As the Giants improved to two and seven overall, 13 00:00:41,479 --> 00:00:43,600 Speaker 1: two and two in the division, and they have now 14 00:00:44,040 --> 00:00:48,240 Speaker 1: won five straight over Washington, two straight seasons in which 15 00:00:48,280 --> 00:00:51,559 Speaker 1: they have swept the season series. And Bob, this was 16 00:00:51,600 --> 00:00:55,120 Speaker 1: a game which always got interesting because it seems that's 17 00:00:55,160 --> 00:00:57,360 Speaker 1: just the way the Giants go this year. But they 18 00:00:57,360 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: were plus five in turnover differential, and they played a 19 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:02,840 Speaker 1: clean football game, and that's certainly a big step in 20 00:01:02,880 --> 00:01:05,880 Speaker 1: the right direction. And they made two interceptions when their 21 00:01:05,920 --> 00:01:08,720 Speaker 1: defense needed it most to prevent Washington from getting into 22 00:01:08,760 --> 00:01:11,200 Speaker 1: field goal range. Yeah, I mean Lance, normally, when you're 23 00:01:11,240 --> 00:01:14,720 Speaker 1: plus five in the turnover category, UH, you're not sweating 24 00:01:14,720 --> 00:01:18,200 Speaker 1: out a last minute pick uh to win the football game. 25 00:01:18,240 --> 00:01:20,160 Speaker 1: And you know, they made some of the mistakes that 26 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:23,880 Speaker 1: they have made throughout this entire season that brought this 27 00:01:23,920 --> 00:01:28,240 Speaker 1: game closer than it was. But in the end, you know, 28 00:01:28,280 --> 00:01:31,080 Speaker 1: they get to win. Uh. And the most impressive part 29 00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,120 Speaker 1: about this is their ability once again to run the football. 30 00:01:34,200 --> 00:01:37,760 Speaker 1: Gallman with sixty eight yards rushing, Mars with sixty seven 31 00:01:37,800 --> 00:01:41,560 Speaker 1: yards rushing from the two running backs that matter, uh, 32 00:01:41,600 --> 00:01:45,039 Speaker 1: and Daniel Jones did not turn the football over. Remember 33 00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:48,160 Speaker 1: this is a guy that thirty six giveaways, the most 34 00:01:48,200 --> 00:01:51,880 Speaker 1: in the NFL since the beginning of two thousand and nineteen. 35 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:55,880 Speaker 1: And uh, you know he protected the football when he 36 00:01:55,960 --> 00:01:58,880 Speaker 1: really needed to. Now, you know, only the coaches will 37 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:00,960 Speaker 1: know and and and they be able to tell better 38 00:02:00,960 --> 00:02:03,720 Speaker 1: than weekend. You know, with that pressure that came at 39 00:02:03,760 --> 00:02:06,320 Speaker 1: the end, and is that's something that he needs to 40 00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: see pre snap. But with that said, when Cameron Curl 41 00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:12,920 Speaker 1: came in on that blitz, Jones could have easily coughed 42 00:02:12,919 --> 00:02:15,400 Speaker 1: the football up, but he didn't and he didn't throw 43 00:02:15,440 --> 00:02:18,680 Speaker 1: any interceptions today. So that's some progress, Carl. Yeah, it is, 44 00:02:18,760 --> 00:02:21,360 Speaker 1: Bob and and and to your point to you, we 45 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:25,040 Speaker 1: talked about this being such a close game, but they 46 00:02:25,120 --> 00:02:27,640 Speaker 1: did the things that were necessary to win. And you 47 00:02:27,639 --> 00:02:30,440 Speaker 1: you spoke before we came on the air. We could 48 00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,240 Speaker 1: easily be talking about how well they played and lost, 49 00:02:33,880 --> 00:02:37,120 Speaker 1: but they put enough things into plus category and they 50 00:02:37,200 --> 00:02:40,600 Speaker 1: took care of business when they hit their opportunities. UH, 51 00:02:40,639 --> 00:02:43,679 Speaker 1: to close out the game defensively, And that's what you want. 52 00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:46,200 Speaker 1: You want that from a team you got. You either 53 00:02:46,240 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 1: gonna lose ugly or win ugly, and you take the 54 00:02:48,960 --> 00:02:50,720 Speaker 1: ugly win either way. Yeah. I mean you can make 55 00:02:50,760 --> 00:02:53,200 Speaker 1: a case that in the Philadelphia and Tampa games they 56 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:57,600 Speaker 1: actually played better, but they lost. They made mistakes. Ingram 57 00:02:57,600 --> 00:03:00,400 Speaker 1: with another key drop in this game near lead led 58 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:03,880 Speaker 1: to an interception on another drop. UM. You know that 59 00:03:04,000 --> 00:03:05,640 Speaker 1: hurt him because you would have had first and ten 60 00:03:05,720 --> 00:03:08,680 Speaker 1: at the plus twenty seven and in field goal range 61 00:03:08,720 --> 00:03:11,920 Speaker 1: to extend the lead. Um put the ball in the ground. 62 00:03:11,919 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 1: I guess the one big thing Carl, that's you know, 63 00:03:14,400 --> 00:03:17,239 Speaker 1: comes out of nowhere. It feels like you solve some 64 00:03:17,320 --> 00:03:21,520 Speaker 1: problems and then other problems pop up. I mentioned during 65 00:03:21,560 --> 00:03:25,080 Speaker 1: the broadcast. Coming into this game, the Giants had only 66 00:03:25,160 --> 00:03:28,000 Speaker 1: given up five pass plays of thirty or more yards. 67 00:03:28,040 --> 00:03:31,200 Speaker 1: Cooper Cup had a fifty five yard touchdown. What that 68 00:03:31,240 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 1: was the only touchdown and that air balloon that went 69 00:03:35,240 --> 00:03:38,560 Speaker 1: through the high tower for fifty nine yards, but only 70 00:03:38,640 --> 00:03:41,840 Speaker 1: five they gave up four today. McLaurin the sixty eight 71 00:03:41,960 --> 00:03:46,240 Speaker 1: yard touchdown catch and then Cam Sims had catches of 72 00:03:46,320 --> 00:03:50,360 Speaker 1: forty five, thirty three, and thirty two. What happened to 73 00:03:50,440 --> 00:03:53,240 Speaker 1: allow these big places, because that's what got Washington back 74 00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:55,240 Speaker 1: in this game. It did, but you look at the 75 00:03:55,240 --> 00:03:59,640 Speaker 1: effort of of how they got there. Now, the mclurin 76 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:04,760 Speaker 1: was that Cam yattam assists if you will, the other 77 00:04:04,840 --> 00:04:08,920 Speaker 1: two plays. It just tells you Washington went to school. 78 00:04:09,440 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: Because the Giants early on in the season, we're having 79 00:04:13,480 --> 00:04:18,920 Speaker 1: trouble with picks. Now, he's the the unusual suspect, if 80 00:04:18,960 --> 00:04:22,080 Speaker 1: you will, in in their array of receivers, and they 81 00:04:22,160 --> 00:04:24,400 Speaker 1: used him in the picking game. They double picked and 82 00:04:24,440 --> 00:04:27,960 Speaker 1: he's crossing and he runs across twice and hits him 83 00:04:27,960 --> 00:04:30,880 Speaker 1: for big yards. So they'll have to clean that up. 84 00:04:30,920 --> 00:04:34,080 Speaker 1: They have to continuously look at the things that hurt them, 85 00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:36,080 Speaker 1: not just in a two game sample, but go all 86 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:38,760 Speaker 1: the way back. Because teams will do this, they will 87 00:04:38,800 --> 00:04:40,600 Speaker 1: go back and do their homework and see where they 88 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,680 Speaker 1: can exploit the Giants. But the mccurl and play. That's 89 00:04:44,760 --> 00:04:47,880 Speaker 1: Kim yachtam. I mean you to make that interception or 90 00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:50,560 Speaker 1: you break the play up, and he did neither. Well, 91 00:04:50,560 --> 00:04:54,240 Speaker 1: he had three options, make the interception, break the playoff, 92 00:04:54,480 --> 00:04:56,400 Speaker 1: or if you're not gonna play the ball, if you're 93 00:04:56,400 --> 00:05:02,040 Speaker 1: that tentative. He did none of the three, which gave 94 00:05:02,200 --> 00:05:05,240 Speaker 1: which gave Washington life. All right, Lance, I'm being told 95 00:05:05,279 --> 00:05:07,799 Speaker 1: that you're ready to go to phone calls. I am ready, 96 00:05:07,839 --> 00:05:10,640 Speaker 1: indeed at eight seven seven three three seven sixty six 97 00:05:10,680 --> 00:05:13,039 Speaker 1: sixty six. Let's open up the lines and we check 98 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,320 Speaker 1: it with Scott and Teterborrow. Scott, welcome aboard. What do 99 00:05:15,360 --> 00:05:22,320 Speaker 1: you got? Scott going once? Scott going twice, Scott three 100 00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,720 Speaker 1: strikes and you're out no contact for Scott, a man 101 00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,120 Speaker 1: of very few words. Let's see if Dwight in Helen 102 00:05:28,120 --> 00:05:30,200 Speaker 1: would Georgia is a little bit more talkative than Scott. 103 00:05:30,240 --> 00:05:35,400 Speaker 1: What's happened doing very well what's on your mind? Excellent 104 00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:39,040 Speaker 1: when even though the mistakes that got stopped making these 105 00:05:39,080 --> 00:05:42,280 Speaker 1: mistakes and then Carl was talking about those picks. That's 106 00:05:42,320 --> 00:05:44,440 Speaker 1: what they have to do. They need to make sure 107 00:05:44,520 --> 00:05:47,440 Speaker 1: that d d are checking these picks out because that's 108 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:50,960 Speaker 1: what killed them, uh, last a couple of times with 109 00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 1: Tampa Bay. But I take when and defense came through, 110 00:05:55,760 --> 00:05:59,320 Speaker 1: Thank you very much, all right, Twight, appreciate the phone call. 111 00:05:59,480 --> 00:06:02,560 Speaker 1: And the defense did come through in terms of being 112 00:06:02,560 --> 00:06:06,280 Speaker 1: opportunistic and you know, not really allowing Washington to have 113 00:06:06,320 --> 00:06:09,040 Speaker 1: any gifts, guys in the course of this game, because Bob, 114 00:06:09,080 --> 00:06:10,560 Speaker 1: as you alluded to, you know, this was the first 115 00:06:10,560 --> 00:06:12,880 Speaker 1: game Daniel Jones played clean football. It's actually the first 116 00:06:12,880 --> 00:06:15,800 Speaker 1: time since coincidentally, they were in Landover Maryland in Week 117 00:06:15,880 --> 00:06:17,760 Speaker 1: sixteen last season. That was the last time the Giants 118 00:06:17,760 --> 00:06:20,160 Speaker 1: had a clean football game overall. And you know, this 119 00:06:20,240 --> 00:06:23,320 Speaker 1: is not the type of team, considering their struggles offensively, 120 00:06:23,360 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 1: that you want to change field position for them so 121 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:28,640 Speaker 1: that they can capitalize under those circumstances. Yeah, I mean, 122 00:06:28,640 --> 00:06:31,960 Speaker 1: they didn't give Washington any short fields. I mean the Giants, 123 00:06:32,279 --> 00:06:34,560 Speaker 1: you know, they created a short field when you know 124 00:06:34,600 --> 00:06:36,920 Speaker 1: you had the fumbled punt or they forced the fumble 125 00:06:36,960 --> 00:06:39,280 Speaker 1: on the punt return. And yeah, that's the difference in 126 00:06:39,320 --> 00:06:42,640 Speaker 1: the ballgame pretty much. Lance Uh, five turnovers. Usually when you, 127 00:06:42,880 --> 00:06:46,000 Speaker 1: as I said at the beginning, when you win at 128 00:06:46,040 --> 00:06:49,800 Speaker 1: plus five, usually it's not a nail biting three point when. 129 00:06:49,880 --> 00:06:52,640 Speaker 1: But that is kind of Giants football these days. Indeed, 130 00:06:52,680 --> 00:06:55,080 Speaker 1: Big Blue Kickoff Live, presented by the New York Lottery 131 00:06:55,120 --> 00:06:57,160 Speaker 1: is the Giants daily call and show on Giants dot 132 00:06:57,240 --> 00:06:59,359 Speaker 1: Com every weekday from twelve to one whole part of 133 00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:02,400 Speaker 1: the Giants pot Cast network, presented by Investors Bank.

They improved to two and 139 00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:19,520 Speaker 1: seven and most important two and two indivisional play. We'll 140 00:07:19,520 --> 00:07:25,679 Speaker 1: be back right after this. Smith out of the gun 141 00:07:26,240 --> 00:07:31,160 Speaker 1: back to throw, has Tod over and intercepted picked off 142 00:07:31,440 --> 00:07:36,920 Speaker 1: logan Ryan.

As 148 00:07:53,320 --> 00:07:56,400 Speaker 1: the Giants improved to two and seven on the season 149 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:59,120 Speaker 1: two and two indivisional play, they were able to get 150 00:07:59,160 --> 00:08:02,480 Speaker 1: three interceptions of Alex Smith, Blake Martinez, Debero, Peppers, Logan 151 00:08:02,560 --> 00:08:05,320 Speaker 1: Ryan who you just heard, also recover two fumbles won 152 00:08:05,360 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: by Peppers one Bay Madre Hopper on special teams, and 153 00:08:08,680 --> 00:08:11,240 Speaker 1: the Giants were plus five in turnover differential. They're now 154 00:08:11,400 --> 00:08:15,040 Speaker 1: zero on this season. They had ten takeaways in the 155 00:08:15,080 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: first eight games, five alone in game number eight.

John, what's happening? Hi? I 162 00:08:37,360 --> 00:08:39,840 Speaker 1: just had a question. Do you think next year, assuming 163 00:08:39,960 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 1: Barkley comes back healthy, that they can build in more 164 00:08:43,880 --> 00:08:46,920 Speaker 1: of a role for Gorman. I really like Gorman. He 165 00:08:47,000 --> 00:08:50,040 Speaker 1: looks like a really good back. I understand with Barkley 166 00:08:50,120 --> 00:08:52,280 Speaker 1: there you want him on the field, But do you 167 00:08:52,320 --> 00:08:55,040 Speaker 1: think more of a role could be built for Gorman? 168 00:08:57,080 --> 00:08:59,120 Speaker 1: All right, John, appreciate the phone call. And I know 169 00:08:59,280 --> 00:09:01,079 Speaker 1: Bob and Carl, you guys were talking about this during 170 00:09:01,080 --> 00:09:03,559 Speaker 1: the course of the broadcast that he really fell out 171 00:09:03,559 --> 00:09:06,960 Speaker 1: of the rotation late last season. This season taken advantage 172 00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,800 Speaker 1: of the Barkley injury and when he's in, we're seeing 173 00:09:10,800 --> 00:09:12,800 Speaker 1: a spark and he's done that consistently. He now has 174 00:09:12,800 --> 00:09:15,000 Speaker 1: a rushing touchdown in each of the last three games. 175 00:09:16,240 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 1: You know, he's ever ready. Is is It's the best 176 00:09:19,520 --> 00:09:22,560 Speaker 1: way to subscribe him because he's confident in what he 177 00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: can do. Uh. He stays prepared and when they put 178 00:09:26,600 --> 00:09:28,680 Speaker 1: him on the field, you can see the energy he 179 00:09:28,760 --> 00:09:31,079 Speaker 1: brings to the offense. Yeah. I mean in his rookie 180 00:09:31,160 --> 00:09:35,520 Speaker 1: year under Ben McAdoo, Um, he started one game. Um, 181 00:09:35,559 --> 00:09:38,520 Speaker 1: he got a hundred and eleven touches, hundred eleven carries 182 00:09:38,559 --> 00:09:42,200 Speaker 1: for four hundred and seventy six yards. Not bad. Uh, 183 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,920 Speaker 1: thirty four catches for a hundred and ninety three yards. 184 00:09:45,520 --> 00:09:48,240 Speaker 1: Then Pat Shermer came in and the numbers got cut 185 00:09:48,240 --> 00:09:51,400 Speaker 1: in half. The following year as far as carries fifty 186 00:09:51,440 --> 00:09:55,680 Speaker 1: one and then last year, I mean he got twenty 187 00:09:55,720 --> 00:09:58,560 Speaker 1: nine carries for a hundred and ten yards and eleven 188 00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:00,320 Speaker 1: kelt like he was buried. I mean he was a 189 00:10:00,320 --> 00:10:03,760 Speaker 1: healthy scratching games last year. You and I never understood it. 190 00:10:04,920 --> 00:10:09,080 Speaker 1: We're Gallman fans, and I think you need as great 191 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:13,280 Speaker 1: a player as Sae Kwon Barkley is. Um it when 192 00:10:13,320 --> 00:10:17,080 Speaker 1: he's healthy. You don't play with one running back, no, 193 00:10:17,679 --> 00:10:19,760 Speaker 1: you you want to have a change of pace. And 194 00:10:19,800 --> 00:10:23,840 Speaker 1: we can see what the change of pace does two defenses, 195 00:10:25,160 --> 00:10:27,760 Speaker 1: even in the absence of Barkley. When you have two 196 00:10:27,800 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: guys and then uh lewis that comes in, it just it. 197 00:10:32,400 --> 00:10:35,000 Speaker 1: It gives you so much flexibility in what you can do, 198 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:37,920 Speaker 1: especially if those guys can do everything. And Goldman is 199 00:10:37,960 --> 00:10:42,960 Speaker 1: a player that is a much more physical player than 200 00:10:43,080 --> 00:10:48,960 Speaker 1: his stature. Um he gets hard yards, carl Um, he 201 00:10:49,040 --> 00:10:52,040 Speaker 1: gets He turns what looks like a one yard game 202 00:10:52,120 --> 00:10:55,000 Speaker 1: into a four yard game, and he doesn't have negative carries. 203 00:10:55,120 --> 00:10:58,560 Speaker 1: There is a place you know in the future in 204 00:10:58,600 --> 00:11:02,520 Speaker 1: the universe for the Giants, for a guy like Wayne Goldman, 205 00:11:02,559 --> 00:11:04,680 Speaker 1: if they choose to stick with him, because you know, 206 00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:08,160 Speaker 1: his rookie contract will expire and they'll have to make 207 00:11:08,160 --> 00:11:10,480 Speaker 1: a decision. It's not there'll be a huge market for him, 208 00:11:10,559 --> 00:11:13,200 Speaker 1: I don't think. But he's a player that is a 209 00:11:13,320 --> 00:11:17,319 Speaker 1: valuable plan. You need players like that. You need good 210 00:11:17,360 --> 00:11:20,319 Speaker 1: football players, Yeah, you do. And you know you talk 211 00:11:20,360 --> 00:11:23,679 Speaker 1: about the market, there will be a market for him, um, 212 00:11:23,720 --> 00:11:26,959 Speaker 1: because he has value and he brings value at the 213 00:11:27,000 --> 00:11:29,840 Speaker 1: premier level. I don't know what the market will be 214 00:11:29,880 --> 00:11:32,320 Speaker 1: for running backs anyway, but there'll be a lot of 215 00:11:32,360 --> 00:11:35,240 Speaker 1: teams who could benefit from him UH in their on 216 00:11:35,320 --> 00:11:37,960 Speaker 1: their roster and in their rotation. I just hope that 217 00:11:38,440 --> 00:11:42,240 Speaker 1: the Giants see the value and UH find a way 218 00:11:42,240 --> 00:11:46,160 Speaker 1: to keep him on in a Blue uniform. It's interesting 219 00:11:46,200 --> 00:11:49,360 Speaker 1: because Sae Kwon Barkley got hurt last season in Week 220 00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,200 Speaker 1: three and Daniel Jones's debut at Tampa Bay, and then 221 00:11:52,240 --> 00:11:56,480 Speaker 1: Goldman had started the Washington game, which the Giants, and 222 00:11:56,520 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: then unfortunately he suffered a concussion if memory serves me, 223 00:11:59,040 --> 00:12:01,040 Speaker 1: correcting the very next game against the Vikings. So he's 224 00:12:01,080 --> 00:12:03,720 Speaker 1: limited to two carries, and then after that, little by little, 225 00:12:03,760 --> 00:12:05,600 Speaker 1: say Kwon Barkley returned to the line up. But we 226 00:12:05,640 --> 00:12:08,400 Speaker 1: are talking about the Giants rushing attack, which was very 227 00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,360 Speaker 1: productive over the course of their win over Washington twenty 228 00:12:12,400 --> 00:12:14,319 Speaker 1: and the Giants Power Report, brought to you by P s, 229 00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:16,960 Speaker 1: C and G committed to providing safe, reliable energy now 230 00:12:17,000 --> 00:12:19,560 Speaker 1: and in the future. Thirty five runs for a hundred 231 00:12:19,600 --> 00:12:22,760 Speaker 1: sixty five yards. Wayne Goldman led the way with fourteen 232 00:12:22,800 --> 00:12:25,640 Speaker 1: carries for sixty eight yards, Alfred Morris nine for sixty 233 00:12:25,720 --> 00:12:28,240 Speaker 1: seven and as Bob and car were mentioning, I think 234 00:12:28,240 --> 00:12:31,000 Speaker 1: probably the best way to break down how effective the 235 00:12:31,040 --> 00:12:33,440 Speaker 1: rushing attack was if you remove the kneel downs that 236 00:12:33,520 --> 00:12:34,840 Speaker 1: happened at the end of the first half and the 237 00:12:34,840 --> 00:12:37,000 Speaker 1: second half. They had one negative run today and that 238 00:12:37,080 --> 00:12:39,040 Speaker 1: was just Alfred Morris, who had a loss of two 239 00:12:39,120 --> 00:12:41,400 Speaker 1: yards in the second half. Outside of that, everything else 240 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,920 Speaker 1: was positive yardage and that is a step in the 241 00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:46,199 Speaker 1: right direction as well. Let's head back to the lines 242 00:12:46,280 --> 00:12:49,120 Speaker 1: at eight seven seven three three seven sixty six sixty 243 00:12:49,160 --> 00:12:51,600 Speaker 1: six and we check in with Ralph in Florida. Ralph, 244 00:12:51,640 --> 00:13:01,959 Speaker 1: what's happening here, guys? You know player. Is one really 245 00:13:02,040 --> 00:13:05,160 Speaker 1: like turnaboumental in the game. I mean really, because after 246 00:13:05,200 --> 00:13:09,120 Speaker 1: every inglands dropped, it just seemed like the whole edge 247 00:13:09,200 --> 00:13:12,520 Speaker 1: just out of this team. And I've never seen something 248 00:13:12,559 --> 00:13:16,880 Speaker 1: like that. Is that only happening that? Uh no, it 249 00:13:16,920 --> 00:13:21,079 Speaker 1: has always happened, because when those types of plays happen 250 00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:26,000 Speaker 1: in key moments and you're in a tenuous situation just 251 00:13:26,160 --> 00:13:29,160 Speaker 1: based on your win loss record, the you know, the 252 00:13:29,440 --> 00:13:32,400 Speaker 1: the balance is so delicate whether or not you can 253 00:13:32,440 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: go in the tank or fight out of it. And 254 00:13:35,160 --> 00:13:37,760 Speaker 1: you saw it in the Philadelphia game. I'm sorry, in 255 00:13:37,800 --> 00:13:41,319 Speaker 1: the Dallas game. No, no, it's Philadelphia game. When you're 256 00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:44,400 Speaker 1: running your five minute offense and Philly never sees the 257 00:13:44,440 --> 00:13:47,800 Speaker 1: field again if he catches the ball, or you know, 258 00:13:47,880 --> 00:13:51,079 Speaker 1: when you have a key drop and you're basically en 259 00:13:51,240 --> 00:13:54,079 Speaker 1: route to putting the game away or at least getting 260 00:13:54,120 --> 00:13:57,200 Speaker 1: a field goal and limiting what the opponent could do 261 00:13:57,280 --> 00:14:01,920 Speaker 1: in stopping their momentum. So football is a game of momentum. 262 00:14:02,440 --> 00:14:06,040 Speaker 1: So I don't know if it's subconscious or conscious or both, 263 00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:09,680 Speaker 1: but when you have a play and an untimely spot 264 00:14:09,760 --> 00:14:12,520 Speaker 1: by a player you're counting on to make it for you, 265 00:14:13,120 --> 00:14:17,080 Speaker 1: it shifts your momentum is shift the the energy shifts 266 00:14:17,120 --> 00:14:21,840 Speaker 1: on your team. Now your contrast that what happened defensively 267 00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:26,120 Speaker 1: for the Giants a unit that has played well, that's 268 00:14:26,120 --> 00:14:29,720 Speaker 1: have a little more I would say mental balance. They 269 00:14:29,760 --> 00:14:33,000 Speaker 1: gave up some plays, but their last two series of 270 00:14:33,040 --> 00:14:36,520 Speaker 1: the football game they went out and made interceptions so 271 00:14:36,600 --> 00:14:38,920 Speaker 1: they didn't get down in the dumps. But you know, 272 00:14:39,000 --> 00:14:42,000 Speaker 1: these things can tip the balance either way when you 273 00:14:42,080 --> 00:14:46,040 Speaker 1: have a guy or or situations that could put your 274 00:14:46,080 --> 00:14:49,440 Speaker 1: team over the top. And Ralph appreciate the phone call, 275 00:14:49,520 --> 00:14:51,720 Speaker 1: Thanks so much for weighing in.

We knew the 301 00:15:57,120 --> 00:15:58,640 Speaker 1: second he came in the game plan was going to 302 00:15:58,800 --> 00:16:01,520 Speaker 1: change slightly from it Allen would have done. But obviously 303 00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,560 Speaker 1: knew he was a very capable player who he showed 304 00:16:03,600 --> 00:16:05,680 Speaker 1: going through the stretch, and obviously a lot of things 305 00:16:05,680 --> 00:16:06,960 Speaker 1: to give them a chance to win at the end. 306 00:16:07,160 --> 00:16:11,560 Speaker 1: So that being said, like gover to many questions in CBS, 307 00:16:12,680 --> 00:16:16,760 Speaker 1: congratulations Joe on the victory after so many close losses. 308 00:16:17,720 --> 00:16:20,720 Speaker 1: Once they cut the lead to three, what was the 309 00:16:20,840 --> 00:16:23,200 Speaker 1: vibe on the sideline that you got. Was it, oh, no, 310 00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:27,360 Speaker 1: here we go again, or no, not this time? No 311 00:16:27,520 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 1: for us? The whole message was finished. You know, that's 312 00:16:29,240 --> 00:16:31,080 Speaker 1: something you can constantly hear a players saying over and 313 00:16:31,120 --> 00:16:32,880 Speaker 1: over and over. We talked about that before the game, 314 00:16:32,920 --> 00:16:35,200 Speaker 1: at halftime, throughout the game on the side and we 315 00:16:35,240 --> 00:16:37,080 Speaker 1: have to finish the game.

We had respond whatever came our way. 319 00:16:43,680 --> 00:16:46,000 Speaker 1: Washington made some plays down the stretch, but we're able 320 00:16:46,040 --> 00:16:48,239 Speaker 1: to come with some big turnovers and a key situations, 321 00:16:48,560 --> 00:16:50,880 Speaker 1: and you know, you're kind of getting a players, players 322 00:16:50,880 --> 00:16:52,320 Speaker 1: like Logan and Blake to make some place for you 323 00:16:52,360 --> 00:16:56,160 Speaker 1: down the stretch, and they came through for our Schwartz 324 00:16:56,240 --> 00:17:00,520 Speaker 1: New York Post. Hey, Joe, in the game where um, 325 00:17:00,560 --> 00:17:03,720 Speaker 1: your team has five turnovers, you know, forces five turnovers 326 00:17:03,720 --> 00:17:05,960 Speaker 1: and doesn't do any um in the margin is only 327 00:17:06,000 --> 00:17:08,760 Speaker 1: three points. M what does that tell you about what 328 00:17:08,920 --> 00:17:11,000 Speaker 1: happened in this game? And and and where would your 329 00:17:11,040 --> 00:17:13,960 Speaker 1: team have been without those turnovers? Well, it's a big 330 00:17:13,960 --> 00:17:16,120 Speaker 1: part of the game. And obviously, between penalties and turnovers 331 00:17:16,119 --> 00:17:17,719 Speaker 1: and mental erreas, those are things you have to eliminate 332 00:17:17,720 --> 00:17:19,640 Speaker 1: to have a chance to win the game. Our team 333 00:17:19,680 --> 00:17:21,399 Speaker 1: came out here prepared today. We did a good job 334 00:17:21,480 --> 00:17:23,480 Speaker 1: with turnovers and ball security. We did a good job 335 00:17:23,480 --> 00:17:25,600 Speaker 1: in terms of limiting some of the penalties. There's still 336 00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:27,040 Speaker 1: things we have to get off the map right there 337 00:17:27,040 --> 00:17:28,760 Speaker 1: and eliminate from how we're playing. We don't want to 338 00:17:28,800 --> 00:17:31,879 Speaker 1: have anything to take us back within drives uh and 339 00:17:31,920 --> 00:17:33,800 Speaker 1: Mentallaris that guys played a pretty clean game. They were 340 00:17:33,880 --> 00:17:36,000 Speaker 1: very well prepared and all three sides of the ball. Um, 341 00:17:36,000 --> 00:17:37,520 Speaker 1: please are some of the things we're able to install 342 00:17:37,560 --> 00:17:39,920 Speaker 1: for our guys on Saturday, UM the last call the 343 00:17:39,920 --> 00:17:41,200 Speaker 1: game of something Pat was able to put it in 344 00:17:41,240 --> 00:17:43,760 Speaker 1: a walk through on Saturday that we talked Saturday morning. 345 00:17:43,760 --> 00:17:45,720 Speaker 1: He thought of something that could help. Obviously, it was 346 00:17:46,119 --> 00:17:48,080 Speaker 1: you know, Logan was a feature player on that defense, 347 00:17:48,080 --> 00:17:50,040 Speaker 1: and he's able to come away with the play pretty 348 00:17:50,080 --> 00:17:53,760 Speaker 1: much exactly how Pat designed it. Zach Rosenblatt and Ja 349 00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:56,840 Speaker 1: dot Com and Joe I know, we obviously have asked 350 00:17:56,880 --> 00:17:58,600 Speaker 1: you a lot about Daniel Jones and turning the ball 351 00:17:58,640 --> 00:18:00,600 Speaker 1: over it in turn it over to Night know he 352 00:18:00,640 --> 00:18:02,280 Speaker 1: when he got sacked, he held onto the ball. There 353 00:18:02,320 --> 00:18:03,960 Speaker 1: was a few occasions where he threw it away instead 354 00:18:04,000 --> 00:18:06,000 Speaker 1: of trying to force it, Like what was it encouraging 355 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,119 Speaker 1: seeing him kind of not make the same mistakes that 356 00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:10,160 Speaker 1: he had been a lot of this season. I think 357 00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:11,879 Speaker 1: Daniel played a really good game today. I thought he 358 00:18:11,920 --> 00:18:14,280 Speaker 1: distributed the ball across the board. I saw make a 359 00:18:14,280 --> 00:18:16,200 Speaker 1: lot of really good decisions when he was in tight 360 00:18:16,280 --> 00:18:18,160 Speaker 1: kind of conflict in the pocket, throwing the ball away 361 00:18:18,160 --> 00:18:20,280 Speaker 1: at different times. He was able to run with some 362 00:18:20,280 --> 00:18:22,040 Speaker 1: good ball security and make sure he got some tough 363 00:18:22,119 --> 00:18:24,200 Speaker 1: yards for us and delivered a lot of good accurate passes. 364 00:18:24,520 --> 00:18:26,440 Speaker 1: So I thought Daniel really managed the game and control 365 00:18:26,440 --> 00:18:27,879 Speaker 1: of the game, was able to make some plays for 366 00:18:27,960 --> 00:18:30,560 Speaker 1: us down the stretch. UM very pleased to how he 367 00:18:30,600 --> 00:18:32,119 Speaker 1: prepared throughout the week and the results we got from 368 00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,840 Speaker 1: him today. What can you say about Alfred Morris who 369 00:18:35,000 --> 00:18:36,439 Speaker 1: you know, he came up from the practice squide and 370 00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:39,560 Speaker 1: last two weeks he's had some big runs, especially today. Yeah. 371 00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:41,440 Speaker 1: I mean, look, we count everybody on our roster to 372 00:18:41,480 --> 00:18:43,640 Speaker 1: make production for us. You know, everyone our team's part 373 00:18:43,640 --> 00:18:45,800 Speaker 1: of the plan every week. The Offred's a guy that 374 00:18:45,840 --> 00:18:47,280 Speaker 1: came in here. Took him a few weeks of kind 375 00:18:47,280 --> 00:18:49,639 Speaker 1: of getting really into football shape, you know, along with 376 00:18:49,680 --> 00:18:51,400 Speaker 1: our offense. He had a jump start from his time 377 00:18:51,440 --> 00:18:54,320 Speaker 1: for Jason before. But look, he hasn't wasted opportunities he's 378 00:18:54,320 --> 00:18:56,840 Speaker 1: gotten and he's made big runs for us. Um, He's 379 00:18:56,840 --> 00:18:58,760 Speaker 1: a guy that our guys respond to a lot. We knew, 380 00:18:58,800 --> 00:19:00,399 Speaker 1: you know, this was a game that he gonna come 381 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:02,000 Speaker 1: down and like he would any week for this is 382 00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:03,359 Speaker 1: a game that meant something to him right here, and 383 00:19:03,400 --> 00:19:05,280 Speaker 1: he came in and really gave him some good production. 384 00:19:06,480 --> 00:19:09,760 Speaker 1: I'm rock Newsdayyo, you probably didn't get exactly what you 385 00:19:09,800 --> 00:19:12,320 Speaker 1: wanted out of that last possession. They're only taking sixteen 386 00:19:12,359 --> 00:19:15,119 Speaker 1: seconds off the clock. But the last play when Daniel 387 00:19:15,160 --> 00:19:17,040 Speaker 1: gets sacked and his arm is kind of behind him 388 00:19:17,040 --> 00:19:19,040 Speaker 1: with with the ball in it and he's able to 389 00:19:19,040 --> 00:19:21,080 Speaker 1: hold onto it, you know, is that is that the 390 00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:23,680 Speaker 1: kind of play that he probably maybe doesn't make it 391 00:19:23,720 --> 00:19:26,600 Speaker 1: earlier in the season. Yeah, I couldn't really answer that 392 00:19:26,640 --> 00:19:28,480 Speaker 1: one right there, Tom, I'm pleased with how it worked out. 393 00:19:28,480 --> 00:19:30,560 Speaker 1: Ball security, wasn't that play Obviously, we don't want to 394 00:19:30,560 --> 00:19:32,280 Speaker 1: have a free runner make a hit on our quarterback. 395 00:19:32,920 --> 00:19:34,480 Speaker 1: But the goal is in every drive with a kick 396 00:19:34,520 --> 00:19:36,160 Speaker 1: in an extra point, a field goal, or a punt, 397 00:19:36,480 --> 00:19:38,080 Speaker 1: you know, on whatever time a game that is. We 398 00:19:38,080 --> 00:19:39,760 Speaker 1: were able to end it in that drive right there 399 00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:41,440 Speaker 1: with a punt we got good. Uh, you know, I 400 00:19:41,440 --> 00:19:43,280 Speaker 1: from Riley came in there. Gives a little bit of 401 00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:45,080 Speaker 1: fuel position that defense go able to go out there 402 00:19:45,080 --> 00:19:46,760 Speaker 1: and make a play. And then can you just talk 403 00:19:46,760 --> 00:19:48,840 Speaker 1: about the week that Logan had, you know, between the 404 00:19:49,200 --> 00:19:51,720 Speaker 1: you know obviously obviously the thing with his wife, and 405 00:19:51,760 --> 00:19:55,240 Speaker 1: then and then sealing this win. I think it's kind 406 00:19:55,240 --> 00:19:57,800 Speaker 1: of just who Logan is. Logan is very mentally tough 407 00:19:57,800 --> 00:20:00,479 Speaker 1: football player. He's a great team leader. There's a lot 408 00:20:00,480 --> 00:20:02,320 Speaker 1: of things behind the scenes that people don't know or 409 00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:05,080 Speaker 1: see that Logan really brings to a team. Um, that's 410 00:20:05,080 --> 00:20:07,199 Speaker 1: something I've seen really evolved throughout his career, you know, 411 00:20:07,240 --> 00:20:09,280 Speaker 1: first coaching him when he was a younger player, and 412 00:20:09,280 --> 00:20:10,840 Speaker 1: then having to coach against him when he was on 413 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:13,080 Speaker 1: an opponent team, an opposing team and he beat you 414 00:20:13,280 --> 00:20:15,240 Speaker 1: and you know that he's a key catalyst and one 415 00:20:15,280 --> 00:20:17,280 Speaker 1: of those games. Now being back on a team with him, 416 00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:19,480 Speaker 1: you can see, you know, how his maturity and his 417 00:20:19,560 --> 00:20:21,560 Speaker 1: age has really helped him settle in th Really what 418 00:20:21,640 --> 00:20:24,040 Speaker 1: his personality isn't And Logan is a tremendous leader for 419 00:20:24,160 --> 00:20:26,560 Speaker 1: us on and off the field, and he brings a 420 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:28,520 Speaker 1: lot of versatility on the field. But I'll say the 421 00:20:28,600 --> 00:20:30,080 Speaker 1: things he went through all the time, and we talk 422 00:20:30,119 --> 00:20:32,639 Speaker 1: a lot to our players about overcoming adversity. There's a 423 00:20:32,640 --> 00:20:35,120 Speaker 1: guy that overcame adversity on the field this week, made 424 00:20:35,119 --> 00:20:37,439 Speaker 1: big plays, but really off the field is where it started. 425 00:20:37,440 --> 00:20:39,160 Speaker 1: And the things that he had away from the away 426 00:20:39,160 --> 00:20:41,679 Speaker 1: from the building, he never brings it in. You know, 427 00:20:41,760 --> 00:20:43,280 Speaker 1: he comes on and you can ask him how it is, 428 00:20:43,320 --> 00:20:45,239 Speaker 1: always gonna tell you everything's going great, even though you 429 00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,639 Speaker 1: know it's not. Uh. He puts the team first when 430 00:20:47,640 --> 00:20:49,920 Speaker 1: he's in the building, is all business, and he always 431 00:20:49,920 --> 00:20:52,240 Speaker 1: takes time to personally check on his teammates. You know, 432 00:20:52,240 --> 00:20:53,840 Speaker 1: I couldn't tell you how glad I'm not Logan on 433 00:20:53,880 --> 00:20:57,240 Speaker 1: his team, um, and how valuable is to us Dan 434 00:20:57,359 --> 00:21:00,159 Speaker 1: Dougane the athletic Yo. I mean you really up to 435 00:21:00,320 --> 00:21:02,959 Speaker 1: the offensive line more than you even have previously. Just 436 00:21:03,000 --> 00:21:05,639 Speaker 1: what was the thought process? But that was that all predetermined? 437 00:21:05,680 --> 00:21:07,080 Speaker 1: Was that based on the game and how did you 438 00:21:07,119 --> 00:21:09,240 Speaker 1: think it played out? No, it's like I've said, you 439 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:10,960 Speaker 1: know previous press conscious Dan, I just want to play 440 00:21:10,960 --> 00:21:13,399 Speaker 1: everyone at the game right there. So you know, tackle wise, 441 00:21:13,440 --> 00:21:15,400 Speaker 1: we're really three for two at that spot. Guard wise, 442 00:21:15,440 --> 00:21:18,200 Speaker 1: say really two for two. Um, you know Will should 443 00:21:18,240 --> 00:21:20,560 Speaker 1: be back, you know, sooner than later. Force I plan 444 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,880 Speaker 1: on being three for two with those positions as well. Inside. 445 00:21:23,200 --> 00:21:24,920 Speaker 1: So we're gonna try to play everyone at the game 446 00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,119 Speaker 1: every week, make sure we stay fresh. If everybody experience, 447 00:21:27,200 --> 00:21:29,320 Speaker 1: keep on a proven I think we have good players 448 00:21:29,359 --> 00:21:32,000 Speaker 1: at position, will give a chance to play. Thanks sure 449 00:21:33,520 --> 00:21:37,760 Speaker 1: our stapens. Hey, Joe on the play that you said 450 00:21:37,800 --> 00:21:41,800 Speaker 1: you guys installed on on Saturday. Was that similar to 451 00:21:41,880 --> 00:21:43,560 Speaker 1: the play that you had the last time you played 452 00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:46,800 Speaker 1: Washington when Bradberry was in the right spot on one 453 00:21:46,800 --> 00:21:48,960 Speaker 1: of the crossers or was it? Was it a completely 454 00:21:49,000 --> 00:21:53,280 Speaker 1: different scheme and coverage? It was a different coverage. It 455 00:21:53,359 --> 00:21:55,320 Speaker 1: was a different coverage. I mean we both have some 456 00:21:55,400 --> 00:21:57,040 Speaker 1: kind of disguise to them, which is really kind of 457 00:21:57,040 --> 00:21:59,680 Speaker 1: a path does a good job of, you know, using pieces. 458 00:22:00,080 --> 00:22:01,480 Speaker 1: He does a really good job and be able to 459 00:22:01,480 --> 00:22:03,960 Speaker 1: do things that are similar in nature and concept and 460 00:22:03,960 --> 00:22:06,520 Speaker 1: then just change at the presentation of them. So there's 461 00:22:06,520 --> 00:22:08,920 Speaker 1: different ways of getting the familiar schemes for us. That's 462 00:22:08,960 --> 00:22:10,200 Speaker 1: something we have to be able to do as a 463 00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:12,000 Speaker 1: team to play and what our strengths are, but be 464 00:22:12,040 --> 00:22:13,480 Speaker 1: able to change up so they can't just sit back 465 00:22:13,480 --> 00:22:16,560 Speaker 1: and identify everything. Alex a very experienced player. You know, 466 00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:18,960 Speaker 1: he's seen a lot of different defenses. You know, last 467 00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:21,040 Speaker 1: week we had Tom Tom seeing every different defense you 468 00:22:21,040 --> 00:22:22,560 Speaker 1: can imagine throwing at him. So you have to be 469 00:22:22,560 --> 00:22:25,480 Speaker 1: creative and how you play what you really want to play. 470 00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:27,000 Speaker 1: But it really it's about how you presented to them 471 00:22:27,000 --> 00:22:29,040 Speaker 1: and what they see it as. So again, that was 472 00:22:29,080 --> 00:22:31,200 Speaker 1: with something Pat walked in early Saturday morning. We talked 473 00:22:31,200 --> 00:22:32,960 Speaker 1: about it, you know, briefly in terms of something he 474 00:22:33,000 --> 00:22:36,000 Speaker 1: wanted to do. Um, look, I want to let my 475 00:22:36,040 --> 00:22:39,080 Speaker 1: coaches coach if it's sound okay, if there's a rhyme 476 00:22:39,119 --> 00:22:40,439 Speaker 1: and reason to it, and he thinks it's a way 477 00:22:40,480 --> 00:22:42,359 Speaker 1: for us to be aggressive and make a difference in 478 00:22:42,359 --> 00:22:44,520 Speaker 1: the game. I'm always yeah, go ahead, installed let's play 479 00:22:44,560 --> 00:22:45,760 Speaker 1: with it. So whether we draw it up in the 480 00:22:45,800 --> 00:22:48,919 Speaker 1: dirt on the sideline, okay, or we draw it up 481 00:22:48,920 --> 00:22:50,399 Speaker 1: on Saturday morning, give it to the players and give 482 00:22:50,480 --> 00:22:52,160 Speaker 1: them time to really go in and just we've got 483 00:22:52,160 --> 00:22:54,320 Speaker 1: to be a smart enough team to take those last 484 00:22:54,320 --> 00:22:57,040 Speaker 1: minute adjustments and apply them to a game. Let's take 485 00:22:57,080 --> 00:23:03,720 Speaker 1: two more. Pat Leonard and Jordan Pat Leonard Daily News. Hey, Joe, UM, 486 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,880 Speaker 1: a couple of guys wanted to ask you about Austin Mack. 487 00:23:06,080 --> 00:23:09,440 Speaker 1: I'll lead you, guys and receive in receiving. You know, Um, 488 00:23:09,480 --> 00:23:13,320 Speaker 1: how has he become such a significant part of your team? Um, 489 00:23:13,400 --> 00:23:15,240 Speaker 1: so quickly, you know, just by the midpoint of his 490 00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:17,320 Speaker 1: rookie year. And I know he got hurt, but Cayton 491 00:23:17,400 --> 00:23:19,840 Speaker 1: Smith really seemed to be a huge key to your 492 00:23:19,920 --> 00:23:22,840 Speaker 1: running game today. Yeah, I'll say what. I definitely noticed 493 00:23:22,880 --> 00:23:24,880 Speaker 1: Kayden and several of those drives of him really getting 494 00:23:24,960 --> 00:23:27,080 Speaker 1: up off the ground after knocking someone on the ground. 495 00:23:27,480 --> 00:23:29,399 Speaker 1: You know, he's really good blocker force. He's also a 496 00:23:29,400 --> 00:23:32,040 Speaker 1: good receiver force, so he's really more of a traditional 497 00:23:32,080 --> 00:23:33,920 Speaker 1: tight end. I think he's really growing in that role 498 00:23:33,960 --> 00:23:37,919 Speaker 1: in a positive way as a run blocker and receiver. Um, 499 00:23:38,000 --> 00:23:40,120 Speaker 1: who was the first part of that right there? Mac 500 00:23:40,359 --> 00:23:42,440 Speaker 1: that Oh yeah, I just say, Look, the thing about 501 00:23:42,440 --> 00:23:45,400 Speaker 1: Austin is this guy gets better every day and he's 502 00:23:45,400 --> 00:23:47,040 Speaker 1: been that way since day one. You know, we start 503 00:23:47,080 --> 00:23:48,919 Speaker 1: on the zoom calls back and you know the spring. 504 00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:51,280 Speaker 1: He's a guy who's one the first one signed in. 505 00:23:51,320 --> 00:23:53,760 Speaker 1: He's are to ask questions, early clean up material, He's 506 00:23:53,760 --> 00:23:55,800 Speaker 1: always looking for extra work. He's the guy who leaves 507 00:23:55,800 --> 00:23:59,240 Speaker 1: the field last. He's always got a smile on his face. Um, 508 00:23:59,240 --> 00:24:01,800 Speaker 1: he takes hardcode really well. He's gotta been very demanding 509 00:24:01,880 --> 00:24:04,359 Speaker 1: on challenged him a great deal. But simply put, I 510 00:24:04,400 --> 00:24:06,560 Speaker 1: think he's a guy that you know, he hasn't wasted 511 00:24:06,600 --> 00:24:09,959 Speaker 1: any opportunities. He was on a practice squad, window opened, 512 00:24:10,040 --> 00:24:13,040 Speaker 1: he came in, He's made plays all right. Ball comes 513 00:24:13,080 --> 00:24:15,840 Speaker 1: his way, he's productive with it. So really that's just 514 00:24:15,880 --> 00:24:17,760 Speaker 1: our kind of mode of operation. You know, whoever's at 515 00:24:17,800 --> 00:24:19,600 Speaker 1: the game, we kind of get production. Today. It was 516 00:24:19,640 --> 00:24:21,600 Speaker 1: a good day from him right there. We kind of 517 00:24:21,600 --> 00:24:22,960 Speaker 1: getting more days like that in the future, but we 518 00:24:23,040 --> 00:24:24,800 Speaker 1: kind of get more production from all of our players 519 00:24:25,040 --> 00:24:31,160 Speaker 1: all the time. Thanks. Last question here joined we're not ESPN, Joe. Yeah, 520 00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:33,879 Speaker 1: I know you're two and seven, but the reality is 521 00:24:33,920 --> 00:24:36,480 Speaker 1: you're in the NFC East mix and now next week 522 00:24:37,080 --> 00:24:39,199 Speaker 1: is a huge game in regards to the division. What 523 00:24:39,240 --> 00:24:41,240 Speaker 1: do you think of that, knowing that you're two and 524 00:24:41,280 --> 00:24:44,200 Speaker 1: seven at this point. Yeah, throw the record away. It's irrelevant. 525 00:24:44,240 --> 00:24:45,520 Speaker 1: It's gonna be a big game for us no matter 526 00:24:45,520 --> 00:24:47,840 Speaker 1: who we played, but especially at Philadelphia coming in the 527 00:24:47,880 --> 00:24:50,119 Speaker 1: records completely relevant this game, Jordan, And look, we're just 528 00:24:50,160 --> 00:24:52,480 Speaker 1: trying to go one. No every week. I'm not posting 529 00:24:52,480 --> 00:24:54,080 Speaker 1: in front of my team what the record is for 530 00:24:54,080 --> 00:24:56,320 Speaker 1: the season, to be completely honestly, right now, that's the 531 00:24:56,400 --> 00:24:58,080 Speaker 1: last thing we should care about, you know. We have 532 00:24:58,119 --> 00:24:59,840 Speaker 1: to worry about day by day and week by week. 533 00:25:00,080 --> 00:25:02,919 Speaker 1: Can constant improvement as a team moving in the right direction. 534 00:25:03,000 --> 00:25:04,760 Speaker 1: I see that. I'm pleased with that. I love the 535 00:25:04,760 --> 00:25:06,159 Speaker 1: way these guys come to work. I love the way 536 00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,080 Speaker 1: they fight for each other on Sunday's um. But I 537 00:25:09,080 --> 00:25:11,399 Speaker 1: don't care what the record is on any year. The 538 00:25:11,400 --> 00:25:13,760 Speaker 1: fact that we're playing Philadelphia's a division game, it's obviously 539 00:25:13,760 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 1: a big game for us, all right. So that was 540 00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:20,720 Speaker 1: head coach Joe Judge speaking to the media following the 541 00:25:20,760 --> 00:25:25,480 Speaker 1: Giants win over Washington, he spoke about Daniel Jones decision 542 00:25:25,520 --> 00:25:28,480 Speaker 1: making as well as the team's ability to close the 543 00:25:28,520 --> 00:25:30,520 Speaker 1: door and they will now look ahead, as he mentioned 544 00:25:30,520 --> 00:25:34,159 Speaker 1: to Philadelphia at home next Sunday before the bye, and 545 00:25:34,760 --> 00:25:36,800 Speaker 1: as I bring in Bob and Carl before we bid 546 00:25:36,880 --> 00:25:39,239 Speaker 1: them goodbye. Bob, one of the statistics that I think 547 00:25:39,320 --> 00:25:41,760 Speaker 1: jumps out to me from this game is the fact 548 00:25:41,800 --> 00:25:44,080 Speaker 1: that Daniel Jones stowes the ball thirty four times, they 549 00:25:44,160 --> 00:25:46,720 Speaker 1: run the ball thirty five times. You love the balance there. 550 00:25:46,760 --> 00:25:48,640 Speaker 1: And then on the flip side, even though the game 551 00:25:48,680 --> 00:25:51,440 Speaker 1: got close, Washington only round the ball nine times, had 552 00:25:51,480 --> 00:25:53,960 Speaker 1: to throw the ball thirty nine times, and you like 553 00:25:54,080 --> 00:25:57,320 Speaker 1: your chances to get five takeaways under those circumstances, given 554 00:25:57,359 --> 00:26:01,800 Speaker 1: what Washington's offense has struggled to do this season. Yeah, well, Lance, 555 00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:05,280 Speaker 1: some of the early fumbles, uh, and then the Alex 556 00:26:05,320 --> 00:26:08,280 Speaker 1: Smith interception late in the first half when Mkissic fell 557 00:26:08,320 --> 00:26:11,720 Speaker 1: down and and Martinez got the interception led to the 558 00:26:11,760 --> 00:26:16,399 Speaker 1: twenty three leads. So it kind of curtails the opponent's 559 00:26:16,480 --> 00:26:19,879 Speaker 1: run game. And especially at the fact that after Washington 560 00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:22,840 Speaker 1: scored on the opening possession of the third quarter. The 561 00:26:22,880 --> 00:26:25,640 Speaker 1: Giants went on a very productive drive, although it only 562 00:26:25,760 --> 00:26:28,679 Speaker 1: ended in three points. You know, they took seven minutes 563 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:31,480 Speaker 1: and eleven seconds off the clock or whatever it was, 564 00:26:31,560 --> 00:26:35,359 Speaker 1: so the game got shortened and it forced Washington to 565 00:26:35,440 --> 00:26:39,680 Speaker 1: have to be very one dimensional and throw the football. Yeah, 566 00:26:39,680 --> 00:26:42,399 Speaker 1: the Giants had the ball for nearly thirteen more minutes 567 00:26:42,520 --> 00:26:45,480 Speaker 1: then Washington. So game flow, to your point, certainly played 568 00:26:45,520 --> 00:26:48,879 Speaker 1: into the hands of the Giants today, Carl. They got 569 00:26:48,920 --> 00:26:52,920 Speaker 1: Philadelphia next Sunday, an opportunity to build off of this 570 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 1: win some momentum. I know, Joe Judge was asked about 571 00:26:56,119 --> 00:26:58,280 Speaker 1: how big this game was. They've got plenty more games 572 00:26:58,280 --> 00:27:00,720 Speaker 1: after that. But now things are all of a sudden 573 00:27:00,760 --> 00:27:04,080 Speaker 1: setting up nicely for the Giants to maybe make some noisier. Well, 574 00:27:04,240 --> 00:27:07,560 Speaker 1: they set up for them to continue to build on 575 00:27:07,640 --> 00:27:12,359 Speaker 1: what they've started. And so I mean, it's you really 576 00:27:12,400 --> 00:27:14,480 Speaker 1: can't look at this in terms of the division. You 577 00:27:14,560 --> 00:27:17,240 Speaker 1: got to look at this in terms of charting the 578 00:27:17,280 --> 00:27:20,720 Speaker 1: Giants growth. Um. They've got to put together a few 579 00:27:20,800 --> 00:27:23,280 Speaker 1: victories before we can start to talk about, you know, 580 00:27:23,320 --> 00:27:26,400 Speaker 1: what the division looks like for them. Um, Because They've 581 00:27:26,400 --> 00:27:27,879 Speaker 1: got a lot of things clean up. Look, when you 582 00:27:27,920 --> 00:27:31,200 Speaker 1: get five turnovers, you take the victory. But you know, 583 00:27:31,720 --> 00:27:34,080 Speaker 1: if you only one by three and it's a ratio 584 00:27:34,160 --> 00:27:37,399 Speaker 1: of five zip in a turnover category, there should be 585 00:27:37,480 --> 00:27:40,040 Speaker 1: some some things that would have allowed you to have 586 00:27:40,359 --> 00:27:43,960 Speaker 1: a bigger margin of victory. Yeah, I mean, lance Um, 587 00:27:44,119 --> 00:27:46,520 Speaker 1: we could talk about, you know, and I know there'll 588 00:27:46,560 --> 00:27:48,520 Speaker 1: be Giants fans that are gonna start taking out the 589 00:27:48,560 --> 00:27:51,959 Speaker 1: Luigi board and looking at the permutations and you know 590 00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:55,280 Speaker 1: how this team can suddenly, you know, insert themselves in 591 00:27:55,320 --> 00:27:59,199 Speaker 1: the race within the division. To me, carl Um, and 592 00:27:59,280 --> 00:28:02,320 Speaker 1: maybe it's just I don't know. The way I'm looking 593 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,960 Speaker 1: at it is this is about, you know, you gotta 594 00:28:06,000 --> 00:28:11,200 Speaker 1: at some point exercise some demons here and you're gonna 595 00:28:11,240 --> 00:28:13,680 Speaker 1: be playing against a Washington football team. Let me get 596 00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:16,399 Speaker 1: my note card out here, because already already started on 597 00:28:16,480 --> 00:28:20,159 Speaker 1: next week the Eagles football team. I mean, you got 598 00:28:20,200 --> 00:28:23,480 Speaker 1: a team that's coming into your building that is beating 599 00:28:23,520 --> 00:28:26,680 Speaker 1: you eight straight times. They have beaten you twelve of 600 00:28:26,760 --> 00:28:30,600 Speaker 1: the last thirteen since two thousand and eight, they have 601 00:28:30,680 --> 00:28:33,800 Speaker 1: beaten you, counting the postseason, twenty one out of a 602 00:28:33,880 --> 00:28:37,960 Speaker 1: possible twenty six games. You have found every which way 603 00:28:38,040 --> 00:28:41,160 Speaker 1: under the sun. To losing overtime, to lose on a 604 00:28:41,400 --> 00:28:45,160 Speaker 1: sixty yard field goal, to lose on a game in 605 00:28:45,160 --> 00:28:47,920 Speaker 1: which you led by eleven with six point six minutes 606 00:28:47,960 --> 00:28:52,400 Speaker 1: to go, forget about division record, to forget about getting 607 00:28:52,400 --> 00:28:54,720 Speaker 1: yourself in position with a play. The Giants as a 608 00:28:54,800 --> 00:29:00,000 Speaker 1: franchise need to exercise this demon that is Philadelphia, figure 609 00:29:00,000 --> 00:29:02,400 Speaker 1: out of way to win the game. Bacon play as 610 00:29:02,520 --> 00:29:07,360 Speaker 1: ugly as the Cows come home. They need to beat 611 00:29:07,360 --> 00:29:10,640 Speaker 1: Philadelphia more than anything else. Yeah, they need to solve 612 00:29:10,640 --> 00:29:12,400 Speaker 1: the riddle. Plus it's probably gonna be an Eagles team 613 00:29:12,400 --> 00:29:15,440 Speaker 1: that maybe getting Miles Sanders and how Sean Jeffrey both back. 614 00:29:15,440 --> 00:29:17,680 Speaker 1: According to reports, both of those guys expected to return 615 00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:21,000 Speaker 1: to practice ahead of that game. Guys, always a pleasure, No, 616 00:29:21,120 --> 00:29:22,920 Speaker 1: it doesn't help at all, Always a pleasure going back 617 00:29:22,920 --> 00:29:29,000 Speaker 1: and forth. Will speak to you next Sunday, Bob, Papa 618 00:29:29,040 --> 00:29:32,160 Speaker 1: call Banks weighing in here as the Giants beat Washington 619 00:29:32,880 --> 00:29:35,320 Speaker 1: to twenty.

Will also hear 621 00:29:37,400 --> 00:29:40,280 Speaker 1: from some players as the Giants get their second win 622 00:29:40,360 --> 00:29:42,280 Speaker 1: of the season and second in the division. We'll be 623 00:29:42,280 --> 00:29:46,000 Speaker 1: back right after this.

The 631 00:30:16,480 --> 00:30:18,160 Speaker 1: Player of the Game is brought to you by the 632 00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:23,440 Speaker 1: members and contractors of Local eight Operating Engineers Elect eighty 633 00:30:23,520 --> 00:30:27,480 Speaker 1: five Building our Future. A number of candidates from today's game, 634 00:30:27,560 --> 00:30:29,160 Speaker 1: but we're gonna give the Player of the Game to 635 00:30:29,240 --> 00:30:32,160 Speaker 1: Jabrill Peppers because he essentially did a little bit of everything. 636 00:30:32,200 --> 00:30:34,040 Speaker 1: He was first of all, responsible for two of the 637 00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:37,000 Speaker 1: giants five takeaways. He recovered a fumble right out of 638 00:30:37,000 --> 00:30:41,320 Speaker 1: the gates is Washington's very first play after Gibson ran 639 00:30:41,440 --> 00:30:43,800 Speaker 1: for a few yards coughed it up, so Peppers was 640 00:30:43,840 --> 00:30:45,640 Speaker 1: the one that recovered that, and he had one of 641 00:30:45,680 --> 00:30:48,400 Speaker 1: three interceptions off of Alex Smith in addition to that, 642 00:30:48,800 --> 00:30:51,440 Speaker 1: tied for second on the team with six tackles, four solo, 643 00:30:51,600 --> 00:30:55,080 Speaker 1: and three passes defense, So Jabrill Peppers a big reason 644 00:30:55,120 --> 00:30:57,560 Speaker 1: why the Giants were able to make the necessary defensive 645 00:30:57,560 --> 00:31:01,360 Speaker 1: stops in holding off Washington by three. We will step aside, 646 00:31:01,440 --> 00:31:03,240 Speaker 1: coming up a little bit later on. We'll get some 647 00:31:03,280 --> 00:31:05,960 Speaker 1: player reaction.

Evan Ingram 656 00:31:35,160 --> 00:31:38,280 Speaker 1: hauling in the touchdown pass from Daniel Jones. It capped 657 00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,200 Speaker 1: a ten place, seventy seven yard drive that took four 658 00:31:41,320 --> 00:31:43,720 Speaker 1: fifty three off the clock.

Number two. Bottom line is though it's still 667 00:32:08,160 --> 00:32:11,480 Speaker 1: added up to victory as the Giants get their second 668 00:32:11,520 --> 00:32:14,120 Speaker 1: win of the season. And Jeff, this was a game 669 00:32:14,240 --> 00:32:16,600 Speaker 1: we talked about in the pregame the importance of the 670 00:32:16,640 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 1: Giants running the ball because number one Washington had the 671 00:32:19,440 --> 00:32:22,560 Speaker 1: number one passing defense wearing down their defense, and the 672 00:32:22,560 --> 00:32:24,800 Speaker 1: Giants certainly accomplished that. In the first half alone they 673 00:32:24,800 --> 00:32:28,080 Speaker 1: had over a hundred yards and protecting the football and 674 00:32:28,120 --> 00:32:30,120 Speaker 1: this was here we go, the first game of the season. 675 00:32:30,200 --> 00:32:32,840 Speaker 1: Clean football from start to finish, at least in terms 676 00:32:32,840 --> 00:32:35,280 Speaker 1: of making sure you don't give Washington any gifts or 677 00:32:35,280 --> 00:32:38,120 Speaker 1: you're not gonna get into too many games and not win. 678 00:32:38,640 --> 00:32:41,400 Speaker 1: When you come away with five takeaways and you don't 679 00:32:41,400 --> 00:32:43,680 Speaker 1: turn the ball over um and you rush for a 680 00:32:43,720 --> 00:32:47,120 Speaker 1: hundred sixty five yards and you also have time of 681 00:32:47,120 --> 00:32:49,240 Speaker 1: possession of thirty six minutes and the other team only 682 00:32:49,240 --> 00:32:52,240 Speaker 1: has twenty three, those are I mean you can't ask 683 00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:54,880 Speaker 1: for a better formula to win a football game. The 684 00:32:55,000 --> 00:32:57,000 Speaker 1: one thing that does scare you a little bit, Lance 685 00:32:57,160 --> 00:32:59,440 Speaker 1: is that the five takeaways and you only win the 686 00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:01,640 Speaker 1: game by three points. So there is a little bit 687 00:33:01,640 --> 00:33:04,000 Speaker 1: of a story inside there. And you just said it. 688 00:33:04,160 --> 00:33:06,320 Speaker 1: In the second half, the defense comes to your rescue, 689 00:33:06,400 --> 00:33:08,400 Speaker 1: especially in the last two and a half minutes of 690 00:33:08,400 --> 00:33:11,160 Speaker 1: the game where they get two takeaways. Um, and that's 691 00:33:11,200 --> 00:33:14,840 Speaker 1: part of it. So you will never ever say sorry 692 00:33:14,920 --> 00:33:18,840 Speaker 1: for wins, especially in the division, that's for sure, absolutely, 693 00:33:18,960 --> 00:33:22,240 Speaker 1: especially when the Giants have been hovering around that three 694 00:33:22,280 --> 00:33:24,480 Speaker 1: and three mark in the division or less over the 695 00:33:24,520 --> 00:33:27,200 Speaker 1: last few years. Now, they positioned themselves at five D 696 00:33:27,320 --> 00:33:29,240 Speaker 1: through the first four knowing that they got the Eagles 697 00:33:29,280 --> 00:33:31,560 Speaker 1: coming up on Sunday and then they'll have the Dallas 698 00:33:31,600 --> 00:33:34,160 Speaker 1: Cowboys to finish up the season. Eight seven seven three 699 00:33:34,200 --> 00:33:37,280 Speaker 1: three seven sixty six sixty six. That is the telephone number. 700 00:33:37,360 --> 00:33:39,760 Speaker 1: Let's head back to the phone lines and we check 701 00:33:39,840 --> 00:33:44,560 Speaker 1: in with Bob in New Jersey. Bob, what's happening? Timing 702 00:33:44,600 --> 00:33:47,680 Speaker 1: is everything in life? You guys, to talk about ever 703 00:33:47,680 --> 00:33:51,200 Speaker 1: an anglem scoring the touchdown when the second half he 704 00:33:51,280 --> 00:33:55,320 Speaker 1: killed at least two drives. Yeah, I cringe every time 705 00:33:55,320 --> 00:34:00,760 Speaker 1: I hear he's a mismatched nightmare. He's really a nightmare. Well, listen, 706 00:34:01,000 --> 00:34:03,560 Speaker 1: he made a nice play for the touchdown catch. That 707 00:34:03,600 --> 00:34:06,080 Speaker 1: was a really nice catch. No, no, I'm not done. 708 00:34:06,200 --> 00:34:09,400 Speaker 1: I'm not gonna let him off. You know, I'm not 709 00:34:09,440 --> 00:34:12,520 Speaker 1: still gonna stop there. I mean, listen to the play, 710 00:34:13,000 --> 00:34:14,880 Speaker 1: the draw play. I don't know what happened. I mean, 711 00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:17,640 Speaker 1: there is sun there and un mountain making excuses. I'm 712 00:34:17,680 --> 00:34:19,640 Speaker 1: just telling you, I played in that stadium many times. 713 00:34:19,920 --> 00:34:22,319 Speaker 1: There is sun in that stadium. So I love a 714 00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:25,440 Speaker 1: clarification on why he jumped for the ball because it 715 00:34:25,520 --> 00:34:28,279 Speaker 1: just didn't look natural for him trying to catch that path. 716 00:34:28,800 --> 00:34:30,520 Speaker 1: And by the way, that pass did take a lot 717 00:34:30,520 --> 00:34:33,319 Speaker 1: of the momentum out of the football game, which and 718 00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:35,920 Speaker 1: so I'm with you, you know, it's just a little 719 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,880 Speaker 1: jackling and highe. I mean, he has great plays, but 720 00:34:38,880 --> 00:34:41,680 Speaker 1: then sometimes you just scratch your head and you know, 721 00:34:41,800 --> 00:34:44,120 Speaker 1: the one that that got away from him, that could 722 00:34:44,120 --> 00:34:45,759 Speaker 1: have been another you know, could have been one of 723 00:34:45,800 --> 00:34:48,120 Speaker 1: the turnovers that that would have happened in the game, 724 00:34:48,600 --> 00:34:51,840 Speaker 1: was another tip passed by him that turns into an interception. 725 00:34:51,880 --> 00:34:54,000 Speaker 1: It wasn't an interception, it was close to one. But 726 00:34:54,280 --> 00:34:56,520 Speaker 1: I agree with you, and I think it's it's you know, 727 00:34:56,560 --> 00:34:58,720 Speaker 1: he's he's kind of a guy that did you scratch 728 00:34:58,800 --> 00:35:00,799 Speaker 1: your head out. You sc as your head every game 729 00:35:00,920 --> 00:35:03,440 Speaker 1: about him, you really do. He must he must have 730 00:35:03,480 --> 00:35:06,600 Speaker 1: a wonderful personality. Oh he's a great guy, trust me, 731 00:35:06,640 --> 00:35:09,640 Speaker 1: he's a yeah. Yeah, he's a good dude. But he's 732 00:35:09,640 --> 00:35:12,600 Speaker 1: a coach killer. I mean, every time they get close, 733 00:35:14,120 --> 00:35:18,759 Speaker 1: he does something that a well, it's a matter of 734 00:35:18,880 --> 00:35:20,839 Speaker 1: him cleaning up just some of the mental mistakes. I mean, 735 00:35:20,840 --> 00:35:22,600 Speaker 1: that's the bottom line. But you know, you are still 736 00:35:22,640 --> 00:35:24,359 Speaker 1: talking about a first round pick, Bob, And you don't 737 00:35:24,400 --> 00:35:26,799 Speaker 1: just necessarily part ways with first round picks in the 738 00:35:26,800 --> 00:35:28,719 Speaker 1: blink of an eye just because you're frustrated, you know, 739 00:35:28,760 --> 00:35:30,680 Speaker 1: over a few plays here there. And appreciate the phone 740 00:35:30,680 --> 00:35:32,920 Speaker 1: call and the other tae thing too, Lance when and 741 00:35:32,960 --> 00:35:34,719 Speaker 1: that's a great point you bring up. I mean, we 742 00:35:34,840 --> 00:35:37,279 Speaker 1: let's talk about last week and the trade deadline. Look 743 00:35:37,320 --> 00:35:39,600 Speaker 1: at all the talk that has been gone around Twitter 744 00:35:39,680 --> 00:35:42,520 Speaker 1: and on the internet about you know, teams inquiring about 745 00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:44,920 Speaker 1: some of the Giants players. I promise you some of 746 00:35:44,920 --> 00:35:47,560 Speaker 1: those Giants players was one Evan Ingram. It had to be. 747 00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:50,200 Speaker 1: But the Giants figured, hey, you know what, there, he's 748 00:35:50,200 --> 00:35:53,120 Speaker 1: more valuable to this team than somebody else's draft pick. 749 00:35:53,440 --> 00:35:55,920 Speaker 1: So they kept him and they develope. They believe they 750 00:35:55,920 --> 00:35:57,560 Speaker 1: can develop this kid and still make him a good 751 00:35:57,600 --> 00:36:00,120 Speaker 1: football player. Well, he's also on a rookie contract, to 752 00:36:00,160 --> 00:36:02,560 Speaker 1: your point, Jeff. Two and in the salary cap error, 753 00:36:02,760 --> 00:36:04,080 Speaker 1: you know, you don't just all of a sudden part 754 00:36:04,080 --> 00:36:06,200 Speaker 1: ways with guys who you have under your control. Plus 755 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,920 Speaker 1: the fifth year option which the Giants picked up, and 756 00:36:09,000 --> 00:36:11,239 Speaker 1: in the days of roster management, you know you have 757 00:36:11,320 --> 00:36:13,359 Speaker 1: to be smart and wise with respect to that. But 758 00:36:13,520 --> 00:36:15,799 Speaker 1: you know, as you noted, there's certainly things he needs 759 00:36:15,800 --> 00:36:17,239 Speaker 1: to clean up. I mean, I'll go back to that 760 00:36:17,280 --> 00:36:20,759 Speaker 1: play you were referencing, Jeff. You're talking about an opportunity. 761 00:36:20,800 --> 00:36:23,440 Speaker 1: It's first and ten at the Washington forty five, so 762 00:36:23,480 --> 00:36:25,840 Speaker 1: you're knocking on the door of midfield, and I believe 763 00:36:25,840 --> 00:36:27,840 Speaker 1: he would have made the catch right around the twenty seven. 764 00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:30,920 Speaker 1: And that's great field positioning, and you're looking at at 765 00:36:30,960 --> 00:36:33,200 Speaker 1: least hey tacking on a field goal perhaps, and that's 766 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:35,719 Speaker 1: a drop. And then a few negative plays follows, so 767 00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:37,640 Speaker 1: there's no doubt about it. It was a turning point. 768 00:36:38,000 --> 00:36:40,680 Speaker 1: But at the same time, there's a number of things 769 00:36:40,760 --> 00:36:42,719 Speaker 1: all around that the Giants, you can argue, still need 770 00:36:42,760 --> 00:36:45,000 Speaker 1: to clean up, not just necessarily having Ingram on an 771 00:36:45,000 --> 00:36:47,400 Speaker 1: island all by himself. One of the one of the 772 00:36:47,400 --> 00:36:50,880 Speaker 1: things that that I really enjoyed about Daniel Jones today 773 00:36:50,960 --> 00:36:53,120 Speaker 1: not turning the football over. It was probably the biggest one. 774 00:36:53,160 --> 00:36:55,600 Speaker 1: But the other one was in a similar situation where 775 00:36:55,800 --> 00:36:58,360 Speaker 1: it was a third and long um and Daniel Jones, 776 00:36:58,480 --> 00:37:00,600 Speaker 1: rather than you know, trying to take a shot down 777 00:37:00,600 --> 00:37:02,680 Speaker 1: the field to make a first down, he made a 778 00:37:02,680 --> 00:37:05,719 Speaker 1: completion that got the Giants into field goal range. And 779 00:37:05,719 --> 00:37:07,480 Speaker 1: I believe it was the forty eight yard field goal 780 00:37:07,960 --> 00:37:10,960 Speaker 1: that Graham Gono Head hit. Um, I'm not. I don't 781 00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:12,239 Speaker 1: have my notes in front of me that for to 782 00:37:12,280 --> 00:37:14,080 Speaker 1: go back on those, but the fact is that he 783 00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:16,680 Speaker 1: did a nice job of getting the ball down the 784 00:37:16,719 --> 00:37:19,239 Speaker 1: field in order to keep the team still in their 785 00:37:19,239 --> 00:37:22,520 Speaker 1: field goal field goal range without panicking on a third 786 00:37:22,520 --> 00:37:25,000 Speaker 1: and long, and that that's just that's progress to me. 787 00:37:25,320 --> 00:37:27,920 Speaker 1: That's really good progress by Daniel Jones in my opinion. 788 00:37:28,160 --> 00:37:31,160 Speaker 1: So the Giants plus five internover differential it helps them 789 00:37:31,160 --> 00:37:34,520 Speaker 1: beat Washington to twenty. We're gonna be hearing from Daniel 790 00:37:34,600 --> 00:37:38,560 Speaker 1: Jones shortly. Right now, let's pause ten seconds for station identification. 791 00:37:38,840 --> 00:37:42,879 Speaker 1: Here on the w f AN Giants radio network, Don 792 00:37:42,920 --> 00:37:45,320 Speaker 1: Brady and Drew Brees go head to head on Sunday 793 00:37:45,400 --> 00:37:47,480 Speaker 1: Night Football.

I know this 811 00:38:35,200 --> 00:38:38,480 Speaker 1: is a strange place to start, but you got sacked 812 00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,560 Speaker 1: on a lot of your last snap there and you 813 00:38:40,719 --> 00:38:43,680 Speaker 1: held onto the ball, which you know a stack is 814 00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,040 Speaker 1: a negative play, but it's obviously a positive play that 815 00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:48,399 Speaker 1: you held on the ball there on a blindside. Zack, 816 00:38:48,800 --> 00:38:51,359 Speaker 1: just talk a little bit about sent in the ball 817 00:38:51,400 --> 00:38:56,839 Speaker 1: security in that spot. Uh yeah, you know, I think 818 00:38:56,880 --> 00:38:59,560 Speaker 1: that that's been a focus of of mine and and 819 00:39:00,000 --> 00:39:03,279 Speaker 1: obviously know the importance of uh you know, holding on 820 00:39:03,320 --> 00:39:05,600 Speaker 1: the ball. And uh, you know, defense did a great 821 00:39:05,680 --> 00:39:08,680 Speaker 1: job today coming up with with five turnovers and and 822 00:39:08,800 --> 00:39:11,440 Speaker 1: uh you know, offense we're able to protect it today 823 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:14,359 Speaker 1: and that was you know, a big, big advantage for us. 824 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:17,319 Speaker 1: So uh you know, those are big plays in the game, 825 00:39:17,400 --> 00:39:19,680 Speaker 1: and and uh you know, I've gotta gotta do a 826 00:39:19,719 --> 00:39:21,879 Speaker 1: good job holding on the ball. We talk a lot 827 00:39:21,880 --> 00:39:24,400 Speaker 1: about when you guys play Dallas and Philly about losing 828 00:39:24,440 --> 00:39:26,840 Speaker 1: streaks and trying to like do they have your number? 829 00:39:27,239 --> 00:39:28,960 Speaker 1: The flip side of that is your four and oh 830 00:39:29,040 --> 00:39:31,600 Speaker 1: against Washington? Is there anything to that? Then you have 831 00:39:31,680 --> 00:39:34,239 Speaker 1: one win against Tampa and then four against Washington. Why 832 00:39:34,280 --> 00:39:36,360 Speaker 1: do you play so well and get so much confidence 833 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:40,360 Speaker 1: against them? I don't know, you know, I don't know 834 00:39:40,400 --> 00:39:42,880 Speaker 1: if it's uh specific to one team or you know, 835 00:39:42,920 --> 00:39:45,919 Speaker 1: I think, uh, you know, each game is separate from 836 00:39:46,040 --> 00:39:48,680 Speaker 1: from the other, and and um, you know, it's just 837 00:39:48,719 --> 00:39:52,240 Speaker 1: happened that we've come coming ready to play against Washington 838 00:39:52,280 --> 00:39:55,000 Speaker 1: these last four times, and and uh, you know I've 839 00:39:55,000 --> 00:39:57,600 Speaker 1: been able to to uh you know, get wins. So 840 00:39:58,120 --> 00:39:59,920 Speaker 1: uh we'll look to build off of it, you know, 841 00:40:00,000 --> 00:40:04,280 Speaker 1: next week going into going into Philly. Past words, Hey Daniel, 842 00:40:04,480 --> 00:40:07,240 Speaker 1: a couple of things. Can you just describe that blind 843 00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:09,239 Speaker 1: site hit that you took and were able to hold 844 00:40:09,280 --> 00:40:12,960 Speaker 1: onto the ball? And um number two, Um, the offense 845 00:40:13,000 --> 00:40:15,360 Speaker 1: really bogged down in the second half. You know, you 846 00:40:15,360 --> 00:40:18,040 Speaker 1: guys couldn't put really many points on the board as 847 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:20,400 Speaker 1: you're going down the stretch there and the defense is 848 00:40:20,440 --> 00:40:23,080 Speaker 1: giving up some yards at some points. Did it ever 849 00:40:23,160 --> 00:40:24,759 Speaker 1: allow you to think, oh, no, you know this is 850 00:40:24,760 --> 00:40:30,400 Speaker 1: gonna happen again to this team. Uh, you know, I think, um, 851 00:40:30,440 --> 00:40:32,240 Speaker 1: you know, when you're in the game, You're you're always, 852 00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,319 Speaker 1: um you know, you're always you know, planning to score points. 853 00:40:36,360 --> 00:40:39,120 Speaker 1: You're always planning to keep the ball moving forward. And 854 00:40:39,120 --> 00:40:42,399 Speaker 1: and uh, you know, we didn't execute well enough there 855 00:40:42,440 --> 00:40:44,560 Speaker 1: in that second half and and uh you know, like 856 00:40:44,560 --> 00:40:47,520 Speaker 1: you said, didn't score um you know, didn't finish drives, 857 00:40:47,520 --> 00:40:50,400 Speaker 1: and um, you know what, we'll certainly look at that. 858 00:40:50,440 --> 00:40:53,440 Speaker 1: We'll watch the tape study from it, and um, you know, 859 00:40:53,520 --> 00:40:55,520 Speaker 1: see what we could have done better in those situations. 860 00:40:55,560 --> 00:40:57,960 Speaker 1: But the defense came up big there down the stretch. 861 00:40:58,000 --> 00:40:59,919 Speaker 1: We're able to you know, get a turnover there and 862 00:41:00,000 --> 00:41:03,399 Speaker 1: and um you know that was big force. Um as 863 00:41:03,400 --> 00:41:06,680 Speaker 1: far as that that last play, yeah, just uh safety 864 00:41:06,719 --> 00:41:09,359 Speaker 1: came off the edge and and uh you know hit 865 00:41:09,400 --> 00:41:12,520 Speaker 1: me in the back and and um, you know, I 866 00:41:12,560 --> 00:41:15,960 Speaker 1: think it's uh you know, we'll look at it and 867 00:41:15,960 --> 00:41:18,520 Speaker 1: and and learn from it. And uh you know, just 868 00:41:18,560 --> 00:41:20,840 Speaker 1: gotta you know, hold on the ball and that that 869 00:41:20,960 --> 00:41:23,920 Speaker 1: keeps us uh in a position. He sets our defense 870 00:41:24,040 --> 00:41:27,280 Speaker 1: up with a long field and I'll continue to focus 871 00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:29,560 Speaker 1: on that. And you think of it in that situation 872 00:41:29,600 --> 00:41:31,239 Speaker 1: when you're getting hit. I mean, you don't even see 873 00:41:31,239 --> 00:41:33,399 Speaker 1: the guy that I got to hold onto the ball. 874 00:41:33,480 --> 00:41:35,600 Speaker 1: It was an instinct, you know what was it just 875 00:41:35,680 --> 00:41:40,439 Speaker 1: muscle memory or um? Did it just not come out? Uh? Yeah, 876 00:41:40,560 --> 00:41:42,839 Speaker 1: you know, I'm I'm always always trying to hold onto 877 00:41:42,840 --> 00:41:47,319 Speaker 1: the ball and and uh do my best to secure it. So, um, 878 00:41:47,360 --> 00:41:49,759 Speaker 1: you know, I guess uh right there, I was able 879 00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:53,360 Speaker 1: to do it. Let's take three more Patty tom Otis 880 00:41:53,400 --> 00:41:58,840 Speaker 1: Patty training Giants Country. Hey Daniel, how are you doing good? Patty? 881 00:41:58,840 --> 00:42:01,400 Speaker 1: How you doing? I'm doing things? Daniel? I know you 882 00:42:01,480 --> 00:42:03,200 Speaker 1: probably are gonna want to look at the film, but 883 00:42:03,280 --> 00:42:05,640 Speaker 1: can you just give some initial thoughts on the play 884 00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:08,879 Speaker 1: of the offensive line, especially, you know, the rotation that 885 00:42:08,960 --> 00:42:11,719 Speaker 1: the coach has going on, and just not just their 886 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:14,040 Speaker 1: past protection, but also what they were able to do 887 00:42:14,080 --> 00:42:16,200 Speaker 1: with the run game. Considering this, I think was the 888 00:42:16,239 --> 00:42:18,480 Speaker 1: fourth week in a row that you guys ran for 889 00:42:18,520 --> 00:42:21,880 Speaker 1: over a hundred yards as a group. Yeah, you know 890 00:42:21,880 --> 00:42:24,879 Speaker 1: they've they've done a great job. You know, they've done 891 00:42:24,880 --> 00:42:27,279 Speaker 1: a great job these last few weeks. And uh, you know, 892 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:30,680 Speaker 1: coach Colombo hasn't going in the rotation like you mentioned, uh, 893 00:42:30,800 --> 00:42:32,960 Speaker 1: rotating those guys in and out and and and keeping 894 00:42:33,000 --> 00:42:36,040 Speaker 1: them fresh. I think, um, you know, you said it. 895 00:42:36,040 --> 00:42:39,000 Speaker 1: We ran the ball, Uh ran the ball effectually all 896 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,160 Speaker 1: day and I think that was a big uh you know, 897 00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:43,600 Speaker 1: a big advantage for us. Uh used in tempo being 898 00:42:43,640 --> 00:42:45,680 Speaker 1: on the ball and then able to you know, keep 899 00:42:45,719 --> 00:42:48,840 Speaker 1: the pressure on him and run the ball. And um, 900 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:51,040 Speaker 1: you know, those guys did a great job up front 901 00:42:51,040 --> 00:42:53,560 Speaker 1: against a really good defensive front, and you know, a 902 00:42:53,600 --> 00:42:56,719 Speaker 1: defensive front that has the ability to uh, you know, 903 00:42:56,719 --> 00:42:59,040 Speaker 1: really impact the game and change the game. And those 904 00:42:59,080 --> 00:43:02,200 Speaker 1: guys did a eight job all day, uh, you know, 905 00:43:02,520 --> 00:43:04,799 Speaker 1: enforcing our will running the ball and then and then 906 00:43:04,840 --> 00:43:07,600 Speaker 1: protecting the past game too. So those guys deserve a 907 00:43:07,640 --> 00:43:12,200 Speaker 1: lot of credit. Thanks Daniel. Daniel, when did you know 908 00:43:12,239 --> 00:43:14,400 Speaker 1: that Golden wasn't gonna make the trip with you guys? 909 00:43:14,480 --> 00:43:17,440 Speaker 1: And then sort of following up on that, Uh, can 910 00:43:17,480 --> 00:43:22,040 Speaker 1: you just talk about the connection you have with mac Uh? Yeah, 911 00:43:22,120 --> 00:43:24,480 Speaker 1: you know, I think, uh, you know, we learned that 912 00:43:24,760 --> 00:43:28,080 Speaker 1: uh this week and and uh, you know, just just 913 00:43:28,120 --> 00:43:31,799 Speaker 1: prepared to play and and and uh you know, go 914 00:43:31,960 --> 00:43:35,000 Speaker 1: through the plan and get ready to play. Um, you know, 915 00:43:35,080 --> 00:43:37,319 Speaker 1: Austin did did a great job stepping up and and 916 00:43:37,360 --> 00:43:39,439 Speaker 1: made a lot of plays for us. Uh. He's someone 917 00:43:39,480 --> 00:43:41,360 Speaker 1: who who can trust to be in the right spot. 918 00:43:41,440 --> 00:43:44,200 Speaker 1: Who's uh, you know, consistent and brings it every day 919 00:43:44,200 --> 00:43:46,319 Speaker 1: at practice. And you know, I certainly have a lot 920 00:43:46,360 --> 00:43:48,439 Speaker 1: of a lot of trust in him. And like I said, 921 00:43:48,480 --> 00:43:49,840 Speaker 1: he stepped up and made a lot of big plays 922 00:43:49,960 --> 00:43:52,439 Speaker 1: that And do you ever do have you ever heard 923 00:43:52,440 --> 00:43:55,920 Speaker 1: back from Eli after yelling his name so often at 924 00:43:55,920 --> 00:43:57,920 Speaker 1: the at the lime of screamage there and during games? 925 00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:01,920 Speaker 1: Um know, I haven't. I hadn't. He hadn't said much 926 00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:04,879 Speaker 1: about that yet, but uh, maybe I'll hear phone now. 927 00:44:05,480 --> 00:44:10,440 Speaker 1: Thank you last one here, otis alright. Congratulations on the win, Daniel. 928 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:12,960 Speaker 1: I'm sure that the offense is not happy that you 929 00:44:12,960 --> 00:44:15,440 Speaker 1: weren't able to salt away the game, but it's a 930 00:44:15,480 --> 00:44:18,640 Speaker 1: team game. The defense stepped up. What was the vibe 931 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:21,359 Speaker 1: on the sideline as far as the offense went though, 932 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:24,080 Speaker 1: Is this a you know, a turning point maybe that 933 00:44:24,160 --> 00:44:26,480 Speaker 1: you guys were able to get a win, that you 934 00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:30,200 Speaker 1: should have one coming down the stretch. Uh? Yeah, I 935 00:44:30,200 --> 00:44:32,040 Speaker 1: think there's lots of things to to take from this 936 00:44:32,120 --> 00:44:35,120 Speaker 1: game and build on. I think, um, you know, in 937 00:44:35,160 --> 00:44:38,240 Speaker 1: the second half, we uh you know, we had some drives. 938 00:44:38,320 --> 00:44:39,560 Speaker 1: You know, we moved the ball a little bit and 939 00:44:39,560 --> 00:44:41,400 Speaker 1: then kind of stalled out in a couple of situations 940 00:44:41,440 --> 00:44:43,960 Speaker 1: that uh that hurt us and prevented us from from 941 00:44:43,960 --> 00:44:46,640 Speaker 1: getting points. So you know, we'll we'll look at that, 942 00:44:46,680 --> 00:44:48,600 Speaker 1: we'll learn from it and and see, you know, see 943 00:44:48,600 --> 00:44:52,239 Speaker 1: what we gotta do in those situations better. But um, 944 00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:53,880 Speaker 1: you know, I think that there are things to to 945 00:44:53,920 --> 00:44:56,200 Speaker 1: build on from this game. I think, you know, we'll 946 00:44:56,239 --> 00:44:58,520 Speaker 1: continue to to improve and you know that's the goal 947 00:44:58,560 --> 00:45:01,239 Speaker 1: every week. So uh, you know, back to work, back 948 00:45:01,239 --> 00:45:04,120 Speaker 1: to work tomorrow and look to uh take another step 949 00:45:04,200 --> 00:45:07,400 Speaker 1: this week against Philly. So I was Giants quarterback Daniel 950 00:45:07,480 --> 00:45:10,719 Speaker 1: Jones addressing the media as the Giants beat Washington three 951 00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:13,160 Speaker 1: to twenty for their second win of the season, and 952 00:45:13,360 --> 00:45:16,520 Speaker 1: clearly Jeffy was asked a lot about the ball security issue, 953 00:45:16,600 --> 00:45:18,759 Speaker 1: which has unfortunately come back to bite him more often 954 00:45:18,760 --> 00:45:21,000 Speaker 1: than not. But he took care of the football today 955 00:45:21,120 --> 00:45:24,080 Speaker 1: and even in the second half when the Giants only 956 00:45:24,120 --> 00:45:26,640 Speaker 1: scored three points. You know, and this is once again 957 00:45:26,719 --> 00:45:28,960 Speaker 1: something that Jason Garrett talked about during the week, we 958 00:45:29,000 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 1: addressed on the pregame show. You take a sack, you 959 00:45:32,200 --> 00:45:35,040 Speaker 1: have a negative play, go down and live to see 960 00:45:35,040 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 1: another possession live to see another drive. Have special teams 961 00:45:38,160 --> 00:45:40,760 Speaker 1: flipped the field as opposed to trying to force something, 962 00:45:40,760 --> 00:45:42,719 Speaker 1: and he did exactly that in the second half. Yeah, 963 00:45:42,760 --> 00:45:46,480 Speaker 1: and also, uh, not to mention when the pocket broke down. 964 00:45:46,560 --> 00:45:48,160 Speaker 1: You know, he stepped up in the pocket and he 965 00:45:48,160 --> 00:45:49,880 Speaker 1: tried to run a little bit just you know, he 966 00:45:49,960 --> 00:45:52,239 Speaker 1: wanted to run a little bit more than he did. 967 00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:55,000 Speaker 1: But that's part of the process. And we talked about 968 00:45:55,880 --> 00:45:58,919 Speaker 1: quarterbacks making good decisions in the pocket. One of those 969 00:45:58,960 --> 00:46:01,400 Speaker 1: good decisions is to know when you're not going to 970 00:46:01,560 --> 00:46:06,080 Speaker 1: force the football number one, Number two, understand what the 971 00:46:06,160 --> 00:46:08,759 Speaker 1: situation is down in distance, and then the third one 972 00:46:08,840 --> 00:46:11,080 Speaker 1: is tuck it and run. He has the ability to 973 00:46:11,080 --> 00:46:14,120 Speaker 1: make place through his feet. But the second, the third 974 00:46:14,160 --> 00:46:16,800 Speaker 1: one is when you're running, just just get positive yards. 975 00:46:16,920 --> 00:46:18,880 Speaker 1: You had mentioned earlier with Bob and Carl that the 976 00:46:18,920 --> 00:46:22,000 Speaker 1: Giants only had one negative play today. That is huge 977 00:46:22,040 --> 00:46:25,160 Speaker 1: for this team. You know, when you're in those negative plays, 978 00:46:25,239 --> 00:46:27,279 Speaker 1: four or five, six of them in a game, your 979 00:46:27,360 --> 00:46:30,279 Speaker 1: second and third and longs does become very difficult place 980 00:46:30,360 --> 00:46:33,880 Speaker 1: to execute and designed. So when you're in positive second 981 00:46:33,880 --> 00:46:36,520 Speaker 1: and third downs, you've got a better chance. Yeah, and 982 00:46:36,560 --> 00:46:38,759 Speaker 1: that's what really jumped out to me. It wasn't just 983 00:46:38,880 --> 00:46:42,240 Speaker 1: necessarily the one hundred yards rushing which they were over 984 00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:45,879 Speaker 1: at the half, but as you mentioned, only having one 985 00:46:45,960 --> 00:46:48,319 Speaker 1: negative two yard run and that was in everything else 986 00:46:48,440 --> 00:46:50,719 Speaker 1: led the positive yards. The only time the Giants, you 987 00:46:50,719 --> 00:46:53,400 Speaker 1: can argue, back themselves in a hole was as a 988 00:46:53,400 --> 00:46:57,000 Speaker 1: result of penalties, whether it be holding or offensive passive deference. 989 00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:59,840 Speaker 1: But it was not because of negative rushing yards. And 990 00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:03,360 Speaker 1: penalties are in an essence of negative play. But you know, 991 00:47:03,480 --> 00:47:06,440 Speaker 1: as far as um a physical negative play, no, But 992 00:47:06,800 --> 00:47:09,239 Speaker 1: you know, and I think Alfred Morris and and uh 993 00:47:09,280 --> 00:47:12,560 Speaker 1: Wayne Goldman, they bring that aggressive running style to the 994 00:47:12,560 --> 00:47:14,719 Speaker 1: line of scrimmage. Their guys will get your heart yards 995 00:47:14,760 --> 00:47:18,040 Speaker 1: and there their North South runners.
