Team president 63 00:03:34,960 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 1: John Marra's announcement of Anderson's induction nearly left him at 64 00:03:38,920 --> 00:03:42,240 Speaker 1: a loss for words. One of the most exciting part 65 00:03:42,280 --> 00:03:45,800 Speaker 1: of my life. I haven't been. I've been. I come speciless. Really, 66 00:03:45,920 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 1: you know, that's never made. I just can't believe it 67 00:03:48,920 --> 00:03:55,200 Speaker 1: because it was nicely done. It was something that I 68 00:03:55,200 --> 00:03:57,240 Speaker 1: I didn't even think there was ever gonna be possible. 69 00:03:57,800 --> 00:04:00,080 Speaker 1: And the reason why I said that is because I 70 00:04:00,160 --> 00:04:02,400 Speaker 1: knew I was a cardinal for so many years and 71 00:04:02,440 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 1: own all the records in in uh St. Louis history, 72 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:10,600 Speaker 1: our cardinal history, and I understood the process, you know, 73 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:12,920 Speaker 1: the process if you're not really drafted here. I didn't 74 00:04:13,040 --> 00:04:16,400 Speaker 1: think that was ever an issue. So I didn't know. 75 00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:18,560 Speaker 1: I didn't think that was gonna ever happen. I didn't 76 00:04:18,600 --> 00:04:20,680 Speaker 1: program my body on my mind to think that I 77 00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 1: was gonna one day to be part of giant tradition 78 00:04:23,320 --> 00:04:26,039 Speaker 1: and the legacy of what the giants all about.

So I think we 131 00:07:14,200 --> 00:07:16,360 Speaker 1: got to be patient, but I think we've got good 132 00:07:16,400 --> 00:07:18,520 Speaker 1: things gonna happen. You were part of a couple of 133 00:07:18,520 --> 00:07:22,560 Speaker 1: different offenses with the Cardinals and the Giants. How radically 134 00:07:22,680 --> 00:07:26,280 Speaker 1: different is this from a traditional old style kind of 135 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:28,600 Speaker 1: offense that maybe the Giants have been running for years 136 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,360 Speaker 1: and that these holdover players will have to get used to. 137 00:07:32,480 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: It's definitely different. Um, you know, we line up two 138 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:38,360 Speaker 1: tight ends and we just smashed the heck out of people. Uh, 139 00:07:38,840 --> 00:07:41,840 Speaker 1: that's not seem to be the philosophy these new era 140 00:07:41,960 --> 00:07:45,600 Speaker 1: of football is seem to be eleven personnail or twelve personnel, 141 00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,360 Speaker 1: which is mostly wide receivers and uh maybe one running back. 142 00:07:49,760 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: And that seemed to be the league where of speeding 143 00:07:52,600 --> 00:07:56,640 Speaker 1: the game up and making a game more more scorable. 144 00:07:57,440 --> 00:08:00,320 Speaker 1: Un Our game was long and boring. But you know 145 00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,800 Speaker 1: that's that's how we did it, you know, and that's 146 00:08:02,800 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: what win championships. You gotta ring that way. Yeah, got 147 00:08:06,480 --> 00:08:09,720 Speaker 1: two rings that way. So so, um, you know it's 148 00:08:09,720 --> 00:08:13,440 Speaker 1: gonna get used to um us old guys looking at 149 00:08:13,440 --> 00:08:15,280 Speaker 1: what they're trying to do now, because you know, we're like, 150 00:08:15,320 --> 00:08:18,440 Speaker 1: if it ain't broken, don't fix it. And we have 151 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,200 Speaker 1: been successful with and the team behind us when the 152 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,840 Speaker 1: ELI had has been successful with the two big backs 153 00:08:23,840 --> 00:08:25,800 Speaker 1: and he's just pounding the ball down there, you know, 154 00:08:25,840 --> 00:08:29,160 Speaker 1: tighty and two tightese sometimes and you know, so now 155 00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,640 Speaker 1: again we've got this new flare, you know, this open offense, 156 00:08:32,679 --> 00:08:35,520 Speaker 1: and it's gonna be atually see what happens. The quarterback 157 00:08:35,559 --> 00:08:38,120 Speaker 1: becomes much more important because he's got to deliver a 158 00:08:38,120 --> 00:08:39,880 Speaker 1: lot more passes and he's got to read a lot 159 00:08:39,920 --> 00:08:41,960 Speaker 1: more and him and the receivers have to be on 160 00:08:41,960 --> 00:08:44,480 Speaker 1: the same page and they've got so much flexibility in 161 00:08:44,520 --> 00:08:47,800 Speaker 1: this offense. What do you see in Daniel Jones that 162 00:08:47,840 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 1: makes you believe he can take it to another level 163 00:08:49,880 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: with a new fangled scheme. Well, I'm a fan of 164 00:08:52,760 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones. I think when you look back at where 165 00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,959 Speaker 1: he was drafted and you look at the people who 166 00:08:59,320 --> 00:09:02,240 Speaker 1: who vouch for him, you know, Eli Payton and Archie 167 00:09:02,240 --> 00:09:04,760 Speaker 1: because he was in their school. So I think we 168 00:09:04,880 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: got the best of the litterally when it came down 169 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:09,800 Speaker 1: to to that, I think the system that he had 170 00:09:09,960 --> 00:09:13,160 Speaker 1: wasn't conduces to him, and that's why he wasn't successful. 171 00:09:13,960 --> 00:09:16,439 Speaker 1: I think he lost like all the rest of him 172 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: and Barkley would say the same thing. They lost faith 173 00:09:18,600 --> 00:09:20,720 Speaker 1: in the offensive line as cose what they was capable 174 00:09:20,760 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: of doing. And as a player, if you lose faith 175 00:09:23,400 --> 00:09:26,960 Speaker 1: in your offensive line, you started running for your life 176 00:09:26,960 --> 00:09:29,440 Speaker 1: before your life is threatened. And you saw a lot 177 00:09:29,480 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: of that with Barkley, and you saw that with Daniel. 178 00:09:32,080 --> 00:09:34,040 Speaker 1: A lot of times he just kind of throw the 179 00:09:34,120 --> 00:09:37,600 Speaker 1: ball to where he thought receivers should have been, and 180 00:09:37,640 --> 00:09:39,560 Speaker 1: a lot of receivers didn't get where that she should 181 00:09:39,600 --> 00:09:41,520 Speaker 1: have been, and you know, it looked bad, and a 182 00:09:41,520 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: lot of interceptions and and a lot of bumbles, but 183 00:09:45,160 --> 00:09:47,480 Speaker 1: a lot of that it's not Daniel Jones fault. A 184 00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:50,800 Speaker 1: lot of it is part of his scheme. Another part 185 00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,560 Speaker 1: is uh, everybody not being on the same page. So 186 00:09:53,600 --> 00:09:57,319 Speaker 1: hopefully again with this, with with Brian's an offense and 187 00:09:57,360 --> 00:10:00,199 Speaker 1: the way he's mathaw minded, you know, I think we've 188 00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:02,280 Speaker 1: got a chance to see something different. And you know, 189 00:10:02,400 --> 00:10:04,560 Speaker 1: right now we were hoping for anything based on what 190 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:07,520 Speaker 1: we sold the last five six years. So it looks 191 00:10:07,559 --> 00:10:10,120 Speaker 1: as though he'll be doing some more rollouts, more moving 192 00:10:10,160 --> 00:10:12,600 Speaker 1: pockets and that kind of stuff. I don't necessarily know 193 00:10:12,640 --> 00:10:15,240 Speaker 1: if he's going to actually rush the ball more. We 194 00:10:15,320 --> 00:10:17,280 Speaker 1: know Josh Allen did a lot of that when he 195 00:10:17,320 --> 00:10:19,440 Speaker 1: was with the Bills. I think when you put your 196 00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:23,000 Speaker 1: quarterback at the risks as a running back, then you 197 00:10:23,040 --> 00:10:26,000 Speaker 1: put yourself at the risk of him not making through 198 00:10:26,000 --> 00:10:30,440 Speaker 1: the whole season. Um, that don't last long. You know, 199 00:10:30,520 --> 00:10:34,240 Speaker 1: you get away waiting for two or three weeks. But overall, um, 200 00:10:34,360 --> 00:10:36,880 Speaker 1: if he's your decision maker, he's the one that makes 201 00:10:36,920 --> 00:10:39,319 Speaker 1: your offense go, then you can't put him at rich 202 00:10:39,360 --> 00:10:41,120 Speaker 1: And then again, why do you put all this money 203 00:10:41,160 --> 00:10:43,480 Speaker 1: into running backs if you're not going to You think 204 00:10:43,679 --> 00:10:47,720 Speaker 1: that that okay quarterback called quarter back? You know, stand 205 00:10:47,800 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 1: back there throw the ball. Running Backs are running backs. 206 00:10:52,040 --> 00:10:55,920 Speaker 1: So unless football has really changed their method of what 207 00:10:56,000 --> 00:11:01,040 Speaker 1: those two jobs titles are, then I'm told the loss 208 00:11:01,120 --> 00:11:04,160 Speaker 1: because running back runs to the football. Quarterback throws the football. 209 00:11:04,320 --> 00:11:06,360 Speaker 1: That's how I grew up, That's what I was talking 210 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:08,560 Speaker 1: And all the time the quarterback actually ran with the 211 00:11:08,559 --> 00:11:11,240 Speaker 1: football when the play broke down and he saw an 212 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:14,040 Speaker 1: opportunity to mix up that special happen. Other than that, 213 00:11:14,960 --> 00:11:17,080 Speaker 1: he's still back then through the ball. Sam did it 214 00:11:17,160 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: very well well. Speaking of running backs, say Kwan Barkley, 215 00:11:21,080 --> 00:11:23,520 Speaker 1: after a couple of years of really being banged up, 216 00:11:24,200 --> 00:11:26,080 Speaker 1: has had a healthy off season for the first time 217 00:11:26,080 --> 00:11:28,760 Speaker 1: in a while and looks as though he's as fry 218 00:11:28,840 --> 00:11:31,559 Speaker 1: as ever and has all of his tools operating at 219 00:11:31,559 --> 00:11:34,839 Speaker 1: maximum efficiency. Can we think about him as a rookie 220 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:37,160 Speaker 1: again when he had two thousand yards from scrimmage? Is 221 00:11:37,160 --> 00:11:38,800 Speaker 1: that the kind of guy that Giants fans are going 222 00:11:38,840 --> 00:11:40,680 Speaker 1: to see? I don't know if you can go back 223 00:11:40,679 --> 00:11:43,240 Speaker 1: to that, because again you're talking about injuries. Injuries changing 224 00:11:43,240 --> 00:11:46,480 Speaker 1: a lot of things, um, you know, and then you 225 00:11:46,520 --> 00:11:51,120 Speaker 1: don't know how good you're gonna be until you push 226 00:11:51,200 --> 00:11:54,560 Speaker 1: those injuries to the point where when fatigues come in, 227 00:11:54,679 --> 00:11:56,720 Speaker 1: what happens. Now, you know those things have to be 228 00:11:56,800 --> 00:11:59,839 Speaker 1: still invaluate. I'm trust me. Those are still questions in 229 00:11:59,880 --> 00:12:02,800 Speaker 1: his mind. Even though last year he did okay and 230 00:12:02,880 --> 00:12:05,760 Speaker 1: he kind of got through most of the season. But 231 00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:08,240 Speaker 1: you know, you come in fresh, you come in able 232 00:12:08,280 --> 00:12:10,040 Speaker 1: to do all the things you want to do. In 233 00:12:10,120 --> 00:12:12,440 Speaker 1: his head, he believes he is that person that was 234 00:12:12,520 --> 00:12:16,200 Speaker 1: once back in rookie camp. But until he get hit 235 00:12:16,559 --> 00:12:18,760 Speaker 1: and he said he plays the game for more than 236 00:12:18,840 --> 00:12:22,560 Speaker 1: one week, that's when you know that's gonna come out 237 00:12:22,600 --> 00:12:25,480 Speaker 1: to whether or not he knows that he is where 238 00:12:25,520 --> 00:12:27,240 Speaker 1: he needs to be at. So it may take two 239 00:12:27,360 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: or three weeks my opinion. Now, what's interesting about this 240 00:12:30,040 --> 00:12:33,280 Speaker 1: so this is that in this offense, they're looking at 241 00:12:33,360 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: him to do a lot of receivers stuff. What impresses 242 00:12:36,800 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: you about his ability and skill set that will allow 243 00:12:39,280 --> 00:12:42,120 Speaker 1: him to become more of a receiver on some plays 244 00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:45,160 Speaker 1: than a running back. Again, it's the scheme. You know, 245 00:12:45,240 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: this scheme dictate how you you know you use a person, 246 00:12:49,080 --> 00:12:52,880 Speaker 1: and him showing the ability to catch the football very 247 00:12:52,920 --> 00:12:57,800 Speaker 1: well and open space gives him that opportunity to experiment 248 00:12:57,840 --> 00:12:59,400 Speaker 1: like we had make it. They did a lot of 249 00:12:59,400 --> 00:13:02,360 Speaker 1: that for us. Um you know, we had shot a rouse. 250 00:13:02,440 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: They would throw to you know myself a Joel, but 251 00:13:05,480 --> 00:13:08,200 Speaker 1: when you saw running roused, that was seven eight yard deeper. 252 00:13:08,559 --> 00:13:10,520 Speaker 1: You want a guy who got real good hands and 253 00:13:10,640 --> 00:13:13,520 Speaker 1: really got good vision, and Barkley seemed to have all 254 00:13:13,559 --> 00:13:15,959 Speaker 1: of that. Don't miss your chance to experience a premier 255 00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:20,000 Speaker 1: hospitality experience watching Giants games world class concerts in two 256 00:13:20,280 --> 00:13:23,720 Speaker 1: as a Giant Sweet partner. Limited full season locations are available, 257 00:13:23,840 --> 00:13:27,000 Speaker 1: or plays a deposit for individual games called n y 258 00:13:28,400 --> 00:13:31,560 Speaker 1: a Giants dot Com slash Suits for more information. It's 259 00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:34,640 Speaker 1: funny you mentioned Mega because Stephen Baker, the touchdown maker, 260 00:13:34,679 --> 00:13:36,319 Speaker 1: I just talked to him the other day and he said, 261 00:13:36,840 --> 00:13:39,360 Speaker 1: in some ways, Barkley reminds him of a blown up Megan. 262 00:13:40,000 --> 00:13:41,920 Speaker 1: When I look at they make it, they make it 263 00:13:42,000 --> 00:13:46,160 Speaker 1: being shorter and not as not as bulky as Barkley. 264 00:13:46,480 --> 00:13:49,440 Speaker 1: So he seemed to be more fluent. Barcley seemed like 265 00:13:49,440 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 1: a guy he caught it in an open space. It's 266 00:13:51,080 --> 00:13:53,520 Speaker 1: gonna be hard to tackle because of his power and 267 00:13:53,600 --> 00:13:56,320 Speaker 1: his speed. Megan was a little more elusive because he 268 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:58,439 Speaker 1: was a little smaller and wait a lot less. So 269 00:13:59,000 --> 00:14:02,520 Speaker 1: that's the differences. This offensive line seems to have a 270 00:14:02,520 --> 00:14:05,760 Speaker 1: lot more grit and talent quite honestly than the offensive 271 00:14:05,800 --> 00:14:08,360 Speaker 1: lines the Giants have had in recent years. When you 272 00:14:08,400 --> 00:14:10,960 Speaker 1: played here with the Giants, that was about as tough 273 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:14,360 Speaker 1: as feisty and offensive line as the league had. How 274 00:14:14,360 --> 00:14:18,040 Speaker 1: important is that mentality and that philosophy of we're gonna 275 00:14:18,080 --> 00:14:21,000 Speaker 1: punch you in the mouth, aside from just being able 276 00:14:21,040 --> 00:14:23,840 Speaker 1: to execute the place? Well, you need some dogs on 277 00:14:23,880 --> 00:14:27,040 Speaker 1: your line. You need somebody who's gonna fight and gonna 278 00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:30,240 Speaker 1: have that grit, like you say, and it starts with 279 00:14:30,280 --> 00:14:32,920 Speaker 1: that old line. Somebody got to take that initiative. Somebody 280 00:14:32,920 --> 00:14:35,400 Speaker 1: got to be that leader that when you line up 281 00:14:35,560 --> 00:14:37,400 Speaker 1: in front of the person in front of you, you 282 00:14:37,440 --> 00:14:39,360 Speaker 1: and the rest of them, guy, y'all got work to do. 283 00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:41,000 Speaker 1: You got a job to do, and you're gonna make 284 00:14:41,040 --> 00:14:44,840 Speaker 1: it happen. So I don't know that they have that yet, 285 00:14:44,880 --> 00:14:47,760 Speaker 1: But like what you're saying, uh, you know, they ain't 286 00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:50,280 Speaker 1: hit nobody yet this practice. You know what I'm saying. 287 00:14:50,600 --> 00:14:53,960 Speaker 1: If practice, we all look good at practice, Like shooting basketball, 288 00:14:54,080 --> 00:14:55,800 Speaker 1: everybody looks good a shooting the ball is and somebody 289 00:14:55,800 --> 00:14:58,280 Speaker 1: to put the hand in your face. So preseason, again, 290 00:14:58,560 --> 00:15:01,360 Speaker 1: it's like practice. It's an upscale uprightness. You're going to 291 00:15:01,440 --> 00:15:04,040 Speaker 1: get a chance to see some of the pieces of 292 00:15:04,120 --> 00:15:07,040 Speaker 1: what you're trying to execute. But I wouldn't get excited 293 00:15:07,080 --> 00:15:11,240 Speaker 1: about preseason game because it's preseason game. They don't count. 294 00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:15,160 Speaker 1: Week one. That's when we're gonna know what we got. 295 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,680 Speaker 1: Week two that's what we're gonna know. So until then, 296 00:15:19,320 --> 00:15:23,920 Speaker 1: I'm a whole my accolades on the whole team until 297 00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:27,360 Speaker 1: I see it two or three games. What is your 298 00:15:27,520 --> 00:15:31,160 Speaker 1: initial impression, again understanding that you won't grade them until 299 00:15:31,160 --> 00:15:34,400 Speaker 1: you get to the regular season of this wide receiving corps. 300 00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:37,600 Speaker 1: I do like what I see and based on what 301 00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:40,080 Speaker 1: it used to look like. Oh they get an eight, 302 00:15:41,080 --> 00:15:46,560 Speaker 1: they get an Just just look an organization? Why back there? 303 00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,480 Speaker 1: You know, the way they move around, the way they 304 00:15:48,640 --> 00:15:51,640 Speaker 1: come in and out of drills, Give me a for that. 305 00:15:52,200 --> 00:15:56,040 Speaker 1: Everything else got alright. One of the things that they 306 00:15:56,040 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 1: have definitely employed here, a lot of pre motion stuff 307 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:02,280 Speaker 1: before the snap, a lot of schematics going on as 308 00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:05,200 Speaker 1: opposed to just lining up and taking it to somebody. 309 00:16:05,440 --> 00:16:08,400 Speaker 1: What are your thoughts in terms of being able to 310 00:16:08,480 --> 00:16:12,400 Speaker 1: handle that offense jelling with so many new guys having 311 00:16:12,400 --> 00:16:14,240 Speaker 1: to be on the same page, it can be difficult, 312 00:16:14,720 --> 00:16:16,360 Speaker 1: well on what they're trying to do. When you have 313 00:16:16,400 --> 00:16:17,800 Speaker 1: a lot of motion and they're trying to get a 314 00:16:17,840 --> 00:16:22,160 Speaker 1: quarterback of your opportunity to understand the coverage and that 315 00:16:22,240 --> 00:16:24,920 Speaker 1: makes the job easy. When he moved people around, if 316 00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,480 Speaker 1: somebody followed, then it could be man and man. If 317 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,720 Speaker 1: he goes and nobody followed, that means zone. It's a 318 00:16:29,840 --> 00:16:32,000 Speaker 1: football simple. I don't know why they're trying to make 319 00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:35,160 Speaker 1: it so complicated. It's you know, X and O don't change. 320 00:16:35,600 --> 00:16:39,400 Speaker 1: But you know it's these geniuses coordinator that trying to 321 00:16:39,440 --> 00:16:42,480 Speaker 1: make the game more than what it is. But again, 322 00:16:42,720 --> 00:16:46,720 Speaker 1: it helps the quarterback, helps everybody understands what's going on, 323 00:16:46,920 --> 00:16:50,440 Speaker 1: and it makes the read route wise and quarterback to 324 00:16:50,560 --> 00:16:55,520 Speaker 1: receiver wise. On page I think Parcels would tell you 325 00:16:55,560 --> 00:16:58,520 Speaker 1: that when you guys were practicing and you had that 326 00:16:58,600 --> 00:17:01,440 Speaker 1: great defense to go against, it helped you guys on offense. 327 00:17:02,080 --> 00:17:05,520 Speaker 1: How much do you think Wink Martindale's complexities on defense 328 00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:11,080 Speaker 1: can help this offense to improve themselves. Again, we got 329 00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:14,960 Speaker 1: some old players from the overgine there and we've got 330 00:17:14,960 --> 00:17:20,040 Speaker 1: new players, we got offensively the same thing. I don't know. 331 00:17:20,720 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: I really don't know. I can't really say because of 332 00:17:25,040 --> 00:17:28,200 Speaker 1: you know, it's still they're still learning, they're still trying 333 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:30,760 Speaker 1: to figure it all out. Remember, these are new coaches 334 00:17:30,800 --> 00:17:33,879 Speaker 1: and a whole new offense, the whole new defensive scheme. 335 00:17:33,920 --> 00:17:36,560 Speaker 1: I don't think they roll over anything from the past. 336 00:17:36,640 --> 00:17:40,280 Speaker 1: Reasone of people who've had here. So so everything is new, 337 00:17:40,320 --> 00:17:42,600 Speaker 1: and when you got new stuff, you're gonna have mistakes. 338 00:17:42,680 --> 00:17:45,600 Speaker 1: You don't have quite a few mistakes, but hopefully those 339 00:17:45,640 --> 00:17:50,080 Speaker 1: mistakes not you know, real critical ones, because if you 340 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:52,840 Speaker 1: look at the Giants last year, there were seven eight 341 00:17:52,840 --> 00:17:55,520 Speaker 1: games that they were leading in the fourth quarter that technically, 342 00:17:55,840 --> 00:17:59,960 Speaker 1: you know, shouldn't want, but they're not. So I'm hope 343 00:18:00,160 --> 00:18:02,120 Speaker 1: that they know how to finish. That's the whole thing. 344 00:18:02,200 --> 00:18:05,480 Speaker 1: Can you finish? You know, to to lead three quarters 345 00:18:05,760 --> 00:18:09,000 Speaker 1: means nothing. You know, can you win the four when 346 00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:12,199 Speaker 1: time needed and when you need for your team to 347 00:18:12,760 --> 00:18:15,399 Speaker 1: secure the clock when they have the ball and not 348 00:18:15,520 --> 00:18:18,440 Speaker 1: give it back to the to the other team's offense. 349 00:18:18,560 --> 00:18:20,800 Speaker 1: Those are the things that I'm looking for that I 350 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:23,480 Speaker 1: need to to see and can't wait to see? Is 351 00:18:24,160 --> 00:18:26,679 Speaker 1: you know, can we do those with tangibles? Let me 352 00:18:26,920 --> 00:18:29,000 Speaker 1: ask you to put your running back hat on again. 353 00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,640 Speaker 1: You go up as another team against a Wick Martindale 354 00:18:32,720 --> 00:18:35,800 Speaker 1: defense where he's got seven guys up on the line, 355 00:18:36,119 --> 00:18:39,760 Speaker 1: he's blitzing safety, he's blitzing corners, he's got guys coming 356 00:18:39,760 --> 00:18:42,440 Speaker 1: from all over in any gap on any given play. 357 00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:44,800 Speaker 1: How much of an issue is that for an offense 358 00:18:44,840 --> 00:18:50,639 Speaker 1: to deal with? It's it is, but it's not because 359 00:18:50,800 --> 00:18:53,760 Speaker 1: you know who's coming and you know where they're coming from. 360 00:18:53,760 --> 00:18:56,359 Speaker 1: I mean, you know you say he's listen. When you 361 00:18:56,400 --> 00:18:59,320 Speaker 1: sit back and watch film, you're gonna watch everything good 362 00:18:59,359 --> 00:19:02,960 Speaker 1: and bad. We had a play where team bliss everybody 363 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:06,280 Speaker 1: and making in what we call an escape route. And 364 00:19:06,320 --> 00:19:08,440 Speaker 1: that was one guy that was supposed to cover Mega 365 00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:10,720 Speaker 1: Maga lineup on the left side and he would escape 366 00:19:10,760 --> 00:19:13,280 Speaker 1: to the right side of the line. All that traffic 367 00:19:13,320 --> 00:19:16,560 Speaker 1: he sneaks through, we got on sideline. So there are 368 00:19:16,600 --> 00:19:18,600 Speaker 1: some things you can do when you when you bring 369 00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:21,440 Speaker 1: the whole house like that. Uh, you just gotta make 370 00:19:21,480 --> 00:19:24,760 Speaker 1: sure that when you do that, your coverage is throwing 371 00:19:24,960 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: in the secondary and and those people that you're putting 372 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,639 Speaker 1: all those people coming in because it's always gonna be 373 00:19:30,680 --> 00:19:33,760 Speaker 1: one man unaccountable, and that's the man for the quarterback. 374 00:19:34,400 --> 00:19:36,359 Speaker 1: And that man is what got to get to the 375 00:19:36,400 --> 00:19:38,800 Speaker 1: quarterback before he gets rid of that ball, because if 376 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,480 Speaker 1: he gets rid of that ball, you're gonna be in trouble. 377 00:19:41,720 --> 00:19:43,600 Speaker 1: I got a feeling on this. No matter how it 378 00:19:43,640 --> 00:19:46,200 Speaker 1: turns out, it's certainly gonna be interesting to watch. It's 379 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:49,080 Speaker 1: gonna be all of that, paul I. I can't wait. 380 00:19:49,640 --> 00:19:52,639 Speaker 1: I'm looking forward to it, and it should be a 381 00:19:52,760 --> 00:19:55,560 Speaker 1: very exciting year for Giant, saying, as always, you can 382 00:19:55,600 --> 00:19:57,880 Speaker 1: catch the Giant Suddle on giants dot Com, the Giant 383 00:19:57,960 --> 00:20:02,200 Speaker 1: Smallbile app, and your favorite podcast platforms everywhere.
