Now joined by Chris Canty. Uh. 9 00:00:29,720 --> 00:00:33,120 Speaker 1: Giants go down to Jacksonville get a seventeen win, the 10 00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,159 Speaker 1: first time in franchise history the Giants have one on 11 00:00:37,200 --> 00:00:40,880 Speaker 1: the road in Jacksonville. That's a great win for this team, 12 00:00:40,880 --> 00:00:43,440 Speaker 1: improving to six and one. Yeah, it's just another propressive 13 00:00:43,479 --> 00:00:45,839 Speaker 1: performance by Brian day Bold and his team. And and 14 00:00:45,880 --> 00:00:47,680 Speaker 1: I want to credit the head coach for getting his 15 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:50,760 Speaker 1: guys ready to play Baltimore Ravens was a huge home win. 16 00:00:51,159 --> 00:00:53,599 Speaker 1: This was an opportunity to have a natural letdown going 17 00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:55,800 Speaker 1: down to Jacksonville, a team that had lost three straight. 18 00:00:56,120 --> 00:00:58,279 Speaker 1: The Giants didn't take it for granted. It didn't roll 19 00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:00,320 Speaker 1: their helmet out there. There was that attention to detail 20 00:01:00,400 --> 00:01:02,279 Speaker 1: right up until the end of that game. But overall, 21 00:01:02,600 --> 00:01:04,240 Speaker 1: I thought they did a great job in terms of 22 00:01:04,240 --> 00:01:06,960 Speaker 1: their energy and their urgency coming out to compete today. 23 00:01:07,040 --> 00:01:10,360 Speaker 1: Absolutely facing a Jacksonville Jaguars team that has a run 24 00:01:10,360 --> 00:01:13,600 Speaker 1: defense a's third best in the NFL. UH. The Giants, 25 00:01:13,640 --> 00:01:16,440 Speaker 1: of course are running heavy offense. This Jags defense is 26 00:01:16,440 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: really keying in on say Kuon Barkley early, but the 27 00:01:18,640 --> 00:01:21,240 Speaker 1: Giants were just kind of getting what they could get done. 28 00:01:21,360 --> 00:01:24,399 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones using his legs, getting the passing game going 29 00:01:24,440 --> 00:01:27,320 Speaker 1: early that opening drive, getting a touchdown. Daniel Jones and 30 00:01:27,400 --> 00:01:31,640 Speaker 1: Darius Slayton. The creativity we saw in this offense adjusting 31 00:01:31,680 --> 00:01:33,760 Speaker 1: to what they saw, well, yeah, the offense took with 32 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,000 Speaker 1: the Jags defense gave him in the first half. It 33 00:01:36,080 --> 00:01:38,319 Speaker 1: was the passing game and Daniel Jones did his damage 34 00:01:38,360 --> 00:01:40,440 Speaker 1: through the air. They were facing a lot of seven 35 00:01:40,440 --> 00:01:43,040 Speaker 1: man fronts, eight man fronts, heavy boxes loaded up to 36 00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:45,640 Speaker 1: stop say Kuon Barkley and Daniel Jones through the r 37 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:47,640 Speaker 1: p O s and then beating guys over the top. 38 00:01:47,880 --> 00:01:50,080 Speaker 1: With the passing game, was able to get some mileage 39 00:01:50,520 --> 00:01:52,520 Speaker 1: through the air, so I thought that was really impressive. 40 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,840 Speaker 1: They utilized play action passing a lot, and that's one 41 00:01:54,880 --> 00:01:57,720 Speaker 1: of the things that I think a lot of defenses 42 00:01:57,760 --> 00:01:59,880 Speaker 1: get caught in a buying with because sa Kuon Barkley 43 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 1: is been so productive. Daniel Jones coming into week six 44 00:02:03,280 --> 00:02:06,640 Speaker 1: third in play action passing attempts, and that's certainly something 45 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:09,679 Speaker 1: that they utilized early on. But as the defense made 46 00:02:09,680 --> 00:02:12,000 Speaker 1: its adjustments, we saw Brian da Ble and his coaching 47 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,760 Speaker 1: staff make their adjustments and coming out in the second half, 48 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:17,240 Speaker 1: it was run centric, whether it was the zone read 49 00:02:17,280 --> 00:02:20,000 Speaker 1: scheme and handing off to see Kuan or Daniel Jones 50 00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:22,720 Speaker 1: on quarterback keeps. The Giants offense got a lot of 51 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:25,519 Speaker 1: mileage on the ground, a hundred and seventy five yards 52 00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:29,959 Speaker 1: rushing in the second half. Really impressive effort, especially considering 53 00:02:30,000 --> 00:02:33,080 Speaker 1: you were down too offensive lineman two starters UH and 54 00:02:33,160 --> 00:02:35,520 Speaker 1: still being able to get that that surge at the 55 00:02:35,560 --> 00:02:37,799 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage, being able to own a line of scrimmage, 56 00:02:37,880 --> 00:02:40,359 Speaker 1: I think it speaks to how well Brian Dable and 57 00:02:40,440 --> 00:02:42,640 Speaker 1: Mike have to have this team prepared right and the 58 00:02:42,680 --> 00:02:45,399 Speaker 1: Giants coming away with not one but two hundred yard 59 00:02:45,480 --> 00:02:49,400 Speaker 1: rushers in se Quon Barkley and Daniel Jones. UH and 60 00:02:49,440 --> 00:02:51,440 Speaker 1: again you mentioned a hundred seventy five of those yards 61 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,239 Speaker 1: came in the second half alone. They were getting yarded 62 00:02:54,240 --> 00:02:56,600 Speaker 1: out there. But Daniel Jones not only running for a 63 00:02:56,680 --> 00:02:59,000 Speaker 1: hundred seven yards but also passing for two hundred two 64 00:02:59,040 --> 00:03:01,480 Speaker 1: and a touchdown. You know, we've given this offense a 65 00:03:01,480 --> 00:03:04,560 Speaker 1: lot of praise. This defense so really clutch, and the 66 00:03:04,639 --> 00:03:07,560 Speaker 1: defense has been clutched all season in securing these wins. 67 00:03:07,919 --> 00:03:10,160 Speaker 1: That last drive, you know, there was a little bit 68 00:03:10,160 --> 00:03:12,200 Speaker 1: more time on the clock than this Giant's team would 69 00:03:12,240 --> 00:03:15,600 Speaker 1: have liked, but the defense showed up in this eighty 70 00:03:15,639 --> 00:03:18,520 Speaker 1: degree weather and held strong. Yeah, and it was guys 71 00:03:18,560 --> 00:03:22,600 Speaker 1: like a Dory Jackson and Fabian Moreau and Xavier McKinney 72 00:03:22,840 --> 00:03:25,560 Speaker 1: and Julian Love in the latter two combining for that 73 00:03:25,639 --> 00:03:27,720 Speaker 1: tackle at the end of the game to stop the 74 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:31,000 Speaker 1: Jacksonville Jaguar short of the the low line. So that 75 00:03:31,080 --> 00:03:33,720 Speaker 1: was a game winning play, But you're also talking about 76 00:03:33,720 --> 00:03:35,800 Speaker 1: a game winning play that happened in the first half 77 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:38,320 Speaker 1: when Xavier McKinney was able to force that fumble on 78 00:03:38,360 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 1: Travis E. T N as he was getting ready across 79 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:43,240 Speaker 1: the goal line for a touchdown. Julian Love picks it 80 00:03:43,320 --> 00:03:45,400 Speaker 1: up in the end zone, takes a knee, it's a 81 00:03:45,440 --> 00:03:47,880 Speaker 1: touch back that ends up leading the points on the 82 00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:50,200 Speaker 1: next Giants drive. So there are a couple of key 83 00:03:50,240 --> 00:03:52,920 Speaker 1: instances where that defense steps up. To me, the most 84 00:03:52,920 --> 00:03:56,680 Speaker 1: pivotal of those was when the Jacksonville Jaguars had the 85 00:03:56,720 --> 00:03:59,800 Speaker 1: ball early in the fourth quarter, third and one for 86 00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:02,600 Speaker 1: it through one. The New York Giants get stops and 87 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:04,720 Speaker 1: that give the ball back to the New York Giants 88 00:04:04,720 --> 00:04:06,680 Speaker 1: offense and they go on to game winning drive for 89 00:04:06,760 --> 00:04:09,760 Speaker 1: a touchdown. Absolutely that stopped. Like you said, what we 90 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:11,720 Speaker 1: talked about this earlier as well, it's not just about 91 00:04:11,720 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 1: third and one or fourth and one, but it's also 92 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,520 Speaker 1: about third and one being able to do something with 93 00:04:15,600 --> 00:04:19,480 Speaker 1: consistency and stop them, and the complementary football as well, 94 00:04:19,520 --> 00:04:22,200 Speaker 1: turning that into offense. That touchdown, of course, gave the 95 00:04:22,200 --> 00:04:26,400 Speaker 1: Giants lead a lead they wouldn't look back from. But 96 00:04:26,440 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: things got closed there for a little while. Um you know, 97 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:31,159 Speaker 1: they kept us, they kept it interesting late as the 98 00:04:31,160 --> 00:04:34,200 Speaker 1: Giants have been wont to do this season. Um, you know, 99 00:04:34,240 --> 00:04:37,480 Speaker 1: wing Martindale's defense notable its sending them. They didn't quite 100 00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:40,039 Speaker 1: get to the quarterback today but they did win the 101 00:04:40,040 --> 00:04:42,960 Speaker 1: turnover battle. You know that turnover that you mentioned that 102 00:04:43,440 --> 00:04:45,360 Speaker 1: Julian Love recovered in the end, Zona was able to 103 00:04:45,400 --> 00:04:48,440 Speaker 1: take a knee. Giants did not turn the ball over 104 00:04:48,480 --> 00:04:50,840 Speaker 1: at all today though that ball security really important. Winning 105 00:04:50,839 --> 00:04:53,919 Speaker 1: that turnover battle. What kind of a point is that 106 00:04:54,040 --> 00:04:57,080 Speaker 1: for this team. Well, that's the most important statistic other 107 00:04:57,120 --> 00:04:59,600 Speaker 1: than the scoreboard, winning the turnover battle. And that's what 108 00:04:59,720 --> 00:05:02,159 Speaker 1: the New or Giants did. You talked about being plus one, 109 00:05:02,400 --> 00:05:04,440 Speaker 1: you could really call it plus two with the turnover 110 00:05:04,480 --> 00:05:06,479 Speaker 1: on downs that they got early in the fourth quarter. 111 00:05:06,560 --> 00:05:09,039 Speaker 1: So anytime you're plus two and you're able to run 112 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:11,800 Speaker 1: the football for over two hundred yards, I think you're 113 00:05:11,800 --> 00:05:14,200 Speaker 1: gonna have an opportunity to have success. The other thing 114 00:05:14,279 --> 00:05:16,520 Speaker 1: is the New York Giants let the Jaguars get all 115 00:05:16,600 --> 00:05:18,560 Speaker 1: the penalties for the first fifty eight minutes of that 116 00:05:18,640 --> 00:05:22,640 Speaker 1: game thirteen Jacksonville Jaguars penalties. It's hard to win football 117 00:05:22,680 --> 00:05:25,000 Speaker 1: games that way, and I think that speaks to how 118 00:05:25,040 --> 00:05:27,520 Speaker 1: well the Giants are coached by allowing them to make 119 00:05:27,520 --> 00:05:29,440 Speaker 1: all of the mistakes. Now down the stretch, there are 120 00:05:29,440 --> 00:05:32,400 Speaker 1: a couple of defensive holding penalties that that Giants defense had, 121 00:05:32,640 --> 00:05:34,560 Speaker 1: but they didn't hurt you because at that point in 122 00:05:34,600 --> 00:05:36,960 Speaker 1: the game, giving up five yards and the first down 123 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:40,320 Speaker 1: on a penalty is inconsequential in comparison to running time 124 00:05:40,360 --> 00:05:42,919 Speaker 1: off the clock, which they did. So I think you 125 00:05:43,000 --> 00:05:45,520 Speaker 1: have to keep things in their proper perspective. But overall, 126 00:05:45,880 --> 00:05:49,599 Speaker 1: a really really good team effort and complementary football and Madeline. 127 00:05:49,880 --> 00:05:51,960 Speaker 1: One of the formulas that you want for success when 128 00:05:51,960 --> 00:05:53,960 Speaker 1: you go on the road in the NFL is being 129 00:05:53,960 --> 00:05:56,760 Speaker 1: able to run the football and being able to have 130 00:05:56,800 --> 00:05:59,880 Speaker 1: those completions. And the number is fifty at least that's 131 00:05:59,880 --> 00:06:02,440 Speaker 1: what coach Coughlin used to tell us. If you have 132 00:06:02,760 --> 00:06:07,400 Speaker 1: combined Russia attempts and past completions over fifty, you're gonna 133 00:06:07,480 --> 00:06:09,279 Speaker 1: have a good day in the office. The New York 134 00:06:09,320 --> 00:06:13,640 Speaker 1: Giants fifty eight runs plus completions. That's a really impressive 135 00:06:13,680 --> 00:06:17,080 Speaker 1: figure and as it showed today, that kind of formula 136 00:06:17,160 --> 00:06:20,039 Speaker 1: will travel well. And fifty eight runs plus completions. But 137 00:06:20,080 --> 00:06:22,080 Speaker 1: also another number that I like to highlight is eight 138 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:26,000 Speaker 1: eight different players catching a pass from Daniel Jones. This 139 00:06:26,080 --> 00:06:27,719 Speaker 1: is something that we've been seeing a lot of late. 140 00:06:27,960 --> 00:06:31,200 Speaker 1: There isn't really a clear wide receiver one in this group, 141 00:06:31,320 --> 00:06:33,440 Speaker 1: but they are spreading the ball around and they're getting 142 00:06:33,480 --> 00:06:36,440 Speaker 1: different guys involved in this offense, and and each of 143 00:06:36,480 --> 00:06:38,240 Speaker 1: these guys is really stepping up into its role. We 144 00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:40,839 Speaker 1: talked about Darius Slayton, wan Dale Robinson the rookie and 145 00:06:40,920 --> 00:06:43,719 Speaker 1: his second full game today really kind of making some 146 00:06:43,760 --> 00:06:46,120 Speaker 1: noise as well. No and that's impressive to see the 147 00:06:46,160 --> 00:06:48,760 Speaker 1: young guys starting to come around. Like Baltimore Ravens game. 148 00:06:48,960 --> 00:06:51,360 Speaker 1: You had three catches in a touchdown today, six catches 149 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:54,240 Speaker 1: for fifty yards, including a couple that converted for first down. 150 00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,440 Speaker 1: So when Wandel is getting involved and now Darius Slayton 151 00:06:57,520 --> 00:07:00,560 Speaker 1: is having this resurgence, it just creates more were weapons 152 00:07:00,560 --> 00:07:03,440 Speaker 1: for Daniel Jones to work with. More importantly, creates more 153 00:07:03,480 --> 00:07:06,000 Speaker 1: guys in that receiving corps that Brian day Bole and 154 00:07:06,040 --> 00:07:08,960 Speaker 1: Mike Kafka can depend on. And I think that's the 155 00:07:09,160 --> 00:07:11,600 Speaker 1: key thread when we started talking about who's getting snaps 156 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:14,800 Speaker 1: at receiver versus who isn't. These guys that are playing 157 00:07:14,840 --> 00:07:17,560 Speaker 1: are buying into what Mike Kafkin and Brian Dable want 158 00:07:17,560 --> 00:07:19,960 Speaker 1: to do on the offensive end, and Daniel Jones is 159 00:07:20,000 --> 00:07:22,120 Speaker 1: rewarding them by putting the football on them. Still had 160 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:24,360 Speaker 1: a couple of drops, a little few more than we'd 161 00:07:24,440 --> 00:07:26,760 Speaker 1: like to see, but I think overall it was a 162 00:07:26,800 --> 00:07:29,760 Speaker 1: good effort for those guys, especially being shorthanded with the 163 00:07:29,840 --> 00:07:33,200 Speaker 1: Daniel Bellinger injury. Right, Daniel Bellinger got poked in the eye, 164 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:35,440 Speaker 1: and you know, that doesn't sound like a hard injury, 165 00:07:35,440 --> 00:07:40,840 Speaker 1: but if you saw it, oh my gosh, that was great, Bob. 166 00:07:40,920 --> 00:07:43,160 Speaker 1: That was an aggressive eye poke. And that was not 167 00:07:43,200 --> 00:07:45,640 Speaker 1: the only injury. We saw two two significant injuries on 168 00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:48,440 Speaker 1: the offensive line. You saw Ben Brettison and rookie Evan 169 00:07:48,520 --> 00:07:51,640 Speaker 1: Neil both leaving the game with a knee injury in 170 00:07:51,640 --> 00:07:55,720 Speaker 1: that first half, But it didn't seem to be a 171 00:07:55,840 --> 00:07:58,800 Speaker 1: giant impact on this game because you know, the rookie 172 00:07:58,840 --> 00:08:01,440 Speaker 1: Josh Zulu stepped in and we saw Terry Phillips stepping 173 00:08:01,880 --> 00:08:04,360 Speaker 1: and the offensive line was still able to hold strong. Now, 174 00:08:04,400 --> 00:08:06,400 Speaker 1: those guys did a great job of being able to 175 00:08:06,440 --> 00:08:08,720 Speaker 1: own a line of scrimmage, not just in the run game, 176 00:08:08,760 --> 00:08:10,440 Speaker 1: but in the past for US. Daniel Jones was only 177 00:08:10,480 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 1: sacked once in this game. They kept him clean. I 178 00:08:12,840 --> 00:08:15,400 Speaker 1: think there were only three quarterback hits, so that's a 179 00:08:15,440 --> 00:08:19,000 Speaker 1: fearsome Jacksonville Jaguars defensive front led by Josh Allen and 180 00:08:19,040 --> 00:08:22,120 Speaker 1: Trayvon Walker and pretty much all of those guys had 181 00:08:22,240 --> 00:08:24,680 Speaker 1: quiet days. I think that speaks to the offensive line 182 00:08:24,680 --> 00:08:27,480 Speaker 1: doing its job. They were able to create lanes for 183 00:08:27,560 --> 00:08:30,080 Speaker 1: Daniel Jones to see down the field and deliver the 184 00:08:30,080 --> 00:08:33,080 Speaker 1: football with accuracy, but also for dj to scramble and 185 00:08:33,080 --> 00:08:35,960 Speaker 1: pick up yards with his legs when his receivers couldn't uncover. 186 00:08:36,040 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: So overall, an outstanding performance by the offensive line. And 187 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:42,360 Speaker 1: that's one of those things that when coach day Ball 188 00:08:42,400 --> 00:08:44,600 Speaker 1: goes through the film, he's gonna highlight for the rest 189 00:08:44,600 --> 00:08:46,320 Speaker 1: of the team to see. Yeah, in the offensive line. 190 00:08:46,360 --> 00:08:48,400 Speaker 1: For Giants fans out there listening, they are so much 191 00:08:48,480 --> 00:08:51,720 Speaker 1: used to hearing the opposite reaction to the performance of 192 00:08:51,720 --> 00:08:53,480 Speaker 1: the offensive line. So a lot of credit to this 193 00:08:53,480 --> 00:08:56,199 Speaker 1: group and also the offensive line coach Bobby Johnson. O G. 194 00:08:56,280 --> 00:08:59,680 Speaker 1: Bobby Johnson really getting worked as well. Um, you know, 195 00:08:59,720 --> 00:09:03,120 Speaker 1: but the again Giants are stacking wins, finding ways six 196 00:09:03,160 --> 00:09:05,160 Speaker 1: and one of the first time the six and one 197 00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:07,640 Speaker 1: since two thousand and eight. That is incredible start to 198 00:09:07,679 --> 00:09:11,200 Speaker 1: the season. Don't tell anybody, I'm like starting to whisper 199 00:09:11,240 --> 00:09:13,640 Speaker 1: it along like this. This is an organization that is 200 00:09:13,720 --> 00:09:16,520 Speaker 1: used to success but has had you know, a bit 201 00:09:16,520 --> 00:09:18,600 Speaker 1: of a draught of late, and this team is really 202 00:09:18,640 --> 00:09:21,200 Speaker 1: finding unique ways week and week out to close it out. 203 00:09:21,440 --> 00:09:23,400 Speaker 1: They got another tough one next week, the head into 204 00:09:23,440 --> 00:09:27,720 Speaker 1: the West Coast to face Seattle before the bye week. 205 00:09:28,080 --> 00:09:30,080 Speaker 1: I just want to hear your early thoughts on that 206 00:09:30,120 --> 00:09:32,120 Speaker 1: game right there. Well, the Giants have been on an 207 00:09:32,120 --> 00:09:34,920 Speaker 1: emotional roller coaster, but they've also been traveling around the 208 00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,400 Speaker 1: world literally. I mean you're talking about them playing across 209 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:41,040 Speaker 1: the Pond in London against the Packers and then coming 210 00:09:41,040 --> 00:09:43,520 Speaker 1: back no bye week included for a tough match up 211 00:09:43,559 --> 00:09:45,920 Speaker 1: against the Baltimore Ravens, then having to go on the 212 00:09:46,000 --> 00:09:48,640 Speaker 1: road against the Jacksonville Jaguars, which is not a short 213 00:09:48,679 --> 00:09:51,000 Speaker 1: flight for those that know. And now you're talking about 214 00:09:51,040 --> 00:09:53,720 Speaker 1: flying six hours across the country to play against a 215 00:09:53,800 --> 00:09:56,640 Speaker 1: really tough Seattle Seahawks team with a quarterback in Geno 216 00:09:56,679 --> 00:09:59,280 Speaker 1: Smith who has the fourth best QBR through the first 217 00:09:59,280 --> 00:10:02,000 Speaker 1: six weeks of the NFL season. So this is another 218 00:10:02,040 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 1: tough challenge for the New York Giants ahead of their 219 00:10:04,120 --> 00:10:06,080 Speaker 1: bye week. The rest couldn't come at a better time, 220 00:10:06,320 --> 00:10:08,640 Speaker 1: but they've got business to handle up and Seattle before 221 00:10:08,679 --> 00:10:11,880 Speaker 1: they do get that rest. I'm just I'm curious to 222 00:10:11,920 --> 00:10:15,160 Speaker 1: see how they come out and how Brian Dable handles 223 00:10:15,240 --> 00:10:17,680 Speaker 1: the work week for these guys, knowing that there could 224 00:10:17,720 --> 00:10:19,200 Speaker 1: be a little bit of a tired legs with all 225 00:10:19,240 --> 00:10:21,160 Speaker 1: of the traveling that they've had to deal right, not 226 00:10:21,200 --> 00:10:25,080 Speaker 1: to mention, uh, four games in a row leading into 227 00:10:25,080 --> 00:10:27,280 Speaker 1: this week. Not sure what they're doing at the four 228 00:10:27,360 --> 00:10:30,040 Speaker 1: thirty game against the Chargers, but four games in a 229 00:10:30,120 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 1: row in which the Seahawks have had an interception. Um, 230 00:10:33,960 --> 00:10:35,920 Speaker 1: so that defense has nothing to scoff at either. But 231 00:10:36,080 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: you take a look at the standings, the Eagles six 232 00:10:37,920 --> 00:10:40,800 Speaker 1: and oh still on a by this week, the Giants, 233 00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:43,960 Speaker 1: Cowboys and Washington each one. But the Giants still at 234 00:10:43,960 --> 00:10:45,600 Speaker 1: that number two spot and they don't play the next 235 00:10:45,640 --> 00:10:48,280 Speaker 1: division game until they face the Cowboys on Thanksgiving, So 236 00:10:48,360 --> 00:10:50,760 Speaker 1: stacking a few, you know, got a few weeks there 237 00:10:50,800 --> 00:10:53,200 Speaker 1: before that happens, and then those games are the ones 238 00:10:53,240 --> 00:10:54,920 Speaker 1: that you really want to get the Doves, no doubt 239 00:10:54,960 --> 00:10:56,520 Speaker 1: about it. You want to stack your wins when you 240 00:10:56,520 --> 00:10:58,400 Speaker 1: can get and we all know the division games kind 241 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:00,560 Speaker 1: of count like two because you get it in, but 242 00:11:00,720 --> 00:11:03,560 Speaker 1: the team in your division gets gets a loss in 243 00:11:03,600 --> 00:11:06,160 Speaker 1: the standing, so that matters. But you also got to 244 00:11:06,160 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: get those wins against those NFC opponents. Seattle figures to 245 00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:11,199 Speaker 1: be one of those teams in the playoff picture. You 246 00:11:11,240 --> 00:11:13,720 Speaker 1: don't know where they're gonna finish. If you end up 247 00:11:13,760 --> 00:11:15,720 Speaker 1: having to go to wild card route to get into 248 00:11:15,720 --> 00:11:18,000 Speaker 1: the postseason, that could be one of the teams that 249 00:11:18,040 --> 00:11:20,920 Speaker 1: you're competing with for one of those spots. So um, 250 00:11:20,960 --> 00:11:23,480 Speaker 1: this is a big game, a consequential game for the 251 00:11:23,480 --> 00:11:25,720 Speaker 1: Giants because it's the next one on the calendar. But 252 00:11:25,760 --> 00:11:28,240 Speaker 1: I also think this is a matchup between two teams 253 00:11:28,400 --> 00:11:31,720 Speaker 1: that can find themselves playing playoff football. Absolutely, absolutely well, 254 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:33,320 Speaker 1: we got a lot of ball game left this season. 255 00:11:33,400 --> 00:11:35,680 Speaker 1: Chris Canty, thank you so much for the insight and 256 00:11:35,720 --> 00:11:39,920 Speaker 1: reaction on this Giants Huddle podcast.
