:33,880 --> 00:54:36,840 Speaker 1: So it's a full team effort and uh, you know, 1088 00:54:36,880 --> 00:54:38,719 Speaker 1: I'm just thankful to be here with the giants. How 1089 00:54:38,760 --> 00:54:40,759 Speaker 1: close did you think you had to come on that 1090 00:54:40,840 --> 00:54:44,120 Speaker 1: last um? I told coach the yard line was the 1091 00:54:44,440 --> 00:54:46,640 Speaker 1: thirty eight and I think that was about a fifty 1092 00:54:46,640 --> 00:54:48,880 Speaker 1: five yard field goal. I'm ask not great though, but 1093 00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:51,560 Speaker 1: uh yeah, he he looked at me and set me 1094 00:54:51,600 --> 00:54:53,000 Speaker 1: out and he goes, can he make it? I said Yeah, 1095 00:54:53,000 --> 00:54:54,720 Speaker 1: I can make it. So we went out and Jamie 1096 00:54:55,080 --> 00:54:57,360 Speaker 1: and all those guys did a great job and uh, 1097 00:54:57,520 --> 00:54:59,839 Speaker 1: there's a lot more to it than kicking it so well. 1098 00:55:00,040 --> 00:55:02,160 Speaker 1: What is the mental approach in the situation like that, 1099 00:55:02,200 --> 00:55:04,200 Speaker 1: because it looks like this game could go down to 1100 00:55:04,239 --> 00:55:06,480 Speaker 1: the wire. I was hoping it would. Um, I think 1101 00:55:06,480 --> 00:55:07,920 Speaker 1: it was the end of the third quarter. I looked 1102 00:55:07,960 --> 00:55:09,520 Speaker 1: at you guys. That said, I hope we get a chance. 1103 00:55:09,560 --> 00:55:13,560 Speaker 1: So Um, the small old team. So it definitely feels 1104 00:55:13,560 --> 00:55:16,080 Speaker 1: good getting those opportunities. But, you know, also I'm thankful 1105 00:55:16,120 --> 00:55:18,759 Speaker 1: for the time I had there, but having a good 1106 00:55:18,800 --> 00:55:20,680 Speaker 1: time here at the giants. Yeah, we remember that one 1107 00:55:20,719 --> 00:55:23,680 Speaker 1: from Carolina. When you take the giants in a similar situation. 1108 00:55:23,880 --> 00:55:26,520 Speaker 1: I don't remember that. You know, I'm trying to forget that. 1109 00:55:26,680 --> 00:55:29,040 Speaker 1: Uh Yeah, I'm happy to be here. What about the 1110 00:55:29,080 --> 00:55:32,640 Speaker 1: fifty two yarder earlier in the quarter when Jones had 1111 00:55:32,680 --> 00:55:36,040 Speaker 1: a five yards scramble, also to put you in better position? Keep, 1112 00:55:36,080 --> 00:55:38,319 Speaker 1: played by Daniels. Yeah, huge, played by them. I mean, 1113 00:55:38,360 --> 00:55:39,840 Speaker 1: like I was saying, it takes these guys moving the 1114 00:55:39,840 --> 00:55:42,040 Speaker 1: ball that you didn't get me a position. So thankful 1115 00:55:42,080 --> 00:55:44,120 Speaker 1: for that. Um, you know, it's a team effort and 1116 00:55:44,239 --> 00:55:48,080 Speaker 1: uh yeah, just just blessed be here. Graham God O, congratulations. Thanks, thanks, 1117 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,040 Speaker 1: appreciate Graham. Was this one of those games where you 1118 00:55:50,080 --> 00:55:51,640 Speaker 1: felt good in warm up, so you thought if you 1119 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:54,280 Speaker 1: had the opportunity, you were gonna have a good day? Um, yeah, 1120 00:55:54,360 --> 00:55:57,200 Speaker 1: it was a it was a very windy warm up. So, Um, 1121 00:55:57,239 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 1: you know, it took some adjusting throughout the game to, 1122 00:56:00,040 --> 00:56:01,880 Speaker 1: you know, give us to the wind Um. But I 1123 00:56:01,920 --> 00:56:05,760 Speaker 1: mean that's playing here and in metlife. So, um, Jamie 1124 00:56:05,760 --> 00:56:08,000 Speaker 1: did a fantastic job holding for me. You know, Casey did, 1125 00:56:08,080 --> 00:56:11,120 Speaker 1: always does a great job snapping the ball. So, uh, 1126 00:56:11,360 --> 00:56:13,240 Speaker 1: I was telling them it takes a full team effort 1127 00:56:13,239 --> 00:56:14,919 Speaker 1: to do it and and you know, I'm just I'm 1128 00:56:14,960 --> 00:56:17,480 Speaker 1: just part of it. So I'm excited to have those chances. 1129 00:56:17,520 --> 00:56:19,200 Speaker 1: You tell about how you're not watching, how you're not 1130 00:56:19,239 --> 00:56:21,239 Speaker 1: watching the plays. Right, you just focus on what you're doing. 1131 00:56:21,239 --> 00:56:23,359 Speaker 1: How was your two warm up periods like before those 1132 00:56:23,400 --> 00:56:25,640 Speaker 1: two fifty yarders? Um, it's all the same. You know, 1133 00:56:25,680 --> 00:56:27,800 Speaker 1: I can uh, I can't really see the ball traveling 1134 00:56:27,800 --> 00:56:30,800 Speaker 1: in the net. Um, but I just try to prepare 1135 00:56:30,880 --> 00:56:33,719 Speaker 1: mentally as as if every situation, every third down, is 1136 00:56:33,719 --> 00:56:37,040 Speaker 1: about to become a field goal opportunity. So, Um, you know, 1137 00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,359 Speaker 1: we had a lot of third down conversions there on 1138 00:56:39,360 --> 00:56:41,800 Speaker 1: some of those drives. So it's kind of just reset 1139 00:56:41,840 --> 00:56:44,000 Speaker 1: my mind and and go back to square one with 1140 00:56:44,040 --> 00:56:46,560 Speaker 1: the warm up and try to keep everything consistent. Than 1141 00:56:47,920 --> 00:56:51,400 Speaker 1: grab good, reflecting on his very strong performance to the 1142 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:55,279 Speaker 1: giants nine victory over the Carolina Panthers. The fifty six 1143 00:56:55,320 --> 00:56:58,239 Speaker 1: yarder gave the giants the lead late and then the 1144 00:56:58,280 --> 00:57:00,719 Speaker 1: panthers got the ball back with three thirty four to 1145 00:57:00,840 --> 00:57:04,319 Speaker 1: go in the fourth and here's an example of what 1146 00:57:05,120 --> 00:57:08,080 Speaker 1: sterling shepherd was reflecting on earlier the program when we 1147 00:57:08,120 --> 00:57:10,520 Speaker 1: heard from him in the locker room. The fact that 1148 00:57:10,600 --> 00:57:13,520 Speaker 1: in the past they were in these close situations and 1149 00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:16,800 Speaker 1: they just couldn't find a way or they were plagued 1150 00:57:16,880 --> 00:57:20,640 Speaker 1: by mental lapses and issues. And you have a penalty 1151 00:57:20,680 --> 00:57:24,520 Speaker 1: on Darnay Holmes defensive pass interference or seven yards. It 1152 00:57:24,560 --> 00:57:29,520 Speaker 1: puts the panthers at the Carolina Forty Two decent field position. 1153 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:32,560 Speaker 1: Then you have an incomplete pass by Baker, a short 1154 00:57:32,560 --> 00:57:34,919 Speaker 1: pass to Christian McCaffrey for Ford sets up a huge 1155 00:57:34,960 --> 00:57:37,920 Speaker 1: third and six and Julian love gets it, opening up 1156 00:57:37,960 --> 00:57:41,080 Speaker 1: the gut sacks Mayfield closes the door in nine yard 1157 00:57:41,160 --> 00:57:44,080 Speaker 1: loss and the giants are able to run out the clock. 1158 00:57:44,360 --> 00:57:47,400 Speaker 1: And I bring in John Schwelkier, who joins me. That 1159 00:57:47,480 --> 00:57:50,960 Speaker 1: wasn't question. The shepherd right, a fantastic question and that 1160 00:57:51,120 --> 00:57:53,520 Speaker 1: was the situation in the game. That came to mind 1161 00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:56,960 Speaker 1: when sterling was talking about what he's been front and 1162 00:57:57,000 --> 00:57:59,880 Speaker 1: center to, considering he's the longest vested veteran on this 1163 00:58:00,040 --> 00:58:02,120 Speaker 1: and going back to team, which was the last time 1164 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,920 Speaker 1: they were two in up crucial mistakes, some critical spots. 1165 00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:08,400 Speaker 1: For example, not to pour salt in the wounds of fans, 1166 00:58:08,440 --> 00:58:11,560 Speaker 1: but last season The Washington game, off sides on the 1167 00:58:11,560 --> 00:58:14,040 Speaker 1: field goal gets a Redo. All of a sudden they 1168 00:58:14,040 --> 00:58:16,880 Speaker 1: win the game. Things like that. And that to me 1169 00:58:16,960 --> 00:58:19,000 Speaker 1: comes to mind because once again we're dealing with the penalty. 1170 00:58:19,200 --> 00:58:21,320 Speaker 1: Now it fair, it is. John Darn a Holmes picked 1171 00:58:21,360 --> 00:58:23,840 Speaker 1: up a penalty on the final drive against Tennessee last 1172 00:58:23,840 --> 00:58:27,000 Speaker 1: week and I believe to know were there two defensive holdings? Well, 1173 00:58:27,000 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 1: there were two over the course of homes in the game, 1174 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:31,520 Speaker 1: but it was just one, I believe, on that final 1175 00:58:32,600 --> 00:58:36,880 Speaker 1: second one holds and Randy Bullock did get in field 1176 00:58:36,880 --> 00:58:40,560 Speaker 1: goal range and the kicker went wide left. So sometimes 1177 00:58:40,560 --> 00:58:43,160 Speaker 1: other forces will bounce your way and you'll win, but 1178 00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:46,000 Speaker 1: there was an example again where you had what could 1179 00:58:46,000 --> 00:58:48,480 Speaker 1: have turned out to be in extremely costly penalty. It 1180 00:58:48,520 --> 00:58:51,320 Speaker 1: was funny. I was talking to art stableton from the 1181 00:58:51,440 --> 00:58:53,440 Speaker 1: USA Today coming up the stairs and I said to him, 1182 00:58:53,440 --> 00:58:55,680 Speaker 1: you know, it's funny. You know the team is a 1183 00:58:55,760 --> 00:58:59,120 Speaker 1: forty seven yard missed field goal and a fifty six. 1184 00:58:59,200 --> 00:59:01,640 Speaker 1: Was that the final number? Fifties six yard made field 1185 00:59:01,640 --> 00:59:03,680 Speaker 1: goal from you know, who knows what the record is. 1186 00:59:03,720 --> 00:59:06,240 Speaker 1: And I go back to Um something Joe Judge said 1187 00:59:06,320 --> 00:59:08,200 Speaker 1: last year and it was kind of the people joked 1188 00:59:08,200 --> 00:59:10,560 Speaker 1: about it, but and I thought about it a lot 1189 00:59:10,600 --> 00:59:12,560 Speaker 1: since and I'm like, you know, it's kind of oppression 1190 00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:14,800 Speaker 1: in a lot of ways where, you know, people talk 1191 00:59:14,880 --> 00:59:17,120 Speaker 1: about you know so obsessed with the record, but the 1192 00:59:17,160 --> 00:59:21,640 Speaker 1: records sometimes can you know, aren't necessarily indicative of how 1193 00:59:21,680 --> 00:59:24,800 Speaker 1: you're playing. Right, you know, the team has averaged under 1194 00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:27,360 Speaker 1: twenty points a game now, or exactly twenty points per game, right, 1195 00:59:27,360 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 1: twenty one and nineteen points the first two weeks. So 1196 00:59:29,080 --> 00:59:31,160 Speaker 1: they've averaged twenty points a game in the first two weeks. 1197 00:59:31,480 --> 00:59:34,200 Speaker 1: If they're owing two, people are killing the cofeds right, 1198 00:59:34,200 --> 00:59:37,480 Speaker 1: because the only averaging twenty points per game. But that's 1199 00:59:37,520 --> 00:59:41,040 Speaker 1: what complimentary football is, that's what sound football is. Now 1200 00:59:41,040 --> 00:59:43,320 Speaker 1: they did lose the turnover battle in week one. They 1201 00:59:43,360 --> 00:59:49,320 Speaker 1: wanted today to exactly. So That's how you win these 1202 00:59:49,360 --> 00:59:52,480 Speaker 1: football games that are close, that are tight, against teams 1203 00:59:52,480 --> 00:59:54,680 Speaker 1: that are probably similar to you in terms of talent level. 1204 00:59:55,000 --> 00:59:58,400 Speaker 1: You make fewer mistakes than they do. You make plays 1205 00:59:58,440 --> 01:00:00,800 Speaker 1: when you need them, you don't make critical mistakes when 1206 01:00:00,800 --> 01:00:03,400 Speaker 1: you can afford them, and that's how you win football games. 1207 01:00:03,280 --> 01:00:04,640 Speaker 1: And this shows in the point I'm trying to make. 1208 01:00:04,720 --> 01:00:08,040 Speaker 1: Lands it's such a fine line in this league between 1209 01:00:08,040 --> 01:00:12,320 Speaker 1: winning and losing, especially these close games, that look when 1210 01:00:12,360 --> 01:00:15,200 Speaker 1: wins come enjoy them. When losses come, you know you 1211 01:00:15,240 --> 01:00:17,560 Speaker 1: hate them, and winning close games in this league is 1212 01:00:17,600 --> 01:00:20,120 Speaker 1: often what separates teams from being over five hundred from 1213 01:00:20,160 --> 01:00:22,440 Speaker 1: under five hundred and so forth. The giants have played 1214 01:00:22,440 --> 01:00:25,640 Speaker 1: two very close games, back and forth, grinded out type 1215 01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:27,920 Speaker 1: of affairs that you know aren't gonna go to Canton. 1216 01:00:27,960 --> 01:00:29,920 Speaker 1: They're not gonna be, you know, putting the hall of 1217 01:00:29,960 --> 01:00:32,040 Speaker 1: fame the video of these games, but that's fine and 1218 01:00:32,080 --> 01:00:33,840 Speaker 1: that's how this team is gonna have to win games 1219 01:00:33,840 --> 01:00:36,600 Speaker 1: this year and the first two weeks they've shown with 1220 01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:39,440 Speaker 1: this coaching staff and this group of players, they know 1221 01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:41,439 Speaker 1: how to win close games, which is really good to say. 1222 01:00:41,560 --> 01:00:46,680 Speaker 1: And it's gonna come and up two point conversion late, 1223 01:00:46,880 --> 01:00:49,240 Speaker 1: or it may come under the circumstances where you have 1224 01:00:49,320 --> 01:00:52,480 Speaker 1: to get a conversion to run out the clock. Right 1225 01:00:52,520 --> 01:00:54,840 Speaker 1: and to your point, Lands, I thought last week they 1226 01:00:54,880 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 1: won the game largely because I thought se Kwon Barkley 1227 01:00:57,520 --> 01:01:01,080 Speaker 1: made some unbelievable individual plays Bove the x and yes, 1228 01:01:01,120 --> 01:01:03,080 Speaker 1: and I think he really put the team on us 1229 01:01:03,080 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 1: back in a lot of ways in that game. That 1230 01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:09,480 Speaker 1: wasn't the case today. You didn't see unbelievable individual efforts 1231 01:01:09,520 --> 01:01:11,920 Speaker 1: I thought this game was largely one because the coaching 1232 01:01:11,960 --> 01:01:15,080 Speaker 1: stap wing Martindale schemes up the Julian love sack right. 1233 01:01:15,360 --> 01:01:17,640 Speaker 1: You scheme a play action, guys wide open in the 1234 01:01:17,680 --> 01:01:21,120 Speaker 1: secondary because of schemes. So this is our coaching. Compliments players. 1235 01:01:21,120 --> 01:01:23,360 Speaker 1: And that's how you went. proball games, giants football, brought 1236 01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:25,480 Speaker 1: to you by your local forward stores.

Is the giants are 1244 01:01:45,280 --> 01:01:48,120 Speaker 1: two and Oh for the first time since two thousand sixteen, 1245 01:01:48,400 --> 01:01:51,280 Speaker 1: another season in which they walk that very fine line 1246 01:01:51,560 --> 01:01:56,000 Speaker 1: of winning and losing football games. Coincidental, perhaps? Height State 1247 01:01:56,040 --> 01:01:59,880 Speaker 1: two defensive, low scoring games very similar the way that you, 1248 01:02:00,000 --> 01:02:02,920 Speaker 1: as have started.
