and the Super Bowl Champion Howard Cross breaking this one down.
The Giants get the win. Thirty four seventeen is the
final score over the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. Howard, not only
(00:42):
is this a win in the division after last season
the Giants were zero and six in the division, but
it's also a win against the defending Super Bowl champion
Philadelphia Eagles. This is a significant one energy wise, not
just for the way you got the win, but how
it happened. It feels you.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Know, it was significant.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
And the reason I think it was significant was because
they've had two or three games this year they could
have won.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
They could have won the Dallas game.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
They could have won the game against the Saints just
last week, and it seems like they just weren't finishing.
So this time they came into the game and they
were able to do the right things. They weren't giving up,
you know, forty and fifty yard plays. They kept themselves
in the game. Even when they did give up a play,
they would come right back and try to stop them.
So the offense kept the game going. The offensive line
(01:26):
played well, the running game worked, the receivers were making catches,
so I think there was one drop in the game,
and that makes a big difference. When the ball hits
your hands, you got to catch it, and they did
the good job of that today.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, this is the seventh straight home game that the
Giants have won. After scoring the opening drive touchdown, the
Giants came down the field score a touchdown on that
first drive. They've done that each of the last three games,
but of course at home. Two of those last three
games at home, translating to a win. Getting things going early,
getting that up, energy going, getting into the end zone,
(01:58):
the points on the board early obviously perative. But you
mentioned to the run game cam Skataboo ninety eight yards
two yards shy of one hundred is first hundred yard
but three touchdowns as well. Huge day for the rookie
running back who made his mark on national television.
Speaker 3 (02:14):
He did a good job running the ball to night.
But I think that this really echoes how well the
offensive line was blocking form. They ran a lot of
twelve packages, two tight ends, one back. They ran a
lot of even some thirteen package where they had three
tight ends and one back. That helps out a lot
on those edges when he can get over to the
edge just to the tackle if it's either the illuminis
(02:34):
or if he gets over to Thomas. If he gets
that far out and starts to cut up, then you
know you're selling guys back to the inside and he
gets a lot more room to run. And if he
gets outside on a or just through the gap up
on a secondary guide, they do not want to tackle him.
Speaker 1 (02:49):
Yeah, you mentioned the play of the offensive line was
imperative in this one too, especially considering the fact that
John Michael Schmid's giant starting center left the game in
the first half. He got hit in the face pretty
hard at defense arm kind of went through, uh the
eye slot is what I'm gonna call it. Through his
face mask, there we go. Found the word it's late
at night here through his face mask. Broke his not broke,
(03:11):
I don't know if it broke, but hid his nose.
He walked off the field of the bloody nose. Ended
up being out of the rest of the game with
the concussion. So JMS is out. Austin Schlotman moves in
at center. A clean transition there, but not just that one.
You know you're out Moleak neighbors for the season. Darius
Slayton is out this week with a hamstring. A lot
of X man up. You see Schlotman stepping up on
(03:32):
the offensive line, little Jordan Humphrey, Jalen Hyatt stepping up
in the receiving corps. The fact that the Giants were
able to get this win using some of their reserve
pieces in that way, what does that say about this group?
Speaker 3 (03:43):
Well, it just says that you have to find new
way to do things. I don't think that, you know,
it's a great thing that we lost my Leak, but
it gives a lot of other guys an opportunity to
start renick really find them finding their.
Speaker 2 (03:55):
Place in the in the offense and there like.
Speaker 3 (03:58):
All of a sudden, you know, looking from a eq Whalen,
you're dropping back, You're looking for everyone and they are
making plays for him. And the more you make plays
and more you catch the ball, and more confidence the
quarterbacks we have throwing you to ball. So that's that's
been the most exciting thing to me has seen so
how many other players have not just you know, had
an opportunity, but taken the opportunity and ran with it.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
How to get in here?
Speaker 4 (04:20):
If you're lined up here, you got to go over
the middle with at the score.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Right, how do we make that happen?
Speaker 4 (04:26):
I don't know, but Citizen does makes sense of your
money with Citizens Official Bank of Eli Manning right.
Speaker 1 (04:34):
And you know we talked about taking the opportunity. Little
Jordan Humphrey, a player who was called up from the
practice squad in a short week, a week that they
had walked through has been no actual practice, kind of
relying on that chemistry he built with Jackson Dart in
the spring in the summertime, getting that chemistry going there
at Jalen Hyatt also a player that we talked about
who you know last week kind of struggled to capitalize
(04:55):
on his opportunities. This week comes up five targets mixed
three catches and is pretty clutch for this team. In
certain moments, he did good.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
You know, when you throw the ball to a man
on a third down, that's when you know that you
can count on third and shorts, third and third and
lungs that are going going. Even even calls the pass
and inference on a deep ball because they were like,
you know, basically tackling mesigs going down the field. So
all those things are good and I think that gives
him confidence and makes him want to be, you know,
more active in the past game. Uh, we're going to
(05:24):
see when it starts, it's not just out so when
they start running ends. If he's able to get to
get the ball when he goes over the middle, that's
gonna be interesting to see in his development. If he
can do that also, that's gonna make him a better receiver,
give him more confidence, and it won't be just running
go routes that you guys will have to come up
on them. And when you come up on somebody that
runs that fast, that's when they.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Go by you.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Now, I mean, this is a huge moment too for
the Giants, who kind of turned things around. It's a
young team, as we saw last week in New Orleans,
got a few rookie mistakes. Giants had five turnovers on
five straight plays. This week, Jackson Dart a clean sheet,
no interceptions. The Giants defense comes away with a couple
of takeaways, including a Cordial Flot interception that he ran
back sixty eight yards. Not only a huge play for
(06:05):
the defense, but the Eagles, coming into Thursday Night Football,
were the only team in the NFL who hadn't thrown
an interception. Cordell Flott picks off Jalen Hurts for the
first time this season in a big moment, sets up
the offense on the twenty three. When your defense is
capitalizing and playing the game the defense the way they did,
how much does that help the momentum?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
It helps a lot, you know, I was watching it.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I was wondering, like everybody knows that that you know,
as great as Jalen is, he doesn't like to throw
the ball over the middle and he throws it to
the outside.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He throws up to the outside. The numbers a lot.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
So I was waiting for somebody, you know, to sit
on the route and see if it come up, and
I'm like, it's going to happen. It's gonna happen. Somebody's
gonna sit on and come up. It's like every every
team in the league knows it and the one's really
you know, founding a way to do it. Yet today
if Flott did it, it was pretty cool. It. It does
build great momentum because if the Eagles go down and
they were in the red zone, if they score right there,
(06:58):
it's you know, it's a tighter game, might change the
whole momentum of the game. So the big mum was
on on on our on our side, and the Flat
kind of carried it all the way back.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
A huge player from Cordell Flat there. Defensively though, not
just the turnovers, the takeaways, but also the pressure that
the Giants got on the quarterback. Ryan Burns two sacks
on Jalen Hurts tonight. He's got seven sacks on the season.
It's week six. Howard Burns has had seven or more
sacks in every season of his NFL career, but again
(07:29):
it's week six. The way that he is playing, the
way that he is seeing, you know, we talked to
Dexter Lawrence earlier this week, and he talked about how,
you know, we know Jalen Hurts likes to hold the
ball and take his time, and you got to be disciplined, uh,
and you've got to be able to trust your instincts
and and continue your pressure there. But the way that
they were able to get to the quarterback with some
of those stunts that the defense pulled, how did you
(07:51):
see that?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I saw it a lot.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You know what they call it the t the te stunts,
and you know it's yeah, it's like a tackle goes
in or comes out and hits it. The d taple
comes out and hits the tackle, and then the the
d N swoops around and goes in because the guardbles
follow him over and you go back around. They do
it the opposite way sometimes as well. Sometimes the defensive
end comes down and picks the guard and then the
(08:15):
tackle rolls around behind him. So both in both occasions,
the guy that's following has to be able to, you know,
the alignment of the file has to be able to
watch and catch the guy that's coming around. Most of
the time they can't because there's so word this guy's
will get between them. And get to the quarterback that
they freak out a little bit. And it's sometimes it
seems like an easy play because it's done a lot,
but it really works a lot. And when you have
(08:37):
a guy as fast as Jayla, you know, you got
Carter doing it. Then you got Thibodeaux doing Sometimes you
got Burns and Carter doing it. Sometimes Thibodeau's and Carter's
doing it. It's it gets a little hairy for guys.
When guys are that fast, comes down them on that side.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
If you want to know how to manage two minutes
of crunch time football on your matt But if you're
wondering about a long term financial plan, you should.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Talk to citizens.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Hey, I can also talk long care.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I'd like to learn about AMLI routine.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Yes, I knew I could help make sense of your
money with citizens.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Some key stats to look at two in this one,
Giants were three of three in the red zone, something
that early on in the season. We saw them struggling
with eleven of sixteen on third down, something that early
on in the season we were struggling with the way
that you look at the capitalizing on those situations. What
was the key stat to you that stands out in this.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
One, I think the third down. But you know, the
thing they're not tolling us about is like how there
was not a lot of third and tens, third and nine,
third and eight, that most of the third downs were
reasonable third downs.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
No, I mean there were some, especially early in the
game in that first half, there were some third and
lungs that you know, Jackson Dart hit the over for
that twenty two yard game. There were some big gains
on third and long as well.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Yeah, but for the majority of them he'd do with
three to kape keep it going. That's awesome, But the
majority of them more like reasonable plays, and that that
helps out a lot when when you get because what
was happening was the running game working so well. You know,
you're getting four yards on the first down, then you're
getting a couple more yards now you got third and four,
you got third and five.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So those are reasonable plays.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
But when you compare to Phillies one of nine on
third down, they also had some reasonable place as well.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Sometimes you drop, well, they had a couple of drops,
but they had more. They had more long long third down,
third and eight and third and eight more, which which
is what we were hoping for the whole time. But
if it seems like if they didn't get if they
got it to third down.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
They had a problem. They were just and it wasn't
just the pressure.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
It was you know, Jalen's trying to wait for his
guys to get up on the outside. The Giants had
more you know, had more leverage on the outside, so
he's looking a little longer. That's why when you saw
guys catching the ball in the middle, it was because
he'd held the ball for almost four seconds, and in
four seconds he's like, Okay, there's nobody out on each side.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Oh, somebody's in the middle. Wow, he caught. It's amazing.
It's like it was.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
It was like one of those things is it's funny,
but you know what he's doing. The guy was covering
the tight end. The tight end killed us tonight, didn't
kill us. But he like he made a lot of
plays for himself.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, Dallas Goddard had himself a night. Nine receptions, one
hundred and ten yards and a touchdown at thirty six
yard long. But still the Giants get the win thirty
four to seventeen. A win in the division is an
important one. Their second win of the season, improving to
two and four, and then they've got another one next
week against the Denver Broncos. It's a tough one, but
how are the Giants playing on Thursday night? Have an
(11:25):
extra three days of rest to get ready for that one. Meanwhile,
the Denver Broncos taking on the Jets in London, so
a little bit of extra travel for the Broncos. The
Broncos team that just last week defeated the Eagles, remains
to be seen how they'll play against the Jets. And
you know, Bonnicks talked about it earlier this week. He said,
you know, it's disrespectful to think any team, even a
winless team, is a trap game or a game that
(11:47):
you can take for granted. But when you look at
the way that this Broncos team is playing, what is
your key to this matchup?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I mean, the biggest thing is going to be controlling
bon Knicks. I think they got some decent receips is
a pretty good run game. Their offensive wild course is
usually pretty good. And Sean Payton, who he knows how
to love to put people in motion and give you
a lot of window dressing and get your eyes focused
on things that you don't need to watch necessarily, and
(12:15):
then he runs the place well.
Speaker 1 (12:17):

win over the Eagles on Thursday Night Football. And that's

The Giants get the win. Thirty four seventeen is the
final score over the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. Howard, not only
(00:42):
is this a win in the division after last season
the Giants were zero and six in the division, but
it's also a win against the defending Super Bowl champion
Philadelphia Eagles. This is a significant one energy wise, not
just for the way you got the win, but how
it happened. It feels you.
Speaker 2 (00:58):
Know, it was significant.
Speaker 3 (01:00):
And the reason I think it was significant was because
they've had two or three games this year they could
have won.
Speaker 2 (01:04):
They could have won the Dallas game.
Speaker 3 (01:05):
They could have won the game against the Saints just
last week, and it seems like they just weren't finishing.
So this time they came into the game and they
were able to do the right things. They weren't giving up,
you know, forty and fifty yard plays. They kept themselves

so I think there was one drop in the game,
and that makes a big difference. When the ball hits
your hands, you got to catch it, and they did
the good job of that today.
Speaker 1 (01:38):
Yeah, this is the seventh straight home game that the
Giants have won. After scoring the opening drive touchdown, the
Giants came down the field score a touchdown on that
first drive. They've done that each of the last three games,
but of course at home. Two of those last three
games at home, translating to a win. Getting things going early,
getting that up, energy going, getting into the end zone,
(01:58):
the points on the board early obviously perative. But you
mentioned to the run game cam Skataboo ninety eight yards
two yards shy of one hundred is first hundred yard
but three touchdowns as well. Huge day for the rookie

You know you're out Moleak neighbors for the season. Darius

Speaker 3 (03:43):
Well, it just says that you have to find new

been the most exciting thing to me has seen so
how many other players have not just you know, had

Speaker 2 (04:18):

If you're lined up here, you got to go over
the middle with at the score.
Speaker 2 (04:23):
Right, how do we make that happen?
Speaker 4 (04:26):
I don't know, but Citizen does makes sense of your

Speaker 1 (04:34):

give him more confidence, and it won't be just running
go routes that you guys will have to come up
on them. And when you come up on somebody that
runs that fast, that's when they.
Speaker 2 (05:42):
Go by you.
Speaker 1 (05:43):
Now, I mean, this is a huge moment too for
the Giants, who kind of turned things around. It's a
young team, as we saw last week in New Orleans,
got a few rookie mistakes. Giants had five turnovers on
five straight plays. This week, Jackson Dart a clean sheet,
no interceptions. The Giants defense comes away with a couple
of takeaways, including a Cordial Flot interception that he ran
back sixty eight yards. Not only a huge play for
(06:05):
the defense, but the Eagles, coming into Thursday Night Football,
were the only team in the NFL who hadn't thrown
an interception. Cordell Flott picks off Jalen Hurts for the
first time this season in a big moment, sets up
the offense on the twenty three. When your defense is
capitalizing and playing the game the defense the way they did,
how much does that help the momentum?
Speaker 2 (06:24):
It helps a lot, you know, I was watching it.
Speaker 3 (06:26):
I was wondering, like everybody knows that that you know,
as great as Jalen is, he doesn't like to throw
the ball over the middle and he throws it to
the outside.
Speaker 2 (06:34):
He throws up to the outside. The numbers a lot.
Speaker 3 (06:37):
So I was waiting for somebody, you know, to sit
on the route and see if it come up, and
I'm like, it's going to happen. It's gonna happen. Somebody's
gonna sit on and come up. It's like every every
team in the league knows it and the one's really
you know, founding a way to do it. Yet today
if Flott did it, it was pretty cool. It. It does
build great momentum because if the Eagles go down and
they were in the red zone, if they score right there,
(06:58):
it's you know, it's a tighter game, might change the
whole momentum of the game. So the big mum was
on on on our on our side, and the Flat
kind of carried it all the way back.
Speaker 1 (07:07):
A huge player from Cordell Flat there. Defensively though, not
just the turnovers, the takeaways, but also the pressure that
the Giants got on the quarterback. Ryan Burns two sacks
on Jalen Hurts tonight. He's got seven sacks on the season.
It's week six. Howard Burns has had seven or more
sacks in every season of his NFL career, but again
(07:29):
it's week six. The way that he is playing, the
way that he is seeing, you know, we talked to
Dexter Lawrence earlier this week, and he talked about how,
you know, we know Jalen Hurts likes to hold the
ball and take his time, and you got to be disciplined, uh,
and you've got to be able to trust your instincts
and and continue your pressure there. But the way that
they were able to get to the quarterback with some
of those stunts that the defense pulled, how did you
(07:51):
see that?
Speaker 2 (07:52):
I saw it a lot.
Speaker 3 (07:52):
You know what they call it the t the te stunts,
and you know it's yeah, it's like a tackle goes
in or comes out and hits it. The d taple
comes out and hits the tackle, and then the the
d N swoops around and goes in because the guardbles
follow him over and you go back around. They do
it the opposite way sometimes as well. Sometimes the defensive
end comes down and picks the guard and then the
(08:15):
tackle rolls around behind him. So both in both occasions,
the guy that's following has to be able to, you know,
the alignment of the file has to be able to
watch and catch the guy that's coming around. Most of
the time they can't because there's so word this guy's
will get between them. And get to the quarterback that
they freak out a little bit. And it's sometimes it
seems like an easy play because it's done a lot,
but it really works a lot. And when you have
(08:37):
a guy as fast as Jayla, you know, you got
Carter doing it. Then you got Thibodeaux doing Sometimes you
got Burns and Carter doing it. Sometimes Thibodeau's and Carter's
doing it. It's it gets a little hairy for guys.
When guys are that fast, comes down them on that side.
Speaker 4 (08:51):
If you want to know how to manage two minutes
of crunch time football on your matt But if you're
wondering about a long term financial plan, you should.
Speaker 2 (08:58):
Talk to citizens.
Speaker 4 (08:59):
Hey, I can also talk long care.
Speaker 2 (09:00):
I'd like to learn about AMLI routine.
Speaker 4 (09:02):
Yes, I knew I could help make sense of your
money with citizens.
Speaker 1 (09:07):
Some key stats to look at two in this one,
Giants were three of three in the red zone, something
that early on in the season. We saw them struggling
with eleven of sixteen on third down, something that early
on in the season we were struggling with the way
that you look at the capitalizing on those situations. What
was the key stat to you that stands out in this.
Speaker 3 (09:29):
One, I think the third down. But you know, the
thing they're not tolling us about is like how there
was not a lot of third and tens, third and nine,
third and eight, that most of the third downs were
reasonable third downs.
Speaker 1 (09:39):
No, I mean there were some, especially early in the
game in that first half, there were some third and
lungs that you know, Jackson Dart hit the over for
that twenty two yard game. There were some big gains
on third and long as well.
Speaker 3 (09:47):
Yeah, but for the majority of them he'd do with
three to kape keep it going. That's awesome, But the
majority of them more like reasonable plays, and that that
helps out a lot when when you get because what
was happening was the running game working so well. You know,
you're getting four yards on the first down, then you're
getting a couple more yards now you got third and four,
you got third and five.
Speaker 2 (10:07):
So those are reasonable plays.
Speaker 1 (10:09):
But when you compare to Phillies one of nine on
third down, they also had some reasonable place as well.
Speaker 3 (10:14):
Sometimes you drop, well, they had a couple of drops,
but they had more. They had more long long third down,
third and eight and third and eight more, which which
is what we were hoping for the whole time. But
if it seems like if they didn't get if they
got it to third down.
Speaker 2 (10:26):
They had a problem. They were just and it wasn't
just the pressure.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
It was you know, Jalen's trying to wait for his
guys to get up on the outside. The Giants had
more you know, had more leverage on the outside, so
he's looking a little longer. That's why when you saw
guys catching the ball in the middle, it was because
he'd held the ball for almost four seconds, and in
four seconds he's like, Okay, there's nobody out on each side.
Speaker 2 (10:47):
Oh, somebody's in the middle. Wow, he caught. It's amazing.
It's like it was.
Speaker 3 (10:53):
It was like one of those things is it's funny,
but you know what he's doing. The guy was covering
the tight end. The tight end killed us tonight, didn't
kill us. But he like he made a lot of
plays for himself.
Speaker 1 (11:02):
Yeah, Dallas Goddard had himself a night. Nine receptions, one
hundred and ten yards and a touchdown at thirty six
yard long. But still the Giants get the win thirty
four to seventeen. A win in the division is an
important one. Their second win of the season, improving to
two and four, and then they've got another one next
week against the Denver Broncos. It's a tough one, but
how are the Giants playing on Thursday night? Have an
(11:25):
extra three days of rest to get ready for that one. Meanwhile,
the Denver Broncos taking on the Jets in London, so
a little bit of extra travel for the Broncos. The
Broncos team that just last week defeated the Eagles, remains
to be seen how they'll play against the Jets. And
you know, Bonnicks talked about it earlier this week. He said,
you know, it's disrespectful to think any team, even a
winless team, is a trap game or a game that
(11:47):
you can take for granted. But when you look at
the way that this Broncos team is playing, what is
your key to this matchup?
Speaker 3 (11:55):
I mean, the biggest thing is going to be controlling
bon Knicks. I think they got some decent receips is
a pretty good run game. Their offensive wild course is
usually pretty good. And Sean Payton, who he knows how
to love to put people in motion and give you
a lot of window dressing and get your eyes focused
on things that you don't need to watch necessarily, and
(12:15):
then he runs the place well.
Speaker 1 (12:17):
The Giants coming away with a thirty four to seventeen
win over the Eagles on Thursday Night Football. And that's
