Big plays, game changing things, 7 00:00:28,320 --> 00:00:32,440 Speaker 1: controversial calls, things that happen, pregame drama, off the field, 8 00:00:33,560 --> 00:00:37,040 Speaker 1: field goals, you name it, we got it. So we're 9 00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:38,680 Speaker 1: gonna talk about the game. We're gonna try not to 10 00:00:38,720 --> 00:00:40,440 Speaker 1: go too long because I'm sure you guys do want 11 00:00:40,440 --> 00:00:41,720 Speaker 1: to get in and talk to us again at two 12 00:00:42,720 --> 00:00:45,159 Speaker 1: five one three. But Dave, I want to get the 13 00:00:45,200 --> 00:00:47,840 Speaker 1: elephant in the room out of the way early because 14 00:00:47,840 --> 00:00:49,360 Speaker 1: I'm sure we're gonna get a lot of fans that 15 00:00:49,360 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: are gonna want to call and talk about it as 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,280 Speaker 1: I've got a lot of tweets about it, and that's 17 00:00:53,280 --> 00:00:57,920 Speaker 1: the officiating. So let me let me just start. Yeah, 18 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,960 Speaker 1: let me start with this. And Pat Shermer always says this, 19 00:01:01,040 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: there's no point in complaining about the officials because you 20 00:01:03,640 --> 00:01:06,520 Speaker 1: can't control it and it turns into an excuse. And 21 00:01:06,520 --> 00:01:10,720 Speaker 1: in that I completely agree that being said, and I'm 22 00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:12,760 Speaker 1: not gonna do a whole call on why the referee stink. 23 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:14,240 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna do that. We're not doing a whole 24 00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:18,280 Speaker 1: show on that. Okay, But for the second consecutive week now, 25 00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: there were some calls that were to be generous, extremely questionable. 26 00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:28,520 Speaker 1: That that when you can say that that went against 27 00:01:28,520 --> 00:01:31,240 Speaker 1: the Giants, that had a real impact on the game, 28 00:01:31,520 --> 00:01:34,680 Speaker 1: and the ones that bothered me the most, I don't 29 00:01:34,680 --> 00:01:37,560 Speaker 1: even narrow down the one. The one that bothered me 30 00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:42,360 Speaker 1: the most was the Landing Collins unnecessary roughness that their 31 00:01:42,400 --> 00:01:47,200 Speaker 1: helmets happened to brush sure his back was to the receiver. 32 00:01:47,400 --> 00:01:50,520 Speaker 1: They both were going for the ball, and at that point, 33 00:01:50,600 --> 00:01:53,160 Speaker 1: when the ball is in the year, both people are 34 00:01:53,240 --> 00:01:56,600 Speaker 1: the receiver at that point, that's correct. That's that's the 35 00:01:56,760 --> 00:01:59,360 Speaker 1: That's my biggest issue about all of this is just 36 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:04,160 Speaker 1: the consistency of the calls, because there's absolutely no consistency. 37 00:02:04,560 --> 00:02:06,280 Speaker 1: In one game it's a roughing the pastor, in the 38 00:02:06,280 --> 00:02:09,160 Speaker 1: next game it's fine. Or for instance, in one game 39 00:02:09,200 --> 00:02:12,360 Speaker 1: it's roughing the pastor and something that isn't that was 40 00:02:12,400 --> 00:02:14,320 Speaker 1: not called, was roughing the pastor. If we want to 41 00:02:14,320 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: go back to the Packers Redskins game. But this is 42 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,400 Speaker 1: the thing about all of these calls is that I 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,960 Speaker 1: understand that the officials have a tough job to do, 44 00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:27,200 Speaker 1: and I understand that it's at a split instant and 45 00:02:27,320 --> 00:02:29,640 Speaker 1: your eyes have to be the one that recognized things. 46 00:02:30,160 --> 00:02:33,079 Speaker 1: But when you have a critical call like the one 47 00:02:33,080 --> 00:02:35,560 Speaker 1: that they had on Landon Collins, you've got to go 48 00:02:35,600 --> 00:02:37,480 Speaker 1: back and review it and look at it to make 49 00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,959 Speaker 1: sure that you guys were right on the call. Let's 50 00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,600 Speaker 1: go back to how the one drive stopped for the Giants. 51 00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:47,640 Speaker 1: Julius Peppers grabs se Kwon Barkley's face mask grabs it. 52 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:50,520 Speaker 1: You see his finger in the face mask. Oh, well 53 00:02:50,560 --> 00:02:53,240 Speaker 1: it was incidental. It was into the collar. It's still 54 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:55,720 Speaker 1: hit him in the face mask. He still grabbed him 55 00:02:55,880 --> 00:02:58,640 Speaker 1: and you could see se Kwan's head turn. How do 56 00:02:58,720 --> 00:03:01,600 Speaker 1: you pick up that flag? I understand the rule used 57 00:03:01,600 --> 00:03:03,919 Speaker 1: to be up until about four years ago. I believe 58 00:03:04,040 --> 00:03:05,560 Speaker 1: is when it was changed. Yeah, that that would have 59 00:03:05,560 --> 00:03:09,679 Speaker 1: been the five yard face mask and regardless, yeah, but regardless, 60 00:03:10,080 --> 00:03:12,280 Speaker 1: you know the rule used to be up until four 61 00:03:12,360 --> 00:03:14,760 Speaker 1: years ago. In the trench and as an offensive lineman 62 00:03:14,760 --> 00:03:16,880 Speaker 1: and a d lineman, if you were to slide and 63 00:03:16,919 --> 00:03:19,360 Speaker 1: get your hands into the defender's face and on his 64 00:03:19,440 --> 00:03:21,640 Speaker 1: face mask. If you pulled your hand out of it 65 00:03:21,680 --> 00:03:24,400 Speaker 1: and didn't keep it up there, they wouldn't throw a flag. 66 00:03:24,760 --> 00:03:27,919 Speaker 1: But four years ago they changed it. The minute that 67 00:03:28,000 --> 00:03:31,840 Speaker 1: your hands touched that face mask, that's a flag, regardless 68 00:03:31,840 --> 00:03:33,920 Speaker 1: of whether it was incidental or not. There was the 69 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:37,640 Speaker 1: same exact thing on that play. Yeah, and look, that 70 00:03:37,720 --> 00:03:39,640 Speaker 1: was a play that would didn't bother me quite as much. 71 00:03:39,680 --> 00:03:41,200 Speaker 1: You had the McCaffrey want at the end of the 72 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:43,960 Speaker 1: game where it was to me not clear that he 73 00:03:44,040 --> 00:03:46,560 Speaker 1: hit the first down line. It was very close. There 74 00:03:46,560 --> 00:03:48,960 Speaker 1: was a report out there that the league office actually 75 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:51,600 Speaker 1: did look at that and they said he made it. 76 00:03:51,880 --> 00:03:54,880 Speaker 1: I'm not sure you can't say that either. Can't really 77 00:03:54,920 --> 00:03:57,160 Speaker 1: go by the yellow line when you're sitting there watched 78 00:03:57,880 --> 00:03:59,960 Speaker 1: and once again it does come down to the officials. 79 00:04:00,240 --> 00:04:02,440 Speaker 1: He was trying to look at the football. But even 80 00:04:02,520 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: in that instance, even if they didn't go back, even 81 00:04:04,760 --> 00:04:07,800 Speaker 1: if they didn't review it, we didn't have any timeouts 82 00:04:07,840 --> 00:04:09,800 Speaker 1: to challenge it anyway. Yeah, and and and there were 83 00:04:09,840 --> 00:04:12,320 Speaker 1: still Remember that is going to be a booth review 84 00:04:12,320 --> 00:04:15,240 Speaker 1: because it's under two minutes so, and they still could 85 00:04:15,280 --> 00:04:16,640 Speaker 1: have gone on the field to try to kick the 86 00:04:16,640 --> 00:04:19,760 Speaker 1: field goal. So to me, that wasn't as critical. Love 87 00:04:19,760 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: the deal, but it was. It was still a deal. 88 00:04:21,600 --> 00:04:23,800 Speaker 1: I also thought I saw in a legal substitution on 89 00:04:23,880 --> 00:04:26,480 Speaker 1: the Panthers at the end of the game um on 90 00:04:26,480 --> 00:04:28,320 Speaker 1: on one of their final plays, So that was another 91 00:04:28,720 --> 00:04:31,520 Speaker 1: potential thing. So look, guys, we know the issues that 92 00:04:31,640 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: to carry win on necessary roughness. That was one where 93 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,120 Speaker 1: I guess the rules he got there late. Is that 94 00:04:37,279 --> 00:04:41,200 Speaker 1: why it was called. I mean, I guess that's the 95 00:04:41,240 --> 00:04:43,240 Speaker 1: only answer that you can come up. I didn't think 96 00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,599 Speaker 1: he did. There could have been an intentional grounding on 97 00:04:45,680 --> 00:04:47,080 Speaker 1: Cam Newton at the end of the game. I thought 98 00:04:47,080 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 1: that was a potential call anyway, And and I think 99 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:50,760 Speaker 1: this is the last thing that I'm gonna throw out 100 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: in regards to the officiating. You know, and to think 101 00:04:54,279 --> 00:04:57,760 Speaker 1: that before this season we were all worried about lowering 102 00:04:57,800 --> 00:05:00,240 Speaker 1: the helmet, I mean, think about it. Really, it was 103 00:05:00,279 --> 00:05:02,359 Speaker 1: the biggest thing that we're all talking about. You know, 104 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:06,320 Speaker 1: people are running backs or linebackers lowing their helmet. That's 105 00:05:06,320 --> 00:05:08,720 Speaker 1: not even getting called anymore by running back. So I mean, 106 00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:12,039 Speaker 1: we this completely flipped to a point now that we're 107 00:05:12,080 --> 00:05:15,400 Speaker 1: at that number one. As again we talk about as 108 00:05:15,440 --> 00:05:17,880 Speaker 1: a fan and as a viewer of the game, your 109 00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:22,040 Speaker 1: pure instant reaction and emotion doesn't come out right away 110 00:05:22,040 --> 00:05:24,320 Speaker 1: because you're like, okay, big catch, is there a flag? 111 00:05:24,400 --> 00:05:26,400 Speaker 1: Is there anything? Is there gonna be a review? Okay, 112 00:05:26,400 --> 00:05:28,880 Speaker 1: it stands all right, we got the first down. It 113 00:05:28,960 --> 00:05:32,039 Speaker 1: takes away that natural enthusiasm that you have in the game. 114 00:05:32,360 --> 00:05:36,239 Speaker 1: And also, once again, the biggest thing is just consistency. 115 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,880 Speaker 1: That's all we ask for, and that things are clearly 116 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,479 Speaker 1: defined so that when you see it, well, if you 117 00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,200 Speaker 1: go to to the rule book Byeline guideline section four 118 00:05:46,680 --> 00:05:49,919 Speaker 1: dash two, it says, and it shouldn't come down to 119 00:05:50,040 --> 00:05:52,479 Speaker 1: that that you have to get that critical to know 120 00:05:52,520 --> 00:05:54,400 Speaker 1: whether a place stands or not. It has to be 121 00:05:55,040 --> 00:05:58,000 Speaker 1: consistently called the same things, are the same penalties and 122 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:00,320 Speaker 1: game togain anyway, all right. So that that's that's the 123 00:06:00,320 --> 00:06:03,440 Speaker 1: appreciating stuff. And here's the beauty of it, folks. And 124 00:06:03,440 --> 00:06:05,159 Speaker 1: this is why I don't want to spend time taking 125 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,560 Speaker 1: calls all show long about the officiating. The Giants should 126 00:06:07,560 --> 00:06:10,680 Speaker 1: have won this game anyway if they didn't shoot themselves 127 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:12,520 Speaker 1: in the foot of bajillion times and Dave to me, 128 00:06:13,720 --> 00:06:17,400 Speaker 1: this came down to some very fundamental things for the Giants. Okay, 129 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:21,360 Speaker 1: they lost the turnover battle. Two interceptions reach quarterback, and 130 00:06:21,400 --> 00:06:23,880 Speaker 1: the one that gave the Giants three gave the Panthers 131 00:06:23,880 --> 00:06:28,000 Speaker 1: a touchdown difference in the game. Penalties that extended Panthers 132 00:06:28,080 --> 00:06:31,800 Speaker 1: drives on two separate occasions, one on Korean Martin's special teams. 133 00:06:31,839 --> 00:06:35,080 Speaker 1: You have the b W web on sportsmanlike conduct, so 134 00:06:35,320 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: you have those penalties. That's a problem. You would drop 135 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 1: passes in the first half, Otto Beckham Jr. On fourth down. Um, 136 00:06:41,120 --> 00:06:43,000 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna call the plane the end zone a drop, 137 00:06:43,000 --> 00:06:44,520 Speaker 1: though I think he could have if he finished his 138 00:06:44,600 --> 00:06:45,960 Speaker 1: route better. He never would had to jump for the 139 00:06:46,000 --> 00:06:47,960 Speaker 1: ball to begin with. He would have caught the ball 140 00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 1: over his shoulder going towards the end line. Why he 141 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:52,000 Speaker 1: stopped in his right I don't know. Um, you're the 142 00:06:52,040 --> 00:06:54,800 Speaker 1: Russell Shepard drop in the first half. Um. One of 143 00:06:54,839 --> 00:06:57,560 Speaker 1: the things you had first drive for the Panthers miss tackles. 144 00:06:58,320 --> 00:07:01,320 Speaker 1: It was just disgusting. Is the most amount of miss 145 00:07:01,360 --> 00:07:03,799 Speaker 1: tackles in the drive I've seen by a Giant's defense 146 00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:07,280 Speaker 1: in over ten years. Absolutely, and the guys, those are 147 00:07:07,400 --> 00:07:13,560 Speaker 1: fundamental things, catching the football, penalties, tackling, how about this 148 00:07:13,680 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 1: alignment assignment? Yes, just the basic fundamentals of the game. 149 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:19,040 Speaker 1: And I know that you were on the on the 150 00:07:20,160 --> 00:07:22,720 Speaker 1: flight home, sitting there breaking down the film watching it. 151 00:07:23,000 --> 00:07:25,520 Speaker 1: I watched it again this morning and when you go 152 00:07:25,600 --> 00:07:28,000 Speaker 1: back and I know that this is the biggest cliche 153 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:30,200 Speaker 1: when you sit there and watch games. Oh well, it 154 00:07:30,280 --> 00:07:32,240 Speaker 1: was two or three plays that could have changed the 155 00:07:32,280 --> 00:07:34,840 Speaker 1: difference and made the difference in the football game. It 156 00:07:35,080 --> 00:07:37,560 Speaker 1: was because when you're sitting there and you see the 157 00:07:37,560 --> 00:07:40,800 Speaker 1: way that the Giants played in the second half, revitalized, 158 00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:44,160 Speaker 1: rejuvenated and able to handle the adversity on the road, 159 00:07:44,680 --> 00:07:47,080 Speaker 1: those are all things. And those were all plays and 160 00:07:47,160 --> 00:07:49,840 Speaker 1: opportunities that they could have had in the first half, 161 00:07:49,920 --> 00:07:52,600 Speaker 1: but the things that they did to self inflict themselves 162 00:07:52,840 --> 00:07:57,640 Speaker 1: didn't allow those opportunities to happen. Penalties, missed assignments, breakdowns 163 00:07:57,640 --> 00:08:00,200 Speaker 1: and tackles. Those are things when you're on the old 164 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:03,920 Speaker 1: places playing up a good team like the Panthers, that 165 00:08:04,040 --> 00:08:06,360 Speaker 1: you can't get away with on the road. You can't 166 00:08:06,360 --> 00:08:09,000 Speaker 1: get away with settling for three and not scoring touchdowns 167 00:08:09,000 --> 00:08:11,000 Speaker 1: in the red zone. And you mentioned two other issues 168 00:08:11,040 --> 00:08:13,520 Speaker 1: that they had, and one was missed assignments. And there 169 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: were two huge plays in the game, Christian McCaffrey's fourth 170 00:08:16,840 --> 00:08:20,280 Speaker 1: quarter touchdown on the swing pass. Nobody covered him And 171 00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:22,920 Speaker 1: I looked at the tape, Dave a few times. I 172 00:08:22,920 --> 00:08:25,680 Speaker 1: couldn't even figure out who was supposed to cover. That's 173 00:08:25,720 --> 00:08:29,480 Speaker 1: how far away everybody was. Yeah, yeah, I mean it's 174 00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:31,320 Speaker 1: those are the things that when you sit there and 175 00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:34,040 Speaker 1: you know, going into this game they're using him for 176 00:08:34,080 --> 00:08:36,480 Speaker 1: his versatility. He's gonna line up all over the field 177 00:08:36,760 --> 00:08:39,679 Speaker 1: and he is their big play lynch Pin, how do 178 00:08:39,679 --> 00:08:41,839 Speaker 1: you not advice on him and communicate to one another 179 00:08:42,360 --> 00:08:45,559 Speaker 1: all the basic fundamentals that number one at this point 180 00:08:45,559 --> 00:08:48,120 Speaker 1: in the season now going into week six, that you 181 00:08:48,160 --> 00:08:51,160 Speaker 1: should have hammered out. But also those are just simple 182 00:08:51,280 --> 00:08:54,040 Speaker 1: things that as a football player that once again it 183 00:08:54,080 --> 00:08:58,520 Speaker 1: comes down to fundamentals and then another missed assignment or again, 184 00:08:58,559 --> 00:09:00,600 Speaker 1: I'm not sure who made this miss stake, David. Maybe 185 00:09:00,600 --> 00:09:02,319 Speaker 1: he's an offensive player, you can tell me, but he's 186 00:09:02,360 --> 00:09:05,120 Speaker 1: watching the film. All I know is that Eli Manning 187 00:09:05,160 --> 00:09:07,480 Speaker 1: and Sterling Shepherd weren't on the same page an Eli 188 00:09:07,559 --> 00:09:11,000 Speaker 1: second interception. ELI thought Shepherd was gonna go right up 189 00:09:11,040 --> 00:09:14,000 Speaker 1: the field, kind of right up the numbers, and Shepherd 190 00:09:14,080 --> 00:09:16,400 Speaker 1: kind of settled into that little hole near the sideline 191 00:09:16,440 --> 00:09:19,320 Speaker 1: between the safety and corner. I don't know who's right 192 00:09:19,400 --> 00:09:21,080 Speaker 1: on that. All I know is that the two guys 193 00:09:21,559 --> 00:09:23,880 Speaker 1: weren't on the same page and that cost the Giants 194 00:09:23,880 --> 00:09:25,559 Speaker 1: a drive and he gave the Panthers a football in 195 00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:28,080 Speaker 1: their own territory. And once again, it doesn't matter who's right. 196 00:09:28,200 --> 00:09:30,200 Speaker 1: Everybody has their fingerprint on And then it was an 197 00:09:30,240 --> 00:09:32,679 Speaker 1: interception at a crucial time in the football game. So 198 00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: these are things like we said that the second half 199 00:09:36,040 --> 00:09:39,000 Speaker 1: was a great sign and a positive sign for anybody, 200 00:09:39,000 --> 00:09:43,640 Speaker 1: because any Giants fan, any passionate Giant who bleeds bleue 201 00:09:43,760 --> 00:09:46,160 Speaker 1: like you and I both do, all you wanted to 202 00:09:46,200 --> 00:09:49,000 Speaker 1: see was progress in that next step and this team 203 00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:51,080 Speaker 1: being able to do those things in the second half 204 00:09:51,080 --> 00:09:55,520 Speaker 1: were great. But it's not about being close. It's about winning, 205 00:09:55,520 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 1: and that's what they need to get down to. They 206 00:09:57,440 --> 00:09:59,719 Speaker 1: need to get down to winning football games. And with 207 00:09:59,760 --> 00:10:02,880 Speaker 1: this week week, with the Eagles coming in on Thursday night, 208 00:10:03,360 --> 00:10:06,280 Speaker 1: this is a great time for them to just snap 209 00:10:06,280 --> 00:10:10,600 Speaker 1: out of this regroup, re energize, don't don't forget the past. 210 00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,480 Speaker 1: Whenever you lose, don't lose the lesson. Each lesson teaches 211 00:10:13,480 --> 00:10:17,200 Speaker 1: you something about that game, whether it's technique, fundamentally yourself 212 00:10:17,520 --> 00:10:20,160 Speaker 1: or as a unit. Learn those lessons and move forward 213 00:10:20,160 --> 00:10:23,160 Speaker 1: and get ready to grind because we know that this 214 00:10:23,200 --> 00:10:26,160 Speaker 1: game right now, up against the Eagles, this is gonna 215 00:10:26,200 --> 00:10:30,760 Speaker 1: be the determination for the Giant season. You're a wild 216 00:10:30,840 --> 00:10:32,560 Speaker 1: card team is not going to be coming out of 217 00:10:32,559 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: the NFC and the Giants are lucky enough that they're 218 00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:37,480 Speaker 1: even alive now because the rest of the NFC East 219 00:10:37,480 --> 00:10:39,640 Speaker 1: has struggled so much. I mean, let's let's be honest. 220 00:10:39,679 --> 00:10:42,040 Speaker 1: The way that it's going right now, you could see 221 00:10:42,040 --> 00:10:45,400 Speaker 1: an NFC East team winning the division at either nine 222 00:10:45,480 --> 00:10:48,000 Speaker 1: and seven, eight and eight, and I'd still be surprised 223 00:10:48,559 --> 00:10:52,560 Speaker 1: seven at so without a doubt. So that means that 224 00:10:52,679 --> 00:10:55,800 Speaker 1: right now, with this opportunity that the season has not closed. 225 00:10:56,080 --> 00:10:58,480 Speaker 1: You have a Philadelphia team coming off of a loss 226 00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:02,240 Speaker 1: at home against the VIC two straight losses two weeks ago. 227 00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,360 Speaker 1: They are injured, they've got guys out. Jason Peters was 228 00:11:05,360 --> 00:11:07,640 Speaker 1: out of the game, you could see that their offense 229 00:11:07,720 --> 00:11:10,440 Speaker 1: still isn't in sync yet. One of the things I 230 00:11:10,440 --> 00:11:13,400 Speaker 1: think that they're gonna do is not only utilize el 231 00:11:13,440 --> 00:11:15,199 Speaker 1: Shan Jeffrey on the outside, but you know that they're 232 00:11:15,200 --> 00:11:17,400 Speaker 1: going to try to utilize zach Ertz and Dallas got 233 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:19,920 Speaker 1: at their tight ends in this football game. So this 234 00:11:20,000 --> 00:11:23,160 Speaker 1: is a critical match for the Giants to regroup, refresh 235 00:11:23,200 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: out of things, and snap right back into the football 236 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:27,880 Speaker 1: game because it's gonna be here quick on Thursday. A 237 00:11:27,920 --> 00:11:30,440 Speaker 1: couple of things in the game. Dave quarterback play manning 238 00:11:30,480 --> 00:11:32,880 Speaker 1: through some great passes. A couple of nice ones down 239 00:11:32,880 --> 00:11:34,520 Speaker 1: the field, the one to beck H for the touchdown, 240 00:11:34,920 --> 00:11:36,720 Speaker 1: the one the Russell Sheppard. And I'm still not sure 241 00:11:36,760 --> 00:11:39,319 Speaker 1: why he fell down after he caught that pass because 242 00:11:39,320 --> 00:11:41,800 Speaker 1: it was right right there. Um, he should have just 243 00:11:41,840 --> 00:11:45,160 Speaker 1: caught it and kept running. Um. His first interception, that's 244 00:11:45,160 --> 00:11:48,559 Speaker 1: on Eli, Mike Well, Mike Adams. And if you look 245 00:11:48,559 --> 00:11:51,080 Speaker 1: at the tape, Dave was in that b gap faking 246 00:11:51,080 --> 00:11:53,800 Speaker 1: a blitz and as soon as Eli took that snap, 247 00:11:53,960 --> 00:11:57,360 Speaker 1: he thought Adams was coming. Adams dropped right back into 248 00:11:57,360 --> 00:12:00,400 Speaker 1: that passingly. Eli had no idea that he was still 249 00:12:00,440 --> 00:12:03,040 Speaker 1: in coverage on that play and he threw it, and 250 00:12:03,040 --> 00:12:05,920 Speaker 1: he threw it right to Adam Man from Patterson still balling. 251 00:12:06,200 --> 00:12:08,920 Speaker 1: He is absolutely um. The other thing that we talked about, 252 00:12:08,960 --> 00:12:10,520 Speaker 1: you know, this is the last thing that I'll say 253 00:12:10,520 --> 00:12:13,760 Speaker 1: about the Carolina game. You know, offensively, we talked about 254 00:12:14,200 --> 00:12:17,360 Speaker 1: just staying in sink, staying in rhythm, and just not 255 00:12:17,640 --> 00:12:21,959 Speaker 1: allowing yourself to have constant negative plays and drives because 256 00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:24,400 Speaker 1: we know what they do to this football team offensively, 257 00:12:24,440 --> 00:12:26,720 Speaker 1: because this isn't a group that can overcome those things. 258 00:12:27,160 --> 00:12:31,440 Speaker 1: When you look at the third down percentage zero percent, 259 00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:34,679 Speaker 1: John Schmilk, they were over for seven on third down, 260 00:12:35,000 --> 00:12:37,400 Speaker 1: and there's a reason when you're on the road up 261 00:12:37,440 --> 00:12:41,880 Speaker 1: against the Carolina Panthers. Yes, when your third downs the 262 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:45,760 Speaker 1: seven are plus eight plus twelve, but then that was 263 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,560 Speaker 1: offset by the penalty by the fall start by Shepard. 264 00:12:48,840 --> 00:12:51,040 Speaker 1: So now you have a third and seventeen, a third 265 00:12:51,040 --> 00:12:53,160 Speaker 1: and four team, a third and six, a third and five. 266 00:12:53,200 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: Those are manageables, but then a third and ten and 267 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:58,520 Speaker 1: another third and four team. That's not a winning recipe 268 00:12:58,600 --> 00:13:01,120 Speaker 1: for an offensive line that's still trying. And Dave, do 269 00:13:01,200 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 1: you know why they were in such long third downs. Well, 270 00:13:03,840 --> 00:13:06,240 Speaker 1: it's pretty simple and this will be my last major 271 00:13:06,240 --> 00:13:07,680 Speaker 1: put on the panther the game before he get to 272 00:13:07,679 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: your phone calls. Sa Koon Barkley finished your game with 273 00:13:10,200 --> 00:13:14,480 Speaker 1: fifteen rushes for forty eight yards in the first half, 274 00:13:14,920 --> 00:13:17,160 Speaker 1: Sae kwon Barkley to run for twenty yards. In the 275 00:13:17,200 --> 00:13:19,840 Speaker 1: second half, Sae Kwon Barkley had a run for thirty yards, 276 00:13:19,840 --> 00:13:22,080 Speaker 1: so he had two runs for fifty yards. Yet he 277 00:13:22,120 --> 00:13:25,600 Speaker 1: finished with fifteen carries for forty eight which means on 278 00:13:25,679 --> 00:13:29,720 Speaker 1: his other thirteen carries, David Deal, he ran for negative 279 00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:33,240 Speaker 1: two yards. You simply have to be more consistent. He 280 00:13:33,320 --> 00:13:36,160 Speaker 1: had twelve rushes that went for two or fewer yards, 281 00:13:36,200 --> 00:13:39,400 Speaker 1: ten rushes that went for one or fewer yards. You 282 00:13:39,440 --> 00:13:42,679 Speaker 1: cannot have a functioning offense. And the only reason to 283 00:13:42,760 --> 00:13:44,079 Speaker 1: still worked in this game is he was They made 284 00:13:44,080 --> 00:13:46,199 Speaker 1: some big plays down the field at which they haven't 285 00:13:46,240 --> 00:13:48,839 Speaker 1: done before. You cannot function as an offense when you're 286 00:13:48,880 --> 00:13:53,160 Speaker 1: basically averaging less than a yard per carry on all 287 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,520 Speaker 1: but two of your carries. The big runs are great, 288 00:13:55,880 --> 00:13:57,760 Speaker 1: you gotta give me three four yards out out of 289 00:13:57,760 --> 00:13:59,959 Speaker 1: pop here, guys, you have to not to mention when 290 00:14:00,000 --> 00:14:01,360 Speaker 1: you have a running back like this, if you just 291 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,400 Speaker 1: give him a crease, you know he's gonna fall forward 292 00:14:03,440 --> 00:14:05,959 Speaker 1: for a yard or two. What You're fine on a 293 00:14:06,240 --> 00:14:09,520 Speaker 1: on a run as long as it's positive. And like 294 00:14:09,559 --> 00:14:11,560 Speaker 1: I said, going back to this game and watching in 295 00:14:11,600 --> 00:14:14,720 Speaker 1: the first half, missed opportunities. They run a zone stretch 296 00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,400 Speaker 1: to the right and it gets blown up for a 297 00:14:18,440 --> 00:14:20,080 Speaker 1: tackle for a loss. Was that the one where a 298 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:22,480 Speaker 1: mommy got pushed back into the backfield. Yes, but that 299 00:14:22,680 --> 00:14:26,240 Speaker 1: wasn't Patrick o mam May's fault. Is why this is 300 00:14:26,280 --> 00:14:28,240 Speaker 1: why I'm saying, going back to the film, people are 301 00:14:28,280 --> 00:14:32,440 Speaker 1: going crazy. The problem was it was actually Wheeler because 302 00:14:32,520 --> 00:14:36,480 Speaker 1: Chad Wheeler on that play is working a zone. Actually 303 00:14:36,520 --> 00:14:38,440 Speaker 1: initially it's going to be to the tight end, but 304 00:14:38,520 --> 00:14:40,840 Speaker 1: he had nothing with the tight end to do because 305 00:14:40,880 --> 00:14:43,400 Speaker 1: the defensive end was outside of him. So where is 306 00:14:43,440 --> 00:14:48,440 Speaker 1: his linebacker. His linebacker was stacked inside behind the three technique. 307 00:14:48,680 --> 00:14:50,840 Speaker 1: There was no point for him to go up and 308 00:14:50,920 --> 00:14:54,320 Speaker 1: block air and disregard the three technique to penetrate into 309 00:14:54,360 --> 00:14:57,560 Speaker 1: the backfield. So when you recognize guys outside you have 310 00:14:57,600 --> 00:15:01,160 Speaker 1: a three technique, your linebackers inside, You're combination block goes 311 00:15:01,240 --> 00:15:03,680 Speaker 1: with Oh, mommy, to where you seal the three. You 312 00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:06,720 Speaker 1: work a double front side the end. Tight end widens 313 00:15:06,720 --> 00:15:08,920 Speaker 1: the defensive end. All of a sudden, what do you have? 314 00:15:09,240 --> 00:15:12,560 Speaker 1: You have a natural running lane. If he does that, 315 00:15:12,560 --> 00:15:15,600 Speaker 1: that is a thirteen plus yard run down the sideline. 316 00:15:16,080 --> 00:15:19,320 Speaker 1: That one play there, and once again, everybody, oh mommy, oh, 317 00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:21,560 Speaker 1: I got blown up. It wasn't his fault. Wheelers should 318 00:15:21,600 --> 00:15:23,840 Speaker 1: have worked the combination block in the zone scheme to 319 00:15:23,920 --> 00:15:26,400 Speaker 1: the inside linebacker because that's who he's going to. If 320 00:15:26,400 --> 00:15:28,720 Speaker 1: you go back and watch it and replay it, he's 321 00:15:28,760 --> 00:15:32,400 Speaker 1: working up to space to the linebacker inside and here 322 00:15:32,480 --> 00:15:34,360 Speaker 1: comes to three technique looping out to where he should 323 00:15:34,360 --> 00:15:38,320 Speaker 1: have been helping. See as unless you're a guy that played. 324 00:15:39,640 --> 00:15:43,800 Speaker 1: I mean, Dave didn't have this conversation, and I thought, 325 00:15:43,840 --> 00:15:46,280 Speaker 1: I mean, look, you see a lineman trying to block 326 00:15:46,320 --> 00:15:48,360 Speaker 1: somebody and that guy pushing the lineman into the backfield. 327 00:15:48,360 --> 00:15:50,360 Speaker 1: Your automatic reaction is no dub. That guy didn't do 328 00:15:50,400 --> 00:15:53,640 Speaker 1: well in that he's expecting help. It's basically, you're working 329 00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:57,120 Speaker 1: a combination with the three technique, Oh mommy, and Wheeler 330 00:15:57,160 --> 00:15:59,600 Speaker 1: to the inside linebacker. That's how you learn, folks, to 331 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:02,480 Speaker 1: a one five one three. We want to remind you 332 00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:04,800 Speaker 1: that Big Blue Kickoff Live is presented by cores Light. 333 00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:08,200 Speaker 1: Download the cores Light rewards after an amazing Giants prizes 334 00:16:08,720 --> 00:16:10,720 Speaker 1: throughout the season.

By 338 00:16:18,680 --> 00:16:20,880 Speaker 1: the way, the Giants were one of two on fourth downs, Dave. 339 00:16:20,920 --> 00:16:23,800 Speaker 1: Dave dominant makes that point to addition of the oh 340 00:16:23,880 --> 00:16:27,200 Speaker 1: of seven on third day, So one for nine overall, 341 00:16:27,280 --> 00:16:30,400 Speaker 1: not exactly banner. Let's go to scott and Washington. He's 342 00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:34,840 Speaker 1: up first. Let's have Scottie Giants, Happy Columbus Day. I've 343 00:16:34,880 --> 00:16:41,840 Speaker 1: got one comment and one question. The comment tries to 344 00:16:41,920 --> 00:16:47,840 Speaker 1: highlight the difference between blame and responsibility, and responsibility or 345 00:16:47,880 --> 00:16:53,880 Speaker 1: two different constops agreed one thing one of one. Two 346 00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:56,200 Speaker 1: things happened on the last play of the game. It 347 00:16:56,320 --> 00:17:01,640 Speaker 1: was a seal goal attempt. You know how far it was. Um, 348 00:17:01,640 --> 00:17:06,320 Speaker 1: It's plain to see that five New York Giants did 349 00:17:06,400 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 1: not rush at all. There were three behind the line 350 00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,439 Speaker 1: of scrimmage, and the two wings took one step forward 351 00:17:14,040 --> 00:17:18,320 Speaker 1: and had no contact at all with the opposing players. 352 00:17:18,320 --> 00:17:24,000 Speaker 1: So five of the six New York Giants did not rush. Now, God, 353 00:17:24,040 --> 00:17:26,040 Speaker 1: I'll be honest with that. I'll be honest with you. 354 00:17:26,720 --> 00:17:29,679 Speaker 1: I didn't notice that when I watched. I will go 355 00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:31,480 Speaker 1: back and watch. What you need to do. What you 356 00:17:31,520 --> 00:17:37,159 Speaker 1: need to do is look at it. I believe you. 357 00:17:39,240 --> 00:17:42,680 Speaker 1: But one of two things happened. Either either the coaches 358 00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:48,719 Speaker 1: told them to do that or the players didn't didn't 359 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:51,920 Speaker 1: do what they were told. Both of those things are bad. 360 00:17:52,800 --> 00:17:57,320 Speaker 1: I just think that it's blocking the field goals tough, 361 00:17:57,880 --> 00:18:00,880 Speaker 1: but your odds are a heck of a lot when 362 00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:03,800 Speaker 1: you rush eleven instead of five. And if it's a 363 00:18:03,880 --> 00:18:07,680 Speaker 1: concerning a fake, if a concert was, they're gonna run 364 00:18:07,680 --> 00:18:10,840 Speaker 1: a fake. All they need to do is tackle anyone 365 00:18:10,880 --> 00:18:13,159 Speaker 1: who left the line of scrimmage. Would have been a 366 00:18:13,200 --> 00:18:16,800 Speaker 1: five yard holding penalty in a fifty eight yard fe 367 00:18:16,960 --> 00:18:22,520 Speaker 1: ago with no time left. So someone's responsible for for 368 00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:28,000 Speaker 1: that call on the formation. And if they were instructed 369 00:18:28,040 --> 00:18:30,639 Speaker 1: to go go after the kick and try and block it, 370 00:18:30,800 --> 00:18:33,240 Speaker 1: no one did it. And if they didn't do that, 371 00:18:33,400 --> 00:18:36,600 Speaker 1: then the players aren't listening to the coaches. And I 372 00:18:36,720 --> 00:18:39,640 Speaker 1: have a problem. I don't want to beat a dead 373 00:18:39,640 --> 00:18:42,600 Speaker 1: horse here, But you're right. Look at how crucial and 374 00:18:42,640 --> 00:18:45,240 Speaker 1: how tough it was the way that the play of 375 00:18:45,240 --> 00:18:47,720 Speaker 1: our special teams were yesterday in this game. I mean, 376 00:18:47,760 --> 00:18:50,560 Speaker 1: it cost us ten points and it cost it's the game. Yeah, 377 00:18:50,600 --> 00:18:52,639 Speaker 1: it looked like about I couldn't dave, and I just 378 00:18:52,640 --> 00:18:54,679 Speaker 1: brought up the replayer. It looked like about four or 379 00:18:54,720 --> 00:18:57,679 Speaker 1: five players two behind the line of scrimmage, and then 380 00:18:57,680 --> 00:19:00,280 Speaker 1: the two guys on the wing didn't come in. You're 381 00:19:00,359 --> 00:19:04,520 Speaker 1: right about there, there's three behind. Half the team did 382 00:19:04,560 --> 00:19:07,919 Speaker 1: not rush, all right, quick questions, A lot of a 383 00:19:07,920 --> 00:19:10,639 Speaker 1: lot of debate, you know about how out of beats 384 00:19:10,640 --> 00:19:13,879 Speaker 1: those the two deep zone. I know, I'm fine, you 385 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:16,399 Speaker 1: run the ball, you're bring the safety's up. But whether 386 00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:19,120 Speaker 1: you can run the ball or not, why is it 387 00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:22,840 Speaker 1: that running three wide receivers deep on a single play, 388 00:19:23,040 --> 00:19:26,679 Speaker 1: three wide receivers deep on a single play, how do 389 00:19:26,760 --> 00:19:31,000 Speaker 1: you double cover all three? You don't? Okay, there you go. 390 00:19:31,200 --> 00:19:33,920 Speaker 1: That's how you beat a two deep zone. Then Beckham 391 00:19:33,960 --> 00:19:39,320 Speaker 1: and Sterling and and whoever else you got deep twenty yards. 392 00:19:39,480 --> 00:19:42,520 Speaker 1: It takes a second and a head. You understand last week, 393 00:19:42,680 --> 00:19:45,920 Speaker 1: Last last week, you said, you know, Sherman can't asked 394 00:19:45,960 --> 00:19:49,600 Speaker 1: the offensive line to protect for seven seconds. That's not 395 00:19:49,720 --> 00:19:52,880 Speaker 1: what you need. You need three seconds any of these 396 00:19:52,880 --> 00:19:56,160 Speaker 1: wide receivers to get twenty yards down the field, ball 397 00:19:56,240 --> 00:20:00,320 Speaker 1: goes up. It isn't that simple three seconds for that 398 00:20:00,359 --> 00:20:03,000 Speaker 1: to all to take place. Scott, I played over a 399 00:20:03,080 --> 00:20:05,600 Speaker 1: hundred and sixty games in the NFL. I know that 400 00:20:05,640 --> 00:20:08,000 Speaker 1: you're saying, Oh, it's just three seconds. It is not 401 00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:09,960 Speaker 1: that simple. And by the way, in a in a 402 00:20:10,040 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: two deep zone, Scott, if you're sending everybody down the field, 403 00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,800 Speaker 1: players are going to drop back in their coverage. You're 404 00:20:15,800 --> 00:20:18,120 Speaker 1: not just gonna let all the wide receivers run by 405 00:20:18,200 --> 00:20:21,000 Speaker 1: them and let the two deep safeties cover three guys 406 00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:24,000 Speaker 1: that out number them deep down the field. That's not 407 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:31,400 Speaker 1: how defense. And they're going to man after that. Thank you, Scott, appreciative, buddy. Yeah, 408 00:20:31,400 --> 00:20:33,719 Speaker 1: I mean it's not It isn't that simple. And by 409 00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,879 Speaker 1: the way, again it's not too deep zone. They played 410 00:20:36,880 --> 00:20:39,040 Speaker 1: cover three the whole game, and then towards the end 411 00:20:39,040 --> 00:20:41,760 Speaker 1: they were playing cover four quarters, which you are four 412 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:44,439 Speaker 1: guys deep, cover three, the three guys deep guys. The 413 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:47,120 Speaker 1: Giants have seen more cover three than Cover two this year. 414 00:20:47,280 --> 00:20:50,800 Speaker 1: What's the only game they saw predominant man Texans and 415 00:20:50,920 --> 00:20:53,800 Speaker 1: what game they have the best offense and win Texans. 416 00:20:54,600 --> 00:20:56,200 Speaker 1: I thought they did do a good job against the 417 00:20:56,280 --> 00:20:59,280 Speaker 1: Cover three, uh, and that off coverage the Panthers are playing, 418 00:20:59,320 --> 00:21:03,480 Speaker 1: running those slam inside and they came. Shepard almost broke 419 00:21:03,480 --> 00:21:05,800 Speaker 1: one and Beckhaman was broke two. That could have went 420 00:21:05,800 --> 00:21:07,480 Speaker 1: for big places. Yeah, I mean I had to like 421 00:21:07,640 --> 00:21:09,480 Speaker 1: how they were getting the push off and then slamming. 422 00:21:09,720 --> 00:21:12,040 Speaker 1: It was nice. It was very nice. And those things 423 00:21:12,040 --> 00:21:15,160 Speaker 1: are going to be very important up against this Eagles team. 424 00:21:15,200 --> 00:21:18,000 Speaker 1: You know, you this defense, their front four, you know 425 00:21:18,119 --> 00:21:20,400 Speaker 1: can attack the quarterback. You know that they get pressure 426 00:21:20,680 --> 00:21:23,480 Speaker 1: in the ame b gaps. Fletcher Cox is still playing great, 427 00:21:23,840 --> 00:21:28,159 Speaker 1: Michael Bennett is still wrecking opposing offenses. It's gonna be 428 00:21:28,160 --> 00:21:30,200 Speaker 1: crucial for those players to show up again with Eli 429 00:21:30,240 --> 00:21:31,760 Speaker 1: to get rid of it quickly. And guys, there's no 430 00:21:31,800 --> 00:21:34,320 Speaker 1: complaints about big plays in this game. Eli completed twenty 431 00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: two passes and twenty six yard he He had two 432 00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:41,600 Speaker 1: passes of forty yards or more. He had one, two, three, four, five. 433 00:21:41,680 --> 00:21:44,280 Speaker 1: I think six passes of twenty yards or more. They 434 00:21:44,320 --> 00:21:46,200 Speaker 1: got the ball down the field. In this game, they 435 00:21:46,200 --> 00:21:48,680 Speaker 1: won because of big plays. That's why they won the game. 436 00:21:49,080 --> 00:21:52,760 Speaker 1: That's why they were in the game. Again, yeah, quick 437 00:21:53,240 --> 00:21:55,880 Speaker 1: quick retracks, but that's why they were in the game. 438 00:21:55,920 --> 00:21:58,800 Speaker 1: They should have won the game. They got sixty. Can 439 00:21:58,880 --> 00:22:00,840 Speaker 1: we talk about that for a second, And what's the 440 00:22:00,920 --> 00:22:04,560 Speaker 1: chances that for two consecutive seasons you have a sixty 441 00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:09,520 Speaker 1: one yard franchise records setting kicked by the Eagles beat you, 442 00:22:09,920 --> 00:22:14,000 Speaker 1: and then the following year another franchise records setting field 443 00:22:14,000 --> 00:22:16,960 Speaker 1: goal beats you when you take on the Panthers. I mean, seriously, 444 00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:21,320 Speaker 1: I still get haunting sounds in my sleep and then 445 00:22:21,480 --> 00:22:25,080 Speaker 1: nightmares of two thousand and six wild card game, David 446 00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,760 Speaker 1: Acres hitting it off the right post to beat us 447 00:22:27,760 --> 00:22:32,040 Speaker 1: in the wild card. I'm like, oh, I still those 448 00:22:32,080 --> 00:22:34,240 Speaker 1: Those are the games that you remember. Those are things 449 00:22:34,240 --> 00:22:37,200 Speaker 1: and moments that you can put yourself right back out 450 00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:41,240 Speaker 1: of the field and just realize the magnitude of number one. 451 00:22:41,280 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 1: You're going home, your your playoff dreams are over. But 452 00:22:43,840 --> 00:22:48,720 Speaker 1: too just how quickly and how close that that one 453 00:22:48,760 --> 00:22:51,439 Speaker 1: split second can cost you a football game. Let's go 454 00:22:51,480 --> 00:22:54,240 Speaker 1: to Ryan and Manna Hawking he's up next, Ryan, what's 455 00:22:54,240 --> 00:23:01,919 Speaker 1: going on, buddy? Have a question and a comment on 456 00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:04,880 Speaker 1: the less put on a certain one late in the game. 457 00:23:05,560 --> 00:23:07,560 Speaker 1: My comment is, um, what do you guys take out 458 00:23:07,600 --> 00:23:09,639 Speaker 1: of this game for the Giants defense? Because at parts 459 00:23:09,640 --> 00:23:11,719 Speaker 1: they look great and at parts they look like they 460 00:23:11,720 --> 00:23:14,240 Speaker 1: didn't know what they were doing. Ryan, I, honestly, I'm 461 00:23:14,240 --> 00:23:15,840 Speaker 1: not sure I would ever say at any part in 462 00:23:15,840 --> 00:23:18,000 Speaker 1: that game they look great. I mean, I will say this, 463 00:23:18,119 --> 00:23:20,200 Speaker 1: it looked like a tale of two halves in regards 464 00:23:20,240 --> 00:23:22,480 Speaker 1: to tackling in the second half. The run defense in 465 00:23:22,520 --> 00:23:25,000 Speaker 1: the second half was better, better, but the bottom line, 466 00:23:25,040 --> 00:23:27,600 Speaker 1: they only forced three punts the whole game, and and frankly, 467 00:23:27,600 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: two of them are because it either dropped passes by 468 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:34,560 Speaker 1: the Panthers or bad Cam Newton passes the open receivers. So, honestly, 469 00:23:34,720 --> 00:23:36,720 Speaker 1: I thought the defense in this game was disappointing and 470 00:23:36,720 --> 00:23:38,840 Speaker 1: they could not get off the fielding they needed to 471 00:23:39,119 --> 00:23:40,600 Speaker 1: in the fourth quarter, and that to me was a 472 00:23:40,600 --> 00:23:43,440 Speaker 1: big deal. And for me, the other big discipline problem 473 00:23:43,560 --> 00:23:45,840 Speaker 1: was alf discipline. Do you know that this is a 474 00:23:45,840 --> 00:23:48,239 Speaker 1: team running to read option. You know how important it 475 00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,000 Speaker 1: is to stay in your gaps, especially on the back side, 476 00:23:51,040 --> 00:23:53,720 Speaker 1: and there was times there was breakdowns and there comes 477 00:23:53,800 --> 00:23:56,320 Speaker 1: Cam Newton rolling right through it. And pass rush, I mean, 478 00:23:56,400 --> 00:23:59,280 Speaker 1: you have to get a more consistent pass rush. The 479 00:23:59,320 --> 00:24:02,639 Speaker 1: one time new got pressured in this game by Landon 480 00:24:02,680 --> 00:24:06,520 Speaker 1: Collins when he hurled Christian mc turned into the interception. Otherwise, Ryan, 481 00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:08,879 Speaker 1: he's sitting back there sipping a cup of tea, you know, 482 00:24:09,000 --> 00:24:11,399 Speaker 1: basically deciding where to throw the football. And that's why 483 00:24:11,440 --> 00:24:15,080 Speaker 1: it's crucial to have ov back in this game. If 484 00:24:15,119 --> 00:24:19,320 Speaker 1: he makes short week, short week, he's got to be back. Uh. 485 00:24:19,480 --> 00:24:21,040 Speaker 1: The one thing I did like about the defense was 486 00:24:21,119 --> 00:24:23,959 Speaker 1: they did finally get some turnovers with the two interceptions. 487 00:24:24,560 --> 00:24:28,679 Speaker 1: UM as far as the third one, UM, as far 488 00:24:28,720 --> 00:24:32,600 Speaker 1: as that goes, how does it work? Um? If um 489 00:24:32,760 --> 00:24:36,119 Speaker 1: Schremer asked for measurements, do they do they allow that? 490 00:24:36,240 --> 00:24:38,480 Speaker 1: Or no? Because he doesn't have any time left, No, 491 00:24:38,520 --> 00:24:41,160 Speaker 1: no time outs, no challenge that's got to come from either. 492 00:24:42,080 --> 00:24:45,639 Speaker 1: I'm not saying a challenge. I'm saying for measurement to 493 00:24:45,680 --> 00:24:48,720 Speaker 1: bring up. No. No, no, I mean you can obviously 494 00:24:48,760 --> 00:24:50,640 Speaker 1: you can ask. I'm sure that you're yelling, but at 495 00:24:50,640 --> 00:24:53,840 Speaker 1: that point they already let the Carolina Panthers line up 496 00:24:53,880 --> 00:24:56,800 Speaker 1: and spike the football immediately because I'm sitting there when 497 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:59,560 Speaker 1: I'm sure like everybody else. And by the way, measure it. 498 00:24:59,640 --> 00:25:01,520 Speaker 1: They didn't move the sticks right away. You see fourth 499 00:25:01,520 --> 00:25:04,679 Speaker 1: and one and you seem spiked the ball. I'm like, wait, wait, wait, wait. 500 00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:07,520 Speaker 1: It happened so quickly that they didn't even allow the 501 00:25:07,560 --> 00:25:10,840 Speaker 1: opportunity for it to get really reviewed. And by the way, Ryan, 502 00:25:10,960 --> 00:25:13,399 Speaker 1: if you're the giants, the last thing you want to 503 00:25:13,440 --> 00:25:15,480 Speaker 1: do is ask for a measurement because once you ask 504 00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:19,320 Speaker 1: for a measurement, that stops the clock. So as the giants, 505 00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,199 Speaker 1: you have to rely on the officials there to do 506 00:25:22,240 --> 00:25:24,840 Speaker 1: the right thing that they asked me. I would want 507 00:25:24,840 --> 00:25:27,480 Speaker 1: to measurement, but it stops the clock if they keep 508 00:25:27,560 --> 00:25:30,000 Speaker 1: them on fourth down. No, but then but then they 509 00:25:30,119 --> 00:25:32,400 Speaker 1: can kick the field goal. Yeah, they still have time 510 00:25:32,440 --> 00:25:34,280 Speaker 1: to kick the field goal. They have time to run 511 00:25:34,320 --> 00:25:35,840 Speaker 1: the field goal unit out there and get them all 512 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:40,000 Speaker 1: prepped up, because it would have been it would have 513 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:43,440 Speaker 1: been appreciate the call and that and that's why to me, 514 00:25:43,520 --> 00:25:44,879 Speaker 1: that play and a lot of people have kind of 515 00:25:44,920 --> 00:25:46,840 Speaker 1: picked that one out as the one that's really get 516 00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,000 Speaker 1: annoying them the most. But there was nothing you could 517 00:25:49,000 --> 00:25:51,400 Speaker 1: have done, No, and and and there's still an opportunity 518 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,960 Speaker 1: for the Panthers and kick Fiel go. Is it maybe 519 00:25:53,000 --> 00:25:54,800 Speaker 1: a little bit more difficult with them having to run 520 00:25:54,840 --> 00:25:58,680 Speaker 1: out and execute the play? Sure, I'll buy that, but 521 00:25:58,680 --> 00:26:00,480 Speaker 1: but there's still plenty of Frankly him to get it. 522 00:26:00,520 --> 00:26:02,560 Speaker 1: Don Yeah. I mean I think when that play, when 523 00:26:02,560 --> 00:26:04,760 Speaker 1: that running play finished, what was there about nineteen seconds 524 00:26:04,760 --> 00:26:06,560 Speaker 1: on the class And that's what I mean. You need 525 00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:08,800 Speaker 1: for you to run out your field goal team, get 526 00:26:08,840 --> 00:26:10,760 Speaker 1: him the set up, and get him operated to kick that. 527 00:26:11,200 --> 00:26:13,840 Speaker 1: You need about sixteen seventeen seconds. That's what we used 528 00:26:13,840 --> 00:26:15,719 Speaker 1: to work on. And they had they had, They had 529 00:26:15,720 --> 00:26:19,560 Speaker 1: plenty of time to do it. Two five on three 530 00:26:19,600 --> 00:26:25,160 Speaker 1: out to California. What's up to? Jose Hey, jose Hey, 531 00:26:25,440 --> 00:26:29,960 Speaker 1: thanks first color Hey, thanks for calling. I appreciate it. Yeah. 532 00:26:30,040 --> 00:26:34,280 Speaker 1: So well, I'm gonna start with the glass half fool. Okay. 533 00:26:34,359 --> 00:26:37,080 Speaker 1: I know that last year we uh we lost the 534 00:26:37,119 --> 00:26:39,080 Speaker 1: game to the Eagle that the buzzer with the sixty 535 00:26:39,080 --> 00:26:43,000 Speaker 1: plus yarder, and it happened again yesterday, right, but I 536 00:26:43,000 --> 00:26:46,200 Speaker 1: want to believe that just like last year when our 537 00:26:46,200 --> 00:26:49,240 Speaker 1: season went for the worst after that game, I want 538 00:26:49,240 --> 00:26:50,639 Speaker 1: to say that there. Our season is going to go 539 00:26:50,680 --> 00:26:53,480 Speaker 1: for the better this year, and they have to start 540 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:55,760 Speaker 1: on Thursday, right. Well, Jose, I gotta be honest with you. 541 00:26:56,400 --> 00:26:59,200 Speaker 1: In that locker room after the game, I did get 542 00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,679 Speaker 1: a different sense from the team after the loss. You know, 543 00:27:04,000 --> 00:27:05,640 Speaker 1: and Dave you you weren't there, but you can speak 544 00:27:05,680 --> 00:27:09,320 Speaker 1: to this as a player. After some losses, it's so quiet, 545 00:27:09,359 --> 00:27:12,280 Speaker 1: you can hear a pin drop, but everyone is so despondent. 546 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:16,439 Speaker 1: This was almost a like defiant We're proud of the 547 00:27:16,480 --> 00:27:20,240 Speaker 1: way we played. We're angry we lost and how we lost, 548 00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:22,879 Speaker 1: but we think this has kind of put us on 549 00:27:22,960 --> 00:27:26,360 Speaker 1: the right path. That's the sense that I got out 550 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:28,000 Speaker 1: of that locker room now one and four. Maybe it's 551 00:27:28,040 --> 00:27:30,919 Speaker 1: too little, too late, who knows, we'll see, but to me, 552 00:27:30,960 --> 00:27:33,000 Speaker 1: it was a much different sense from the players and 553 00:27:33,080 --> 00:27:36,720 Speaker 1: what I got from losses against the Jaguars, Dallas and 554 00:27:36,800 --> 00:27:39,200 Speaker 1: New Orleans. I feel it today too. You could tell 555 00:27:39,280 --> 00:27:41,320 Speaker 1: guys are here, guys are getting their treatment, guys are 556 00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:43,080 Speaker 1: getting ready for this football game, and you could just 557 00:27:43,119 --> 00:27:46,080 Speaker 1: tell that there was a different type of attitude post 558 00:27:46,119 --> 00:27:48,040 Speaker 1: game than there was in the previous games. I agree 559 00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,480 Speaker 1: with you, wholeheartedly. And I think that's something that you know, 560 00:27:51,560 --> 00:27:53,960 Speaker 1: you continue to talk about. We talk about as fans 561 00:27:53,960 --> 00:27:57,560 Speaker 1: seeing progress as a player, how much fully invested you 562 00:27:57,560 --> 00:28:00,480 Speaker 1: are in you want to see progress, You want to 563 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:02,840 Speaker 1: you want to win, you want to see that what 564 00:28:02,920 --> 00:28:04,720 Speaker 1: you're doing and you're putting in the work in the 565 00:28:04,760 --> 00:28:07,639 Speaker 1: effort that the results are eventually going to come. And 566 00:28:07,680 --> 00:28:09,719 Speaker 1: that's something that I think that they started to see. 567 00:28:10,000 --> 00:28:11,920 Speaker 1: And I think that's something that you're gonna have them 568 00:28:11,960 --> 00:28:14,359 Speaker 1: come together. And I think that's something that we know 569 00:28:14,400 --> 00:28:15,720 Speaker 1: about it and we're not going to get all the 570 00:28:15,720 --> 00:28:18,119 Speaker 1: way into it, but with Coach Shermer's press conference, he 571 00:28:18,200 --> 00:28:21,400 Speaker 1: said he feels that this is something that's gonna energize 572 00:28:21,400 --> 00:28:25,879 Speaker 1: and revitalize and bring this group closer together. Yeah, And 573 00:28:26,000 --> 00:28:28,160 Speaker 1: I got that sense for all the way from over here. 574 00:28:28,200 --> 00:28:30,960 Speaker 1: And even in Coach Sherman's response, you could tell you 575 00:28:31,040 --> 00:28:33,840 Speaker 1: what really aggravated by the media. Oh yeah, And I 576 00:28:33,840 --> 00:28:35,639 Speaker 1: hadn't heard him like that before. Well, you know who 577 00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:37,400 Speaker 1: say the funny thing. I don't think he was really 578 00:28:37,440 --> 00:28:39,400 Speaker 1: aggravated by the media at that point. I think he 579 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:42,840 Speaker 1: was still aggravated about maybe some of the officiating and 580 00:28:42,880 --> 00:28:44,200 Speaker 1: just maybe how the end of the game went. I 581 00:28:44,200 --> 00:28:47,080 Speaker 1: think he just made they lost. Now they lost. Yeah, 582 00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:48,960 Speaker 1: And you know, I think the other thing with the penalty, 583 00:28:49,240 --> 00:28:52,080 Speaker 1: you already covered him very well. But I think we're 584 00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:56,200 Speaker 1: currently we're not a team that's good enough to be 585 00:28:56,320 --> 00:28:59,120 Speaker 1: able to overcome all of these things, absolutely correct, you know, 586 00:28:59,320 --> 00:29:01,400 Speaker 1: we're not. We're not at the moment. I think that 587 00:29:01,440 --> 00:29:03,920 Speaker 1: we may build on that. As you stack up more wins, 588 00:29:04,280 --> 00:29:05,760 Speaker 1: you may be able to get that and maybe the 589 00:29:05,760 --> 00:29:07,840 Speaker 1: ball will bounce our way as well. I mean, you 590 00:29:07,880 --> 00:29:10,600 Speaker 1: look at yesterday's game and you look at that one 591 00:29:10,680 --> 00:29:14,560 Speaker 1: fumble by Cam inches from the sidelines. The guy was 592 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:16,960 Speaker 1: inches on the sign and he touches the silence, so 593 00:29:17,040 --> 00:29:19,000 Speaker 1: the ball we can't get the ball right it was? 594 00:29:19,000 --> 00:29:23,280 Speaker 1: Was it web a righty right? Yeah? And then it 595 00:29:23,320 --> 00:29:26,080 Speaker 1: happened again. It happened last week against the Saint when 596 00:29:26,360 --> 00:29:29,160 Speaker 1: one of the guys fumbled the ball near midfield. I 597 00:29:29,240 --> 00:29:31,040 Speaker 1: think one of our guys tips it and then it 598 00:29:31,360 --> 00:29:35,120 Speaker 1: lands right back in his hands um and he gets 599 00:29:35,120 --> 00:29:37,320 Speaker 1: the ball back. So there's like those places that are 600 00:29:37,360 --> 00:29:39,560 Speaker 1: just not going our way this season at the moment. 601 00:29:39,600 --> 00:29:41,560 Speaker 1: But I think things will turn around, and I think 602 00:29:41,600 --> 00:29:44,880 Speaker 1: things will will end up settling and we'll we'll start 603 00:29:44,920 --> 00:29:47,320 Speaker 1: getting some of these calls and some of these bounces 604 00:29:47,320 --> 00:29:50,040 Speaker 1: will go our way as well. Hopefully you're right. We 605 00:29:50,080 --> 00:29:53,800 Speaker 1: had that. There was a penalty that kept their drive 606 00:29:53,880 --> 00:29:56,600 Speaker 1: going too. I'm trying to think of which one. Defensively, 607 00:29:56,680 --> 00:30:02,040 Speaker 1: there was a penalty that web a little and that 608 00:30:02,120 --> 00:30:04,000 Speaker 1: then and then he got called for the fifteen yard 609 00:30:04,440 --> 00:30:08,160 Speaker 1: on sportsmanlike you're talking about that drive, I believe that 610 00:30:08,280 --> 00:30:10,560 Speaker 1: is a third end of the second quarter or start 611 00:30:10,560 --> 00:30:13,400 Speaker 1: of the third, if I'm not mistaken. You could check 612 00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:15,360 Speaker 1: that the other thing to day. From what you know, 613 00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:19,280 Speaker 1: It's funny to me this game reflected more what I 614 00:30:19,440 --> 00:30:21,960 Speaker 1: thought the Giants season would look like at the start 615 00:30:21,960 --> 00:30:23,640 Speaker 1: of the year. Like I didn't think they'd have a 616 00:30:23,680 --> 00:30:26,640 Speaker 1: lot of losses like it against Dallas or even the 617 00:30:26,680 --> 00:30:28,520 Speaker 1: Saints where they had trouble scoring. I thought they'd be 618 00:30:28,520 --> 00:30:30,600 Speaker 1: able to score this year, but I worried about the 619 00:30:30,600 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: defense being able to get off the field when you 620 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,320 Speaker 1: need them too late because of the pass rush issues. 621 00:30:34,680 --> 00:30:36,760 Speaker 1: And I think this game kind of reflected a little 622 00:30:36,760 --> 00:30:40,680 Speaker 1: bit more um what I thought this team's losses might 623 00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:43,880 Speaker 1: look like at the start of the year. You can't 624 00:30:43,880 --> 00:30:48,880 Speaker 1: find it. I'll try to find two four five one 625 00:30:48,920 --> 00:30:52,960 Speaker 1: three two one nine nine four five one three. Let's see. 626 00:30:52,960 --> 00:30:54,280 Speaker 1: I think it might have been the second quarter, Dave. 627 00:30:54,360 --> 00:30:56,680 Speaker 1: Let me see if I could find it here for you. Um, 628 00:30:57,160 --> 00:31:03,480 Speaker 1: they were driving now fine, either way, let's Chris and 629 00:31:03,520 --> 00:31:06,120 Speaker 1: Houston and then we'll try to track down that. Chris. 630 00:31:07,200 --> 00:31:11,520 Speaker 1: Are you guys doing doing well? Chris? What's up? All right? Uh? 631 00:31:11,760 --> 00:31:13,480 Speaker 1: First off, I thought I was gonna be calling me 632 00:31:13,640 --> 00:31:16,880 Speaker 1: yesterday to get your opinion on justin irvit or will grieve? 633 00:31:17,080 --> 00:31:21,360 Speaker 1: Then Billy and Dallas decided to lose, so miraculously we're 634 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:24,920 Speaker 1: still in this thing, which is crazy to think, you know, Chris, 635 00:31:25,000 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: it's amazing. And I said that before at one in four. 636 00:31:27,680 --> 00:31:30,400 Speaker 1: Usually you know you're already thinking about the draft. But 637 00:31:30,840 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: you know, hopefully, or we'll see what happens with the 638 00:31:33,240 --> 00:31:36,000 Speaker 1: Redskins and Saints tonight. A Redskins win, you know, that's 639 00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:37,960 Speaker 1: a three game in the lost column difference. That could 640 00:31:37,960 --> 00:31:40,000 Speaker 1: be tough. But they're in New Orleans, so we'll see. 641 00:31:40,120 --> 00:31:42,400 Speaker 1: Right now they're still alive. But you gotta be filly 642 00:31:42,400 --> 00:31:47,200 Speaker 1: on Thursday. Well, I do remember stating that I truthfully 643 00:31:47,240 --> 00:31:50,240 Speaker 1: believe that nine wins would win the division. So that 644 00:31:50,320 --> 00:31:57,640 Speaker 1: might be the case now, just too three very quick 645 00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:00,840 Speaker 1: points that just discussed me yesterday, and the one question. 646 00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:03,880 Speaker 1: You know, the game. First off, the game, it's not 647 00:32:04,000 --> 00:32:08,560 Speaker 1: a good game. It's a bad game. The rules, inconsistency, 648 00:32:08,760 --> 00:32:12,240 Speaker 1: just overall the NFL. It's just it's mind boggling. What's 649 00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,560 Speaker 1: going on over there? You know, you look at you 650 00:32:15,600 --> 00:32:18,840 Speaker 1: look at the tackling for the Giants yesterday. Do we 651 00:32:18,920 --> 00:32:22,000 Speaker 1: not teach that? I heard Landon Collins for two years 652 00:32:22,120 --> 00:32:25,040 Speaker 1: lobbying to be a captain and the leader, and he 653 00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:28,240 Speaker 1: and he's guilty of not rapid several times. It was 654 00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:30,520 Speaker 1: just it was a just grace, not just him but others. 655 00:32:31,040 --> 00:32:34,120 Speaker 1: And then the O'Dell piece before I get to my question. 656 00:32:34,400 --> 00:32:37,560 Speaker 1: The O'Dell piece was just seen Justina Anderson. But to me, 657 00:32:37,760 --> 00:32:40,640 Speaker 1: anytime you have an interview with her, I think it's trouble. 658 00:32:41,000 --> 00:32:43,240 Speaker 1: But the fact that he sat down with a what 659 00:32:43,400 --> 00:32:46,560 Speaker 1: is little Wayne doing there? I mean, if you're if 660 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:50,640 Speaker 1: you're the a leader, I rather seven heart over there 661 00:32:50,920 --> 00:32:53,600 Speaker 1: like they did that little shoot then little Wayne. The 662 00:32:53,640 --> 00:32:56,400 Speaker 1: only connection is they're both from New Orleans. That's it. 663 00:32:56,480 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 1: But it made it made no sense whatsoever. And by 664 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:01,520 Speaker 1: the way, Chris, I will say this and I had 665 00:33:01,560 --> 00:33:04,920 Speaker 1: made an impassioned play at the end of Friday show 666 00:33:05,040 --> 00:33:07,960 Speaker 1: about at that point a couple of the quotes of 667 00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:09,960 Speaker 1: that interview got leaked, and I thought a lot was 668 00:33:10,000 --> 00:33:13,280 Speaker 1: being made of nothing. I will, I'll be fair, I said, 669 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:15,920 Speaker 1: I have fair and I am fair. The other stuff 670 00:33:15,960 --> 00:33:17,880 Speaker 1: that came out on Sunday, I did not like a 671 00:33:17,920 --> 00:33:20,880 Speaker 1: lot of the stuff that said. I did not. And 672 00:33:20,960 --> 00:33:22,840 Speaker 1: if that some of those things, I think it's And 673 00:33:23,000 --> 00:33:27,840 Speaker 1: I think you saw Pat Charmer being very emboldened and 674 00:33:27,920 --> 00:33:32,320 Speaker 1: adamant animated. That's good too about it. And I completely 675 00:33:32,360 --> 00:33:35,480 Speaker 1: understand where he's coming from, because you know what, if 676 00:33:35,520 --> 00:33:40,120 Speaker 1: you want to be the leader, do you have to 677 00:33:40,160 --> 00:33:44,240 Speaker 1: think about what? Yeah? Keep yes, if you want to lead, 678 00:33:44,360 --> 00:33:46,000 Speaker 1: keep little weight out of it. I think that's a 679 00:33:46,040 --> 00:33:50,480 Speaker 1: great botto. I'm with you, Chris, all right. My question 680 00:33:50,560 --> 00:33:56,040 Speaker 1: to you and not to But I knew, we all 681 00:33:56,120 --> 00:33:58,720 Speaker 1: knew the offensive line wasn't going to be great this year. 682 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:01,600 Speaker 1: The reason why I cringed when we got rid of 683 00:34:01,720 --> 00:34:04,880 Speaker 1: Davis Webb. And I agree with what David said earlier 684 00:34:04,880 --> 00:34:08,759 Speaker 1: about three sections of the eternity is because Eli has 685 00:34:08,800 --> 00:34:13,440 Speaker 1: been thrown flat footed all season long. Web flat foot, 686 00:34:13,480 --> 00:34:16,280 Speaker 1: it has more of a cannon. I know if Webb 687 00:34:16,320 --> 00:34:19,040 Speaker 1: was in there right now, the base would be calling 688 00:34:19,120 --> 00:34:21,320 Speaker 1: for him to come in there. What are your thoughts? 689 00:34:21,320 --> 00:34:23,440 Speaker 1: Do you still think that that was fullish for us 690 00:34:23,440 --> 00:34:28,360 Speaker 1: to cut him for or wait him for that particular reason. Yeah, Chris, 691 00:34:28,400 --> 00:34:30,760 Speaker 1: look Davids, what might have a better arm throwing flat footed? 692 00:34:30,760 --> 00:34:34,320 Speaker 1: But I'm not sure if yeah, you literally took the 693 00:34:34,360 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 1: words out of I don't think he knew what the 694 00:34:36,080 --> 00:34:38,080 Speaker 1: ball is going half the time, whether it because he 695 00:34:38,120 --> 00:34:41,280 Speaker 1: wasn't reading things properly or because he was frankly too inaccurate. 696 00:34:41,360 --> 00:34:43,920 Speaker 1: Kyle Bowler threw a ball on his knee over seventy 697 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,319 Speaker 1: yards and Brandon we didn't do the same thing at 698 00:34:47,320 --> 00:34:50,480 Speaker 1: that point. I understand the arm strength. I get that, 699 00:34:50,560 --> 00:34:52,400 Speaker 1: but at the same time, you've got to think about 700 00:34:52,400 --> 00:34:56,600 Speaker 1: accuracy and decision making. I mean, that's fair, that's fair. 701 00:34:57,000 --> 00:34:58,799 Speaker 1: I'll let you guys go on this. I'm coming up 702 00:34:58,840 --> 00:35:01,040 Speaker 1: for Thursday's games. All make sure I say to you 703 00:35:01,120 --> 00:35:04,359 Speaker 1: at the club, Well, Chris, Chris, let me warn you, um, 704 00:35:04,400 --> 00:35:06,319 Speaker 1: if you're coming up Thursday right now. It looks like 705 00:35:06,480 --> 00:35:11,160 Speaker 1: hurricane light conditions. So pack your raincoat and remember no 706 00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:16,200 Speaker 1: umbrella's yeah, thank you, bring the ponco. Thank you, Chris, 707 00:35:16,560 --> 00:35:19,759 Speaker 1: appreciate it. Man, You're supposed to be bad. H Yeah, 708 00:35:19,760 --> 00:35:21,440 Speaker 1: it's supposed to be horrible. It could be a real 709 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:24,600 Speaker 1: ugly game. Um so, and the Eagles played on one 710 00:35:24,600 --> 00:35:26,560 Speaker 1: of those. What was their game against the Colts? I 711 00:35:26,600 --> 00:35:28,839 Speaker 1: think was in the rain maybe three weeks ago and 712 00:35:28,880 --> 00:35:31,040 Speaker 1: Philly maybe yeah, And I was watching the tape. I 713 00:35:31,040 --> 00:35:32,360 Speaker 1: saw one of the games that Arena. I think it 714 00:35:32,400 --> 00:35:35,040 Speaker 1: was the Colt scamp. Let's go to Jason and Virginia. 715 00:35:35,160 --> 00:35:37,440 Speaker 1: He's up next. Before Jason, we get to you, want 716 00:35:37,440 --> 00:35:38,880 Speaker 1: to remind you that Big Book Could Go Live is 717 00:35:38,920 --> 00:35:41,680 Speaker 1: presented by Cores Light down with the Cores Light Rewards 718 00:35:41,719 --> 00:35:44,200 Speaker 1: apt to an amazing Giants prizes throughout the season. Jason, 719 00:35:44,239 --> 00:35:48,640 Speaker 1: the floor is yours. Okay, well wait, every other fans 720 00:35:48,360 --> 00:35:51,359 Speaker 1: here to do. First off, all homage to David Deal. 721 00:35:51,640 --> 00:35:53,879 Speaker 1: We appreciate so much what you did for us and 722 00:35:54,080 --> 00:35:56,600 Speaker 1: being able to sit the share championships with my kids 723 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:00,480 Speaker 1: personally awesome thing. Um I wanted to dark the question 724 00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:04,680 Speaker 1: specifically at you, David sorry, John. As a player, over 725 00:36:04,719 --> 00:36:07,520 Speaker 1: the weeks, we've heard lack of execution, lack of execution, 726 00:36:07,600 --> 00:36:11,200 Speaker 1: lack of execution. Did you find in your experience as 727 00:36:11,239 --> 00:36:14,160 Speaker 1: a player was that more of a player thing or 728 00:36:14,239 --> 00:36:16,200 Speaker 1: was that more of a coach thing? Not having the 729 00:36:16,280 --> 00:36:19,440 Speaker 1: player prepared to execute? Was the combination or both? But 730 00:36:19,480 --> 00:36:22,120 Speaker 1: I'm just asking as your general experience as a player, 731 00:36:22,160 --> 00:36:24,759 Speaker 1: what did you find the most? Wow? I mean that's 732 00:36:24,760 --> 00:36:27,279 Speaker 1: a good question. I mean, do we have half an 733 00:36:27,280 --> 00:36:30,360 Speaker 1: hour here we're go into a pisis about this? No, 734 00:36:30,480 --> 00:36:32,759 Speaker 1: but it's a it's a great question. I mean, you 735 00:36:32,840 --> 00:36:38,239 Speaker 1: have to think about leadership is what starts. That's a 736 00:36:38,360 --> 00:36:40,920 Speaker 1: reflection of everything. So it does start from your coaches 737 00:36:41,320 --> 00:36:43,479 Speaker 1: to make sure that they're dialing in a game plan 738 00:36:43,560 --> 00:36:45,920 Speaker 1: that is going to be tailored to the strength not 739 00:36:46,000 --> 00:36:48,520 Speaker 1: only of your football team or of your offense, defensive, 740 00:36:48,520 --> 00:36:52,680 Speaker 1: special teams, but for those players individually. But also at 741 00:36:52,680 --> 00:36:55,759 Speaker 1: this point where you're at coming into week six as 742 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,640 Speaker 1: a professional player, regardless of whether you're running a new 743 00:36:58,680 --> 00:37:01,799 Speaker 1: system or not, it's up to you to make the 744 00:37:01,840 --> 00:37:04,040 Speaker 1: plays and get it done out on the football field. 745 00:37:04,320 --> 00:37:06,200 Speaker 1: You know, well, we sit there and we have discussions 746 00:37:06,239 --> 00:37:07,960 Speaker 1: all the time. When it comes to things, you know, 747 00:37:08,040 --> 00:37:09,640 Speaker 1: you have somebody in your life that's a smoke or 748 00:37:09,640 --> 00:37:12,920 Speaker 1: everybody's yelling them to not smoke. Until that person consciously 749 00:37:13,000 --> 00:37:15,960 Speaker 1: decides to stop smoking, it doesn't matter what people say 750 00:37:16,000 --> 00:37:18,080 Speaker 1: to him. That's the same thing when it comes to 751 00:37:18,160 --> 00:37:21,560 Speaker 1: playing football, how dialed in, how passionate you are, how 752 00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:24,040 Speaker 1: much you're willing to sacrifice so that when you go 753 00:37:24,080 --> 00:37:26,719 Speaker 1: out on the field on Sundays you don't use well, 754 00:37:26,760 --> 00:37:29,600 Speaker 1: it's a new scheme, it's a new system. You know, 755 00:37:29,640 --> 00:37:32,279 Speaker 1: I'm not a hound of present positive because when you're 756 00:37:32,320 --> 00:37:35,560 Speaker 1: not a positive and that's split second that you think 757 00:37:35,600 --> 00:37:38,279 Speaker 1: and you don't react in the NFL, you're not gonna 758 00:37:38,320 --> 00:37:40,360 Speaker 1: get your job done. And that's the difference of what 759 00:37:40,440 --> 00:37:43,600 Speaker 1: it takes to be professionally good and to be a 760 00:37:43,600 --> 00:37:46,200 Speaker 1: great player. That you know that you don't have any 761 00:37:46,320 --> 00:37:49,640 Speaker 1: stones that you have that you didn't turn to make 762 00:37:49,680 --> 00:37:52,120 Speaker 1: sure that your preparation is the way that you can 763 00:37:52,160 --> 00:37:54,960 Speaker 1: walk away from a Sunday, regardless of a winner loss, 764 00:37:55,000 --> 00:37:57,080 Speaker 1: without a single regret. And Dave, how often do you 765 00:37:57,080 --> 00:37:59,880 Speaker 1: think players think they're working hard, but they're not really 766 00:38:00,040 --> 00:38:03,640 Speaker 1: working hard. Being busy isn't working hard. Everybody can be busy, 767 00:38:03,680 --> 00:38:06,640 Speaker 1: but what you're doing during that time is it being 768 00:38:06,680 --> 00:38:09,080 Speaker 1: productive to where it's going to change what you're doing? 769 00:38:09,520 --> 00:38:12,000 Speaker 1: You know, there's a big difference in that. You always 770 00:38:12,040 --> 00:38:15,799 Speaker 1: heard uh what what was the quote by John Wooden? Uh, 771 00:38:16,480 --> 00:38:19,520 Speaker 1: be in a hurry, but don't rush. You know. Yeah, 772 00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:21,040 Speaker 1: you want to be going, you want to be, but 773 00:38:21,080 --> 00:38:23,120 Speaker 1: don't rush to where you're gonna skip a step and 774 00:38:23,160 --> 00:38:24,440 Speaker 1: you're not gonna be able to do your job to 775 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:28,640 Speaker 1: the best of your ability. What else you got, Jason? Okay? Um? 776 00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 1: Just then one follow up on that, So, um, if 777 00:38:31,600 --> 00:38:33,799 Speaker 1: it really all starts with leadership, and that's kind of 778 00:38:33,800 --> 00:38:36,640 Speaker 1: what I picked up from you, do you feel there's 779 00:38:36,680 --> 00:38:39,719 Speaker 1: anybody on the team currently who is showing they've got 780 00:38:39,719 --> 00:38:41,560 Speaker 1: what it takes to step up and be a leader 781 00:38:41,560 --> 00:38:44,279 Speaker 1: who isn't in that position? And conversely, do you think 782 00:38:44,280 --> 00:38:46,960 Speaker 1: they've set up anybody to be in leadership that you 783 00:38:47,120 --> 00:38:51,520 Speaker 1: feel isn't really uh really meaning the mustard right now? No, 784 00:38:51,640 --> 00:38:53,839 Speaker 1: I mean, obviously, when it comes to a football team, 785 00:38:53,880 --> 00:38:56,600 Speaker 1: there's leaders in there all in different ways. Some lead 786 00:38:56,640 --> 00:39:00,280 Speaker 1: by example, some are vocals. Some You can't be phony 787 00:39:00,320 --> 00:39:02,279 Speaker 1: about that if you're not a vocal guy, and you're 788 00:39:02,320 --> 00:39:05,080 Speaker 1: not a yelling their screamer. Don't be that guy, because 789 00:39:05,120 --> 00:39:07,120 Speaker 1: people are going to see right through it. So I 790 00:39:07,160 --> 00:39:09,840 Speaker 1: think everybody's a leader in their own way and in 791 00:39:09,840 --> 00:39:12,279 Speaker 1: their own way, shape or form. But I do know 792 00:39:12,360 --> 00:39:15,080 Speaker 1: this that after this past week, after coach Shermer talked 793 00:39:15,120 --> 00:39:17,640 Speaker 1: to the team about all the distractions and everything that 794 00:39:17,680 --> 00:39:21,239 Speaker 1: was going off going on away from the field, I 795 00:39:21,280 --> 00:39:23,000 Speaker 1: do know this. I knew that they do did have 796 00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:25,360 Speaker 1: a meeting and the players talked about it, and like 797 00:39:25,480 --> 00:39:27,680 Speaker 1: we talked about, we saw some of the results, but 798 00:39:27,719 --> 00:39:29,799 Speaker 1: it's not just about some of the results. It's the 799 00:39:29,840 --> 00:39:31,799 Speaker 1: result of winning at the end of the day. And 800 00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:33,960 Speaker 1: we'll see what this football team does with one in 801 00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:39,920 Speaker 1: four still the bottom line. Yeah, yeah, alright, thanks so much. 802 00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:44,480 Speaker 1: Appreciate it, Thank you, appreciate it.

Obviously disappointing the loss, 811 00:40:21,080 --> 00:40:24,840 Speaker 1: it was, you know, difficult, difficult one to take, second 812 00:40:24,880 --> 00:40:29,479 Speaker 1: year in a row on that, you know, late field goal. Um, 813 00:40:29,560 --> 00:40:32,040 Speaker 1: you know, coach Sherman, hang in there. Better days are ahead. 814 00:40:32,920 --> 00:40:37,960 Speaker 1: Just get them ready for Thursday. Um.

Go win the game, guys, 823 00:41:02,560 --> 00:41:05,960 Speaker 1: go win the game. Um. A lot of things weren't wrong, obviously, 824 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:08,160 Speaker 1: you know this was not a perfect game by the Giants, 825 00:41:08,160 --> 00:41:10,840 Speaker 1: but you know, you boil it all down. Football is 826 00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,359 Speaker 1: all about blocking and tackling. You want to you want 827 00:41:13,400 --> 00:41:18,800 Speaker 1: a good example of bad blocking. First play of the game, David, 828 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:21,560 Speaker 1: you could probably tell tell the truth on this one. 829 00:41:22,000 --> 00:41:26,640 Speaker 1: That play is not designed to lose two yards. You're 830 00:41:26,760 --> 00:41:29,360 Speaker 1: correct on that one. Then there we go, and that 831 00:41:29,480 --> 00:41:31,120 Speaker 1: summed it up. You don't have to look very far 832 00:41:31,200 --> 00:41:33,319 Speaker 1: to see what the blocking was like first play the 833 00:41:33,360 --> 00:41:37,879 Speaker 1: game tackling Um Jehan you alluded to. It was either 834 00:41:37,920 --> 00:41:42,080 Speaker 1: in your article on the website or earlier in the show. 835 00:41:42,640 --> 00:41:47,919 Speaker 1: You know, the DJ More touchdown. You know, I don't 836 00:41:47,920 --> 00:41:53,720 Speaker 1: care what level you're at. You never I mean, that's 837 00:41:53,760 --> 00:41:58,759 Speaker 1: that's not taught. I mean. And and David, you know, 838 00:41:58,880 --> 00:42:03,239 Speaker 1: coming from you, if you would on on this, you know, 839 00:42:03,360 --> 00:42:08,160 Speaker 1: tackling David, I think you really gotta want to do it. Yeah, 840 00:42:08,200 --> 00:42:11,960 Speaker 1: I mean, that's a tough spot. I agree with you. 841 00:42:11,960 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: You know, you gotta want to stick your nose in 842 00:42:15,840 --> 00:42:19,440 Speaker 1: there and make the tackle. I always talk about the 843 00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:21,960 Speaker 1: lost art of a corner making the tackle in the 844 00:42:22,000 --> 00:42:24,040 Speaker 1: open field. And give you an apple credit because he 845 00:42:24,080 --> 00:42:26,120 Speaker 1: did do that against Cam Newton and forced the fumble. 846 00:42:26,160 --> 00:42:28,000 Speaker 1: But the rest of his guys in the secondary on 847 00:42:28,080 --> 00:42:30,719 Speaker 1: d J. Moore's and the round and Curtis Samuel's touchdown 848 00:42:31,120 --> 00:42:34,799 Speaker 1: did not No. No, And you know, I I'm not 849 00:42:34,840 --> 00:42:37,680 Speaker 1: gonna say it isn't it isn't tough. I mean, you're 850 00:42:37,719 --> 00:42:40,120 Speaker 1: a defensive back at one ninety and you got a 851 00:42:40,160 --> 00:42:42,480 Speaker 1: two one and thirty pound running back coming around at 852 00:42:42,480 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 1: you with two blockers in front of him. Your job 853 00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:51,080 Speaker 1: is to stick your nose in there. I mean that 854 00:42:51,560 --> 00:42:54,160 Speaker 1: that was just come on, blocking and tackling. I know 855 00:42:54,239 --> 00:42:56,040 Speaker 1: we can do better at it. I mean, it is 856 00:42:56,080 --> 00:42:58,720 Speaker 1: what it is. The offensive line is what it is. Um, 857 00:42:59,120 --> 00:43:01,680 Speaker 1: we're playing our best players were doing the best we can. 858 00:43:02,320 --> 00:43:04,239 Speaker 1: But I mean fifty yards on the ground, oh for 859 00:43:04,320 --> 00:43:09,400 Speaker 1: seven on third downs? I mean you know, um latim 860 00:43:09,480 --> 00:43:12,680 Speaker 1: address but didn't play? John Yeah, I mean I he 861 00:43:12,800 --> 00:43:16,480 Speaker 1: was working out pregame, he didn't look great. Woman up 862 00:43:16,480 --> 00:43:20,400 Speaker 1: before the game. He was active, but I was we 863 00:43:20,480 --> 00:43:23,560 Speaker 1: were told that he wasn't. So I guess they decided 864 00:43:23,600 --> 00:43:26,520 Speaker 1: that he wasn't well enough to help. Maybe something happened 865 00:43:27,239 --> 00:43:30,920 Speaker 1: in between when the announceding inactives too when the game started. 866 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,239 Speaker 1: I don't know the answer to that, but as far 867 00:43:33,239 --> 00:43:35,120 Speaker 1: as I don't think you took a snap, No, No, 868 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:38,200 Speaker 1: he didn't, right, yeah, yeah, yeah he didn't. Yeah he 869 00:43:38,239 --> 00:43:41,000 Speaker 1: didn't play. He didn't play at all, Um, And I agree. 870 00:43:41,239 --> 00:43:44,000 Speaker 1: I forget who said this earlier in the show. But 871 00:43:45,040 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: the Russell Shepard catch. Um, I thought he could have 872 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:52,520 Speaker 1: run through that ball. Mention it were about it earlier, 873 00:43:52,600 --> 00:43:55,600 Speaker 1: autely there was no reason from the fall down. Yeah, 874 00:43:56,880 --> 00:43:59,399 Speaker 1: yeah right, it didn't look like he had to die 875 00:43:59,480 --> 00:44:01,759 Speaker 1: for the ball. No, I could, un you could have 876 00:44:01,840 --> 00:44:05,120 Speaker 1: run right through it. And unfortunate for the Giants if 877 00:44:05,160 --> 00:44:08,319 Speaker 1: they had caught the touch you know, the touch in 878 00:44:08,360 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: the back, you know, down by contact right away. Um, 879 00:44:12,320 --> 00:44:14,000 Speaker 1: you know, time would to run off and more time 880 00:44:14,000 --> 00:44:17,279 Speaker 1: would a run off the clock if you go to 881 00:44:17,320 --> 00:44:21,160 Speaker 1: the to the caroline, you know, to the caroline of possession. Um, 882 00:44:21,320 --> 00:44:24,440 Speaker 1: well they start running that remember, they start running that 883 00:44:24,480 --> 00:44:29,759 Speaker 1: clock once the review is completed. So so they could 884 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,960 Speaker 1: have ran off as much clock as they wanted. Yeah, 885 00:44:32,200 --> 00:44:35,200 Speaker 1: well that's true. That's true too, That's that's true. Uh, 886 00:44:35,880 --> 00:44:37,960 Speaker 1: you know, I don't know what else to say except 887 00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:39,319 Speaker 1: you know, you gotta get out there and win a 888 00:44:39,360 --> 00:44:41,719 Speaker 1: game on Thursday night and get the next one. It's 889 00:44:41,760 --> 00:44:45,239 Speaker 1: the next one on the schedule. Uh, let's let's you know, 890 00:44:45,320 --> 00:44:48,760 Speaker 1: let's play it. And um, I I think it's turning 891 00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:51,279 Speaker 1: in a little bit. I'm you know, I've I've got 892 00:44:51,320 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: confidence John. You remember last week. I said to you, 893 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,040 Speaker 1: I think this whole thing runs in force. I think 894 00:44:56,400 --> 00:44:59,319 Speaker 1: you know you play you can play it peak efficiency 895 00:44:59,400 --> 00:45:02,719 Speaker 1: for four It doesn't mean you're gonna lose. It just 896 00:45:02,760 --> 00:45:04,200 Speaker 1: means you don't play as well as you did the 897 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:06,359 Speaker 1: week before. And the same thing with the other end. 898 00:45:06,440 --> 00:45:08,239 Speaker 1: You know, you played badly for three or four weeks 899 00:45:08,239 --> 00:45:10,120 Speaker 1: and then it starts to turn a little bit. I 900 00:45:10,400 --> 00:45:14,239 Speaker 1: get the feeling it's turning a little bit. Thank you fundamentals. 901 00:45:14,239 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: All right, Hey, thanks guys. Let's go Giants. Hey, let's 902 00:45:16,560 --> 00:45:19,600 Speaker 1: go Yankee. Yeah that's right, Yankees, Red Sox, and I'll 903 00:45:19,640 --> 00:45:25,719 Speaker 1: be there. Kind of off to one Savorino Vivaldi. That's 904 00:45:25,760 --> 00:45:31,960 Speaker 1: advantage Bomas. I'm ready to go. And by the way, 905 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:34,560 Speaker 1: um at one point that I think Len lenn made 906 00:45:34,560 --> 00:45:35,960 Speaker 1: that was a good one, and that you know, the 907 00:45:37,160 --> 00:45:39,600 Speaker 1: tackling is just something that you have to get better at. 908 00:45:39,719 --> 00:45:43,080 Speaker 1: And two and we talked about it before the year. 909 00:45:43,120 --> 00:45:45,880 Speaker 1: Two days the schedule is so difficult the Giants and 910 00:45:45,920 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 1: actually come out and play well these next two games 911 00:45:48,320 --> 00:45:51,560 Speaker 1: and still lose. They went down to Carolina, did some 912 00:45:51,640 --> 00:45:55,279 Speaker 1: good things, still lost. They're playing teams that made the 913 00:45:55,280 --> 00:45:59,319 Speaker 1: playoffs last year. They're they're good football teams. So it's 914 00:45:59,320 --> 00:46:03,080 Speaker 1: gonna require are really, really strong effort to win. Frankly, 915 00:46:03,280 --> 00:46:06,759 Speaker 1: any of these next three games, and all three phases, absolutely, 916 00:46:07,200 --> 00:46:10,160 Speaker 1: all three phases have to play in harmony with one another. 917 00:46:10,920 --> 00:46:13,080 Speaker 1: All right, let's go to Oh boy, here we go. 918 00:46:14,440 --> 00:46:18,640 Speaker 1: I got a bad feeling about this. Helleujah losing his mind. 919 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:29,600 Speaker 1: Mr Illness, he wasn't right enough jokes. I am happy, age, Hey, 920 00:46:29,719 --> 00:46:34,480 Speaker 1: David's Charlie. Hey, look, we need an exorcism in the 921 00:46:34,560 --> 00:46:41,960 Speaker 1: locker room. You, Charlie hate us. The football gods hate us, 922 00:46:42,080 --> 00:46:44,879 Speaker 1: and it's uh, how you know? We got to burn 923 00:46:44,960 --> 00:46:47,400 Speaker 1: some sage. You know, we got to burn some sage 924 00:46:47,440 --> 00:46:50,720 Speaker 1: in the whole locker room and in in quest center 925 00:46:51,000 --> 00:46:54,040 Speaker 1: and get out all the bad spirit. Charlie, you seem 926 00:46:54,080 --> 00:46:56,440 Speaker 1: like a pretty interesting guy. Have you ever been involved 927 00:46:56,440 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: in an exorcism of some kind, either on you or 928 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 1: on somebody else? Hey? I can't reveal those, but my god, 929 00:47:07,640 --> 00:47:10,120 Speaker 1: you know, look, I looked at that game, and there's 930 00:47:10,160 --> 00:47:13,600 Speaker 1: no way we should have lost. And Eli Manning played 931 00:47:13,600 --> 00:47:16,680 Speaker 1: a great game, he you know, and the offensive line 932 00:47:16,880 --> 00:47:20,080 Speaker 1: did well pas protecting. They weren't so great running the ball, 933 00:47:20,400 --> 00:47:23,520 Speaker 1: But look, we we checked Cam Newton and we checked 934 00:47:23,560 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: McCaffrey pretty much the whole game. They didn't kill us. 935 00:47:27,040 --> 00:47:29,920 Speaker 1: It was just, you know, and the whole thing about tackling. 936 00:47:30,000 --> 00:47:33,040 Speaker 1: Everybody tries to just knock the guy out instead of 937 00:47:33,080 --> 00:47:35,400 Speaker 1: wrapping up, and you know, they're trying to get the 938 00:47:35,440 --> 00:47:38,360 Speaker 1: fumble and they're trying to make this big play and 939 00:47:38,360 --> 00:47:40,799 Speaker 1: and you know, and guys bounce off you you know, 940 00:47:40,840 --> 00:47:43,720 Speaker 1: you've got to wrap up. And that was the issue. 941 00:47:43,719 --> 00:47:46,080 Speaker 1: But look, I I looked at this game and I 942 00:47:46,160 --> 00:47:49,560 Speaker 1: was really encouraged. Look, this field goal kicker will never 943 00:47:49,600 --> 00:47:53,280 Speaker 1: ever kick another six three yard field goal. In fact, 944 00:47:53,400 --> 00:47:56,320 Speaker 1: you probably missed the next two in a row, because 945 00:47:56,320 --> 00:47:59,440 Speaker 1: that's that's our luck. I mean, it's just you know, 946 00:47:59,640 --> 00:48:01,200 Speaker 1: I knew he was going to make it, and I 947 00:48:01,320 --> 00:48:03,480 Speaker 1: knew it. I knew it in a minute that he 948 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:07,080 Speaker 1: was going forward at the game trolley. That thing would 949 00:48:07,080 --> 00:48:12,600 Speaker 1: have been good from seventies. He destroyed that thing, I know, 950 00:48:13,520 --> 00:48:15,719 Speaker 1: I know. And the thing is is like it was 951 00:48:15,800 --> 00:48:19,839 Speaker 1: perfect weather, there was no wind. You know. The thing is, 952 00:48:19,880 --> 00:48:22,279 Speaker 1: if we had won that game, which we should have won, 953 00:48:22,520 --> 00:48:24,680 Speaker 1: we would have been tied with Dallas Philly and we 954 00:48:24,719 --> 00:48:28,680 Speaker 1: would have been like, if if Washington loses tonight and 955 00:48:29,440 --> 00:48:31,319 Speaker 1: New Orleans, which I think they will, we would have 956 00:48:31,320 --> 00:48:34,080 Speaker 1: been a half game out. So you know, if we 957 00:48:34,160 --> 00:48:37,000 Speaker 1: can beat Philly, this is the game, this is gonna 958 00:48:37,040 --> 00:48:40,040 Speaker 1: turn our season right here, will be one and one 959 00:48:40,080 --> 00:48:42,960 Speaker 1: in our division, you know, will be two and four, 960 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:46,000 Speaker 1: Philly will be two and four. Then hopefully Dallas will 961 00:48:46,040 --> 00:48:49,080 Speaker 1: lose again, you know this week coming up, and we're 962 00:48:49,160 --> 00:48:52,239 Speaker 1: right in the in the mix, you know, And uh, 963 00:48:52,320 --> 00:48:55,120 Speaker 1: I mean our offense finally scored more than thirty points. 964 00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:58,000 Speaker 1: I mean we were moving the ball. Eli was doing great. 965 00:48:58,320 --> 00:49:01,640 Speaker 1: He had had one path, a quick flant to Odell. 966 00:49:01,800 --> 00:49:03,839 Speaker 1: And you know, when you throw those quick slants, you're 967 00:49:03,880 --> 00:49:05,680 Speaker 1: throwing in in about a second and you don't have 968 00:49:05,719 --> 00:49:08,279 Speaker 1: a chance to look and see where the safety is. 969 00:49:08,440 --> 00:49:11,360 Speaker 1: And Eli didn't catch it, and that was the interception. 970 00:49:12,480 --> 00:49:14,680 Speaker 1: And and the thing is, and you know, everyone's killing 971 00:49:14,719 --> 00:49:18,440 Speaker 1: O'Dell about the punt thing. Freaking Robert had it right 972 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,319 Speaker 1: in his hands. All you have to do is just 973 00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:24,320 Speaker 1: you know, bounce jump on the ground with it instead 974 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,840 Speaker 1: of trying to catch it. And uh, you know, you 975 00:49:27,880 --> 00:49:31,320 Speaker 1: know so so I I don't put it on O'Dell. 976 00:49:31,640 --> 00:49:34,120 Speaker 1: Odell is trying to make a play. He's trying to 977 00:49:34,160 --> 00:49:37,360 Speaker 1: do everything for this team to win. He's doing punt returns, 978 00:49:37,400 --> 00:49:41,960 Speaker 1: he's doing everything he can. He's throwing passes, he's catching balls. 979 00:49:42,000 --> 00:49:46,120 Speaker 1: I mean, you know, I I just think our offense 980 00:49:46,239 --> 00:49:50,359 Speaker 1: is is clicking. Now, it's going to click. And if 981 00:49:50,400 --> 00:49:52,359 Speaker 1: it is going to be a really rainy game. Who 982 00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:55,360 Speaker 1: would you like to have in bad weather conditions? Eli 983 00:49:55,440 --> 00:49:58,920 Speaker 1: Manning or Works. I would take Eli Manning about bad 984 00:49:58,960 --> 00:50:02,960 Speaker 1: weather any day of the week. Thank you, thank you, Charlie. 985 00:50:03,080 --> 00:50:05,520 Speaker 1: So I have a good one. I was actually intelligent 986 00:50:05,520 --> 00:50:08,040 Speaker 1: called by Charlie there. Yeah, and those are two plays 987 00:50:08,040 --> 00:50:09,919 Speaker 1: that we actually like. We talked being of the show, 988 00:50:09,960 --> 00:50:12,160 Speaker 1: how many crazy plays there were. They happen so early 989 00:50:12,200 --> 00:50:14,279 Speaker 1: in the game we kind of forgot about him. The 990 00:50:14,320 --> 00:50:16,480 Speaker 1: Beckham punt, he was trying to do the right thing 991 00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:18,920 Speaker 1: by trying to block the gunner. But he has to 992 00:50:18,920 --> 00:50:20,680 Speaker 1: be more aware of he has to be more aware 993 00:50:20,680 --> 00:50:22,640 Speaker 1: of where the football is in the air. Yeah, so 994 00:50:22,680 --> 00:50:24,480 Speaker 1: we had that one. We didn't even talk about the 995 00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:26,600 Speaker 1: other special teams. When he did get a decent punt 996 00:50:26,640 --> 00:50:29,200 Speaker 1: return down, the silence was brought back for a holding 997 00:50:29,239 --> 00:50:32,920 Speaker 1: call and after he threw the touchdown past to say 998 00:50:33,040 --> 00:50:39,680 Speaker 1: Kwon Barkley rosas momentum, killer kick out, a bounce, those 999 00:50:39,680 --> 00:50:42,000 Speaker 1: are things you can't do. Nice trip play though, Yeah, 1000 00:50:42,000 --> 00:50:46,000 Speaker 1: that was an unbelievable play and good thing that Odell 1001 00:50:46,040 --> 00:50:48,759 Speaker 1: Beckham Jr. Took those two steps back to make sure 1002 00:50:48,760 --> 00:50:50,520 Speaker 1: that he could throw that ball because if he didn't, 1003 00:50:50,680 --> 00:50:53,040 Speaker 1: he wasn't getting that ball off. And they the way 1004 00:50:53,040 --> 00:50:55,840 Speaker 1: they designed it too, is they brought red Ellison on 1005 00:50:55,880 --> 00:50:59,240 Speaker 1: a drag rout across the field to Beckham that cleared 1006 00:50:59,239 --> 00:51:02,840 Speaker 1: the defensive back and basically it was their rookie linebacker 1007 00:51:02,960 --> 00:51:06,280 Speaker 1: Jermaine Carter that was left one on one with Barkley, 1008 00:51:08,000 --> 00:51:11,080 Speaker 1: and he peeked, He peeked before he went and that 1009 00:51:11,160 --> 00:51:14,480 Speaker 1: was the end of that. Mike and Mike and Maryland. 1010 00:51:14,880 --> 00:51:18,959 Speaker 1: He joins us next they Yeah, I got three things 1011 00:51:18,960 --> 00:51:22,879 Speaker 1: I'd like to mention. The first things the defense. Um, 1012 00:51:23,000 --> 00:51:25,399 Speaker 1: they didn't really come about until about this halfway through 1013 00:51:25,440 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 1: the second quarter. If they would have been a bit 1014 00:51:30,239 --> 00:51:33,719 Speaker 1: we would have been in very good shape. And uh so, 1015 00:51:33,840 --> 00:51:36,040 Speaker 1: you know, the defense has to play the entire game, 1016 00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:40,279 Speaker 1: not just two of the third quarters. Um. The next 1017 00:51:40,280 --> 00:51:43,400 Speaker 1: thing is the punting the punting. They got pumble lightus 1018 00:51:43,440 --> 00:51:45,839 Speaker 1: and they've had fumble lightus for quite some time. I'm 1019 00:51:45,880 --> 00:51:49,360 Speaker 1: not even talking about Yes, you're talking about the fumble 1020 00:51:49,440 --> 00:51:51,920 Speaker 1: lightus that's been going on back there were with the 1021 00:51:52,040 --> 00:51:54,440 Speaker 1: punk You're right, that's got They gotta all go on 1022 00:51:54,520 --> 00:51:58,720 Speaker 1: to that ball, alright, no argument, No argument. My third, 1023 00:51:58,880 --> 00:52:03,480 Speaker 1: My third because the coaching, I think Sherman could be 1024 00:52:03,520 --> 00:52:09,279 Speaker 1: a bit more imaginative, uh and not so uh predictable 1025 00:52:09,400 --> 00:52:12,080 Speaker 1: with some of his calls. He finally got out there 1026 00:52:12,080 --> 00:52:13,800 Speaker 1: and how do you like throw a couple of passes 1027 00:52:13,800 --> 00:52:18,240 Speaker 1: down the field and you know he was successful, given 1028 00:52:18,360 --> 00:52:21,959 Speaker 1: Odell Beckham the ball with five with a five yard 1029 00:52:22,040 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 1: passed and hoping that he runs forever. That works sometimes 1030 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:27,400 Speaker 1: let it get your first down, but it's not going 1031 00:52:27,440 --> 00:52:30,239 Speaker 1: to get your touchdown, all right. I think if when 1032 00:52:30,280 --> 00:52:32,920 Speaker 1: he used the Odell Beckham to make that pass, that 1033 00:52:33,080 --> 00:52:36,360 Speaker 1: was imaginative and that worked well. I think if he 1034 00:52:36,600 --> 00:52:40,160 Speaker 1: if he could be a bit more unpredictable and uh 1035 00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:45,920 Speaker 1: maybe have uh Eli my Mannili roll out a little 1036 00:52:45,920 --> 00:52:49,160 Speaker 1: bit more. It will take the pressure off of the 1037 00:52:49,200 --> 00:52:53,520 Speaker 1: lineman when they want to have a running play or 1038 00:52:53,640 --> 00:52:57,560 Speaker 1: or another passing play. If if he I don't realize 1039 00:52:57,880 --> 00:53:01,040 Speaker 1: he's a pocket passer, but you can also throw on 1040 00:53:01,080 --> 00:53:03,200 Speaker 1: the run. He's proved that when he's been in trouble 1041 00:53:03,239 --> 00:53:05,279 Speaker 1: and he had and he had to break out, he 1042 00:53:05,320 --> 00:53:08,440 Speaker 1: can throw the ball on the run. So I think maybe, 1043 00:53:08,880 --> 00:53:11,440 Speaker 1: if sure, would you know, call a few more plays 1044 00:53:11,440 --> 00:53:13,680 Speaker 1: with the ALI on a rollout, I think would be 1045 00:53:13,680 --> 00:53:15,719 Speaker 1: a heck of a lot more successful, and we can 1046 00:53:15,760 --> 00:53:18,319 Speaker 1: beat the hell out of Philadelphia. And I can't stand 1047 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:22,560 Speaker 1: in Philadelphia either. Between them and Vallis, I don't know 1048 00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:28,000 Speaker 1: which one I hate, So you know that's my comments. 1049 00:53:29,440 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 1: Especially No, it's a great call. I mean, obviously, there 1050 00:53:32,800 --> 00:53:35,719 Speaker 1: are things that you want to do offensively, to be creative, 1051 00:53:35,760 --> 00:53:39,080 Speaker 1: to be deceptive to the defense, to draw reaction one 1052 00:53:39,080 --> 00:53:41,680 Speaker 1: way and try to do it the other way. That's great. 1053 00:53:42,200 --> 00:53:45,200 Speaker 1: But when you can't do the basic things right, thirteen 1054 00:53:45,320 --> 00:53:49,600 Speaker 1: carries negative too young. You can't not have penetration in 1055 00:53:49,640 --> 00:53:52,440 Speaker 1: the run game when you can't have simple pickups and 1056 00:53:52,480 --> 00:53:55,080 Speaker 1: the blitz things early on in the season and now 1057 00:53:55,120 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 1: we'll see if they can adapt and do more. But 1058 00:53:57,120 --> 00:53:59,080 Speaker 1: when you can't do those things right, you can't run 1059 00:53:59,120 --> 00:54:01,680 Speaker 1: fake reverses us that way. When you can't do the 1060 00:54:01,680 --> 00:54:04,160 Speaker 1: base simple things right. They tried to do some in 1061 00:54:04,200 --> 00:54:07,680 Speaker 1: the rounds with Odell and work against the Jet Wars. 1062 00:54:07,719 --> 00:54:09,960 Speaker 1: It would have opened up everything offensively. All right, let's 1063 00:54:09,960 --> 00:54:11,640 Speaker 1: go Scott in New Mexico, and then I'm gonna get 1064 00:54:11,760 --> 00:54:14,640 Speaker 1: Dave's quick take on the Eagles game before we say goodbye. Scott. 1065 00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:20,120 Speaker 1: What's up, hey, guys, I'll keep it shut. I must 1066 00:54:20,160 --> 00:54:24,160 Speaker 1: be missing something because the Giants yesterday scored thirty win points, 1067 00:54:24,200 --> 00:54:26,719 Speaker 1: which they hadn't done what thirty seven or thirty eight game? 1068 00:54:27,160 --> 00:54:31,319 Speaker 1: It was the final season of Tom Coughlin's last year here, 1069 00:54:31,360 --> 00:54:35,880 Speaker 1: so do the man. So you both acknowledge that the 1070 00:54:35,920 --> 00:54:39,880 Speaker 1: Giants sort of self destructed on offense. But yet imagine 1071 00:54:39,920 --> 00:54:42,840 Speaker 1: if they had played a decent or or a clean game, 1072 00:54:43,000 --> 00:54:44,960 Speaker 1: how many points they would have scored. Scott, I don't 1073 00:54:44,960 --> 00:54:47,040 Speaker 1: think they self destructed on offense. I think they self 1074 00:54:47,040 --> 00:54:49,680 Speaker 1: destructed all over the place. They We mentioned the penalties, 1075 00:54:49,680 --> 00:54:52,359 Speaker 1: the mistackles on defense, the mistake on special teams. So 1076 00:54:52,680 --> 00:54:56,279 Speaker 1: I think it was a team wide, um self inflicted 1077 00:54:56,360 --> 00:54:59,000 Speaker 1: wound thing that killed them. Not necessarily offensively. They're the 1078 00:54:59,000 --> 00:55:02,880 Speaker 1: two interceptions, obviously, right. But but let's examine what they 1079 00:55:02,920 --> 00:55:08,440 Speaker 1: did do. And I know the controversy regarding the Odell 1080 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:12,520 Speaker 1: Beckham and Josina Anderson conversation, but is there a correlation 1081 00:55:12,600 --> 00:55:15,160 Speaker 1: about what he said and what transpired on Sunday? And 1082 00:55:15,160 --> 00:55:18,640 Speaker 1: I have some specific reasons, but but but I just 1083 00:55:18,680 --> 00:55:21,759 Speaker 1: wanted to state what did happen. Uh, you know, I 1084 00:55:21,800 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 1: don't care that O'Dell air disgrievances publicly, but look at 1085 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,680 Speaker 1: what the Giants did. The Giants had multiple pass plays 1086 00:55:28,680 --> 00:55:32,200 Speaker 1: over twenty something they were struggling to do. They added 1087 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,600 Speaker 1: a trick or gadget play, something I was personally intimant 1088 00:55:34,600 --> 00:55:36,359 Speaker 1: about adding to the offers to make it a little 1089 00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:38,799 Speaker 1: bit more creative, and that resultant in a touchdown and 1090 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:42,680 Speaker 1: arguably changed the whole dynamic of the game. We already mentioned. 1091 00:55:42,680 --> 00:55:46,880 Speaker 1: They scored over thirty points and uh, you know, I 1092 00:55:46,880 --> 00:55:49,240 Speaker 1: think some will perceive in the interview Old was calling 1093 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:51,399 Speaker 1: out the head coaching quarter. But but but I say, 1094 00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:53,560 Speaker 1: so what they deserve to be called out? You're one 1095 00:55:53,600 --> 00:55:56,319 Speaker 1: in three at the time of the interviewing. Turn out, 1096 00:55:56,320 --> 00:55:58,319 Speaker 1: time out, time out, time out, time out, time out, 1097 00:55:58,320 --> 00:56:00,360 Speaker 1: time out, time out. God, how many locker rooms have 1098 00:56:00,440 --> 00:56:05,000 Speaker 1: you been in? One actually I played you would and 1099 00:56:05,040 --> 00:56:07,120 Speaker 1: you would want one of the leaders of your team 1100 00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:09,880 Speaker 1: to go out and make comments like that. Well, David 1101 00:56:12,160 --> 00:56:14,759 Speaker 1: or Scott, would you want one of your leaders on 1102 00:56:14,840 --> 00:56:17,120 Speaker 1: your team to do this to your team without taking 1103 00:56:17,160 --> 00:56:22,319 Speaker 1: any responsibility? Yes? Scott? Yes or no? Would you not? 1104 00:56:22,440 --> 00:56:25,719 Speaker 1: Yes or no? On what question would you want one 1105 00:56:25,719 --> 00:56:30,800 Speaker 1: of the leaders of your team to do this? It's 1106 00:56:29,680 --> 00:56:35,640 Speaker 1: it's yes. I wanted back to the seventh seasons. It's 1107 00:56:35,680 --> 00:56:39,080 Speaker 1: not two thousand example, yes or no? Scott, Yes or no? 1108 00:56:39,160 --> 00:56:41,400 Speaker 1: Would you want this done in your locker room or not? 1109 00:56:42,440 --> 00:56:45,120 Speaker 1: Uh No, I wouldn't. Why would you have with you 1110 00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:48,120 Speaker 1: were it was done? But but let me go back 1111 00:56:48,160 --> 00:56:50,560 Speaker 1: to the two thousand seven because you were part of that, Dave. 1112 00:56:51,400 --> 00:56:54,920 Speaker 1: Uh you know that there was an issue with Michael 1113 00:56:54,960 --> 00:56:59,400 Speaker 1: Strahan and Tom Coughlin in the two thousand seventh season. No, no, 1114 00:56:59,520 --> 00:57:02,600 Speaker 1: there was no Scott, there wasn't. There was not that 1115 00:57:02,680 --> 00:57:05,239 Speaker 1: was in two thousand and before when he first got here, 1116 00:57:05,239 --> 00:57:07,640 Speaker 1: first got here two thousand and seven. The only issue 1117 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,800 Speaker 1: with Michael was he didn't want to go to training 1118 00:57:09,840 --> 00:57:12,759 Speaker 1: camp and came back after that was it. There was 1119 00:57:12,800 --> 00:57:15,640 Speaker 1: absolutely no issue there. That was an O four when 1120 00:57:15,640 --> 00:57:18,960 Speaker 1: coach Coughlin first got here and we went from a 1121 00:57:19,000 --> 00:57:22,919 Speaker 1: country club to boot camp. Okay, because I thought that 1122 00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:25,360 Speaker 1: there was an issue and what transpired as you guys 1123 00:57:25,360 --> 00:57:27,760 Speaker 1: worked it out and then lo and behold you in 1124 00:57:27,840 --> 00:57:31,120 Speaker 1: the super Bowl. So I thought there was some conflict. 1125 00:57:31,280 --> 00:57:34,640 Speaker 1: I may be wrong, So you situation better than I do. 1126 00:57:34,880 --> 00:57:37,200 Speaker 1: We're owing two with obituaries written on all of us. 1127 00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:40,920 Speaker 1: That was the conflict, you know. Okay, thanks? All right? 1128 00:57:41,000 --> 00:57:43,920 Speaker 1: So but again, I think the Giants can take this 1129 00:57:44,080 --> 00:57:47,160 Speaker 1: as a positive step going forward. And I agree because 1130 00:57:47,200 --> 00:57:50,000 Speaker 1: of what's happening in division, they have a legitimate chance 1131 00:57:50,040 --> 00:57:54,480 Speaker 1: to win their division. So despite everything, I think they're 1132 00:57:54,520 --> 00:57:57,480 Speaker 1: going in a positive way. So I apologize if I 1133 00:57:57,600 --> 00:57:59,640 Speaker 1: was wrong about that statement, but I wanted to get 1134 00:57:59,680 --> 00:58:05,440 Speaker 1: your Absolutely, you have your right to your opinion. But 1135 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,080 Speaker 1: I do this all the time because people make statements 1136 00:58:08,120 --> 00:58:10,240 Speaker 1: to me and they're like, oh, he's right for saying that. 1137 00:58:10,280 --> 00:58:13,440 Speaker 1: I'm like, Okay, put yourself in that position. You're in 1138 00:58:13,440 --> 00:58:15,680 Speaker 1: the locker room, you're doing this day in and day out. 1139 00:58:15,720 --> 00:58:17,800 Speaker 1: How would you feel about it? Well, no, it's a 1140 00:58:17,840 --> 00:58:20,440 Speaker 1: simple yes or no question. How would you feel? Well, 1141 00:58:20,480 --> 00:58:22,760 Speaker 1: I wouldn't want that to happen. So then why are 1142 00:58:22,840 --> 00:58:25,440 Speaker 1: now you turning the tables that you agree with it 1143 00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:28,520 Speaker 1: when if you were putting that instance, you wouldn't. And 1144 00:58:28,680 --> 00:58:30,840 Speaker 1: one thing I asked, so I listened that there's no 1145 00:58:30,920 --> 00:58:33,960 Speaker 1: need for an apology. I love talking I love talking 1146 00:58:34,000 --> 00:58:36,280 Speaker 1: sports and being passionate about it because this is what 1147 00:58:36,320 --> 00:58:38,360 Speaker 1: we all do. But at the same time, when you 1148 00:58:38,400 --> 00:58:40,600 Speaker 1: sit there and you make statements and you vouch for them, 1149 00:58:40,960 --> 00:58:43,280 Speaker 1: then personally vouch from them to yourself. If you were 1150 00:58:43,320 --> 00:58:45,400 Speaker 1: putting those situations too, and they do two other things, 1151 00:58:45,440 --> 00:58:47,000 Speaker 1: I want to just ask you, and then we'll get 1152 00:58:47,000 --> 00:58:50,400 Speaker 1: the Eagles kid you real quick. If you're gonna do 1153 00:58:50,480 --> 00:58:54,640 Speaker 1: something like that, you have to have some self reflection 1154 00:58:54,720 --> 00:58:59,280 Speaker 1: in there too. Yeah, exactly. And I need to play better. 1155 00:58:59,320 --> 00:59:02,840 Speaker 1: There are things I can do better correct and that's 1156 00:59:02,840 --> 00:59:06,439 Speaker 1: something that the quarterback and the head coach always said. Um. 1157 00:59:06,520 --> 00:59:09,000 Speaker 1: And then number two. I did find it somewhat amusing 1158 00:59:09,040 --> 00:59:12,600 Speaker 1: that there. And I know Pat Shermer was trying to 1159 00:59:12,680 --> 00:59:15,320 Speaker 1: turn this into a positive and I understand why he's 1160 00:59:15,360 --> 00:59:19,000 Speaker 1: doing that, but I I could have lived without after 1161 00:59:19,040 --> 00:59:22,760 Speaker 1: the game number thirteen almost taking credit for the team 1162 00:59:22,840 --> 00:59:26,560 Speaker 1: playing better because of what he said. I wasn't even 1163 00:59:26,600 --> 00:59:29,320 Speaker 1: listening to that stuff. I mean, I listen, do you 1164 00:59:29,320 --> 00:59:32,680 Speaker 1: think Ellen Manning cares about any of this stuff interviews? 1165 00:59:32,840 --> 00:59:35,400 Speaker 1: He doesn't come on at the end of the day. 1166 00:59:35,440 --> 00:59:39,280 Speaker 1: This stuff was all built about causing a distraction, raising 1167 00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:42,800 Speaker 1: awareness and getting more attention to Josina Anderson than it 1168 00:59:42,920 --> 00:59:45,120 Speaker 1: was for the opposite. So, I mean, that's what we're 1169 00:59:45,120 --> 00:59:47,520 Speaker 1: in them this time and day and age. But what 1170 00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:51,000 Speaker 1: cures all this stuff vitamin W winning. When you win 1171 00:59:51,400 --> 00:59:53,440 Speaker 1: all of these things, what do you know, go away? 1172 00:59:53,920 --> 00:59:56,880 Speaker 1: They disappear because it doesn't matter at the end of 1173 00:59:56,880 --> 00:59:58,800 Speaker 1: the day. What matters is what you do in between 1174 00:59:58,800 --> 01:00:01,120 Speaker 1: those lines. And if you get a W or at 1175 01:00:01,120 --> 01:00:02,800 Speaker 1: the n L at the end of it, that's it. 1176 01:00:03,720 --> 01:00:07,920 Speaker 1: No Quum Eagles, Yeah, what are the Giants that to 1177 01:00:07,960 --> 01:00:10,800 Speaker 1: be Philly? Well, obviously offensively, they've got to make sure 1178 01:00:10,840 --> 01:00:13,520 Speaker 1: that in the running game they don't let Fletcher Cox 1179 01:00:13,560 --> 01:00:16,200 Speaker 1: be an absolute destroyer and get into the backfield and 1180 01:00:16,200 --> 01:00:19,560 Speaker 1: penetrate forcing Sae Kwon Barkley to bounce the ball outside 1181 01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:21,920 Speaker 1: to where they play those wide nines. They've got to 1182 01:00:21,960 --> 01:00:24,240 Speaker 1: control Michael Bennett in the passing game. I mean, they're 1183 01:00:24,240 --> 01:00:26,760 Speaker 1: flip flopping them. They've got them all over the field, 1184 01:00:27,640 --> 01:00:30,280 Speaker 1: Brand and Graham. A lot of teams have been attacking 1185 01:00:30,360 --> 01:00:35,600 Speaker 1: Jalen Mills on the defensive side of the ball. Obviously defensively. 1186 01:00:35,680 --> 01:00:37,400 Speaker 1: You know that this is a team now coming in 1187 01:00:37,680 --> 01:00:40,160 Speaker 1: with Carson Wentz coming back into the fold. You know 1188 01:00:40,200 --> 01:00:41,880 Speaker 1: that they're gonna want to run a lot more r 1189 01:00:42,000 --> 01:00:45,840 Speaker 1: p o s. They know that we've struggled on defensively, uh, 1190 01:00:45,880 --> 01:00:48,439 Speaker 1: covering up against tight ends. You know that zach Ertz 1191 01:00:48,480 --> 01:00:50,240 Speaker 1: is going to be a compliment al Sean Jeffery is 1192 01:00:50,240 --> 01:00:52,520 Speaker 1: gonna be playing in this third game. Uh, this is 1193 01:00:52,560 --> 01:00:57,080 Speaker 1: one where the Giants just fundamentals, basics a linement assignment 1194 01:00:57,440 --> 01:01:01,560 Speaker 1: and just if you control the game with penalties and 1195 01:01:01,600 --> 01:01:04,840 Speaker 1: without turning the football over, that's where you can beat 1196 01:01:04,880 --> 01:01:06,959 Speaker 1: this football team, and where you can beat these teams 1197 01:01:07,000 --> 01:01:09,280 Speaker 1: at home on a quick week, because this is when 1198 01:01:09,320 --> 01:01:12,600 Speaker 1: a team isn't as sharpened, as dialed into their game plan. 1199 01:01:12,960 --> 01:01:15,600 Speaker 1: They're trying to rush through their preparation. It's not as 1200 01:01:15,640 --> 01:01:17,240 Speaker 1: easy when you're going on the road. Even though if 1201 01:01:17,240 --> 01:01:20,120 Speaker 1: it's just hility, you're out of sync and you're almost 1202 01:01:20,120 --> 01:01:21,760 Speaker 1: like a robot. When you're a player and when you're 1203 01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:23,880 Speaker 1: an athlete, and when you don't feel like you're getting 1204 01:01:23,880 --> 01:01:27,000 Speaker 1: all that preparation time, it's gonna cause some hesitation in 1205 01:01:27,000 --> 01:01:29,720 Speaker 1: the way and your confidence performing as a player. The 1206 01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:32,600 Speaker 1: Giants need to be revitalized, re energized, and coming to 1207 01:01:32,680 --> 01:01:35,320 Speaker 1: this game and give their best effort of the season. 1208 01:01:35,400 --> 01:01:38,840 Speaker 1: Hands down, the Eagles secondary is vulnerable. If you can 1209 01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:44,080 Speaker 1: get Manning enough time to look down field, there are 1210 01:01:44,160 --> 01:01:47,200 Speaker 1: plays to be had. We've had this conversation before. It 1211 01:01:47,240 --> 01:01:52,640 Speaker 1: doesn't always happen, but that Eagles secondary has been civil 1212 01:01:52,920 --> 01:01:54,680 Speaker 1: this year. I remember we said that before the States 1213 01:01:54,680 --> 01:01:58,240 Speaker 1: game how to work out not too good, but ideally 1214 01:01:58,400 --> 01:02:00,120 Speaker 1: there should be some opportunities there and obvious. So you 1215 01:02:00,120 --> 01:02:03,480 Speaker 1: gotta protect uh their defensive line that is excellent, and 1216 01:02:03,520 --> 01:02:06,640 Speaker 1: then offensively you have to you have to pressure Carson Wentz. 1217 01:02:06,760 --> 01:02:09,080 Speaker 1: If he sits back there, he's gonna find those two 1218 01:02:09,120 --> 01:02:12,280 Speaker 1: tight ends. And folks, let me tell you, Ian Thomas 1219 01:02:12,320 --> 01:02:14,880 Speaker 1: was open a lot in that game yesterday. Um, they 1220 01:02:14,920 --> 01:02:16,800 Speaker 1: didn't always take advantage of it because of either bad 1221 01:02:16,880 --> 01:02:19,960 Speaker 1: routes or bad throws or drops or whatever. But you're 1222 01:02:19,960 --> 01:02:21,680 Speaker 1: not gonna have that of Courson, win zach Ertz and 1223 01:02:21,720 --> 01:02:24,280 Speaker 1: Dallas got her and Jason Peters went out of the game. 1224 01:02:24,280 --> 01:02:26,440 Speaker 1: We don't know if is gonna be starting at left tackle. 1225 01:02:26,600 --> 01:02:29,520 Speaker 1: What do you hurt Peters? I can't remember what exactly 1226 01:02:29,560 --> 01:02:32,800 Speaker 1: what it was, um, but that's another reason why they 1227 01:02:32,880 --> 01:02:34,760 Speaker 1: might go to tight end packages. This is cured the 1228 01:02:34,800 --> 01:02:37,320 Speaker 1: line of scripting and the Eagles outphins of line surprising, 1229 01:02:37,360 --> 01:02:38,640 Speaker 1: which is one of the best units of the leader, 1230 01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:41,200 Speaker 1: has actually struggled the last two weeks, so they've been 1231 01:02:41,200 --> 01:02:43,320 Speaker 1: completely Maybe the John's can take advantage of that as well. 1232 01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:46,200 Speaker 1: David two shows in a row, I feel Friday mondays, 1233 01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:48,040 Speaker 1: here we go.
