1 00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:06,320 Speaker 1: It's time to get inside the Giants hunt. That's Giants, Giants, 2 00:00:07,040 --> 00:00:07,800 Speaker 1: give me some jobs. 3 00:00:07,840 --> 00:00:11,320 Speaker 2: Part of the Giants podcast Network. Let's welcome to the 4 00:00:11,320 --> 00:00:13,600 Speaker 2: Giants Little podcasts, all brought to you by Citizens the 5 00:00:13,640 --> 00:00:16,599 Speaker 2: official bank of the Giants, John Schmelk. Every Tuesday, we're 6 00:00:16,640 --> 00:00:19,160 Speaker 2: joined by the one and only Sean O'Hara and Sewan 7 00:00:19,320 --> 00:00:23,119 Speaker 2: Coming off that forty lost to the Dallas Cowboys with 8 00:00:23,600 --> 00:00:28,600 Speaker 2: seven sacks allowed, twelve official quarterback hits. Unofficially, Daniel Jones 9 00:00:28,640 --> 00:00:31,360 Speaker 2: got hit a lot more than that perfect guy to 10 00:00:31,400 --> 00:00:34,200 Speaker 2: talk to you about offensive line play. So let's start 11 00:00:34,240 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 2: broadly here. When you watch the Giants offensive line in 12 00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:38,520 Speaker 2: that Week one matchup, what'd you say? 13 00:00:38,880 --> 00:00:41,160 Speaker 1: Yeah, it was it was a tough performance. I think 14 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:45,400 Speaker 1: obviously Week one Saday Night football to draw the Dallas Cowboys. 15 00:00:45,760 --> 00:00:48,360 Speaker 1: That defense, that's a tough draw. I mean you saw 16 00:00:48,360 --> 00:00:53,080 Speaker 1: the explosiveness, a lot of great different exotic looks as well, but. 17 00:00:53,320 --> 00:00:55,240 Speaker 2: And frankly speed and a lot of guys. I mean 18 00:00:55,240 --> 00:00:57,560 Speaker 2: they just throw waves and waves Like Sam Williams is 19 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:00,000 Speaker 2: their fourth or fifth pass rusher. That dude looked really good. 20 00:01:00,200 --> 00:01:02,720 Speaker 1: Yeah, even in that first drive they wrote like halfway 21 00:01:02,720 --> 00:01:06,120 Speaker 1: through the drive, there was a whole fresh new set 22 00:01:06,120 --> 00:01:08,200 Speaker 1: of defensive lineman. There was four new guys out there, 23 00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:10,640 Speaker 1: so they did a good job rotating that. But you 24 00:01:10,680 --> 00:01:12,520 Speaker 1: know you mentioned it. Look, it was ugly. There's no 25 00:01:12,800 --> 00:01:16,400 Speaker 1: there's no way to sugarcoat this. It was a really 26 00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:20,400 Speaker 1: a tough performance down across the line, really, and you 27 00:01:20,440 --> 00:01:23,160 Speaker 1: can't say it was just one guy had a rough game. No, 28 00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: every offensive lineman had a couple of plays in there 29 00:01:26,400 --> 00:01:28,960 Speaker 1: that they wish they could have had back. You mentioned 30 00:01:29,000 --> 00:01:31,400 Speaker 1: the seven sacks. As an offensive lineman, when you have 31 00:01:31,440 --> 00:01:34,479 Speaker 1: seven sacks, it's not only that game is it tough 32 00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:37,080 Speaker 1: to recover from. That's tough to recover for the whole year. 33 00:01:37,400 --> 00:01:40,640 Speaker 1: I mean sometimes you know, teams will go seven games 34 00:01:40,680 --> 00:01:43,440 Speaker 1: with seven sacks, So to start out the season with that, 35 00:01:44,200 --> 00:01:47,120 Speaker 1: you know you're you're finding uphill battle or the entire 36 00:01:47,160 --> 00:01:49,640 Speaker 1: season to try to recover from that. I think the 37 00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: biggest thing that jumped out on me was the inability 38 00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:56,840 Speaker 1: to allow Daniel Jones to set his feet in the pocket. 39 00:01:57,640 --> 00:02:01,560 Speaker 1: It created issues the entire game and the first drive alone, 40 00:02:01,800 --> 00:02:03,520 Speaker 1: you know, you could start see some of the pressure. 41 00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:06,800 Speaker 1: Daniel scrambled a couple of times there were a couple 42 00:02:06,800 --> 00:02:11,120 Speaker 1: of unblocked defenders. But then you know, even as the 43 00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:13,360 Speaker 1: game progressed, you know, there was a first down play 44 00:02:13,360 --> 00:02:16,400 Speaker 1: action pass play. It was a two man route protection 45 00:02:16,520 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 1: NAX protection. Those absolutely should be a big play at 46 00:02:21,120 --> 00:02:24,240 Speaker 1: worse than incompletion, but it can't be a sack. Now. 47 00:02:24,320 --> 00:02:27,040 Speaker 1: Part of that was the tight end Daniel Bellinger. So 48 00:02:27,480 --> 00:02:29,560 Speaker 1: as much as these sacks always get attributed to the 49 00:02:29,560 --> 00:02:31,960 Speaker 1: offensive line, Daniel Bellinger did not really do a good 50 00:02:32,040 --> 00:02:36,000 Speaker 1: job blocking on that play, and Bretterson and John Michael 51 00:02:36,000 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: Schmidz seemed to kind of get lost and Glewinsky as 52 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:40,960 Speaker 1: well as far as who had the nose guard on 53 00:02:41,000 --> 00:02:43,600 Speaker 1: that play. So there were a number of things correct 54 00:02:43,600 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 1: from a technique standpoint. Let's start with the right side. 55 00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:50,000 Speaker 1: Evan Neil. I think the one thing that he struggled 56 00:02:50,000 --> 00:02:52,440 Speaker 1: with coming out of college was being too top heavy 57 00:02:52,639 --> 00:02:55,280 Speaker 1: and too many times he was on the ground or 58 00:02:55,720 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 1: he was bending at the waist and that got him 59 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,000 Speaker 1: in trouble and pass protection quite a few times. 60 00:03:00,080 --> 00:03:03,200 Speaker 2: With the speed rush, they were just attacking his outside 61 00:03:03,240 --> 00:03:04,200 Speaker 2: shoulder relentlessly. 62 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:08,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, that that speed rush is probably his biggest fear, 63 00:03:08,120 --> 00:03:09,880 Speaker 1: and I think that's What gets him in trouble sometimes 64 00:03:09,919 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: is he's so easy. He's trying so hard to get 65 00:03:12,280 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: out and cover up that rusher, and then he gets 66 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:17,119 Speaker 1: off balance. And I think that was one of the struggles. 67 00:03:17,160 --> 00:03:18,959 Speaker 1: There were some good things that I thought he did 68 00:03:18,960 --> 00:03:22,080 Speaker 1: in the run game. I thought collectively as a unit 69 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:23,720 Speaker 1: the run game, they were very physical. 70 00:03:23,800 --> 00:03:25,880 Speaker 2: Yeah. I actually thought they'd run blocked pretty well. 71 00:03:25,880 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: And again, yeah, I just didn't get enough opportunities to 72 00:03:28,080 --> 00:03:31,960 Speaker 1: do it. That nothing, and that's how things change. Things 73 00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,800 Speaker 1: things changed really quick. There's a Mike Twice Entyson quote 74 00:03:34,800 --> 00:03:36,520 Speaker 1: about that, you know, everybody's got a game plan until 75 00:03:36,560 --> 00:03:39,040 Speaker 1: they get popped in the mouth. I think that was 76 00:03:39,080 --> 00:03:41,480 Speaker 1: definitely a product of that, a byproduct, if you will. 77 00:03:42,240 --> 00:03:44,560 Speaker 1: But that first drive, you know, there were some really 78 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:47,600 Speaker 1: good runs in there, and actually that fourth down run 79 00:03:47,680 --> 00:03:49,560 Speaker 1: by Saquon he almost broke it. It was almost to 80 00:03:49,600 --> 00:03:52,200 Speaker 1: the touchdown. It was an ankle bite away on that 81 00:03:52,280 --> 00:03:53,680 Speaker 1: third and it was thirty and one or fourth and one. 82 00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:57,000 Speaker 2: That a lot of gap scheme in that first drive, 83 00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,320 Speaker 2: to a lot of polers and stuff like that, trying 84 00:03:59,320 --> 00:04:01,320 Speaker 2: to take advantage to the Cowboys defense, which is a 85 00:04:01,320 --> 00:04:03,920 Speaker 2: little bit faster, but maybe not as big as the middle. 86 00:04:04,080 --> 00:04:05,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was. There was a lot of pulling the 87 00:04:05,840 --> 00:04:07,400 Speaker 1: guard and trying to kick out, and a lot of 88 00:04:07,440 --> 00:04:09,640 Speaker 1: that was they were attacking Michael Parsons. They were trying 89 00:04:09,640 --> 00:04:11,480 Speaker 1: to pull a guard and get a guard or a 90 00:04:11,520 --> 00:04:13,720 Speaker 1: tight end on the move to kick him out. And 91 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:14,880 Speaker 1: that's one of the things you do to try to 92 00:04:14,920 --> 00:04:17,359 Speaker 1: equalize a player like that. You run at him and 93 00:04:17,400 --> 00:04:20,080 Speaker 1: you know, you give give somebody an angle on the 94 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:22,240 Speaker 1: blocking with that. I thought on that fourth and one 95 00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,040 Speaker 1: as well, John Michael Schmid's did a nice job. He 96 00:04:24,080 --> 00:04:26,520 Speaker 1: reached the nose. That was big John Hankins and giant. 97 00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,600 Speaker 1: That's the toughest block has a center to do, and 98 00:04:29,760 --> 00:04:32,400 Speaker 1: on the biggest play of the game at that point, 99 00:04:33,240 --> 00:04:35,039 Speaker 1: he did a nice job for that. I thought Mark 100 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:38,480 Speaker 1: Lewinsky he had a rough game as well, and there 101 00:04:38,480 --> 00:04:41,400 Speaker 1: were a couple of moments where he just seemed to 102 00:04:41,800 --> 00:04:44,640 Speaker 1: It wasn't the initial rush, it was the counter move 103 00:04:44,839 --> 00:04:47,560 Speaker 1: and staying on the block. There was one play where 104 00:04:47,560 --> 00:04:50,040 Speaker 1: Michael Parsons kind of beat him to the inside and 105 00:04:50,080 --> 00:04:53,279 Speaker 1: he was just a little bit slow getting you know, 106 00:04:53,400 --> 00:04:55,960 Speaker 1: the change of direction and power stepping in and actually 107 00:04:56,279 --> 00:04:58,400 Speaker 1: he went to punch on the second move, and Michael 108 00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:01,120 Speaker 1: went underneath the punch and that was the sack. I 109 00:05:01,120 --> 00:05:04,120 Speaker 1: think that was on might have been a third down sack. 110 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:05,960 Speaker 2: Which is, by the way, why Dallas tries to get 111 00:05:06,000 --> 00:05:08,240 Speaker 2: Parsons wind up on guards, right, They're not built to 112 00:05:08,279 --> 00:05:09,359 Speaker 2: deal with that those type of. 113 00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:11,520 Speaker 1: As they did just that, they moved him around. He 114 00:05:11,560 --> 00:05:13,880 Speaker 1: saw him on Glewinsky, you saw him, you know, on 115 00:05:13,880 --> 00:05:15,840 Speaker 1: on Bretison, you saw him kind of moving all over 116 00:05:15,880 --> 00:05:18,200 Speaker 1: the place, so you know, across the board. And then 117 00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:21,400 Speaker 1: Andrew Thomas of course that false start, which you know 118 00:05:21,440 --> 00:05:23,760 Speaker 1: there's a little gray area there, you know, on the 119 00:05:23,800 --> 00:05:25,800 Speaker 1: third and two that first drive, that was kind of 120 00:05:25,839 --> 00:05:28,080 Speaker 1: like the start of the unraveling, and then that moved 121 00:05:28,080 --> 00:05:29,360 Speaker 1: it to third and seven, and then we had the 122 00:05:29,400 --> 00:05:30,839 Speaker 1: bad snap by John Michael Schmidtz. 123 00:05:30,839 --> 00:05:32,919 Speaker 2: I'll put it this way. On Thursday night football that 124 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:34,800 Speaker 2: would not have been a penalty for one reason. On 125 00:05:34,800 --> 00:05:36,159 Speaker 2: Sunday Night football, that was a pedal. 126 00:05:36,200 --> 00:05:38,560 Speaker 1: John Taylor got away with about five to six times. 127 00:05:39,240 --> 00:05:41,239 Speaker 1: So I think that might have been clearly a memo 128 00:05:41,279 --> 00:05:43,760 Speaker 1: said down be right, that we've got to figure a 129 00:05:43,760 --> 00:05:45,440 Speaker 1: way to figure out a way to solve this because 130 00:05:45,440 --> 00:05:46,960 Speaker 1: we don't want this to become a narrative. 131 00:05:47,120 --> 00:05:49,360 Speaker 2: And by the way, technically was the correct call. 132 00:05:49,480 --> 00:05:52,040 Speaker 1: Just for the rest, there was definitely a little premature 133 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:54,520 Speaker 1: move and it was Michah Parsons that he was going again. 134 00:05:54,560 --> 00:05:57,400 Speaker 1: So that's the Micah Parsons effect that here you have 135 00:05:57,520 --> 00:06:00,000 Speaker 1: this stud rusher and he's so explosive on that first 136 00:06:00,040 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: step that you know sometimes office lineman, can you know, 137 00:06:02,640 --> 00:06:05,520 Speaker 1: just get a little eager. So I think they're there. 138 00:06:05,560 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 1: Those are all correctable things. And I think to your 139 00:06:08,640 --> 00:06:11,000 Speaker 1: point about you know, the game getting out of hand early, 140 00:06:11,480 --> 00:06:14,120 Speaker 1: if the game, if it was still a one score game, 141 00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:16,280 Speaker 1: if you're down three nothing, or if you're down you know, 142 00:06:16,600 --> 00:06:19,120 Speaker 1: you know, by six points and it's a one score game, 143 00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,960 Speaker 1: you could still say balanced. And I think that there 144 00:06:23,040 --> 00:06:25,680 Speaker 1: was just never any rhythm after that first drive. There 145 00:06:25,720 --> 00:06:28,279 Speaker 1: was never any rhythm, nothing ever strung together after that 146 00:06:28,279 --> 00:06:30,159 Speaker 1: first drive. I think they went three and out, you know, 147 00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:31,040 Speaker 1: three times. 148 00:06:30,839 --> 00:06:32,880 Speaker 2: You had the three three times yep on the. 149 00:06:32,800 --> 00:06:35,200 Speaker 1: Saquan drop, and so you just didn't stay out there. 150 00:06:35,240 --> 00:06:37,040 Speaker 1: There were no first downs converts, so you could never 151 00:06:37,120 --> 00:06:40,520 Speaker 1: get into that rhythm. But I think going back and 152 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:44,279 Speaker 1: looking at the film John. There were opportunities to throw 153 00:06:44,279 --> 00:06:46,520 Speaker 1: the football down the field. There were guys Darius Slayton 154 00:06:46,600 --> 00:06:49,400 Speaker 1: ran right by Treyvon Diggs on a play action pass 155 00:06:49,440 --> 00:06:52,279 Speaker 1: play and if Daniel Jones had time to set his feet, 156 00:06:52,480 --> 00:06:54,480 Speaker 1: it could have been a big play. There were a 157 00:06:54,520 --> 00:06:56,720 Speaker 1: couple of times where I thought that the bulletz pick 158 00:06:56,800 --> 00:06:58,760 Speaker 1: up could have been better. They could have done a 159 00:06:58,760 --> 00:07:00,720 Speaker 1: better job kind of slide in the line one way 160 00:07:00,800 --> 00:07:02,880 Speaker 1: or the other. Leydon vander esh came in on a 161 00:07:02,920 --> 00:07:05,400 Speaker 1: couple of blitzes, and I think that creates some havoc. 162 00:07:05,480 --> 00:07:09,400 Speaker 1: But the NFL is a copycat league, and what everybody's 163 00:07:09,440 --> 00:07:11,560 Speaker 1: doing right now, what Arizona's doing is looking at those 164 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,320 Speaker 1: blitzes and those fronts and those stunts, and they're saying, 165 00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:15,880 Speaker 1: we're going to find out if you can put the 166 00:07:15,880 --> 00:07:18,480 Speaker 1: fire out, and you have to put it out quickly 167 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,600 Speaker 1: otherwise teams are going to continue to do it. So 168 00:07:21,400 --> 00:07:23,240 Speaker 1: there's certainly a lot of room for improvement from that. 169 00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:26,400 Speaker 1: I know everybody's you know, the week one reaction is 170 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,240 Speaker 1: oh my gosh, are we that bad? No, Like this 171 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:31,240 Speaker 1: is not an indicator. I call it sloppy September for 172 00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,520 Speaker 1: a reason. The first two weeks of the season. It's 173 00:07:33,560 --> 00:07:35,880 Speaker 1: the sloppiest football you will see all season long. And 174 00:07:35,880 --> 00:07:38,800 Speaker 1: there's a reason for that. The preseason is shortened. Guys 175 00:07:38,800 --> 00:07:41,600 Speaker 1: don't get as many reps in that, so you're seeing 176 00:07:41,640 --> 00:07:44,280 Speaker 1: the blocking and tackling suffer from that. I think this 177 00:07:44,360 --> 00:07:47,960 Speaker 1: is a prideful group. I think Bobby Johnson is gonna, 178 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:50,120 Speaker 1: you know, let them simmer on this a little bit, 179 00:07:50,440 --> 00:07:52,920 Speaker 1: then flush it out, and then let's let's get back 180 00:07:52,960 --> 00:07:55,360 Speaker 1: to work and let's get back to the fundamentals. Because 181 00:07:55,360 --> 00:07:57,360 Speaker 1: the reality is this is a good group. But if 182 00:07:57,360 --> 00:07:59,280 Speaker 1: also that was the first game they've ever played together, 183 00:07:59,320 --> 00:08:01,200 Speaker 1: so there's some things that they still need to work 184 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:02,080 Speaker 1: on to mesh. 185 00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 2: What did you think of Schmitz's overall performance. You mentioned 186 00:08:04,360 --> 00:08:05,520 Speaker 2: a couple of players where I know you thought he 187 00:08:05,520 --> 00:08:06,120 Speaker 2: did a good job. 188 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:08,560 Speaker 1: I thought Schmids was really stout and this was a 189 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,480 Speaker 1: This was a good defensive front. Jonathan Hankins is a 190 00:08:11,480 --> 00:08:12,000 Speaker 1: big dude. 191 00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:12,920 Speaker 2: You know. 192 00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:16,200 Speaker 1: They throw a lot at you from a look, standpoint movement, 193 00:08:16,720 --> 00:08:18,880 Speaker 1: a lot of stunts and even there was a lot 194 00:08:18,880 --> 00:08:22,400 Speaker 1: of five downlooks with a gap pressure and stunts included 195 00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:25,560 Speaker 1: in that pressure. I thought he did a pretty decent 196 00:08:25,640 --> 00:08:28,280 Speaker 1: job for his first start in the NFL. I thought physically, 197 00:08:28,600 --> 00:08:30,720 Speaker 1: he looked the part I mentioned the run game where 198 00:08:30,760 --> 00:08:33,640 Speaker 1: he had some nice blocks on the reach block, there 199 00:08:33,679 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: was some nice combo blocks. He did a nice job 200 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: blocking back on some of the guard polls. 201 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:39,719 Speaker 2: He shealed off an inside linebacker. I think getting to 202 00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:41,360 Speaker 2: the second level on a run off the middle too, 203 00:08:41,360 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 2: which is good. 204 00:08:42,200 --> 00:08:43,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, he did a nice job with that. I think, 205 00:08:44,040 --> 00:08:46,000 Speaker 1: you know, ultimately as a center though, if you have 206 00:08:46,000 --> 00:08:47,959 Speaker 1: a bad snap like that in a game like that's 207 00:08:48,000 --> 00:08:50,320 Speaker 1: the one thing that driving home you just you're harping on. 208 00:08:50,400 --> 00:08:52,160 Speaker 2: So is that a wet ball thing you think? 209 00:08:52,280 --> 00:08:54,560 Speaker 1: Or it almost looked to me like the ball, Yeah, 210 00:08:54,600 --> 00:08:56,160 Speaker 1: it slipped out. It was a little low like coming 211 00:08:56,160 --> 00:08:58,199 Speaker 1: out of hand, you know. And I don't know if 212 00:08:58,200 --> 00:09:02,360 Speaker 1: he maybe wasn't sure some times, oddly enough, sometimes at 213 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,640 Speaker 1: the center there's a momentary lapse where you're like, is 214 00:09:05,640 --> 00:09:08,000 Speaker 1: he under center or is he in shotgun? And so 215 00:09:08,080 --> 00:09:10,360 Speaker 1: you can kind of be in that gray area. But 216 00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:13,360 Speaker 1: I think that's something that is fixable and I don't 217 00:09:13,360 --> 00:09:14,920 Speaker 1: think it's something that's going to be an issue. 218 00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:17,080 Speaker 2: Just to give you an idea, the Giants had twelve 219 00:09:17,160 --> 00:09:19,000 Speaker 2: drives in the game, right, two of those drives are 220 00:09:19,040 --> 00:09:23,199 Speaker 2: one play drives to fumble by Hodgens and the interception, 221 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:25,040 Speaker 2: So I'm gonna ta those. I'm gonna throw them at Okay, 222 00:09:25,280 --> 00:09:27,400 Speaker 2: So you would ten real drives in the game, showing 223 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,480 Speaker 2: the Giants only had two drives of those ten where 224 00:09:30,480 --> 00:09:34,160 Speaker 2: there wasn't a sack or an offensive holding penalty. How 225 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:37,200 Speaker 2: impossible is it for a quarterback like Daniel Jones to 226 00:09:37,240 --> 00:09:39,120 Speaker 2: function if that's what he's dealing with. 227 00:09:39,320 --> 00:09:41,480 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough. And not only that, but now you 228 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:43,920 Speaker 1: get a sack, and now it's second and fifteen, second 229 00:09:43,960 --> 00:09:46,920 Speaker 1: and seventeen, so now you're behind the sticks and it's tough. 230 00:09:46,960 --> 00:09:49,480 Speaker 1: It's tough to overcome that, you know. And the reality 231 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,880 Speaker 1: is it could have been more than seven sacks because 232 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:54,319 Speaker 1: Daniel ran away from some of those pressures and was 233 00:09:54,360 --> 00:09:55,640 Speaker 1: able to get out of some of those, and. 234 00:09:55,600 --> 00:09:57,880 Speaker 2: A couple got called back because the defensive holding penalties 235 00:09:57,880 --> 00:09:59,160 Speaker 2: and the secondary. 236 00:09:58,679 --> 00:10:03,120 Speaker 1: Yeah, so it was definitely a tough start offensively. You know, 237 00:10:03,160 --> 00:10:05,319 Speaker 1: I think there's some things that you know, Mike Kafka 238 00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: and Brian Dable as I'm sure looking at and saying, hey, 239 00:10:07,880 --> 00:10:10,200 Speaker 1: let's let's find a way to get a little more 240 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,199 Speaker 1: rhythm before we start calling some of these plays and 241 00:10:12,400 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: so that everybody can kind of settle down. You know, 242 00:10:15,120 --> 00:10:18,720 Speaker 1: there was times like we mentioned, when you're calling a 243 00:10:18,760 --> 00:10:21,640 Speaker 1: max protection play and you only have two guys out 244 00:10:21,640 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: in a route. Those are the type of plays that 245 00:10:23,880 --> 00:10:26,120 Speaker 1: you have to you have to protect on. You can't 246 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:26,920 Speaker 1: let that happen. 247 00:10:28,120 --> 00:10:31,040 Speaker 2: It was literally seven guys blocking four, That's what it was. 248 00:10:31,160 --> 00:10:33,439 Speaker 1: Yeah, and when that happens, you know, the quarterbacks you 249 00:10:33,640 --> 00:10:35,400 Speaker 1: have all day. You know, there's times on third down 250 00:10:35,440 --> 00:10:37,240 Speaker 1: when you know there's gonna be an unblocked defender or 251 00:10:37,280 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 1: there's gonna be some pressure because you know you only 252 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,840 Speaker 1: only have five guys. You're going empty formation and there's 253 00:10:41,880 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 1: nobody to help out. But you know those are things 254 00:10:44,280 --> 00:10:47,679 Speaker 1: that they can all correct, and you know you also 255 00:10:47,760 --> 00:10:49,920 Speaker 1: can kind of look at all, right, did we help 256 00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:52,480 Speaker 1: out the offensive line if you know that they're struggle enough? 257 00:10:52,480 --> 00:10:55,280 Speaker 1: Did we chip enough? You know? Do we need to 258 00:10:55,440 --> 00:10:57,880 Speaker 1: have our running backs kind of We call them swab 259 00:10:58,000 --> 00:10:59,440 Speaker 1: on the way through. If you're out in a pass 260 00:10:59,520 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: route on your way out, you either swap through the 261 00:11:02,280 --> 00:11:05,640 Speaker 1: B gap or the C gap. Give somebody a chip 262 00:11:05,679 --> 00:11:07,480 Speaker 1: on your way out. Those are things you can kind 263 00:11:07,480 --> 00:11:08,240 Speaker 1: of add to help out. 264 00:11:08,400 --> 00:11:10,520 Speaker 2: Johns Total Podcast is brought to you by Citizens, the 265 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,679 Speaker 2: official bank of the Giants from game data.

Are 271 00:11:28,920 --> 00:11:30,520 Speaker 3: you ready for all that life brings? 272 00:11:32,080 --> 00:11:33,520 Speaker 2: All right, Joan, let's jump to the other side of 273 00:11:33,520 --> 00:11:35,720 Speaker 2: the ball now on defense, unless there's something else on 274 00:11:35,760 --> 00:11:37,520 Speaker 2: offense that you think is worth pointing out. I just 275 00:11:37,559 --> 00:11:38,920 Speaker 2: thought the whole story was upfront. 276 00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:41,520 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think that's where it started, and that was 277 00:11:41,520 --> 00:11:44,200 Speaker 1: really some of the struggles, you know, for Daniel Jones 278 00:11:44,559 --> 00:11:46,920 Speaker 1: two interceptions. One of them wasn't his fault, the Saquon 279 00:11:46,960 --> 00:11:50,040 Speaker 1: Barklay thing I meant goes to the quarterback. There's got 280 00:11:50,080 --> 00:11:51,920 Speaker 1: to be a way that we can fix that, because 281 00:11:52,000 --> 00:11:54,600 Speaker 1: you know clearly that was on Saquon. But the second 282 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,840 Speaker 1: interception was, you know, obviously a poor decision from that standpoint. 283 00:11:57,840 --> 00:11:59,520 Speaker 1: That's something that Danie Jones did a great job of 284 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:02,600 Speaker 1: last year not making those errors too much on that. Yeah, 285 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: and we saw it, you know, previous years, trying to 286 00:12:05,280 --> 00:12:07,200 Speaker 1: make something happen instead of just hey, throw the ball 287 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:10,199 Speaker 1: away live for another down. You can't have the turnovers. 288 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 2: And he was fortunate on that one pass over the 289 00:12:12,080 --> 00:12:15,760 Speaker 2: middle that basically took Malice Cooker out in the neck 290 00:12:15,880 --> 00:12:17,319 Speaker 2: that he just couldn't come up with a catch on 291 00:12:17,400 --> 00:12:19,040 Speaker 2: that could have been a third interception as well. 292 00:12:19,120 --> 00:12:21,200 Speaker 1: Yeah, I think he's probably disappointed. There was a throw 293 00:12:21,240 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: that he made a Darren Waller on kind of like 294 00:12:23,840 --> 00:12:26,560 Speaker 1: a little little jerk route where he was breaking to 295 00:12:26,600 --> 00:12:29,280 Speaker 1: the sideline where you know when at that balls a 296 00:12:29,320 --> 00:12:31,960 Speaker 1: little bit out further outside is not batted down by 297 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:32,960 Speaker 1: the defender. 298 00:12:33,320 --> 00:12:37,120 Speaker 2: He was behind passed the Paris Campbell near the sideline toide. 299 00:12:37,200 --> 00:12:39,080 Speaker 1: I think there was a couple of times too where 300 00:12:39,400 --> 00:12:42,920 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones probably was looking at the wrong guy, Like 301 00:12:43,080 --> 00:12:45,360 Speaker 1: he was looking at Darren Waller too much, and there 302 00:12:45,360 --> 00:12:46,960 Speaker 1: were other guys open at times, so. 303 00:12:47,000 --> 00:12:48,480 Speaker 2: I'd say he was probably looking at the rush too. 304 00:12:48,520 --> 00:12:51,240 Speaker 1: You don't want to Yeah, that was clearly a factor, 305 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:53,640 Speaker 1: and you can't blame a quarterback when all of a sudden, 306 00:12:53,800 --> 00:12:55,840 Speaker 1: you feel like every time you turn your back to 307 00:12:55,880 --> 00:12:58,080 Speaker 1: the defense and turn around a throw, somebody's in your grill. 308 00:12:58,960 --> 00:13:01,800 Speaker 1: That's not the way that's and but you know, even 309 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:04,280 Speaker 1: even early on, you know, we talked leading up in 310 00:13:04,320 --> 00:13:06,080 Speaker 1: the game about how do you slow down Michael Parces 311 00:13:06,080 --> 00:13:09,199 Speaker 1: in that rush? You do screens Well, they tried to screenplay, 312 00:13:09,320 --> 00:13:13,760 Speaker 1: and it's still you know, Daniel was still pressured and 313 00:13:13,920 --> 00:13:16,760 Speaker 1: ended up you know, being I think at tackle for 314 00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:19,480 Speaker 1: a loss on a screenplay because it got all jammed 315 00:13:19,559 --> 00:13:21,880 Speaker 1: up in there. So the execution can certainly be better. 316 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:23,760 Speaker 2: All right, A lot of people were critical of the 317 00:13:23,760 --> 00:13:25,760 Speaker 2: pass rush in this game. Showing them. My answer to 318 00:13:25,800 --> 00:13:27,960 Speaker 2: them and tell me if it's fair or unfair, is 319 00:13:28,000 --> 00:13:31,120 Speaker 2: that Dallas never felt the need to like run five 320 00:13:31,120 --> 00:13:33,720 Speaker 2: and seven step drops. I mean, Dak Prescott didn't have 321 00:13:33,760 --> 00:13:36,480 Speaker 2: to do anything. You know, they had the early lead, 322 00:13:36,520 --> 00:13:38,559 Speaker 2: they knew the defense was playing really well. They ran 323 00:13:38,600 --> 00:13:40,360 Speaker 2: the ball fine. They weren't great, but they were fine. 324 00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:43,240 Speaker 2: And it's a lot of this is game flow, where 325 00:13:43,320 --> 00:13:46,800 Speaker 2: to your point, Dallas goes up big giants can't run it, 326 00:13:47,280 --> 00:13:49,760 Speaker 2: go get a pass rush. Dallas on the other hand. 327 00:13:50,320 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: We don't have to take any chances here. We're gonna 328 00:13:51,960 --> 00:13:54,839 Speaker 2: get the ball out quick. So I just think twenty 329 00:13:54,840 --> 00:13:57,240 Speaker 2: three pass attention for Prescott. I just think there was 330 00:13:57,360 --> 00:14:00,240 Speaker 2: a limited amount of opportunities here for this passers get 331 00:14:00,280 --> 00:14:02,640 Speaker 2: after Dallas just because of how the game went. 332 00:14:02,840 --> 00:14:05,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, there was a lot of quick game, a lot 333 00:14:05,000 --> 00:14:08,400 Speaker 1: of the quick throws. You know, you saw a couple 334 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:11,280 Speaker 1: of nice designed rub routes. You know that big play 335 00:14:11,280 --> 00:14:13,559 Speaker 1: to Ceedee Lamb. The tight end did a great job 336 00:14:13,679 --> 00:14:15,560 Speaker 1: kind of picking a Dory Jackson. They both actually kind 337 00:14:15,559 --> 00:14:16,680 Speaker 1: of slipped on that play. 338 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 2: And Derry Jackson, by the way, said that was on him. 339 00:14:18,400 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 2: He did not really he wasn't as aware of as 340 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:22,000 Speaker 2: he should have been of all that traffic at. 341 00:14:21,920 --> 00:14:23,360 Speaker 1: The I think part of is he kind of like 342 00:14:23,440 --> 00:14:25,280 Speaker 1: on the start of that play he kind of slipped 343 00:14:25,360 --> 00:14:28,680 Speaker 1: as well as Ceedee Lamb. And then you know, now 344 00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,360 Speaker 1: you slip, Now you feel like, oh I'm behind him. 345 00:14:30,400 --> 00:14:32,000 Speaker 1: I got to catch up, and he there to see 346 00:14:32,040 --> 00:14:33,840 Speaker 1: the tight end coming in. He kind of he actually 347 00:14:33,840 --> 00:14:36,040 Speaker 1: initiated the contact. That's why I wasn't called the penalty. 348 00:14:36,040 --> 00:14:38,040 Speaker 2: And the tight end was just running a round tight 349 00:14:38,160 --> 00:14:38,720 Speaker 2: end and. 350 00:14:39,040 --> 00:14:40,560 Speaker 1: You know, they put they have the tight end running 351 00:14:40,560 --> 00:14:42,120 Speaker 1: that route for a reason. You hope that there's he 352 00:14:42,240 --> 00:14:44,720 Speaker 1: just kind of makes the bubble either over the top 353 00:14:44,760 --> 00:14:47,680 Speaker 1: or underneath. But you know, there was a lot of 354 00:14:47,720 --> 00:14:50,880 Speaker 1: throws where the ball came out quick. So even pressures 355 00:14:50,880 --> 00:14:53,400 Speaker 1: and blitzed, it didn't seem like the Giants. The Giants 356 00:14:53,400 --> 00:14:56,120 Speaker 1: defense blitzed as much as they normally do, and I 357 00:14:56,120 --> 00:14:58,080 Speaker 1: think part of it is because the way the game 358 00:14:58,120 --> 00:14:59,720 Speaker 1: was dictating it. It's, you know, we don't want to 359 00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:01,680 Speaker 1: give up big play and they were trying to prevent that. 360 00:15:02,600 --> 00:15:06,200 Speaker 1: And you know, look, you're starting two rookie corners. Let's 361 00:15:06,200 --> 00:15:09,600 Speaker 1: not put them in a disinvent heygeous position right out 362 00:15:09,600 --> 00:15:12,160 Speaker 1: of the gate against one of the best scoring offenses 363 00:15:12,160 --> 00:15:14,280 Speaker 1: in the league over the last few years. So, look, 364 00:15:14,320 --> 00:15:16,200 Speaker 1: Dallas is a good team. They were twelve win team 365 00:15:16,280 --> 00:15:18,760 Speaker 1: last year. You could argue that they're better this year 366 00:15:18,800 --> 00:15:24,920 Speaker 1: with the addition of Brandon Cooks Gilmour. On defense. You know, 367 00:15:25,200 --> 00:15:28,040 Speaker 1: I thought that the pass rush while it wasn't there, 368 00:15:28,200 --> 00:15:30,000 Speaker 1: you know, it wasn't there last year either. In two 369 00:15:30,080 --> 00:15:32,840 Speaker 1: games against the Cowboys last year, the Giants had zero sacks. 370 00:15:32,880 --> 00:15:35,520 Speaker 1: So you give credit to their offense line. Did you 371 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:39,200 Speaker 1: have you know, Tyron Smith, a perennial pro bowler. You know, 372 00:15:39,240 --> 00:15:41,800 Speaker 1: I think that more edge pressure. They need, more production 373 00:15:41,880 --> 00:15:45,160 Speaker 1: from Ojilari and from Caveon Thibodeau. I don't think either 374 00:15:45,160 --> 00:15:48,720 Speaker 1: one of those guys really flashed at any point. Dexter 375 00:15:48,800 --> 00:15:51,040 Speaker 1: Lawrence obviously had his hands full with Zach Martin, one 376 00:15:51,080 --> 00:15:54,080 Speaker 1: of the best guards in the league. But you know, 377 00:15:54,080 --> 00:15:56,080 Speaker 1: when the game plays out the way that it does 378 00:15:56,120 --> 00:15:58,800 Speaker 1: like that, yeah, you know, I don't blame the defense 379 00:15:58,840 --> 00:16:01,480 Speaker 1: for that. You know, they're allen and the special teams 380 00:16:01,480 --> 00:16:04,240 Speaker 1: gives up you know, all these points, you're kind of 381 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:06,920 Speaker 1: behind the eight ball. But I thought for the young corners, 382 00:16:06,960 --> 00:16:09,360 Speaker 1: I thought they competed. I thought that they played really well. 383 00:16:09,840 --> 00:16:12,840 Speaker 1: I mean, you did not see guys running free. You know, 384 00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:14,760 Speaker 1: there was a couple there was a nice breakup down 385 00:16:14,760 --> 00:16:16,240 Speaker 1: in the back of the end zone, but that Deontay 386 00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:20,280 Speaker 1: Banks was involved in. And you know, I think there's 387 00:16:20,280 --> 00:16:22,200 Speaker 1: a lot to build on. This will be a different 388 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,960 Speaker 1: offense they're facing next week against Arizona with Josh Dobbs, 389 00:16:25,960 --> 00:16:29,400 Speaker 1: you know, with kind of a new staff, this this 390 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 1: will be a totally different feel and different vibe. But yeah, 391 00:16:32,560 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: it's the NFL is all about bouncing back, and we'll 392 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:36,400 Speaker 1: see how they do all right. 393 00:16:36,640 --> 00:16:38,320 Speaker 2: By the way, Giant fans level winner.

You've probably been through a game 404 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:06,040 Speaker 2: of a two like this before over the course of 405 00:17:06,080 --> 00:17:09,280 Speaker 2: your NFL career. What needs to happen this week in 406 00:17:09,320 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 2: the meeting rooms? Do you watch the tape? Do you 407 00:17:11,000 --> 00:17:13,320 Speaker 2: not watch the tape where you just come back and 408 00:17:13,680 --> 00:17:15,919 Speaker 2: I'm gonna just be really brillian, honest, just play a 409 00:17:16,080 --> 00:17:18,000 Speaker 2: better brand of football. Because if you have a game 410 00:17:18,080 --> 00:17:20,960 Speaker 2: next week where you have two interceptions, one's return for 411 00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,080 Speaker 2: a touchdown, one block field was at a turn for 412 00:17:23,080 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 2: a touchdown, and you fumble the ball not once, not twice, 413 00:17:25,680 --> 00:17:27,600 Speaker 2: not three times, not four times, but five times in 414 00:17:27,640 --> 00:17:30,000 Speaker 2: the game you're gonna get blown out by Arizona two. 415 00:17:30,359 --> 00:17:32,720 Speaker 2: So you just have to play better. So what needs 416 00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 2: to happen this week to either flush this learn from it, 417 00:17:36,160 --> 00:17:38,399 Speaker 2: build off of it? How is a player do you 418 00:17:38,400 --> 00:17:40,440 Speaker 2: handle coming off of a game like this where there's 419 00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:42,959 Speaker 2: really not a ton of great stuff to take out 420 00:17:43,000 --> 00:17:43,119 Speaker 2: of it. 421 00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:45,119 Speaker 1: Yeah, if this was week eight and you played a 422 00:17:45,119 --> 00:17:46,399 Speaker 1: bunch of games, it was like, hey, you know what, 423 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:48,439 Speaker 1: this was a clunker, will flush it away. But the 424 00:17:48,440 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: fact that it's week one, you have to correct it. 425 00:17:50,119 --> 00:17:52,200 Speaker 1: You have to go through the film. You know what. 426 00:17:52,280 --> 00:17:54,520 Speaker 1: I don't care how ugly it is, how painful it is. 427 00:17:54,920 --> 00:17:56,280 Speaker 1: You have to sit there and you have to take 428 00:17:56,280 --> 00:17:58,199 Speaker 1: your medicine and you have to learn from it, because 429 00:17:58,400 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: if you don't learn from a week one now, it's 430 00:18:00,119 --> 00:18:02,520 Speaker 1: gonna segue into week two and bleed into week three. 431 00:18:02,960 --> 00:18:04,199 Speaker 1: Can't have it. You got to put the fire out 432 00:18:04,280 --> 00:18:06,639 Speaker 1: right now. So it's got to be corrected, you know, 433 00:18:06,680 --> 00:18:08,800 Speaker 1: I think the players right now to everybody realize there's 434 00:18:08,800 --> 00:18:11,560 Speaker 1: a lot of football left. You know, week one does 435 00:18:11,640 --> 00:18:15,359 Speaker 1: not determine your season. You Giants have won a Super Bowl, 436 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:17,119 Speaker 1: you know, we won one and oh seven starting out 437 00:18:17,160 --> 00:18:19,640 Speaker 1: ohing to you don't that's not ideal. You don't want that. 438 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,639 Speaker 1: But you know, the first couple of weeks of the season, 439 00:18:23,720 --> 00:18:25,480 Speaker 1: you don't try to judge who you are as a team. 440 00:18:25,520 --> 00:18:29,520 Speaker 1: You just try to get better individually and collectively. And 441 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:31,600 Speaker 1: I think the number one thing is, look this, the 442 00:18:31,680 --> 00:18:34,280 Speaker 1: NFL is tough. It's tough to win football games. You 443 00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,000 Speaker 1: can't beat yourself. And the Giants played sloppy football. They 444 00:18:38,040 --> 00:18:40,520 Speaker 1: turn the ball over. You can't give up a block 445 00:18:40,560 --> 00:18:44,840 Speaker 1: field goal for a touchdown. That that's just technique. Those 446 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:47,119 Speaker 1: are all things that are correctable. But you have to 447 00:18:47,320 --> 00:18:48,960 Speaker 1: you have to face it. You got to face the music. 448 00:18:49,119 --> 00:18:52,439 Speaker 1: And I think for for this entire staff, I think 449 00:18:52,480 --> 00:18:54,199 Speaker 1: they've got a good enough relationship with the players that 450 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,320 Speaker 1: they trust that hey, look we're in the right spot. 451 00:18:56,359 --> 00:18:58,560 Speaker 1: We can get it done. But as a player, you're 452 00:18:58,600 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: getting paid to go out and play an execu you 453 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:01,119 Speaker 1: gotta go do it. 454 00:19:01,560 --> 00:19:03,640 Speaker 2: Good stuff, Sean, thanks, you appreciate it. Man. We'll figure 455 00:19:03,640 --> 00:19:05,440 Speaker 2: out how to do this. Next week. I'll be in Arizona, 456 00:19:05,440 --> 00:19:07,119 Speaker 2: you'll be here, but we'll make it happen. 457 00:19:06,880 --> 00:19:08,800 Speaker 1: And our eyes will be bleeding. It'll be a late 458 00:19:08,920 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: night yes, and at week yes. 459 00:19:10,840 --> 00:19:12,600 Speaker 2: It'll be fun. Though. As the Giants get ready to 460 00:19:12,600 --> 00:19:14,040 Speaker 2: take on the Cardinals, I think the hope is that 461 00:19:14,240 --> 00:19:16,880 Speaker 2: we look back at this game Sean in week seventeen 462 00:19:16,960 --> 00:19:18,800 Speaker 2: and hopefully knock on woo. The Giants are going into 463 00:19:18,800 --> 00:19:20,800 Speaker 2: the playoffs. For I like boy, that really was an admiration. 464 00:19:20,920 --> 00:19:23,479 Speaker 2: There's still no explanation as to how that happened, and 465 00:19:23,520 --> 00:19:25,400 Speaker 2: that now is the goal as you move forward into 466 00:19:25,400 --> 00:19:27,680 Speaker 2: the rest, sign us up for that of the regular season. 467 00:19:27,720 --> 00:19:29,800 Speaker 2: For showing hair, I'm John Schmulk. That's it for the 468 00:19:29,800 --> 00:19:32,000 Speaker 2: Giants Total Podcast, brought to you by Citizens, the official 469 00:19:32,000 --> 00:19:33,960 Speaker 2: bank of the Giants.
