1 00:00:05,080 --> 00:00:05,400 Speaker 1: Giants. 2 00:00:05,440 --> 00:00:07,760 Speaker 2: Extra Point is brought to you by Citizens, the official 3 00:00:07,800 --> 00:00:09,920 Speaker 2: bank of the New York Giants. Citizens has made ready 4 00:00:09,920 --> 00:00:12,800 Speaker 2: for Giants fans hack and sack Mridian Health, keep getting better, 5 00:00:13,160 --> 00:00:16,919 Speaker 2: Peerless Boilers, the world's best built boilers and by Moody's 6 00:00:17,000 --> 00:00:21,720 Speaker 2: Decode Risk, Unlock Opportunity Learn Moore at Moodies dot Com. 7 00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:25,799 Speaker 2: A disappointing loss for the New York Football Giants. They 8 00:00:25,880 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: fall to the Washington Commanders twenty one to eighteen. The 9 00:00:30,080 --> 00:00:34,879 Speaker 2: difference and Austin Cybert field goal as time expired to 10 00:00:35,040 --> 00:00:40,599 Speaker 2: give the Commanders the victory, and really JC this defense, 11 00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:44,159 Speaker 2: this game rather came down to defense and special teams. 12 00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:47,199 Speaker 2: The special team part of it was that Graham good 13 00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:50,800 Speaker 2: Old pulled his hamstring on the opening kickoff and the 14 00:00:50,840 --> 00:00:54,080 Speaker 2: Giants had to forego two extra point attempts after Jamie 15 00:00:54,120 --> 00:00:56,720 Speaker 2: Gillan missed his first. They had to forego a field 16 00:00:56,720 --> 00:01:00,280 Speaker 2: goal attempt on the final drive, and the Giants could 17 00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,080 Speaker 2: have easily had twenty four points in this game if 18 00:01:03,320 --> 00:01:07,440 Speaker 2: Graham Gondo's healthy. He was not, and the Giants defense 19 00:01:07,480 --> 00:01:09,759 Speaker 2: in the end could not get a stop when they 20 00:01:09,840 --> 00:01:12,679 Speaker 2: needed to, and the Commanders marched all the way down 21 00:01:12,680 --> 00:01:15,680 Speaker 2: the field without much resistance, and they end up winning 22 00:01:15,720 --> 00:01:18,720 Speaker 2: this game twenty one to eighteen on that field goal 23 00:01:18,840 --> 00:01:21,680 Speaker 2: at the end of regulation from just thirty yards away. 24 00:01:22,360 --> 00:01:25,640 Speaker 2: And this comes down jc to the defense not being 25 00:01:25,680 --> 00:01:28,800 Speaker 2: able to get a stop in this game. Zero punts, 26 00:01:29,360 --> 00:01:31,920 Speaker 2: zero takeaways for the Giants defense. 27 00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:35,680 Speaker 1: Yeah, that the bend but don't break kind of mentality, 28 00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:38,240 Speaker 1: I want to say mentality, but that's kind of the 29 00:01:38,240 --> 00:01:40,840 Speaker 1: theme for the defense today. You know, giving up four 30 00:01:40,920 --> 00:01:43,240 Speaker 1: hundred and twenty five yards on a ground, two hundred 31 00:01:43,560 --> 00:01:48,000 Speaker 1: and fifteen rushing yards and then you know, basically shutting 32 00:01:48,040 --> 00:01:49,600 Speaker 1: them out when they got to the red zone. But 33 00:01:49,600 --> 00:01:54,320 Speaker 1: they kicked and made seven field goals. And you know, 34 00:01:54,360 --> 00:01:56,559 Speaker 1: you wouldn't think a team can win by field goals, 35 00:01:56,560 --> 00:01:59,040 Speaker 1: but the Steelers did that last week. Commanders did it 36 00:01:59,080 --> 00:02:02,560 Speaker 1: this week. Not the complimentary football. You've seen an improvement 37 00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,520 Speaker 1: with the offense. Daniel Jones looked like he was settled 38 00:02:05,560 --> 00:02:08,200 Speaker 1: in and was throwing I think, you know, a lot 39 00:02:08,240 --> 00:02:11,400 Speaker 1: better than last week. Some on time passes, some good passes, 40 00:02:11,440 --> 00:02:14,560 Speaker 1: the neighbors. Neighbors just having a great game early and 41 00:02:14,680 --> 00:02:17,640 Speaker 1: just situational football at the end of the game. You know, 42 00:02:17,680 --> 00:02:20,560 Speaker 1: Neighbors dropping that pass and the Giants not being able 43 00:02:20,560 --> 00:02:23,400 Speaker 1: to get to stop. Really the entire game on defense, 44 00:02:23,440 --> 00:02:25,240 Speaker 1: but when it came down to it at the end, 45 00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:27,480 Speaker 1: they have a chance to get off the field and 46 00:02:27,560 --> 00:02:29,960 Speaker 1: they could not do it. And now there's going to 47 00:02:29,960 --> 00:02:32,200 Speaker 1: be a long is it they drive? Did they drift 48 00:02:32,240 --> 00:02:35,680 Speaker 1: to Washington train? They get long train right back to 49 00:02:35,720 --> 00:02:36,680 Speaker 1: New Jersey for sure. 50 00:02:38,040 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: Time of possession thirty seven and a half minutes to 51 00:02:40,480 --> 00:02:43,320 Speaker 2: the command. There's just twenty two minutes thirty seconds for 52 00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:46,560 Speaker 2: the Giants. The Giants had only seven drives on offense 53 00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:49,160 Speaker 2: in this game, JC, It's not a lot. They scored 54 00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:52,960 Speaker 2: three touchdowns, they had to punt twice. The Neighbors drop 55 00:02:53,000 --> 00:02:54,680 Speaker 2: on that fourth and for at the end of the 56 00:02:54,720 --> 00:02:57,560 Speaker 2: game on a good pass from Jones, And then you 57 00:02:57,639 --> 00:03:00,880 Speaker 2: had a Devin Singletary fumble at the end of the game, 58 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,000 Speaker 2: rather in that third quarter when the Giants were driving 59 00:03:04,080 --> 00:03:09,280 Speaker 2: into Commander's territory. So look, two punts on seven drives, 60 00:03:09,600 --> 00:03:11,480 Speaker 2: I think anyone signs up for that, right, I think 61 00:03:11,520 --> 00:03:14,600 Speaker 2: that's pretty good. And then you had the Singletary fumble, 62 00:03:14,639 --> 00:03:17,760 Speaker 2: which was a play that hurt, that took points off 63 00:03:17,760 --> 00:03:18,160 Speaker 2: the board. 64 00:03:18,160 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 1: Eventually. 65 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:20,240 Speaker 2: I don't think they were quite in field goal range yet, 66 00:03:20,240 --> 00:03:22,160 Speaker 2: but they were certainly getting close. When he fumbled that 67 00:03:22,160 --> 00:03:25,760 Speaker 2: football and then that elite Neighbors drop, we talked about it. 68 00:03:25,840 --> 00:03:28,079 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones made a great decision. He held the ball 69 00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:30,400 Speaker 2: back on the initial play. The commanders did a good 70 00:03:30,480 --> 00:03:33,120 Speaker 2: job covering it. He bought some time scrambling to his right, 71 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:36,200 Speaker 2: put the ball right into Neighbors' chest. Obviously, Neighbors was 72 00:03:36,240 --> 00:03:38,080 Speaker 2: beating himself up on the sideline. They showed all his 73 00:03:38,120 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: teammates going up trying to console him to keep his 74 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:42,640 Speaker 2: head in the game if the Giants got the ball back. 75 00:03:42,960 --> 00:03:45,720 Speaker 2: But those are the two plays really on offense that 76 00:03:45,800 --> 00:03:48,920 Speaker 2: cost him. That Neighbors drop on that singletary fumble, that 77 00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:50,760 Speaker 2: could have gotten some more points on the board. 78 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,560 Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, I've definitely seen an improvement offensively for sure 79 00:03:54,560 --> 00:03:58,120 Speaker 1: for the Giants. You know, they didn't look on rhythm 80 00:03:58,160 --> 00:04:00,720 Speaker 1: the whole game, but they converted when they need to. 81 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,680 Speaker 1: They scored some touchdowns, you know, and they got some 82 00:04:03,760 --> 00:04:06,280 Speaker 1: points on the board. You know, defensively, they just couldn't 83 00:04:06,640 --> 00:04:08,600 Speaker 1: get off the field on third down. You know, fifty 84 00:04:08,600 --> 00:04:11,880 Speaker 1: percent on third down on defense, which is not good 85 00:04:12,360 --> 00:04:14,360 Speaker 1: and then giving up one on fourth down and then 86 00:04:14,880 --> 00:04:17,040 Speaker 1: just like I said, just not being able to get 87 00:04:17,080 --> 00:04:19,440 Speaker 1: off the field, you know. And the Commanders they didn't 88 00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:21,440 Speaker 1: play a clean game, you know. Yeah, they didn't have 89 00:04:21,480 --> 00:04:24,919 Speaker 1: any turnovers, and but they they had a lot of 90 00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,400 Speaker 1: costly penalties. They had ten penalties for sixty nine yards. 91 00:04:27,480 --> 00:04:27,560 Speaker 3: Ye. 92 00:04:27,839 --> 00:04:31,160 Speaker 1: Offensively, they stunted a lot of their drives. Defensively there 93 00:04:31,440 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: they gave the Giants good field position on some of 94 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,080 Speaker 1: the defensive penalties that they had, and the Giants still 95 00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:39,120 Speaker 1: can't figure out how to win it at the end. 96 00:04:39,800 --> 00:04:43,400 Speaker 1: Losing Gono though, that was huge, and that took away, 97 00:04:43,480 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: like you said earlier, at least five to six points, 98 00:04:46,279 --> 00:04:48,120 Speaker 1: given the extra points given the field goal that the 99 00:04:48,160 --> 00:04:51,520 Speaker 1: Giants could attempted, but also the mentality of how you 100 00:04:51,560 --> 00:04:53,280 Speaker 1: got to approach these drives and what are you going 101 00:04:53,320 --> 00:04:55,120 Speaker 1: to do at third and fourth down as you get 102 00:04:55,160 --> 00:04:57,440 Speaker 1: closer to the red zone. So that kind of changed 103 00:04:57,440 --> 00:05:00,159 Speaker 1: the game. I'm not making excuses for the Giants. The 104 00:05:00,160 --> 00:05:02,239 Speaker 1: Giants need to find a way how to figure out 105 00:05:02,440 --> 00:05:04,640 Speaker 1: how to win this game, which was a very winnable 106 00:05:04,680 --> 00:05:06,239 Speaker 1: game for the entire game. 107 00:05:07,120 --> 00:05:10,240 Speaker 2: Absolutely, let's take a time out Today's game breakdown was 108 00:05:10,279 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 2: brought to you by our local Ford stores.

We'll get 112 00:05:20,240 --> 00:05:22,680 Speaker 2: more sound from the Giants players in the locker room 113 00:05:22,800 --> 00:05:26,360 Speaker 2: after this disappointing twenty one to eighteen loss to the Commanders. 114 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:27,000 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. 115 00:05:27,240 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 4: You're listening to Giants extra Point on the WFAN Giants 116 00:05:31,640 --> 00:05:32,560 Speaker 4: Radio Network. 117 00:05:32,920 --> 00:05:35,599 Speaker 2: Back here on Giants extra Point, John Schmulk Jonathan cacis 118 00:05:35,640 --> 00:05:38,160 Speaker 2: with you. The Giants fall to the Commander's twenty one 119 00:05:38,200 --> 00:05:41,880 Speaker 2: to eighteen, and you take a look at this JC 120 00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:44,760 Speaker 2: Eligue neighbors aside from that drop was the guy the 121 00:05:44,839 --> 00:05:48,320 Speaker 2: Giants thought when they drafted him. Ten catches on eighteen targets, 122 00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:50,680 Speaker 2: a lot of targets from the league neighbors in this game, 123 00:05:50,760 --> 00:05:52,360 Speaker 2: Daniel Jones figure out early, all right, I'm not going 124 00:05:52,400 --> 00:05:54,560 Speaker 2: to go wrong. Thrown to this guy one hundred and 125 00:05:54,600 --> 00:05:57,840 Speaker 2: twenty seven receiving yards and that touchdown and along of twenty. 126 00:05:57,640 --> 00:06:01,400 Speaker 1: Eight the kid playing for I'm know, I mean, you 127 00:06:01,440 --> 00:06:03,360 Speaker 1: know he we all knew it from training camp, seeing 128 00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: at training camp, seeing him make plays against the Lions, 129 00:06:06,000 --> 00:06:08,440 Speaker 1: against the Jets a practice. You know, the kids a 130 00:06:08,560 --> 00:06:12,760 Speaker 1: phenomenal and dynamic talent. But they only completed the ball 131 00:06:12,839 --> 00:06:14,880 Speaker 1: to four different receivers you know, this game, and I 132 00:06:14,920 --> 00:06:17,520 Speaker 1: think that might have been you know, a focal point 133 00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:19,720 Speaker 1: for the Commanders in the second half. Not that they 134 00:06:19,720 --> 00:06:21,880 Speaker 1: took away from Neighbors, but you know, I think it 135 00:06:21,960 --> 00:06:24,960 Speaker 1: forced some tighter windows and you know, tighter throws because 136 00:06:25,080 --> 00:06:28,080 Speaker 1: you know, Daniel Jones did you know, focus on neighbors. 137 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:30,400 Speaker 1: I wouldn't say too much because he was very productive, 138 00:06:30,880 --> 00:06:32,440 Speaker 1: but you know, there could have been possibly, you know, 139 00:06:32,520 --> 00:06:35,840 Speaker 1: opportunities for other players to get involved and potentially help 140 00:06:35,880 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: open up the offense a little bit more. Yeah, they 141 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:39,040 Speaker 1: did on the game. 142 00:06:39,080 --> 00:06:41,440 Speaker 2: I'm trying to see what the Giants had in terms 143 00:06:41,480 --> 00:06:45,719 Speaker 2: of explosive plays in this game. That's four passes of 144 00:06:45,760 --> 00:06:48,520 Speaker 2: fifteen plus yards. You'd like a little bit more than that. 145 00:06:48,800 --> 00:06:50,440 Speaker 2: But jac I did like the fact that you know, 146 00:06:50,520 --> 00:06:52,960 Speaker 2: they didn't hit on them. They did try to get 147 00:06:53,000 --> 00:06:55,799 Speaker 2: the ball downfield in this game, and sometimes the players 148 00:06:55,800 --> 00:06:59,480 Speaker 2: were covered well. DJ miss Neighbors by maybe four or 149 00:06:59,520 --> 00:07:01,520 Speaker 2: five inches. On one deep ball down in the left line. 150 00:07:01,520 --> 00:07:04,039 Speaker 2: It was a good ball, just slightly overthrown. They were 151 00:07:04,120 --> 00:07:05,960 Speaker 2: trying to get some big chunk plays down the field. 152 00:07:05,960 --> 00:07:07,840 Speaker 2: They just weren't quite able to connect on a lot 153 00:07:07,839 --> 00:07:10,440 Speaker 2: of those fifteen plus yard plays were yards after the 154 00:07:10,480 --> 00:07:11,520 Speaker 2: catch runs from neighbors. 155 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:11,760 Speaker 3: Yeah. 156 00:07:11,760 --> 00:07:13,640 Speaker 1: Absolutely, But when you look at the total plays, right, 157 00:07:13,720 --> 00:07:16,440 Speaker 1: fifty one total plays and four shots downfield, I don't 158 00:07:16,480 --> 00:07:18,720 Speaker 1: mind that, you know, schmoke, I don't mind that. You know, 159 00:07:18,760 --> 00:07:20,960 Speaker 1: there were games where there's been seventy total plays and 160 00:07:20,960 --> 00:07:23,960 Speaker 1: the Giants took one or no shots down the field. 161 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,720 Speaker 1: So I don't mind that percentage of down the field shots. Yeah, 162 00:07:26,760 --> 00:07:28,560 Speaker 1: with only fifty one total plays. 163 00:07:28,800 --> 00:07:31,440 Speaker 2: And we should give some love to Devin Singletary here, JC. 164 00:07:31,640 --> 00:07:34,120 Speaker 2: He played a phenomenal game, had some really good runs 165 00:07:34,120 --> 00:07:36,560 Speaker 2: in this game. Sixteen carries ninety five yards in a 166 00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:39,200 Speaker 2: touchdown along of twenty two. We talked about the fumble 167 00:07:39,280 --> 00:07:41,040 Speaker 2: that that was a killer in the second half when 168 00:07:41,040 --> 00:07:43,000 Speaker 2: they were driving down trying to get a score, but 169 00:07:43,080 --> 00:07:44,720 Speaker 2: he ran the ball well. He made a number of 170 00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:47,000 Speaker 2: guys missing the open field turn what could have been 171 00:07:47,040 --> 00:07:49,760 Speaker 2: only six or seven yard runs into fifteen or seventeen 172 00:07:49,840 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 2: yard runs, although Devin single Terry played a heck of 173 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:53,360 Speaker 2: a game, but schmoke. 174 00:07:53,440 --> 00:07:56,280 Speaker 1: That is the ironing of the NFL. The two best 175 00:07:56,280 --> 00:07:59,960 Speaker 1: offensive players for the Giants basically made the two mistake 176 00:08:00,200 --> 00:08:01,760 Speaker 1: at the end to I wouldn to say cost them 177 00:08:01,760 --> 00:08:03,840 Speaker 1: the game, but you know, put the game almost out 178 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:06,480 Speaker 1: of their hands literally, you know, fumbling the ball and 179 00:08:06,520 --> 00:08:09,160 Speaker 1: dropping the fourth down catch and Milik neighbors in. But 180 00:08:09,200 --> 00:08:11,880 Speaker 1: that's the irony of the NFL. That's why it's not 181 00:08:12,000 --> 00:08:14,360 Speaker 1: just one player. You know, people was all on Daniel 182 00:08:14,400 --> 00:08:16,800 Speaker 1: Jones last week. Look at what Daniel Jones this week. 183 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:20,000 Speaker 1: He hit the receivers and when it came down to it, 184 00:08:20,360 --> 00:08:22,760 Speaker 1: fourth down and four game on the line, he threw 185 00:08:22,800 --> 00:08:24,920 Speaker 1: it to the best player that the Giants have and 186 00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: he dropped the football. It's the irony of the NFL. 187 00:08:28,080 --> 00:08:30,440 Speaker 1: The Giants need to figure out how to play complimentary 188 00:08:30,440 --> 00:08:33,800 Speaker 1: football for four quarters because special teams giving up that 189 00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,280 Speaker 1: early kick return even though it got called back. Now 190 00:08:37,280 --> 00:08:40,600 Speaker 1: you're out. You're consistent scorer in Graham Gano. Graham Gano 191 00:08:40,640 --> 00:08:42,920 Speaker 1: puts up points. He's the consistent score for that for 192 00:08:42,960 --> 00:08:45,320 Speaker 1: the Giants, and they lose him. Now, the Giants got 193 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 1: to figure out what they're gonna do in the kicking 194 00:08:46,760 --> 00:08:48,280 Speaker 1: game because he's gonna be out a few weeks at 195 00:08:48,360 --> 00:08:49,079 Speaker 1: least with a hamstring. 196 00:08:49,200 --> 00:08:49,600 Speaker 5: Yeah, I know. 197 00:08:49,640 --> 00:08:52,480 Speaker 2: Giant fans are some more questioning on social media why 198 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:54,199 Speaker 2: you don't have another kicker there when Gano had the 199 00:08:54,240 --> 00:08:55,679 Speaker 2: groin late in the week, But that was an injury 200 00:08:55,679 --> 00:08:56,680 Speaker 2: that kept him out of the game. It was a 201 00:08:56,679 --> 00:09:01,240 Speaker 2: hamstring on that kick return, so separate in it happens. 202 00:09:01,280 --> 00:09:04,920 Speaker 2: We can't let Austin Eckler run one hundred yards, by 203 00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:07,520 Speaker 2: the way, talk about special teams. Yes, it was called 204 00:09:07,520 --> 00:09:09,640 Speaker 2: back because the holding penalty. Hate to tell you that 205 00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:12,280 Speaker 2: holding penalty had zero to do with Austin Eckler running 206 00:09:12,280 --> 00:09:14,240 Speaker 2: a hundred yards. So if you cover that kick better, 207 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 2: Gano never has to sprint and he never has to 208 00:09:16,600 --> 00:09:17,640 Speaker 2: pull that hamshrink to begin with. 209 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:19,719 Speaker 1: It reminds me of the block field. 210 00:09:19,440 --> 00:09:22,040 Speaker 2: Go week one against Dallas last week, which takes Andrew 211 00:09:22,080 --> 00:09:23,760 Speaker 2: Thomas out one play. 212 00:09:23,920 --> 00:09:25,319 Speaker 5: You don't do well on special teams. 213 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,760 Speaker 2: You put somebody in a bad position, you get an injury, 214 00:09:27,840 --> 00:09:28,920 Speaker 2: It can cost you big time. 215 00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,080 Speaker 1: Why'd you bring that up, Smoll, It just popped? What 216 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:35,880 Speaker 1: can I tell you? Yeah, listen. The complimentary football is 217 00:09:35,920 --> 00:09:38,079 Speaker 1: something that we consistently talk about on this show. We 218 00:09:38,400 --> 00:09:40,720 Speaker 1: do it on BBKL. We we've always talked about it. 219 00:09:40,960 --> 00:09:42,679 Speaker 1: And the Giants have to figure out how to do 220 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 1: that for four quarters. It doesn't count for three quarters. 221 00:09:44,960 --> 00:09:46,840 Speaker 1: You have to do it for four quarters. Your star 222 00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:50,680 Speaker 1: players are having a game, Singletary, neighbors, new guys on 223 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:53,319 Speaker 1: the team. They're having games today. They're playing very well. 224 00:09:53,360 --> 00:09:55,800 Speaker 1: But when it came down in a cruiser situation, you know, 225 00:09:55,920 --> 00:09:57,520 Speaker 1: those guys kind of let the team down, you know, 226 00:09:57,559 --> 00:10:00,000 Speaker 1: and it sucks. You can see Neighbors on the sideline 227 00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:02,400 Speaker 1: and he's gonna be he's gonna have bad dreams about this, 228 00:10:02,480 --> 00:10:05,160 Speaker 1: you know, and rightfully so. You know, the kid is 229 00:10:05,200 --> 00:10:09,120 Speaker 1: a talented kid, but he understands what every catch means. 230 00:10:09,480 --> 00:10:11,520 Speaker 1: And the bigger the situation, the later in the game, 231 00:10:11,559 --> 00:10:14,160 Speaker 1: the closer the game is, the bigger those moments are. 232 00:10:14,320 --> 00:10:16,280 Speaker 1: And he dropped probably the biggest drop he's ever had 233 00:10:16,320 --> 00:10:16,880 Speaker 1: in his life. 234 00:10:16,960 --> 00:10:19,000 Speaker 2: Again, ten catches, one hundred and twenty seven yards and 235 00:10:19,040 --> 00:10:20,360 Speaker 2: a touchdown, absolutely ball. 236 00:10:20,679 --> 00:10:22,840 Speaker 5: Just remember the drop. Unfortunately they shouldn't. 237 00:10:22,840 --> 00:10:23,959 Speaker 2: He played a heck of a game, and I'm sure 238 00:10:24,000 --> 00:10:26,520 Speaker 2: that's all he's remembering now as well, thinking he cost 239 00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:28,480 Speaker 2: this team this game, but it was more than just 240 00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:31,400 Speaker 2: one play, more than just one drop, but obviously one 241 00:10:31,400 --> 00:10:34,120 Speaker 2: that he's going to remember. Daniel Jones sixteen to twenty eight, 242 00:10:34,120 --> 00:10:36,280 Speaker 2: one hundred and seventy eight yards, two touchdowns, no picks 243 00:10:36,280 --> 00:10:38,880 Speaker 2: in the game for the Giants. Mike McFadden thirteen tackles. 244 00:10:38,920 --> 00:10:41,200 Speaker 2: Drew Phillips played a really nice game, twelve tackles around 245 00:10:41,200 --> 00:10:43,560 Speaker 2: the line of scrimmage. He'd have a defensive holding penalty 246 00:10:43,600 --> 00:10:45,920 Speaker 2: late in the game, which he didn't love. Jason Pinnock 247 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:49,000 Speaker 2: had nine tackles. Giants did have let's count him. I 248 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:51,319 Speaker 2: think given five sacks over the course of the game, 249 00:10:51,360 --> 00:10:54,800 Speaker 2: two for Jason Pinnock, one each for McFadden, Phillips and Okarake. 250 00:10:55,160 --> 00:10:58,240 Speaker 2: Those stats are brought to you by the Archdiocese of 251 00:10:58,679 --> 00:11:01,200 Speaker 2: New York. Learn more those appeal dot org a quick 252 00:11:01,200 --> 00:11:03,400 Speaker 2: time out. We'll come back with Brian Dables press conference 253 00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:04,000 Speaker 2: right after this. 254 00:11:04,400 --> 00:11:08,640 Speaker 4: You're listening to Giants Extra Point on the WFAN Giants 255 00:11:08,760 --> 00:11:09,680 Speaker 4: Radio Network. 256 00:11:10,160 --> 00:11:13,520 Speaker 2: Back here on Giants Extra Point, John Schmelt Jonathan Casias 257 00:11:13,520 --> 00:11:15,840 Speaker 2: with you. The Commanders defeat the Giants twenty one to 258 00:11:15,920 --> 00:11:20,200 Speaker 2: eighteen on seven field goals from Austin Cybert. Giants score 259 00:11:20,280 --> 00:11:23,400 Speaker 2: three touchdowns, So you might ask eighteen points how john 260 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,200 Speaker 2: Well Graham Gano pulled his hamstring on the opening kickoff 261 00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:28,440 Speaker 2: that Austin Eckler did return for a touchdown. I got 262 00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:31,920 Speaker 2: called back for a holding penalty, so Jamie Gillen tried 263 00:11:31,960 --> 00:11:32,760 Speaker 2: the first extra point. 264 00:11:32,760 --> 00:11:33,280 Speaker 1: He missed it. 265 00:11:33,600 --> 00:11:37,080 Speaker 2: Giants went for two two point conversions, two incomplete passes, 266 00:11:37,120 --> 00:11:38,880 Speaker 2: the second one to drop by Darius Slayon, not a 267 00:11:38,920 --> 00:11:40,600 Speaker 2: high pass but one he could have came down with 268 00:11:40,640 --> 00:11:44,480 Speaker 2: for sure, And the Giants failed to score twenty points 269 00:11:44,520 --> 00:11:47,120 Speaker 2: despite the fact they scored three touchdowns, and they lose 270 00:11:47,160 --> 00:11:49,240 Speaker 2: to the Commanders twenty one to eighteen. And Jason we've 271 00:11:49,280 --> 00:11:51,000 Speaker 2: been talking about, and we'll get to Brian Dables as 272 00:11:51,040 --> 00:11:54,320 Speaker 2: soon as he hits the podium down in Washington, DC. 273 00:11:55,400 --> 00:11:58,280 Speaker 2: The defense just wasn't good enough the Commanders in this game, 274 00:11:58,720 --> 00:12:03,600 Speaker 2: jac two one hundred and fifteen rushing yards and quite frankly, 275 00:12:04,280 --> 00:12:07,400 Speaker 2: Jya Daniels had a couple of runs forty four rushing yards. 276 00:12:07,960 --> 00:12:10,280 Speaker 2: This was the traditional run game that got the Giants 277 00:12:10,320 --> 00:12:13,000 Speaker 2: in this game. They ran it up the middle. They 278 00:12:13,080 --> 00:12:15,880 Speaker 2: ran it down their throats. The Giants did not tackle 279 00:12:15,960 --> 00:12:20,199 Speaker 2: particularly well, and the Commander's just had their way on 280 00:12:20,280 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: the ground and that's where this offensive attack started. There 281 00:12:23,160 --> 00:12:25,560 Speaker 2: are other parts we can get into, but the bottom line, 282 00:12:25,559 --> 00:12:27,319 Speaker 2: first and foremost was that run defense. 283 00:12:27,800 --> 00:12:29,960 Speaker 1: Yeah, and I spoke about this plenty of times on 284 00:12:29,960 --> 00:12:32,199 Speaker 1: this show. The first time when you walk into a 285 00:12:32,280 --> 00:12:34,800 Speaker 1: room defensive meeting room for the week that you're about 286 00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:36,880 Speaker 1: to play. No matter who the quarterback is, no matter 287 00:12:36,880 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: what the offense is, has always stopped the run. That's 288 00:12:39,080 --> 00:12:42,000 Speaker 1: always the first thing that they have up there. That's 289 00:12:42,000 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: why when it comes down to it, and yeah, you 290 00:12:43,920 --> 00:12:45,800 Speaker 1: give up some field goals, you give them some field position, 291 00:12:45,960 --> 00:12:47,600 Speaker 1: but when you look at the rushing yards in a 292 00:12:47,640 --> 00:12:50,080 Speaker 1: game like this, it's just a hard fought game. You know, 293 00:12:50,480 --> 00:12:53,440 Speaker 1: went all four quarters close kind of to the chest 294 00:12:53,440 --> 00:12:57,280 Speaker 1: the entire game. You look at the rushing yards seven 295 00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,360 Speaker 1: hundred mean one hundred and thirty three almost eight yards 296 00:13:00,400 --> 00:13:03,120 Speaker 1: that carry for Brian Robinson, and he ran the ball 297 00:13:03,160 --> 00:13:06,280 Speaker 1: efficiently late and the Giants never was able to force 298 00:13:06,360 --> 00:13:08,480 Speaker 1: them to punt the ball. Sh milk. They didn't punt 299 00:13:08,480 --> 00:13:10,160 Speaker 1: the ball at all to day, you know, and if 300 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,240 Speaker 1: they would have converted you know, a couple of those 301 00:13:12,280 --> 00:13:15,240 Speaker 1: into touchdowns, it would have been a lopsided score because 302 00:13:15,240 --> 00:13:17,440 Speaker 1: the Giants defense didn't slow them down. 303 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:19,839 Speaker 2: Yeah, two parts of Bowen's defense that were supposed to 304 00:13:19,880 --> 00:13:21,560 Speaker 2: be good heading in here with the red zone defense that. 305 00:13:21,559 --> 00:13:24,680 Speaker 1: He held up the rush defense that did not. Yep, 306 00:13:24,720 --> 00:13:28,400 Speaker 1: and look, the Giants cannot Look, you played the Browns, 307 00:13:28,440 --> 00:13:30,920 Speaker 1: you played the Cowboys. These are teams that want to 308 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:34,320 Speaker 1: run the football, that's for sure. Commanders are kind of 309 00:13:34,400 --> 00:13:36,760 Speaker 1: like that. With you know, Cliff Kingsbury taking over. I 310 00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:38,920 Speaker 1: think the mindset is a little different, especially with the 311 00:13:38,960 --> 00:13:41,560 Speaker 1: talent that they have at the quarterback position. But the 312 00:13:41,559 --> 00:13:43,600 Speaker 1: Giants have to figure out a way to stop the run. 313 00:13:43,800 --> 00:13:47,319 Speaker 1: They cannot be poorous because that bend but don't break that. 314 00:13:47,480 --> 00:13:49,960 Speaker 1: Of course, that didn't work today. You know, the Giants 315 00:13:50,040 --> 00:13:53,200 Speaker 1: offensive is not explosive enough. It's not good enough to 316 00:13:53,200 --> 00:13:55,000 Speaker 1: put enough points on the board to have that bend 317 00:13:55,000 --> 00:13:56,280 Speaker 1: but don't break defense can't happen. 318 00:13:56,440 --> 00:13:58,360 Speaker 2: JSE got to be better on third downs as well 319 00:13:58,400 --> 00:14:01,040 Speaker 2: as bad as the rush defense. Well, they got the 320 00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:03,160 Speaker 2: commander is into a bunch of third and lungs. Here 321 00:14:03,200 --> 00:14:05,200 Speaker 2: was Brian Dable. Now he's at the podium, what's listening. 322 00:14:05,360 --> 00:14:10,520 Speaker 6: Our quarterback played well just to play here or there 323 00:14:10,679 --> 00:14:15,120 Speaker 6: that we came up short on and that's the outcome 324 00:14:15,120 --> 00:14:17,839 Speaker 6: of the game.

We just heard from 522 00:23:41,200 --> 00:23:43,320 Speaker 2: Brian Dable at the podium. We'll try to get Daniel 523 00:23:43,400 --> 00:23:45,040 Speaker 2: Jones at the podium as well in just a couple 524 00:23:45,119 --> 00:23:47,800 Speaker 2: of minutes. Jac Obviously, a lot of the questions there 525 00:23:47,800 --> 00:23:50,679 Speaker 2: are about the Graham Gonna injury. Remember he was added 526 00:23:50,720 --> 00:23:53,240 Speaker 2: late to the injury report with a groin injury, went 527 00:23:53,280 --> 00:23:55,880 Speaker 2: through warmups, We're not there to watch it. The beer 528 00:23:55,920 --> 00:23:58,040 Speaker 2: reporter said they saw some things that could be struggles. 529 00:23:58,040 --> 00:23:59,840 Speaker 2: He also made fifty yard field goal at the end 530 00:23:59,840 --> 00:24:02,920 Speaker 2: of the warm ups. Brian Dables says he was ready 531 00:24:03,000 --> 00:24:05,879 Speaker 2: to play. They considered him healthy the injury on that 532 00:24:05,960 --> 00:24:08,160 Speaker 2: opening kickoff, And I think this is where the disconnect 533 00:24:08,200 --> 00:24:10,520 Speaker 2: probably is with the questions. The Giants consider that a 534 00:24:10,560 --> 00:24:13,240 Speaker 2: separate injury unrelated to the groin where that could have 535 00:24:13,240 --> 00:24:14,960 Speaker 2: happened if he didn't have the groin injury at all, 536 00:24:15,480 --> 00:24:18,320 Speaker 2: And the media seems to think, and I understand a 537 00:24:18,359 --> 00:24:20,120 Speaker 2: lot of questioning, you have a guy with a pre 538 00:24:20,160 --> 00:24:22,480 Speaker 2: existing condition for lack of a better term, coming into 539 00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,040 Speaker 2: the game that you had some concerns about. 540 00:24:24,119 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 1: He was on the injury report. 541 00:24:25,680 --> 00:24:29,720 Speaker 2: They have Jude mikatom Nay, who's their international exception player, 542 00:24:29,720 --> 00:24:30,560 Speaker 2: on the practice squad. 543 00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:32,080 Speaker 5: You could elevate him if you like. 544 00:24:32,640 --> 00:24:35,680 Speaker 2: The Giants thought Graham Gono was healthy, so they treated 545 00:24:35,760 --> 00:24:39,760 Speaker 2: him like any other healthy player. They wouldn't elevate Jude 546 00:24:39,800 --> 00:24:41,960 Speaker 2: on another week when he was one hundred percent healthy, 547 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:45,640 Speaker 2: And that's I think where the disconnect is there. Between 548 00:24:45,920 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 2: how the Giants approached it and the questions that came 549 00:24:47,840 --> 00:24:49,600 Speaker 2: from the media. And look, we don't know what Ronnie 550 00:24:49,600 --> 00:24:51,679 Speaker 2: Barnes said. We don't know what the medical report was 551 00:24:51,720 --> 00:24:54,320 Speaker 2: on Graham Gano. If you're the coach and the medical 552 00:24:54,320 --> 00:24:56,960 Speaker 2: guy said, you know he's he's good, you're not gonna 553 00:24:57,000 --> 00:24:58,640 Speaker 2: have a second kicker activating. 554 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 5: We'll talk about that in a second. We got Daniel 555 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:01,680 Speaker 5: Jones or the podium down in d C. 556 00:25:02,560 --> 00:25:04,280 Speaker 23: Did some good things in the run game, did some 557 00:25:04,280 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 23: good things in the past game. You know, it's kind 558 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,360 Speaker 23: of a ball control game where. 559 00:25:09,320 --> 00:25:11,800 Speaker 3: Uh, you know they were uh you. 560 00:25:11,720 --> 00:25:15,520 Speaker 23: Know, they had good times possession. I thought we did too, So, uh, 561 00:25:15,560 --> 00:25:17,760 Speaker 23: you got to convert on your opportunities when you're in 562 00:25:17,800 --> 00:25:21,640 Speaker 23: a game like that, and uh, a couple of plays, Uh, 563 00:25:22,000 --> 00:25:23,800 Speaker 23: you know, we gotta gotta find a way to make 564 00:25:23,880 --> 00:25:25,440 Speaker 23: and and uh, it's on all of us. 565 00:25:26,200 --> 00:25:28,920 Speaker 24: What do you say, what did you say? 566 00:25:29,119 --> 00:25:30,679 Speaker 18: He played a great game. 567 00:25:31,160 --> 00:25:31,600 Speaker 3: Up with. 568 00:25:33,840 --> 00:25:37,200 Speaker 23: Yeah, I mean I think it was pretty obvious that 569 00:25:37,640 --> 00:25:40,240 Speaker 23: we wouldn't be in the position that we were in without. 570 00:25:40,000 --> 00:25:41,040 Speaker 3: The game that he played. 571 00:25:41,040 --> 00:25:43,720 Speaker 23: And and uh, you know, as a as a rookie 572 00:25:43,800 --> 00:25:46,359 Speaker 23: coming in and he played really well, it was. 573 00:25:46,400 --> 00:25:48,240 Speaker 3: Big time for us throughout the game, made tons of 574 00:25:48,240 --> 00:25:49,160 Speaker 3: big plays. 575 00:25:48,840 --> 00:25:51,320 Speaker 23: And uh, you know, it was a matchup issue for 576 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:54,400 Speaker 23: him for him all day.

So that's 671 00:30:45,720 --> 00:30:48,120 Speaker 23: all we can control, control our preparation and how we 672 00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 23: play on Sundays, and that's what we're gonna do. 673 00:30:53,280 --> 00:30:54,400 Speaker 3: Thanks thanks. 674 00:30:55,840 --> 00:30:57,680 Speaker 2: Player Press Commerce after the game are brought to you 675 00:30:57,760 --> 00:31:01,480 Speaker 2: by MetLife, the official insurance company of the New York Giants. 676 00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:03,160 Speaker 2: Stuff to hear a couple of questions in there. We're 677 00:31:03,160 --> 00:31:05,120 Speaker 2: trying to get some context on one or two of 678 00:31:05,120 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 2: those Andrews. When we do, we'll have it for you. 679 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:10,000 Speaker 2: Let's start with DJ first and then we'll jump back 680 00:31:10,000 --> 00:31:12,240 Speaker 2: to the to the kicking thing from the Dable press conference. 681 00:31:12,600 --> 00:31:12,880 Speaker 1: JC. 682 00:31:13,240 --> 00:31:15,120 Speaker 5: Your thoughts on what Daniel Jones had to say at 683 00:31:15,120 --> 00:31:16,160 Speaker 5: the podium. 684 00:31:16,040 --> 00:31:19,080 Speaker 1: Well, I mean, you know he's PC. You know, well, 685 00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:21,400 Speaker 1: let's talk about his performance, right. I think he took 686 00:31:21,400 --> 00:31:23,480 Speaker 1: a huge step forward from what he did last week. 687 00:31:25,040 --> 00:31:27,440 Speaker 1: You know, look, he's not perfect. I don't expect him 688 00:31:27,480 --> 00:31:29,880 Speaker 1: to be perfect, but I definitely wanted him to see 689 00:31:30,320 --> 00:31:33,200 Speaker 1: wanted to see from him being comfortable in the pocket. 690 00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:36,520 Speaker 1: The offensive line did a very good job today protecting him. 691 00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:39,680 Speaker 1: But they were very good. I agree, And Daniel Jones 692 00:31:39,680 --> 00:31:41,480 Speaker 1: did look comfortable, you know, in the pocket. And I 693 00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: say comfortable being you know, it's a football game, so 694 00:31:44,240 --> 00:31:46,680 Speaker 1: you know, you could handle that for whatever you take it. 695 00:31:46,720 --> 00:31:50,120 Speaker 1: But he played, I think a lot better than he 696 00:31:50,200 --> 00:31:52,840 Speaker 1: did last week, but not as good as he needs 697 00:31:52,840 --> 00:31:55,120 Speaker 1: to play, you know, especially when the defense has been 698 00:31:55,160 --> 00:31:57,760 Speaker 1: as porous as it was today, when they couldn't really 699 00:31:57,840 --> 00:32:00,560 Speaker 1: stop the Commanders. And look, the Commanders had a lot 700 00:32:00,600 --> 00:32:03,320 Speaker 1: of self inflicting, you know, things that they did to themselves. 701 00:32:04,240 --> 00:32:05,720 Speaker 1: You know, they had some plays late in the game 702 00:32:05,720 --> 00:32:08,600 Speaker 1: where they had a couple holding calls, false starts. Excuse me, 703 00:32:08,720 --> 00:32:10,600 Speaker 1: where they you know, kind of stifled themselves, but they 704 00:32:10,640 --> 00:32:13,040 Speaker 1: figured out a way to get down in the in 705 00:32:13,080 --> 00:32:15,440 Speaker 1: the red zone and kick field goals which ended up 706 00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:17,800 Speaker 1: being you know how they won the game. They kicked 707 00:32:17,840 --> 00:32:20,480 Speaker 1: seven field goals which ended up being twenty one points. 708 00:32:20,480 --> 00:32:23,320 Speaker 1: And the Giants couldn't muster up enough even though they 709 00:32:23,360 --> 00:32:26,280 Speaker 1: scored three touchdowns, but they couldn't figure out a way 710 00:32:26,320 --> 00:32:30,160 Speaker 1: to do it because the Commanders did play complimentary football today. 711 00:32:30,360 --> 00:32:32,680 Speaker 1: They did stop the Giants when need to stop him. Yeah, 712 00:32:32,680 --> 00:32:34,200 Speaker 1: and they have a little help from a fumble in 713 00:32:34,200 --> 00:32:36,560 Speaker 1: the drop late in the game. But they did what 714 00:32:36,600 --> 00:32:38,320 Speaker 1: they needed to do to win this game. And that's 715 00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:39,280 Speaker 1: what the Giants need to do. 716 00:32:39,400 --> 00:32:41,520 Speaker 2: And fairs the Commander's for staff fumble. That was a 717 00:32:41,520 --> 00:32:43,760 Speaker 2: great punch out by Benjamin Saint ju just on that play. 718 00:32:43,800 --> 00:32:44,080 Speaker 1: All right. 719 00:32:44,080 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 2: Now, back to the kicker thing with mckatom nay, the 720 00:32:46,560 --> 00:32:48,600 Speaker 2: decision not to have him elevated for this game. 721 00:32:49,280 --> 00:32:50,120 Speaker 5: Give me some insight. 722 00:32:50,560 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 2: You're a guy that was on the injury reportal hot, 723 00:32:52,360 --> 00:32:53,920 Speaker 2: how does that work when you were coming off the 724 00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:55,600 Speaker 2: field that for oneause, you talk to the trainers, Your 725 00:32:55,640 --> 00:32:57,920 Speaker 2: trainers talked to the coach and the decision has made 726 00:32:58,120 --> 00:33:01,120 Speaker 2: is how healthy you are? How do you see that going? 727 00:33:01,160 --> 00:33:03,800 Speaker 2: What context can you give for how that works? Pregame 728 00:33:03,800 --> 00:33:05,120 Speaker 2: when you're making those decisions. 729 00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:07,560 Speaker 1: Well, usually you know if somebody's on an injury report, 730 00:33:07,680 --> 00:33:10,080 Speaker 1: somebody's you know, have a possibility of Look, he can 731 00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:12,600 Speaker 1: probably hurt himself today, and you have a backup for him. 732 00:33:12,720 --> 00:33:15,880 Speaker 1: This and the thing is you have depth throughout the 733 00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:20,000 Speaker 1: entire roster except where the kickers and the punters. You 734 00:33:20,000 --> 00:33:22,320 Speaker 1: don't really carry two punters into games. You don't carry 735 00:33:22,360 --> 00:33:25,480 Speaker 1: two kickers. You don't carry long snappers. That's just what 736 00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:28,120 Speaker 1: it is. You have a backup kicker, but they're usually 737 00:33:28,160 --> 00:33:30,920 Speaker 1: not a kicker. Gillim is a backup kicker, but he's 738 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,360 Speaker 1: a punter. And you know he shanked the first kick 739 00:33:33,400 --> 00:33:35,960 Speaker 1: and the Giants elected to go away from him. You know, 740 00:33:36,000 --> 00:33:37,840 Speaker 1: it is what it is. I probably would do the 741 00:33:37,840 --> 00:33:40,040 Speaker 1: same thing if I was a head coach. But you 742 00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:42,800 Speaker 1: don't carry two kickers, bro, You don't do that, you 743 00:33:42,840 --> 00:33:44,360 Speaker 1: know what I mean. That's not something that you go 744 00:33:44,440 --> 00:33:47,160 Speaker 1: into games. 745 00:33:46,240 --> 00:33:48,840 Speaker 5: On the active forty six you're talking about right right. 746 00:33:49,240 --> 00:33:51,800 Speaker 1: You don't do that, you know. So this was a 747 00:33:51,800 --> 00:33:54,800 Speaker 1: a It's not like a regular play player going into 748 00:33:55,400 --> 00:33:58,760 Speaker 1: a game knowing that you might have something going on 749 00:33:59,120 --> 00:34:03,320 Speaker 1: with his body, you know, McFadden, Right, McFadden was back 750 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:06,000 Speaker 1: and forth throughout the week. They always have somebody to 751 00:34:06,040 --> 00:34:08,479 Speaker 1: back them up. But a kicker is not the same 752 00:34:08,520 --> 00:34:10,840 Speaker 1: as a regular fifty three man on the roster offense 753 00:34:10,880 --> 00:34:13,680 Speaker 1: defense I'm talking about, right, You always have viable guys 754 00:34:13,680 --> 00:34:16,080 Speaker 1: that do that. Punters. You don't carry an extra punter, 755 00:34:16,400 --> 00:34:18,640 Speaker 1: you just don't do it. You don't carry an extra kicker. 756 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:21,640 Speaker 1: You have your backup, yes you do. But like I said, 757 00:34:21,840 --> 00:34:24,319 Speaker 1: roster spots need to be held by mostly the other 758 00:34:24,360 --> 00:34:28,200 Speaker 1: guys that are playing offense and defense because of this situation, 759 00:34:28,480 --> 00:34:31,279 Speaker 1: and it's just very rare that a kicker basically is 760 00:34:31,320 --> 00:34:34,319 Speaker 1: on the injury report before the game and he wasn't 761 00:34:34,320 --> 00:34:36,360 Speaker 1: on the injury port during the week like that. That 762 00:34:36,400 --> 00:34:39,319 Speaker 1: doesn't really exist in the world of football too much. 763 00:34:39,360 --> 00:34:41,759 Speaker 1: So this was kind of like a new world, you know, 764 00:34:41,840 --> 00:34:44,560 Speaker 1: a new situation that prevented itself and you know, so 765 00:34:44,680 --> 00:34:46,279 Speaker 1: be it that the Giants, I don't know if they 766 00:34:46,360 --> 00:34:47,719 Speaker 1: I want to say they didn't handle it well, it 767 00:34:47,760 --> 00:34:48,919 Speaker 1: just didn't work out for them today. 768 00:34:49,520 --> 00:34:51,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, the guy pulled the hamstring on the opening kickoff, 769 00:34:51,600 --> 00:34:53,960 Speaker 2: because you let Austin Eckler go a one hundred yards 770 00:34:54,200 --> 00:34:56,880 Speaker 2: and the odds are on. I think this was Brian Dables' point. 771 00:34:57,040 --> 00:34:59,520 Speaker 2: If that doesn't happen, no one thinks twice about it, 772 00:34:59,560 --> 00:35:02,440 Speaker 2: because grand is healthy enough to kick and we're not 773 00:35:02,480 --> 00:35:03,760 Speaker 2: having this conversation. 774 00:35:03,400 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 1: Changes the way the game was played today. 775 00:35:05,200 --> 00:35:07,480 Speaker 2: Smoke Giants Football is brought to you by Verizon, the 776 00:35:07,480 --> 00:35:09,720 Speaker 2: official five G network of the New York Giants, Verizon 777 00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:11,680 Speaker 2: America's most reliable network. 778 00:35:11,719 --> 00:35:13,600 Speaker 5: Let's take a time out. We'll come back. 779 00:35:13,600 --> 00:35:16,399 Speaker 2: We'll get more audio from the locker room, more analysis 780 00:35:16,440 --> 00:35:19,520 Speaker 2: and everything else. The Giants lose a disappointing game twenty 781 00:35:19,560 --> 00:35:20,600 Speaker 2: one to eighteen to the Commanders. 782 00:35:20,600 --> 00:35:21,239 Speaker 1: We'll be right back. 783 00:35:21,520 --> 00:35:25,760 Speaker 4: You're listening to Giants Extra Point on the WFAN Giants 784 00:35:25,920 --> 00:35:26,840 Speaker 4: Radio Network. 785 00:35:27,200 --> 00:35:29,600 Speaker 26: This is Wanda Robinson, and you're listening to the radio 786 00:35:29,760 --> 00:35:35,000 Speaker 26: home of Big Blue the Fan, WFAN and Wfan FM, 787 00:35:35,000 --> 00:35:35,439 Speaker 26: New York. 788 00:35:39,239 --> 00:35:42,880 Speaker 27: Hyatt and Robinson and a bunch in the right slot. 789 00:35:43,640 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 27: Jons Oliver center hand off for Singletary shoots through a hole. 790 00:35:47,640 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 27: Singletary spins acrossfitfield inside the forty and tackled out about 791 00:35:53,160 --> 00:36:01,240 Speaker 27: the Washingington thirty eight yard line, eighteen fourth and three 792 00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:05,680 Speaker 27: from the thirty one of the Commandment.

That drive for the Giants. We'll go 812 00:37:00,320 --> 00:37:04,400 Speaker 2: through the particulars of it in just a second. Obviously, 813 00:37:04,719 --> 00:37:07,400 Speaker 2: you know the Giants in this game had three scoring 814 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:10,759 Speaker 2: drives that went for touchdowns.

Jamie Gillen misses the first one. The Giants 827 00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:52,600 Speaker 2: fell on two two point conversions. After that, they have 828 00:37:52,680 --> 00:37:54,719 Speaker 2: to go forward on a fourth down late instead of 829 00:37:54,800 --> 00:37:57,920 Speaker 2: kicking a field goal. A Elik Neighbors drop ends up, 830 00:37:58,239 --> 00:38:00,120 Speaker 2: forcing the Giants to come up with no point to 831 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:02,680 Speaker 2: the drive gave the Commanders the ball back. They drive 832 00:38:02,760 --> 00:38:05,719 Speaker 2: right down kick the game winning field goal. Let's listen 833 00:38:05,719 --> 00:38:08,080 Speaker 2: to Graham Gono. He addressed the media after the game. 834 00:38:08,920 --> 00:38:11,040 Speaker 28: Spoken up more and said, you know, you were fighting 835 00:38:11,040 --> 00:38:12,960 Speaker 28: through something for the benefit of the team, you felt 836 00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:13,839 Speaker 28: like you needed to. 837 00:38:14,640 --> 00:38:18,200 Speaker 15: I mean situation. No, I mean I spoke up it 838 00:38:18,280 --> 00:38:20,520 Speaker 15: up last year. It was a it was a mutual, 839 00:38:20,719 --> 00:38:22,560 Speaker 15: you know, decision last year to keep fighting through it. 840 00:38:23,400 --> 00:38:24,960 Speaker 15: As as long as I was able to kick, I 841 00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:27,359 Speaker 15: was gonna try. And uh, I mean today, I wasn't 842 00:38:27,400 --> 00:38:30,439 Speaker 15: dealing with that kicking. So it's just tough luck. 843 00:38:30,480 --> 00:38:31,600 Speaker 3: You know. It wasn't something that. 844 00:38:31,760 --> 00:38:34,480 Speaker 15: Was bothering me at all until you know, I just 845 00:38:34,560 --> 00:38:36,320 Speaker 15: I guess I was running too fast from a body. 846 00:38:36,440 --> 00:38:39,919 Speaker 9: But you know that at times, I'm not sure pretty 847 00:38:40,960 --> 00:38:43,120 Speaker 9: when have one injury kind of things to the over 848 00:38:43,239 --> 00:38:47,720 Speaker 9: compensation part of it, do you think at any point 849 00:38:47,719 --> 00:38:50,839 Speaker 9: that you think, you know, maybe I need to kind 850 00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:54,520 Speaker 9: of step step you know, no, sort of play it cautiously, 851 00:38:54,560 --> 00:38:56,359 Speaker 9: didn't we No, I. 852 00:38:56,280 --> 00:38:58,279 Speaker 15: Mean I was hitting the ball really well in warm ups. 853 00:38:59,120 --> 00:39:00,440 Speaker 15: I mean, of course, it was all I mean, but 854 00:39:00,719 --> 00:39:02,959 Speaker 15: I was fine. I was I was hitting the ball great, 855 00:39:03,640 --> 00:39:06,839 Speaker 15: making a lot of kicks, and I think I hit 856 00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:09,080 Speaker 15: everything under fifty yards, So it wasn't a bother you know. 857 00:39:09,120 --> 00:39:10,400 Speaker 15: I was going into the game confident. 858 00:39:10,600 --> 00:39:11,000 Speaker 3: Uh. 859 00:39:11,360 --> 00:39:13,839 Speaker 15: The hamstring is just that's just bad luck. I mean, 860 00:39:14,000 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 15: I didn't have any issues with it before. I've never 861 00:39:17,440 --> 00:39:21,200 Speaker 15: had you know, hamstring injury. So uh yeah, I don't 862 00:39:21,200 --> 00:39:23,719 Speaker 15: think there's anything. There's no correlation between the two of 863 00:39:23,719 --> 00:39:25,000 Speaker 15: them as far as I'm concerned. 864 00:39:25,000 --> 00:39:27,520 Speaker 3: It's my mindset now. It was just getting it ready. 865 00:39:27,320 --> 00:39:30,279 Speaker 15: And and doing whatever I can, you know, to to 866 00:39:30,320 --> 00:39:31,399 Speaker 15: help the team win. 867 00:39:32,080 --> 00:39:35,120 Speaker 7: Did you think they would let them maybe, you know, 868 00:39:35,200 --> 00:39:36,120 Speaker 7: kick the ball more. 869 00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:39,200 Speaker 15: After the missing I have no idea, you know, I'm 870 00:39:39,239 --> 00:39:41,920 Speaker 15: just I'm just a player. I just just try to 871 00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,160 Speaker 15: play the game. And I'm sure whatever decisions are our 872 00:39:45,200 --> 00:39:46,399 Speaker 15: staff makes are the right ones. 873 00:39:46,480 --> 00:39:46,640 Speaker 3: You know. 874 00:39:46,640 --> 00:39:49,319 Speaker 15: Well, I've got full confidence in them, and our job 875 00:39:49,360 --> 00:39:52,120 Speaker 15: is just to be ready whatever we're called. So, you know, 876 00:39:52,200 --> 00:39:55,160 Speaker 15: I'm sure if we could do it again, we do 877 00:39:55,200 --> 00:39:59,239 Speaker 15: the exact same thing. Help with that hamster upset that 878 00:39:59,480 --> 00:40:00,879 Speaker 15: it doesn't feel good, that's for sure. 879 00:40:00,880 --> 00:40:03,760 Speaker 3: But yeah, I'll uh, I'll be funny. Obviously. 880 00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:06,880 Speaker 9: You see Jamie knowing and he does practice it. 881 00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:09,759 Speaker 15: Oh yeah, he's a great kicker. He's done a great 882 00:40:09,840 --> 00:40:11,359 Speaker 15: job with him. He saw him last year, I think 883 00:40:11,360 --> 00:40:13,200 Speaker 15: it was against the Saints. He did a really good job. 884 00:40:15,200 --> 00:40:15,439 Speaker 1: Yeah. 885 00:40:16,120 --> 00:40:17,920 Speaker 3: Sorry, you ass there has been warm ups? What was 886 00:40:17,960 --> 00:40:20,360 Speaker 3: going on with her and warm ups? I was drilling 887 00:40:20,400 --> 00:40:23,000 Speaker 3: field goals. Wasn't your normal routine. It seemed like you 888 00:40:23,000 --> 00:40:23,520 Speaker 3: were in Oh. 889 00:40:23,480 --> 00:40:26,080 Speaker 15: Yeah, I ran side to get my growing wrapped up. 890 00:40:26,120 --> 00:40:28,440 Speaker 15: But I mean it's just you know, just dealing with 891 00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:32,320 Speaker 15: little things, and then the kickoff is completely different. 892 00:40:32,360 --> 00:40:33,200 Speaker 3: It was just him straight. 893 00:40:34,320 --> 00:40:38,919 Speaker 7: Sorry, So kickoff? Did you guys aim the two? Usually 894 00:40:38,920 --> 00:40:40,480 Speaker 7: when you see it the two, that's probably the goal. 895 00:40:40,880 --> 00:40:41,680 Speaker 18: I presume you can't. 896 00:40:41,719 --> 00:40:43,320 Speaker 3: I can't get any details with it. 897 00:40:43,560 --> 00:40:44,000 Speaker 10: I got. 898 00:40:45,600 --> 00:40:46,480 Speaker 3: Specifics with that. 899 00:40:46,920 --> 00:40:49,440 Speaker 20: I know you're a competitor. Did any party he didn't grow? 900 00:40:49,560 --> 00:40:53,359 Speaker 20: But did any party who say like, I don't don't 901 00:40:53,440 --> 00:40:53,799 Speaker 20: change this? 902 00:40:53,960 --> 00:40:54,040 Speaker 16: No? 903 00:40:54,080 --> 00:40:56,440 Speaker 3: I mean I was stepped for step with that. Yeah. 904 00:40:56,800 --> 00:41:00,040 Speaker 15: I don't know if if you all missed that, but 905 00:40:58,480 --> 00:41:01,879 Speaker 15: I think it was gonna be tough to catch him. 906 00:41:01,920 --> 00:41:03,600 Speaker 15: But I mean that's just the competitiveness. 907 00:41:03,600 --> 00:41:03,960 Speaker 3: You know, it's a. 908 00:41:03,920 --> 00:41:06,279 Speaker 15: Regular season, so we're gonna we're gonna try and get 909 00:41:06,320 --> 00:41:08,400 Speaker 15: him down. I wish i'd seen there was a flag, 910 00:41:08,480 --> 00:41:10,400 Speaker 15: but I mean, you don't see that stuff. It's just 911 00:41:10,440 --> 00:41:13,040 Speaker 15: it's tough luck. You can't blame it on anything, you know, 912 00:41:13,360 --> 00:41:16,200 Speaker 15: whether it's my growing dealing with or what I was. 913 00:41:16,320 --> 00:41:18,439 Speaker 15: I was kicking the ball well and it's just tough luck. 914 00:41:19,239 --> 00:41:20,040 Speaker 1: There you have it, folks. 915 00:41:20,080 --> 00:41:21,799 Speaker 2: If you had any questions about whether or not Graham 916 00:41:21,800 --> 00:41:24,880 Speaker 2: Guno should have been active or he was potentially not 917 00:41:24,920 --> 00:41:26,960 Speaker 2: ready to kick in this game, I think he said 918 00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:28,480 Speaker 2: it right there, jac He said he felt great and 919 00:41:28,520 --> 00:41:30,239 Speaker 2: warm ups, went back in, had the growing raps that 920 00:41:30,320 --> 00:41:32,560 Speaker 2: he hit all his kicks from under forty yards. 921 00:41:32,840 --> 00:41:33,560 Speaker 5: He felt good. 922 00:41:33,640 --> 00:41:38,000 Speaker 2: The hamstring completely unrelated, And I get where the questions 923 00:41:38,040 --> 00:41:40,600 Speaker 2: are coming from. But Graham Gonno sounded like a guy 924 00:41:40,600 --> 00:41:42,719 Speaker 2: that was very confident that he was good to go 925 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:44,439 Speaker 2: kicking the football heading into this game. 926 00:41:44,719 --> 00:41:46,319 Speaker 1: Well, we all know. I'm not a doctor here, but 927 00:41:46,360 --> 00:41:48,320 Speaker 1: we all know when you have an injury in your body, 928 00:41:48,520 --> 00:41:51,560 Speaker 1: it's definitely related to other parts of your body. So 929 00:41:52,239 --> 00:41:55,440 Speaker 1: I know it's not like connected, but it is. So 930 00:41:55,640 --> 00:41:57,120 Speaker 1: I'm not a doctor, but come on, guys, what are 931 00:41:57,080 --> 00:41:57,960 Speaker 1: we talking about here? Smelke. 932 00:41:59,440 --> 00:42:02,960 Speaker 5: I mean, I'm just what I look, it's two separate injuries. 933 00:42:03,080 --> 00:42:05,000 Speaker 1: It is, but it's not you know what I mean? 934 00:42:05,040 --> 00:42:06,840 Speaker 1: Like if you, for example, I go in with a 935 00:42:06,880 --> 00:42:09,840 Speaker 1: hamstring and I hurt my knee. Yes, there's two separate injuries, 936 00:42:09,840 --> 00:42:12,000 Speaker 1: but one thing probably caused the other. Are they on 937 00:42:12,040 --> 00:42:15,759 Speaker 1: the same leg, It doesn't matter. It's the body. That's 938 00:42:15,800 --> 00:42:18,440 Speaker 1: how the body works. It compensates for other things. So 939 00:42:18,480 --> 00:42:21,600 Speaker 1: if you have a deficiency, somewhere somewhere else is pulling 940 00:42:22,040 --> 00:42:23,839 Speaker 1: and that probably the handstring. You know what I mean. 941 00:42:23,960 --> 00:42:26,560 Speaker 1: What I'm saying is is like I've been Trust me, 942 00:42:26,560 --> 00:42:28,440 Speaker 1: I've been on an injury port like you said, plenty 943 00:42:28,440 --> 00:42:30,200 Speaker 1: of times where I go in with one thing and 944 00:42:30,239 --> 00:42:32,640 Speaker 1: I come out with something else because of the injury 945 00:42:32,680 --> 00:42:35,399 Speaker 1: I went in with. So I'm healthy and I put 946 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,120 Speaker 1: air quotes up, but then I come out with something else. 947 00:42:38,680 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: That's the that's the NFL, though, smells right. I totally 948 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:41,759 Speaker 1: get what you're saying. 949 00:42:41,760 --> 00:42:43,280 Speaker 2: But at some point you have to make the decision 950 00:42:43,320 --> 00:42:44,600 Speaker 2: of whether or not you're gonna have a second kick 951 00:42:44,680 --> 00:42:45,400 Speaker 2: or active. 952 00:42:45,640 --> 00:42:48,359 Speaker 1: Right, But you won't do it off to that though. Right. 953 00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:50,400 Speaker 1: If you say you're to go, you're good to go. 954 00:42:50,520 --> 00:42:52,480 Speaker 5: Right, That was the point I was trying to make. 955 00:42:52,640 --> 00:42:55,560 Speaker 2: You could possibly there be some interrelation there from a 956 00:42:56,120 --> 00:42:59,640 Speaker 2: biomechanical standpoint of course, absolutely, one hundred percent, But you 957 00:42:59,680 --> 00:43:02,919 Speaker 2: cannot make another player active on your fifty three based 958 00:43:02,960 --> 00:43:04,439 Speaker 2: off that possibility. 959 00:43:04,080 --> 00:43:06,360 Speaker 1: Point no, And we talked about the kicker, right, The 960 00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:09,319 Speaker 1: kicker position is a little bit different than a regular position. Right, 961 00:43:09,360 --> 00:43:11,479 Speaker 1: you have a quarterback who has a throwing arm that's 962 00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:14,719 Speaker 1: not good, you make sure you have at least two backups. Like, 963 00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:16,600 Speaker 1: that's what you do, you know what I mean. So 964 00:43:17,440 --> 00:43:22,439 Speaker 1: it's things that specific positions require. Right, kickers don't really 965 00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,719 Speaker 1: require backup if you have a healthy kicker, and he 966 00:43:24,840 --> 00:43:27,560 Speaker 1: was healthy, you know. But like everybody has something coming 967 00:43:27,600 --> 00:43:30,960 Speaker 1: into a game. You know, at week eighteen, right when 968 00:43:30,960 --> 00:43:33,960 Speaker 1: the Giants have played seventeen excive me, sixteen games and 969 00:43:34,000 --> 00:43:37,200 Speaker 1: they're going into their last game, every single person on 970 00:43:37,239 --> 00:43:40,120 Speaker 1: the team has something going on with their body. So 971 00:43:40,160 --> 00:43:42,799 Speaker 1: it may not be related to another injury. But if 972 00:43:42,840 --> 00:43:45,120 Speaker 1: you have something that gets tweaked, it's probably from something 973 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:47,120 Speaker 1: that you've been dealing with that had nothing to do 974 00:43:47,160 --> 00:43:48,920 Speaker 1: with his injury. But it does because that's how a 975 00:43:49,000 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: human body works. 976 00:43:50,000 --> 00:43:51,759 Speaker 2: Very possible, we're on the same page. Those sicks can 977 00:43:51,760 --> 00:43:54,960 Speaker 2: always be interrelated. But the question, the point of the 978 00:43:55,040 --> 00:43:58,240 Speaker 2: questions had been, well you should have had Jude Mikatom 979 00:43:58,320 --> 00:44:00,400 Speaker 2: They've no active because of that. 980 00:44:00,320 --> 00:44:02,680 Speaker 1: Right, but no correct, Yeah, all right, No, I'm with 981 00:44:02,760 --> 00:44:05,400 Speaker 1: you with that. Yeah, we're absolutely on the same disagreeing 982 00:44:05,440 --> 00:44:08,520 Speaker 1: with God saying that it's separate because it's not. You 983 00:44:08,520 --> 00:44:08,920 Speaker 1: know what I mean. 984 00:44:09,160 --> 00:44:10,040 Speaker 5: I hear you, I hear you. 985 00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:12,200 Speaker 1: You have a sore hamstring going into a game, like 986 00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:14,960 Speaker 1: you know that something else might happen that's on the 987 00:44:14,960 --> 00:44:18,080 Speaker 1: opposite leg or the same leg, because your hamshring is 988 00:44:18,120 --> 00:44:20,920 Speaker 1: not fully functioning correctly. Same thing for growing, same thing 989 00:44:20,960 --> 00:44:23,560 Speaker 1: for back. All of that stuff is all interrelated. 990 00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:25,080 Speaker 2: Totally get it all right, Let's go to the defensive 991 00:44:25,080 --> 00:44:27,680 Speaker 2: side of the ball. Because despite the fact this defense 992 00:44:27,680 --> 00:44:28,480 Speaker 2: did not force. 993 00:44:28,280 --> 00:44:29,879 Speaker 5: A punt and they gave up two. 994 00:44:29,800 --> 00:44:31,480 Speaker 2: Hundred yards rushing the head coach and not going to 995 00:44:31,600 --> 00:44:34,279 Speaker 2: question about the defense. That's interesting, man, And uh, we 996 00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:36,160 Speaker 2: haven't really said much about it in the past two 997 00:44:36,160 --> 00:44:38,319 Speaker 2: segments because no one's been asked about it. So we 998 00:44:38,360 --> 00:44:40,799 Speaker 2: did get kevon Thibodeau in the locker room after the game. 999 00:44:41,400 --> 00:44:43,360 Speaker 2: I would hope he got asked about the defense. What 1000 00:44:43,680 --> 00:44:45,279 Speaker 2: lisited to what he said after the game? 1001 00:44:45,719 --> 00:44:47,360 Speaker 1: Right, defense, I. 1002 00:44:47,520 --> 00:44:50,720 Speaker 18: Got to watch the ten, got to wrap up, make tackles. 1003 00:44:51,760 --> 00:44:54,560 Speaker 19: When you love, don't give up touchdown of the game. 1004 00:44:54,760 --> 00:44:56,480 Speaker 25: I'm sure you expect to win, but it was a 1005 00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:58,319 Speaker 25: frustrating to not being able to get off the field 1006 00:44:58,360 --> 00:44:59,080 Speaker 25: as often. 1007 00:45:00,600 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 18: You know, trying to stay cloud.

Tons of answers 1049 00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:41,680 Speaker 2: as to why the defense struggled. Did jac. 1050 00:46:42,960 --> 00:46:45,759 Speaker 1: You can hear the frustration, you know, that's what the 1051 00:46:45,800 --> 00:46:48,879 Speaker 1: deflection is. Frustration. You know, that's what I think you're 1052 00:46:48,920 --> 00:46:52,319 Speaker 1: hearing from. Not him, not just him. But let's listen 1053 00:46:52,360 --> 00:46:53,840 Speaker 1: to the other interviews. I bet you there's going to 1054 00:46:53,880 --> 00:46:56,359 Speaker 1: be kind of a similar type of story. But I 1055 00:46:56,480 --> 00:46:58,960 Speaker 1: understand it. I've been a player, bro like I've been 1056 00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:01,840 Speaker 1: there on an Owen who start. It's really hard to 1057 00:47:01,880 --> 00:47:03,960 Speaker 1: talk to the media right after a game like this. 1058 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:07,520 Speaker 1: It's really hard to kind of compress your feelings and 1059 00:47:07,560 --> 00:47:09,200 Speaker 1: not you know, be like, yo, get out of my face, 1060 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:11,560 Speaker 1: because that's how they feel. That's how they feel. I've 1061 00:47:11,560 --> 00:47:13,800 Speaker 1: been there, bro, I don't be wanting to talk. I 1062 00:47:13,840 --> 00:47:16,600 Speaker 1: remember guys chasing me in the locker room saying, jac 1063 00:47:16,760 --> 00:47:18,279 Speaker 1: you have to talk. You're the captain. It's like, bro, 1064 00:47:19,239 --> 00:47:21,319 Speaker 1: come on, you know, and I had to do what. 1065 00:47:21,600 --> 00:47:23,200 Speaker 5: You did, and you did a good job with it. 1066 00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:25,200 Speaker 5: Thought I remember talking to the games. 1067 00:47:25,640 --> 00:47:26,960 Speaker 1: I think I did a little better than what he 1068 00:47:27,120 --> 00:47:28,920 Speaker 1: just did, you know what I mean. But this is 1069 00:47:28,960 --> 00:47:32,239 Speaker 1: the frustration with an own two start. You know what 1070 00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:34,880 Speaker 1: the Giants did last year, you know, the frustration of 1071 00:47:34,920 --> 00:47:38,000 Speaker 1: the question, the challenging questions from the New York media. 1072 00:47:38,120 --> 00:47:40,600 Speaker 1: You know, that's the thing about the Giants. The Giants 1073 00:47:40,600 --> 00:47:44,800 Speaker 1: have a great slew of beat reporters that ask those 1074 00:47:45,000 --> 00:47:48,640 Speaker 1: tough questions every single week. And I think the guys 1075 00:47:48,680 --> 00:47:51,200 Speaker 1: are just taking kind of what day Balls approach is 1076 00:47:51,280 --> 00:47:53,640 Speaker 1: kind of being pc, not given too much, and then 1077 00:47:53,680 --> 00:47:56,000 Speaker 1: always deflecting on saying let me look at the film, 1078 00:47:56,000 --> 00:47:59,040 Speaker 1: which is always good because you don't really exactly know 1079 00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,000 Speaker 1: what happened on every and that's until you watched a film, 1080 00:48:02,120 --> 00:48:04,600 Speaker 1: So I don't. I'm not minded. It's a little comical. 1081 00:48:04,640 --> 00:48:06,600 Speaker 1: I was laughing during some of the answers, you know, 1082 00:48:06,640 --> 00:48:09,600 Speaker 1: because I see the frustration. That's what I'm hearing in 1083 00:48:09,640 --> 00:48:11,880 Speaker 1: his voice. It's deflection, but it's really frustration. 1084 00:48:12,400 --> 00:48:12,680 Speaker 3: All Right. 1085 00:48:12,719 --> 00:48:14,759 Speaker 2: We have Paul Latino joining us on the phone. He 1086 00:48:14,880 --> 00:48:18,200 Speaker 2: just exited the locker room down there in DC after 1087 00:48:18,200 --> 00:48:21,120 Speaker 2: the twenty one to eighteen loss. Paul, I'll leave it 1088 00:48:21,160 --> 00:48:23,880 Speaker 2: open for you. What struck you about your experience in 1089 00:48:23,880 --> 00:48:25,000 Speaker 2: the locker room after the game? 1090 00:48:25,880 --> 00:48:28,520 Speaker 10: First thing, First, do you know how pride fulmer leak 1091 00:48:28,600 --> 00:48:32,719 Speaker 10: neighbors is. He was stoic in his locker after the game. 1092 00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:36,799 Speaker 10: He just sat there, took off his jersey and just 1093 00:48:36,840 --> 00:48:40,000 Speaker 10: sat there at his locker. And I didn't time it. 1094 00:48:40,160 --> 00:48:43,080 Speaker 10: I probably should have, but he just sat there and 1095 00:48:43,120 --> 00:48:47,759 Speaker 10: did not speak and was like mesmerized in a zen 1096 00:48:48,040 --> 00:48:51,279 Speaker 10: like trance, so upset of himself. And we know he's 1097 00:48:51,280 --> 00:48:54,600 Speaker 10: got great pride and he's always beating himself up whenever 1098 00:48:54,640 --> 00:48:59,400 Speaker 10: he doesn't make a play. Finally, after quite a while, 1099 00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:03,719 Speaker 10: he then got undressed, went to the shower, came back out, 1100 00:49:03,800 --> 00:49:07,280 Speaker 10: got dressed, and there was very polite, respectful, and talked 1101 00:49:07,280 --> 00:49:09,560 Speaker 10: to the media for I don't know good eight minutes 1102 00:49:09,680 --> 00:49:14,640 Speaker 10: or so, answered every question and of course explained how 1103 00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,439 Speaker 10: he can't live down the one drop on fourth down 1104 00:49:18,480 --> 00:49:20,840 Speaker 10: at the end, it's saying he has to make that catch. 1105 00:49:21,080 --> 00:49:23,279 Speaker 10: He knows he's got to make that catch, and it's 1106 00:49:23,280 --> 00:49:25,120 Speaker 10: going to haunt him and he's not going to be 1107 00:49:25,120 --> 00:49:27,680 Speaker 10: able to get over it, even though he did catch 1108 00:49:27,680 --> 00:49:30,920 Speaker 10: a touchdown and ten passes for well over one hundred yards. 1109 00:49:31,160 --> 00:49:33,000 Speaker 10: But what else would you expect him to say, John, 1110 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:35,080 Speaker 10: Because after all, you and I have been dealing with 1111 00:49:35,120 --> 00:49:37,160 Speaker 10: this guy now for the better part of the summer. 1112 00:49:37,280 --> 00:49:38,919 Speaker 2: Yeah, and we will have that five We have about 1113 00:49:38,960 --> 00:49:41,000 Speaker 2: five minutes of Malik Neighbors sound. We're going to get 1114 00:49:41,040 --> 00:49:44,359 Speaker 2: that for everybody on our network after this segment with Paul, 1115 00:49:45,160 --> 00:49:47,120 Speaker 2: What did you get from some of the defensive guys, 1116 00:49:47,160 --> 00:49:51,080 Speaker 2: Paul in terms of an explanation for how they frankly 1117 00:49:51,120 --> 00:49:52,400 Speaker 2: played so poorly today? 1118 00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:56,879 Speaker 10: Well, very please with the red zone. I mean, let's say, 1119 00:49:56,920 --> 00:50:00,480 Speaker 10: sit the Washington Commander's got inside the fifth team or 1120 00:50:00,560 --> 00:50:05,600 Speaker 10: better six times and had six field goals, but obviously 1121 00:50:05,880 --> 00:50:08,200 Speaker 10: not good enough on third down. I'm sure you have 1122 00:50:08,239 --> 00:50:12,440 Speaker 10: the numbers there. Just unacceptable on third down. A number 1123 00:50:12,440 --> 00:50:16,359 Speaker 10: of tough plays unacceptable and that's what the guys were 1124 00:50:16,400 --> 00:50:19,640 Speaker 10: hopping on that that just should not happen. And there 1125 00:50:19,640 --> 00:50:23,040 Speaker 10: were some mistakes and assessment, some mistakes and some fits, 1126 00:50:23,760 --> 00:50:26,440 Speaker 10: and guys like like, that's the stuff that's got to 1127 00:50:26,480 --> 00:50:29,720 Speaker 10: be cleaned up. Because they played hard, there's no question 1128 00:50:29,800 --> 00:50:32,120 Speaker 10: about that. Nobody said they ran out of gas either 1129 00:50:32,120 --> 00:50:35,000 Speaker 10: at the end, and they were given that opportunity. A 1130 00:50:35,080 --> 00:50:37,480 Speaker 10: number of players were given that chance to say, well, 1131 00:50:37,880 --> 00:50:40,799 Speaker 10: maybe after a very tough, nip and tough cover war 1132 00:50:40,880 --> 00:50:43,800 Speaker 10: kind of game, maybe you just ran out of gas. No, 1133 00:50:44,080 --> 00:50:47,399 Speaker 10: the guys. The guys refused to say that. They're still 1134 00:50:47,520 --> 00:50:51,120 Speaker 10: very optimistic that there's a lot here. They're very pleased 1135 00:50:51,120 --> 00:50:54,880 Speaker 10: at the pass rush picked up significantly, but at the 1136 00:50:54,920 --> 00:50:57,680 Speaker 10: same time, when push came to shove, they wound up 1137 00:50:57,719 --> 00:50:59,960 Speaker 10: giving up more points than they had. I don't think 1138 00:51:00,080 --> 00:51:02,640 Speaker 10: any of them would. In fact, I tell you none 1139 00:51:02,680 --> 00:51:06,480 Speaker 10: of them said it, but I personally believe that had 1140 00:51:06,520 --> 00:51:10,040 Speaker 10: they had access to a field goal kicker, this thing 1141 00:51:10,160 --> 00:51:11,720 Speaker 10: was probably going to come out differently. 1142 00:51:12,480 --> 00:51:14,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, Paul, when you were talking about, you know, the 1143 00:51:14,920 --> 00:51:17,839 Speaker 1: defense and getting off the field on third down, there 1144 00:51:17,920 --> 00:51:20,160 Speaker 1: was a lot of penalties, well, not a lot, there was, 1145 00:51:20,200 --> 00:51:23,359 Speaker 1: there were some penalties on third down, especially I think 1146 00:51:23,400 --> 00:51:26,880 Speaker 1: the second to last drive by the Commanders where they 1147 00:51:26,920 --> 00:51:30,000 Speaker 1: would burns out a sack and it was negated by 1148 00:51:30,640 --> 00:51:32,960 Speaker 1: a holding call on Drew Phillips, who I think Drew 1149 00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:35,279 Speaker 1: Phillips had a heck of a game, and that's kind 1150 00:51:35,280 --> 00:51:38,399 Speaker 1: of like the scenario. And if you look at today's game, 1151 00:51:38,719 --> 00:51:41,759 Speaker 1: a lot of players who played very well made kind 1152 00:51:41,760 --> 00:51:45,080 Speaker 1: of those mistakes at a crucial point of the game, 1153 00:51:45,480 --> 00:51:48,719 Speaker 1: which ended up being kind of like the overall like 1154 00:51:48,840 --> 00:51:51,799 Speaker 1: outcome of the game. Good players playing. 1155 00:51:51,719 --> 00:51:56,319 Speaker 10: Problem Jason right is that decisive mistakes were made at 1156 00:51:56,360 --> 00:51:59,640 Speaker 10: critical times and it really does a lot to losh 1157 00:51:59,680 --> 00:52:02,319 Speaker 10: your win. So much of the good right that they 1158 00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:06,520 Speaker 10: did have, I think I think the one thing that 1159 00:52:06,520 --> 00:52:09,680 Speaker 10: that really kind of troubled me is that on the 1160 00:52:09,800 --> 00:52:12,839 Speaker 10: last drive, the pass to Noel Brown that got them 1161 00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:16,560 Speaker 10: across midfield. I had asked Jason Pinnott, what is said 1162 00:52:16,680 --> 00:52:20,360 Speaker 10: that they saw there? Was they're a buster? What exactly happened? 1163 00:52:20,360 --> 00:52:22,360 Speaker 10: He was wide open in the middle of the field. 1164 00:52:22,800 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 10: But that was such a gas play that, you know, 1165 00:52:25,600 --> 00:52:28,760 Speaker 10: put the commanders in position to then you know, finish 1166 00:52:28,800 --> 00:52:31,480 Speaker 10: the game with that field goal. And he just said, look, 1167 00:52:31,840 --> 00:52:35,000 Speaker 10: he just got opened. Didn't seem to think that it 1168 00:52:35,040 --> 00:52:36,800 Speaker 10: was a bust. It was just to play that the 1169 00:52:36,840 --> 00:52:37,560 Speaker 10: commander's bay. 1170 00:52:37,880 --> 00:52:40,880 Speaker 1: But you say that, right, And yes, there was a 1171 00:52:40,960 --> 00:52:43,160 Speaker 1: huge cushion by fly. I don't know exactly what defense 1172 00:52:43,200 --> 00:52:46,000 Speaker 1: they were in. But then after that play, Paul, there 1173 00:52:46,000 --> 00:52:48,040 Speaker 1: was an eleven yard run by Robinson and it was 1174 00:52:48,080 --> 00:52:51,440 Speaker 1: a fourteen yard run by Daniels. It's like the Giants 1175 00:52:51,480 --> 00:52:54,600 Speaker 1: had a lot of opportunities throughout the game to create 1176 00:52:54,640 --> 00:52:56,839 Speaker 1: stops on third down, to create stops on whatever down 1177 00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,319 Speaker 1: it was, and it was a whole bunch of missed opportunities. 1178 00:52:59,320 --> 00:53:01,840 Speaker 1: And I think some guy played extremely well on defense, 1179 00:53:02,239 --> 00:53:04,319 Speaker 1: but other guys like look, and I'm gonna call his 1180 00:53:04,400 --> 00:53:06,239 Speaker 1: name out because I love Bobbio Carrikett. I love the 1181 00:53:06,239 --> 00:53:08,279 Speaker 1: way he plays, but he has to show up a 1182 00:53:08,280 --> 00:53:10,520 Speaker 1: little bit more because he's that good of a player 1183 00:53:10,920 --> 00:53:12,560 Speaker 1: and I need to see a little bit more out 1184 00:53:12,560 --> 00:53:15,960 Speaker 1: of him. Bobby is phenomenal. He's been a little quiet 1185 00:53:16,000 --> 00:53:18,920 Speaker 1: these first two weeks and the Giants need their defense 1186 00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:22,959 Speaker 1: to lead their team. That's the Giants MO. We talked 1187 00:53:22,960 --> 00:53:25,680 Speaker 1: about the hundred right, the hundred players last week? Right, 1188 00:53:25,960 --> 00:53:30,080 Speaker 1: who did they introduce last They introduced the linebackers. Because 1189 00:53:30,200 --> 00:53:34,879 Speaker 1: the linebackers, the defensive units of the Giants historically has 1190 00:53:34,960 --> 00:53:38,239 Speaker 1: led their teams to championships. And they have to show up. 1191 00:53:38,480 --> 00:53:40,920 Speaker 1: Bobby O. Carrikett has to show up. Kevon Thibodeau has 1192 00:53:40,960 --> 00:53:44,719 Speaker 1: to show up. Brian Burns was impactful sack of his 1193 00:53:44,800 --> 00:53:47,880 Speaker 1: late and again got negated Bob Penalty. Like, these guys 1194 00:53:47,920 --> 00:53:50,239 Speaker 1: need to show up on a consistent basis because you 1195 00:53:50,280 --> 00:53:53,880 Speaker 1: know what, the Giants offense probably will struggle throughout the 1196 00:53:53,920 --> 00:53:57,080 Speaker 1: first half of the season, but the defense, Shane Bowen, 1197 00:53:57,320 --> 00:53:59,239 Speaker 1: the guys on the defensive side of the ball, they 1198 00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:01,920 Speaker 1: have to play than they have been playing. That's what 1199 00:54:01,960 --> 00:54:04,520 Speaker 1: they have to do, Paul, and I think they're capable 1200 00:54:04,520 --> 00:54:06,480 Speaker 1: of doing it because I've seen it from every single 1201 00:54:06,520 --> 00:54:08,879 Speaker 1: one of them. I've seen Keayvon Tabodeau have great games 1202 00:54:08,920 --> 00:54:11,719 Speaker 1: against the Commanders. I've seen them frustrate them close. They 1203 00:54:11,719 --> 00:54:14,680 Speaker 1: call him the closer because what he did against the Commanders. 1204 00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:18,400 Speaker 1: Brian Burns we've seen him dominate games over there in Carolina. 1205 00:54:18,719 --> 00:54:20,560 Speaker 1: We haven't seen it from Yes, there's only two games 1206 00:54:20,560 --> 00:54:23,640 Speaker 1: in Dexter, Lawrence. We've seen him dominate the first quarter 1207 00:54:23,719 --> 00:54:26,480 Speaker 1: of the Vikings game. Like, I'm just expecting more from 1208 00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:29,480 Speaker 1: the defense because I know they can do more, Paul. 1209 00:54:29,719 --> 00:54:31,960 Speaker 1: That's what I'm That's why I'm I'm feeling it right 1210 00:54:32,000 --> 00:54:32,759 Speaker 1: now because of that. 1211 00:54:33,000 --> 00:54:36,280 Speaker 10: I did talk to Okera Kay and Thibodeaux and Burns, 1212 00:54:36,640 --> 00:54:40,239 Speaker 10: and all three of those guys gave point fingers at 1213 00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:43,759 Speaker 10: themselves saying, you know, I could have made more plays, 1214 00:54:44,200 --> 00:54:46,400 Speaker 10: I could have made some better fits. I left some 1215 00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:48,960 Speaker 10: plays out there. All three of those guys said that, 1216 00:54:49,280 --> 00:54:52,480 Speaker 10: in addition to saying that overall, the defense has to 1217 00:54:52,520 --> 00:54:55,759 Speaker 10: do better and they understand that. So I think that 1218 00:54:55,840 --> 00:54:57,720 Speaker 10: they would absolutely welcome your comments. 1219 00:54:57,960 --> 00:55:00,640 Speaker 2: Final question, Paul, But before he on the train, we 1220 00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:02,640 Speaker 2: already heard from Brian Dable and Graham Gonna on the 1221 00:55:02,640 --> 00:55:05,680 Speaker 2: postgame show talking about the decision to have him active 1222 00:55:05,760 --> 00:55:08,399 Speaker 2: and then the hamstring injury, whether or not they could 1223 00:55:08,440 --> 00:55:12,640 Speaker 2: have had Jude mikatom Nay active for this game, anything 1224 00:55:12,680 --> 00:55:15,400 Speaker 2: else you gleam from that situation rolling the locker room 1225 00:55:15,440 --> 00:55:15,839 Speaker 2: post game. 1226 00:55:16,840 --> 00:55:18,839 Speaker 10: No, the only thing I know is that when Gno 1227 00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:21,640 Speaker 10: passed by me in the locker, he seemed to think 1228 00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:25,080 Speaker 10: that it wasn't going to be long term. But obviously 1229 00:55:25,120 --> 00:55:28,399 Speaker 10: he was distraught and disappointed. And you know, as far 1230 00:55:28,400 --> 00:55:30,640 Speaker 10: as Jamie Gellens concerned, you know, he was a kicker 1231 00:55:30,760 --> 00:55:36,239 Speaker 10: slash punter in college, but you know that's a big 1232 00:55:36,239 --> 00:55:38,840 Speaker 10: difference than the NFL. Only one for two on field 1233 00:55:38,880 --> 00:55:42,200 Speaker 10: goals in his NFL career, and obviously the Giants felt 1234 00:55:42,239 --> 00:55:44,279 Speaker 10: like they were not going to not going to call 1235 00:55:44,320 --> 00:55:46,560 Speaker 10: on him in the second half of this game when 1236 00:55:46,560 --> 00:55:47,759 Speaker 10: the game was extremely tight. 1237 00:55:48,080 --> 00:55:50,319 Speaker 2: Paul, appreciate it, my friend. Have a safe trip back 1238 00:55:50,400 --> 00:55:51,560 Speaker 2: up here, and we'll see you during the week. 1239 00:55:51,640 --> 00:55:51,799 Speaker 3: Right. 1240 00:55:52,320 --> 00:55:53,920 Speaker 10: Yeah, the bus is about to leave, John B. 1241 00:55:54,080 --> 00:55:54,800 Speaker 1: Well, go Paully. 1242 00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:57,120 Speaker 2: Giants football brought to you by our local Ford stores. 1243 00:55:57,160 --> 00:55:59,200 Speaker 2: One engine drives his team for current offers is at 1244 00:55:59,239 --> 00:56:01,200 Speaker 2: buy fod now dot com.

Malakue Neighbors who played an 1255 00:56:28,520 --> 00:56:31,839 Speaker 2: excellent game, best game obviously of his very young career. 1256 00:56:31,880 --> 00:56:33,759 Speaker 2: It's only a second game, but in the game he 1257 00:56:33,840 --> 00:56:38,160 Speaker 2: finished with ten catches.

I'm sure he was asked about that a 1264 00:56:54,239 --> 00:56:55,879 Speaker 2: ton when he talked to the media after the game. 1265 00:56:56,040 --> 00:56:57,640 Speaker 1: Let's listen in. 1266 00:56:57,120 --> 00:56:59,480 Speaker 25: The league, if you can describe the kind of up 1267 00:57:00,360 --> 00:57:02,319 Speaker 25: that you felt to me and making as many plays 1268 00:57:02,360 --> 00:57:02,759 Speaker 25: as you did. 1269 00:57:02,800 --> 00:57:03,840 Speaker 18: But I didn't know how hard. 1270 00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:04,799 Speaker 19: You are on yourself. 1271 00:57:04,600 --> 00:57:08,520 Speaker 25: You don't think just one play, So yeah, could you 1272 00:57:08,600 --> 00:57:11,200 Speaker 25: describe the kind of open down emotions that you go 1273 00:57:11,320 --> 00:57:11,920 Speaker 25: through when. 1274 00:57:11,800 --> 00:57:13,799 Speaker 19: You know you make a tunnel play spreading and it's 1275 00:57:13,840 --> 00:57:14,919 Speaker 19: one that I know you want. 1276 00:57:15,680 --> 00:57:17,320 Speaker 18: I mean, there's really not know up and down.

And he pounds 1468 01:04:54,400 --> 01:04:57,160 Speaker 22: the turf his frustration with two oh. 1469 01:04:57,240 --> 01:04:57,680 Speaker 3: Four to go. 1470 01:04:58,640 --> 01:05:01,720 Speaker 2: Unfortunately from e laite neighbor, that is our Giants turning 1471 01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:03,600 Speaker 2: point of the game. Listening to Boomer and g on 1472 01:05:03,640 --> 01:05:06,360 Speaker 2: our flag substation WFN tomorrow morning in a nine am 1473 01:05:06,440 --> 01:05:08,600 Speaker 2: hour for the Giants turning point contest to first CREC 1474 01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:10,520 Speaker 2: call or to name the Giants turning point, we'll win 1475 01:05:10,560 --> 01:05:13,560 Speaker 2: two tickets to an upcoming Giants home game. And neighbors 1476 01:05:13,640 --> 01:05:16,720 Speaker 2: had a fantastic game ten catches on eighteen targets one 1477 01:05:16,760 --> 01:05:18,720 Speaker 2: hundred and twenty seven yards in a touchdown long of 1478 01:05:18,800 --> 01:05:24,680 Speaker 2: twenty eight. But that pass, if completed, would have given 1479 01:05:24,760 --> 01:05:28,000 Speaker 2: the Giants a first down in the fourth quarter was 1480 01:05:28,040 --> 01:05:30,919 Speaker 2: the Giants' final drive on offense. They had it fourth 1481 01:05:31,000 --> 01:05:33,640 Speaker 2: and four on that drive on the Washington twenty two 1482 01:05:33,760 --> 01:05:36,320 Speaker 2: yard line with just two o nine to go. Jac 1483 01:05:36,440 --> 01:05:37,960 Speaker 2: that would have given him the first down, he would 1484 01:05:37,960 --> 01:05:39,840 Speaker 2: have been out of bounds one more play. You get 1485 01:05:39,880 --> 01:05:41,680 Speaker 2: to the two minute warning, the commanders have to start 1486 01:05:41,680 --> 01:05:45,040 Speaker 2: burning timeouts, even if you still have to go another 1487 01:05:45,120 --> 01:05:47,720 Speaker 2: eighteen or so yards or twenty or so yards for 1488 01:05:47,880 --> 01:05:50,840 Speaker 2: a touchdown. But maybe when you get that close and 1489 01:05:50,920 --> 01:05:53,960 Speaker 2: you're looking at a you know, twenty eight yard field goal. 1490 01:05:54,200 --> 01:05:56,720 Speaker 2: Maybe you can trust Jamie Gillen there to make that 1491 01:05:56,800 --> 01:05:59,040 Speaker 2: if it's even shorter than an extra point. 1492 01:05:59,440 --> 01:06:02,000 Speaker 1: So so if they can convert that, this game could 1493 01:06:02,000 --> 01:06:04,960 Speaker 1: have ended very differently. Yeah. Absolutely, But there's no guarantee, 1494 01:06:05,160 --> 01:06:07,560 Speaker 1: like you said, you know, the you know, Giants elected 1495 01:06:07,680 --> 01:06:11,000 Speaker 1: not to you know, kick the ball after Ganeau excuse me, 1496 01:06:11,200 --> 01:06:15,240 Speaker 1: Ganeau gets injured and Gilla missed the first field goal attempt. Yep. Uh, 1497 01:06:15,440 --> 01:06:17,120 Speaker 1: you know, they didn't try to do it anymore. So 1498 01:06:17,200 --> 01:06:19,040 Speaker 1: it's not a guarantee that if he would have caught 1499 01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:21,280 Speaker 1: that ball, the Giants would have still uh you know, 1500 01:06:21,400 --> 01:06:23,520 Speaker 1: lost the game or won the game, excuse me after that. 1501 01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:25,560 Speaker 1: So you know, he's gonna beat himself up about it. 1502 01:06:25,600 --> 01:06:26,840 Speaker 1: But this is the thing about the fans, and I 1503 01:06:26,920 --> 01:06:29,120 Speaker 1: know about the fans in New York, right, They're not 1504 01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:31,400 Speaker 1: that they're gonna forget about it, but they're gonna look 1505 01:06:31,480 --> 01:06:33,720 Speaker 1: at this game as a whole body of work for neighbors. 1506 01:06:33,760 --> 01:06:36,360 Speaker 1: They're gonna be like, the kid's phenomenal. And I understand 1507 01:06:36,400 --> 01:06:38,320 Speaker 1: that he dropped the pass at the end, but he 1508 01:06:38,400 --> 01:06:40,040 Speaker 1: had a heck of a game. That's what the fans 1509 01:06:40,040 --> 01:06:42,320 Speaker 1: are going to say about neighbors. They're not complaining about 1510 01:06:42,360 --> 01:06:44,920 Speaker 1: neighbors this game. They're not. Trust me, they're not. You know, 1511 01:06:45,000 --> 01:06:47,040 Speaker 1: if you have any callers here that are going to 1512 01:06:47,080 --> 01:06:50,160 Speaker 1: complain about neighbors, please send them through Connor. Please. I 1513 01:06:50,280 --> 01:06:53,120 Speaker 1: bet you there's none. Because the kid had a phenomenal game. 1514 01:06:53,160 --> 01:06:56,560 Speaker 1: He's a new player. I expect drops from rookies. That's 1515 01:06:56,600 --> 01:06:58,240 Speaker 1: what happened. We saw that last week, in the first 1516 01:06:58,280 --> 01:07:00,280 Speaker 1: week of the season, and you know, it was a 1517 01:07:00,320 --> 01:07:03,360 Speaker 1: costly drop. But you have a chance. You have a 1518 01:07:03,400 --> 01:07:07,479 Speaker 1: lot of chances fifteen more actually this season to prove 1519 01:07:07,600 --> 01:07:10,120 Speaker 1: that you are that guy and you can make those catches. 1520 01:07:10,120 --> 01:07:11,760 Speaker 1: And he will. I promise you he will. 1521 01:07:12,120 --> 01:07:14,280 Speaker 2: They'll throw that the ball to him every time at 1522 01:07:14,280 --> 01:07:16,520 Speaker 2: the next fifteen games. They will trust him to catch 1523 01:07:16,600 --> 01:07:18,720 Speaker 2: it every time. He is the most explosive player on 1524 01:07:18,800 --> 01:07:21,480 Speaker 2: this offense, and he will be the best player on 1525 01:07:21,560 --> 01:07:23,760 Speaker 2: this offense probably for the rest of the year if 1526 01:07:23,800 --> 01:07:25,480 Speaker 2: it keeps up like this. Just an an fortunate to 1527 01:07:25,560 --> 01:07:28,640 Speaker 2: drop and an unfortunate circumstance as the Giants fall to 1528 01:07:28,680 --> 01:07:29,880 Speaker 2: the command, there's twenty one eighteen. 1529 01:07:29,920 --> 01:07:30,960 Speaker 1: I see you guys in the line. 1530 01:07:31,080 --> 01:07:32,640 Speaker 2: We're gonna get to your calls in just a second 1531 01:07:32,680 --> 01:07:34,720 Speaker 2: at eight eight eight eight oh eight one zero one nine. 1532 01:07:35,000 --> 01:07:37,800 Speaker 2: But first, another player jac that had a very strong 1533 01:07:37,840 --> 01:07:41,120 Speaker 2: game was Devin Singletary. Sixteen rushes, ninety five yards, six 1534 01:07:41,200 --> 01:07:42,360 Speaker 2: yards to carry, He had a. 1535 01:07:42,400 --> 01:07:43,200 Speaker 5: Twenty two yard run. 1536 01:07:43,240 --> 01:07:45,200 Speaker 2: He had a touchdown run as well in this game, 1537 01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:47,440 Speaker 2: called one pass for one yard, but he did have 1538 01:07:47,560 --> 01:07:51,160 Speaker 2: that costly fumble in Commander's territory that stalled one of 1539 01:07:51,200 --> 01:07:53,560 Speaker 2: the giants seven drives in this game. Let's hear from 1540 01:07:53,600 --> 01:07:54,919 Speaker 2: Devin Singletary after the game. 1541 01:07:55,360 --> 01:07:57,080 Speaker 19: Devint, You've been in this league at a long time, 1542 01:07:57,320 --> 01:07:59,640 Speaker 19: so you know that sometimes with the good that comes 1543 01:07:59,720 --> 01:07:59,960 Speaker 19: the best. 1544 01:08:00,040 --> 01:08:03,200 Speaker 25: And yeah, how do you weigh the frustration overcoming so 1545 01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:05,080 Speaker 25: close in this morning and losing it down to the 1546 01:08:05,120 --> 01:08:06,400 Speaker 25: struct and uh. 1547 01:08:07,120 --> 01:08:09,360 Speaker 17: Just gotta use it as fuel. That's really where they 1548 01:08:09,400 --> 01:08:11,680 Speaker 17: come down to when we're real close, you know, headed 1549 01:08:11,720 --> 01:08:13,840 Speaker 17: in the direction we wanna go in to. They wasn't 1550 01:08:13,880 --> 01:08:16,639 Speaker 17: the outcome that we wanted, but just gotta use this as. 1551 01:08:17,160 --> 01:08:19,320 Speaker 25: You guys did get the money game going much better 1552 01:08:19,400 --> 01:08:22,840 Speaker 25: than you did last week, and you were certainly went hard. 1553 01:08:23,320 --> 01:08:25,080 Speaker 19: That was certainly a step in the right direction. What 1554 01:08:25,280 --> 01:08:26,800 Speaker 19: was going right that you'll be able to use. 1555 01:08:26,800 --> 01:08:27,680 Speaker 18: There, y'all. 1556 01:08:27,800 --> 01:08:30,559 Speaker 17: Huh man, the big guys just getting movement. Big guys 1557 01:08:30,720 --> 01:08:32,800 Speaker 17: got the uh receivers getting in the tight ends, getting 1558 01:08:32,800 --> 01:08:35,120 Speaker 17: in on it and uh we can definitely build off. 1559 01:08:35,040 --> 01:08:36,080 Speaker 3: Of that already. 1560 01:08:36,240 --> 01:08:38,040 Speaker 25: And I have to ask you about the fumble. Yeah, 1561 01:08:38,200 --> 01:08:40,439 Speaker 25: look like the guy came in and punched it out 1562 01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:42,479 Speaker 25: from behind. You probably didn't even see him. 1563 01:08:42,720 --> 01:08:46,080 Speaker 17: Yeah, I I felt him. I tried to put double 1564 01:08:46,120 --> 01:08:47,720 Speaker 17: in trouble, but I had it in my INSI own 1565 01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:51,960 Speaker 17: you know he got can't have that. You wanna win 1566 01:08:52,000 --> 01:08:53,519 Speaker 17: in a game, you gotta win a turn over bet 'em. 1567 01:08:53,600 --> 01:08:54,960 Speaker 17: And we lost the turnover a bet. 1568 01:08:55,000 --> 01:08:57,439 Speaker 25: I said, how difficult does that, even as a red 1569 01:08:57,560 --> 01:08:58,800 Speaker 25: War to be able to put that out of your 1570 01:08:58,840 --> 01:09:01,519 Speaker 25: mind so that as the continues to progress, you don't 1571 01:09:01,560 --> 01:09:02,639 Speaker 25: start thinking about a ghost. 1572 01:09:03,200 --> 01:09:06,640 Speaker 17: Yeah, sometime it could be difficult, but you know that's 1573 01:09:06,680 --> 01:09:09,640 Speaker 17: how mentality. You next place intellient good are bad. You 1574 01:09:09,720 --> 01:09:11,240 Speaker 17: gotta make the next play your best player. 1575 01:09:11,680 --> 01:09:14,000 Speaker 25: It was a s Swong game, Nipping Tunk go over way. 1576 01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:17,120 Speaker 25: Dane Jones certainly seemed to have much more command this week, 1577 01:09:17,120 --> 01:09:17,960 Speaker 25: and I had to feel good. 1578 01:09:17,840 --> 01:09:18,280 Speaker 19: In the huddle. 1579 01:09:18,439 --> 01:09:19,040 Speaker 3: Yeah, definitely. 1580 01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:21,120 Speaker 17: Man, he was a general out there to day and 1581 01:09:21,400 --> 01:09:22,160 Speaker 17: he's been a general. 1582 01:09:22,640 --> 01:09:24,840 Speaker 18: But we definitely felt his energy today and. 1583 01:09:24,960 --> 01:09:27,120 Speaker 19: You saw some big plays out of the league neighbors. 1584 01:09:27,200 --> 01:09:29,360 Speaker 25: I know the fourth down drop is gonna haunt him 1585 01:09:29,479 --> 01:09:31,880 Speaker 25: because he's very hard on himself. But you saw the 1586 01:09:31,960 --> 01:09:33,759 Speaker 25: kind of excitement he can bring through this offense. 1587 01:09:33,960 --> 01:09:37,599 Speaker 17: Yeah, man, great player, great guy, and like I said, 1588 01:09:37,640 --> 01:09:39,680 Speaker 17: we all can build off of this. Definitely a lot 1589 01:09:39,720 --> 01:09:41,519 Speaker 17: of learning experiences in this game as well. 1590 01:09:42,400 --> 01:09:46,519 Speaker 2: Three time and as a veteran JC. No surprise how 1591 01:09:46,640 --> 01:09:48,200 Speaker 2: Devin Singletary handled that after. 1592 01:09:48,080 --> 01:09:50,960 Speaker 1: The game, Oh absolutely, and even him, you know, the 1593 01:09:51,240 --> 01:09:53,720 Speaker 1: fumble was his mistake. That's his mistake that he did. 1594 01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:55,479 Speaker 1: He said it. It was a great play by the 1595 01:09:55,520 --> 01:09:57,760 Speaker 1: defensive player, but it was on his right in the 1596 01:09:57,960 --> 01:10:00,920 Speaker 1: inside where all the defenders are. He knows a lot 1597 01:10:01,000 --> 01:10:03,320 Speaker 1: better than that, you know. He made a crucial mistake 1598 01:10:03,400 --> 01:10:06,080 Speaker 1: that ended up, you know, being very costly to the 1599 01:10:06,160 --> 01:10:08,600 Speaker 1: Giants offense, you know, and scoring points, scoring points on 1600 01:10:08,640 --> 01:10:10,120 Speaker 1: that drive of course, because they turn the ball over. 1601 01:10:10,240 --> 01:10:13,519 Speaker 1: But he's gonna take accountability, you know, And honestly, I'm 1602 01:10:13,560 --> 01:10:16,920 Speaker 1: seeing I have a lot better appreciation for this team today. 1603 01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:18,960 Speaker 1: Than I did last week. Of course, they're making me 1604 01:10:19,040 --> 01:10:21,200 Speaker 1: feel a lot better. You know that this team is 1605 01:10:21,280 --> 01:10:23,880 Speaker 1: actually a team that can do something this year. You know, 1606 01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:26,280 Speaker 1: they have a lot of talent. Daniel Jones seems like, 1607 01:10:26,520 --> 01:10:28,120 Speaker 1: you know, he may be one or two games away 1608 01:10:28,120 --> 01:10:29,920 Speaker 1: from playing like the Daniel Jones that we all think 1609 01:10:30,000 --> 01:10:33,160 Speaker 1: that he can be. Because look, let's not he's still 1610 01:10:33,280 --> 01:10:35,960 Speaker 1: two games away from excuse me, he's still only first 1611 01:10:36,000 --> 01:10:39,040 Speaker 1: two games from an injury at ACL injury, you know, 1612 01:10:39,200 --> 01:10:41,000 Speaker 1: and you looking around the league guys coming back off 1613 01:10:41,040 --> 01:10:44,000 Speaker 1: of injuries, right, Joe Burrow, how are those guys playing right? 1614 01:10:44,040 --> 01:10:45,720 Speaker 1: You know what I mean? Like you got to put 1615 01:10:45,760 --> 01:10:47,640 Speaker 1: these things into context, you know what I mean? And 1616 01:10:47,720 --> 01:10:50,240 Speaker 1: I think Daniel Jones had a huge step today, Like 1617 01:10:50,800 --> 01:10:53,400 Speaker 1: Singletary said, Singletary, he said he felt his presence in 1618 01:10:53,439 --> 01:10:54,720 Speaker 1: the locker room. He said that, he said, see me, 1619 01:10:54,840 --> 01:10:56,840 Speaker 1: he felt his presence in the huddle, He felt his 1620 01:10:57,000 --> 01:10:59,640 Speaker 1: generalship in the huddle. That are that's good signs for 1621 01:10:59,680 --> 01:11:01,080 Speaker 1: the new Giants moving forward. 1622 01:11:01,200 --> 01:11:02,840 Speaker 2: Yeah, you mentioned Daniel Jones. We have a call on 1623 01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:04,479 Speaker 2: all and I wants to talk about DJ. Let's go 1624 01:11:04,560 --> 01:11:06,200 Speaker 2: to GEO in East Rutherford. 1625 01:11:06,479 --> 01:11:06,920 Speaker 1: We'll lead it. 1626 01:11:07,000 --> 01:11:09,840 Speaker 5: Well, we'll let do git lead off here on Giants 1627 01:11:09,880 --> 01:11:10,280 Speaker 5: extra point? 1628 01:11:10,320 --> 01:11:11,120 Speaker 1: What do you got for us? Pal? 1629 01:11:12,040 --> 01:11:14,040 Speaker 16: What's going on? Fella's how you doing? We're good, Thank 1630 01:11:14,040 --> 01:11:16,400 Speaker 16: you for taking my call. I just wanted to say, 1631 01:11:16,479 --> 01:11:19,120 Speaker 16: you know, when you look at the stat line, there 1632 01:11:19,160 --> 01:11:23,559 Speaker 16: were only four offensive targets throwing the ball today. Obviously 1633 01:11:23,600 --> 01:11:26,960 Speaker 16: Neighbors had a really big day, a little unfortunate at 1634 01:11:26,960 --> 01:11:29,160 Speaker 16: the end there what happened, But they only threw the 1635 01:11:29,240 --> 01:11:31,320 Speaker 16: ball to four different people today. Do you think that's 1636 01:11:31,360 --> 01:11:34,479 Speaker 16: something that the offensive play calling they should have been 1637 01:11:34,520 --> 01:11:36,880 Speaker 16: trying to look for different receivers to try and open 1638 01:11:36,920 --> 01:11:38,439 Speaker 16: the field up a little bit, because it looked like 1639 01:11:38,479 --> 01:11:41,759 Speaker 16: Neighbors was getting really really pressed by the d backs 1640 01:11:42,080 --> 01:11:44,800 Speaker 16: and the coverage throughout the game. I just wanted to 1641 01:11:44,800 --> 01:11:45,840 Speaker 16: get your guys opinion on that. 1642 01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:47,679 Speaker 2: Not you know, I think that's a really good question. 1643 01:11:47,920 --> 01:11:49,720 Speaker 2: The tight ends didn't have a target in this game. 1644 01:11:49,880 --> 01:11:53,280 Speaker 2: None for Theo Johnson, Daniel Bellinger or Chris Manhertz, jayal 1645 01:11:53,280 --> 01:11:54,680 Speaker 2: On and Hyatt did not have a target in this 1646 01:11:54,760 --> 01:11:57,639 Speaker 2: game either. It's hard for me to say personally, JC 1647 01:11:58,360 --> 01:11:59,760 Speaker 2: until you look at the all twenty two and you 1648 01:11:59,800 --> 01:12:02,040 Speaker 2: see if anybody else is open on the play. But 1649 01:12:02,200 --> 01:12:04,559 Speaker 2: did you sense that they were trying to force feed 1650 01:12:04,640 --> 01:12:06,439 Speaker 2: the lak neighbors when he wasn't open or do you 1651 01:12:06,520 --> 01:12:08,320 Speaker 2: think Jones, for the most part, made the right decisions 1652 01:12:08,360 --> 01:12:09,080 Speaker 2: in those situations. 1653 01:12:09,240 --> 01:12:10,920 Speaker 1: No, I think there's a lot of times we looked 1654 01:12:10,920 --> 01:12:12,439 Speaker 1: them like neighbors as wide up and throwing the ball. 1655 01:12:13,200 --> 01:12:17,719 Speaker 1: You know, you know we talked about earlier. Baker Mayfield said, 1656 01:12:18,040 --> 01:12:19,600 Speaker 1: you know, they caught him with a hot mic and 1657 01:12:19,640 --> 01:12:22,160 Speaker 1: it was like, every time he's single covered, Mike Evans, 1658 01:12:22,240 --> 01:12:24,920 Speaker 1: I'm throwing them the damn ball. And that's the approach 1659 01:12:24,960 --> 01:12:26,960 Speaker 1: you should have when you have a game changer. You know, 1660 01:12:27,120 --> 01:12:29,599 Speaker 1: you you draft a guy number six overall for a reason. 1661 01:12:29,680 --> 01:12:32,360 Speaker 1: You're paying these top receivers in the league thirty thirty 1662 01:12:32,400 --> 01:12:35,679 Speaker 1: five million dollars for a reason. Whenever they get single covered, 1663 01:12:35,720 --> 01:12:36,599 Speaker 1: you throw them the ball. 1664 01:12:36,680 --> 01:12:36,920 Speaker 25: Go O. 1665 01:12:37,240 --> 01:12:40,240 Speaker 1: I'm sorry, and yes, I said it too. Right when 1666 01:12:40,280 --> 01:12:42,880 Speaker 1: the show first started, there's only four different receivers that 1667 01:12:42,960 --> 01:12:44,880 Speaker 1: caught a ball for the Giants. That's the first thing 1668 01:12:44,960 --> 01:12:47,200 Speaker 1: that I said. But then I also saw a lot 1669 01:12:47,280 --> 01:12:51,040 Speaker 1: of plays where neighbors are single covered, I'm throwing him 1670 01:12:51,080 --> 01:12:53,320 Speaker 1: the ball. Go O every time he's single covered. I 1671 01:12:53,400 --> 01:12:55,680 Speaker 1: don't care if it's twenty five times, I'm throwing them 1672 01:12:55,720 --> 01:12:57,879 Speaker 1: the ball. That's just what it is. He's that dynamic 1673 01:12:57,960 --> 01:12:59,960 Speaker 1: of a player. Whether it's five yards down the field, 1674 01:13:00,040 --> 01:13:02,160 Speaker 1: what there is, twenty five, thirty forty yards down the field, 1675 01:13:02,400 --> 01:13:04,760 Speaker 1: I'm throwing him to football. I would like for other 1676 01:13:04,880 --> 01:13:08,200 Speaker 1: players to get involved because there are teams that's going 1677 01:13:08,240 --> 01:13:10,760 Speaker 1: to run a scheme to take away neighbors, and you 1678 01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:12,760 Speaker 1: have to at least have some type of you know, 1679 01:13:12,880 --> 01:13:14,760 Speaker 1: connection with some of these guys that are on the 1680 01:13:14,840 --> 01:13:17,759 Speaker 1: roster that are viable options and will be more viable 1681 01:13:17,800 --> 01:13:21,000 Speaker 1: options when a defense schemes up against the Giants that 1682 01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:21,880 Speaker 1: take away from neighbors. 1683 01:13:23,479 --> 01:13:25,640 Speaker 16: Very true, and also just one more quick thing in 1684 01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:28,639 Speaker 16: regards to the Jamie Gillen situation. I know he missed 1685 01:13:28,640 --> 01:13:31,320 Speaker 16: that first kick, but do you guys feel that they 1686 01:13:31,320 --> 01:13:33,519 Speaker 16: should have given him another chance to at least attempt 1687 01:13:33,560 --> 01:13:35,559 Speaker 16: maybe an extra point because there were some times there 1688 01:13:35,600 --> 01:13:38,240 Speaker 16: where if Gano's in the game, you know, that score 1689 01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:40,160 Speaker 16: is a little bit different. Maybe the Giants have twenty 1690 01:13:40,200 --> 01:13:42,599 Speaker 16: four points on the board going into that last drive, 1691 01:13:42,720 --> 01:13:45,840 Speaker 16: and maybe something that in a situation like this team 1692 01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:47,960 Speaker 16: should be working on in practice with their punter to 1693 01:13:48,080 --> 01:13:49,840 Speaker 16: just give them some reps kick and field goals and 1694 01:13:49,880 --> 01:13:53,280 Speaker 16: extra points. God forbids something like this does happen, unfortunately, 1695 01:13:53,400 --> 01:13:55,240 Speaker 16: like with Graham ganout early in the game today. 1696 01:13:55,400 --> 01:13:58,320 Speaker 2: Now GI, good question, Now no question, good good question, 1697 01:13:58,439 --> 01:14:00,880 Speaker 2: good call. And I wonder and we're not there to 1698 01:14:00,880 --> 01:14:02,719 Speaker 2: see it. Obviously we're here in New York. We probably 1699 01:14:02,720 --> 01:14:04,640 Speaker 2: should have asked Tatino this. He was probably had his 1700 01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:06,920 Speaker 2: ego eye on it. I wonder if they'd go and 1701 01:14:07,280 --> 01:14:11,280 Speaker 2: go out there at halftime and kick at halftime and 1702 01:14:11,400 --> 01:14:13,160 Speaker 2: they watched to see how he was kicking the ball. 1703 01:14:13,640 --> 01:14:15,120 Speaker 2: I don't know if they did that or not. I 1704 01:14:15,200 --> 01:14:18,040 Speaker 2: got to imagine JC they did. Usually the specialists do 1705 01:14:18,160 --> 01:14:21,800 Speaker 2: go out there at halftime before the regular players come out. 1706 01:14:22,120 --> 01:14:26,679 Speaker 2: Regular players, the non special teams players parted me, sorry crab, 1707 01:14:26,720 --> 01:14:28,360 Speaker 2: good old JV. Gill And I'm gonna catch you know 1708 01:14:28,439 --> 01:14:31,160 Speaker 2: what for that if they hear about that. But uh, 1709 01:14:31,320 --> 01:14:34,840 Speaker 2: they usually do go out there during halftime and get 1710 01:14:34,880 --> 01:14:37,400 Speaker 2: some kicks in. And I know he does kick during 1711 01:14:37,439 --> 01:14:39,720 Speaker 2: the week on the side as the backup kicker, So 1712 01:14:40,080 --> 01:14:40,880 Speaker 2: it's a good question. 1713 01:14:41,280 --> 01:14:42,840 Speaker 1: I don't have a great answer for him. To be 1714 01:14:42,920 --> 01:14:47,600 Speaker 1: honest with you, yeah, I mean, do you know you 1715 01:14:47,720 --> 01:14:50,439 Speaker 1: go with hindsight, right, Hindsight is like, okay, maybe we 1716 01:14:50,439 --> 01:14:53,200 Speaker 1: should have tried Jamie Gillen. I kicked her, but what 1717 01:14:53,400 --> 01:14:56,439 Speaker 1: if you know he missed, And then it's like, do 1718 01:14:56,640 --> 01:14:58,639 Speaker 1: we should have went for to winger versus Well, here's 1719 01:14:58,640 --> 01:14:59,479 Speaker 1: a question. That's how it is. 1720 01:15:00,320 --> 01:15:03,720 Speaker 2: Let's say in theory, he makes the two extra points, right, 1721 01:15:04,080 --> 01:15:08,000 Speaker 2: and it's twenty to eighteen, your fourth and four forty 1722 01:15:08,080 --> 01:15:10,920 Speaker 2: yard field goal? Are you sending him out there to 1723 01:15:11,000 --> 01:15:12,599 Speaker 2: kick the forty yard field or are you still. 1724 01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:14,920 Speaker 1: Going for it? That's that's the question, right, And. 1725 01:15:15,080 --> 01:15:17,400 Speaker 2: I think they're forty yards I think they're probably still 1726 01:15:17,439 --> 01:15:19,080 Speaker 2: going for it there, and they have the Commanders go 1727 01:15:19,080 --> 01:15:20,639 Speaker 2: down to kick a field goal. Instead of winning twenty 1728 01:15:20,680 --> 01:15:22,800 Speaker 2: one eighteen, they win twenty one to twenty. Yeah, you know, 1729 01:15:22,920 --> 01:15:25,680 Speaker 2: and that's not as that's not a big deal, you 1730 01:15:25,760 --> 01:15:27,880 Speaker 2: know what I mean. I don't know if they trust 1731 01:15:28,160 --> 01:15:31,200 Speaker 2: Gilling to kick a game winning forty yard field goal 1732 01:15:31,640 --> 01:15:33,800 Speaker 2: in that spot. I just don't know if they trust 1733 01:15:33,880 --> 01:15:34,439 Speaker 2: him in that spot. 1734 01:15:34,479 --> 01:15:36,000 Speaker 1: To be honest with you, I agree, and you have 1735 01:15:36,080 --> 01:15:37,760 Speaker 1: to earn your coaches trust and you know, he was 1736 01:15:37,800 --> 01:15:39,679 Speaker 1: put out there really early in the game after Gano 1737 01:15:39,760 --> 01:15:42,040 Speaker 1: went down and he missed, you know, and that was 1738 01:15:42,040 --> 01:15:44,320 Speaker 1: the opportunity for him to show that he deserves to 1739 01:15:44,439 --> 01:15:47,080 Speaker 1: kick the ball. And I think, you know, we had 1740 01:15:47,120 --> 01:15:49,519 Speaker 1: a caller earlier, you know, talking about, you know, should 1741 01:15:49,560 --> 01:15:52,360 Speaker 1: they have had, you know, an extra kicker activated, and 1742 01:15:52,439 --> 01:15:55,280 Speaker 1: it's like, well, you do have another kicker on the roster. 1743 01:15:55,400 --> 01:15:57,679 Speaker 1: He just punts the ball for a living in the NFL, 1744 01:15:57,760 --> 01:16:00,760 Speaker 1: but he has kicking experience, you know. And like I said, 1745 01:16:00,800 --> 01:16:02,760 Speaker 1: you're not going to carry two kickers, but you're not 1746 01:16:02,920 --> 01:16:05,280 Speaker 1: doing that. You're not gonna have a backup kicker, Bro, 1747 01:16:05,600 --> 01:16:07,720 Speaker 1: You're not doing that. I don't know teams, what team 1748 01:16:07,800 --> 01:16:08,040 Speaker 1: does that. 1749 01:16:08,320 --> 01:16:11,679 Speaker 2: I don't know for fans that that know this. Juden 1750 01:16:11,920 --> 01:16:15,240 Speaker 2: nik Tote. He is the international player on the Giants 1751 01:16:15,280 --> 01:16:17,639 Speaker 2: practice squad. So they could have elevated and if they chose, 1752 01:16:17,960 --> 01:16:19,799 Speaker 2: But we heard from grahamgen Are earlier in the postgame 1753 01:16:19,840 --> 01:16:21,680 Speaker 2: show and he said, look, I kicked before the game. 1754 01:16:21,720 --> 01:16:23,360 Speaker 2: I thought I was kicking the ball really well. He 1755 01:16:23,479 --> 01:16:25,679 Speaker 2: thought he was good to go. That's why the decision 1756 01:16:25,760 --> 01:16:27,720 Speaker 2: was made not to elevate him and take up one 1757 01:16:27,720 --> 01:16:29,720 Speaker 2: of those active forty six spots on game day. 1758 01:16:30,200 --> 01:16:32,280 Speaker 1: Yeah, it is what it is. Hindsight's twenty twenty, right, 1759 01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:34,519 Speaker 1: I know that's the thing, but it doesn't guarantee anything. 1760 01:16:34,680 --> 01:16:37,679 Speaker 1: You know, if Gilllan would have considered continuoency kicked the ball, 1761 01:16:37,920 --> 01:16:39,800 Speaker 1: what if you'd have missed all of the field goals. 1762 01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:42,320 Speaker 1: And now it's like, all right, now, we really like hindsight. 1763 01:16:42,320 --> 01:16:45,639 Speaker 1: It's always twenty twenty. But it's those type of decisions 1764 01:16:45,680 --> 01:16:48,880 Speaker 1: that the Giants are now not making correctly this year. 1765 01:16:49,200 --> 01:16:51,200 Speaker 1: They didn't do it last year. They did it in 1766 01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:54,800 Speaker 1: twenty twenty two. They have to figure out these crui 1767 01:16:54,800 --> 01:16:57,240 Speaker 1: shoot things that happened because this is rare where your 1768 01:16:57,320 --> 01:16:58,160 Speaker 1: kicker gets hurt. 1769 01:16:58,479 --> 01:16:58,600 Speaker 3: You know. 1770 01:16:58,680 --> 01:17:01,280 Speaker 1: They got to figure out when these if rare situations 1771 01:17:01,360 --> 01:17:03,599 Speaker 1: come up, you know, and I'm sure they weighed their 1772 01:17:03,640 --> 01:17:06,320 Speaker 1: options and stuff like that. Sometimes the ball don't bounce 1773 01:17:06,400 --> 01:17:07,680 Speaker 1: your way, and I think this is one of those 1774 01:17:07,720 --> 01:17:11,080 Speaker 1: situations where they decided to go away from a kicker 1775 01:17:11,439 --> 01:17:14,800 Speaker 1: who actually showed that he didn't show up for the 1776 01:17:14,840 --> 01:17:16,960 Speaker 1: opportunity that he got to kick the ball because he missed. 1777 01:17:17,439 --> 01:17:19,479 Speaker 1: And you know, I don't think they paid for it, 1778 01:17:19,560 --> 01:17:20,240 Speaker 1: but they kind of did. 1779 01:17:20,400 --> 01:17:22,040 Speaker 2: By the way, they could have also converted a two 1780 01:17:22,040 --> 01:17:25,120 Speaker 2: point conversion. You got to kill you hit Darius Layne. 1781 01:17:25,280 --> 01:17:27,280 Speaker 2: Look it was a high ball, but it's one that 1782 01:17:27,400 --> 01:17:29,599 Speaker 2: down lane you should have caught. Hit him in the hands, 1783 01:17:30,120 --> 01:17:32,680 Speaker 2: so that would have made up for the two non 1784 01:17:32,760 --> 01:17:35,280 Speaker 2: extra points if Gilan would have kicked them anyway. 1785 01:17:35,080 --> 01:17:36,360 Speaker 5: So that would have gotten you to twenty. 1786 01:17:36,640 --> 01:17:38,960 Speaker 2: And then you get back to the same question, forty 1787 01:17:39,040 --> 01:17:41,880 Speaker 2: yard kick are you putting going out there to try 1788 01:17:41,880 --> 01:17:43,679 Speaker 2: to kick a game winning field goal in a pressure 1789 01:17:43,800 --> 01:17:46,240 Speaker 2: situation at the end of the game on a fourth 1790 01:17:46,320 --> 01:17:48,640 Speaker 2: and four, which is a not an easy It's not 1791 01:17:48,720 --> 01:17:50,439 Speaker 2: a fourth and one here, but fourth and four is 1792 01:17:50,479 --> 01:17:52,759 Speaker 2: one that you should have some confidence in trying to convert. 1793 01:17:52,880 --> 01:17:55,280 Speaker 1: Absolutely, and that play was always going to come down 1794 01:17:55,320 --> 01:17:57,560 Speaker 1: to Neighbors making that catch. They didn't double him, you know, 1795 01:17:57,840 --> 01:18:00,280 Speaker 1: they didn't double them all game, you know. And look 1796 01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:02,960 Speaker 1: the kid got opened. Daniel Jones threw a perfect pass 1797 01:18:03,000 --> 01:18:04,680 Speaker 1: to him and him right in his hands and he 1798 01:18:04,760 --> 01:18:06,160 Speaker 1: dropped the ball. Looked like he was I don't know, 1799 01:18:06,439 --> 01:18:08,160 Speaker 1: because he was kind of leaning on the way out. 1800 01:18:08,400 --> 01:18:10,360 Speaker 1: It wasn't a difficult catch to make, and he just 1801 01:18:10,479 --> 01:18:12,560 Speaker 1: dropped it, you know, and the Giants are going to 1802 01:18:12,600 --> 01:18:14,800 Speaker 1: look for him in the future. You know, the Giants 1803 01:18:14,840 --> 01:18:18,240 Speaker 1: are going to have another fourth down, whatever the case is, 1804 01:18:18,400 --> 01:18:20,880 Speaker 1: third down, critical point of the game, late in games, 1805 01:18:21,080 --> 01:18:22,719 Speaker 1: and they're gonna go to the neighbors and he's gonna 1806 01:18:22,760 --> 01:18:23,240 Speaker 1: make that play. 1807 01:18:23,400 --> 01:18:25,599 Speaker 5: All right, let's go to Franken Siasid He's up next. 1808 01:18:25,640 --> 01:18:31,439 Speaker 30: Hi, frank Hey, guys, Well, I just a heartbreaking loss today, 1809 01:18:31,479 --> 01:18:35,640 Speaker 30: because you guys mentioned it, I feel they played their 1810 01:18:36,040 --> 01:18:42,439 Speaker 30: tails off today. Thibodel stepped up and even drew Phillips. 1811 01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:44,479 Speaker 30: I mean, he did have a holding against him, but 1812 01:18:44,600 --> 01:18:45,320 Speaker 30: he made a sack. 1813 01:18:46,439 --> 01:18:47,799 Speaker 10: And I was just wondering. 1814 01:18:48,479 --> 01:18:52,600 Speaker 30: I was another another hindsight question for you about the 1815 01:18:52,640 --> 01:18:55,679 Speaker 30: two point conversions. I was going to say, we lost 1816 01:18:55,760 --> 01:18:59,840 Speaker 30: by three points, but we sacrificed six trying to get 1817 01:19:00,040 --> 01:19:02,800 Speaker 30: two point conversions. Does that still sit well with you, guys? 1818 01:19:03,080 --> 01:19:04,920 Speaker 1: Well, well, not six. 1819 01:19:05,479 --> 01:19:07,280 Speaker 2: They tried the extra point on the first one, right, 1820 01:19:07,439 --> 01:19:11,040 Speaker 2: and they missed that one, so so it was four one. 1821 01:19:11,080 --> 01:19:12,880 Speaker 2: They had Slaton right in the hands, which should have 1822 01:19:12,880 --> 01:19:16,920 Speaker 2: been converted, it wasn't. So look, it's hard for me 1823 01:19:17,000 --> 01:19:18,840 Speaker 2: to say, and I said, like, I don't know if 1824 01:19:18,840 --> 01:19:20,640 Speaker 2: they said Gilling out there at halftime to kick and 1825 01:19:20,680 --> 01:19:22,479 Speaker 2: they watched them and they were happy, not happy. I 1826 01:19:22,520 --> 01:19:24,320 Speaker 2: don't know how that went. No one was asked that 1827 01:19:25,720 --> 01:19:27,640 Speaker 2: over the course of that, you know, postgame, Sam, and 1828 01:19:27,680 --> 01:19:29,680 Speaker 2: that we've been able to play for you guys. So 1829 01:19:31,360 --> 01:19:34,120 Speaker 2: I just don't know how they felt internally about Gilling 1830 01:19:34,240 --> 01:19:37,639 Speaker 2: kicking those and without us, they're seeing how he kicked 1831 01:19:37,680 --> 01:19:40,200 Speaker 2: when he had the opportunity either away from our eyes 1832 01:19:40,200 --> 01:19:42,880 Speaker 2: a practice during the week, if they even had him 1833 01:19:42,960 --> 01:19:44,519 Speaker 2: kicked during practice during the week. I don't know the 1834 01:19:44,520 --> 01:19:46,640 Speaker 2: answer to that either. I know he does do some 1835 01:19:46,840 --> 01:19:49,360 Speaker 2: of that to prepare as the backup kicker. How much 1836 01:19:49,439 --> 01:19:51,000 Speaker 2: he does and how much he did it this week, 1837 01:19:51,040 --> 01:19:53,479 Speaker 2: I don't know that they weren't asked that. I guess 1838 01:19:53,560 --> 01:19:57,160 Speaker 2: that he did do some, And I just jc it's 1839 01:19:57,200 --> 01:19:59,120 Speaker 2: hard for us, we're not specialist here and we're out 1840 01:19:59,120 --> 01:20:01,240 Speaker 2: there watching him kick it halftime to know exactly how 1841 01:20:01,280 --> 01:20:01,920 Speaker 2: they felt about it. 1842 01:20:02,080 --> 01:20:04,920 Speaker 1: Yeah, but it's all about executing, right. You know, Gilan 1843 01:20:04,960 --> 01:20:08,519 Speaker 1: had an opportunity today to execute you know, things that 1844 01:20:08,640 --> 01:20:10,280 Speaker 1: he's done in the past. You know, they're not asking 1845 01:20:10,360 --> 01:20:11,800 Speaker 1: him to do something and he hasn't done. He's kicked. 1846 01:20:12,080 --> 01:20:14,240 Speaker 1: He's kicked the ball before, you know, and and he 1847 01:20:14,320 --> 01:20:16,759 Speaker 1: had an opportunity to do it, and he didn't convert, 1848 01:20:16,800 --> 01:20:19,879 Speaker 1: he didn't execute, you know, same thing with Slayton. Slayton 1849 01:20:19,960 --> 01:20:21,880 Speaker 1: had had the droppies in the past. You know, He's 1850 01:20:21,920 --> 01:20:24,760 Speaker 1: had had, you know, opportunities to win games and you know, 1851 01:20:24,880 --> 01:20:27,439 Speaker 1: convert second you know, two point conversions, convert third down, 1852 01:20:27,560 --> 01:20:31,200 Speaker 1: fourth downs, you know, and he has has some success, 1853 01:20:31,320 --> 01:20:33,720 Speaker 1: and he has had some drops, you know. So it 1854 01:20:33,840 --> 01:20:36,320 Speaker 1: comes down to executing, you know. And it's not like 1855 01:20:37,080 --> 01:20:39,519 Speaker 1: you know, they was out there overmatched or anything like that. 1856 01:20:39,640 --> 01:20:42,280 Speaker 1: It's just at crucial points of the game, the players 1857 01:20:42,280 --> 01:20:44,719 Speaker 1: for the New York Giants failed to execute on plays 1858 01:20:44,760 --> 01:20:45,479 Speaker 1: that were designed for them. 1859 01:20:45,520 --> 01:20:47,280 Speaker 2: I'm going to bring something else up here, Frank, which 1860 01:20:47,280 --> 01:20:49,920 Speaker 2: I think is interesting. No one's brought this up. Remember, 1861 01:20:50,040 --> 01:20:53,920 Speaker 2: Gilan's a lefty kicker. That changes all the mechanics for 1862 01:20:54,000 --> 01:20:57,519 Speaker 2: the holder too. And it's not right, not not as much. Yeah, 1863 01:20:57,520 --> 01:20:58,880 Speaker 2: you know, I guess he's on the other side too, 1864 01:20:58,880 --> 01:21:01,240 Speaker 2: You're right, But especially for the holder, he's got to 1865 01:21:01,240 --> 01:21:03,600 Speaker 2: hold the ball with a different hand. The mechanics of 1866 01:21:03,640 --> 01:21:06,519 Speaker 2: the catcher all different. So I wonder how much confidence 1867 01:21:06,560 --> 01:21:08,519 Speaker 2: they have in the hold in that situation, having to 1868 01:21:08,600 --> 01:21:11,000 Speaker 2: hold for a left kicker instead of a riding kick. 1869 01:21:11,400 --> 01:21:13,840 Speaker 30: Yep, right, But you know, I just wanted to say also, 1870 01:21:13,920 --> 01:21:16,600 Speaker 30: you guys also mentioned you could see the talent. The 1871 01:21:16,760 --> 01:21:19,439 Speaker 30: talent is there, it's just these guys. You got a 1872 01:21:19,520 --> 01:21:23,360 Speaker 30: young secondary. I mean even Carl said, you know, they're 1873 01:21:23,439 --> 01:21:26,640 Speaker 30: just leaving too much space in the secondary. They got 1874 01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:30,080 Speaker 30: to play a little tighter in the secondary for the 1875 01:21:30,160 --> 01:21:33,720 Speaker 30: past coverage. But how do you feel how do you 1876 01:21:33,840 --> 01:21:36,200 Speaker 30: feel about Daniel Jones running head first? 1877 01:21:36,960 --> 01:21:38,040 Speaker 10: Does that weary you at all? 1878 01:21:38,320 --> 01:21:40,360 Speaker 1: And thanks for the time, guys, No, Frank, thanks for 1879 01:21:40,400 --> 01:21:40,680 Speaker 1: the call. 1880 01:21:41,040 --> 01:21:43,560 Speaker 5: That's what Daniel does. I mean, he's always done that. 1881 01:21:43,640 --> 01:21:46,400 Speaker 2: I don't I can't remember how many times JC has 1882 01:21:46,479 --> 01:21:49,280 Speaker 2: yelled on the postgame show slide Daniel, slide or all 1883 01:21:49,320 --> 01:21:52,920 Speaker 2: we're watching the game. That's just the way Daniel Jones plays. 1884 01:21:52,960 --> 01:21:54,640 Speaker 2: He's going to try to get that extra yarder too. 1885 01:21:54,680 --> 01:21:56,920 Speaker 2: He's going to try to get that first down, whether 1886 01:21:57,000 --> 01:21:59,240 Speaker 2: we like it or not, whether the coaching staff likes 1887 01:21:59,280 --> 01:22:00,720 Speaker 2: it or not, That's what DJ is. 1888 01:22:00,760 --> 01:22:01,200 Speaker 18: Going to do. 1889 01:22:01,640 --> 01:22:03,880 Speaker 1: Listen, one thing that I know about Daniel Jones He 1890 01:22:04,200 --> 01:22:07,599 Speaker 1: is a tough mofo. He is tough bro. Even last week, 1891 01:22:07,640 --> 01:22:10,120 Speaker 1: when you know everybody knows he didn't play well. But 1892 01:22:10,240 --> 01:22:12,320 Speaker 1: what I seen from him, I seen him sitting in 1893 01:22:12,400 --> 01:22:15,160 Speaker 1: the pocket when a defender is about to hit him 1894 01:22:15,160 --> 01:22:17,320 Speaker 1: in his chest, and he threw a pass. Was it 1895 01:22:17,400 --> 01:22:20,559 Speaker 1: a great pass? Probably not, But that shows that he's 1896 01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:24,479 Speaker 1: a tough guy. You know, he's a tough individual. I 1897 01:22:24,560 --> 01:22:26,639 Speaker 1: think he has to be a lot smarter in protecting 1898 01:22:26,760 --> 01:22:29,280 Speaker 1: himself because the defenders and the other team are not 1899 01:22:29,479 --> 01:22:31,960 Speaker 1: going to protect you. They're gonna hit you as hard 1900 01:22:31,960 --> 01:22:34,479 Speaker 1: as they possibly can every single time you run a football. 1901 01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:36,400 Speaker 2: And by the way, that applies to Jaye and Daniels too. 1902 01:22:36,600 --> 01:22:39,000 Speaker 2: Absolutely did not slide at all in Week one. Did 1903 01:22:39,040 --> 01:22:41,000 Speaker 2: not slide at all on this game either. Drew Phillis 1904 01:22:41,040 --> 01:22:42,960 Speaker 2: put a nice helmet right on his ribcage, which I'm 1905 01:22:42,960 --> 01:22:44,800 Speaker 2: sure is going to be black and blue when he 1906 01:22:44,880 --> 01:22:45,760 Speaker 2: wakes up in the morning. 1907 01:22:45,840 --> 01:22:47,320 Speaker 5: Let's go to lou In, New Jersey. 1908 01:22:47,360 --> 01:22:47,840 Speaker 1: He's up next. 1909 01:22:47,880 --> 01:22:50,080 Speaker 10: Hey lou Hey, how you doing. 1910 01:22:50,120 --> 01:22:50,400 Speaker 3: Guys? 1911 01:22:50,600 --> 01:22:52,960 Speaker 12: A long time fans played, I could get to it today. 1912 01:22:53,160 --> 01:22:55,080 Speaker 12: While I talked about the defense a little, they gave 1913 01:22:55,200 --> 01:22:57,639 Speaker 12: up what four hundred yards today last week quite a bit. 1914 01:22:58,560 --> 01:23:01,280 Speaker 12: And it's a typical Giants game opportunities, whether it's the 1915 01:23:01,360 --> 01:23:03,519 Speaker 12: leaku missing the ball at the end, you know, to 1916 01:23:03,640 --> 01:23:06,600 Speaker 12: drop the fumble in the first quarter. So when do 1917 01:23:06,640 --> 01:23:08,280 Speaker 12: you think these guys are going to get it together? 1918 01:23:08,439 --> 01:23:11,120 Speaker 12: Because they're starting out zero and two again, so at 1919 01:23:11,160 --> 01:23:13,559 Speaker 12: some point they really need to get their stuff together. 1920 01:23:13,880 --> 01:23:16,960 Speaker 1: No, Lou you're right now. You are one hundred percent right. 1921 01:23:17,040 --> 01:23:19,240 Speaker 2: And we talked about heading into the season with such 1922 01:23:19,280 --> 01:23:22,519 Speaker 2: a young secondary. The Giants have the youngest secondary in football. 1923 01:23:22,640 --> 01:23:25,240 Speaker 2: Dory Jackson might swing those numbers back a little bit 1924 01:23:25,280 --> 01:23:26,200 Speaker 2: since they brought him back. 1925 01:23:26,640 --> 01:23:29,559 Speaker 5: But the guys they're playing a lot of snaps. 1926 01:23:29,600 --> 01:23:31,280 Speaker 2: A lot of them are first and second year players, 1927 01:23:31,280 --> 01:23:34,880 Speaker 2: whether it's Drew Phillips, Tyler Nubin or Taybanks and Cordell 1928 01:23:34,920 --> 01:23:37,960 Speaker 2: Flat's a third year guy, right, So these guys don't 1929 01:23:37,960 --> 01:23:39,800 Speaker 2: have a lot of experience. It's a new defense that 1930 01:23:39,920 --> 01:23:42,200 Speaker 2: requires a lot of communication. It's a lot different than 1931 01:23:42,240 --> 01:23:44,479 Speaker 2: what they've played the last couple of years. They were 1932 01:23:44,560 --> 01:23:46,600 Speaker 2: going to be issues earlier in the year. We knew this, 1933 01:23:47,680 --> 01:23:51,280 Speaker 2: but you hope that the rush defense and the red 1934 01:23:51,360 --> 01:23:53,840 Speaker 2: zone defense would cover some of those up. Last week, 1935 01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:57,599 Speaker 2: the red zone defense failed miserably. This week, it succeeded 1936 01:23:57,960 --> 01:24:01,120 Speaker 2: the run defense in both weeks as needs to be better. 1937 01:24:01,600 --> 01:24:05,559 Speaker 2: So right now, you're right, the defense has not been 1938 01:24:05,600 --> 01:24:07,799 Speaker 2: where it needs to be. You hope, as the Jacon 1939 01:24:08,120 --> 01:24:10,280 Speaker 2: talk about it. You've been in systems where you have 1940 01:24:10,320 --> 01:24:13,400 Speaker 2: a new defensive coordinator. How long does it take to 1941 01:24:13,560 --> 01:24:17,400 Speaker 2: really absorb that defense where you're flying around without thinking 1942 01:24:17,439 --> 01:24:19,360 Speaker 2: when you're in a new defense for the first time. 1943 01:24:19,479 --> 01:24:21,639 Speaker 1: Man, it might take a month, two months. 1944 01:24:22,000 --> 01:24:22,160 Speaker 3: You know. 1945 01:24:22,280 --> 01:24:24,880 Speaker 1: I've played for Spagnola several years, right here in New 1946 01:24:24,960 --> 01:24:27,439 Speaker 1: York for three years and then one year in New Orleans. 1947 01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:29,320 Speaker 1: My first year in New York in twenty fifteen, we 1948 01:24:29,439 --> 01:24:32,720 Speaker 1: were horrible on defense. Statistically wise, we gave up I think, 1949 01:24:32,760 --> 01:24:34,679 Speaker 1: if I'm not mistaken, we gave up the most yards 1950 01:24:34,720 --> 01:24:37,000 Speaker 1: in the league that year, and then the next year 1951 01:24:37,000 --> 01:24:39,519 Speaker 1: we were one of the most dominant defenses in the league. 1952 01:24:39,560 --> 01:24:42,400 Speaker 1: Sometimes it took a year. Basically, it took a whole season, 1953 01:24:42,640 --> 01:24:46,000 Speaker 1: a lot of missed opportunities, a lot of giant fense. 1954 01:24:46,000 --> 01:24:47,960 Speaker 5: Don't want to hear that, Jase, right what I'm. 1955 01:24:47,800 --> 01:24:52,360 Speaker 1: Saying, it happens, But what I want to see is improvement, 1956 01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:54,280 Speaker 1: and you look at the offensive side of the ball. 1957 01:24:54,520 --> 01:24:57,360 Speaker 1: I think we took a step forward and the Giants 1958 01:24:57,400 --> 01:25:01,599 Speaker 1: improving on offense. The Giants and improve from the quarterback position. 1959 01:25:01,720 --> 01:25:04,799 Speaker 1: Dame Jones did look better, he looked more comfortable now. Defensively, 1960 01:25:04,800 --> 01:25:07,120 Speaker 1: he took a step back. We could all agree with that. 1961 01:25:07,240 --> 01:25:10,320 Speaker 1: We all saw what was put on film today. The 1962 01:25:10,400 --> 01:25:14,479 Speaker 1: Commanders kind of moved the ball at ease, even though 1963 01:25:14,600 --> 01:25:18,200 Speaker 1: they created a lot of difficulties for themselves. Penalties, holding calls, 1964 01:25:19,120 --> 01:25:21,280 Speaker 1: you know, things that they did to kind of stumble 1965 01:25:21,360 --> 01:25:23,880 Speaker 1: their drives and that's what kind of held them up 1966 01:25:23,920 --> 01:25:25,639 Speaker 1: in the red zone. On top of the Giants having 1967 01:25:25,880 --> 01:25:28,360 Speaker 1: you know, real tight defense down there. But they took 1968 01:25:28,400 --> 01:25:30,200 Speaker 1: a step back. You know, I think the guys on 1969 01:25:30,280 --> 01:25:33,320 Speaker 1: defense are very accountable. I think they're high character guys 1970 01:25:33,400 --> 01:25:36,439 Speaker 1: and they're big time players like Bobbio, ca Caake and 1971 01:25:36,520 --> 01:25:39,000 Speaker 1: Dexa Lawrence. You're not gonna blank out Dexa Lawrence. 1972 01:25:39,040 --> 01:25:39,120 Speaker 3: Bro. 1973 01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:42,000 Speaker 1: He's gonna have a monster game coming up, hopefully is 1974 01:25:42,040 --> 01:25:45,400 Speaker 1: this week against the Browns. Because Dexah Lawrence. When the 1975 01:25:45,479 --> 01:25:48,439 Speaker 1: Giants come to you know, they trained over to Washington 1976 01:25:49,040 --> 01:25:53,320 Speaker 1: this week, and they're gonna probably fly over to Cleveland 1977 01:25:53,400 --> 01:25:55,760 Speaker 1: next week, and Dexa Lawrence is gonna step off the 1978 01:25:55,800 --> 01:25:58,560 Speaker 1: plane first because he is that type of guy, and 1979 01:25:58,680 --> 01:26:00,400 Speaker 1: he is the guy that only steps up the first 1980 01:26:00,439 --> 01:26:02,960 Speaker 1: He's the first person that touches that the first player, 1981 01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:04,240 Speaker 1: which is the guy that has the ball in front 1982 01:26:04,240 --> 01:26:06,760 Speaker 1: of the quarterback. The Dexa Lawrence will show up, the 1983 01:26:06,840 --> 01:26:10,920 Speaker 1: Bobbiokaac will show up. Let's hope they could play complimentary football, 1984 01:26:10,920 --> 01:26:13,640 Speaker 1: which is something that the Giants haven't done in the 1985 01:26:13,760 --> 01:26:16,240 Speaker 1: last two seasons. These two games and the whole season 1986 01:26:16,360 --> 01:26:18,439 Speaker 1: last year, they just really couldn't find out how to 1987 01:26:18,520 --> 01:26:21,120 Speaker 1: do it. Once they figured out out, now we're gonna 1988 01:26:21,120 --> 01:26:23,120 Speaker 1: start seeing some good football being played by the Giants. 1989 01:26:23,160 --> 01:26:24,559 Speaker 1: Let's go to Ambrose in Westwood. 1990 01:26:24,560 --> 01:26:27,320 Speaker 2: He's up next, So it's up ambroseh what's up? 1991 01:26:27,360 --> 01:26:27,880 Speaker 30: Great? 1992 01:26:28,200 --> 01:26:32,040 Speaker 24: Great commentary is always great calls too. I was just 1993 01:26:32,120 --> 01:26:35,679 Speaker 24: thinking at first, was originally in a call about Hyatt, 1994 01:26:35,800 --> 01:26:39,040 Speaker 24: and you know, it's not like you would have been 1995 01:26:39,479 --> 01:26:42,720 Speaker 24: a huge factor in this game, but before that, this 1996 01:26:42,840 --> 01:26:44,800 Speaker 24: kind of reminds me of the opposite of what we 1997 01:26:44,840 --> 01:26:48,200 Speaker 24: should have done last year's Jets game, where we you know, 1998 01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:52,080 Speaker 24: decided to, you know, throw out a hobbled gano in 1999 01:26:52,240 --> 01:26:54,920 Speaker 24: terrible conditions when Barkley was getting four yards a clip 2000 01:26:55,000 --> 01:26:58,160 Speaker 24: on every play at that point, you know, it felt 2001 01:26:58,280 --> 01:27:00,360 Speaker 24: almost like we did the like he did the opposite 2002 01:27:00,400 --> 01:27:03,080 Speaker 24: of what we should have done. And my little thing 2003 01:27:03,120 --> 01:27:05,560 Speaker 24: about Hyatt, I mean, I personally just like, I just 2004 01:27:05,640 --> 01:27:08,519 Speaker 24: really like the guy. And I think he's always wide open. 2005 01:27:08,560 --> 01:27:11,080 Speaker 24: I watched a lot of film and he's a baller. 2006 01:27:11,560 --> 01:27:13,320 Speaker 24: I'm curious why you think he's not seeing the field. 2007 01:27:14,479 --> 01:27:16,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, and Jalen Hyatt and Ambrose, thanks for the call. 2008 01:27:17,080 --> 01:27:19,960 Speaker 2: He had twelve offensive snaps in this game, so not 2009 01:27:20,080 --> 01:27:22,080 Speaker 2: a ton just to give you this snapcounts. 2010 01:27:22,120 --> 01:27:25,200 Speaker 5: This is Pro Football Focus is tracking. The official NFL. 2011 01:27:24,960 --> 01:27:28,040 Speaker 2: Numbers will come out tomorrow when the game books will 2012 01:27:28,080 --> 01:27:31,799 Speaker 2: get updated. But twelve snaps according to PFF for Jalen Hyatt, 2013 01:27:32,120 --> 01:27:36,600 Speaker 2: Darius Slayton forty nine, won the Robinson thirty five, and 2014 01:27:36,880 --> 01:27:40,880 Speaker 2: a league neighbors no shock top all receivers with fifty. 2015 01:27:41,360 --> 01:27:44,160 Speaker 2: So again, I think it's pretty clear right now that 2016 01:27:44,240 --> 01:27:46,920 Speaker 2: Hyatt's the fourth receiver based on the snapcounts in Week one. 2017 01:27:46,960 --> 01:27:49,799 Speaker 2: In Week two, we know Daniel Jones has a chemistry 2018 01:27:49,840 --> 01:27:53,240 Speaker 2: with Darius Slain, which they like. I think they see 2019 01:27:53,360 --> 01:27:56,479 Speaker 2: those two guys as kind of as your interchangeable speed 2020 01:27:56,560 --> 01:27:59,760 Speaker 2: receiver outside and jac early on. It's pretty obvious that 2021 01:28:00,200 --> 01:28:02,960 Speaker 2: right now they have more confidence in Slaton than they 2022 01:28:03,040 --> 01:28:05,400 Speaker 2: do in Hiatt to fill that role across some neighbors 2023 01:28:05,680 --> 01:28:07,639 Speaker 2: with Robinson obviously being in the slot. 2024 01:28:08,160 --> 01:28:11,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, it's tough because you know, when the season started 2025 01:28:11,720 --> 01:28:14,400 Speaker 1: there was a slash between Slayton and Hyatt for that 2026 01:28:14,640 --> 01:28:17,120 Speaker 1: third wide receiver. And Slayton he is the veteran. He 2027 01:28:17,240 --> 01:28:20,040 Speaker 1: is the guy that is the most proven in the 2028 01:28:20,320 --> 01:28:23,560 Speaker 1: entire receiver room, including neighbors. You know, so there's a 2029 01:28:23,640 --> 01:28:27,120 Speaker 1: level of uh, you know trust there and you know, 2030 01:28:27,520 --> 01:28:29,760 Speaker 1: I look, I love high I think he's tremendous. I 2031 01:28:29,800 --> 01:28:32,400 Speaker 1: think he'll open up the playbook, open up the field. 2032 01:28:32,479 --> 01:28:34,560 Speaker 1: And you know, as a defender, you know, if you 2033 01:28:34,640 --> 01:28:36,439 Speaker 1: have a guy like Hide on one side and neighbors 2034 01:28:36,520 --> 01:28:38,960 Speaker 1: like the other side, and you know, that's that creates 2035 01:28:39,000 --> 01:28:41,240 Speaker 1: some problems for the defensive back unit, you know. But 2036 01:28:41,360 --> 01:28:43,680 Speaker 1: Slayton is kind of that same type of player. You know, 2037 01:28:43,760 --> 01:28:45,600 Speaker 1: he's a deep threat, you know, but he has that 2038 01:28:45,800 --> 01:28:49,160 Speaker 1: veteran leadership and he also has that veteran savvy uh 2039 01:28:49,320 --> 01:28:51,360 Speaker 1: you know that you know, has him getting open and 2040 01:28:51,760 --> 01:28:53,479 Speaker 1: you know, catching balls down the field. And he's done 2041 01:28:53,479 --> 01:28:56,559 Speaker 1: it his entire career. So I would love to see 2042 01:28:56,600 --> 01:29:00,160 Speaker 1: Hyatt get more plays. But for a fourth receiver, you know, 2043 01:29:00,280 --> 01:29:03,040 Speaker 1: only playing you know, twelve snaps and not getting a target, 2044 01:29:03,160 --> 01:29:06,440 Speaker 1: that's not too far from reality around the NFL. 2045 01:29:06,600 --> 01:29:08,360 Speaker 2: No question about it. Back to the phones, Let's go 2046 01:29:08,400 --> 01:29:10,200 Speaker 2: to Cliff in Manhattan. He's up next, Ty Cliff. 2047 01:29:10,800 --> 01:29:15,280 Speaker 13: Hey, guys, uh, I think this offense deserves to have 2048 01:29:15,439 --> 01:29:16,760 Speaker 13: more chances to have the ball. 2049 01:29:17,439 --> 01:29:21,679 Speaker 1: I mean today certainly, Oh man, I mean. 2050 01:29:21,640 --> 01:29:24,479 Speaker 13: You were, you were really, especially you John. We're really 2051 01:29:24,960 --> 01:29:27,479 Speaker 13: very confident about an improved offense and I don't think 2052 01:29:27,520 --> 01:29:30,400 Speaker 13: we saw any reason not to believe in that. And 2053 01:29:30,840 --> 01:29:33,000 Speaker 13: I mean this touch this, this offense can score four 2054 01:29:33,080 --> 01:29:35,960 Speaker 13: touchdowns a game. They might not average that much, which 2055 01:29:36,000 --> 01:29:37,599 Speaker 13: would put them at the top of the league, right, 2056 01:29:37,680 --> 01:29:40,720 Speaker 13: but but they they they really have some capability there. 2057 01:29:40,800 --> 01:29:44,519 Speaker 13: And that's without with only you know, without without spreading 2058 01:29:44,520 --> 01:29:45,120 Speaker 13: the ball around. 2059 01:29:45,400 --> 01:29:49,160 Speaker 2: Uh yet, real quick, if you can score three touchdowns 2060 01:29:49,200 --> 01:29:51,320 Speaker 2: a game on offense, and you're usually gonna get a 2061 01:29:51,320 --> 01:29:53,280 Speaker 2: field goal too, you're gonna feel pretty good about your 2062 01:29:53,280 --> 01:29:55,160 Speaker 2: offense during the year. So and the fact that they 2063 01:29:55,280 --> 01:29:58,439 Speaker 2: did it on only seven possessions, yeah, I think you 2064 01:29:58,560 --> 01:30:01,080 Speaker 2: feel like I had so people tweeting mules there. 2065 01:30:01,120 --> 01:30:02,680 Speaker 5: You know, Jones thre f for a hundred two hundred yards. 2066 01:30:02,680 --> 01:30:03,640 Speaker 1: This wasn't even a good game. 2067 01:30:03,640 --> 01:30:04,960 Speaker 5: Why are they saying good things about him? 2068 01:30:05,080 --> 01:30:08,439 Speaker 2: Guys ate seven possessions, They only threw the ball twenty 2069 01:30:08,479 --> 01:30:11,080 Speaker 2: eight times, all right, It's not like he was missing 2070 01:30:11,120 --> 01:30:14,479 Speaker 2: open receivers in this game, so you know there was 2071 01:30:14,600 --> 01:30:17,200 Speaker 2: to your point, Cliff, they were just limited opportunities. And 2072 01:30:17,320 --> 01:30:19,400 Speaker 2: even though again credit the defense in the red zone 2073 01:30:19,520 --> 01:30:21,400 Speaker 2: all great, no touchdowns, twenty one points. 2074 01:30:21,160 --> 01:30:21,639 Speaker 1: Is not a lot. 2075 01:30:22,520 --> 01:30:23,960 Speaker 5: Thirty eight minutes time of possession. 2076 01:30:24,080 --> 01:30:25,720 Speaker 2: I mean, come on, like, you got to give your 2077 01:30:25,760 --> 01:30:29,200 Speaker 2: offense more opportunities if it is not a good game 2078 01:30:29,240 --> 01:30:31,240 Speaker 2: for the defense. If you walk away from the game 2079 01:30:31,640 --> 01:30:33,960 Speaker 2: and the other team has not punted the ball once 2080 01:30:34,160 --> 01:30:36,120 Speaker 2: and they have not turned the ball over once, that 2081 01:30:36,240 --> 01:30:39,160 Speaker 2: means you have let them score on every single possession. 2082 01:30:39,520 --> 01:30:42,880 Speaker 5: That is not a good defensive game, right right. 2083 01:30:43,320 --> 01:30:46,160 Speaker 13: Well, another thing about the offense. Before I ask about 2084 01:30:46,200 --> 01:30:49,840 Speaker 13: the defense, I didn't know singletary. Was that good making 2085 01:30:49,880 --> 01:30:51,280 Speaker 13: people miss in the second level? 2086 01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:51,760 Speaker 1: Pretty good? 2087 01:30:51,840 --> 01:30:51,960 Speaker 3: Right? 2088 01:30:52,080 --> 01:30:52,280 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2089 01:30:52,640 --> 01:30:55,760 Speaker 13: Oh yeah. I mean the the only difference between him 2090 01:30:55,800 --> 01:30:58,400 Speaker 13: and the other guy so far is the breakaway speed, 2091 01:30:58,880 --> 01:31:02,080 Speaker 13: which I'm he really had it going as far as 2092 01:31:02,080 --> 01:31:04,720 Speaker 13: I'm concerned, ninety five yards counts as one hundred yard game, 2093 01:31:04,800 --> 01:31:11,120 Speaker 13: you know. But on defense, you know, I saw Chapman's 2094 01:31:11,200 --> 01:31:17,839 Speaker 13: number ninety four. I didn't see Davidson or Jordan Riley. 2095 01:31:19,160 --> 01:31:22,400 Speaker 13: I don't know if they played. My question is is 2096 01:31:22,479 --> 01:31:27,040 Speaker 13: it possible that to do better against the run, they 2097 01:31:27,160 --> 01:31:31,439 Speaker 13: need something more on the first level. I know that 2098 01:31:31,680 --> 01:31:34,639 Speaker 13: Shane Bowen must have been asked about what he wanted 2099 01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:37,320 Speaker 13: from the draft and free agency, and what he got 2100 01:31:37,520 --> 01:31:40,639 Speaker 13: was some really a big increase in talent. Even though 2101 01:31:40,640 --> 01:31:44,080 Speaker 13: everybody says the back end is young, the true Phillips 2102 01:31:44,160 --> 01:31:47,280 Speaker 13: looks really good. And Tyler Newban well, I don't know 2103 01:31:47,320 --> 01:31:49,040 Speaker 13: what he was doing if he had that many snaps, 2104 01:31:49,120 --> 01:31:54,400 Speaker 13: But I mean, do they have at some point maybe 2105 01:31:54,479 --> 01:31:58,280 Speaker 13: during the week. Does Shane Bowen have a very different 2106 01:31:58,360 --> 01:32:01,560 Speaker 13: group of personnel now than he did when he was 2107 01:32:01,680 --> 01:32:04,280 Speaker 13: you know, like a world beater stopping the run? I mean, 2108 01:32:04,320 --> 01:32:06,080 Speaker 13: it's football, one on one to stop the run. 2109 01:32:06,160 --> 01:32:06,280 Speaker 24: Man. 2110 01:32:06,320 --> 01:32:07,080 Speaker 13: Everybody knows that. 2111 01:32:07,680 --> 01:32:08,160 Speaker 1: Absolutely. 2112 01:32:08,200 --> 01:32:09,720 Speaker 5: Clippreciate the call, graduation. 2113 01:32:09,520 --> 01:32:12,280 Speaker 1: You know, a cliff good call. Look the Giants and 2114 01:32:12,600 --> 01:32:14,720 Speaker 1: I said it one play where it was like a 2115 01:32:14,800 --> 01:32:17,800 Speaker 1: split zone that they ran. Bobbyo Carac looked like he 2116 01:32:17,880 --> 01:32:19,400 Speaker 1: hit the wrong hole, but he did not. When they 2117 01:32:19,439 --> 01:32:23,160 Speaker 1: showed the other view, Tyler Nuban, he was unblocked, nowhere 2118 01:32:23,200 --> 01:32:25,640 Speaker 1: to be found. But he's young. He's a safety, you know, 2119 01:32:25,800 --> 01:32:28,560 Speaker 1: and safety they're name safety for a reason. They're the 2120 01:32:28,640 --> 01:32:33,840 Speaker 1: safety valve, right And when when teams have split action 2121 01:32:34,080 --> 01:32:37,760 Speaker 1: in the backfield, that creates single gaps for everybody up. 2122 01:32:37,760 --> 01:32:39,720 Speaker 5: Front, explained the fans what split actually means. 2123 01:32:39,840 --> 01:32:41,760 Speaker 1: So if there's two backs in the backfield and if 2124 01:32:41,800 --> 01:32:44,280 Speaker 1: they go the same way, that's full flow. But if 2125 01:32:44,320 --> 01:32:47,640 Speaker 1: they go opposite direction, that creates an extra gap. And 2126 01:32:47,720 --> 01:32:52,400 Speaker 1: it basically is a single gap offense where the defense 2127 01:32:52,479 --> 01:32:55,600 Speaker 1: has to have guys accountable in every single gap. And 2128 01:32:55,800 --> 01:32:58,120 Speaker 1: there's a couple of times that they did that and 2129 01:32:58,439 --> 01:33:00,840 Speaker 1: the safeties were either a little or a little out 2130 01:33:00,880 --> 01:33:03,360 Speaker 1: of position, and you can't do that in the NFL. 2131 01:33:03,400 --> 01:33:06,040 Speaker 1: That's why when people say the speed of the NFL, 2132 01:33:06,520 --> 01:33:08,800 Speaker 1: it's not always about how fast the players are. It's 2133 01:33:08,840 --> 01:33:10,160 Speaker 1: how fast things happen. 2134 01:33:10,760 --> 01:33:10,920 Speaker 3: Right. 2135 01:33:11,200 --> 01:33:14,600 Speaker 1: Those running backs find those holes immediately, they see the 2136 01:33:14,640 --> 01:33:16,400 Speaker 1: flow of the linebackers and they're like, oh, that's a 2137 01:33:16,400 --> 01:33:19,040 Speaker 1: whole right there, and they're there before you can even blink. 2138 01:33:19,240 --> 01:33:21,160 Speaker 1: And if you take a false step in the wrong direction. 2139 01:33:21,520 --> 01:33:23,479 Speaker 1: My daughter's here and I talk about her feet all 2140 01:33:23,520 --> 01:33:25,840 Speaker 1: the time, because a false step in the wrong direction 2141 01:33:26,040 --> 01:33:27,840 Speaker 1: in the NFL, that's eight yards. 2142 01:33:27,960 --> 01:33:34,040 Speaker 2: She's a basketball player, just right, right, feet, But feet, 2143 01:33:34,240 --> 01:33:35,320 Speaker 2: they're so important, you know. 2144 01:33:35,439 --> 01:33:37,799 Speaker 1: Having your eyes in the right place, it's so important. 2145 01:33:38,120 --> 01:33:40,800 Speaker 1: And a lot of rookies make those mistakes, having their 2146 01:33:40,880 --> 01:33:43,400 Speaker 1: eyes in the wrong place, you know, seeing too much, 2147 01:33:43,880 --> 01:33:47,560 Speaker 1: seem too little, you know, And that will improve, That 2148 01:33:47,680 --> 01:33:49,519 Speaker 1: will improve. And Tyler Newman is a guy that the 2149 01:33:49,560 --> 01:33:52,519 Speaker 1: Giants can rely on. He's young, but you have to 2150 01:33:52,680 --> 01:33:55,519 Speaker 1: expect a young rookie to make mistakes. And that's what 2151 01:33:55,640 --> 01:33:58,000 Speaker 1: I saw. I didn't watch the All twenty two. Again, 2152 01:33:58,040 --> 01:33:59,519 Speaker 1: I'm not going to deflect and say I gotta wait 2153 01:33:59,520 --> 01:34:02,519 Speaker 1: to watch the field like some guys do. But that's 2154 01:34:02,600 --> 01:34:04,479 Speaker 1: what I saw from you know, the little replays that 2155 01:34:04,560 --> 01:34:06,679 Speaker 1: we get here on the Buffa in the studio WFA. 2156 01:34:06,800 --> 01:34:08,960 Speaker 2: N Jade was a Neighbors catchaway for having the bar 2157 01:34:09,040 --> 01:34:10,760 Speaker 2: live for every pregame show for the rest of the year. 2158 01:34:10,760 --> 01:34:11,640 Speaker 1: If they would have won this. 2159 01:34:11,640 --> 01:34:16,799 Speaker 2: Game, right, just saying snap cowns real quick, Dexter Lawrence 2160 01:34:16,840 --> 01:34:18,599 Speaker 2: on the defense and one again, these are unofficial. 2161 01:34:18,680 --> 01:34:20,200 Speaker 5: This is what we have in front of us right now. 2162 01:34:20,280 --> 01:34:23,919 Speaker 2: Fifty nine for him, fifty one for Nacho only sixteen 2163 01:34:24,040 --> 01:34:27,559 Speaker 2: for Elijah Chapman in this game, eleven for DJ Davidson 2164 01:34:27,680 --> 01:34:31,280 Speaker 2: and three for Jordan Riley, so more concentrated in the 2165 01:34:31,320 --> 01:34:33,400 Speaker 2: two starters. The Giants were on the field for seventy 2166 01:34:33,479 --> 01:34:35,920 Speaker 2: two snaps as a defense in this game. 2167 01:34:36,240 --> 01:34:37,799 Speaker 5: Jac that's a lot, right, somebody two. 2168 01:34:38,439 --> 01:34:41,880 Speaker 1: I mean nowadays, not really now with this fast, fast 2169 01:34:41,920 --> 01:34:44,640 Speaker 1: pace of the offense, with this offense that they have, 2170 01:34:44,880 --> 01:34:46,840 Speaker 1: you know, kind of moving the ball really quickly, getting 2171 01:34:46,920 --> 01:34:49,439 Speaker 1: up you know, it's kind of no huddle, you know 2172 01:34:49,479 --> 01:34:51,519 Speaker 1: what I mean, Like they're just moving the ball, you know, 2173 01:34:51,600 --> 01:34:54,240 Speaker 1: getting the ball Downfieldnking and Dunkin. Remember, you know, they 2174 01:34:54,360 --> 01:34:57,599 Speaker 1: they kept it pretty fairly simple for Daniels. They had 2175 01:34:57,600 --> 01:34:59,439 Speaker 1: a lot of kind of on the line of scrimmage 2176 01:34:59,479 --> 01:35:01,840 Speaker 1: throws to the running backs and to the receivers, screen 2177 01:35:01,880 --> 01:35:03,880 Speaker 1: and round a lot of scrimmage, and those plays happened 2178 01:35:03,920 --> 01:35:06,000 Speaker 1: really quick, and if it's completed, the next play is 2179 01:35:06,040 --> 01:35:08,559 Speaker 1: happening pretty fast, and you know, things get added up. 2180 01:35:08,600 --> 01:35:10,679 Speaker 1: But the Giants couldn't force them to punt the ball, 2181 01:35:11,840 --> 01:35:14,280 Speaker 1: so the game the game got a little bit longer 2182 01:35:14,320 --> 01:35:16,760 Speaker 1: on their side, so their drives were longer, you know, 2183 01:35:16,880 --> 01:35:18,760 Speaker 1: But seventy two plays, I don't think that's too far 2184 01:35:18,840 --> 01:35:19,519 Speaker 1: from the average. 2185 01:35:19,560 --> 01:35:21,280 Speaker 5: All right, let's go to Sergio and Brooklyn. 2186 01:35:21,320 --> 01:35:22,360 Speaker 1: He's up next. Let's up search. 2187 01:35:23,320 --> 01:35:26,160 Speaker 11: Yes, Hio, how are you? I watched every single minute 2188 01:35:26,200 --> 01:35:29,400 Speaker 11: of the game, and my takeaway question I haven't heard 2189 01:35:29,439 --> 01:35:33,200 Speaker 11: it from anybody, is this, how did the Giants allow 2190 01:35:33,920 --> 01:35:37,360 Speaker 11: seven times Washington to get into the red zone? That 2191 01:35:37,520 --> 01:35:41,240 Speaker 11: speaks of something with defense that needs to be corrected. 2192 01:35:41,680 --> 01:35:44,719 Speaker 11: Seven times they got into the end zone. Seven times 2193 01:35:45,200 --> 01:35:48,920 Speaker 11: Washington shot themselves in a ford a couple of times, penalties, penalttendees, 2194 01:35:49,200 --> 01:35:53,599 Speaker 11: seven seven field goals. Any other team, a real NFL team, 2195 01:35:53,680 --> 01:35:56,640 Speaker 11: excuse me, I'm not trying to sound funny with that, 2196 01:35:57,000 --> 01:36:00,200 Speaker 11: but any other teams that if they allow seven time 2197 01:36:00,400 --> 01:36:02,280 Speaker 11: again and the other team to get it to the 2198 01:36:02,320 --> 01:36:06,400 Speaker 11: red Joe, that's I guaranteed forty nine points. What will 2199 01:36:06,439 --> 01:36:08,960 Speaker 11: be done to correct it? And will the Bows address 2200 01:36:09,160 --> 01:36:10,679 Speaker 11: this specific question? 2201 01:36:11,280 --> 01:36:13,840 Speaker 5: Thank you, no, sirge I appreciate the call. 2202 01:36:13,960 --> 01:36:15,800 Speaker 2: And look, if you've been listening to us, we've been 2203 01:36:15,840 --> 01:36:18,599 Speaker 2: talking about the defense the whole postgame show. Brian Dable 2204 01:36:18,720 --> 01:36:20,679 Speaker 2: was not asked about it by the media. 2205 01:36:21,600 --> 01:36:24,719 Speaker 5: Not his fault. I'm sure that's a big concern he has. 2206 01:36:25,040 --> 01:36:27,719 Speaker 2: Because you're right, even though they allowed only seven fieldals 2207 01:36:27,720 --> 01:36:29,720 Speaker 2: in the game twenty one points, we talked about the 2208 01:36:29,760 --> 01:36:33,080 Speaker 2: time of possession offense only at seven times with the 2209 01:36:33,120 --> 01:36:35,240 Speaker 2: ball in this game, which is certainly not enough. We've 2210 01:36:35,280 --> 01:36:37,040 Speaker 2: seen games where teams have had seven possessions and a 2211 01:36:37,120 --> 01:36:39,439 Speaker 2: half JC let alone a game. 2212 01:36:39,600 --> 01:36:41,599 Speaker 1: Yep. So that comes down to the defense. 2213 01:36:41,640 --> 01:36:43,840 Speaker 2: This to me, as much as you have you know, 2214 01:36:44,040 --> 01:36:46,479 Speaker 2: the turnover by Singletary, the drop by Neighbors, and the 2215 01:36:46,479 --> 01:36:49,200 Speaker 2: stuff in the kicking game. If I'm gonna point to 2216 01:36:49,280 --> 01:36:51,240 Speaker 2: something in this game for why the Giants loss, it's 2217 01:36:51,560 --> 01:36:52,519 Speaker 2: this One's on the defense. 2218 01:36:52,560 --> 01:36:54,320 Speaker 1: To me, Yeah, I think they got it, you know, 2219 01:36:54,400 --> 01:36:55,400 Speaker 1: I think and they are I think. 2220 01:36:55,439 --> 01:36:55,600 Speaker 10: You know. 2221 01:36:55,680 --> 01:36:57,560 Speaker 1: You heard from Bobby Ocake right after the game. We 2222 01:36:57,640 --> 01:37:00,160 Speaker 1: had his audio, and it sounds like he's taking full 2223 01:37:00,160 --> 01:37:03,360 Speaker 1: accountability for, you know, not only the total yards that 2224 01:37:03,360 --> 01:37:05,400 Speaker 1: they gave up, but specifically the rushing yards that they 2225 01:37:05,479 --> 01:37:08,400 Speaker 1: gave up. Yes, Brian Robinson's a big, strong running back, 2226 01:37:08,439 --> 01:37:12,160 Speaker 1: but when you're when you're you know, cutting runs back 2227 01:37:12,200 --> 01:37:15,439 Speaker 1: and nobody's there for five yards, you know, that's not good. 2228 01:37:15,800 --> 01:37:18,320 Speaker 1: You know, that's basically the front seven, including that safety 2229 01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:19,840 Speaker 1: that's down in whatever way it is. 2230 01:37:20,000 --> 01:37:22,560 Speaker 5: Jac two hundred yards rushing is not acceptable. 2231 01:37:22,680 --> 01:37:24,519 Speaker 1: That's totally unacceptable, you know, And. 2232 01:37:24,920 --> 01:37:26,280 Speaker 5: A lot of that was traditional run game. 2233 01:37:26,360 --> 01:37:29,160 Speaker 2: It wasn't Jaden like Jayea Daniels had some scramble yards, 2234 01:37:29,200 --> 01:37:32,040 Speaker 2: but Robinson and Eckler almost had two hundred. 2235 01:37:32,720 --> 01:37:35,759 Speaker 1: Two yep over eight yards almost eight yards of carry 2236 01:37:36,040 --> 01:37:39,120 Speaker 1: n Robinson and he's a big back who's not really 2237 01:37:39,280 --> 01:37:42,080 Speaker 1: that fast, you know, like guys like Sae Kwan. You know, 2238 01:37:42,200 --> 01:37:44,160 Speaker 1: he'll have you know, twelve Carris one hundred yards, but 2239 01:37:44,160 --> 01:37:45,360 Speaker 1: he'll break a seventy yard. 2240 01:37:45,240 --> 01:37:49,360 Speaker 5: Or twenty five for one seventy one For Robinson and Neckler. 2241 01:37:49,320 --> 01:37:52,880 Speaker 1: Yeah, that's totally unacceptable, you know. And look, we talked 2242 01:37:52,920 --> 01:37:54,639 Speaker 1: about Shane Bowen defense in the past. 2243 01:37:54,479 --> 01:37:57,320 Speaker 5: That by the way is just under seven yards per carry, right. 2244 01:37:57,280 --> 01:38:00,240 Speaker 1: Which is not good at all, you know, and theients 2245 01:38:00,280 --> 01:38:01,679 Speaker 1: have to do a better job on first and second 2246 01:38:01,760 --> 01:38:04,120 Speaker 1: down to create you know, bigger third downs, and then 2247 01:38:04,120 --> 01:38:06,080 Speaker 1: on third down you've got to get the field. They 2248 01:38:06,200 --> 01:38:08,960 Speaker 1: created how many third and literally they had? I saw 2249 01:38:09,000 --> 01:38:12,080 Speaker 1: a third and thirteen at least twice literally third and thirteen, 2250 01:38:12,280 --> 01:38:15,040 Speaker 1: and they converted both of those. They converted both of 2251 01:38:15,080 --> 01:38:17,880 Speaker 1: those third and thirteens. The Giants have to figure out 2252 01:38:17,920 --> 01:38:20,559 Speaker 1: a way when they create those situations where it's third 2253 01:38:20,600 --> 01:38:23,639 Speaker 1: and thirteen, how to win fifty percent on third down? 2254 01:38:23,680 --> 01:38:25,280 Speaker 1: Giving up on defense is horrible? 2255 01:38:25,320 --> 01:38:27,320 Speaker 2: All right, Jase, I'm gonna go through this real quick. 2256 01:38:27,360 --> 01:38:28,639 Speaker 2: I'm just gonna go through the play by a play. 2257 01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:31,120 Speaker 2: I'm sure i'm gonna miss stuff here, but bear with me. Okay, 2258 01:38:31,680 --> 01:38:34,919 Speaker 2: Third and nine, first drive incomplete, the zach Ertz defensive 2259 01:38:34,960 --> 01:38:37,280 Speaker 2: holding penalty and Pinnock first down rough call. 2260 01:38:37,360 --> 01:38:38,080 Speaker 1: That's a conversion. 2261 01:38:38,840 --> 01:38:43,040 Speaker 2: I would say, close third and one past the Diamie 2262 01:38:43,040 --> 01:38:47,120 Speaker 2: Brown five yards first down, third and ten completion for 2263 01:38:47,240 --> 01:38:49,240 Speaker 2: nine yards gets to a fourth and one. 2264 01:38:49,640 --> 01:38:51,879 Speaker 5: They convert the fourth and one. Well, that's not a conversion. 2265 01:38:52,080 --> 01:38:53,080 Speaker 5: It's still not great. 2266 01:38:53,280 --> 01:38:54,240 Speaker 1: Third and fourteen. 2267 01:38:54,720 --> 01:38:57,640 Speaker 2: They allow a thirteen yard run on the play to 2268 01:38:57,760 --> 01:38:59,920 Speaker 2: a fourth and one the command this could have bea 2269 01:39:00,240 --> 01:39:02,800 Speaker 2: converted that they had a false start and that made 2270 01:39:02,840 --> 01:39:05,800 Speaker 2: them kick the field, but again got helped for those 2271 01:39:05,880 --> 01:39:08,000 Speaker 2: red zone stops. That's not you know, fourth and one 2272 01:39:08,040 --> 01:39:09,960 Speaker 2: at the four the Commanders were gonna go for that 2273 01:39:10,320 --> 01:39:11,200 Speaker 2: and try to convert it. 2274 01:39:11,400 --> 01:39:12,080 Speaker 1: They couldn't get it. 2275 01:39:12,320 --> 01:39:15,599 Speaker 2: Next drive for Washington, third and four conversion, twenty one 2276 01:39:15,680 --> 01:39:19,160 Speaker 2: yard gain, third and one conversion, ten yard gain, third 2277 01:39:19,240 --> 01:39:19,639 Speaker 2: and six. 2278 01:39:19,960 --> 01:39:22,240 Speaker 5: Daniel gets sacked for a seven yard loss. 2279 01:39:22,680 --> 01:39:25,679 Speaker 2: Next drive, third and thirteen, there's one of them, Jaydeen 2280 01:39:25,800 --> 01:39:30,679 Speaker 2: Daniel scramble fourteen yards first down. Same drive, third and thirteen, 2281 01:39:31,080 --> 01:39:33,679 Speaker 2: that little passed over the middle to Austin Eckler sixteen 2282 01:39:33,720 --> 01:39:36,400 Speaker 2: yards first down, and then they get a stop on 2283 01:39:36,479 --> 01:39:38,560 Speaker 2: a third and four when Eckler runs it. 2284 01:39:38,640 --> 01:39:39,160 Speaker 1: For no game. 2285 01:39:39,640 --> 01:39:42,639 Speaker 2: You cannot have a drive where you let them convert two. 2286 01:39:42,680 --> 01:39:45,880 Speaker 2: Third and thirteen's right on one drive and that turns 2287 01:39:45,960 --> 01:39:48,160 Speaker 2: in to one of those seven field goals. 2288 01:39:48,400 --> 01:39:49,200 Speaker 1: You just can't have it. 2289 01:39:49,439 --> 01:39:51,880 Speaker 2: You know, those are third and longs. Last week the 2290 01:39:51,960 --> 01:39:55,360 Speaker 2: Commanders they did not convert one third down of six 2291 01:39:55,479 --> 01:39:59,200 Speaker 2: yards or more zero the whole week. Those are two 2292 01:39:59,280 --> 01:40:02,760 Speaker 2: thirteen yard ones right there, first drive, second half, third 2293 01:40:02,800 --> 01:40:06,080 Speaker 2: and eight, twenty yard pass the zach Ertz first down, 2294 01:40:06,640 --> 01:40:08,920 Speaker 2: third and eight they get to stop third and one 2295 01:40:09,000 --> 01:40:12,240 Speaker 2: conversion a third and eleven failure. The bottom line here, jac, 2296 01:40:12,320 --> 01:40:14,320 Speaker 2: You're right as bad as the run game was when 2297 01:40:14,360 --> 01:40:17,240 Speaker 2: they did get him in good third and long situations, 2298 01:40:17,640 --> 01:40:20,200 Speaker 2: way too many conversions for the Commanders over the course 2299 01:40:20,240 --> 01:40:20,639 Speaker 2: of the skame. 2300 01:40:20,760 --> 01:40:22,840 Speaker 1: Well, one of the last third downs is when Burns 2301 01:40:22,880 --> 01:40:24,560 Speaker 1: had a sack and then I was negated by the 2302 01:40:24,600 --> 01:40:26,599 Speaker 1: Phillips hold. So I think you left that one off 2303 01:40:26,600 --> 01:40:27,920 Speaker 1: because you kind of got tired of it. I look 2304 01:40:27,960 --> 01:40:30,360 Speaker 1: like I did it. I got tired of going through it. 2305 01:40:30,400 --> 01:40:31,280 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna lie idea. 2306 01:40:31,439 --> 01:40:34,160 Speaker 2: Yeah, that was the third and five on the Commander's 2307 01:40:34,880 --> 01:40:37,200 Speaker 2: next to last drive. It was eighteen to fifteen Giants. 2308 01:40:37,200 --> 01:40:38,960 Speaker 2: It was third and five on their own forty five 2309 01:40:39,040 --> 01:40:41,679 Speaker 2: yard line. Burns got a sack and they got Drew Phillips, 2310 01:40:41,720 --> 01:40:43,599 Speaker 2: who a defensive holding penalty first down. 2311 01:40:44,200 --> 01:40:47,479 Speaker 1: I mean, you talk about, you know, every single game, 2312 01:40:47,760 --> 01:40:50,720 Speaker 1: there's three to five plays that determine, you know, the 2313 01:40:50,840 --> 01:40:53,280 Speaker 1: outcome of the game. That was one of them for 2314 01:40:53,479 --> 01:40:57,320 Speaker 1: sure on third down. You know, the bend but don't break. 2315 01:40:57,360 --> 01:40:59,960 Speaker 1: Defense was holding up until that third down. 2316 01:41:00,200 --> 01:41:00,680 Speaker 30: And that was it. 2317 01:41:00,800 --> 01:41:02,559 Speaker 5: I thought that was also a kind of a bang 2318 01:41:02,640 --> 01:41:03,240 Speaker 5: bang type of thing. 2319 01:41:03,280 --> 01:41:05,639 Speaker 1: Yeah, yeah, it was. It was for sure. But again 2320 01:41:06,040 --> 01:41:08,920 Speaker 1: that's kind of scenario of today's game with the defense, right. 2321 01:41:09,439 --> 01:41:13,000 Speaker 1: It was close. You know, penalties possibly, yes, but it 2322 01:41:13,120 --> 01:41:17,200 Speaker 1: was ultimately comes down to executing getting off the field 2323 01:41:17,280 --> 01:41:19,519 Speaker 1: on third downs and that's something that the Giants failed 2324 01:41:19,560 --> 01:41:22,439 Speaker 1: to do seven times out of fourteen. Today. 2325 01:41:23,280 --> 01:41:25,120 Speaker 2: Final call the show, and you guys have been great, 2326 01:41:25,200 --> 01:41:27,000 Speaker 2: by the way on the post game with the calls. 2327 01:41:27,000 --> 01:41:29,440 Speaker 2: I appreciate you guys. Let's go to Matt in Connecticut. 2328 01:41:29,479 --> 01:41:31,599 Speaker 2: He'll wrap us up on the phone today. Matt, what's 2329 01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:33,599 Speaker 2: going on? You're on Giants Extra Point with John Schmelc 2330 01:41:33,600 --> 01:41:34,479 Speaker 2: and JOHNA think you see us? 2331 01:41:35,680 --> 01:41:36,640 Speaker 31: Hey, guys, what's go on? 2332 01:41:36,760 --> 01:41:37,280 Speaker 1: What's up? Man? 2333 01:41:38,840 --> 01:41:40,600 Speaker 31: No, just a couple of things I wanted to I 2334 01:41:40,720 --> 01:41:44,160 Speaker 31: want to just touch on with the Giants. I think 2335 01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,080 Speaker 31: I heard you guys said the last segment there with 2336 01:41:47,160 --> 01:41:51,120 Speaker 31: the defense, but I was kind of trying to well, 2337 01:41:51,160 --> 01:41:55,040 Speaker 31: I feel like I was disagreeing with as far as 2338 01:41:55,080 --> 01:41:58,000 Speaker 31: what they let up last week versus this week. You know, 2339 01:41:58,120 --> 01:42:00,639 Speaker 31: last week they had one sack, this week had the five. 2340 01:42:02,800 --> 01:42:06,240 Speaker 31: And then if you follow up what the Vikings, you 2341 01:42:06,320 --> 01:42:10,479 Speaker 31: know what they did today? We're San Frian you know, 2342 01:42:10,560 --> 01:42:11,760 Speaker 31: they shut San Fran down. 2343 01:42:12,439 --> 01:42:13,320 Speaker 3: You know, took the games. 2344 01:42:13,400 --> 01:42:14,880 Speaker 2: Matt, by the way, I was going to bring that 2345 01:42:15,000 --> 01:42:16,799 Speaker 2: up in the next segment and then you can continue. 2346 01:42:16,960 --> 01:42:18,960 Speaker 2: It's a great point. You know a lot of people thought, oh, 2347 01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:21,800 Speaker 2: what a terrible loss of home to the Vikings last week. 2348 01:42:22,200 --> 01:42:23,559 Speaker 2: Do we have to look at that loss a little 2349 01:42:23,560 --> 01:42:27,360 Speaker 2: bit differently now, given that they basically whooped San Francisco today. 2350 01:42:27,560 --> 01:42:28,160 Speaker 1: They whooped them. 2351 01:42:28,320 --> 01:42:31,760 Speaker 31: Yeah, right, And I think I heard you say. I 2352 01:42:31,920 --> 01:42:34,599 Speaker 31: just jotted it down. I thought you said the Giants 2353 01:42:34,680 --> 01:42:36,559 Speaker 31: had thirty eight minutes with the ball. 2354 01:42:36,840 --> 01:42:39,360 Speaker 1: No, no, no, the the Commanders had thirty eight minutes 2355 01:42:39,400 --> 01:42:39,800 Speaker 1: with the balls. 2356 01:42:39,880 --> 01:42:42,240 Speaker 2: I got and and the Giants just had twenty two 2357 01:42:42,280 --> 01:42:45,000 Speaker 2: minutes with the ball and only seven possessions the whole game. 2358 01:42:45,800 --> 01:42:48,600 Speaker 31: Yep, okay, that was that was on me. That's and 2359 01:42:48,640 --> 01:42:51,000 Speaker 31: then I want to touch base real quick on just 2360 01:42:51,240 --> 01:42:54,559 Speaker 31: on the kicking situation there. Yes, I heard you, guys, 2361 01:42:54,840 --> 01:42:56,439 Speaker 31: you know you brought up a great point on the 2362 01:42:57,600 --> 01:43:01,040 Speaker 31: switching over to a lefty kicking. I didn't see what 2363 01:43:01,120 --> 01:43:03,640 Speaker 31: they did, honestly, I missed that first extra point they 2364 01:43:03,720 --> 01:43:08,000 Speaker 31: went with that they missed. But isn't he the holder 2365 01:43:08,840 --> 01:43:10,960 Speaker 31: when what's his name? 2366 01:43:11,760 --> 01:43:11,960 Speaker 1: Yeah? 2367 01:43:12,080 --> 01:43:15,960 Speaker 2: Yeah, was making I know, No, Matt, you make a 2368 01:43:15,960 --> 01:43:17,360 Speaker 2: good point because I only brought up the fact that 2369 01:43:17,400 --> 01:43:19,439 Speaker 2: it was a lefty and I mentioned Drew locked, But 2370 01:43:19,520 --> 01:43:21,200 Speaker 2: I did not bring up a point that you lost 2371 01:43:21,240 --> 01:43:24,880 Speaker 2: that normally the holder. Dude, I should have said that, Matt. 2372 01:43:25,000 --> 01:43:26,720 Speaker 2: You make a great point. So you not only have 2373 01:43:27,000 --> 01:43:29,840 Speaker 2: a lefty kicker, you have the backup holder on top 2374 01:43:29,840 --> 01:43:31,840 Speaker 2: of that. Matt, that is an excellent, excellent point. 2375 01:43:31,960 --> 01:43:34,719 Speaker 1: How many reps you think Drew Locke has taken at holder? 2376 01:43:35,120 --> 01:43:37,720 Speaker 2: I wonder if he held. I wonder if he held 2377 01:43:37,760 --> 01:43:39,160 Speaker 2: for Seattle last year behind Geno. 2378 01:43:39,240 --> 01:43:39,559 Speaker 1: I don't. 2379 01:43:39,800 --> 01:43:41,760 Speaker 5: I don't know the answer to that. I'm not even 2380 01:43:41,800 --> 01:43:42,720 Speaker 5: sure I know how to look that up. 2381 01:43:42,760 --> 01:43:46,240 Speaker 12: To be honest with you, I think they improved. 2382 01:43:46,560 --> 01:43:49,040 Speaker 31: Like last week was terrible to watch. I was just 2383 01:43:49,160 --> 01:43:51,920 Speaker 31: so you know, but this week I think Jones definitely 2384 01:43:51,960 --> 01:43:55,599 Speaker 31: stepped up big time. You know, I know he missed 2385 01:43:55,600 --> 01:43:58,920 Speaker 31: a lot of plays. The neighbors missed that last fourth 2386 01:43:59,000 --> 01:44:02,120 Speaker 31: down that was that was a bad one. But but 2387 01:44:02,240 --> 01:44:04,200 Speaker 31: I thought he played a lot better. You know, he's 2388 01:44:04,400 --> 01:44:06,360 Speaker 31: like you said, no he did. I don't got your 2389 01:44:06,439 --> 01:44:08,320 Speaker 31: names right right off the rip. This is my first 2390 01:44:08,360 --> 01:44:08,840 Speaker 31: time calling in. 2391 01:44:08,960 --> 01:44:11,439 Speaker 1: But John and John, Matt, it's easy. 2392 01:44:11,560 --> 01:44:13,559 Speaker 5: You got two John's here, bro, very simple. 2393 01:44:15,439 --> 01:44:16,040 Speaker 31: The linebacker. 2394 01:44:16,560 --> 01:44:18,439 Speaker 5: There we go, there we go that. 2395 01:44:18,760 --> 01:44:20,600 Speaker 31: You know, this is his second game back from his 2396 01:44:21,080 --> 01:44:23,600 Speaker 31: you know, injury, and what other quarterbacks are doing, what 2397 01:44:23,680 --> 01:44:25,560 Speaker 31: they're doing, you know, so I think he made a 2398 01:44:25,560 --> 01:44:26,920 Speaker 31: big improvement for sure. 2399 01:44:27,600 --> 01:44:27,880 Speaker 8: Nothing. 2400 01:44:28,200 --> 01:44:29,240 Speaker 31: I was scared last week. 2401 01:44:29,640 --> 01:44:31,559 Speaker 1: Matt, absolutely and and and good call. 2402 01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:35,400 Speaker 2: Now the problem is before we get to break here, JC, 2403 01:44:36,240 --> 01:44:38,479 Speaker 2: you can talk about all this great stuff, all they improve, 2404 01:44:38,600 --> 01:44:39,440 Speaker 2: that's fantastic. 2405 01:44:39,880 --> 01:44:41,280 Speaker 5: The problem is that you're owning two downs. 2406 01:44:41,439 --> 01:44:45,960 Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, And I'll give you the math. It's not great. 2407 01:44:47,280 --> 01:44:50,000 Speaker 2: Since nineteen ninety, how many teams do you think I've 2408 01:44:50,040 --> 01:44:51,679 Speaker 2: made the playoffs that started own three? 2409 01:44:52,760 --> 01:44:53,719 Speaker 1: I started owning three. 2410 01:44:53,880 --> 01:44:54,040 Speaker 3: Yep. 2411 01:44:55,080 --> 01:44:58,280 Speaker 1: How many teams? Two? Four? Okay, I knew it was 2412 01:44:58,320 --> 01:44:59,800 Speaker 1: a low ball on low. 2413 01:45:00,040 --> 01:45:01,559 Speaker 5: Thirty four years. 2414 01:45:01,600 --> 01:45:04,719 Speaker 1: If my math is correct, it's insane. Four teams insane. 2415 01:45:04,800 --> 01:45:07,400 Speaker 1: But and then also specifically for the Giants, when you 2416 01:45:07,479 --> 01:45:10,000 Speaker 1: looked at this rat excuse me, this schedule, and you 2417 01:45:10,120 --> 01:45:13,000 Speaker 1: broke it up in quarters, right, and you was like, okay, 2418 01:45:13,200 --> 01:45:15,880 Speaker 1: the first quarter it you know, the second two games 2419 01:45:15,880 --> 01:45:17,720 Speaker 1: of the first quarter, which is what we're in right now, 2420 01:45:18,360 --> 01:45:22,080 Speaker 1: is Cleveland and the Cowboys. Right, Cleveland was a great 2421 01:45:22,200 --> 01:45:24,280 Speaker 1: team last year. There was a team that had to 2422 01:45:24,360 --> 01:45:26,840 Speaker 1: rest the blueprint to San Francisco. They were the ones 2423 01:45:26,880 --> 01:45:29,400 Speaker 1: that throne in San Francisco. And and you know, and 2424 01:45:29,479 --> 01:45:31,240 Speaker 1: they won today they beat the Jaguars. You know, so 2425 01:45:31,400 --> 01:45:33,600 Speaker 1: this is a good team, you know last year or 2426 01:45:33,640 --> 01:45:36,920 Speaker 1: a great team you know. Uh. And you were looking 2427 01:45:36,920 --> 01:45:38,840 Speaker 1: at the first two like all right, these are you know, 2428 01:45:38,960 --> 01:45:40,960 Speaker 1: kind of winnable games at least you want to get 2429 01:45:41,000 --> 01:45:42,840 Speaker 1: to You better get one, right, You've got to get 2430 01:45:42,840 --> 01:45:45,040 Speaker 1: at least one of these, you know, and after that 2431 01:45:45,240 --> 01:45:46,519 Speaker 1: it doesn't get any easier. 2432 01:45:47,280 --> 01:45:47,439 Speaker 15: You know. 2433 01:45:47,760 --> 01:45:49,840 Speaker 1: The Eagles are good. The Cowboys are good, you know. 2434 01:45:49,920 --> 01:45:53,160 Speaker 1: They I'm Seattle the later game the later day today 2435 01:45:53,160 --> 01:45:55,280 Speaker 1: against the same but Pittsburgh is in there. 2436 01:45:55,560 --> 01:45:55,720 Speaker 3: You know. 2437 01:45:56,200 --> 01:45:59,519 Speaker 1: Look, every week is a every week is a winnable game, 2438 01:45:59,640 --> 01:46:02,880 Speaker 1: you know. But like these first two weeks, especially the Commanders, 2439 01:46:03,400 --> 01:46:05,360 Speaker 1: this was the game on the schedule was like, all right, 2440 01:46:05,600 --> 01:46:08,400 Speaker 1: no matter what happens Week one, the Giants have to 2441 01:46:08,479 --> 01:46:11,000 Speaker 1: figure out a way to win this game because you know, 2442 01:46:11,160 --> 01:46:13,280 Speaker 1: the rest of the road is, you know, a road 2443 01:46:13,320 --> 01:46:16,120 Speaker 1: less traveled. It's a difficult road. First of all, the 2444 01:46:16,280 --> 01:46:20,320 Speaker 1: NFL is very difficult. And I've heard this ever since 2445 01:46:20,360 --> 01:46:21,880 Speaker 1: I got into the NFL, and I didn't really know 2446 01:46:21,920 --> 01:46:24,000 Speaker 1: what it means. It's so hard to win a game 2447 01:46:24,040 --> 01:46:26,040 Speaker 1: in the league. I didn't really know what that meant 2448 01:46:26,479 --> 01:46:29,000 Speaker 1: until I started playing, and I'm playing for Tampa and 2449 01:46:29,080 --> 01:46:32,760 Speaker 1: we're all in seven it started season, like, it's very difficult. 2450 01:46:33,280 --> 01:46:35,600 Speaker 1: A lot of different things that you have to do 2451 01:46:35,880 --> 01:46:39,639 Speaker 1: to win a game, being situationally aware at all times, 2452 01:46:40,000 --> 01:46:44,439 Speaker 1: no matter what. Whether it's injuries, whether it's situational field position, 2453 01:46:44,600 --> 01:46:47,760 Speaker 1: whether it's weather, you know, like all of those things 2454 01:46:47,840 --> 01:46:51,920 Speaker 1: play factors into these tremendous games that we watch every 2455 01:46:52,000 --> 01:46:56,040 Speaker 1: single Sunday, Thursday, Monday, Friday, Brazil like wherever it is, 2456 01:46:56,520 --> 01:47:00,120 Speaker 1: you know, And the Giants have to figure out it 2457 01:47:00,200 --> 01:47:03,720 Speaker 1: comes down to playing complimentary football because Giants offense may 2458 01:47:03,760 --> 01:47:06,400 Speaker 1: not be efficient one week, the defense has to step up. 2459 01:47:06,680 --> 01:47:09,880 Speaker 1: Giants defense may not be you know, slow, this offense down, 2460 01:47:09,920 --> 01:47:12,639 Speaker 1: whoever they're playing, the offense has to step up. Special 2461 01:47:12,720 --> 01:47:15,280 Speaker 1: teams has to be there every week, and we cannot 2462 01:47:15,360 --> 01:47:18,400 Speaker 1: consistently see the Giants not figuring out how to do that. 2463 01:47:18,880 --> 01:47:21,559 Speaker 1: Whether it's allowing Austin Eckler to break a ninety ninety 2464 01:47:21,640 --> 01:47:23,840 Speaker 1: yard kick and getting your kick or hurt, or you 2465 01:47:24,280 --> 01:47:26,759 Speaker 1: get an extra point block last year Week one, getting 2466 01:47:26,800 --> 01:47:29,280 Speaker 1: your left tackle hurt. The Giants have to figure out 2467 01:47:29,320 --> 01:47:32,880 Speaker 1: how to play complimentary football. It's not with just Daniel Jones. 2468 01:47:33,080 --> 01:47:36,160 Speaker 1: It's with every single person on that active roster, including 2469 01:47:36,160 --> 01:47:37,840 Speaker 1: the coaches one hundred percent. 2470 01:47:38,840 --> 01:47:40,880 Speaker 2: And now, wins and losses, you know they always matter, 2471 01:47:41,040 --> 01:47:43,760 Speaker 2: but you can't just say, hell, we played better what 2472 01:47:43,840 --> 01:47:46,000 Speaker 2: we lost. Well, Eventually you're going to lose too many 2473 01:47:46,040 --> 01:47:48,439 Speaker 2: games and the season becomes in jeopardy. So got to 2474 01:47:48,479 --> 01:47:50,280 Speaker 2: turn around next week and we'll talk about the opponent 2475 01:47:50,360 --> 01:47:52,639 Speaker 2: next week, the Cleveland Browns.

Let's hear from Burns, who 2490 01:48:27,520 --> 01:48:29,360 Speaker 2: did have his first career sack for the Giants, but 2491 01:48:29,439 --> 01:48:31,799 Speaker 2: it got taken off the board by that defensive holding penalty. 2492 01:48:32,160 --> 01:48:34,240 Speaker 32: Just because of the way the game go His offense 2493 01:48:34,320 --> 01:48:36,120 Speaker 32: is very up tempo. It's a lot of plays, a 2494 01:48:36,160 --> 01:48:37,920 Speaker 32: lot of perimeter plays. He tries to get the ball 2495 01:48:37,960 --> 01:48:40,360 Speaker 32: out to his playmakers. He doesn't really it wasn't really 2496 01:48:40,439 --> 01:48:42,280 Speaker 32: much of a drop back type of game. It was 2497 01:48:42,720 --> 01:48:44,840 Speaker 32: get the ball out and get the ball in his 2498 01:48:44,920 --> 01:48:47,439 Speaker 32: playmaker hands and let them kind of, you know, run around. 2499 01:48:49,040 --> 01:48:52,360 Speaker 32: So yeah, just the way his offense is is is 2500 01:48:52,400 --> 01:48:54,640 Speaker 32: a lot of plays. But like I said before, we 2501 01:48:54,680 --> 01:48:57,280 Speaker 32: got somebody by the throat. As a defense, we kind 2502 01:48:57,280 --> 01:48:59,000 Speaker 32: of got to snap the neck off and not let 2503 01:48:59,080 --> 01:49:01,800 Speaker 32: him get off the hull teams like this is last 2504 01:49:01,840 --> 01:49:02,160 Speaker 32: week too. 2505 01:49:02,200 --> 01:49:03,720 Speaker 12: I mean, Sam, man this they're trying to get the 2506 01:49:03,760 --> 01:49:05,880 Speaker 12: ball out quick on you guys, and they are getting 2507 01:49:05,880 --> 01:49:06,479 Speaker 12: the ball out quick? 2508 01:49:07,040 --> 01:49:08,000 Speaker 1: How is the defensive line? 2509 01:49:08,040 --> 01:49:09,120 Speaker 18: Can you still be this quarterback? 2510 01:49:09,120 --> 01:49:13,640 Speaker 32: Whether getting your hands up, you know, just getting his 2511 01:49:13,720 --> 01:49:16,439 Speaker 32: window just I don't know, just cutting them off make 2512 01:49:16,439 --> 01:49:19,479 Speaker 32: them uncomfortable, right man, I'm trying, And. 2513 01:49:20,840 --> 01:49:21,680 Speaker 3: I mean that's just gonna be. 2514 01:49:21,760 --> 01:49:23,479 Speaker 32: That's gonna be a lot of a lot of the NFL, 2515 01:49:23,479 --> 01:49:25,160 Speaker 32: and that's a lot of how team's gonna play us 2516 01:49:25,200 --> 01:49:26,080 Speaker 32: just because of you. 2517 01:49:26,120 --> 01:49:27,040 Speaker 1: Know, what we have up front. 2518 01:49:27,400 --> 01:49:30,160 Speaker 2: I might guess j C is snapping and that comment 2519 01:49:30,200 --> 01:49:31,559 Speaker 2: has to do with letting them off houck on those 2520 01:49:31,560 --> 01:49:32,240 Speaker 2: started lungs. 2521 01:49:32,840 --> 01:49:36,720 Speaker 1: Absolutely, yeah, absolutely exactly what we were talking. Listen. They're frustrated. 2522 01:49:36,800 --> 01:49:39,639 Speaker 1: They are when you're out there like that. You're sitting 2523 01:49:39,680 --> 01:49:41,920 Speaker 1: there like, man, why can't we get off the fees? 2524 01:49:42,040 --> 01:49:44,040 Speaker 2: And is there's something prideful to about allowing that many 2525 01:49:44,080 --> 01:49:45,680 Speaker 2: games in the run. I imagine if you're playing up 2526 01:49:45,680 --> 01:49:47,320 Speaker 2: front you give up two in your rushing yards, that 2527 01:49:47,400 --> 01:49:49,240 Speaker 2: probably gets you somewhere deep. 2528 01:49:49,320 --> 01:49:49,360 Speaker 3: No. 2529 01:49:49,600 --> 01:49:52,599 Speaker 1: Oh, absolutely, like when you when you go back to work. 2530 01:49:52,680 --> 01:49:54,519 Speaker 1: Whenever it is they're back in there, there's gonna be 2531 01:49:54,600 --> 01:49:55,400 Speaker 1: something on the board. 2532 01:49:56,000 --> 01:49:56,120 Speaker 16: Uh. 2533 01:49:56,560 --> 01:49:56,720 Speaker 19: You know. 2534 01:49:56,920 --> 01:49:59,800 Speaker 1: Sometimes I had a crazy defensive coordinator in Greg Williams. 2535 01:49:59,840 --> 01:50:02,559 Speaker 1: He to call us soft these kind of crazy stuff. Yes, 2536 01:50:03,040 --> 01:50:09,599 Speaker 1: there was there was some there's something you know, almost 2537 01:50:09,760 --> 01:50:13,080 Speaker 1: debilitating giving up that much rushing yards, you know, And 2538 01:50:13,280 --> 01:50:16,600 Speaker 1: and the Giants need to respond from that because the 2539 01:50:17,160 --> 01:50:20,200 Speaker 1: Cleveland Browns are already looking at that stat thing like, oh, 2540 01:50:20,240 --> 01:50:22,040 Speaker 1: we're gonna be able to run the ball down their throats, 2541 01:50:22,640 --> 01:50:25,200 Speaker 1: you know. And and if a team can run the 2542 01:50:25,280 --> 01:50:28,200 Speaker 1: ball in you efficiently, the quarterback doesn't even have to 2543 01:50:28,280 --> 01:50:30,960 Speaker 1: play that well, you know, because they don't have to 2544 01:50:31,000 --> 01:50:33,360 Speaker 1: throw the ball. If you're running the ball, you're creating 2545 01:50:33,680 --> 01:50:35,960 Speaker 1: you know, very manageable third downs because you're running the 2546 01:50:36,000 --> 01:50:38,479 Speaker 1: ball so officially in first and second. So the Giants 2547 01:50:38,600 --> 01:50:41,280 Speaker 1: have to figure that out or it's gonna look like this, 2548 01:50:41,640 --> 01:50:44,240 Speaker 1: you know. And Giants offense took a step forward. I'm 2549 01:50:44,280 --> 01:50:46,519 Speaker 1: looking for them to take another step forward, and I'm 2550 01:50:46,520 --> 01:50:48,880 Speaker 1: looking for the defense to actually go ahead and you know, 2551 01:50:49,320 --> 01:50:51,559 Speaker 1: drop their stuff and go ahead and stop the run. 2552 01:50:52,520 --> 01:50:55,599 Speaker 5: All right, let's look at next week's opponent, the Cleveland Browns. 2553 01:50:56,640 --> 01:51:03,320 Speaker 2: They defeated the Jacksonville Jaguar today eighteen to thirteen. They 2554 01:51:03,400 --> 01:51:06,840 Speaker 2: held Trevor Lawrence is just fourteen of thirty passing for 2555 01:51:06,960 --> 01:51:08,639 Speaker 2: two hundred and twenty yards. 2556 01:51:09,800 --> 01:51:11,280 Speaker 5: Frankly, even though they got blown. 2557 01:51:11,080 --> 01:51:12,880 Speaker 2: Up by the Cabals a week before, Dak Prescott did 2558 01:51:12,960 --> 01:51:15,040 Speaker 2: not through for two hundred yards in that game either 2559 01:51:15,120 --> 01:51:18,559 Speaker 2: on week number one, So JC they have a good defense. 2560 01:51:19,240 --> 01:51:22,000 Speaker 2: This is probably the toughest g defense the Giants will 2561 01:51:22,000 --> 01:51:23,880 Speaker 2: have face us far this year, though we'll see what 2562 01:51:23,960 --> 01:51:26,920 Speaker 2: the vikings that end up being. Sean Watson, on the 2563 01:51:26,960 --> 01:51:29,880 Speaker 2: other hand, has struggled this year, just twenty two or 2564 01:51:29,920 --> 01:51:32,040 Speaker 2: thirty four for one hundred and eighty six yards today. 2565 01:51:32,439 --> 01:51:35,799 Speaker 2: Nick Chubb, obviously you're not there, Jerome Ford, Donta Foreman, 2566 01:51:36,080 --> 01:51:37,639 Speaker 2: or the two running backs that are kind of taking 2567 01:51:37,720 --> 01:51:41,360 Speaker 2: most of the snaps for them. To me, this feels 2568 01:51:41,479 --> 01:51:45,400 Speaker 2: like a very low scoring, scratching, crow claw type of 2569 01:51:45,439 --> 01:51:47,320 Speaker 2: game for the Giants next week against the Browns. 2570 01:51:47,760 --> 01:51:50,080 Speaker 1: Yeah, looking at Cleveland. Look, I'm looking at their numbers 2571 01:51:50,120 --> 01:51:52,680 Speaker 1: right now. They only had three hundred total yards, you know, 2572 01:51:52,800 --> 01:51:54,880 Speaker 1: but they did have one hundred and twenty five yards 2573 01:51:55,000 --> 01:51:57,439 Speaker 1: on the ground. This is a rushing team. You know, 2574 01:51:57,560 --> 01:51:59,240 Speaker 1: they don't have their main guy. But foot is a 2575 01:51:59,360 --> 01:52:02,400 Speaker 1: very you know, very talented running back. He can break 2576 01:52:02,439 --> 01:52:06,519 Speaker 1: a long run. He's very talented. Deshaun Watson has that 2577 01:52:06,760 --> 01:52:10,400 Speaker 1: big play potential in his back pocket at all times. 2578 01:52:10,479 --> 01:52:14,120 Speaker 1: He's Amari Cooper. He's a receiver that the Giants have 2579 01:52:14,320 --> 01:52:17,360 Speaker 1: not done fairly well against throughout his career for the 2580 01:52:17,439 --> 01:52:20,479 Speaker 1: Dallas Cowboys. You know, this is a tall task for 2581 01:52:20,560 --> 01:52:22,920 Speaker 1: the Giants to ask. You know, I'm looking forward for 2582 01:52:23,000 --> 01:52:26,240 Speaker 1: the offense to take a step forward and being smart 2583 01:52:26,280 --> 01:52:30,680 Speaker 1: and protecting Daniel Jones running the football efficiently with Singingtary 2584 01:52:30,760 --> 01:52:35,559 Speaker 1: and Gray. Look, the Giants have to figure out how 2585 01:52:35,600 --> 01:52:38,360 Speaker 1: to play complimentary football.
