1
00:00:00,160 --> 00:00:02,639
Speaker 1: It's time to get inside the Giants huts.

2
00:00:02,960 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 2: Let's go.

3
00:00:05,400 --> 00:00:08,080
Speaker 3: It up my Giants. Below give me John part of

4
00:00:08,119 --> 00:00:10,280
Speaker 3: the Giants Podcast network's role.

5
00:00:10,480 --> 00:00:13,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to the Giants Huddle Podcast, brought to you by Citizens,

6
00:00:13,480 --> 00:00:15,680
Speaker 1: the official bank of the New York Giants. It's a

7
00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:19,120
Speaker 1: Week fourteen rapid reaction. My name is madelen Burg. Alongside

8
00:00:19,120 --> 00:00:22,280
Speaker 1: the Super Bowl champion Amani Tumor, the Giants back at

9
00:00:22,280 --> 00:00:25,880
Speaker 1: MetLife Stadium for Week fourteen, hosting the New Orleans Saints.

10
00:00:26,320 --> 00:00:28,760
Speaker 1: The Saints coming away with the win. Fourteen eleven is

11
00:00:28,800 --> 00:00:31,440
Speaker 1: a final score, and this one ended in a way

12
00:00:31,480 --> 00:00:34,800
Speaker 1: that was eventful. Amani Graham Gano lines up for a

13
00:00:34,840 --> 00:00:37,720
Speaker 1: thirty five yard field goal attempt to potentially tie the

14
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:40,919
Speaker 1: game at fourteen and force overtime, but it's blocked by

15
00:00:40,960 --> 00:00:44,159
Speaker 1: Brian Brazie on a play very similar to the way

16
00:00:44,200 --> 00:00:47,760
Speaker 1: the Giants blocked the field goal in Seattle earlier this season,

17
00:00:48,760 --> 00:00:51,360
Speaker 1: and it wouldn't happen. The Giants would fall. Fourteen eleven

18
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:53,680
Speaker 1: was a final score. A tough way to lose this one.

19
00:00:53,880 --> 00:00:55,680
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's a tough way to lose it, especially because

20
00:00:55,680 --> 00:00:58,320
Speaker 2: there's so many young guys out there trying their hardest.

21
00:00:58,760 --> 00:01:00,800
Speaker 2: They don't care about the record, they don't care about

22
00:01:00,960 --> 00:01:01,960
Speaker 2: you know what's going on.

23
00:01:02,080 --> 00:01:03,200
Speaker 3: This is their opportunity.

24
00:01:03,200 --> 00:01:05,679
Speaker 2: You saw some people out there today that were playing

25
00:01:05,720 --> 00:01:08,039
Speaker 2: there a super Bowl. They were they've been practicing for

26
00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:11,520
Speaker 2: a year or two. Like Trey Banks, who is who

27
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 2: got the intercept, Trey sorry, Trey Hawkins who had the

28
00:01:15,280 --> 00:01:21,160
Speaker 2: interception today and the six pass defense is I think

29
00:01:21,400 --> 00:01:23,960
Speaker 2: he could care less. He wants to get out there

30
00:01:23,959 --> 00:01:26,520
Speaker 2: and prove that he deserves to be in the NFL.

31
00:01:26,840 --> 00:01:29,280
Speaker 2: And that's exactly what he did today with his play.

32
00:01:29,600 --> 00:01:31,480
Speaker 2: I think we're going to start to see, you know,

33
00:01:32,000 --> 00:01:34,959
Speaker 2: some of the some of the Jochian's picks that are

34
00:01:35,720 --> 00:01:38,840
Speaker 2: not playing but are developing. And I think you're going

35
00:01:38,880 --> 00:01:40,360
Speaker 2: to see a lot of players if they come out

36
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,440
Speaker 2: with the energy that they have right now, You're going

37
00:01:42,520 --> 00:01:45,959
Speaker 2: to start to see some of the fruit from these drafts,

38
00:01:46,040 --> 00:01:49,160
Speaker 2: the last two drafts that are going to be a

39
00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:53,920
Speaker 2: blossoming and going to be showing the depth of this team,

40
00:01:54,200 --> 00:01:57,720
Speaker 2: uh for for next year, in years in years to come.

41
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:01,120
Speaker 1: Well, in game reps are so important in developing young players,

42
00:02:01,200 --> 00:02:03,160
Speaker 1: right and you know this is a very young team

43
00:02:03,640 --> 00:02:05,720
Speaker 1: and a team right now that is banged up. At

44
00:02:05,760 --> 00:02:08,000
Speaker 1: the beginning of the season, they had five captains. There's

45
00:02:08,040 --> 00:02:11,280
Speaker 1: just one healthy player of those five captains, Casey Krider.

46
00:02:11,600 --> 00:02:14,000
Speaker 1: The rest are either injured or no longer on the roster.

47
00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:17,040
Speaker 1: And when you look at the way that the you know,

48
00:02:17,080 --> 00:02:19,639
Speaker 1: not just the captains, but the significant players that have

49
00:02:19,760 --> 00:02:23,679
Speaker 1: fallen due to injury or whatnot throughout the season, it's

50
00:02:23,680 --> 00:02:27,079
Speaker 1: given opportunity for these younger guys. And I mean, you know, Amani,

51
00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:29,800
Speaker 1: you as the Giants' all time leading receiver, even you

52
00:02:29,919 --> 00:02:32,480
Speaker 1: took a couple years to get into a flow and

53
00:02:32,520 --> 00:02:35,079
Speaker 1: to build into that, right. You know, I think sometimes

54
00:02:35,480 --> 00:02:38,720
Speaker 1: in today's society, we expect this instant gratification. Okay, draft

55
00:02:38,720 --> 00:02:41,480
Speaker 1: good player out of college, immediately better be a pro bowler.

56
00:02:41,720 --> 00:02:43,720
Speaker 1: But sometimes it takes time to develop that. And as

57
00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,359
Speaker 1: you mentioned with Trey Hawkins, the second year player getting

58
00:02:46,360 --> 00:02:49,520
Speaker 1: his first career interception today, you know, you see that

59
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:51,160
Speaker 1: come along later in their in their time.

60
00:02:51,639 --> 00:02:51,839
Speaker 3: Yeah.

61
00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,720
Speaker 2: I mean, there's there's a lot of guys that I

62
00:02:53,760 --> 00:02:56,200
Speaker 2: feel are going to work over these next four weeks

63
00:02:56,480 --> 00:03:00,360
Speaker 2: are going to emerge. They're gonna they've been practicing, said,

64
00:03:00,400 --> 00:03:01,799
Speaker 2: they've been trying to.

65
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:02,240
Speaker 3: Get in there.

66
00:03:02,240 --> 00:03:05,160
Speaker 2: They've been waiting and waiting in the wings, and now

67
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:07,760
Speaker 2: they're going to get their opportunity. And I always tell

68
00:03:07,760 --> 00:03:09,440
Speaker 2: people to be careful what you ask for, you might

69
00:03:09,440 --> 00:03:12,880
Speaker 2: get it, because you know they're going to be out

70
00:03:12,880 --> 00:03:15,760
Speaker 2: there and they're going to be tested to prove all

71
00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,160
Speaker 2: the things that they've been talking to their buddies about,

72
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:20,919
Speaker 2: and their parents about, and all their agents about. I

73
00:03:20,919 --> 00:03:23,640
Speaker 2: should be out there playing. Okay, now you're out there. Now,

74
00:03:23,720 --> 00:03:25,160
Speaker 2: let's see what you can do. And I think it's

75
00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:27,120
Speaker 2: going to have a different type of energy like today,

76
00:03:27,360 --> 00:03:29,040
Speaker 2: it was a different type of energy than it was

77
00:03:29,080 --> 00:03:31,320
Speaker 2: over the last couple of weeks because you have young

78
00:03:31,400 --> 00:03:34,119
Speaker 2: hungry players out there, you know, trying to prove themselves.

79
00:03:34,320 --> 00:03:35,320
Speaker 3: Howd up get in here?

80
00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:37,800
Speaker 2: If you're lined up here, you got to go over

81
00:03:37,840 --> 00:03:39,600
Speaker 2: the middle with at the score great?

82
00:03:40,120 --> 00:03:42,840
Speaker 3: How do we make that happen? I don't know, but

83
00:03:43,200 --> 00:03:44,040
Speaker 3: citizen does.

84
00:03:44,560 --> 00:03:48,080
Speaker 1: It makes sense of your money with citizens Official Bank

85
00:03:48,200 --> 00:03:51,160
Speaker 1: of ELI manning young hungry players. And let's talk about

86
00:03:51,160 --> 00:03:52,840
Speaker 1: the defensive side of the ball. I mean we mentioned

87
00:03:52,880 --> 00:03:56,080
Speaker 1: Trey Hawkins. Not only does he get his first career interception,

88
00:03:56,160 --> 00:03:58,880
Speaker 1: but it's the first interception for the Giants defense since

89
00:03:58,960 --> 00:04:03,240
Speaker 1: Week one when rookie Darius Moasau got a pick. It's

90
00:04:03,280 --> 00:04:05,800
Speaker 1: the longest streak. It's Week fourteen right now. That's quite

91
00:04:05,800 --> 00:04:08,400
Speaker 1: a long streak to have not a single takeaway in

92
00:04:08,400 --> 00:04:10,800
Speaker 1: that regard than Brian Burns also gets a sack on

93
00:04:10,840 --> 00:04:13,640
Speaker 1: Derek Carr. Carr as a quarterback who that was just

94
00:04:13,880 --> 00:04:16,520
Speaker 1: eighth time this season he's been sacked. He's averaging fewer

95
00:04:16,560 --> 00:04:19,400
Speaker 1: than one sack per game, so getting a sack on

96
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:22,040
Speaker 1: Car as an accomplished litment in itself. But also this

97
00:04:22,080 --> 00:04:23,880
Speaker 1: is a Giants defense that at one point led the

98
00:04:23,920 --> 00:04:26,960
Speaker 1: league in sacks, hadn't had one since Week ten, so

99
00:04:27,120 --> 00:04:30,840
Speaker 1: kind of ending that drought as well for Burns. But additionally,

100
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,680
Speaker 1: the run defense, you know, the way that they were

101
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:35,680
Speaker 1: able to stifle Alvin Kamara and this run game from

102
00:04:35,720 --> 00:04:39,360
Speaker 1: New Orleans. Without Dexter Lawrence, without Bobby Ocaakay, you've got

103
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:42,640
Speaker 1: Elijah Chapman kind of playing nose tackle. And with respect

104
00:04:42,640 --> 00:04:44,760
Speaker 1: to Elijah Chapman, he's maybe a third of the size

105
00:04:44,800 --> 00:04:48,520
Speaker 1: of Dexter Lawrence and he was playing big in that position.

106
00:04:48,640 --> 00:04:50,520
Speaker 1: So to his credit and to the credit of a

107
00:04:50,520 --> 00:04:52,160
Speaker 1: lot of these young guys stepping up and trying to

108
00:04:52,160 --> 00:04:54,400
Speaker 1: make the most of their opportunity, not just with the Giants,

109
00:04:54,440 --> 00:04:56,880
Speaker 1: but in the National Football League. It did kind of

110
00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,520
Speaker 1: provide a different spark and put the Giants in a

111
00:04:59,520 --> 00:05:01,799
Speaker 1: position where they had a chance in this one.

112
00:05:02,040 --> 00:05:04,880
Speaker 2: Yeah, Garcia, Chapman, and Riley all played very well today.

113
00:05:04,920 --> 00:05:06,560
Speaker 3: Burns and Thibodeau.

114
00:05:06,600 --> 00:05:09,760
Speaker 2: Also this defensive front, which is, like you said, it's

115
00:05:09,760 --> 00:05:13,760
Speaker 2: a little decimated, they came to perform and they only

116
00:05:13,760 --> 00:05:19,240
Speaker 2: gave up. Only gave up ninety two yards rushing from

117
00:05:19,320 --> 00:05:23,120
Speaker 2: the whole offense, gave up for forty four yards on

118
00:05:23,160 --> 00:05:26,560
Speaker 2: seventeen carries to Alvin Kamara. You know, I think there's

119
00:05:26,600 --> 00:05:29,880
Speaker 2: only eight games this year. He hasn't had one hundred

120
00:05:29,960 --> 00:05:33,480
Speaker 2: yards all purpose. Today he came woefully short with only

121
00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:38,760
Speaker 2: thirty five yards receiving as well, but average having one

122
00:05:38,760 --> 00:05:41,080
Speaker 2: of the best backs, I think the best back in

123
00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:44,920
Speaker 2: the league in Alvin Kamara, to holding him over under

124
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:48,479
Speaker 2: two point six yards per carry, to me, that's a

125
00:05:48,520 --> 00:05:52,000
Speaker 2: win for this defense and it shows that maybe they

126
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:54,159
Speaker 2: need to dig a little deeper into the into the

127
00:05:54,200 --> 00:05:56,080
Speaker 2: lineup to see what they actually got in a lot

128
00:05:56,120 --> 00:05:57,280
Speaker 2: of these young players.

129
00:05:57,000 --> 00:06:00,599
Speaker 1: Right, because oftentimes sometimes nothing changes if nothing changes, and

130
00:06:00,720 --> 00:06:03,560
Speaker 1: just the semblance of okay, new personnel, new spark a

131
00:06:03,600 --> 00:06:06,960
Speaker 1: lot of eager young players trying to prove something. Did

132
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:09,640
Speaker 1: prove something. You know, there were a couple of moments

133
00:06:09,680 --> 00:06:11,760
Speaker 1: though throughout this game that the Giants would want back

134
00:06:11,839 --> 00:06:15,920
Speaker 1: quite a few. Penalties are a topic of conversation week

135
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:18,280
Speaker 1: in and week out, and in this situation, there's ten

136
00:06:18,320 --> 00:06:22,360
Speaker 1: points that were negated due to penalties. Amir Smith Marsette

137
00:06:22,480 --> 00:06:25,280
Speaker 1: takes a punt return fifty six yards for a touchdown.

138
00:06:25,560 --> 00:06:27,400
Speaker 1: They're celebrating in the end zone. Then you see the

139
00:06:27,480 --> 00:06:29,919
Speaker 1: laundry on the field. It's called back because of a

140
00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:33,839
Speaker 1: holding call on Strowman. Graham Gano kicks a field goal

141
00:06:33,839 --> 00:06:36,320
Speaker 1: to make it a one possession game. It's called back

142
00:06:36,400 --> 00:06:40,239
Speaker 1: because of a late penalty on Kubas. And this type

143
00:06:40,320 --> 00:06:43,520
Speaker 1: of penalty that not only is backing up the team,

144
00:06:43,560 --> 00:06:47,880
Speaker 1: but also negating points and putting other success. This is

145
00:06:47,920 --> 00:06:51,760
Speaker 1: a non necessary issue that is something that you know, yes,

146
00:06:51,839 --> 00:06:54,000
Speaker 1: you have with a young team. You have when you

147
00:06:54,080 --> 00:06:56,600
Speaker 1: know you've got several guys who are being called up

148
00:06:56,600 --> 00:06:58,560
Speaker 1: on the practice squad or having their first minutes of

149
00:06:58,600 --> 00:07:03,600
Speaker 1: the season, but finding consistent discipline to avoid these penalties

150
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:05,920
Speaker 1: and avoid shooting yourself in the foot, because again, that's

151
00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,920
Speaker 1: ten points that the Giants could have used in this one.

152
00:07:08,120 --> 00:07:09,000
Speaker 3: Yeh, it's ten points.

153
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,280
Speaker 2: They had twelve penalties for one hundred and twelve yards.

154
00:07:12,320 --> 00:07:15,880
Speaker 2: That is like giving up the length of the field

155
00:07:16,160 --> 00:07:19,080
Speaker 2: and then you're starting on eighty nine, so eighty eight,

156
00:07:19,120 --> 00:07:23,840
Speaker 2: so it's this is not winning football. I mean last

157
00:07:23,840 --> 00:07:29,800
Speaker 2: week they had ninety eight yards in penalties. Just taking

158
00:07:29,800 --> 00:07:32,840
Speaker 2: them down to half would have changed the entire focus

159
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:35,520
Speaker 2: of the game. Just give up fifty yards like the Saints.

160
00:07:35,560 --> 00:07:37,720
Speaker 2: On the other hand, they are on the road. They

161
00:07:37,760 --> 00:07:40,720
Speaker 2: only had six penalties for forty yards. That's a dramatic

162
00:07:40,800 --> 00:07:44,200
Speaker 2: difference in field position. You're giving up to a team

163
00:07:44,240 --> 00:07:48,400
Speaker 2: that's struggling just like you. But obviously they played it

164
00:07:48,400 --> 00:07:50,040
Speaker 2: a little bit more close to the ves and found

165
00:07:50,040 --> 00:07:52,400
Speaker 2: a way to pull it out there in the end, luckily,

166
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:56,800
Speaker 2: because they made a play on special teams that you know,

167
00:07:56,920 --> 00:07:58,760
Speaker 2: by blocking that field goal at the end of the game.

168
00:07:59,120 --> 00:08:01,080
Speaker 3: I've seen a lot of black field goals this year.

169
00:08:01,320 --> 00:08:02,480
Speaker 3: It's very very strange.

170
00:08:02,480 --> 00:08:04,920
Speaker 2: I don't know what's going on, but you know they're

171
00:08:05,040 --> 00:08:09,400
Speaker 2: blocking field goals is not something that ordinarily happens as often,

172
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:11,760
Speaker 2: as I say, with the frequency as I see this year.

173
00:08:11,960 --> 00:08:13,560
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean, it seems like there are so many

174
00:08:13,600 --> 00:08:16,040
Speaker 1: trends in the NFL, right, whether it's block field goals,

175
00:08:16,040 --> 00:08:19,200
Speaker 1: miss field goals, kickers struggling in general this season. Something's

176
00:08:19,240 --> 00:08:21,520
Speaker 1: in the water right there, and it's unfortunate that that's

177
00:08:21,520 --> 00:08:23,400
Speaker 1: how this one had to end, especially because the Giants

178
00:08:23,400 --> 00:08:25,760
Speaker 1: were kind of mounting a comeback, right they were down

179
00:08:26,200 --> 00:08:29,400
Speaker 1: fourteen to three, and then you know, find a way

180
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,120
Speaker 1: get in the end zone with the Tyrone Tracy touchdown.

181
00:08:32,480 --> 00:08:35,160
Speaker 1: They make it a ballgame. It's fourteen eleven, they go

182
00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:38,160
Speaker 1: for two, they convert the two point conversion. Malik Neighbors

183
00:08:38,160 --> 00:08:41,080
Speaker 1: is in and you know, two point conversions are something

184
00:08:41,080 --> 00:08:43,240
Speaker 1: we've seen the Giants struggling with so far this year too.

185
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:45,760
Speaker 1: So the momentum is on their side. It seems like

186
00:08:45,840 --> 00:08:47,800
Speaker 1: though we've seen this. We saw this last week as

187
00:08:47,800 --> 00:08:51,720
Speaker 1: well against Dallas on Thanksgiving. The offense finds its rhythm

188
00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:54,040
Speaker 1: and finds its spark late in the game and then

189
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,320
Speaker 1: just seems to run out of time as they're finally

190
00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,000
Speaker 1: starting to hit a rhythm. What do you see or

191
00:08:59,640 --> 00:09:01,280
Speaker 1: is that a valid explanation there.

192
00:09:01,640 --> 00:09:03,360
Speaker 3: I have no idea why that happens that.

193
00:09:03,520 --> 00:09:06,640
Speaker 2: Maybe one of the things is when you're playing in

194
00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:08,480
Speaker 2: the two minute offense, it's much or more of a

195
00:09:08,520 --> 00:09:12,079
Speaker 2: free flowing It's almost like basketball on turf.

196
00:09:12,120 --> 00:09:13,600
Speaker 3: You know, everybody knows you're going to throw.

197
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:18,800
Speaker 2: Now, it's all about getting open, spacing, timing, and hitting

198
00:09:18,880 --> 00:09:23,920
Speaker 2: your your It's very simple to hit your go through

199
00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:26,880
Speaker 2: your reads. And for a quarterback it really cleans up

200
00:09:26,880 --> 00:09:29,080
Speaker 2: a lot of the things because a lot of the

201
00:09:29,120 --> 00:09:32,080
Speaker 2: defense because you line up in a certain formation more

202
00:09:32,200 --> 00:09:34,640
Speaker 2: probably more wide out, so you're spread out in terms

203
00:09:34,679 --> 00:09:38,000
Speaker 2: of more red whiteouts on the field, and you're not

204
00:09:38,120 --> 00:09:41,480
Speaker 2: able to do some of the disguises because there's just

205
00:09:41,559 --> 00:09:45,559
Speaker 2: so many plays, so many receivers out there, and the

206
00:09:45,640 --> 00:09:48,880
Speaker 2: quick succession of plays prevents a lot of these dummy

207
00:09:48,920 --> 00:09:51,560
Speaker 2: looks where they try to have a shell look and

208
00:09:51,600 --> 00:09:54,040
Speaker 2: then they bring a safety down or rock a safety back,

209
00:09:54,120 --> 00:09:56,560
Speaker 2: or drop a defensive lineman. You just can't do all

210
00:09:56,600 --> 00:10:00,000
Speaker 2: that stuff when you're so close in secession between plays.

211
00:10:00,280 --> 00:10:01,920
Speaker 3: If you want to know how to manage two minutes

212
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:03,680
Speaker 3: of crunch time football, I'm your Matt.

213
00:10:03,760 --> 00:10:06,040
Speaker 2: But if you're wondering about a long term financial plan,

214
00:10:06,400 --> 00:10:07,640
Speaker 2: you should talk to citizens.

215
00:10:07,760 --> 00:10:09,760
Speaker 3: Hey, I can also talk long care. I'd like to

216
00:10:09,840 --> 00:10:12,560
Speaker 3: learn about Amolli routine. Yes, I knew I could help.

217
00:10:13,240 --> 00:10:15,200
Speaker 3: Makes sense of your money with citizens.

218
00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:17,480
Speaker 1: Well, it makes sense too, a two minute offense. You

219
00:10:17,559 --> 00:10:19,840
Speaker 1: comparing it to like basketball on turf. It makes sense

220
00:10:19,840 --> 00:10:22,280
Speaker 1: why Drew Lock is so good in that scenario. Drew

221
00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:24,480
Speaker 1: Lock is a quarterback who wears a shooting sleeve on

222
00:10:24,559 --> 00:10:27,679
Speaker 1: his throwing arm. He's a hooper, he loves basketball, he

223
00:10:27,720 --> 00:10:30,600
Speaker 1: plays basketball, he thinks in that mindset. So of course

224
00:10:30,640 --> 00:10:32,680
Speaker 1: we see him come alive in a scenario that is

225
00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:34,920
Speaker 1: a kin to that sport as well, because Drew Lock

226
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:37,600
Speaker 1: does really kind of find another level, unlock another level

227
00:10:37,600 --> 00:10:39,280
Speaker 1: in the two minute office we've seen in the last

228
00:10:39,280 --> 00:10:44,040
Speaker 1: couple of weeks. You know, I'm just saying, you gave

229
00:10:44,080 --> 00:10:45,960
Speaker 1: me the oop and I gave the jam right there.

230
00:10:46,080 --> 00:10:48,439
Speaker 1: We loved it. But you know, of course it's a

231
00:10:48,480 --> 00:10:50,520
Speaker 1: tough loss. Of the Giants fall into two and eleven,

232
00:10:51,240 --> 00:10:53,800
Speaker 1: and they've got another tough one coming next week because

233
00:10:53,800 --> 00:10:56,600
Speaker 1: they're back here at MetLife Stadium with the Baltimore Ravens

234
00:10:56,640 --> 00:10:59,599
Speaker 1: coming to town. The Ravens. Week thirteen, they lost to

235
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,120
Speaker 1: the e They're on a buy in week fourteen, but

236
00:11:02,200 --> 00:11:05,680
Speaker 1: after the Eagles loss, Lamar Jackson's mother said to him, Son,

237
00:11:05,760 --> 00:11:07,480
Speaker 1: I want to see you run the ball more. And

238
00:11:07,600 --> 00:11:09,439
Speaker 1: when your mom is in your ear telling you you

239
00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:11,120
Speaker 1: need to run the ball more, and then you've got

240
00:11:11,160 --> 00:11:13,800
Speaker 1: a whole bye week to think about it. He's going

241
00:11:13,840 --> 00:11:17,000
Speaker 1: to be coming into MetLife Stadium already having a season

242
00:11:17,120 --> 00:11:20,760
Speaker 1: that's looking like a third MVP campaign. He's going to

243
00:11:20,760 --> 00:11:23,720
Speaker 1: be looking to run and that combined with Derrick Henry

244
00:11:23,760 --> 00:11:25,679
Speaker 1: and his stiff arms, this is going to be a

245
00:11:25,720 --> 00:11:28,800
Speaker 1: challenge for the Giants run defense, which we saw efforting

246
00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,520
Speaker 1: pretty strong today against Alvin Kamara. But again, Lamar Jackson

247
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:34,880
Speaker 1: and Derrick Henry is a different level of a challenge.

248
00:11:35,000 --> 00:11:37,480
Speaker 2: Oh, it's a different level of challenge absolutely, because the

249
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,840
Speaker 2: physicality and the big playability of Derrick Henry and Lamar Jackson,

250
00:11:42,880 --> 00:11:47,679
Speaker 2: and then they have the different receivers that really you know,

251
00:11:48,160 --> 00:11:51,239
Speaker 2: Zay Flowers, I think he's very dynamic and explosive.

252
00:11:51,640 --> 00:11:53,520
Speaker 3: They just have a lot of really solid players and.

253
00:11:53,480 --> 00:11:56,559
Speaker 2: Then you have the tight end Mark Andrews is just

254
00:11:56,880 --> 00:11:59,880
Speaker 2: I mean, there's a lot to defend in this team.

255
00:12:00,000 --> 00:12:03,200
Speaker 2: This team is very complete in terms of spread evenly

256
00:12:03,520 --> 00:12:08,680
Speaker 2: talent evenly throughout the whole position groups, of the special

257
00:12:09,240 --> 00:12:12,559
Speaker 2: of the skill players, with the with the Ravens, and

258
00:12:12,600 --> 00:12:14,079
Speaker 2: their offensive line isn't bad as well.

259
00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:16,640
Speaker 3: So and then when you look in their defense, they

260
00:12:16,679 --> 00:12:17,000
Speaker 3: do have a.

261
00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,360
Speaker 2: Weakness in their past defense, but as of late they've

262
00:12:19,360 --> 00:12:21,199
Speaker 2: been coming on and playing a little bit better. But

263
00:12:21,720 --> 00:12:24,199
Speaker 2: it's just one of those situations where you're gonna have

264
00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:26,920
Speaker 2: to raise your level of competition because they are one

265
00:12:26,960 --> 00:12:28,199
Speaker 2: of the top teams in the AFC.

266
00:12:28,760 --> 00:12:29,840
Speaker 3: You know they they are.

267
00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,680
Speaker 2: They can beat anybody, and they can get beat by anybody,

268
00:12:32,920 --> 00:12:35,160
Speaker 2: you know, They Losese, Cleveland Browns, and then they blow

269
00:12:35,240 --> 00:12:40,959
Speaker 2: out the Rams, I mean the Chargers. So this is

270
00:12:41,040 --> 00:12:45,520
Speaker 2: this team. They're very dangerous because you not don't always

271
00:12:45,559 --> 00:12:47,719
Speaker 2: know what you're gonna get. And I feel like the

272
00:12:47,840 --> 00:12:51,680
Speaker 2: Giants have an opportunity to compete and see these young

273
00:12:51,720 --> 00:12:54,839
Speaker 2: players playing against the NFL's best, and you're going to

274
00:12:54,920 --> 00:12:56,760
Speaker 2: really see what you got and a lot of these

275
00:12:56,800 --> 00:12:58,840
Speaker 2: young guys and we're going to see, you know, all

276
00:12:58,880 --> 00:13:02,520
Speaker 2: these daybo draft picks and all this stuff. I want

277
00:13:02,559 --> 00:13:04,120
Speaker 2: them to go out there and shine and show that

278
00:13:05,000 --> 00:13:07,200
Speaker 2: you know that we're going in the gabo and shan

279
00:13:07,559 --> 00:13:10,800
Speaker 2: that they're going in the right direction, and uh, you know,

280
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:13,360
Speaker 2: get some stability around here and get some you know,

281
00:13:13,480 --> 00:13:16,520
Speaker 2: get this program turned around absolutely.

282
00:13:16,040 --> 00:13:17,880
Speaker 1: And it starts one game at a time, one week

283
00:13:17,920 --> 00:13:20,319
Speaker 1: at a time. We're back next week as the Giants

284
00:13:20,360 --> 00:13:22,599
Speaker 1: hosts the Ravens week fifteen. But that's a wrap for

285
00:13:22,679 --> 00:13:27,000
Speaker 1: Week fourteen. Rapid Reaction on The Giants Huddle podcast brought

286
