00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,440
Speaker 1: Welcome to another edition of Papa's Perspective. I'm Bob Papa.

2
00:00:03,480 --> 00:00:06,320
Speaker 1: On Sunday afternoon at MetLife Stadium, the Giants take on

3
00:00:06,800 --> 00:00:09,239
Speaker 1: the New Orleans Saints. Is the Giants try to win

4
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:11,680
Speaker 1: two in a row. This is an historic game when

5
00:00:11,720 --> 00:00:14,600
Speaker 1: you think about it. You've got Eli Manning the seventh

6
00:00:14,640 --> 00:00:18,279
Speaker 1: most touchdown passes in NFL history, the sixth most passing

7
00:00:18,400 --> 00:00:22,319
Speaker 1: yards going against Drew Brees, who has the third most

8
00:00:22,320 --> 00:00:25,919
Speaker 1: touchdown passes in NFL history, and the third most passing

9
00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:28,680
Speaker 1: yards in the history of the game. It's interesting when

10
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:31,080
Speaker 1: these games are played in New Orleans, there's a lot

11
00:00:31,160 --> 00:00:34,720
Speaker 1: of points scored. Conversely, in games played in New York,

12
00:00:34,800 --> 00:00:37,840
Speaker 1: the scores tend to be down. But this game has

13
00:00:37,880 --> 00:00:42,600
Speaker 1: the makings of being ultra explosive. Both teams have talented

14
00:00:42,640 --> 00:00:46,159
Speaker 1: skill position players and two quarterbacks that are hitting passes

15
00:00:46,200 --> 00:00:49,640
Speaker 1: at a high percentage rate. And let's face it, neither

16
00:00:49,720 --> 00:00:53,040
Speaker 1: team's defense is really getting to the opposing quarterback. So

17
00:00:53,360 --> 00:00:55,440
Speaker 1: what does this mean for the New York Giants. Well,

18
00:00:55,760 --> 00:00:59,000
Speaker 1: both teams have very good running backs. Obviously, Alvin Kamara

19
00:00:59,080 --> 00:01:01,600
Speaker 1: is very talented in the New Orleans Saints and see

20
00:01:01,680 --> 00:01:04,520
Speaker 1: Kwan Barkley for the Giants. Both guys are threats out

21
00:01:04,600 --> 00:01:07,360
Speaker 1: of the backfield. They got a funny feeling in this

22
00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,720
Speaker 1: game that the Giants are gonna continue doing what they

23
00:01:09,760 --> 00:01:12,080
Speaker 1: did against Houston. One of the best ways to defend

24
00:01:12,160 --> 00:01:15,280
Speaker 1: Drew Brees is to keep them off the field. The

25
00:01:15,360 --> 00:01:17,880
Speaker 1: Giants found a little something last week as far as

26
00:01:17,920 --> 00:01:20,640
Speaker 1: a running game and a power running game. What the

27
00:01:20,680 --> 00:01:22,640
Speaker 1: Giants need to do in this game is control the

28
00:01:22,680 --> 00:01:26,200
Speaker 1: line of scrimmage and run the football effectively. That doesn't

29
00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:28,160
Speaker 1: mean they have to run at fifty times. In this game.

30
00:01:28,200 --> 00:01:31,040
Speaker 1: There's gonna be opportunities to throw the football and they

31
00:01:31,040 --> 00:01:34,320
Speaker 1: will certainly take advantage of it with Odell Beckham Jr.

32
00:01:34,319 --> 00:01:36,640
Speaker 1: And Sterling Shephard and the rest of the Giant skill

33
00:01:36,680 --> 00:01:39,720
Speaker 1: position guys. But for me, this game boils down to

34
00:01:39,800 --> 00:01:42,560
Speaker 1: one thing. The Giants need to be able to control

35
00:01:42,600 --> 00:01:46,679
Speaker 1: the clock, use their running game and explosive place But

36
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,840
Speaker 1: the most important thing for the Giants is they have

37
00:01:48,960 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 1: to be successful in the red zone when they get

38
00:01:51,080 --> 00:01:55,800
Speaker 1: opportunities to score touchdowns. They need seven not three. And

39
00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:58,000
Speaker 1: that's my perspective. I'm Bob Papa
