So um, 25 00:01:04,280 --> 00:01:05,600 Speaker 1: you know, and I was reading when we're doing a 26 00:01:05,640 --> 00:01:08,040 Speaker 1: little research on these coaches that mark Ingraman said he's 27 00:01:08,080 --> 00:01:10,880 Speaker 1: the best coach he's ever had. He's gonna prepare Sae 28 00:01:10,920 --> 00:01:13,200 Speaker 1: Quant to be the type of running back that I 29 00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: think a lot of the fans want to see him be. 30 00:01:15,319 --> 00:01:19,080 Speaker 1: He's very good with identifying with the running backs their eyes, 31 00:01:19,120 --> 00:01:21,560 Speaker 1: how to use their eyes with protections and holes and 32 00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:23,319 Speaker 1: things like that. So, you know, a man that's been 33 00:01:23,360 --> 00:01:25,440 Speaker 1: around college football all his life has not ever been 34 00:01:25,480 --> 00:01:28,120 Speaker 1: around the NFL's his first head coaching or his first 35 00:01:28,160 --> 00:01:30,840 Speaker 1: coaching job in the NFL. And then you have Jerry Chaplinsky. 36 00:01:30,959 --> 00:01:35,120 Speaker 1: He's on the quarterbacks coach side, and he's from the 37 00:01:35,120 --> 00:01:37,440 Speaker 1: Patriots coaching tree. A lot of experience in the NFL. 38 00:01:37,480 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 1: He was an offensive assistant which is basically a quality 39 00:01:39,959 --> 00:01:42,840 Speaker 1: control coach and an assistant quarterback coach in New England. 40 00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:45,160 Speaker 1: And then he had that same position last year in Miami, 41 00:01:45,319 --> 00:01:46,840 Speaker 1: and you look at the guys he's been able to 42 00:01:46,840 --> 00:01:49,480 Speaker 1: work with, Oh, you know number twelve up in New England. 43 00:01:49,720 --> 00:01:51,480 Speaker 1: But don't forget he was not up in New England 44 00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:53,080 Speaker 1: last year. It was in Miami, so he got to 45 00:01:53,120 --> 00:01:55,840 Speaker 1: work with fitz Magic. We got to talk to Jerry 46 00:01:55,840 --> 00:01:57,639 Speaker 1: a little bit about that, and he says, the guys 47 00:01:57,680 --> 00:01:59,600 Speaker 1: just so much fun to work with. He's so smart. 48 00:02:00,080 --> 00:02:02,120 Speaker 1: He's got a lot of a lot of experience coming 49 00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:04,840 Speaker 1: from those two things. And don't mention Garoppolo, who he 50 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:07,360 Speaker 1: actually helped up in New England too, no question about it. 51 00:02:07,360 --> 00:02:09,880 Speaker 1: Then let's go to the tight end position. Another guy 52 00:02:10,040 --> 00:02:13,840 Speaker 1: with NFL head coaching experience. Just last year, Freddie Kitchens. 53 00:02:13,840 --> 00:02:15,200 Speaker 1: He was a tight ends coach and he will be 54 00:02:15,240 --> 00:02:17,160 Speaker 1: the Giants tight ends coach. He was a tight end 55 00:02:17,160 --> 00:02:20,320 Speaker 1: coach in Arizona from O seven oh twelve. Um also 56 00:02:20,360 --> 00:02:23,600 Speaker 1: coach running backs, quarterbacks, offensive coordinator. I mentioned his head 57 00:02:23,600 --> 00:02:27,000 Speaker 1: coaching experience. So another guy that has ties to coach 58 00:02:27,160 --> 00:02:30,800 Speaker 1: judge from back to his college days when he was 59 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:34,040 Speaker 1: a g A six I think it was in Mississippi. 60 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:36,919 Speaker 1: So another guy that comes in here that should be 61 00:02:36,960 --> 00:02:38,800 Speaker 1: able to help this offense along and you look at 62 00:02:38,800 --> 00:02:41,600 Speaker 1: Freddie Kitchens, he's a guy that's worked under Bruce arians 63 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,280 Speaker 1: so um very familiar with that type of offense and 64 00:02:45,320 --> 00:02:48,800 Speaker 1: also experience at the tight end position coaching that those 65 00:02:48,800 --> 00:02:51,280 Speaker 1: guys and speaking with him yesterday. I got to talk 66 00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,320 Speaker 1: to a lot of these coaches yesterday. He's so excited 67 00:02:53,320 --> 00:02:56,040 Speaker 1: about Evan Ingram, a guy that he told me John, 68 00:02:56,080 --> 00:02:58,120 Speaker 1: and you'll be happy to hear this. A better blocker 69 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:02,440 Speaker 1: than people think he is. He is, no question about it. Uh, 70 00:03:02,480 --> 00:03:05,160 Speaker 1: tight Tilbert somebody were familiar with coming back to coach 71 00:03:05,160 --> 00:03:07,480 Speaker 1: wide receivers. Yeah, And I think that when you go 72 00:03:07,600 --> 00:03:09,720 Speaker 1: and look at this staff and as a new coach, 73 00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:12,639 Speaker 1: you're gonna analyze who's here that you could keep. Obviously 74 00:03:12,680 --> 00:03:14,440 Speaker 1: he's one of the guys and you look at the 75 00:03:14,440 --> 00:03:17,400 Speaker 1: production they had out of that group last year, and 76 00:03:17,480 --> 00:03:19,839 Speaker 1: of course Darry Slaton was a guy that probably kept 77 00:03:19,880 --> 00:03:21,919 Speaker 1: him his job. And I think he's just a production 78 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:23,840 Speaker 1: that he got out of him and how he taught 79 00:03:23,880 --> 00:03:25,959 Speaker 1: him to be an NFL football player, you know, not 80 00:03:26,040 --> 00:03:27,760 Speaker 1: a high draft pick. That was something that was really 81 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:30,359 Speaker 1: good that coach Judge wanted to see in that position. 82 00:03:30,360 --> 00:03:33,160 Speaker 1: Coach and now he's back then a younger coach. Mark 83 00:03:33,240 --> 00:03:36,120 Speaker 1: Colombo Giant fans poably remember him. He was an offensive 84 00:03:36,120 --> 00:03:39,160 Speaker 1: lineman for the Dallas Cowboys for a long time, play 85 00:03:39,200 --> 00:03:41,800 Speaker 1: in the NFL for a while two thousand and two 86 00:03:41,840 --> 00:03:44,120 Speaker 1: to two thousand and eleven, was an offensive tackle. He 87 00:03:44,200 --> 00:03:46,520 Speaker 1: was in the assistant offensive line coach for the Cowboys, 88 00:03:46,880 --> 00:03:49,600 Speaker 1: was their offensive line coach, the full job for the 89 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:51,480 Speaker 1: last year and a half. He took over mid season 90 00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,839 Speaker 1: in Big Dude looks like an offensive lineman, but he's 91 00:03:57,880 --> 00:04:00,760 Speaker 1: somebody that's that hands on type of teacher that Joe 92 00:04:00,800 --> 00:04:03,160 Speaker 1: Judge is looking for. And no question you look at 93 00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:05,320 Speaker 1: he's kind of been the architect of that running game 94 00:04:05,400 --> 00:04:07,280 Speaker 1: up in Dallas for the last few years at least 95 00:04:07,280 --> 00:04:09,360 Speaker 1: been part of it with Ezekiel Elliott and the way 96 00:04:09,360 --> 00:04:11,560 Speaker 1: that they run the football. If he brings that type 97 00:04:11,560 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 1: of attitude and that type of schemes to this running 98 00:04:14,000 --> 00:04:15,840 Speaker 1: game with se Kwan, of course you got to get 99 00:04:15,840 --> 00:04:18,160 Speaker 1: the offensive line to do it. But like you said, John, 100 00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:21,680 Speaker 1: he is a giant man. Uh six ft nine, I 101 00:04:21,720 --> 00:04:23,960 Speaker 1: believe he is. You know, we thought Solder was tall. 102 00:04:24,040 --> 00:04:26,560 Speaker 1: He's just as tall as he is. But um, Jason 103 00:04:26,839 --> 00:04:29,200 Speaker 1: said about him that this is a guy that you 104 00:04:29,279 --> 00:04:32,000 Speaker 1: know his presence not only because he's big, he's but 105 00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:34,640 Speaker 1: he's in full of energy. Offensive line coach needs to 106 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:36,680 Speaker 1: be that way. And of course he's someone that obviously 107 00:04:36,720 --> 00:04:39,159 Speaker 1: worked under Jason Garrett in Dallas, which is where that 108 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:42,160 Speaker 1: connection came from. Ben Wilkerson will returnized his assistant offensive 109 00:04:42,200 --> 00:04:45,960 Speaker 1: line coach. And then another link to Jason Garrett. Somebody 110 00:04:46,000 --> 00:04:49,120 Speaker 1: with a ton of experience. Derek Dooley, who was a 111 00:04:49,120 --> 00:04:51,400 Speaker 1: wide receiver coach for the Cowboys from two thousand and 112 00:04:51,440 --> 00:04:53,440 Speaker 1: thirteen to two thousand and seventeen. He was there were 113 00:04:53,480 --> 00:04:56,919 Speaker 1: Dez Bryant and those guys. Then the last two years 114 00:04:56,920 --> 00:04:59,920 Speaker 1: he was at Missouri as an offensive coordinator and quartered 115 00:05:00,000 --> 00:05:03,040 Speaker 1: a coach from nineteen and also the head coach at 116 00:05:03,040 --> 00:05:05,520 Speaker 1: the University of Tennessee the theme here, as we can 117 00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:07,520 Speaker 1: see John when we're talking about the staff that Joe 118 00:05:07,560 --> 00:05:10,840 Speaker 1: Judge put together, lots of experience, lots of guys that 119 00:05:10,880 --> 00:05:14,560 Speaker 1: he can lean on about opinions about things, so um 120 00:05:14,640 --> 00:05:17,039 Speaker 1: and you know from the wide receiver position up in 121 00:05:17,120 --> 00:05:20,280 Speaker 1: Dallas back when Dez Bryant was there, pretty good job, right, 122 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:22,080 Speaker 1: So he's gonna bring some of that experience to him, 123 00:05:22,080 --> 00:05:26,039 Speaker 1: but more importantly, it's familiar with Jason Garrett's offensive philosophies. 124 00:05:26,360 --> 00:05:29,000 Speaker 1: And here's a look at the entire Giants offensive staff. 125 00:05:29,000 --> 00:05:30,760 Speaker 1: You know there's two names there that we didn't mention. 126 00:05:31,200 --> 00:05:34,960 Speaker 1: Stephen Brown comes over to be the Giants offensive assistant. 127 00:05:34,960 --> 00:05:37,800 Speaker 1: He worked with Jason Garrett in Dallas, helped coordinate the 128 00:05:37,880 --> 00:05:40,719 Speaker 1: running game with running back coach Gary Brown, also serving 129 00:05:40,760 --> 00:05:43,919 Speaker 1: as a point person for Jason Garrett on research projects 130 00:05:43,920 --> 00:05:46,880 Speaker 1: and day to day operations. And also Bobby Blake returning 131 00:05:46,920 --> 00:05:49,440 Speaker 1: as the offensive quality control coach. He was here on 132 00:05:49,520 --> 00:05:52,000 Speaker 1: their head coach Pat Summer as well. Joe Judge is 133 00:05:52,040 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: announced his assistant coaches. He is Jeff Eagles. I'm John Schmilk. 134 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:57,760 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the defensive side of the ball. 135 00:05:57,800 --> 00:06:00,680 Speaker 1: We already knew that Patrick Graham, coming over from the Dolphins, 136 00:06:01,320 --> 00:06:05,120 Speaker 1: was the Giants defensive coordinator choice for this year, and 137 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:07,760 Speaker 1: now we know who's gonna serve underneath them on his staff. 138 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,440 Speaker 1: Let's start on the defensive line, Jeff, where a lot 139 00:06:10,480 --> 00:06:12,159 Speaker 1: of the action happens. The Giants with a lot of 140 00:06:12,160 --> 00:06:17,040 Speaker 1: talented defensive lineman bringson Sean Spencer, who's very highly thought of. 141 00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:18,680 Speaker 1: A lot of people I've seen call him one of 142 00:06:18,680 --> 00:06:21,679 Speaker 1: the better defensive line coaches in college football. He served 143 00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,440 Speaker 1: at Penn State in that position from two thousand and 144 00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:27,440 Speaker 1: fourteen until last year two thousand and nineteen. Also had 145 00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:31,400 Speaker 1: the associate head coach title down there the last two years. Well, 146 00:06:31,440 --> 00:06:34,280 Speaker 1: I mean, you're looking coach Spencer. He's obviously very familiar 147 00:06:34,320 --> 00:06:36,000 Speaker 1: with the three guys that are playing in the front 148 00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:37,760 Speaker 1: of for the Giants, right, I mean, so he's been 149 00:06:37,800 --> 00:06:40,400 Speaker 1: in college football a while, but I hear about him. 150 00:06:40,440 --> 00:06:42,680 Speaker 1: He's he's like full of energy. This guy is like 151 00:06:42,920 --> 00:06:45,359 Speaker 1: they call him a crazy man. So that's fine with me. 152 00:06:45,480 --> 00:06:47,520 Speaker 1: Get those three guys and coaching those defensive line to 153 00:06:47,520 --> 00:06:49,440 Speaker 1: be crazy man and get after the quarterback. I'm all 154 00:06:49,480 --> 00:06:51,800 Speaker 1: for it. So welcome him. And we've had some good 155 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,360 Speaker 1: pass rushing prospects come out of Penn State Carled Nassas 156 00:06:54,360 --> 00:06:56,400 Speaker 1: of the world, so he said, some good players come 157 00:06:56,400 --> 00:06:58,160 Speaker 1: out of that system, and Penn State obviously a very 158 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:02,520 Speaker 1: good program. Outside lineback or Brett Bulima, former head coach 159 00:07:03,000 --> 00:07:08,240 Speaker 1: for Wisconsin and Arkansas Patriots, defensive line coach last year 160 00:07:08,360 --> 00:07:11,440 Speaker 1: fifty years Old. Another guy with a ton of experience 161 00:07:11,600 --> 00:07:15,560 Speaker 1: Jeff that can really help this group along. And he's 162 00:07:15,600 --> 00:07:18,880 Speaker 1: the outside linebacker coach, which usually means if if you're 163 00:07:18,880 --> 00:07:20,400 Speaker 1: gonna play a three form we don't know what the 164 00:07:20,440 --> 00:07:23,040 Speaker 1: giant system is going to be at. That's coaching those 165 00:07:23,080 --> 00:07:26,200 Speaker 1: outside linebackers that are going to be your edge rushers. Well, again, 166 00:07:26,280 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 1: I think the keyword we're using in this conversation is experience, 167 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,440 Speaker 1: and and Joe Judge has put a staff together it 168 00:07:32,440 --> 00:07:35,480 Speaker 1: certainly checks that box. And especially with Brett, the guy 169 00:07:35,480 --> 00:07:37,880 Speaker 1: that has had a head coaching experience, I know that 170 00:07:37,960 --> 00:07:41,120 Speaker 1: he was thought of as maybe gonna be or a 171 00:07:41,160 --> 00:07:45,080 Speaker 1: candidate for the Rutgers job, you know, recently. So here's 172 00:07:45,080 --> 00:07:47,160 Speaker 1: a guy that brings so much experience, as we said, 173 00:07:47,200 --> 00:07:50,000 Speaker 1: but more importantly, you know, he has been around some 174 00:07:50,120 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 1: good people and he's been in a head coach that's 175 00:07:52,560 --> 00:07:54,520 Speaker 1: gonna be able to help Joe Judge along the way too. 176 00:07:54,680 --> 00:07:56,680 Speaker 1: And as a mix of NFL and college guys too, 177 00:07:56,760 --> 00:07:58,760 Speaker 1: as we'll see through the mixture, which is always good. 178 00:07:58,960 --> 00:08:01,240 Speaker 1: As the NFL look more and more similar to college, 179 00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:03,880 Speaker 1: you want to have guys that have experienced in both positions. 180 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 1: You look at that that Patriot defense, how they got 181 00:08:05,920 --> 00:08:08,200 Speaker 1: after the quarterback last year, they were very good. So 182 00:08:08,240 --> 00:08:10,800 Speaker 1: he brings a little of that to hear. Another college coach, 183 00:08:10,880 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 1: Kevin Sharer out of Georgia, was the outside linebacker coach. Um. 184 00:08:15,120 --> 00:08:18,920 Speaker 1: They're also a defensive coordinator and special teams coach for Tennessee. 185 00:08:19,560 --> 00:08:22,080 Speaker 1: His connection goes back to Alabama where he was there 186 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,760 Speaker 1: as a g A from two thousand and was in 187 00:08:25,800 --> 00:08:28,000 Speaker 1: player development there from two thousand and ten to two 188 00:08:28,000 --> 00:08:30,520 Speaker 1: thousand and twelve. Well, what I like about Kevin Shearer's 189 00:08:30,560 --> 00:08:32,959 Speaker 1: titles you just read off. He's been a defensive coordinator, 190 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:34,880 Speaker 1: he has been a special teams coach. So he's he's 191 00:08:35,280 --> 00:08:37,440 Speaker 1: he has it, uh an ability to work with a 192 00:08:37,760 --> 00:08:40,360 Speaker 1: many people. And you know, that inside linebacking position, he's 193 00:08:40,360 --> 00:08:43,160 Speaker 1: gonna have to work with coach BioMA because they're obviously 194 00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:46,200 Speaker 1: going to work the same outside and inside position. So 195 00:08:46,440 --> 00:08:48,760 Speaker 1: we'll see what kind of philosophy is they mixed together 196 00:08:49,120 --> 00:08:51,679 Speaker 1: and uh and you know, listen, we saw last year 197 00:08:51,800 --> 00:08:55,560 Speaker 1: with the with the linebackers trying to cover the receivers 198 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 1: and even tight ends, excuse me, in the running backs. 199 00:08:57,559 --> 00:08:59,800 Speaker 1: They got some work to do. No question about Remember 200 00:08:59,800 --> 00:09:02,640 Speaker 1: the inside linebackers run the defense. That's the guy that 201 00:09:02,679 --> 00:09:05,040 Speaker 1: has the microphone in the suset. So having a guy 202 00:09:05,040 --> 00:09:08,200 Speaker 1: with defensive coordinating experience of that position certainly can help. 203 00:09:08,480 --> 00:09:12,640 Speaker 1: Jerome Henderson the all important defensive backs coach position. Eight 204 00:09:12,679 --> 00:09:15,559 Speaker 1: year career in the NFL played for Bill Parcels. Was 205 00:09:15,600 --> 00:09:18,000 Speaker 1: a defensive back coach for the Cowboys from two thousand 206 00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:20,319 Speaker 1: and twelve to two thousand and fifteen. Since then, he's 207 00:09:20,320 --> 00:09:24,120 Speaker 1: been the defensive pass game coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons. 208 00:09:24,120 --> 00:09:26,520 Speaker 1: So another guy with a lot of experience almost as 209 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:29,679 Speaker 1: a quasi coordinator as the pass game coordinator for the Falcons, 210 00:09:29,960 --> 00:09:34,079 Speaker 1: and he'll coach a very young, giant defensive backs group 211 00:09:34,240 --> 00:09:36,559 Speaker 1: where coaching is going to be very important. And I 212 00:09:36,640 --> 00:09:38,679 Speaker 1: think I like the one I liked about this higher. 213 00:09:38,679 --> 00:09:40,240 Speaker 1: You know, you know, it's been kind of the buzzwords 214 00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:42,160 Speaker 1: in the NFL these days as far as hiring coaches, 215 00:09:42,200 --> 00:09:44,600 Speaker 1: is that there's been there's not only the offensive defensive 216 00:09:44,600 --> 00:09:46,560 Speaker 1: coordinator or a a special team. Now you're getting the passing 217 00:09:46,559 --> 00:09:49,559 Speaker 1: and the run game coordinators and offense and defense and exactly. 218 00:09:49,600 --> 00:09:51,720 Speaker 1: So I think it's just that they're throwing titles around 219 00:09:51,800 --> 00:09:54,160 Speaker 1: left and right. But I think what's nice about this 220 00:09:54,160 --> 00:09:56,120 Speaker 1: guy is that you know Jerome, he comes from, he 221 00:09:56,160 --> 00:09:58,480 Speaker 1: played football, He played in the National Football League for 222 00:09:58,520 --> 00:10:01,080 Speaker 1: a long time. Because he played the position, those young 223 00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,440 Speaker 1: guys can relate to him and they can have good 224 00:10:03,480 --> 00:10:06,160 Speaker 1: conversation back and forth, no question about it. And two 225 00:10:06,200 --> 00:10:08,360 Speaker 1: other coaches I want to mention before we say goodbye. 226 00:10:08,559 --> 00:10:12,320 Speaker 1: Anthony Blevins, who was one of two assistant special teams coaches, 227 00:10:12,360 --> 00:10:15,079 Speaker 1: will move over and be the assistant defensive backs coach, 228 00:10:15,400 --> 00:10:18,480 Speaker 1: a very important position. And then the defensive assistant will 229 00:10:18,520 --> 00:10:21,800 Speaker 1: be Jody Wright, who goes back to Alabama. He was 230 00:10:21,840 --> 00:10:24,880 Speaker 1: there as an offensive analyst and then as a director 231 00:10:24,920 --> 00:10:28,679 Speaker 1: of player personnel from eighteen also assistant head coach an 232 00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:32,640 Speaker 1: offensive line coach at the University of Alabama at Birmingham. 233 00:10:32,679 --> 00:10:35,440 Speaker 1: So another guy with a lot of experience to take 234 00:10:35,480 --> 00:10:38,640 Speaker 1: a defensive assistant job, a lot of experience in the 235 00:10:38,679 --> 00:10:41,960 Speaker 1: state of Alabama. He just mentioned there's you know, two 236 00:10:41,960 --> 00:10:45,200 Speaker 1: thousand ten all the way to two thousand and eighteen. UM. 237 00:10:45,200 --> 00:10:48,559 Speaker 1: Obviously he has some experience with these coaches. And where 238 00:10:48,600 --> 00:10:50,640 Speaker 1: the tree that you talked about, John, the web that 239 00:10:50,679 --> 00:10:52,920 Speaker 1: I talked about, you know when you when you look 240 00:10:52,960 --> 00:10:56,319 Speaker 1: at the staff that he put together offensively and defensively, 241 00:10:56,440 --> 00:11:00,440 Speaker 1: it is impressive because these guys, they all understand one thing, 242 00:11:00,800 --> 00:11:04,839 Speaker 1: how coach Belichick has worked, how coach Saban has worked. 243 00:11:04,840 --> 00:11:07,199 Speaker 1: And now they all gonna understand how a coach Judge 244 00:11:07,240 --> 00:11:09,440 Speaker 1: is gonna work. And they should all get along just fine. 245 00:11:09,600 --> 00:11:11,680 Speaker 1: Let's take a look at the full defensive staff. You 246 00:11:11,720 --> 00:11:14,320 Speaker 1: notice one name we did not mention there. Mike Trier 247 00:11:14,440 --> 00:11:17,320 Speaker 1: has been hired as the defensive quality control coach. He 248 00:11:17,440 --> 00:11:21,440 Speaker 1: coached safeties at Marshall in The New York Giants have 249 00:11:21,440 --> 00:11:25,800 Speaker 1: announced Joe Judges complete coaching staff. The offense is important, 250 00:11:25,800 --> 00:11:28,920 Speaker 1: to defense is important. But don't forget about special teams, 251 00:11:29,280 --> 00:11:31,840 Speaker 1: the third part of the game. We already knew Paul 252 00:11:31,920 --> 00:11:35,040 Speaker 1: that Thomas mcgahey was attorning as a special teams coordinator, 253 00:11:35,080 --> 00:11:37,680 Speaker 1: and now we know Tom quinnill returned as the assistant 254 00:11:37,720 --> 00:11:39,880 Speaker 1: special teams coach. Well, Tom quinn has been with the 255 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:44,000 Speaker 1: Giants organization since two thousand six and various special teams capacities. 256 00:11:44,400 --> 00:11:47,439 Speaker 1: Last year he was one a to Thomas mcgahey and 257 00:11:47,520 --> 00:11:50,560 Speaker 1: he continues to be so during the course of time. 258 00:11:50,559 --> 00:11:52,679 Speaker 1: When he when these guys have been here. The Giants 259 00:11:52,720 --> 00:11:55,960 Speaker 1: have had very good special teams units. John, You look 260 00:11:56,000 --> 00:11:59,040 Speaker 1: back at last year top ten in both kickoff return 261 00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:02,760 Speaker 1: and punt turn stats, and then on kickoff return and 262 00:12:02,840 --> 00:12:07,079 Speaker 1: part returned coverage stats, they were top five in the NFL. 263 00:12:07,480 --> 00:12:10,440 Speaker 1: So the Giants have certainly had quality there. And given 264 00:12:10,440 --> 00:12:12,400 Speaker 1: the Giants new head coach at Joe Judge is a 265 00:12:12,440 --> 00:12:16,240 Speaker 1: former special teams coordinator, Paul, you know, this part of 266 00:12:16,240 --> 00:12:18,640 Speaker 1: the game will be a focus for him and it's 267 00:12:18,720 --> 00:12:20,600 Speaker 1: very important to him. Yeah. Can we say it's close 268 00:12:20,600 --> 00:12:23,800 Speaker 1: to his heart? No uestion. So Bill Belichick was a 269 00:12:24,000 --> 00:12:28,200 Speaker 1: detailed stickler for special teams because of his background, and 270 00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:31,200 Speaker 1: he hires Joe Judge to be his special teams guy. 271 00:12:31,280 --> 00:12:34,319 Speaker 1: And you know, Judge himself said that he enjoyed playing 272 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,720 Speaker 1: against the Giants because it was such a challenge when 273 00:12:36,760 --> 00:12:39,640 Speaker 1: he was part of the Patriots staff, which means he 274 00:12:39,800 --> 00:12:44,079 Speaker 1: spend hours upon hours watching the Giants special teams knowing 275 00:12:44,160 --> 00:12:47,360 Speaker 1: that was his one on one opponent. Quality sees quality, 276 00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,600 Speaker 1: he knows what he's got here. One other note on 277 00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:52,760 Speaker 1: the staff itself, Anthony Blevins has been reassigned. He was 278 00:12:52,800 --> 00:12:55,400 Speaker 1: an assistant special teams coach last year. He will now 279 00:12:55,480 --> 00:12:57,920 Speaker 1: be the assistant defensive backs coach. He remains on the 280 00:12:57,960 --> 00:13:00,560 Speaker 1: staff Paul in terms of special teams himself. Else what 281 00:13:00,600 --> 00:13:03,079 Speaker 1: do you keep you an eye on this offseason? Heading 282 00:13:03,080 --> 00:13:05,600 Speaker 1: into god to look for a bounce back year from 283 00:13:05,640 --> 00:13:10,120 Speaker 1: Aldric Gross, a Pro Bowl kicker two seasons ago. Certainly 284 00:13:10,160 --> 00:13:12,320 Speaker 1: on the young side of his career, the Giants have 285 00:13:12,480 --> 00:13:16,520 Speaker 1: to believe he will return to form. Zach Diaci hundred 286 00:13:17,640 --> 00:13:22,040 Speaker 1: NFL regular season games finished last season on injured reserve 287 00:13:22,600 --> 00:13:25,000 Speaker 1: due to a knee injury remains to be seen. What 288 00:13:25,080 --> 00:13:27,400 Speaker 1: the Giants will do with that position. We'll keep an 289 00:13:27,400 --> 00:13:29,280 Speaker 1: eye on that throughout the off season. Thanks for being 290 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:31,839 Speaker 1: with us as the Giants announced their full coaching staff 291 00:13:31,880 --> 00:13:35,000 Speaker 1: for Hey Giants fans, se Kwon Barkley here.
