We don't 18 00:00:46,680 --> 00:00:48,560 Speaker 1: need to go into that again. Obviously, a lot of 19 00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:52,080 Speaker 1: news coming up this week. JC will have some word 20 00:00:52,159 --> 00:00:54,560 Speaker 1: from Brian Dable here. He's going to address the media 21 00:00:54,760 --> 00:00:56,680 Speaker 1: in a in a couple of minutes. This is one 22 00:00:56,680 --> 00:00:58,560 Speaker 1: of those kind of you know, to the side with 23 00:00:58,600 --> 00:01:00,840 Speaker 1: the beat reporter things while keep an eye on the 24 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:03,280 Speaker 1: Twitter feeds CF he has any o your injury news, 25 00:01:03,880 --> 00:01:05,480 Speaker 1: but obviously, the one we're all keeping an eye on 26 00:01:05,560 --> 00:01:08,240 Speaker 1: is Daniel Jones. There was an NFL Network report earlier 27 00:01:08,280 --> 00:01:12,200 Speaker 1: today coming off of their Insiders program with Garafolo, Rappaport 28 00:01:12,280 --> 00:01:15,600 Speaker 1: and Pella Sero that Daniel is heading in the wrong direction. 29 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:17,360 Speaker 1: That doesn't mean he's not gonna play Sunday, but I 30 00:01:17,360 --> 00:01:20,639 Speaker 1: think preparations are being you know, Giant fan should mentally 31 00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,319 Speaker 1: prepare for the fact that it could very well be 32 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:24,559 Speaker 1: Tyrod Taylor on money on Sunday night if they haven't 33 00:01:24,560 --> 00:01:27,520 Speaker 1: already done that. If you do have to go Tyrod 34 00:01:27,640 --> 00:01:30,319 Speaker 1: instead of Daniel, how do you think that impacts what 35 00:01:30,360 --> 00:01:31,759 Speaker 1: the Giants might do offensively? 36 00:01:31,959 --> 00:01:34,160 Speaker 2: Nothing, No, I don't. I don't think so. Tyrod Taylor 37 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: is very capable of running this offense that you know, 38 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:39,720 Speaker 2: these guys been doing. He's been doing since longer than 39 00:01:39,760 --> 00:01:43,360 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones been doing because you know the I guess 40 00:01:43,400 --> 00:01:47,080 Speaker 2: the transfer over from Buffalo, yep with with day Ball, 41 00:01:47,560 --> 00:01:50,480 Speaker 2: and he's very similar in the things that he can do. 42 00:01:50,560 --> 00:01:53,120 Speaker 2: You know, he's a very active quarterback in the pocket. 43 00:01:53,160 --> 00:01:55,360 Speaker 2: He can move around the pocket, he create outside the pocket, 44 00:01:55,600 --> 00:01:57,680 Speaker 2: he can throw on the run, he can run the football, 45 00:01:58,720 --> 00:02:01,240 Speaker 2: you know, and and he's very capable. He's won games 46 00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:03,240 Speaker 2: in this league. He started in this league. And I 47 00:02:03,320 --> 00:02:05,640 Speaker 2: talked about this in one of the shows that it's 48 00:02:05,680 --> 00:02:09,840 Speaker 2: good to have a very experienced, very talented and as 49 00:02:09,880 --> 00:02:13,280 Speaker 2: a backup quarterback as an insurance policy as Tyrod Taylor, 50 00:02:13,639 --> 00:02:16,520 Speaker 2: and you know, now it's gonna be You're gonna see him. 51 00:02:16,560 --> 00:02:20,239 Speaker 2: But look, I don't think it matters who's playing quarterback 52 00:02:20,680 --> 00:02:23,560 Speaker 2: because the offensive line is the major issue that the 53 00:02:23,560 --> 00:02:26,760 Speaker 2: Giants seem to kind of, you know, weak in and 54 00:02:26,800 --> 00:02:31,120 Speaker 2: week out. And it's not only just the play it's 55 00:02:30,919 --> 00:02:35,600 Speaker 2: the injuries. Attrition has decimated this offensive line, you know. 56 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:38,320 Speaker 2: And even when Tyrod came in last week, he was 57 00:02:38,400 --> 00:02:40,639 Speaker 2: running for his life when he came in the game. 58 00:02:40,680 --> 00:02:40,880 Speaker 1: You know. 59 00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:43,240 Speaker 2: So there's a lot of things that I know, we 60 00:02:43,320 --> 00:02:46,040 Speaker 2: need to talk about and we're gonna address, and the Giants, 61 00:02:46,400 --> 00:02:48,560 Speaker 2: the Giants need to talk about and they're going to address. 62 00:02:48,600 --> 00:02:50,960 Speaker 2: But it starts with the offensive line, and you know, 63 00:02:51,000 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 2: I hope they can put up a better showing than 64 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,840 Speaker 2: they have, especially in the last two weeks where they've 65 00:02:55,840 --> 00:02:57,120 Speaker 2: given up eighteen sacks. 66 00:02:58,320 --> 00:03:01,840 Speaker 1: Yeah, and that's a lot, and it's just the stat 67 00:03:01,880 --> 00:03:07,079 Speaker 1: I've been given Pro football focus tracks pressure is allowed 68 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:11,240 Speaker 1: by just the offensive line, so that takes out pressure 69 00:03:11,320 --> 00:03:14,639 Speaker 1: is allowed by tight ends, running back protection, even pressures 70 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:17,680 Speaker 1: created by quarterbacks by rolling into defensive players. Right, So 71 00:03:17,720 --> 00:03:20,720 Speaker 1: this is just pressure is allowed by offensive lines. Last year, 72 00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:25,160 Speaker 1: the team that led the offensive line rather that led 73 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,200 Speaker 1: the league in number of pressures allow, allowed two hundred 74 00:03:28,200 --> 00:03:30,080 Speaker 1: and twelve pressures over the course of the year. Okay, 75 00:03:30,440 --> 00:03:33,760 Speaker 1: the lot. I think a guess at how many the 76 00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:36,720 Speaker 1: Giants offensive line is on pace to allow this year. 77 00:03:38,040 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 2: On pace on pace? 78 00:03:39,240 --> 00:03:42,400 Speaker 1: Yes, two, three, five? 79 00:03:45,400 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 2: What's the current number right now? 80 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,800 Speaker 1: Fifty more than what they allowed all of last year? 81 00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:51,160 Speaker 2: Are the worst the worst team? 82 00:03:51,280 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: Yes? 83 00:03:51,680 --> 00:03:52,080 Speaker 2: The worst? 84 00:03:52,400 --> 00:03:55,760 Speaker 1: Yes? Did the worst team allowed last year? And I 85 00:03:55,880 --> 00:03:58,080 Speaker 1: just think it's important to stress that this is this 86 00:03:58,200 --> 00:04:01,960 Speaker 1: is not a usual bed protection situation. This is a 87 00:04:02,200 --> 00:04:07,080 Speaker 1: uniquely bad protection situation. I could try to find that 88 00:04:07,160 --> 00:04:07,600 Speaker 1: number for you. 89 00:04:07,600 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 2: I don't know. And man, look, I'm very worried because 90 00:04:10,680 --> 00:04:13,400 Speaker 2: you know, I watched a guy in Epanessa last week 91 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:18,000 Speaker 2: up in London have a career day three and very destructive, 92 00:04:18,200 --> 00:04:20,520 Speaker 2: and like I was trying to figure out who he was, 93 00:04:20,560 --> 00:04:23,560 Speaker 2: because we understand who whoso is We understand who von 94 00:04:23,640 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 2: Miller is and. 95 00:04:24,560 --> 00:04:25,600 Speaker 1: We'll see if Russeau plays. 96 00:04:25,680 --> 00:04:28,880 Speaker 2: Yes, he's on the right, he's on the injury report, 97 00:04:30,240 --> 00:04:33,320 Speaker 2: and that that very much concerns me, you know, especially 98 00:04:33,560 --> 00:04:36,800 Speaker 2: how the Bills like to play defense. And when you 99 00:04:36,839 --> 00:04:39,719 Speaker 2: watch the Miami game. You know, last week the Giants 100 00:04:39,720 --> 00:04:44,960 Speaker 2: played Miami and the Bills. They people know what the 101 00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,080 Speaker 2: Bills are. You know, they're more very conservative on defense. 102 00:04:48,080 --> 00:04:52,000 Speaker 2: They're pretty much a Cover two cover for their coverage team, 103 00:04:52,320 --> 00:04:54,320 Speaker 2: and they like to allow their front foward to. 104 00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:56,760 Speaker 1: Get there safety stuff. 105 00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,039 Speaker 2: The positive thing, and I'm talking about defensively for the Bills. 106 00:05:01,480 --> 00:05:04,160 Speaker 2: The good thing about that is is that you're constantly 107 00:05:04,440 --> 00:05:08,040 Speaker 2: working with four guys rushing the passer. And when you 108 00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:12,760 Speaker 2: can consistently get pressure with four guys, you got seven 109 00:05:12,839 --> 00:05:16,600 Speaker 2: guys back in coverage. And when you have seven guys 110 00:05:16,680 --> 00:05:21,280 Speaker 2: in zones, they're very masterful about the points in the 111 00:05:21,480 --> 00:05:26,200 Speaker 2: route concepts because they all of these zones right they 112 00:05:26,800 --> 00:05:29,320 Speaker 2: are zoned, you know, meaning that their eyes are on 113 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:31,480 Speaker 2: a quarterback, which helped the Giants last week get those 114 00:05:31,520 --> 00:05:33,200 Speaker 2: two interceptions against two and which. 115 00:05:33,040 --> 00:05:34,720 Speaker 1: Is by the way, why the Bills also probably lead 116 00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 1: the league in takeaways because they're watching the. 117 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 2: Quarter right, but then you also get into once you go, Man, 118 00:05:40,440 --> 00:05:43,800 Speaker 2: it's almost a matchup zone. It's almost a matchup man 119 00:05:44,000 --> 00:05:48,360 Speaker 2: coverage once the routes progress downfield. And I don't think 120 00:05:48,360 --> 00:05:51,120 Speaker 2: anybody does it really better than Buffalo, you know they 121 00:05:51,240 --> 00:05:55,320 Speaker 2: are They do a really good job and getting pressure 122 00:05:55,440 --> 00:05:56,200 Speaker 2: with only the. 123 00:05:56,279 --> 00:05:59,640 Speaker 1: Front four, and I think those zone defense is probably 124 00:05:59,760 --> 00:06:01,640 Speaker 1: four teams to hold the ball a little bit longer, 125 00:06:01,680 --> 00:06:03,600 Speaker 1: which he gives time for the plushers to get home. 126 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:06,080 Speaker 2: Which is like it's almost like a false sense of security, 127 00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 2: you know, it's just like, oh, they had this much 128 00:06:08,440 --> 00:06:11,080 Speaker 2: time in the pocket, but no, these guys are in 129 00:06:11,279 --> 00:06:14,760 Speaker 2: zone back there and they're allowing you to basically throw 130 00:06:14,800 --> 00:06:18,320 Speaker 2: those underneath routes. But they're also allowing that rush to 131 00:06:18,400 --> 00:06:20,240 Speaker 2: get there as well because the coverage is so good 132 00:06:20,279 --> 00:06:23,440 Speaker 2: on the back end. And that scares me pretty much. Yeah, 133 00:06:23,480 --> 00:06:26,160 Speaker 2: it scares me. And then, like I said, the arrival 134 00:06:26,200 --> 00:06:29,000 Speaker 2: of epinessa last week, I couldn't not see him. And 135 00:06:29,040 --> 00:06:31,880 Speaker 2: then we watched it here the morning of the Giants 136 00:06:31,960 --> 00:06:35,719 Speaker 2: game when we were doing the pregame show and Epiness 137 00:06:35,800 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 2: was all the free I watched it again and man, 138 00:06:37,839 --> 00:06:40,360 Speaker 2: he had a great game, and he's one of the 139 00:06:40,520 --> 00:06:43,440 Speaker 2: cogs along the defensive line. Ed Oliver is a dog, 140 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:48,640 Speaker 2: he's a beast. They have some holes there. I think offensively, 141 00:06:48,760 --> 00:06:52,559 Speaker 2: they didn't run the football well the last couple of weeks, 142 00:06:53,040 --> 00:06:54,640 Speaker 2: and I didn't think they had to really won it 143 00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:56,840 Speaker 2: against Miami. But last week, I know they wanted to run. 144 00:06:56,880 --> 00:06:59,920 Speaker 2: They couldn't really run it up in London against Jacksonville. 145 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:02,720 Speaker 2: I think they're gonna come out because the first two 146 00:07:02,800 --> 00:07:05,920 Speaker 2: drives they had last week against the Jaguars was two 147 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:07,960 Speaker 2: three and outs and they only had a three or 148 00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:09,560 Speaker 2: four three and ounce of leading up to the game. 149 00:07:10,120 --> 00:07:12,480 Speaker 2: So my thing is with Buffalo, mindset is probably gonna 150 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:15,400 Speaker 2: be established to run. So we're not getting three and ounces, 151 00:07:15,400 --> 00:07:17,320 Speaker 2: we're not punting the ball because they don't want to punt. 152 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,600 Speaker 2: This is a team that doesn't want to punt a ball. 153 00:07:19,800 --> 00:07:22,080 Speaker 2: They want to be explosive on offense, and how do 154 00:07:22,120 --> 00:07:25,360 Speaker 2: you be explosive on offense? The same reason I said 155 00:07:25,840 --> 00:07:29,520 Speaker 2: that the Giants have to limit Miami is in the 156 00:07:29,600 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 2: run game, because once you get the run game going, 157 00:07:31,760 --> 00:07:34,440 Speaker 2: that opens your entire offense up. And I think Buffalo 158 00:07:34,560 --> 00:07:36,400 Speaker 2: is gonna say we're gonna run the ball on the 159 00:07:36,480 --> 00:07:38,600 Speaker 2: Giants and that'll open up the pass game to the 160 00:07:38,720 --> 00:07:42,040 Speaker 2: tremendous pass catches they have on outside and Dalston knatsin 161 00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:42,600 Speaker 2: kink and. 162 00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:45,440 Speaker 1: This is as balance as Buffalo has been offensively, I think, 163 00:07:45,480 --> 00:07:48,120 Speaker 1: probably since Josh Allen has emerged. Right, You know, they 164 00:07:48,160 --> 00:07:49,600 Speaker 1: haven't really run the ball all that well in the 165 00:07:49,640 --> 00:07:52,640 Speaker 1: last couple of years with Devin Singletary, but this year 166 00:07:52,760 --> 00:07:54,560 Speaker 1: with James Cook, they had been running the ball well 167 00:07:54,600 --> 00:07:56,040 Speaker 1: to your point, even if they didn't do it well 168 00:07:56,120 --> 00:07:58,920 Speaker 1: last week against Jacksonville. So it is something to keep 169 00:07:58,920 --> 00:08:00,840 Speaker 1: an eye on. And then just when it comes to 170 00:08:01,360 --> 00:08:05,560 Speaker 1: Josh Allen JC when he's playing his best football, meaning 171 00:08:05,600 --> 00:08:07,760 Speaker 1: when he's under control and not just chucking the ball 172 00:08:07,840 --> 00:08:09,640 Speaker 1: up there to the other team, which, by the way, 173 00:08:09,680 --> 00:08:11,600 Speaker 1: he has those games, and if that happens Sunday night, 174 00:08:11,760 --> 00:08:15,880 Speaker 1: anything can happen, We'll see. But when he's that combination 175 00:08:16,160 --> 00:08:18,040 Speaker 1: of when he wants to be a scalpel and he 176 00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:20,680 Speaker 1: just picks you apart, but also the sledgehammer what he 177 00:08:20,800 --> 00:08:23,280 Speaker 1: runs you over and throws that seventy yard pass down 178 00:08:23,320 --> 00:08:26,560 Speaker 1: the field, he's when he plays his best, he might 179 00:08:26,640 --> 00:08:28,840 Speaker 1: be the best quarterback in football. That's how good he 180 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,080 Speaker 1: is with this combination of running in passing game, right, I. 181 00:08:31,200 --> 00:08:33,160 Speaker 2: Agree with that, Like you even watch him last year, 182 00:08:33,200 --> 00:08:35,280 Speaker 2: you take away those takeaways. He is the best quarterback 183 00:08:35,320 --> 00:08:37,360 Speaker 2: in the league last year, you know. And then he 184 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:41,640 Speaker 2: has Stefan Diggs who probably consistently being the top five 185 00:08:42,160 --> 00:08:44,599 Speaker 2: receiver that he is and we both have him on 186 00:08:44,640 --> 00:08:47,120 Speaker 2: fantasy and he makes us win a lot of fantasy 187 00:08:47,200 --> 00:08:49,800 Speaker 2: games because he's a phenomenal football player. 188 00:08:49,840 --> 00:08:53,520 Speaker 1: He does everything well. He's run after catch, speed. 189 00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:53,800 Speaker 3: You name it. 190 00:08:53,880 --> 00:08:56,080 Speaker 2: And Gabe Davis no slouch either that both of their 191 00:08:56,120 --> 00:08:58,640 Speaker 2: tight ends are really good. Yea, yeah, you know. So 192 00:08:58,800 --> 00:09:01,720 Speaker 2: this is a big challenge presented for the Giants defense, 193 00:09:01,760 --> 00:09:05,400 Speaker 2: which finally got a turnover they got three last week and. 194 00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:09,320 Speaker 1: Too many big plays though that's just about to say. 195 00:09:09,679 --> 00:09:11,040 Speaker 2: But you know what it is too. I follow a 196 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:13,800 Speaker 2: lot of the Giants guys on social media, and even 197 00:09:14,000 --> 00:09:16,040 Speaker 2: the things that they were saying after it's like almost 198 00:09:16,760 --> 00:09:21,280 Speaker 2: like a false sense of confidence. I think is like 199 00:09:22,280 --> 00:09:27,000 Speaker 2: they understand that they had a hand in actually doing something, 200 00:09:27,240 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 2: you know, for like the first time collectively as a team. 201 00:09:29,679 --> 00:09:32,400 Speaker 2: Because the Giants be honest with this, all units have 202 00:09:32,480 --> 00:09:37,400 Speaker 2: been pretty poor consistently this year, and it sucks. And 203 00:09:37,760 --> 00:09:39,839 Speaker 2: I'm trying to use my words very carefully here schmil 204 00:09:40,600 --> 00:09:42,600 Speaker 2: But I don't want them to think that they played well, 205 00:09:43,200 --> 00:09:45,000 Speaker 2: you know what I mean, because they really didn't, you know. 206 00:09:45,080 --> 00:09:46,720 Speaker 2: I mean, they give up two hundred and something rushing 207 00:09:46,760 --> 00:09:48,400 Speaker 2: yards on the ground, they average like ten yards of 208 00:09:48,480 --> 00:09:52,640 Speaker 2: carry over five hundred and twenty yard total. It's not 209 00:09:52,760 --> 00:09:53,240 Speaker 2: a good game. 210 00:09:53,559 --> 00:09:56,680 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna go back rather or later. Today. I'm 211 00:09:56,720 --> 00:09:59,400 Speaker 1: interviewing Javier McKinney for our pregame show on Sunday. The 212 00:09:59,480 --> 00:10:01,880 Speaker 1: first question for him is going to be, you know, Xavier, 213 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:04,520 Speaker 1: now that you've gone back and you rewatched it and 214 00:10:04,600 --> 00:10:06,920 Speaker 1: you've gone over this week with winking your coaches, what 215 00:10:07,080 --> 00:10:09,240 Speaker 1: did you think over all of your defensive performance last week. 216 00:10:09,240 --> 00:10:11,160 Speaker 1: I'm curious to see, now that they've kind of gone 217 00:10:11,200 --> 00:10:12,520 Speaker 1: through the tape, what they think about it. 218 00:10:12,600 --> 00:10:14,520 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, because I know, even though they did 219 00:10:14,640 --> 00:10:17,959 Speaker 2: create turnovers, which is phenomenal. This is something that we've 220 00:10:17,960 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 2: talked about literally on every single show leading up to 221 00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:25,520 Speaker 2: this game, every single week, that the defense had to 222 00:10:25,640 --> 00:10:28,440 Speaker 2: create takeaways because it was four weeks, three weeks without 223 00:10:29,040 --> 00:10:31,200 Speaker 2: a takeaway. And they finally did it, which is good. 224 00:10:31,679 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: But besides the takeaways, it was pretty bad defense and 225 00:10:36,400 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 2: meaning wasn't a lot of mistackles, but it was just 226 00:10:39,760 --> 00:10:44,440 Speaker 2: guys running, running and running and running for the Miami Dolphins, 227 00:10:44,559 --> 00:10:47,160 Speaker 2: which is I mean, they just did what they normally do, 228 00:10:47,280 --> 00:10:50,959 Speaker 2: because that's not like abnormal for the Dolphins. They do 229 00:10:51,120 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: that every single week besides again, besides Buffalo, besides the 230 00:10:54,800 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: Buffalo game. You know, so they didn't really sold them 231 00:10:57,160 --> 00:11:01,360 Speaker 2: down even though they made plays. Yeah, they did make plays, 232 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: but I don't want them to get a false sense of, 233 00:11:03,920 --> 00:11:08,079 Speaker 2: you know, confidence that you make some plays, three or 234 00:11:08,120 --> 00:11:10,800 Speaker 2: four or five plays, but like most of the plays, 235 00:11:10,840 --> 00:11:13,719 Speaker 2: like you were getting gashed man and you have to 236 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 2: stop that because this Buffalo offense is maybe not as 237 00:11:17,600 --> 00:11:21,480 Speaker 2: fast but as explosive. You know, maybe don't have man 238 00:11:21,559 --> 00:11:24,160 Speaker 2: for man that speed. You know, they don't have five 239 00:11:24,280 --> 00:11:26,319 Speaker 2: guys that can run a four to two, which I 240 00:11:26,440 --> 00:11:30,280 Speaker 2: think Miami has, but they are explosive, and that they're 241 00:11:30,320 --> 00:11:33,959 Speaker 2: explosive because Josh Allen can get that ball to anywhere 242 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:34,400 Speaker 2: he wants to. 243 00:11:34,520 --> 00:11:36,880 Speaker 1: I really don't know when Devon hurt his knee in 244 00:11:36,920 --> 00:11:39,240 Speaker 1: that game, By the way, that was him on a 245 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:39,840 Speaker 1: bad day. 246 00:11:41,559 --> 00:11:43,760 Speaker 2: He looks like is he out now? Because I heard him. 247 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,480 Speaker 1: At least four weeks, I didn't know that he's interesting. 248 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:50,360 Speaker 1: So my guess is you have to get a scope 249 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,480 Speaker 1: usually that's what that means, right, Yeah. 250 00:11:52,640 --> 00:11:55,280 Speaker 2: So like, even though he's an opponent, I still I 251 00:11:55,360 --> 00:11:58,000 Speaker 2: hate guys getting I'm a former player. Like every time 252 00:11:58,040 --> 00:11:59,559 Speaker 2: I hear him get here, I'm like, oh man, it's 253 00:11:59,559 --> 00:12:00,719 Speaker 2: so bad. I don't even know the guy. 254 00:12:00,840 --> 00:12:02,040 Speaker 1: And I will say this, and this will be the 255 00:12:02,080 --> 00:12:03,680 Speaker 1: final thing that we do before we take your calls. 256 00:12:03,679 --> 00:12:05,080 Speaker 1: And I'm gonna get to some of your emails too, 257 00:12:05,120 --> 00:12:07,120 Speaker 1: the numbers two, one, nine, three, nine, four, five, one 258 00:12:07,160 --> 00:12:08,880 Speaker 1: thre We have a full bank of calls and setting 259 00:12:08,920 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: your emails, by the way, Big Blue kickoff at gmail 260 00:12:10,840 --> 00:12:12,199 Speaker 1: dot com. I'll try to get to those as we 261 00:12:12,280 --> 00:12:14,559 Speaker 1: go too. There might be a little bit of a 262 00:12:14,640 --> 00:12:18,480 Speaker 1: window here JC for the Giants offense the Bill's defense. 263 00:12:19,160 --> 00:12:22,080 Speaker 1: I feel like some of their issues have been shielded 264 00:12:22,120 --> 00:12:24,520 Speaker 1: a little bit by all those takeaways they have. You know, 265 00:12:25,000 --> 00:12:26,880 Speaker 1: they've given up a lot of rushing yards from week 266 00:12:26,920 --> 00:12:30,160 Speaker 1: to week. Their success rate EPA per play is not great, 267 00:12:30,240 --> 00:12:32,920 Speaker 1: especially when you take those takeaways out of the equation, 268 00:12:33,600 --> 00:12:35,880 Speaker 1: and they have been hit hard by injuries. We mentioned 269 00:12:35,920 --> 00:12:39,200 Speaker 1: Gregory Roussoda in play last week. Von Miller came back 270 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:41,079 Speaker 1: when we played about twenty snaps. I'm sure we'll probably 271 00:12:41,080 --> 00:12:42,559 Speaker 1: get up to a round forty this week. As he 272 00:12:42,600 --> 00:12:47,440 Speaker 1: continued out right, Matt Millonald's leg had hurt his knee. Gosh, 273 00:12:47,480 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 1: so he's on ir he's out for the year. Tradevius 274 00:12:49,480 --> 00:12:52,400 Speaker 1: White is out for the year. Uh. They lost Daikwon Jones, 275 00:12:52,480 --> 00:12:54,559 Speaker 1: one of their very good defensive tackle pass rusher. He 276 00:12:54,640 --> 00:12:57,040 Speaker 1: tore his peck. He's out for the year. So there 277 00:12:57,080 --> 00:12:59,040 Speaker 1: are a lot of injuries on the defensive side of 278 00:12:59,040 --> 00:13:01,240 Speaker 1: the ball here, JC. So maybe if you can get 279 00:13:01,280 --> 00:13:04,040 Speaker 1: Saquon back, maybe you could do something in the run 280 00:13:04,120 --> 00:13:06,719 Speaker 1: game here, which is to our point where we're talking 281 00:13:06,720 --> 00:13:08,880 Speaker 1: about previously. They'll like to keep those two safeties deep 282 00:13:08,960 --> 00:13:11,760 Speaker 1: and cover six, cover four, cover two. His opportunity, you 283 00:13:11,840 --> 00:13:13,600 Speaker 1: can get something going in the running game a little bit. 284 00:13:13,720 --> 00:13:15,360 Speaker 2: Yeah, And the Giants have to do that, you know, 285 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:17,520 Speaker 2: the Giants have to do it. If say Quan plays 286 00:13:17,600 --> 00:13:19,640 Speaker 2: this week, I know he will be you know, the 287 00:13:20,000 --> 00:13:23,520 Speaker 2: focal point. And if he doesn't play, I still think 288 00:13:23,559 --> 00:13:25,880 Speaker 2: the Giants need to try to run the football, you know, 289 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:28,520 Speaker 2: and I'm talking about upwards of thirty carries, you know, 290 00:13:28,640 --> 00:13:31,079 Speaker 2: which I know that sounds like a lot, but the 291 00:13:31,160 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 2: Giants need to do that. They haven't proven that they 292 00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:40,120 Speaker 2: can be a successful passing offense, especially with the with 293 00:13:40,200 --> 00:13:44,000 Speaker 2: the offensive line being depleted as it is and not 294 00:13:44,160 --> 00:13:47,120 Speaker 2: playing well when they are healthy. And then now that 295 00:13:47,720 --> 00:13:49,360 Speaker 2: I mean, they put in Thomas last week and I 296 00:13:49,480 --> 00:13:51,960 Speaker 2: was like, Okay, that's not Andrew Thomas. Which Thomas is that? Yeah, 297 00:13:52,280 --> 00:13:55,199 Speaker 2: you know, j Thomas just got activated from the practice squad, 298 00:13:55,200 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 2: and it's just like, that's how bad the offensive line 299 00:13:57,880 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 2: is that you get a guy that literally just got activated, 300 00:14:00,960 --> 00:14:04,360 Speaker 2: and then people are calling for Pew to play. I'm like, 301 00:14:04,440 --> 00:14:05,960 Speaker 2: Peugh just got here. He had took up a year 302 00:14:05,960 --> 00:14:06,360 Speaker 2: for football. 303 00:14:06,360 --> 00:14:09,000 Speaker 1: He's not playing, and he said yesterday he weighed two 304 00:14:09,080 --> 00:14:10,079 Speaker 1: hundred and ninety two pounds. 305 00:14:10,160 --> 00:14:12,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, he said, he's down thirty pounds. He looks great. 306 00:14:12,440 --> 00:14:14,800 Speaker 1: But I mean here she said, he feels goods he 307 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 1: can play it that way. He's quicker. But for a 308 00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:17,560 Speaker 1: guard to ninety two. 309 00:14:17,520 --> 00:14:20,240 Speaker 2: A guard, right, you're not asking him to play tackle cockle. 310 00:14:20,280 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 1: You might be able to get away with that at guard. 311 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:22,800 Speaker 1: That's gonna be a little bit tough. 312 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:25,760 Speaker 2: I think, yes, yes, And especially because you haven't done it, 313 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:27,880 Speaker 2: you know, like if he was playing at that for 314 00:14:28,040 --> 00:14:30,680 Speaker 2: three years, it's like, oh, yeah, he's good, like he's 315 00:14:30,720 --> 00:14:32,960 Speaker 2: been doing it. Like Kelsey's not a big guy. But 316 00:14:33,080 --> 00:14:35,560 Speaker 2: Kelsey's always been small. We're talking about the center from 317 00:14:36,680 --> 00:14:40,080 Speaker 2: He's always been a lighter safety center. He can move 318 00:14:40,240 --> 00:14:42,600 Speaker 2: very well. But Peugh hasn't been you know, so he 319 00:14:42,640 --> 00:14:44,280 Speaker 2: has to learn how to play with this new two 320 00:14:44,360 --> 00:14:48,000 Speaker 2: hundred ninety pounds body looks great. Look look, face looks good, 321 00:14:48,080 --> 00:14:48,240 Speaker 2: you know. 322 00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:50,600 Speaker 1: But and even said on Wednesday that he it was 323 00:14:50,680 --> 00:14:54,120 Speaker 1: his first padded practice since he tours ACL. When he says, yeah, 324 00:14:54,120 --> 00:14:55,280 Speaker 1: I don't know what the first team I wrote the 325 00:14:55,280 --> 00:14:57,640 Speaker 1: scout team. Yeah, man, Well that that should tell you. 326 00:14:57,880 --> 00:14:59,520 Speaker 1: I think that tells you what you need to know. 327 00:14:59,640 --> 00:15:03,000 Speaker 2: And it's probably don't get a twisted if when he's 328 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:05,920 Speaker 2: ready to go. He's a good player and he can help. Yes, 329 00:15:06,280 --> 00:15:07,840 Speaker 2: he's a good player and he will help this line. 330 00:15:07,840 --> 00:15:09,400 Speaker 2: But I just don't think he's ready yet. And even 331 00:15:09,440 --> 00:15:11,200 Speaker 2: when I spoke to him in the locker room, when 332 00:15:11,280 --> 00:15:13,720 Speaker 2: he first came in. I was like, hey man, He's like, yeah, 333 00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:15,560 Speaker 2: he's give me a couple of weeks, you know, because 334 00:15:15,560 --> 00:15:18,200 Speaker 2: he understood, like everybody knows when you take a year 335 00:15:18,280 --> 00:15:18,840 Speaker 2: for football. 336 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:20,880 Speaker 1: And he was hurt. It's not like he just was 337 00:15:20,920 --> 00:15:21,840 Speaker 1: hanging out him. 338 00:15:22,320 --> 00:15:25,240 Speaker 2: Right, and he wasn't like here in training camp. He 339 00:15:25,320 --> 00:15:27,960 Speaker 2: wasn't nowhere in training camp like usually somebody gets hurt, 340 00:15:28,440 --> 00:15:32,560 Speaker 2: they do something in OTAs they're doing training on their own, 341 00:15:33,040 --> 00:15:35,560 Speaker 2: and then they get acclimated to training camp and they 342 00:15:35,600 --> 00:15:37,680 Speaker 2: get worked in and then all of a sudden they 343 00:15:37,760 --> 00:15:41,520 Speaker 2: get activated. He has none of that, you know. So definitely, guys, 344 00:15:41,520 --> 00:15:43,560 Speaker 2: I know people are probably calling for Pew to play. 345 00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:47,000 Speaker 2: Be patient. He probably will play in the next I 346 00:15:47,080 --> 00:15:50,200 Speaker 2: guess month or so, but be patient with him and hopefully, 347 00:15:50,320 --> 00:15:52,400 Speaker 2: you know, he could he could really hold up with 348 00:15:52,480 --> 00:15:54,640 Speaker 2: that two hundred and ninety pound frame playing guard. 349 00:15:55,000 --> 00:15:57,680 Speaker 1: All right. Two one nine nine four five one three 350 00:15:58,040 --> 00:16:00,880 Speaker 1: two one nine three nine four five Scott in New Mexico? 351 00:16:00,880 --> 00:16:02,840 Speaker 1: Who lead us off? Scotty doo? What's up? Pal? 352 00:16:03,640 --> 00:16:03,760 Speaker 3: Hi? 353 00:16:03,840 --> 00:16:04,040 Speaker 4: Guys? 354 00:16:04,080 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 5: How you're doing today? First of all, yes, yesterday show 355 00:16:08,360 --> 00:16:13,320 Speaker 5: was great, John, and to your credit, you gave us 356 00:16:13,360 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 5: a prelative analysis of where the Giants are and so forth, 357 00:16:16,800 --> 00:16:19,840 Speaker 5: So you should be commended and the guests as well. 358 00:16:20,200 --> 00:16:23,480 Speaker 5: And actually bbk's the only bright spout in the season 359 00:16:23,560 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 5: so far. But I had some before I get to 360 00:16:27,400 --> 00:16:29,880 Speaker 5: my main question, I had some. I want to go 361 00:16:30,000 --> 00:16:33,720 Speaker 5: back to a comment that you go made yesterday was 362 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:35,960 Speaker 5: reflected with Lenn and I had made the same comment 363 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:38,480 Speaker 5: in a different way to both Paul and Lance, which 364 00:16:38,560 --> 00:16:42,200 Speaker 5: is a lack of physicality. And I want to contrasted 365 00:16:42,280 --> 00:16:46,840 Speaker 5: with the player in the Seattle game, a rookie Devin Wetherspoon. 366 00:16:47,080 --> 00:16:51,000 Speaker 5: I'm negating the pick six, So if forget that, just 367 00:16:51,120 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 5: the way he was hitting people, I think he hit 368 00:16:54,000 --> 00:16:57,160 Speaker 5: Garry Brightwell and basically knocked him into the twenty second century. 369 00:16:57,960 --> 00:17:01,920 Speaker 5: And that's the kind of impetus I think most Giants 370 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 5: fans are recognizing the Giants Stone have. So that's one issue. 371 00:17:06,800 --> 00:17:10,359 Speaker 5: I hope you address one of the other issues you 372 00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:14,600 Speaker 5: had highlighted in your analysis yesterday of the infamous play. 373 00:17:14,680 --> 00:17:20,720 Speaker 5: I guess of Trey Hawkins covering Tyreek Hill. Is there 374 00:17:20,840 --> 00:17:25,359 Speaker 5: any rule that I know of where the where Brian 375 00:17:25,480 --> 00:17:28,159 Speaker 5: Dabel or I don't know if Dioces or DC's can 376 00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:31,440 Speaker 5: call timeouts, but when they saw the play developed, was 377 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:34,280 Speaker 5: there a reason somebody wouldn't have called the timeout and 378 00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:36,120 Speaker 5: said this is not going to work this way. 379 00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:38,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, Wink was not as that specifically. Today he was 380 00:17:38,720 --> 00:17:40,920 Speaker 1: asked about that play and he said, as as jac 381 00:17:41,080 --> 00:17:44,040 Speaker 1: and I kind of surmised on Sunday that was a 382 00:17:44,520 --> 00:17:47,879 Speaker 1: I believe Wink the quote was a schematic issue. So no, 383 00:17:48,119 --> 00:17:51,280 Speaker 1: the plan was not to have one on one press 384 00:17:51,400 --> 00:17:53,680 Speaker 1: Trey Hawkins with no help. He would not dig into 385 00:17:53,720 --> 00:17:55,159 Speaker 1: it deeper than that, but he said it was a 386 00:17:55,200 --> 00:17:59,080 Speaker 1: schematic issue. Yeah, you can call time out there, I suppose, 387 00:17:59,240 --> 00:18:00,359 Speaker 1: but you're in you know. 388 00:18:02,240 --> 00:18:03,159 Speaker 6: Yes, I didn't you can. 389 00:18:03,600 --> 00:18:05,879 Speaker 1: I don't know. It's it's it's a good question. I 390 00:18:05,920 --> 00:18:09,040 Speaker 1: think that's a tough thing to see in real time. Okay, 391 00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:11,600 Speaker 1: And maybe maybe they thought their players could have just 392 00:18:11,720 --> 00:18:15,640 Speaker 1: on the field to whatever, you know issue. The formation 393 00:18:15,760 --> 00:18:17,720 Speaker 1: the Dolphins put the defense in kind of made for 394 00:18:17,760 --> 00:18:21,440 Speaker 1: their defensive scheme. But I don't know the answer directly. 395 00:18:21,160 --> 00:18:21,640 Speaker 3: To that question. 396 00:18:21,760 --> 00:18:24,720 Speaker 5: Okay. The other question is on the same as what 397 00:18:24,880 --> 00:18:27,920 Speaker 5: we call what the push push push play or the 398 00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:31,040 Speaker 5: Brother they Love play. Is there any rule that says 399 00:18:31,119 --> 00:18:34,320 Speaker 5: you couldn't have brought in Dexter Lawrence. And actually, as 400 00:18:34,400 --> 00:18:38,159 Speaker 5: they did in the eighty five game Chicago using William 401 00:18:38,240 --> 00:18:39,600 Speaker 5: and the refrigerator. 402 00:18:39,880 --> 00:18:41,920 Speaker 1: You can put him and you can put whoever you 403 00:18:41,960 --> 00:18:42,560 Speaker 1: want on the field. 404 00:18:43,040 --> 00:18:45,720 Speaker 5: So why didn't they if you have a suspect out, 405 00:18:46,000 --> 00:18:48,520 Speaker 5: you know, dex Lawrence is the strongest player I believe 406 00:18:48,560 --> 00:18:50,159 Speaker 5: on I mean on the Giant. 407 00:18:50,160 --> 00:18:53,000 Speaker 1: I mean, Scott, on those plays they put what was it, 408 00:18:53,080 --> 00:18:55,960 Speaker 1: shanelm you another offensive lineman behind the quarterback as not 409 00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,879 Speaker 1: like they didn't put big guys behind them to push them. 410 00:18:58,760 --> 00:19:01,880 Speaker 5: But Dexter Lawrence, if he can't move somebody in one yard, 411 00:19:01,960 --> 00:19:05,119 Speaker 5: he's getting he's getting paid too much money. And I 412 00:19:05,200 --> 00:19:07,280 Speaker 5: would think that would be the obvious thing to do. 413 00:19:08,000 --> 00:19:09,919 Speaker 5: I'm just stating this. I'm not saying that's what they 414 00:19:09,920 --> 00:19:12,080 Speaker 5: should do, but it seems obvious to me that's the 415 00:19:12,200 --> 00:19:14,399 Speaker 5: kind of thing they should do. And these are coaching 416 00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:18,560 Speaker 5: things and the other thing that I'm I think you're. 417 00:19:18,440 --> 00:19:19,760 Speaker 1: Reaching on now in a little bit, Scott, to be 418 00:19:19,840 --> 00:19:21,920 Speaker 1: honest with yeah, I think that's a bit of a 419 00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:22,760 Speaker 1: reach on that one. 420 00:19:23,359 --> 00:19:23,520 Speaker 7: With you. 421 00:19:24,240 --> 00:19:29,399 Speaker 5: All right, Well, my main concern, and I know you 422 00:19:29,440 --> 00:19:32,679 Speaker 5: have a banker call, So will ended here. The Giants 423 00:19:32,680 --> 00:19:35,480 Speaker 5: are obviously having a bad time, and no matter how 424 00:19:35,560 --> 00:19:38,760 Speaker 5: you stated, they're not playing well and we know all 425 00:19:38,800 --> 00:19:41,720 Speaker 5: the excuses. The one thing I want to know for 426 00:19:41,920 --> 00:19:45,240 Speaker 5: next year? How are they going to retain some of 427 00:19:45,320 --> 00:19:50,320 Speaker 5: the players, specifically say Kwan Barkley and say McKinney, which 428 00:19:50,320 --> 00:19:53,520 Speaker 5: you're going to be interviewing and say why would I 429 00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,040 Speaker 5: want to be on this team? And I'm not saying 430 00:19:56,080 --> 00:19:58,080 Speaker 5: this in a bad way. I'm just saying why would 431 00:19:58,080 --> 00:20:00,760 Speaker 5: I want to be on this team if I know 432 00:20:00,920 --> 00:20:03,640 Speaker 5: it's going to take another two, maybe even three years 433 00:20:03,760 --> 00:20:07,720 Speaker 5: before we really develop an offensive line that's cohesive enough 434 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:10,880 Speaker 5: to block and protect Daniel Shones. And I'll be glad 435 00:20:10,880 --> 00:20:12,639 Speaker 5: to take your answers off the thank you. 436 00:20:12,640 --> 00:20:14,879 Speaker 1: Scott, but I'll go to my player there who has 437 00:20:14,960 --> 00:20:18,119 Speaker 1: been in free aging situations before, and how you know 438 00:20:18,280 --> 00:20:20,480 Speaker 1: how that process works and then what a player's mindset is. 439 00:20:20,720 --> 00:20:22,480 Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean I don't. I don't think a lot 440 00:20:22,520 --> 00:20:24,840 Speaker 2: of players see it like that, you know, especially because 441 00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:28,240 Speaker 2: every year, you know, there's a lot of optimism coming 442 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 2: into every year, you know, and you always think that 443 00:20:30,200 --> 00:20:32,800 Speaker 2: you got better. You know, that is always not the case, 444 00:20:32,840 --> 00:20:34,919 Speaker 2: of course, but I don't really think there was ever 445 00:20:35,000 --> 00:20:36,639 Speaker 2: a year but like, oh, we're not as good as 446 00:20:36,640 --> 00:20:39,840 Speaker 2: we were last year in the preseason or the off season. 447 00:20:40,160 --> 00:20:42,480 Speaker 2: You know, it just doesn't happen. And the Giants will 448 00:20:42,520 --> 00:20:45,160 Speaker 2: get better, you know, hopefully they get better sooner than later. 449 00:20:45,440 --> 00:20:48,200 Speaker 2: But I think they will improve by year's end, you know. 450 00:20:48,359 --> 00:20:50,200 Speaker 2: And I think that has to do a lot with 451 00:20:50,359 --> 00:20:52,920 Speaker 2: the culture that they established here. And I know it's 452 00:20:53,080 --> 00:20:56,800 Speaker 2: rough right now, because once you're losing, and you've you've 453 00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:00,280 Speaker 2: losed consistently in the way that the Giants losing hurts 454 00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:04,240 Speaker 2: the morale of every single person in the locker room, 455 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:06,280 Speaker 2: you know. So I know the locker room was probably 456 00:21:06,359 --> 00:21:10,800 Speaker 2: not as enthusiastic as it was in early this year 457 00:21:10,920 --> 00:21:14,480 Speaker 2: or in twenty twenty two, and that that's rough, you know. 458 00:21:14,600 --> 00:21:18,399 Speaker 2: But you know, all of these guys, no matter who 459 00:21:18,520 --> 00:21:22,040 Speaker 2: we talk about, what position, every single player wants to 460 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:25,280 Speaker 2: play in this league for extensive period of time, you know. 461 00:21:25,440 --> 00:21:27,879 Speaker 2: And usually the guys that don't want to play that 462 00:21:27,960 --> 00:21:30,359 Speaker 2: long and they have, you know, they don't play in 463 00:21:30,400 --> 00:21:32,680 Speaker 2: the league. You know. I know guys like that, you know, 464 00:21:32,720 --> 00:21:35,960 Speaker 2: I know guys that didn't really like football and got 465 00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:38,040 Speaker 2: into the league and said I'm good, you know, and 466 00:21:38,119 --> 00:21:40,359 Speaker 2: they get out. I don't think there's like that on 467 00:21:40,440 --> 00:21:43,840 Speaker 2: his team, you know. So a person like Xavier McKinney, 468 00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:46,320 Speaker 2: he would love to stay here, you know, and he 469 00:21:46,359 --> 00:21:48,159 Speaker 2: would love to be one of the reasons that the 470 00:21:48,240 --> 00:21:49,040 Speaker 2: Giants bounce back. 471 00:21:49,119 --> 00:21:51,200 Speaker 1: And I actually do think he has played fairly well 472 00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:53,320 Speaker 1: this year. I don't think he's been a big part 473 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:54,000 Speaker 1: of the problem here. 474 00:21:54,240 --> 00:21:56,919 Speaker 2: No, no, definitely not. And of course, say Kwon Barkley, 475 00:21:57,080 --> 00:21:58,960 Speaker 2: I think he wants to stay a Giant. He said 476 00:21:59,000 --> 00:22:01,640 Speaker 2: it in the past, and of course him being hurt 477 00:22:01,680 --> 00:22:06,720 Speaker 2: right now puts that at jeopardy and the Giants do 478 00:22:06,840 --> 00:22:09,560 Speaker 2: have to figure that out. That's that's gonna be another 479 00:22:09,640 --> 00:22:13,200 Speaker 2: talking point no matter how the rest of this year goes, 480 00:22:13,400 --> 00:22:15,840 Speaker 2: because he's missed the time that he's missed, no matter 481 00:22:15,960 --> 00:22:17,600 Speaker 2: what he does for the rest of the year, how 482 00:22:17,680 --> 00:22:20,680 Speaker 2: productive is he, how productive he is. Hopefully he doesn't 483 00:22:20,720 --> 00:22:22,840 Speaker 2: get hurt again, Hopefully he can play for the rest 484 00:22:22,840 --> 00:22:25,440 Speaker 2: of the year. The talking point after this season is 485 00:22:25,480 --> 00:22:27,240 Speaker 2: what they're gonna do with Saquan. That's gonna be one 486 00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:28,200 Speaker 2: of the main talking points. 487 00:22:28,840 --> 00:22:30,240 Speaker 1: It is, and I think how the rest of the 488 00:22:30,320 --> 00:22:32,840 Speaker 1: season goes is going to dictate and this is even 489 00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:36,320 Speaker 1: the Saquan specifically, but in general, what their offseason posture 490 00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:37,800 Speaker 1: is going to be here jac is going to be 491 00:22:37,800 --> 00:22:39,480 Speaker 1: determined by how the rest of the season goes. Yes, 492 00:22:39,640 --> 00:22:41,560 Speaker 1: you know, even if they start as poorly as they have, 493 00:22:41,720 --> 00:22:44,359 Speaker 1: if they finish winning seven to nine or something like that, 494 00:22:44,440 --> 00:22:47,600 Speaker 1: and you know, with seven or eight wins and once 495 00:22:47,680 --> 00:22:49,840 Speaker 1: everyone gets healthy, this team looks like what we thought 496 00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:51,080 Speaker 1: they were going to look like at the start of 497 00:22:51,119 --> 00:22:54,200 Speaker 1: the year, then I think it's a different conversation. If 498 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:55,760 Speaker 1: we get to the end of the year and you're 499 00:22:55,840 --> 00:22:58,040 Speaker 1: staring at a top five draft pick and you're like, 500 00:22:58,040 --> 00:23:00,320 Speaker 1: all right, well maybe this is more of a you know, 501 00:23:01,080 --> 00:23:03,600 Speaker 1: down to the studs situation, then I think your your 502 00:23:03,680 --> 00:23:06,200 Speaker 1: plans change a little bit. So I think that's gonna 503 00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:08,480 Speaker 1: really I think having those conversations now, I just don't 504 00:23:08,480 --> 00:23:11,120 Speaker 1: think we have enough information to really, you know, make 505 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,760 Speaker 1: those types of decisions at the current time. Two one nine, three, 506 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:17,359 Speaker 1: nine four five one three. You go subscribe to the 507 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,800 Speaker 1: Giants Hittle podcast, folks.

Guys? 529 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:14,000 Speaker 1: All right, yeah, we're good man. What's up? 530 00:24:14,840 --> 00:24:15,040 Speaker 3: Good? 531 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:15,280 Speaker 7: Good? 532 00:24:15,359 --> 00:24:15,560 Speaker 3: Yeah. 533 00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:17,480 Speaker 8: I just want to talk a little about the offensive 534 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:20,040 Speaker 8: line and how you know, we all have to be 535 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,720 Speaker 8: patient with it. It's tough because we're all looking for 536 00:24:22,920 --> 00:24:26,800 Speaker 8: that instant success, but you know, when you're passing and playing, 537 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:29,120 Speaker 8: it's going to take more more time. 538 00:24:29,200 --> 00:24:29,880 Speaker 6: And that's what their. 539 00:24:30,119 --> 00:24:32,840 Speaker 8: Experience and experience. A bunch of guys were going in 540 00:24:32,960 --> 00:24:36,040 Speaker 8: and out. There's no stability there. And until we have 541 00:24:36,200 --> 00:24:40,160 Speaker 8: some stability on that offensive line, we're going to struggle, unfortunately. 542 00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:42,480 Speaker 8: And I just want to hear your thoughts about that. 543 00:24:42,640 --> 00:24:45,119 Speaker 8: And then the second thing and then I'll close, is 544 00:24:45,440 --> 00:24:49,800 Speaker 8: if you notice the time that Tyreek Hill scored on 545 00:24:49,920 --> 00:24:53,480 Speaker 8: that touchdown the rookie there. I think it's Jackson thirty 546 00:24:53,560 --> 00:24:59,640 Speaker 8: seven the last second hawk yep, yeah, Hawks. Hawkins went 547 00:24:59,760 --> 00:25:02,520 Speaker 8: from from the bottom of the screen to the top 548 00:25:02,600 --> 00:25:05,560 Speaker 8: of the screen to sprint to Tyreek Hill. He was 549 00:25:05,600 --> 00:25:08,200 Speaker 8: probably a one to two seconds and then the play occurred, 550 00:25:08,560 --> 00:25:10,280 Speaker 8: and I don't know if he needed over the what 551 00:25:10,400 --> 00:25:13,520 Speaker 8: he needed over the top help from Xavier. I don't 552 00:25:13,560 --> 00:25:15,880 Speaker 8: know if that was Exavier's fault that he wasn't there 553 00:25:16,040 --> 00:25:19,480 Speaker 8: because he was beat by about five yards on that path. 554 00:25:19,600 --> 00:25:22,680 Speaker 8: I just wanted to hear your thoughts on that, and 555 00:25:22,760 --> 00:25:24,520 Speaker 8: I'll hang up and you guys have a going. 556 00:25:24,520 --> 00:25:26,040 Speaker 1: Thanks, Erge Jesse. Why don't you take time? 557 00:25:26,480 --> 00:25:31,119 Speaker 2: Uh, when we talk about the offensive line, I mean, 558 00:25:31,240 --> 00:25:34,679 Speaker 2: patients is the key for sure. And you know they 559 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:38,040 Speaker 2: got two practice guy, two practice squad guys playing on 560 00:25:38,160 --> 00:25:43,520 Speaker 2: the line that already was porous before they were playing already, 561 00:25:43,720 --> 00:25:45,800 Speaker 2: you know. And uh, definitely be patient. 562 00:25:47,600 --> 00:25:49,120 Speaker 1: Of course, the more your patient you are, the better 563 00:25:49,200 --> 00:25:52,480 Speaker 1: chance that your quarterbacks have of getting continually pounded, which 564 00:25:52,480 --> 00:25:54,879 Speaker 1: is a problem. Yeah, it's that's why it's hard to 565 00:25:54,920 --> 00:25:57,200 Speaker 1: be patient, because its everything else. 566 00:25:58,000 --> 00:26:02,080 Speaker 2: It's it's rough. It's rough. And then like everybody watches 567 00:26:02,160 --> 00:26:05,520 Speaker 2: all the film, like it's not like you're gonna surprise defenses. 568 00:26:05,600 --> 00:26:08,440 Speaker 2: You know, they know the weakest link right now on 569 00:26:08,560 --> 00:26:11,560 Speaker 2: the offense, you know, and they're gonna have I mean, 570 00:26:11,600 --> 00:26:15,120 Speaker 2: they don't even have to have like stunts. They could 571 00:26:15,160 --> 00:26:18,080 Speaker 2: just they're just beating the guys, you know, and paying 572 00:26:18,160 --> 00:26:21,960 Speaker 2: quickly too. Yeah, and and that's it's rough. It's rough. 573 00:26:22,040 --> 00:26:24,879 Speaker 2: It's really rough to watch, you know. And and with 574 00:26:25,080 --> 00:26:27,080 Speaker 2: Collins Lyell Collins was here, do we let them out 575 00:26:27,080 --> 00:26:27,399 Speaker 2: the building? 576 00:26:28,240 --> 00:26:30,000 Speaker 1: Oh well, I don't even know how healthy is at 577 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:32,679 Speaker 1: this point. Remember he also towards a clat. 578 00:26:32,160 --> 00:26:34,480 Speaker 2: Year, So I thought about that just now when I 579 00:26:34,600 --> 00:26:37,960 Speaker 2: was talking. It's it's hard, guys, It's it's frustrating to watch. 580 00:26:38,080 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 2: It's it's we feel it too, you know. And and 581 00:26:40,400 --> 00:26:42,440 Speaker 2: the Giants feel it too, of course, the quarterbacks feel it, 582 00:26:42,840 --> 00:26:45,560 Speaker 2: you know. So it's just something that the Giants need 583 00:26:45,720 --> 00:26:48,639 Speaker 2: to figure out because if they can't improve from what 584 00:26:48,720 --> 00:26:51,480 Speaker 2: they've been putting out the last few weeks, it's it's 585 00:26:51,520 --> 00:26:54,920 Speaker 2: gonna keep continue going this way, like like there's nobody 586 00:26:54,960 --> 00:26:56,800 Speaker 2: that gonna be like, Okay, we're not gonna abuse these 587 00:26:56,840 --> 00:26:58,760 Speaker 2: guys because the offensive line this week, They're gonna keep 588 00:26:58,760 --> 00:27:00,960 Speaker 2: doing it, you know. So it's definitely gonna get worse. 589 00:27:01,000 --> 00:27:02,879 Speaker 1: What was the second question he had a question, and 590 00:27:03,080 --> 00:27:04,520 Speaker 1: he's mentioned something about Hawkins with. 591 00:27:04,600 --> 00:27:07,640 Speaker 2: The coming laid over and then Xavier McKinney. I don't 592 00:27:07,680 --> 00:27:11,320 Speaker 2: really know, like they won't divulge that information to us. 593 00:27:11,800 --> 00:27:14,720 Speaker 2: I don't really know. I think something happened where either 594 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:18,800 Speaker 2: he was doing the wrong thing or somebody didn't help 595 00:27:18,880 --> 00:27:19,119 Speaker 2: him out. 596 00:27:19,160 --> 00:27:21,119 Speaker 1: Well, yeah, yeah, exactly. I don't know what it was. 597 00:27:21,280 --> 00:27:22,600 Speaker 1: There was some kind of issue do. 598 00:27:22,640 --> 00:27:24,000 Speaker 2: I think it was probably the second part and. 599 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:26,040 Speaker 1: They were matching up at that point. A Dory had 600 00:27:26,080 --> 00:27:28,480 Speaker 1: had Tyreek Hill most of the game banks at Jalen 601 00:27:28,520 --> 00:27:30,960 Speaker 1: Waddle and the Dory wasn't on the field for that 602 00:27:31,119 --> 00:27:33,159 Speaker 1: particular snap because I think he was either getting a 603 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:36,200 Speaker 1: restoor or something like that, so or maybe he was 604 00:27:36,320 --> 00:27:38,800 Speaker 1: momentarily banged up, whatever the case might have been. So 605 00:27:39,440 --> 00:27:41,200 Speaker 1: you know, Hawkins I think was trying to locate Hill. 606 00:27:41,240 --> 00:27:43,120 Speaker 1: That's why he was late going over there. It wasn't 607 00:27:43,200 --> 00:27:45,560 Speaker 1: like a left and right situation. So just something to 608 00:27:45,640 --> 00:27:47,239 Speaker 1: keep in mind. And this brings up a point from 609 00:27:47,320 --> 00:27:49,880 Speaker 1: yesterday's show about the offensive line. Somebody called up and said, 610 00:27:50,200 --> 00:27:52,119 Speaker 1: you know why they let Nick Gates go? I think 611 00:27:52,200 --> 00:27:53,760 Speaker 1: that was a big mistake. And we talked about how 612 00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:55,680 Speaker 1: well you all he did get a decent contract, which 613 00:27:55,680 --> 00:27:58,120 Speaker 1: we're all happy to see. And then William Broderick wrote 614 00:27:58,160 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 1: in talked about how well the Giants did sign J. C. 615 00:28:00,760 --> 00:28:03,080 Speaker 1: Hassenhauer from the Steelers. That was something they thought could 616 00:28:03,080 --> 00:28:05,440 Speaker 1: help as a you know, true center backup. Then he 617 00:28:05,520 --> 00:28:08,080 Speaker 1: goes and tears his triceps. Front officers is always up 618 00:28:08,080 --> 00:28:09,960 Speaker 1: against it. This is be ringing the email of where 619 00:28:09,960 --> 00:28:12,240 Speaker 1: they want to allocate money. You know, gms have like 620 00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:14,119 Speaker 1: a sixty percent hit rate, and at some point did 621 00:28:14,119 --> 00:28:16,040 Speaker 1: the Giants have to catch some type of break here 622 00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:19,240 Speaker 1: in terms of injuries? And then he just kind of 623 00:28:19,280 --> 00:28:21,360 Speaker 1: goes on and says, you know, is is it any 624 00:28:21,440 --> 00:28:23,800 Speaker 1: surprise that that Daniel Jones looks a little show shocked 625 00:28:23,840 --> 00:28:26,560 Speaker 1: back there? Who wouldn't be. So it's just you know, 626 00:28:26,720 --> 00:28:29,160 Speaker 1: how do you try to mac? Can you max protect 627 00:28:29,200 --> 00:28:31,520 Speaker 1: on every play? But then that takes receivers out of it. 628 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:33,760 Speaker 1: You know, just kind of what are your answers here 629 00:28:33,800 --> 00:28:35,320 Speaker 1: as you try to move forward? And I think the 630 00:28:35,640 --> 00:28:37,800 Speaker 1: point we're making that there aren't always the end. Yeah, 631 00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:38,640 Speaker 1: just kind is what it is. 632 00:28:39,000 --> 00:28:42,120 Speaker 2: Yeah, And they're trying to figure out the right combination 633 00:28:42,200 --> 00:28:44,800 Speaker 2: of offensive linemen, you know, and yeah, the. 634 00:28:44,840 --> 00:28:46,480 Speaker 1: Problem is that guys he can't hurt, so they really 635 00:28:46,560 --> 00:28:47,480 Speaker 1: can't stick with one. 636 00:28:47,800 --> 00:28:50,640 Speaker 2: No, it's it's it sucks man when we see guys 637 00:28:50,680 --> 00:28:53,520 Speaker 2: go down from a you know, like I said, already 638 00:28:53,680 --> 00:28:59,240 Speaker 2: a porous line which we haven't played, you know, well 639 00:28:59,600 --> 00:29:03,080 Speaker 2: this year at all, and then you see more guys 640 00:29:03,160 --> 00:29:05,560 Speaker 2: go down, and then you're in certain practice squad players 641 00:29:05,600 --> 00:29:08,680 Speaker 2: who just got signed to the practice squad not before, 642 00:29:08,840 --> 00:29:11,920 Speaker 2: not long before they started playing. The Giants are in 643 00:29:12,000 --> 00:29:16,200 Speaker 2: a dire situation. You know, it's a very rough situation. 644 00:29:16,360 --> 00:29:19,800 Speaker 2: And when you when you when you can't protect and 645 00:29:19,920 --> 00:29:22,719 Speaker 2: you can't push guys off the ball to run a football, 646 00:29:22,880 --> 00:29:26,200 Speaker 2: like you're seeing what happens like, this is what happens 647 00:29:26,640 --> 00:29:29,080 Speaker 2: when you can't protect your quarterback, you can't get a 648 00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:31,480 Speaker 2: push to run a football. This is what it looks like. 649 00:29:31,640 --> 00:29:34,800 Speaker 1: They're trying to find one thing jac that they can 650 00:29:35,000 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: hang their hat on offensively and say, all right, we 651 00:29:37,480 --> 00:29:40,000 Speaker 1: know we can do this. Then once the other team 652 00:29:40,080 --> 00:29:42,160 Speaker 1: tries to stop that, maybe that opens up something else. 653 00:29:42,240 --> 00:29:43,760 Speaker 1: The problem is that they haven't even been able to 654 00:29:43,840 --> 00:29:45,840 Speaker 1: find that one thing where you can say, all right, 655 00:29:46,280 --> 00:29:48,000 Speaker 1: we know we can do this well with the way 656 00:29:48,040 --> 00:29:49,360 Speaker 1: the offense is functioning right now. 657 00:29:49,520 --> 00:29:52,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, no, they cannot say that like you saying that 658 00:29:52,760 --> 00:29:55,160 Speaker 2: right now, I'm like, no, they can't, because they don't 659 00:29:55,560 --> 00:29:59,080 Speaker 2: they they right now they can't do anything well right now. 660 00:29:59,480 --> 00:30:01,720 Speaker 2: You know, they do have to figure that out. I 661 00:30:01,880 --> 00:30:06,000 Speaker 2: agree with you. They and it's it's really tough to watch, 662 00:30:06,520 --> 00:30:08,800 Speaker 2: you know. But I'm not going to say I trust 663 00:30:08,840 --> 00:30:10,640 Speaker 2: in them because and I'm talking about the coaches and 664 00:30:11,160 --> 00:30:14,600 Speaker 2: the players, because it's not all about what they have 665 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:17,920 Speaker 2: and what they could do, because that could change because 666 00:30:17,920 --> 00:30:18,280 Speaker 2: of injury. 667 00:30:18,320 --> 00:30:20,360 Speaker 1: It's a matter of disposal. 668 00:30:20,120 --> 00:30:22,600 Speaker 2: Right at the time. Because you start a game with 669 00:30:22,720 --> 00:30:25,400 Speaker 2: the five Okay, cool, we saw the last few weeks. Yeah, 670 00:30:25,440 --> 00:30:27,160 Speaker 2: you started game to five and then okay, and then 671 00:30:27,240 --> 00:30:27,960 Speaker 2: people get hurt. 672 00:30:27,920 --> 00:30:29,640 Speaker 1: First drive John Michael Schmid's out of the game two 673 00:30:29,640 --> 00:30:30,320 Speaker 1: weeks ago, so. 674 00:30:30,400 --> 00:30:34,520 Speaker 2: It's like that's that's the game though, And you know, 675 00:30:34,600 --> 00:30:38,440 Speaker 2: the Giants have to figure out, you know, what they're 676 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 2: going to do moving forward on the offensive line. And 677 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:43,920 Speaker 2: then also once somebody goes down with somebody will go down, 678 00:30:44,400 --> 00:30:46,600 Speaker 2: you know who they're going to insert in. And I 679 00:30:46,640 --> 00:30:50,200 Speaker 2: don't know, maybe they have to consider doing a different 680 00:30:50,240 --> 00:30:54,960 Speaker 2: approach to how they're trying to block plays, you know, 681 00:30:55,160 --> 00:30:57,200 Speaker 2: And and I don't I don't know, man, this is 682 00:30:57,280 --> 00:31:02,360 Speaker 2: a this is really unfamiliar territory for me because like that, 683 00:31:02,760 --> 00:31:05,680 Speaker 2: the amount of injuries that happen among the offensive line 684 00:31:05,960 --> 00:31:08,120 Speaker 2: is absurd. You know, I don't know if I've ever 685 00:31:08,200 --> 00:31:10,480 Speaker 2: been a part of any franchise that was like that 686 00:31:11,040 --> 00:31:13,520 Speaker 2: from high school all the way through through college, I 687 00:31:13,560 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 2: mean through through the NFL. And it's rough. 688 00:31:16,960 --> 00:31:18,920 Speaker 1: It is all right, Let's go to hey Dom, do 689 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,680 Speaker 1: me if they ever pick up Charlie and Len both 690 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,360 Speaker 1: of them have called in already once this week. We're 691 00:31:22,400 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 1: on our one caller a week. Things. Don't want to 692 00:31:23,880 --> 00:31:25,160 Speaker 1: make sure you give other people a chance to get in, 693 00:31:25,240 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 1: so just let them know that, and we'd love to 694 00:31:27,000 --> 00:31:28,560 Speaker 1: hear from him next week. Again. I'm just trying to 695 00:31:28,720 --> 00:31:31,440 Speaker 1: keep the lines free for other callers. Okay, let's go 696 00:31:31,520 --> 00:31:34,120 Speaker 1: to Alex and Syracuse's up next, Alex. What's going on? Pal? 697 00:31:35,040 --> 00:31:35,400 Speaker 6: Not much? 698 00:31:35,440 --> 00:31:38,640 Speaker 4: I guys doing today. We're doing great, all right, Always 699 00:31:38,680 --> 00:31:41,959 Speaker 4: glad to help bump. Charlie always a fan of Oh 700 00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:45,480 Speaker 4: we love I'm just kidding I and he keeps it interesting. 701 00:31:46,160 --> 00:31:49,320 Speaker 4: Uh thanks to RJ. He kind of took my point 702 00:31:49,640 --> 00:31:51,640 Speaker 4: about the offensive line, so that gets. 703 00:31:51,520 --> 00:31:52,040 Speaker 5: That out of the way. 704 00:31:52,040 --> 00:31:54,840 Speaker 4: But I agree, man, like, I think patience is obviously 705 00:31:54,880 --> 00:31:56,920 Speaker 4: hard in this situation, but I do think that there's 706 00:31:57,000 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 4: reason to be optimistic that and I think, like you said, 707 00:31:59,920 --> 00:32:01,160 Speaker 4: ye like, I think by the end of the year, 708 00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:03,080 Speaker 4: we're gonna see some improvement there, and I think hopefully 709 00:32:03,480 --> 00:32:05,800 Speaker 4: going into next year, even more improvement. I think injuries 710 00:32:05,840 --> 00:32:09,600 Speaker 4: have been really difficult for us, But I got one 711 00:32:09,640 --> 00:32:13,280 Speaker 4: point in one quick question. My point is I'm a 712 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:15,800 Speaker 4: big DJ guy. Obviously, it's awful that he's hurt and 713 00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:18,240 Speaker 4: he's been getting hit as much as he is, but 714 00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:21,200 Speaker 4: I'm also a little excited about the idea that maybe 715 00:32:21,240 --> 00:32:22,720 Speaker 4: we get to see Tyrod Taylor. 716 00:32:22,440 --> 00:32:23,120 Speaker 5: Play this weekend. 717 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,480 Speaker 4: I'm a big Tyrod guys and back in Buffalo. I 718 00:32:26,560 --> 00:32:28,800 Speaker 4: think I actually think he's still kind of underrated, that 719 00:32:28,880 --> 00:32:31,280 Speaker 4: he's had some success in the league. I'm a really 720 00:32:31,320 --> 00:32:33,800 Speaker 4: big fan of his, and I actually think that sometimes 721 00:32:33,880 --> 00:32:35,920 Speaker 4: in a situation like we have right now on one 722 00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 4: and four team, you get a guy like Tyrod coming in, 723 00:32:38,760 --> 00:32:40,920 Speaker 4: maybe that could be the kind of new spark that 724 00:32:41,040 --> 00:32:43,160 Speaker 4: helps ignite something, right. I mean, I don't know if 725 00:32:43,160 --> 00:32:45,520 Speaker 4: it will be, but I like Tyrod a lot. I 726 00:32:45,560 --> 00:32:47,760 Speaker 4: have a lot of faith in that guy, and I 727 00:32:47,920 --> 00:32:49,760 Speaker 4: hope for Daniels take on some level at least for 728 00:32:49,800 --> 00:32:52,160 Speaker 4: this week. And also if he's gonna come in and play, 729 00:32:52,640 --> 00:32:55,760 Speaker 4: where better than to go back to Buffalo? And I 730 00:32:55,840 --> 00:32:58,280 Speaker 4: think that there's something interesting about that storyline. So I'd 731 00:32:58,320 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 4: love to see Tyrod play this week personally, and I hope, 732 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 4: I hope you can have some success. And my question, 733 00:33:05,160 --> 00:33:06,480 Speaker 4: I'll take both these. 734 00:33:06,640 --> 00:33:07,080 Speaker 6: Off the air. 735 00:33:07,640 --> 00:33:11,240 Speaker 4: My question for you guys is specifically, uh, for for JC, 736 00:33:12,200 --> 00:33:14,400 Speaker 4: one thing I've noticed, and again this is me reading 737 00:33:14,400 --> 00:33:16,320 Speaker 4: between the lines a little bit here, but when you 738 00:33:16,360 --> 00:33:20,080 Speaker 4: watch the interviews with these guys postgame and midweek, it 739 00:33:20,280 --> 00:33:22,520 Speaker 4: seems like there's a little bit of the fun and 740 00:33:22,640 --> 00:33:24,520 Speaker 4: the spark that they had last year. And again, of 741 00:33:24,600 --> 00:33:26,840 Speaker 4: course they were winning last year, but it wasn't easy 742 00:33:26,920 --> 00:33:29,239 Speaker 4: saleing last year, and it just seemed like they they 743 00:33:29,360 --> 00:33:31,880 Speaker 4: had this sort of like they were having more fun 744 00:33:32,040 --> 00:33:33,800 Speaker 4: through it. And even in the beginning of the season, 745 00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:37,480 Speaker 4: before before the losses happened and then and hopes were high, 746 00:33:37,920 --> 00:33:42,320 Speaker 4: I didn't quite see that same level of enthusiasm and fun. 747 00:33:42,920 --> 00:33:44,680 Speaker 4: And obviously now you're one and four and you're you're 748 00:33:44,680 --> 00:33:46,600 Speaker 4: where you're at. So my question for you JC is 749 00:33:46,760 --> 00:33:49,400 Speaker 4: is you know, how do you how do you cultivate 750 00:33:49,480 --> 00:33:51,840 Speaker 4: that and how do you how do you get that back? 751 00:33:52,240 --> 00:33:55,480 Speaker 4: Especially now given given where they are in the season, 752 00:33:55,640 --> 00:33:57,400 Speaker 4: is there a way, what is the kind of spark 753 00:33:57,480 --> 00:33:59,760 Speaker 4: that's needed to kind of reignite that and then to 754 00:33:59,800 --> 00:34:01,200 Speaker 4: get that back in the locker room. 755 00:34:02,680 --> 00:34:03,200 Speaker 2: You gotta win. 756 00:34:04,840 --> 00:34:04,959 Speaker 1: Win. 757 00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:08,200 Speaker 2: Winning's fun, Yeah, winning is very fun. Losing is not 758 00:34:08,360 --> 00:34:10,880 Speaker 2: good at all, you know. I remember my days in 759 00:34:10,960 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 2: Tampa where we were like one and six to start 760 00:34:13,719 --> 00:34:17,120 Speaker 2: the season. I'm a guy who hates losing, and I 761 00:34:17,280 --> 00:34:19,680 Speaker 2: was miserable. I will go home and have an attitude. 762 00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:22,040 Speaker 2: I will be upset when I in the post game, 763 00:34:22,080 --> 00:34:24,239 Speaker 2: you know, like, and it would mess up my week, 764 00:34:24,600 --> 00:34:26,960 Speaker 2: not just like the day the game day, Like I 765 00:34:27,160 --> 00:34:29,319 Speaker 2: was like that, you know. And and I'm pretty sure 766 00:34:29,400 --> 00:34:31,640 Speaker 2: a lot of guys are similar to how I was 767 00:34:31,680 --> 00:34:34,160 Speaker 2: when I played, because people care about what they're doing. 768 00:34:34,239 --> 00:34:34,400 Speaker 3: You know. 769 00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:37,320 Speaker 2: People care that their family's watching, their fans are watching, 770 00:34:37,440 --> 00:34:40,120 Speaker 2: you know, their friends are watching. And it's rough, you know, 771 00:34:40,200 --> 00:34:41,600 Speaker 2: and you want to put a good product out there. 772 00:34:41,640 --> 00:34:42,960 Speaker 2: You want to play well. You want your team to 773 00:34:43,000 --> 00:34:45,319 Speaker 2: play well, you know, and when you're not, it's hard 774 00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:50,040 Speaker 2: to keep that same type of positive, enthusiastic energy. It's 775 00:34:50,120 --> 00:34:52,360 Speaker 2: just I mean it's almost impossible to do, you know. 776 00:34:52,640 --> 00:34:55,920 Speaker 2: But once they win, you know, the locker room will 777 00:34:56,000 --> 00:34:57,879 Speaker 2: be happy. You know, and then the week a little 778 00:34:58,080 --> 00:34:59,919 Speaker 2: be a little bit better. You know, they can tie 779 00:35:00,000 --> 00:35:01,920 Speaker 2: another win in there, and then it'll start getting a 780 00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:04,680 Speaker 2: little bit better, you know. But they until they win, 781 00:35:04,800 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 2: it's gonna be like this. This is how it's gonna be. 782 00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:09,279 Speaker 2: You can't you can't. You can't put a spark in 783 00:35:09,360 --> 00:35:12,200 Speaker 2: a losing like a team that's losing consistently. You can't 784 00:35:12,200 --> 00:35:14,040 Speaker 2: be like, all right, guys, let's get fired up, like 785 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:15,399 Speaker 2: it's just not gonna happen. 786 00:35:16,400 --> 00:35:18,839 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's hard to his other point on the quarterbacks, 787 00:35:19,800 --> 00:35:23,960 Speaker 1: I'll just say this, I think mentally for Daniel let alone, physically, 788 00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:26,439 Speaker 1: we golf might not be the worst thing at this point. Yeah, 789 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:29,440 Speaker 1: we kind of reset the mind. You know, you get back, 790 00:35:29,640 --> 00:35:32,319 Speaker 1: try to be comfortable again, because what he's been through 791 00:35:32,320 --> 00:35:34,279 Speaker 1: the last couple of weeks. And this goes back to 792 00:35:34,360 --> 00:35:37,239 Speaker 1: the email that we got. It's just that, you know, 793 00:35:37,880 --> 00:35:39,399 Speaker 1: you go out there every week and you just keep 794 00:35:39,400 --> 00:35:41,759 Speaker 1: getting hit again and again and again. It's gonna leak 795 00:35:41,800 --> 00:35:45,200 Speaker 1: into your subconscious that and your internal clock's gonna speed up. 796 00:35:45,200 --> 00:35:46,799 Speaker 1: It's just the way it is. Maybe a game where 797 00:35:46,840 --> 00:35:49,360 Speaker 1: you sit there and you're like, all right, I gotta 798 00:35:49,560 --> 00:35:51,759 Speaker 1: get everything straight here. I gotta watch, I gotta figure 799 00:35:51,760 --> 00:35:53,279 Speaker 1: it out. Maybe when you come back, you'll feel a 800 00:35:53,280 --> 00:35:55,440 Speaker 1: little bit better about what's going on around you. And 801 00:35:55,520 --> 00:35:57,400 Speaker 1: then I know you're a big Tyrod Taylor fan too. 802 00:35:57,400 --> 00:35:59,000 Speaker 1: I know you're pretty psyched to see him play as well. 803 00:35:59,120 --> 00:36:01,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, absolutely, you know, I just if he we don't 804 00:36:01,680 --> 00:36:04,440 Speaker 2: know who's right. I just hope that they can protect them. 805 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,640 Speaker 2: You know that that's it. Because Tyrod, I don't think 806 00:36:07,680 --> 00:36:10,320 Speaker 2: he's as durable as Daniel Jones. Like I said, I 807 00:36:10,400 --> 00:36:12,480 Speaker 2: said this before, Daniel Jones is one of the most 808 00:36:12,560 --> 00:36:15,880 Speaker 2: durable players, not just quarterbacks in the NFL. The amount 809 00:36:15,880 --> 00:36:19,239 Speaker 2: of ticks, the hits he take on in every single 810 00:36:19,320 --> 00:36:22,800 Speaker 2: week consistently is absurd. I think he's absurd. 811 00:36:23,200 --> 00:36:23,319 Speaker 1: Uh. 812 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:26,120 Speaker 2: He does it to himself sometimes and then sometimes he 813 00:36:26,239 --> 00:36:28,040 Speaker 2: can't control it. You know, he's getting hit from behind. 814 00:36:28,480 --> 00:36:31,560 Speaker 2: Uh pause, and you know he can't do certain things 815 00:36:31,600 --> 00:36:33,600 Speaker 2: in the pocket. He can't see certain blitzes. That first 816 00:36:33,680 --> 00:36:36,279 Speaker 2: Witherspoon Blitzer couldn't see that one, you know. But then 817 00:36:36,640 --> 00:36:39,880 Speaker 2: he doesn't protect himself when he runs the ball, and 818 00:36:40,440 --> 00:36:42,799 Speaker 2: he just keep getting up, keep getting up, keeping up. 819 00:36:42,840 --> 00:36:46,080 Speaker 2: But it just can't it accumulates too. 820 00:36:46,920 --> 00:36:48,480 Speaker 1: A smaller guy, yeah, he's not as big. 821 00:36:48,960 --> 00:36:52,560 Speaker 2: Yeah, And Daniel Jones is a big human being. He's 822 00:36:52,760 --> 00:36:55,879 Speaker 2: six six probably two thirty thirty five and he's all 823 00:36:55,920 --> 00:36:58,160 Speaker 2: of you know that that height end Tyrod's you know, 824 00:36:58,239 --> 00:37:01,680 Speaker 2: maybe six foot possibly maybe two hundred even, you know, 825 00:37:01,880 --> 00:37:04,920 Speaker 2: not a big guy. And you know it's they have 826 00:37:05,080 --> 00:37:08,160 Speaker 2: to protect them and if not, you're gonna see what 827 00:37:08,520 --> 00:37:10,360 Speaker 2: you saw from Tyrod last week, which he got in 828 00:37:10,440 --> 00:37:13,840 Speaker 2: the game and ran around, which he can do. But again, 829 00:37:14,239 --> 00:37:17,200 Speaker 2: once you run around, that kind of takes away that 830 00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:20,799 Speaker 2: pocket protection that you have, and the guys they will 831 00:37:20,880 --> 00:37:21,680 Speaker 2: take shots on you. 832 00:37:22,040 --> 00:37:22,160 Speaker 6: You know. 833 00:37:22,280 --> 00:37:26,200 Speaker 2: I think Tyrod does a better job and sliding, better 834 00:37:26,280 --> 00:37:28,200 Speaker 2: job and getting out of bounds than Daniel Jones did. 835 00:37:28,320 --> 00:37:31,920 Speaker 2: So hopefully he can protect himself once he escapes the 836 00:37:32,000 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 2: pocket and you know, tries to create some things on 837 00:37:34,520 --> 00:37:37,600 Speaker 2: his own, you know. But uh, yes, if he plays 838 00:37:37,960 --> 00:37:40,400 Speaker 2: and Daniel Jones doesn't go, I'll be excited, you know. 839 00:37:40,520 --> 00:37:42,480 Speaker 2: And if Daniel Jones does go, I'll be excited too. 840 00:37:43,320 --> 00:37:45,400 Speaker 2: But I like what you said, you know, maybe this 841 00:37:45,520 --> 00:37:47,440 Speaker 2: is a time for him not only get right physically, 842 00:37:47,840 --> 00:37:49,960 Speaker 2: you know, and take a week off and have a 843 00:37:50,000 --> 00:37:51,920 Speaker 2: physical break, but also I meant to break as well. 844 00:37:52,280 --> 00:37:54,359 Speaker 2: He's had a tough you know, few weeks to start 845 00:37:54,400 --> 00:37:54,760 Speaker 2: the season. 846 00:37:55,120 --> 00:37:58,000 Speaker 1: Yeah, two, one nine, five, one three. Let's go back 847 00:37:58,000 --> 00:38:00,719 Speaker 1: to the phone and say what's up to five in Union, 848 00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:03,120 Speaker 1: New Jersey. What's up, fav, How. 849 00:38:03,040 --> 00:38:03,799 Speaker 9: We're doing, guys? 850 00:38:03,960 --> 00:38:06,960 Speaker 3: What's up? You know? One? 851 00:38:07,120 --> 00:38:08,800 Speaker 9: I want to say thank you to Charlie for knocketing 852 00:38:08,840 --> 00:38:10,680 Speaker 9: on the line today. I'm going to missus ramp, but 853 00:38:10,680 --> 00:38:11,279 Speaker 9: I'll look forward to. 854 00:38:11,320 --> 00:38:11,759 Speaker 3: It next time. 855 00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:13,359 Speaker 1: And by the way, Fabio, this this is the second 856 00:38:13,400 --> 00:38:15,520 Speaker 1: straight day he has tried to break the one call 857 00:38:15,560 --> 00:38:17,960 Speaker 1: a week policy, so he is initially on warning, trolley, 858 00:38:18,040 --> 00:38:21,400 Speaker 1: do not try again. Doms all over, Dom's on it. 859 00:38:23,000 --> 00:38:25,000 Speaker 9: Well, guys, I want to talk about the offensive and 860 00:38:25,040 --> 00:38:27,920 Speaker 9: defensive line. And you know, jac I know you definitely 861 00:38:27,960 --> 00:38:30,719 Speaker 9: have a lot of experience with this in practice, right, Like, 862 00:38:31,080 --> 00:38:33,400 Speaker 9: I mean, obviously it sucks to have injuries, right, but 863 00:38:33,920 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 9: they say iron tripen's iron, right, and I feel like 864 00:38:36,760 --> 00:38:39,080 Speaker 9: right now, with these injuries, it's been tough, right, we 865 00:38:39,160 --> 00:38:41,600 Speaker 9: don't have the iron in there. We have you know whatever, 866 00:38:41,680 --> 00:38:44,160 Speaker 9: it might be the bronze, right, these these guys might 867 00:38:44,239 --> 00:38:46,520 Speaker 9: not be the best, So how much does that affect 868 00:38:46,640 --> 00:38:48,839 Speaker 9: the defensive line when they're trying to go against them 869 00:38:48,840 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 9: in practice? You know, Squad one going to get squad one. 870 00:38:51,600 --> 00:38:53,640 Speaker 6: And I'm happy. 871 00:38:53,440 --> 00:38:54,960 Speaker 9: Tibodeau is starting to get there and he's starting to 872 00:38:55,000 --> 00:38:57,160 Speaker 9: get some stacks now, right, But the rest of these 873 00:38:57,200 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 9: guys really seem like they're having a difficult time getting 874 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:02,560 Speaker 9: past the offensive lines of these other teams. And I'm 875 00:39:02,600 --> 00:39:04,839 Speaker 9: wondering how much of it is that they're not going 876 00:39:04,880 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 9: against the top guys on our squad and we don't 877 00:39:07,000 --> 00:39:09,680 Speaker 9: really have that talent in there to really make them, 878 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:11,719 Speaker 9: you know, push them to the to the point where 879 00:39:11,719 --> 00:39:12,600 Speaker 9: they're getting into the games. 880 00:39:12,640 --> 00:39:14,800 Speaker 3: And it always feels, you know level. 881 00:39:15,880 --> 00:39:19,759 Speaker 2: That's a great question, and I think that's why people consider, uh, 882 00:39:19,960 --> 00:39:23,200 Speaker 2: like the offensive line that five, that group of five, 883 00:39:23,400 --> 00:39:26,000 Speaker 2: than the starters. Right, They're one of the most integral 884 00:39:26,080 --> 00:39:29,319 Speaker 2: parts of a team because, yes, you protecting quarterback, you're 885 00:39:29,360 --> 00:39:33,440 Speaker 2: establishing run game, you're you're communicator as well, and in 886 00:39:33,520 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 2: the front of the defense that you're going against. But 887 00:39:36,239 --> 00:39:39,600 Speaker 2: then also in practice, you know, you're going against your 888 00:39:39,680 --> 00:39:43,480 Speaker 2: defensive linemen and they do do good on good here, 889 00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,879 Speaker 2: you know, not that much, but they do do good 890 00:39:45,920 --> 00:39:50,240 Speaker 2: on good and you always hear it from younger players 891 00:39:50,640 --> 00:39:51,239 Speaker 2: when they come in. 892 00:39:51,440 --> 00:39:52,840 Speaker 1: And by the way, what can this means by that 893 00:39:52,960 --> 00:39:54,279 Speaker 1: is the ones goal against the ones? 894 00:39:54,719 --> 00:39:57,680 Speaker 2: Yes, and you always hear this from younger players or 895 00:39:57,760 --> 00:40:01,359 Speaker 2: players that is going against a very talented all pro 896 00:40:01,480 --> 00:40:04,160 Speaker 2: type of player. They always say, Man, I'm going against 897 00:40:04,160 --> 00:40:06,759 Speaker 2: that guy a practice and he makes me better, you know. 898 00:40:06,920 --> 00:40:09,799 Speaker 2: So I hear your question, and like I said, that's 899 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:14,000 Speaker 2: why offensive line is so important because it's not only 900 00:40:14,239 --> 00:40:18,120 Speaker 2: about what they're doing offensively against other teams, but also 901 00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:20,600 Speaker 2: if you have a great offensive line, like let's call 902 00:40:21,040 --> 00:40:24,080 Speaker 2: San fran with Trent Williams. Trent Williams is going against 903 00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:27,600 Speaker 2: Drake Jackson, He's going against both. You know, he's going 904 00:40:27,640 --> 00:40:30,720 Speaker 2: against those guys. These literally all pro players going against 905 00:40:30,760 --> 00:40:33,120 Speaker 2: each other. So when you have another guy that comes 906 00:40:33,160 --> 00:40:35,600 Speaker 2: in and rushes against them, they're gonna get an All 907 00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:37,160 Speaker 2: Pro player and they have to be able to have 908 00:40:37,600 --> 00:40:41,120 Speaker 2: the skills set to beat that player. So, yes, this 909 00:40:41,320 --> 00:40:44,440 Speaker 2: is that's why the offensive line needs to improve because 910 00:40:44,640 --> 00:40:47,160 Speaker 2: it has such more of an impact than what you 911 00:40:47,280 --> 00:40:49,680 Speaker 2: guys see on Sundays. That was a fantastic question. 912 00:40:50,760 --> 00:40:52,600 Speaker 9: So, I mean it's affecting both sides of the ball 913 00:40:52,640 --> 00:40:53,080 Speaker 9: at this point. 914 00:40:53,280 --> 00:40:55,680 Speaker 2: Yes, not as much, not as much, not as much, 915 00:40:55,840 --> 00:40:57,360 Speaker 2: but yes, yes. 916 00:40:57,480 --> 00:40:58,120 Speaker 1: Appreciate the. 917 00:41:00,040 --> 00:41:01,600 Speaker 3: Yeah, go ahead, Yeah yeah. 918 00:41:01,600 --> 00:41:04,400 Speaker 9: And and I mean to the point with the offensive 919 00:41:04,440 --> 00:41:06,400 Speaker 9: line and putting them in positions for success. I mean, 920 00:41:06,760 --> 00:41:08,759 Speaker 9: I mean, I don't know how much DJ has really 921 00:41:08,800 --> 00:41:11,719 Speaker 9: progressed with this in his career. I mean we still feel, 922 00:41:11,800 --> 00:41:14,000 Speaker 9: I still feel like day in or week in, week out, 923 00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:16,320 Speaker 9: we see you know, these miss assignments on the on 924 00:41:16,440 --> 00:41:19,520 Speaker 9: the offensive line, and maybe it's really you know, pinning it. 925 00:41:20,200 --> 00:41:22,120 Speaker 9: Not not fair to Evan Neil, right, He's under a 926 00:41:22,160 --> 00:41:24,160 Speaker 9: lot of pressure at this point, but it feels like 927 00:41:24,280 --> 00:41:26,919 Speaker 9: every other week he's just flat out missing a guy 928 00:41:27,040 --> 00:41:29,440 Speaker 9: on the edge, right, and he's just going inside and 929 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,800 Speaker 9: he's blocking no one or you know, even blocking it, 930 00:41:32,200 --> 00:41:34,160 Speaker 9: just shoving his own other a lignement in the back. 931 00:41:34,560 --> 00:41:36,400 Speaker 3: I mean, is that is that on DJ? There is 932 00:41:36,440 --> 00:41:37,080 Speaker 3: that on Neil? 933 00:41:37,320 --> 00:41:39,920 Speaker 9: And you know, is this something where if Tyrod does 934 00:41:39,960 --> 00:41:42,480 Speaker 9: play this next week, you know, being the proven vet 935 00:41:42,719 --> 00:41:44,440 Speaker 9: that he that he has been for the last what 936 00:41:44,640 --> 00:41:46,960 Speaker 9: ten plus years, that this is something where he might 937 00:41:47,040 --> 00:41:48,960 Speaker 9: actually be able to really you know, help the team 938 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:50,080 Speaker 9: be set up for success there. 939 00:41:50,280 --> 00:41:52,799 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. Flave good another really good question 940 00:41:52,880 --> 00:41:55,320 Speaker 1: by the way, excellent call. And Tony don't you actually 941 00:41:55,360 --> 00:41:57,640 Speaker 1: talks about this on Johnsontle podcast that that just went 942 00:41:57,719 --> 00:41:59,960 Speaker 1: up today and he talked about that it was very underrated, 943 00:42:00,120 --> 00:42:05,279 Speaker 1: how getting that was pretty good so on, and he 944 00:42:05,360 --> 00:42:08,520 Speaker 1: talked about how the chemistry with an offensive line in 945 00:42:08,640 --> 00:42:11,080 Speaker 1: terms of doing stuff like that can be very underrated 946 00:42:11,239 --> 00:42:17,040 Speaker 1: JC where passing off stunts right, communicating those protections inside out, 947 00:42:17,480 --> 00:42:20,840 Speaker 1: understanding pre snap, who has what guy right? For example, 948 00:42:20,880 --> 00:42:22,279 Speaker 1: and that Evan the oput that he's talking about. He 949 00:42:22,360 --> 00:42:24,759 Speaker 1: thought he had the butzing linebacker, but he didn't have 950 00:42:24,840 --> 00:42:26,799 Speaker 1: to get the butzing linebacker. The guard could have taken him. 951 00:42:26,800 --> 00:42:29,360 Speaker 1: He should have taken the outside guy right. But is 952 00:42:29,440 --> 00:42:32,160 Speaker 1: that like a bad mic identification pre snap by the 953 00:42:32,239 --> 00:42:35,319 Speaker 1: center because John Michael Schmidz isn't there is it? They 954 00:42:35,440 --> 00:42:37,840 Speaker 1: identified it right, but they just heard it wrong on 955 00:42:37,960 --> 00:42:41,200 Speaker 1: the outside. Like there's a million different things that can happen, 956 00:42:41,719 --> 00:42:44,200 Speaker 1: especially when you're not that familiar with the guy next 957 00:42:44,239 --> 00:42:47,000 Speaker 1: to you. That can make a situation where even if 958 00:42:47,000 --> 00:42:49,480 Speaker 1: you're out manned, you're not used to working together, it 959 00:42:49,520 --> 00:42:50,560 Speaker 1: can make things even worse. 960 00:42:50,719 --> 00:42:52,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, yep, And I'm not making any excuses, but you 961 00:42:53,080 --> 00:42:55,279 Speaker 2: just don't know exactly what happened on that play, no 962 00:42:55,400 --> 00:42:57,520 Speaker 2: no idea. Yep. I'm gonna put it on him though, 963 00:42:58,000 --> 00:43:00,800 Speaker 2: because he's a defensive lineman. That was just free, you know. 964 00:43:00,920 --> 00:43:02,560 Speaker 2: But you I really don't know. But like I really 965 00:43:02,600 --> 00:43:04,440 Speaker 2: don't know. I'm just gonna blame him because you know, 966 00:43:04,680 --> 00:43:06,600 Speaker 2: he's been getting too much heat and I'm not gonna 967 00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:08,480 Speaker 2: not give him heat. I'm giving heat too, you know. 968 00:43:09,600 --> 00:43:11,160 Speaker 2: He was like, I want to lay off of them, No, 969 00:43:11,440 --> 00:43:13,080 Speaker 2: keep on, because he has to play better. He has 970 00:43:13,120 --> 00:43:15,040 Speaker 2: to play better. He has to play But he's one 971 00:43:15,080 --> 00:43:16,759 Speaker 2: of the only guys that's healthy from the beginning of 972 00:43:16,800 --> 00:43:21,480 Speaker 2: the year that's playing his natural position, the position that's correct, 973 00:43:21,480 --> 00:43:23,239 Speaker 2: you know. So he definitely has to play better, and 974 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:25,920 Speaker 2: you know, I think he will. He has to, you know, 975 00:43:26,080 --> 00:43:28,799 Speaker 2: because if he doesn't play well, they're gonna move him. 976 00:43:29,320 --> 00:43:29,360 Speaker 3: Like. 977 00:43:29,760 --> 00:43:31,719 Speaker 2: He has to play better, And we talked about this before. 978 00:43:31,880 --> 00:43:34,080 Speaker 2: They're not gonna do it anytime soon, but if he continues, 979 00:43:34,960 --> 00:43:37,840 Speaker 2: they're gonna move him like because they he has to 980 00:43:37,880 --> 00:43:41,760 Speaker 2: play better. Like the tackle positions, they are very difficult 981 00:43:41,800 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 2: positions to play. And I speak about this every week 982 00:43:44,040 --> 00:43:46,640 Speaker 2: because they're going against the greatest I think athletes in 983 00:43:46,719 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 2: the world, and those pass rushers, defensive ends, linebackers, stand 984 00:43:50,400 --> 00:43:53,560 Speaker 2: up guys, and they gotta get those corner blitzes, those 985 00:43:53,640 --> 00:43:56,480 Speaker 2: linebacker blitzers off the edge. Sure, so he has to 986 00:43:56,640 --> 00:44:01,160 Speaker 2: play better because he's protecting the most valuable commodity in 987 00:44:01,320 --> 00:44:05,000 Speaker 2: the whole New York Giants organization and Daniel Jones. So 988 00:44:05,120 --> 00:44:06,520 Speaker 2: he has to play better. So I'm not gonna let 989 00:44:06,560 --> 00:44:10,160 Speaker 2: him off the hook. But the offensive line together, they 990 00:44:10,280 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 2: have to step up, like for real, whoever's out there, 991 00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:15,680 Speaker 2: they had to step up. Coach Johnson has to step up. 992 00:44:15,880 --> 00:44:18,480 Speaker 2: They have to play better because the Giants will not 993 00:44:18,560 --> 00:44:21,400 Speaker 2: be able to do anything against any team if this 994 00:44:21,560 --> 00:44:25,120 Speaker 2: offensive line cannot improve, it just can't. Like you know, 995 00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:28,200 Speaker 2: people thinking, oh, after the Buffalo it gets a little easier, 996 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:30,000 Speaker 2: It doesn't get easier, not for. 997 00:44:30,040 --> 00:44:32,399 Speaker 1: The lines now the overall Like you're not facing Josh 998 00:44:32,400 --> 00:44:36,600 Speaker 1: Allen again. But guess what, the Washington and Jet defensive lines, 999 00:44:36,840 --> 00:44:40,200 Speaker 1: That's what I'm saying, better than Buffalo. They're better than Miami's, 1000 00:44:40,200 --> 00:44:41,640 Speaker 1: they're better than Seattle's. 1001 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:46,120 Speaker 2: It doesn't get better, you know. I mean it's up front, 1002 00:44:46,160 --> 00:44:49,160 Speaker 2: it doesn't know And then you talk about, you know, 1003 00:44:49,360 --> 00:44:52,160 Speaker 2: the part of the offense is going to be the 1004 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 2: part of the Giants team that needs to improve. That's 1005 00:44:54,640 --> 00:44:56,279 Speaker 2: the strengths of the other teams that we're going to 1006 00:44:56,320 --> 00:45:00,320 Speaker 2: play after the Bills. Like you said, the defensive line 1007 00:45:01,000 --> 00:45:05,200 Speaker 2: for the Commanders very tough, very strong. And then following 1008 00:45:05,239 --> 00:45:07,719 Speaker 2: week you got Quinn Williams. You got like, there's dogs, bro. 1009 00:45:08,160 --> 00:45:10,280 Speaker 1: They have like six dudes. It's like not even just forties, 1010 00:45:10,320 --> 00:45:11,480 Speaker 1: it's like six dudes. 1011 00:45:11,280 --> 00:45:11,440 Speaker 3: You know. 1012 00:45:11,560 --> 00:45:13,879 Speaker 2: So it's it's not going to get any easier. It's 1013 00:45:13,920 --> 00:45:15,640 Speaker 2: not going to be like, all right now, we're gonna 1014 00:45:15,680 --> 00:45:18,319 Speaker 2: hit an easy stretch of the season. It's not gonna 1015 00:45:18,360 --> 00:45:22,000 Speaker 2: be like that, you know. So the offense needs to improve, 1016 00:45:22,080 --> 00:45:24,600 Speaker 2: the offensive line and needs to improve. And I think 1017 00:45:24,680 --> 00:45:27,320 Speaker 2: if they do improve, you're gonna start seeing signs of 1018 00:45:27,400 --> 00:45:30,120 Speaker 2: what we think the potential of this team could possibly do. 1019 00:45:30,600 --> 00:45:33,359 Speaker 2: Because I think that that's the weakest part right now 1020 00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:36,680 Speaker 2: the Giants, and it's a collective effort. It's not just 1021 00:45:36,800 --> 00:45:39,120 Speaker 2: on the individuals on the offensive line. I think it 1022 00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:40,560 Speaker 2: has to do with coaching, It has to do with 1023 00:45:40,880 --> 00:45:43,760 Speaker 2: play calling, and it has to do with Daniel Jones' performance, 1024 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:46,440 Speaker 2: has to do with Tyrod Taylor if he's playing to Una. 1025 00:45:47,040 --> 00:45:49,399 Speaker 2: All of those things combined. You know, I'm not gonna 1026 00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:52,880 Speaker 2: put it on one guy because it's not just absolutely 1027 00:45:52,960 --> 00:45:55,240 Speaker 2: and then also defense too. I put it on the defense. 1028 00:45:55,320 --> 00:45:57,520 Speaker 2: Last week, they came up with three turnovers, they scored 1029 00:45:57,560 --> 00:46:00,120 Speaker 2: a defensive touchdown. I think they they stepped up in 1030 00:46:00,160 --> 00:46:03,480 Speaker 2: the way. They made plays, and they caught the ball, 1031 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:06,120 Speaker 2: they didn't drop the ball, you know, and they made plays. 1032 00:46:06,320 --> 00:46:08,120 Speaker 2: But then they got to take another step forward because 1033 00:46:08,120 --> 00:46:10,880 Speaker 2: they can't allow Buffalo to go up and down the 1034 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:12,440 Speaker 2: field like they allow Miami to go up and down 1035 00:46:12,440 --> 00:46:14,600 Speaker 2: the field, because they're just as explosive. 1036 00:46:14,760 --> 00:46:16,440 Speaker 1: I got three more calls. I got a couple of emails. 1037 00:46:16,440 --> 00:46:17,560 Speaker 1: I want to get to them. So let's get to it. 1038 00:46:17,600 --> 00:46:19,000 Speaker 1: Let's go to Eric in Upstate New York. I want 1039 00:46:19,040 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 1: to stick on the offensive linecause he wants to touch 1040 00:46:21,080 --> 00:46:23,439 Speaker 1: on that topic. Here Dom online one Eric, what's up. 1041 00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 7: Hi, guys, one time listener, first time caller, loved the show. 1042 00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:28,480 Speaker 1: I appreciate it, man, what's up? 1043 00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:31,840 Speaker 7: Yeah? So I had a couple questions about the injuries 1044 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:35,839 Speaker 7: with John Michael Schmidt and Andrew Thomas. It's like we hear, 1045 00:46:36,400 --> 00:46:38,080 Speaker 7: you know, every week, their day to day or they're 1046 00:46:38,120 --> 00:46:41,280 Speaker 7: not getting better. But what do we know the extent 1047 00:46:41,480 --> 00:46:44,920 Speaker 7: of for example, John Michael Schmidt's injury, because all we 1048 00:46:45,040 --> 00:46:45,800 Speaker 7: know is a shoulder. 1049 00:46:46,040 --> 00:46:48,560 Speaker 1: That's all we know. Michael Schiz, we don't know, and 1050 00:46:48,640 --> 00:46:50,120 Speaker 1: they do not give those details out. 1051 00:46:51,239 --> 00:46:52,640 Speaker 7: Oh it's so frustrating. 1052 00:46:52,880 --> 00:46:54,759 Speaker 1: Now I can tell you Andrew Thomas is a bad 1053 00:46:54,760 --> 00:46:58,120 Speaker 1: hamstring pull. I mean that would be so that one 1054 00:46:58,200 --> 00:47:00,920 Speaker 1: is not a mystery. It's just a bad hamstring And 1055 00:47:01,040 --> 00:47:01,440 Speaker 1: should we. 1056 00:47:01,520 --> 00:47:04,040 Speaker 7: Be concerned about that? Like is this something that we 1057 00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:08,280 Speaker 7: might not see him for before the buy for example? 1058 00:47:08,920 --> 00:47:10,480 Speaker 1: I mean the buye is another of what month and 1059 00:47:10,520 --> 00:47:13,759 Speaker 1: a half? At this point, I don't know him. Look 1060 00:47:14,120 --> 00:47:16,360 Speaker 1: a really bad hamstering jac you can attest to this 1061 00:47:16,520 --> 00:47:18,640 Speaker 1: can be up to six weeks, that's just the way 1062 00:47:18,680 --> 00:47:20,480 Speaker 1: it goes like. It can be six to eight. But 1063 00:47:20,600 --> 00:47:22,680 Speaker 1: it's a little different an offensive lineman versus like a 1064 00:47:22,760 --> 00:47:25,640 Speaker 1: corner or wide receiver too, So I would hope we 1065 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:28,000 Speaker 1: would see him before the buye. Eric, But you know, 1066 00:47:28,239 --> 00:47:30,920 Speaker 1: I'm not looking at MRI Machines. I'm not talking to trainers, 1067 00:47:30,960 --> 00:47:32,360 Speaker 1: you know, and if I did, they wouldn't tell me. 1068 00:47:32,360 --> 00:47:34,080 Speaker 1: And I can say it on the show anyway, but 1069 00:47:35,200 --> 00:47:35,560 Speaker 1: I mean. 1070 00:47:35,719 --> 00:47:38,279 Speaker 2: You don't and then not great and then also too 1071 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:41,880 Speaker 2: like once they start, you're not going to get anything 1072 00:47:41,880 --> 00:47:44,480 Speaker 2: from day Ball, Like that's it. Once somebody gets hurt, 1073 00:47:44,719 --> 00:47:46,960 Speaker 2: just be like all right, we'll just wait till he 1074 00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:47,480 Speaker 2: comes back. 1075 00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:48,839 Speaker 1: Knee day to day, knee week. 1076 00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:51,760 Speaker 2: Yeah, day Ball is not going to give guys anything. 1077 00:47:51,880 --> 00:47:53,400 Speaker 2: That's just how he does business. 1078 00:47:53,600 --> 00:47:55,560 Speaker 1: That is where how it is, that's where he's come from, 1079 00:47:55,880 --> 00:47:57,399 Speaker 1: NGO in the Alabama, et cetera. 1080 00:47:57,920 --> 00:47:59,360 Speaker 2: He's just not going to give you, guys. So it 1081 00:47:59,520 --> 00:48:01,759 Speaker 2: leaves us to speculate, you know, which we're not going 1082 00:48:01,840 --> 00:48:02,800 Speaker 2: to really do too much of. 1083 00:48:03,200 --> 00:48:03,880 Speaker 1: He is it useless? 1084 00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:07,239 Speaker 2: Yeah, because I don't want to guess even though like, yes, 1085 00:48:07,320 --> 00:48:09,360 Speaker 2: I know, like I can see somebody get hurt and 1086 00:48:09,440 --> 00:48:11,359 Speaker 2: I could say, oh, that's an a c L. Oh, 1087 00:48:11,440 --> 00:48:13,719 Speaker 2: that's an m c L right, but who knows how 1088 00:48:13,760 --> 00:48:19,640 Speaker 2: long that takes? Yeah, those are varying, right, varying things, right. 1089 00:48:20,680 --> 00:48:23,080 Speaker 7: Yeah, that's the one thing. It's you listen and he's 1090 00:48:23,160 --> 00:48:26,960 Speaker 7: just so stoic there, same answer every every week. Uh, 1091 00:48:27,840 --> 00:48:29,880 Speaker 7: day to day or he's getting better or he's not. 1092 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:32,600 Speaker 2: You know, it's rough, it's rough. 1093 00:48:32,719 --> 00:48:36,640 Speaker 1: It is a good stuff. All right, Let's go to 1094 00:48:37,000 --> 00:48:39,759 Speaker 1: David in Michigan. He's been holding the longest. David, what's up? 1095 00:48:40,800 --> 00:48:45,040 Speaker 3: Hey, guys, thanks a lot. You have done a really 1096 00:48:45,120 --> 00:48:50,359 Speaker 3: good job the last week of talking me off the ledge, right, 1097 00:48:52,280 --> 00:48:55,040 Speaker 3: and I'll be I know you guys disagree, and I 1098 00:48:55,160 --> 00:48:58,600 Speaker 3: know all disagrees with this, but the only difference between 1099 00:48:58,719 --> 00:49:03,560 Speaker 3: one and sixteen and like six and eleven to me 1100 00:49:04,120 --> 00:49:07,239 Speaker 3: is a lower draft pick. Like I don't care if 1101 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:10,640 Speaker 3: you go six. You know, if we win six games 1102 00:49:10,680 --> 00:49:13,200 Speaker 3: is correctly, I don't see it's winning six games. 1103 00:49:13,280 --> 00:49:17,440 Speaker 1: So but on the injuries and by the way, and 1104 00:49:17,480 --> 00:49:19,480 Speaker 1: by the way, just real quick, as a fan, as 1105 00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:21,400 Speaker 1: someone that rooted for the New York Knicks for a 1106 00:49:21,520 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 1: very long time, I completely understand the way you look 1107 00:49:25,160 --> 00:49:27,359 Speaker 1: at it from a fan perspective, because I, as someone 1108 00:49:27,400 --> 00:49:29,040 Speaker 1: that rooted for the next I'm like, guys, don't win 1109 00:49:29,120 --> 00:49:31,120 Speaker 1: twenty seven games, just win fifteen games. You get the 1110 00:49:31,120 --> 00:49:33,160 Speaker 1: best odds in the lottery. I was sitting there and 1111 00:49:33,200 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 1: saying the same thing. Didn't so I totally understand what 1112 00:49:35,160 --> 00:49:38,800 Speaker 1: you're coming from. But with the competitive inside a building 1113 00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:41,359 Speaker 1: with a football team, that's not And Jason, you can 1114 00:49:41,400 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 1: speak to this as a player, that's not how the 1115 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:46,240 Speaker 1: front office, to coaching staff, the players, and ownership, anyone 1116 00:49:46,320 --> 00:49:47,640 Speaker 1: in the building is going to look at it. So 1117 00:49:48,680 --> 00:49:50,239 Speaker 1: so there are definitely two ways to see it. 1118 00:49:51,080 --> 00:49:54,120 Speaker 3: I get that the team and the organization is going 1119 00:49:54,160 --> 00:49:55,440 Speaker 3: to go out and try to win every game. 1120 00:49:55,560 --> 00:49:55,960 Speaker 1: I get that. 1121 00:49:56,239 --> 00:49:59,439 Speaker 3: It's fine. I'm not suggesting he tanks. I'm just saying 1122 00:49:59,520 --> 00:50:02,920 Speaker 3: I don't care. We're not gonna make We're not gonna 1123 00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:05,439 Speaker 3: make the playoffs. I just want to hire a graphics David. 1124 00:50:05,960 --> 00:50:10,480 Speaker 1: Yes, no, I I totally get it. But at the 1125 00:50:10,520 --> 00:50:13,200 Speaker 1: same time, you do want the younger players on your 1126 00:50:13,239 --> 00:50:16,200 Speaker 1: team showing they're getting better. And if you get that, 1127 00:50:16,440 --> 00:50:19,080 Speaker 1: here's the thing though, if that happens, you're probably gonna 1128 00:50:19,080 --> 00:50:21,360 Speaker 1: get more wins out of it. So I would almost 1129 00:50:22,320 --> 00:50:24,120 Speaker 1: I want my young guys to show they are getting better, 1130 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:26,359 Speaker 1: Like if they win two more games, but it's because 1131 00:50:26,400 --> 00:50:28,279 Speaker 1: Evan Neils turned the corner and he shows them a 1132 00:50:28,320 --> 00:50:31,880 Speaker 1: good offensive tackle, Well guess what give me the wins? 1133 00:50:32,280 --> 00:50:36,920 Speaker 3: You know what I mean? So I have a question 1134 00:50:37,200 --> 00:50:41,239 Speaker 3: for Jonathan, because you know you're you're the athlete you 1135 00:50:41,800 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 3: have played on on these on these fields and the turfs. 1136 00:50:46,760 --> 00:50:51,160 Speaker 3: I'm trying to figure out two things. One is, are 1137 00:50:51,280 --> 00:50:56,440 Speaker 3: the complaints about the turf legit. I've never walked or 1138 00:50:56,600 --> 00:51:00,720 Speaker 3: run on this kind of turf before, Jonathan. And I'm guessing, 1139 00:51:00,960 --> 00:51:04,160 Speaker 3: even if it's just lately, and even as a retired player, 1140 00:51:04,800 --> 00:51:08,440 Speaker 3: you've been on that turf, and you know, like based 1141 00:51:08,520 --> 00:51:11,680 Speaker 3: on your body, like whether it's how it feels, and 1142 00:51:11,960 --> 00:51:15,879 Speaker 3: and you must have an opinion about whether this kind 1143 00:51:15,920 --> 00:51:20,520 Speaker 3: of turf is harmful to the players. And that's the 1144 00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:23,480 Speaker 3: first question. The second question I have I did. I 1145 00:51:23,719 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 3: cannot figure out why the players to take you the 1146 00:51:27,719 --> 00:51:33,160 Speaker 3: offensive lineman over the last several years have have been injury, 1147 00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:37,080 Speaker 3: you know, kind of injury pro I did a random 1148 00:51:37,400 --> 00:51:41,200 Speaker 3: check of players that I just thought in the past 1149 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:45,239 Speaker 3: I remember being super durable and so you know, I 1150 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,879 Speaker 3: looked at David Dial for example. I mean, this guy 1151 00:51:48,000 --> 00:51:53,240 Speaker 3: played the equivalent of like eight seasons without missing a games. 1152 00:51:54,040 --> 00:51:57,600 Speaker 3: George Martin, going back further, my one of my favorite 1153 00:51:57,719 --> 00:52:01,840 Speaker 3: nights ever, George Martin played the equivalent get ready for 1154 00:52:01,960 --> 00:52:07,760 Speaker 3: this as a defensive end he played ten season without 1155 00:52:07,880 --> 00:52:12,360 Speaker 3: missing a game, Like, what is the difference today between 1156 00:52:13,200 --> 00:52:16,480 Speaker 3: a on the turf? Because I did play one on 1157 00:52:16,640 --> 00:52:19,240 Speaker 3: the old Giant Stadium and that's that field. 1158 00:52:19,360 --> 00:52:23,720 Speaker 1: Was like, oh yeah, yeah, absolutely, yeah, that concrete. 1159 00:52:25,239 --> 00:52:25,600 Speaker 2: Carpet. 1160 00:52:27,840 --> 00:52:29,680 Speaker 3: Because I played on a high school team we were 1161 00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:32,200 Speaker 3: very good, so we got to play in the old 1162 00:52:32,239 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 3: Giants stadium. One. But I'm Jonathan, help me out here. 1163 00:52:38,040 --> 00:52:42,640 Speaker 3: What is it today versus then where players are just 1164 00:52:42,800 --> 00:52:45,800 Speaker 3: not as durable as they used to be. And secondly, 1165 00:52:46,080 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 3: please give me some insight about whether this turf issue 1166 00:52:50,160 --> 00:52:51,520 Speaker 3: is a real singer. 1167 00:52:51,920 --> 00:52:52,839 Speaker 1: I appreciate the call. 1168 00:52:53,040 --> 00:52:56,800 Speaker 2: Yeah, I'll talk about the turf first. So, uh, turf, definitely, 1169 00:52:56,920 --> 00:52:59,320 Speaker 2: it's a little bit harder. It's a lot more rigid 1170 00:52:59,719 --> 00:53:01,320 Speaker 2: than grass with dirt underneath it. 1171 00:53:01,520 --> 00:53:04,080 Speaker 1: Hey, what the new stuff is pretty soft though, Like 1172 00:53:04,760 --> 00:53:06,120 Speaker 1: when I go out there and walk and I run 1173 00:53:06,160 --> 00:53:08,640 Speaker 1: on it just when I'm exercising afterwards, like you would 1174 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:11,080 Speaker 1: like areas, and it's like you almost bounce. 1175 00:53:11,560 --> 00:53:14,640 Speaker 2: Yeah, but it's a little more solid. There's not that 1176 00:53:14,800 --> 00:53:17,360 Speaker 2: much give, and you do feel it in your joints 1177 00:53:17,800 --> 00:53:21,000 Speaker 2: that you do feel it, especially like you know consistently 1178 00:53:21,080 --> 00:53:23,360 Speaker 2: and I remember in New Orleans, right, and this is 1179 00:53:23,480 --> 00:53:27,320 Speaker 2: my first Like in Wisconsin, we were all when I 1180 00:53:27,360 --> 00:53:30,600 Speaker 2: went to college, it was all turf, all turf, all 1181 00:53:30,840 --> 00:53:35,120 Speaker 2: indoor practice, no grass. It was all turf. And I 1182 00:53:35,200 --> 00:53:37,200 Speaker 2: got to New Orleans and we had an indoor with turf. 1183 00:53:37,480 --> 00:53:39,600 Speaker 2: Of course, the stadium is turf, but we had practice 1184 00:53:39,600 --> 00:53:41,560 Speaker 2: fields that were grass just like here. Basically, we just 1185 00:53:41,640 --> 00:53:44,919 Speaker 2: like here, and we would be outside and you could 1186 00:53:44,960 --> 00:53:47,600 Speaker 2: hear from the vets, oh man, thank you, outside my knees. 1187 00:53:48,160 --> 00:53:50,719 Speaker 2: And then as I started playing, I'm like, man, I 1188 00:53:50,800 --> 00:53:54,360 Speaker 2: can feel the difference just by the consistent pounding, pounding, 1189 00:53:54,400 --> 00:53:57,440 Speaker 2: because just what you're doing when you're playing football and basketball, 1190 00:53:57,440 --> 00:54:00,360 Speaker 2: any sport you're doing, you're pounding your joints. You're founding 1191 00:54:00,840 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 2: your knees, your low back is constant. Cutting is constant. 1192 00:54:04,280 --> 00:54:07,520 Speaker 2: That and that I think that accumulates over time. But 1193 00:54:08,280 --> 00:54:11,799 Speaker 2: my worst lower body injury happened on grass. I tore 1194 00:54:11,920 --> 00:54:14,960 Speaker 2: my list Frank against the Tennessee Titans on grass. Really, 1195 00:54:15,440 --> 00:54:16,319 Speaker 2: you know, so it's just like. 1196 00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:20,040 Speaker 1: Oldonald broke his leg and towards ACL do you know 1197 00:54:20,040 --> 00:54:21,520 Speaker 1: what that was on? It was on grass. 1198 00:54:22,040 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb was in grass too, you know what I mean, yeah, things, 1199 00:54:24,840 --> 00:54:28,520 Speaker 2: things happened, just football. And as far as the durability thing, 1200 00:54:29,800 --> 00:54:33,400 Speaker 2: I do think that guys back in the day were 1201 00:54:33,400 --> 00:54:35,239 Speaker 2: a little bit more durable than guys now, you know. 1202 00:54:35,360 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 2: And I throw myself in that loop because I wasn't 1203 00:54:37,560 --> 00:54:39,000 Speaker 2: durable when I played my. 1204 00:54:39,040 --> 00:54:40,920 Speaker 1: Theory on the whole thing. Here's my theory on the 1205 00:54:40,920 --> 00:54:42,799 Speaker 1: whole thing, and Howard kind of AGGRESI with, which kind 1206 00:54:42,800 --> 00:54:45,759 Speaker 1: of makes me a little bit scared. But here's my 1207 00:54:45,920 --> 00:54:50,279 Speaker 1: theory on the thing. Guys now train so much more 1208 00:54:50,320 --> 00:54:53,600 Speaker 1: to be high performance athletes than they did before. Right 1209 00:54:54,080 --> 00:54:58,200 Speaker 1: where guys are running faster, jumping higher, they're stronger. I mean, 1210 00:54:58,280 --> 00:55:02,960 Speaker 1: just look at Saquon's legth like guys that look like that. 1211 00:55:03,080 --> 00:55:06,719 Speaker 2: Twenty years ago, fim weights, they're they're they're blowing up 1212 00:55:06,760 --> 00:55:07,840 Speaker 2: their muscles. 1213 00:55:07,560 --> 00:55:11,040 Speaker 1: Right, and I think their tendons and ligaments can handle 1214 00:55:11,200 --> 00:55:15,279 Speaker 1: all those explosive actions. So the guys back then, you know, 1215 00:55:15,360 --> 00:55:17,320 Speaker 1: maybe they're not going quite as fast, maybe they're not 1216 00:55:17,440 --> 00:55:19,400 Speaker 1: exploding the way they did. Now some of the guys did. 1217 00:55:19,440 --> 00:55:21,040 Speaker 2: This isn't I think I think that's fair. 1218 00:55:21,400 --> 00:55:25,440 Speaker 1: And maybe the though the soft and it's not the 1219 00:55:25,520 --> 00:55:28,000 Speaker 1: soft tissue, it's the connecting tissue, the ligaments and the 1220 00:55:28,080 --> 00:55:32,359 Speaker 1: tendons can't handle the extra force from all the high 1221 00:55:32,440 --> 00:55:35,200 Speaker 1: performance training. So while the guys are quote unquote in 1222 00:55:35,360 --> 00:55:39,640 Speaker 1: better shape, that are shaped to perform at a higher level, 1223 00:55:39,719 --> 00:55:42,160 Speaker 1: but maybe not in better shape to perform for a 1224 00:55:42,280 --> 00:55:44,640 Speaker 1: longer period of time and staying healthy. Like even go 1225 00:55:44,760 --> 00:55:47,440 Speaker 1: back back in the day you watch the Olympics, all 1226 00:55:47,480 --> 00:55:51,040 Speaker 1: these guys that are sprinters and stuff, they're always getting hamstrings, 1227 00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:53,840 Speaker 1: They're always getting little nicks and things like that. And 1228 00:55:54,239 --> 00:55:56,640 Speaker 1: that's kind of my theory on why maybe guys run 1229 00:55:56,680 --> 00:55:57,360 Speaker 1: into some worship. 1230 00:55:57,400 --> 00:55:59,520 Speaker 2: I think that's I think that's a fair analysis. You know, 1231 00:55:59,600 --> 00:56:01,680 Speaker 2: because I was a guy who was a weight room guy. 1232 00:56:01,960 --> 00:56:03,520 Speaker 2: I was a guy who I had to be because 1233 00:56:03,520 --> 00:56:05,399 Speaker 2: I was a lighter guy. I'm not a big dude 1234 00:56:05,640 --> 00:56:08,160 Speaker 2: playing linebacker, but I was always in the weight room always, 1235 00:56:08,480 --> 00:56:11,080 Speaker 2: you know, benching, lifting squat and doing all that stuff. 1236 00:56:11,120 --> 00:56:12,919 Speaker 2: And I was hurt my entire career. 1237 00:56:13,040 --> 00:56:15,000 Speaker 1: So the day these giant guys they were playing like 1238 00:56:15,160 --> 00:56:16,640 Speaker 1: pick up basketball. 1239 00:56:16,239 --> 00:56:20,080 Speaker 2: Leagues in the right, smoking cigarettes, it was it was 1240 00:56:20,200 --> 00:56:20,720 Speaker 2: just different. 1241 00:56:20,800 --> 00:56:23,759 Speaker 1: They were they were more like regular guys that were 1242 00:56:23,840 --> 00:56:26,000 Speaker 1: really gifted athletically playing a sport and. 1243 00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:28,880 Speaker 2: Season, but they would lift, they would train, but not 1244 00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:30,400 Speaker 2: like but it was much. 1245 00:56:30,280 --> 00:56:32,360 Speaker 1: More recovery in the offseason I think than you have 1246 00:56:32,600 --> 00:56:34,680 Speaker 1: now to right, they don't kind of go right at 1247 00:56:34,760 --> 00:56:36,160 Speaker 1: it again right away, you know what I mean. 1248 00:56:36,320 --> 00:56:39,120 Speaker 2: I mean because now, like especially you go to a 1249 00:56:39,200 --> 00:56:41,319 Speaker 2: Division one college, like they're going to put you into 1250 00:56:41,440 --> 00:56:44,560 Speaker 2: like a nice weight room program and you're gonna be lifting. 1251 00:56:44,840 --> 00:56:48,000 Speaker 2: They're taping your ankles, they're taping your wrists, they're doing 1252 00:56:48,080 --> 00:56:50,200 Speaker 2: all of that and some of those things. Like you said, 1253 00:56:50,440 --> 00:56:53,439 Speaker 2: it's I think it's to produce a more explosive, more 1254 00:56:53,560 --> 00:56:56,040 Speaker 2: physically gifted athlete. By the way, it does work, but 1255 00:56:56,160 --> 00:56:59,560 Speaker 2: for the long run, I think they might do some 1256 00:56:59,640 --> 00:57:00,279 Speaker 2: research that. 1257 00:57:00,440 --> 00:57:00,600 Speaker 1: Man. 1258 00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:02,840 Speaker 2: I not there's probably some some stuff out there. I 1259 00:57:02,880 --> 00:57:03,480 Speaker 2: don't know about it. 1260 00:57:03,560 --> 00:57:06,760 Speaker 1: But yeah, again that's just my theory. I'm not a doctor, 1261 00:57:07,080 --> 00:57:09,120 Speaker 1: but that's my theory. All right. Final call the show 1262 00:57:09,200 --> 00:57:10,960 Speaker 1: is Maurice and Montclair. Then we got to roll Maurice. 1263 00:57:11,000 --> 00:57:11,279 Speaker 1: What's up? 1264 00:57:11,920 --> 00:57:12,640 Speaker 6: Hey, what's going on? 1265 00:57:12,840 --> 00:57:13,120 Speaker 7: Gentlemen? 1266 00:57:14,239 --> 00:57:15,719 Speaker 1: You only got to call minute your Marie.

Hey, man, 1269 00:57:19,120 --> 00:57:20,920 Speaker 6: let me just run it off by saying it's a 1270 00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:24,280 Speaker 6: it's a mess, gentlemen, I don't like it. If I 1271 00:57:24,360 --> 00:57:25,960 Speaker 6: gotta be quick, I'm gonna just shoot to the point. 1272 00:57:26,000 --> 00:57:28,280 Speaker 6: It's coaching to me, because at some point we got 1273 00:57:28,400 --> 00:57:31,240 Speaker 6: to ask ourselves if we ain't good as far as 1274 00:57:31,320 --> 00:57:33,760 Speaker 6: protecting for a long period of time, who gives it? 1275 00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:36,400 Speaker 6: Don If we paid Daniel all this money and we 1276 00:57:36,480 --> 00:57:38,760 Speaker 6: got these cute weapons, I think the giants got full 1277 00:57:38,800 --> 00:57:41,240 Speaker 6: of themselves and been trying to just do this little 1278 00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,600 Speaker 6: downstill thoh, no, we can hold up. Hey, you come 1279 00:57:43,640 --> 00:57:45,400 Speaker 6: in and block just you come in and block me. 1280 00:57:45,480 --> 00:57:47,200 Speaker 6: I mean we're gonna get a shot down there. No, 1281 00:57:47,680 --> 00:57:50,800 Speaker 6: we got we got Breta. Somebody tell me if Brita 1282 00:57:50,880 --> 00:57:52,880 Speaker 6: is just a piece of trash laying around here. The 1283 00:57:53,080 --> 00:57:55,880 Speaker 6: approach we had with Saquan shouldn't stop with Brita. It 1284 00:57:55,960 --> 00:57:58,959 Speaker 6: didn't stop last year when when Taquan needed a break, 1285 00:57:59,120 --> 00:58:01,920 Speaker 6: we kept the same approach. Breda probably took a wildcat 1286 00:58:02,120 --> 00:58:04,680 Speaker 6: option and everything. So why we can't give him about 1287 00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:07,280 Speaker 6: seventeen twos, Why we can't slow the game down and 1288 00:58:07,360 --> 00:58:10,360 Speaker 6: make easier decisions out there for Daniel and it's looking. 1289 00:58:10,240 --> 00:58:11,360 Speaker 4: Discussy, is Maurice. 1290 00:58:11,520 --> 00:58:14,760 Speaker 1: Maurice, Maurice, I'll tell you why Matt Braid has rushed it. 1291 00:58:15,200 --> 00:58:17,200 Speaker 1: Matt Braid has rushed to thirty times for eighty two 1292 00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:22,520 Speaker 1: yards this year. That is under three That is under 1293 00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:24,840 Speaker 1: three yards per carry. You want to get into the 1294 00:58:24,840 --> 00:58:27,560 Speaker 1: third and long every single time, go run it for 1295 00:58:28,120 --> 00:58:29,240 Speaker 1: one yard on first down. 1296 00:58:29,760 --> 00:58:30,280 Speaker 6: Nah, I've got you. 1297 00:58:30,440 --> 00:58:30,560 Speaker 3: Bo. 1298 00:58:30,720 --> 00:58:32,480 Speaker 6: Right after I said that, John, I said, Yo, why 1299 00:58:32,520 --> 00:58:35,200 Speaker 6: we can't do some easier passing. I mean, like my 1300 00:58:35,680 --> 00:58:38,680 Speaker 6: thing is just the approach. I feel like, Yo, if 1301 00:58:38,720 --> 00:58:41,400 Speaker 6: we got all these issues as coaches, we should be 1302 00:58:41,440 --> 00:58:44,600 Speaker 6: able to identify and adjust. I don't see no adjustments, 1303 00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:45,720 Speaker 6: fellas Naci. 1304 00:58:45,800 --> 00:58:49,280 Speaker 1: Maurice, I disagree. They've they've tried max protecting on play action, 1305 00:58:49,400 --> 00:58:52,560 Speaker 1: they tried holding tight ends, and they've tried emptying the backfield. 1306 00:58:52,680 --> 00:58:55,200 Speaker 2: You know what he's saying. He's not saying, Maurice, you're 1307 00:58:55,240 --> 00:58:58,960 Speaker 2: not seeing different results. You're not seeing different results. That's 1308 00:58:59,000 --> 00:59:01,200 Speaker 2: what you're not saying. I agree with you with that, 1309 00:59:01,360 --> 00:59:03,560 Speaker 2: and that's what they are trying to do different things. 1310 00:59:04,120 --> 00:59:06,560 Speaker 2: Nothing it's working quite yet, that's what you're saying. 1311 00:59:07,120 --> 00:59:07,520 Speaker 8: I gotcha. 1312 00:59:07,560 --> 00:59:11,560 Speaker 6: I want to be quick down and I love with y'all. Okay, okay, 1313 00:59:11,640 --> 00:59:16,280 Speaker 6: let me say this then. My thing with today's NFL, Yo, 1314 00:59:16,680 --> 00:59:20,480 Speaker 6: it's like I grew up watching the sophisticated quarterback who 1315 00:59:20,640 --> 00:59:23,360 Speaker 6: also was the coach to the extension on the field. 1316 00:59:23,680 --> 00:59:27,760 Speaker 6: Nowadays everything has gotten changed, gentlemen. It's like, no, here, 1317 00:59:28,000 --> 00:59:30,600 Speaker 6: we'll give you the call. Here, run our system. We'll 1318 00:59:30,640 --> 00:59:32,760 Speaker 6: put you in the right situation. Don't worry about it. 1319 00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:35,440 Speaker 6: Just throw it nice yet good spiral. Okay, that's what 1320 00:59:35,560 --> 00:59:35,880 Speaker 6: we like. 1321 00:59:36,360 --> 00:59:36,520 Speaker 3: Nah. 1322 00:59:36,680 --> 00:59:38,520 Speaker 6: Let Daniel give them some time to get to that 1323 00:59:38,680 --> 00:59:41,440 Speaker 6: line while the play clock is still generous. And I've 1324 00:59:41,480 --> 00:59:43,560 Speaker 6: seen Daniel get in the zone and do this before. 1325 00:59:43,880 --> 00:59:45,800 Speaker 6: So it's just like, I don't know, man, let me 1326 00:59:45,840 --> 00:59:48,960 Speaker 6: ask this JC. You a linebacker, you know, when you 1327 00:59:49,120 --> 00:59:50,960 Speaker 6: coming after somebody, I got two things for you know, 1328 00:59:51,000 --> 00:59:55,440 Speaker 6: when you're coming after somebody, when you blitch? Mathematically scratching 1329 00:59:55,480 --> 00:59:58,640 Speaker 6: my head right now, shouldn't somebody be open? Like when 1330 00:59:58,640 --> 01:00:01,439 Speaker 6: they blitch, they just go and get them. It's like, damn, son, 1331 01:00:01,600 --> 01:00:04,440 Speaker 6: somebody's out there, but I don't see the all twenty twos. 1332 01:00:04,440 --> 01:00:06,280 Speaker 6: I don't get to see what's going on. But it's 1333 01:00:06,360 --> 01:00:08,479 Speaker 6: just like, yo, what the you know what I'm saying, 1334 01:00:09,280 --> 01:00:11,320 Speaker 6: and here's the here's the second thing, JC, y'all got 1335 01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:13,640 Speaker 6: two for you. Second thing is you've been a player. 1336 01:00:13,960 --> 01:00:16,400 Speaker 6: You know the mental side of it. I think people 1337 01:00:16,560 --> 01:00:19,120 Speaker 6: approach us and say, man, these guys this week talking 1338 01:00:19,200 --> 01:00:21,360 Speaker 6: up front, and they might they might round that out 1339 01:00:21,400 --> 01:00:23,360 Speaker 6: to a collective and say, yeah, they're just not that good. 1340 01:00:23,640 --> 01:00:26,440 Speaker 6: But up front, we need some dogs, bro, we need 1341 01:00:26,800 --> 01:00:29,120 Speaker 6: like I mean, take a page out of silly book. 1342 01:00:29,160 --> 01:00:30,920 Speaker 6: If it's a guy that hate been through an off 1343 01:00:30,960 --> 01:00:33,960 Speaker 6: field issue, but he's extremely talented, New York Giants, go 1344 01:00:34,080 --> 01:00:35,680 Speaker 6: get him and clean him up. Because the Giants have 1345 01:00:35,760 --> 01:00:38,280 Speaker 6: always stayed away from certain people. But it's like, at 1346 01:00:38,320 --> 01:00:40,720 Speaker 6: this point, Sellers, we need some dogs. I'm tired of 1347 01:00:40,760 --> 01:00:43,840 Speaker 6: seeing these guys. Last thing, if somebody is beating me 1348 01:00:44,000 --> 01:00:47,360 Speaker 6: this bad and I have to protect my quarterback, Fellers, 1349 01:00:47,680 --> 01:00:49,760 Speaker 6: the rules is going out the window. I'm holding on 1350 01:00:49,880 --> 01:00:51,840 Speaker 6: every play because you're not going to embarrass me like that. 1351 01:00:52,840 --> 01:00:53,680 Speaker 6: Embarrassing like that. 1352 01:00:55,120 --> 01:00:57,440 Speaker 1: Good stuff to appreciate, thanks for calling it good stuff. 1353 01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:01,280 Speaker 2: So first off, he's said, if you add a blitzer in, 1354 01:01:02,360 --> 01:01:05,080 Speaker 2: shouldn't be a guy open, No, because there's only five 1355 01:01:05,200 --> 01:01:08,080 Speaker 2: LGB receivers that can run down the field and you 1356 01:01:08,200 --> 01:01:13,480 Speaker 2: could have upwards to seven defensive backs or including linebackers 1357 01:01:13,520 --> 01:01:15,919 Speaker 2: into that in coverage. So no, that's not always the case. 1358 01:01:16,720 --> 01:01:19,480 Speaker 2: And yes, I agree the Giants do need dogs. They do, 1359 01:01:20,240 --> 01:01:23,240 Speaker 2: and I think they do have some, especially on the 1360 01:01:23,280 --> 01:01:28,080 Speaker 2: offensive line. They're not healthy, you know. And I agree 1361 01:01:28,120 --> 01:01:31,240 Speaker 2: with what he said, Like I always talk about like 1362 01:01:31,360 --> 01:01:36,040 Speaker 2: that mentality, right, that establishing that physical dominance, like doing 1363 01:01:36,120 --> 01:01:39,160 Speaker 2: a little bit extra, maybe getting a little which Madelin's 1364 01:01:39,200 --> 01:01:41,600 Speaker 2: on right now, being a little bit violent, you know, 1365 01:01:41,920 --> 01:01:45,640 Speaker 2: maybe getting that one penalty because you're doing too much, 1366 01:01:45,960 --> 01:01:49,120 Speaker 2: but you're fighting, and like who's that That was on 1367 01:01:49,160 --> 01:01:52,360 Speaker 2: the Cardinals. The Giants played them, and they played the Commanders, 1368 01:01:52,400 --> 01:01:54,479 Speaker 2: I believed the week before, and they took a shot 1369 01:01:54,560 --> 01:01:57,640 Speaker 2: on Howell, right, that was borderline. But at the same time, 1370 01:01:57,680 --> 01:02:00,360 Speaker 2: it's like that fired everybody up on defense. I'm not 1371 01:02:00,480 --> 01:02:03,560 Speaker 2: saying do that, but like that shows me that you're 1372 01:02:03,640 --> 01:02:07,080 Speaker 2: trying to be as physical as you possibly can. You're 1373 01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:09,400 Speaker 2: not going to be soft, and you'll rather take that 1374 01:02:09,480 --> 01:02:11,120 Speaker 2: penalty and then allow that dude to run you over. 1375 01:02:11,680 --> 01:02:14,240 Speaker 2: Like little stuff like that. I feel like like that's 1376 01:02:14,280 --> 01:02:16,720 Speaker 2: what he's kind of talking about. That dog mentality like 1377 01:02:16,800 --> 01:02:18,680 Speaker 2: I don't want team I don't want our team getting penalties. 1378 01:02:19,120 --> 01:02:21,280 Speaker 2: We can't afford to have penalties on top of the 1379 01:02:21,360 --> 01:02:23,880 Speaker 2: plays that we're giving up. But to see the fight, 1380 01:02:24,200 --> 01:02:27,840 Speaker 2: to see that dog mentality like I would like to 1381 01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:30,320 Speaker 2: see that more and nick Giants just haven't really showed 1382 01:02:30,360 --> 01:02:34,000 Speaker 2: that consistently at times, yes, but not consistently. 1383 01:02:34,120 --> 01:02:36,840 Speaker 1: JC, good stuff, MHM.
