"Yeah, I mean, if you're a saquon Barkley, you were hoping to get an opportunity to look at the market, find yourself with the contender under a contract that you like, but they prioritized the quarterback. They wanted to make sure they got Daniel Jones deal done. Now you look at the deal if it's four for one 60 at its base, that's 40 million a year. That's a little bit above what I think Daniel Jones is worth, but if you believe that this is your guy going forward if Daniel Jones and throwing 15 touchdowns, cutting down on the turnovers, getting you to the divisional round of the playoffs is exactly what you needed to see, then the New York Giants went out and did exactly what they felt. They needed to do. Now keeping both of their young stars on the offense. It's about how you build their own Daniel Jones going forward. You've now given him that second deal. It's not one of those deals that totally blows your salary cap. So can Daniel Jones take that next step and be worth the money that I think they're paying him over what he's earned up to this point. That's the important part for the New York Giants. Well, you're going to overpay for the quarterback. And that's just the way it is in today's world. The Baltimore Ravens ain't overpaying her. Not just. That's it. We'll see. But here's the situation with Daniel Jones. I think he's sitting in a good spot and I think they believe this. And RC mentioned the numbers. He's ascending in the right direction. I think they look at him. Can he become like Lawrence and Herbert and Jalen hurts? Is he going to ascend that way? And I think only they know. They're there every day in the building with him. They watch him practice. The guy's been there for 5 years, hasn't said anything. He's a good leader. He's a big quarterback. This is not a small man. He can run. He has a lot of talent and they're betting on the talent and when you're the Giants, you get to try to keep both of your stars on offense and you found a way to do it. Man. A lot of money. Josh. You mentioned that 5th year option being declined earlier, the economics on that, a little over $22 million at the Giants would have had Daniel Jones for next year, instead he gets up to a 195 million bucks. Let's walk saquon Barkley as while Daniel Jones had his breakout year. Saquon Barkley had a bounce back season himself after being limited to 15 games in preview in the previous two seasons, Barclay played 16 games in 2022 while recording for twice as many rush yards as he had in the previous two seasons combined. He finished a league with the fourth most rushing yards, but also recording ten rushing touchdowns. Your thoughts on the giant's franchise tagging saquon Barkley showed a long-term deal to be a priority right now. He's running back. History of this young man. He's a fantastic player. Not always available. And that is the problem with running things. You have to be available. And when you're not available, that's a concern. And he wasn't available at times in college. He's coming to the National Football League. He's played two complete seasons of every game. Other than that, he's missed some games. Not a lot of games, but you have to be available. The bottom line, and when you play a running back, you have to show up. I mean, that's part of the deal, right? And so I think this is why they chose to go in the direction that they did with the quarterback and with the runner. I'll tell you what the difficult spot that this puts the Giants in right now are sacrum Barkley actually. The franchise tech for a running back is just over $10 million. That is lower, lower than what the Giants I'm told were offering saquon Barkley on a multiyear deal. And so the franchise tag leverage shifts to the Giants here because whereas they had an offer on the table, the franchise tag is worth even less than what they were offering before. And that's why if your shake bomb Barkley, you can't be pleased about today's developments knowing how much you've meant to the franchise. I mean, just think about this. Take one Barkley is an incredible player. Daniel Jones has been a really good quarterback. Daniel Jones deal comes in at an average of about $40 million a year. We'll see the fine print of that contract. The franchise tag for secret. I'm Barkley, is 10 million. So Daniel Jones 40, saquon ten. I know that that's what the football world is. Does that make sense? The thing is this, right? We understand how the NFL sees running backs. They think that finding a running back is easier than finding a quarterback that a quarterback that becomes your franchise guy is worth that money and positionally that is true. We haven't seen the running back necessarily on his own. Take his team to the Super Bowl but when you look at the resurgence of the New York Giants, that coincided with the resurgence of saquon Barkley and so I know for the Giants it was about keeping him. Now you want to see if they're using that franchise tag a good faith of negotiations or if they're using that franchise tag as leverage. Well, RC, that franchise tag for a running back has become a weapon for teams. Because we saw 6 players tagged three of them are running backs. Three giants tagged broccoli, the cowboys tag Tony Powell, the Raiders tagged Josh Jacobs. So as much as running backs value around the league has taken a hit, team still see value in placing the franchise tag on a great running back as is evident by what happened here in the past week. Worth noting are Jordan ranan, who covers the Giants as an excellent job, has suggested in the past ten minutes that a deal for saquon could be around the corner a long-term extension to keep him with the G men. And speaking of saquon, and he's happy for his guy, he had this to say on Twitter about Daniel Jones, congrats butter to Daniel Jones ten, who I don't think Daniel Jones spends too much time on Twitter, but if he does, he will now have a shout out from his guy, say Quan Barkley. Coming up here on NFL live, the chief decided against placing a franchise tag and Orlando Brown junior, RC will tell us why they're Super Bowl victory should make it clear that KC needs him back.

He took to Twitter to say, anyone who thinks I have time to come back to the NFL has never adopted a two month old kitten for their daughter, not gonna lie though. That kid is cute. I've seen it all over Twitter and Instagram. Let's get back to our top stories as Adam Schefter, who jumps back on and is the franchise tag deadline day chef. It came and went to 4 p.m. Eastern Time. What do we know and let's start with Lamar Jackson and the ravens. All right, we knew he wasn't going to reach a long-term deal. We knew he was going to get the tag, but he got the non exclusive franchise tag, which is worth just over $32 million, which means another team can sign him to an offer sheet, the ravens would have the chance to match that offer sheet or receive two first round draft picks in return, but Lamar now has a chance to test his value on the open market. Meanwhile, Daniel

"Seahawks gave Geno Smith a three year deal and this is a win win because I looked at Geno Smith and I thought, all right, I had a really good year, 17 starts, 30 touchdown passes, 11 interceptions, led the league in completion percentage, career backup, and he is revitalized his career in Seattle, and I thought, okay, do something smart. And find that kind of middle ground that safe landing for everybody. And I always go back to a quarterback like Mitchell trubisky. If trubisky said to the bears, pay me $28 million a year, $30 million a year. Give me three years for $95 million. Give me 60 guaranteed. He'd still be there. Now you might say they're better off with Justin Fields, but I'm just talking about from the quarterbacking standpoint. When you go, hey, I'm next up. I want 45. I want 50. All I want to do is find a safe landing area where I can continue to be a starting quarterback, get great money, life-changing money without going to a backup role with somebody else. And you know, it feels team friendly. But Seattle had the leverage here because they could say to genome, we got a top 5 draft pick. We are going to use that on a quarterback. And they might use that on a quarterback because who knows the next time they'll be up in that area. Of the draft. But for Geno, take the money, get the money, guaranteed money, you can be the starting quarterback for at least two more years. Maybe you're going to outplay the numbers in your contract. Maybe you would get another contract after this. But don't, it's like Daniel Jones with the Giants. Daniel Jones should be looking at that safe soft landing area. Not $45 million a year. Would I pay that based off one really good year? No. I wouldn't. Now, do I franchise him and say, all right, let me see you do it again. Even if you gave him the non exclusive and you paid him 32 million is somebody going to sign him to a deal and then give you two first round draft picks for Daniel Jones. I don't think so. Therefore, I'd say to Daniel Jones, we'd still like you to be our starting quarterback, but we don't want to pay you what is commensurate to some of the great quarterbacks of the game. You've got to make it a little team friendly. Now I'm all for the player getting whatever they can get, but you got to be smart in a situation like this because you don't want to price yourself out of a starting job. And you're playing in New York. But if you want to bet on yourself, just say franchise tag me and I'll prove it again. Saquon Barkley. What do you do with saquon Barkley?

"It's recognizing the golden child Tessa. That's that has been an overhang. You know, because of the Twitter spider web. Dan, do they have to come out with new models? The original Model S isn't that the same as it's been for ten years. And they all look like that. Do they need to come up with anything? How do they talk about that? Well, they do because then you start to get into four 1919 going into 1927 where GM basically overtook them because they worked in innovate. I think if you look, the CyberTruck coming out later this year. I think potentially an SUV, you know, in terms of some of the roadster and some others, they're going to need to expand that from a penetration perspective. But then you take a step back. We are in the early days of the biggest transmission to the auto industry since 1950s. I mean, the CyberTruck will be huge when it comes out. It's just a bummer that it keeps getting delayed and delayed and delayed and everybody else gets to some extent in advantage the Ford has gotten great reviews. Paul loved it. It looks very traditional. The Chevy seems like it's going to be even better. The GMC Hummer is like on another level. The CyberTruck could be a better product than all of those, but it's just coming so many years late that everybody with a $150,000 to spend an electric truck has already done it. And now if you look at this stuff coming at GM and Ford, it is a renaissance that I believe has happened in Detroit. And that's why for Tessa, it's about me sure that this window opportunity, they don't lose. But the ultimate takeaway here is that they are put in iron fence around their backyard by the price cut and that call last night felt I'd say exactly what the bulls needed to sort of take this house. The way I always forget to mention rivian. And I shouldn't, because we have listeners who love the Riviera. Yeah, they look pretty cool. They look amazing. What do you think about the company about rivian? Is it gonna be a challenger? Because they have also got production nightmares, the likes of which Elon Musk would have dreamt of back in the day. No doubt, missing a lot of time rivian. At their factory in Illinois, I'm bullish on rivian in terms of where they could take this. Clearly there have been just massive speed bumps coming out of the gate. They need to navigate that, but they are going to be a player for many, many years. Dan, you're a football giant New York Giants football Giants fan. What do they do with Daniel Jones and saquon Barkley? Oh, I think they resign. Both and especially the goat SAE Kwan, I think that's a no brainer that they have to re sign them. Okay. All right. I mean, that's in my opinion, those are two. I think that proved that this year that now I'd be shocked if they don't re sign them. How about pennsylvan football increasingly abolish? They had a good year. Didn't beat Ohio State or Michigan, but still a good year. And still have those bruises that I'm wearing after beating two time PAC 12 champ and I believe they're a top 5 team next year. I think that they've now made that weep into the elite category. All right. And bullish on Penn State football. I just configured my Tesla Model X and it's only a 122 5. So it's not insanely easy, dude. I know, but I didn't add the auto full autopilot full self-driving feature. So I'm saving like $6000 there. All right, Dan ice, what security? Joining us here in our Bloomberg interact is broker studio talking all things Tesla. This is Wimbledon. Now your company news headlines. From Bloomberg world headquarters, I'm Steve rappaport, better numbers and a better forecast drive Tesla into the green, the stock opening higher after the electric automaker topped expectations in the fourth quarter. Tesla also says it's on track to deliver about 1.8 million vehicles this year representing a production boost of about 38%. Elon Musk on a call with analysts predicted output of nearly 2 million vehicles without unexpected disruptions. Shares of meta platforms are up after the tech giant announced it will reinstate former president Trump's Facebook and Instagram accounts, more from Bloomberg's Kurt Wagner. We kind of expected I think this is what Facebook was going to do because what they'd said was they needed to basically figure out, is there still a heightened risk of violence in this case, right? That's why he was suspended after January 6th. And it's been two years, right? So I think it would have been hard for them to come up with a good reason to keep him off and said they're bringing him back and saying, if he has more violations, he'll be suspended again quite quickly. Meta says suspensions for future violations will range from one month to two years depending on the severity of the offense.

"Now this Bloomberg sports update, the jets and the Giants are both in very precarious positions as they pursue their playoff options. The jets go first on Sunday, they'll host the Lions Detroit's playing for something. They're trying to work their way into the NFC playoff picture. The jets well. They're worried about the AFC playoff scenarios right now and they're worried about what kind of production they'll get at quarterback from Zach Wilson. Wilson's been benched for three games and now with the Mike white injury that puts Wilson front and center under center for the jets against Detroit. Again, it's a 1 o'clock kick on Sunday. The Giants and the commanders will butt heads again. They'll go prime time 8 20 kick-off at FedEx field, the commanders and the Giants last time they've met. It was a 20 to 20 tie. That was back on December 4th, so the commanders are 5 one and one since Tyler henneke replaced Carson Wentz. They're on the upswing giants are hoping that saquon Barkley is healthy and if they get him healthy and they're running game gets back in sync, then they become a much more dangerous team. Of course, the Giants defense has been banged up lately. In the NFL on Saturday, the biggest comeback ever was turned in by the Minnesota Vikings. They were down 33 nothing in the third quarter to the colts. And then everything flipped. Final score 39 36 the Vikings win in OT and they wrap up the NFC north with the victory. The browns were at home against the ravens, no offense for Baltimore without Lamar Jackson, Cleveland wins 13 to three. Hockey it was the rangers beating the flyers 6 to three. They've won 6 straight. The Devils lose. They've lost 5 in a row, Florida beats them four to two. That's your Bloomberg sports update. I'm Dan guitar ski. This is a Bloomberg money minute. It's been a challenging few years for multiple industries, perhaps none more than traveled in hospitality, but despite headwinds old and new this year the business has seen a dramatic rebound.

"Have a better sense of what they are. Like I don't think there's going to be a whole lot of volatility as we go week to week here. And again, if I pull up the spreadsheet, the luck adjusted point differential spreadsheet, or as it's better known by its acronym Kingsbury, this would the Vikings have basically no luck. And when I say no luck, I don't mean good luck. I don't mean bad. I mean, they're right even. This is where they should be. As far as their performance goes so far in these games, when it comes to stuff like fourth and short conversions, fourth and short convergence allowed. Red zone efficiency opponent kicker performance at this point. All that stuff basically adds up to a wash for them and they're where they rank in the list here. They're 7th right now. Which, yeah, that's so that's about 5 and one four and two, but you do raise a good point. And I hate to kind of overrate strength of schedule because everyone's pretty good in the NFL. No one's that bad. There's no we just played Vanderbilt now in alcorn state and UMass and those are our wins. But those are really, those are among teams they beat. Yeah, I mean, the lines are one in four, the bears are maybe the second worst team in the NFL. And you gave up 22 points. I don't know, man. Almost 200 yards passing to Justin Fields and they don't really allow him to throw the ball. So, I don't know. I mean, yes, Vikings were aware that you're 5 and one. We're very happy for you. If I'm looking if I'm gonna do a Mike franza and go down the rest of this schedule, I would imagine that you're gonna finish with a pretty good record, right? So they're coming off the buy, you figure they'll beat the Cardinals to go 6 and one, the commanders to go 7 and one. Then you have that tough stretch. We have the bills, the cowboys, the Patriots, the jets. Even if you come through there eating three, they have the Lions again, you have the colts, the Giants, the packers and the bears. It's like, no one's gonna stop you. You're probably gonna get like what a 6 seed? Look at the packers don't get themselves right. You're gonna win the win that division. Yeah. That's true. And then the packers get the 6 seed and boy with that suck for someone to have to play them in the first round of the playoffs. The other team I wanna compare the 22 Vikings to is the 2021 Vikings who of course, when 8 9 and I've talked about it on the show and I've been fortunate enough to be on his podcast, ty shelter, who doesn't work for 5 38, keeps track every year of the coin flip wins. We kind of overrate one possession games because if you were trailing by 17 and scored some garbage points and got to within 8 or whatever it is, you now played in one session game, even though you really didn't have a great chance to win. The coin flip games are when probability is 60 40 or closer in the last 5 minutes. Last year the Vikings went three and three in those games. They finish 8 and 9. This year they're two and O, they would be three zero if you threw the bears game in there, the bears actually was just outside that window just outside that 5 minute window when it was within the 60 40 stretch there. So you could say there are three and zero and coin flips this year. They were three and three in coin flips a year ago. If they lose three coin flips coming up, then you're 5 and four, which is probably about what you are as a team. Right. So what you're saying is, I'm right, leave us alone, Dave. And Vikings fans just, you know, this is what I say to everybody. Enjoy your time. You know, enjoy, enjoy the time, don't be a dick because, you know what's gonna happen is eventually you're the Vikings, right? Like it's all, it's all gonna come back to the fact that you're the Vikings. Everything regresses to the mean. Conor has to wake up every morning and say eventually it's gonna, we're gonna be Connor or at the end of the day. So do Vikings fans. Let's go to the next one. This is a good one. So this is from Chris. Who's the more valuable trade piece for the Panthers who, of course, are coming up on fire sale season as we get toward the trade deadline. Christian McCaffrey, DJ Moore, or Brian burns. I'll let you go first. 'cause that's a tough question. I don't think it is. But I'll say this first and I have a great amount of appreciation for I think it was good morning football. And them and Peter schrager was saying, you know, the Christian McCaffrey's on the block and he's like, this isn't gonna be a fire sale. He's like, they're talking multiple first round picks for these guys. And I was like, I'm sure that that information was accurate was reported accurately. I don't deny that. What I think we should do is try to get inside the head of Scott fitter here and think, do you really think you're getting multiple first round picks for Christian McCaffrey? DJ Moore? Do we really think that we're getting a windfall of talent to come from here? I'm sure here's what I'm sure of. I'm sure David tepper went into that room and was like, you better get a lot of picks for these guys or else you're in trouble. I'm sure it was then communicated backwards through the media that way. But boy, howdy. This is not gonna be, you know, he's going into it like I go into every garage sale, right? Which is like, oh, I'm gonna make enough money to go on vacation. And then after the garage here, you're like, we might be able to go out to dinner, you know? Maybe. This is how it works, you know? No one wanted this old stapler? You kidding me? $7. What does this taper cost nowadays? So look, we're here in the northeast. We're in kind of giants country and we had some of these questions thrown at us from friends and loved ones about saquon Barkley and like, oh, well, John, they just trade saquon for one right now. It's like, well, there's no little pay it, but also sure they would. I'm not sure saquon Barkley gets a one right now, even though he's a legitimate offensive player that your candidate in the NFL at this point. He's having a great season. He will, I'm sure, have a couple of good years left in him, but that's just the way it goes. Well, let me put it this way, though. Who would you, who would you anticipate they would get the most for? I'd say Brian burns once because he is, and I'd even argue Brian burns is probably the least proven commodity of the three, but it's just such a rarity to find a young passer like that. The other issue with him is he is finishing up. This is why last year of his rookie deal, then there's the option year. I should have looked this up before we started having the conversation. I'm going to say that and then I'll correct it if it needs to be corrected in a few minutes. Yeah, so he'll have a 2019 draft pick, so 1920 21, 22, and then 23 is his option here. So if you trade for him, you're going to have to pay him as well. That has not deterred some teams in the past, but you trade firm than you pay for him in two ways at this point. DJ Moore is, he's look, he got one of those deals before the big wide receiver boom, so he's all of a sudden on a pretty team friendly deal at this point. And then, yeah, McCaffrey, who probably you'd feel best about plugging him into your lineup. And as you have said, come to the year, the check down is becoming more and more prevalent across the NFL, he is obviously a huge check down weapon he is playing on a team that does not have quarterbacks who effectively check down. So he might take off somewhere else. He might be someone saquon Barkley, if he lands in the right spot. But yeah, I probably order in that with burns

"Well, this was a fun one for the show, Connor. Boy, abracadaniel recovers from a bad red zone interception. It sort of got beat up some protection issues, Jeffrey Simmons, boy. Jeffrey Simmons is quite the player. If I do say so, but this ends up being Daniel Jones getting it done in the end and saquon Barkley pretty much looking like what saquon Barkley was supposed to be coming into the NFL. Can you imagine a more satisfied person on earth right now today than saquon Barkley? I thought you were going to say Dave gettleman. No. No, because here's the thing. Saquon Barkley ended up sort of dying for Dave gettleman since, right? Yeah. Dave gettleman drafted saquon Barkley as the capstone of this masterpiece that had no foundation or no blueprint or no plan. He was just like here. A franchise running back. Now, now it's working. And every giant's coach that came after that was like, why didn't he help us out with anything else? Like Quinton Nelson, could I please have Quinton Nelson? But Brian dabel was the first coach to look at this and just be like, all right, you know, this isn't going to be great, but we're going to be able to get him in some space. We're going to be able to move him around. And that's exactly what they did. They got him involved, and they utilized him as a really fast and strong 225 pound person who can beat you with athleticism. What a novel concept. Long plays, big plays, two from Barkley, one long touchdown to Sterling shepherd, and they just kind of hung around. The defense is still not particularly good, but they were certainly good enough to keep this one from getting out of hand. I mean, it was a 13 zero game and that they came back and obviously they win it late. On a two point conversion and then get a little bit of help from a good old Randy Bullock. Pulling that kick. But yeah man, this is satisfying and again, like on top of sigma Barkley, you had kadir's Tony not terribly involved in the office, but when he was, it was just kind of like, wow, this guy is really difficult to tackle. You know, they had sort of a broken wide receiver option pass where he turned it into a 5 yard gain where a lot of guys would have either thrown an interception or, I don't know, lost 11 yards on the play. So Watson neat stuff here. Was he worth the first round pick? I mean, that's not that's not for me to say, right? And this is a really difficult place to judge him because of the regime that he came in with. All that kind of stuff. I don't know if he was the first round receiver or not. I'm not, you know, I'm not angry scout. I don't know these things with absolute certainty. But what I do know is that all these players were used situationally the way that we all assumed they would have been used when they were drafted.

Long reception was obviously one where you know. He took some player input. That was that was long gain. That sake wanted told him. They're covering me this way. You know there's going to be a soft spot in the defense you go back to that shot later in the game. I think he's moving him around a little bit more and he's allowing daniel jones kenny golladay to develop that that trust in bonn which is this is why you paid for him in the first place. He's the best contested catch receiver in the nfl. You're just allowing the two of them to establish a report darius. Tony finally got the ball and can put in a sensible way You know not like a jet sweep that was you know just doomed from the beginning and was gonna get blasted at yards behind the line like you know. Now you're starting to roll little bit momentum. Wise in as unhappy as people ben with jason garrett this is probably the game that gets people off of his back a little bit. And i have to say in the last segment. When connor said the team he picked to win. The nfc east is out of it. I mean hey. Maybe they're not. We just talked about how good the cowboys are. And of course they're taking me in that division. But i thought this was really encouraging step for the giants because all of the good things that we'd seen daniel jones the first three weeks of the season that weren't being fully utilized and t. The team wasn't turning those into wins and it just felt like the progress that jones had made was being put to waste. Today was different and there was a quality win against the saints. So who knows. Maybe they just needed a couple of weeks for things to come together. I think this could be an interesting division race if i can pull the curtain back in a way that nobody cares about for just a moment. I are are other mitch's out this week. So i was sort of feeling. Connors pitches for of game day columns and we were talking basically giants funeral midway through the third quarter as they had the ball in their own territory trailing by eleven and and i think right after that exchange we had the the saquon barkley long touch about which which again it's like it's a blown coverage it's a blown zone coverage by the saints but if they know the giants tendencies yeah you're not expecting saquon barkley to actually run further than five yards past line of scrimmage when he's lined up wide i mean that's that's not what they do that that's what they did on display and it ends up in the yard touchdown there yet could area's. Tony was a big factor in this one. But i do to bring up the one thing. We kind of wondered coming into the season can get sort of the maximize daniel jones. Where he's giving you the big plays but also he's not losing four fumbles per game since that week..

CEO of X2, Mark French, on How His Product Has Disrupted the Market
"Now. A couple of questions. I have here for you one. Is you guys are operating this business. And i would say that it is. It is disruptive what you're doing from what i can tell. The brand seems to be disruptive. What do you accredit the the rapid growth to do. What do you attribute the rapid growth to why is it. Being such a disruptive success. I would say there's more people coming to the category now right so there's certain people that would never try an energy drink right that more health conscious consumer really was not interested in putting in other bodies some of these beverages that had you know some you know ingredients that you can't even pronounce so as more people. Are you know looking for energy solutions. Whether it's a coffee drinker. That wants something. A little bit cleaner lighter Or you know somebody that might be drinking other energy drinks but is trying to live a healthier lifestyle. You know. i think that's really where the disruption comes in also. There's never really been a brand that you know was built in the locker room in this energy category right so you know. We're really fortunate that Death net recently featured us as a sports drink. Innovator we're not really a sports drink. We're not a hydration drink or something that you might take Before you want to do some exercise or if you wanna just have a little bit more energy and focus throughout the workday but you wanna have it with clean healthy ingredients and you know the other reason why people might consider us to be somewhat. Disruptors is just because of you know this athlete a model. there really haven't been athletes like saquon. Barkley labonte david kawhi leonard and now kendall tool who's one of the top peleton athletes That are joining a company like ours as shareholders and partners in the business. I think it's just you know shedding some light that there is renovation innovation in the energy category and that's where we could probably be looked at as being somewhat

"saquon barkley" Discussed on Fantasy Focus Football
"I mean people question twitter like thousand percent. I accept that people are panicking. About about ezekiel elliott and tony. Pollard is more more realistic. I'm sorry here's one. That i think is more real because i really believe. There's been so much rhetoric about how zeke had worst case scenario matchup. There's been enough fantasy guidance. would you trade. If you had josh jacobs offered saquon barkley what you do it. Yes really yes. Oh my gosh. No i would not. Wow okay so. This is a good conversation here. I think just jacobs. That's tough defense in baltimore. He he had fourth most yards after contact. Anybody and we well. He ran well. I think you're taking one game. And your overreaction theater. It's not but i'm not reacting. I like for sake wine with saquon this okay. I'm gonna tell you why i've been. I've been anti saquon this here. Tell you is to find your bell. I'm going to tell you. And all of america especially those watching on. Espn fantasies facebook page. And that is this. That saquon barkley is going to have passing game. Usage like both teams have offensive. Line concerns all jokes aside. Josh jacobs is a good runner. He's a good. Nfl runner they. I'm not. I'm not anti josh. Jacobs the nfl player. I am not a legitimately not. He's legitimately talented. Nfl running back but that offensive line. He's not going to be involved in the passing game and that offensive line has some questions and impressive victory but like he bailed you out with the touchdowns like if he didn't get the touchdowns and you're sitting here with like three point four fantasy points or four point four fantasy points. You're like what just happened right. And the game they want and a game in which they put up thirty three point but he did get the touchdown but like you know what those are. Those are hard to count on onto saying. I think saquon gets a more consistent. They both have offensive line issues. I think saquon has more passing game. Involvement has over the second half of the year. we'll have more big playability. And i think ultimately the good i'll say for you guys. Would you take a board bet against a fun. Yeah sure you have josh. Jacobs jacobs rest of the season. Yeah i'll do that you okay. All right i say saquon barkley has more fantasy points. The rest of the year from week to on that josh jacobs i say josh jacobs has more fancy points in saquon. Barkley the rest of the year. Put it on board honestly like i. I'm having a hard time. We just made the bet but the day. Yeah break the tie so by instinct. I wanna lead to find you. Just because she's lying or more importantly she's not not you right. However i have to like i have to have some process involved in my rankings and to cut bait after one week when i had saquon i think it was like twelve spots hiring back rankings feels a little bit knee jerk to me. I know sake on this year. I have zero shares of saquon barkley in any league. That i play in and i'm comfortable with that and i'm is outside my top thirty for week. Two running back rankings against the washington football team on thursday night. I would not be starting saquon barkley this week. That being said we thought the narrative was the same all off season. Right if he gets right saquon barkley can be the fantasy difference maker. Here's one. I think you could possibly maybe get last one here and then maybe get josh shake for nausea harris. Who had a bad game. Yeah that's and also about offensive line. Yeah it's a new york. Second i think nigeria nigeria's played every offensive snap. I will keep dodgy. Minute wouldn't have a new york minute for them. But i'm saying in the new york second times faster people in new york true move things forward. 'cause we got rolling here. Just quickly on the raiders pass catchers. You mentioned brian edwards four catches on five targets for eighty one yards. He's a monitor from me right. Not ready to invest in bryan edwards. Lot of came late and really the entire raiders. Passing game is about one man..

The we expect saquon barkley to play on sunday against the denver broncos. I do not expect him however to be his normal one hundred percent workload self. The giants are being smart with him as they have all off season

"saquon barkley" Discussed on Mornings with Keyshawn, Jorge & LZ
"Nothing much other than the few wins. Just kidding No i think will be a good team Saquon barkley come back. I think that'll help him out Daniel jones has a lot to prove people ready to run him out of new york if he doesn't advanced him and make them look like a team that could compete in division. Dave gettleman saying based on players he signed in picked. I think that they will compete. Though i liked joe judge competitive nature as a head coach. they're probably they're probably nine. I would say probably nine ten win type team. Nine or ten wins really. That's what i think. I think there are anonymous. Say i thought that before the preseason what bothers men okay you could talk about like what you can and can't tell the preseason what bothers me so much though you come into a job if you're gettleman and you know what the issue is. It's the old line year in and year out. It's the offensive line. You say that's your priority. You gotta fix that. That's what you say. The introductory press conference hog. Molly's you gotta fix the line guys. It's not just that. They miss on draft. Picks like they pass up. Better lineman for less reliant in first round flowers and thomas. it's they also don't cutch coach up because like flowers leaves the giants now. He's a starting tackle. he's pretty good. He was no good with them so the line. Both from drafting and development remains a glaring weakness. Jay and i'd love to believe key that they could win ten games and i thought maybe they could before i saw the light and the preseason again yeah only their second. This is on the second unit. Second time around with this office staff. So you gotta give them an opportunity to develop those guys think about it. They fired offense. Allying coach in the middle of the season. Every team in this division has weaknesses for sure. All right so i understand. I've harped about the line for a long time. It is what it is right now. You gotta go out there and do what you gotta do what you got so if i look at the giants of saying okay struggles a little but we still have a lot of offense of talent. Defense is middle of the pack defensively. They got better be good if they got a lot. Better last year. Right okay so eagles. Are we putting him in that conversation. Continue for division not really. We're not sure to upset with jalen hurts. Defense we talk about the dallas cowboys always being a glaring issue. What they bring to the table offensively and in washington. What do they get offensively. We're ryan patrick. So look i think this is a division of questions about a lot of teams and it's about which team can actually grow them. I think the potential there for dallas and for the giants are probably higher. Because i don't see ripest. Patrick really going to another level this year insulate for to washington football up. Look who we have. We have a man now. Ladies and gentlemen who five thirty eight when they were on. Espn once did a thing. Who's the most clutch quarterback in the history of postseason. Eli wanted by their metrics. They invented by so much they redid it. They said no. No one can be this far ahead of everyone else. They actually redid the way they did it. And guess who one ally again but this time. It was close over joe montana and areas the most clutch quarterback according to five thirty eight in the history of football in the playoffs ally. Welcome to the show and thank you for winning. Those two super bowls as the giants fan. Never gotten to do that for you. Personally thanks for coming. Max regret to be grabby on with you guys. You were with a daniel jones as a rookie and we've heard a lot of people think that he can take that step forward this season. What are you expecting from the giants quarterback this year. Yeah i do. I think he will to take that step forward. Just because i think the fact that it is his second year within this offense last year you know a new offense new head coach new offensive coordinator. He's a young quarterback and it's not just him. It's a new left tackle. They were trying to learn. New offense new lou saquon early just a lot of things that were that. Make it tough. I think the fact that you know had a more of an off season this year. you know. Build that relationship with coach geared And they've put some weapons behind them getting sake one back at the offense line would be better in their second year so i i've seen firsthand just how hard daniel works. I know how important it is to own for him to be a successful player. I know he knows this year is a big year form. But he's not that's not going to put pressure on admits that is going to make him Excel and do better. So i'm rooting form And i think he has the work ethic the skill set to make those plays now. He's he's made the mistakes he's gonna learn from those and i think he can go out there and have a big year alive hadn't haven't played in this league for very long time and having success that you had you know the importance of having a dominant running back in a running game. Would you play saquon barkley and week one. If he's healthy. Assume you know. I've always wondered why. Why sit some guy week. One and also their plan. You know week to their full. Go what what's happening and that one or two weeks after his head you know Ten months to recover. So i know the giants will be sparked. And do it's right but if he's rain to play i think you've got to get them out there getting reps and whether he's a starter where you might not get thirty carries week one but you know just to get them in the game. Get his confidence going. Get his feel back going catching the football field and the rush taken a hit. All those things need to happen. A little bit for him Just to get back in the feel of things. So he's such a dominant player They need him To be successful this year running. The football catching the football. And then when he's on the field it changes the game plan Of the defense and they got to prepare for different things and so it should open up other players. And they have the skill set on the outside kinney golladay and sterling shepard seven-day grim and these guys to get them get them the ball. Let them make some plays. Eli speaking of skill. Set you and your brother. Peyton have a skill set which will be on display on monday night football. Which we're all excited to pay attention to the raiders versus the ravens. What kind inside can you provide about. What what would that feel like for you. You and your brother to be on the same talking about football some nazem doing all your lives. Yeah you know it's it'd be fun just the fact that you know i. I don't think i've watched the monday night. Football with my brother in twenty five years since he was probably in high school and And we would watch together and so the fact that he'll be doing it from denver. I'll be doing it from from a house in new jersey. But we'll still be on the couch ethic. That's the feel is what would it be like to watch a football game. Peyton and eli in their living room and this is what you're getting at so it'll be us telling stories..

"Right. We have about two minutes for saquon barkley right now. Listen a march if it's a show called kishan j. will max. I recommend it what he said on that show earlier today. I and he's right about the fact that you don't get you. Don't get the the hit. Do all the things you used to be able to do to make sure guy is ready. But you're never ready coming off a sale. You're never ready until you have that kind of sudden epiphany until you go in there and actually do it so you can wait around. You can wait around the the to tell you booth out of the league and the point being is that when when you're you know physically able to perform and you're ready to perform still mentally. There's still a hurdle you have to get over and you'll never you'll never jump over that hurdle until you get into a game so at some point you gotta play. I hear if saquon is ready and key has made this point like if your health you're healthy you gotta play the issue with me with saquon is like a couple years ago. He obviously wasn't healthy. In the second half the season wouldn't complain. They played them anyway. Maybe it made things worse. Jd play saquon or not. I don't play them week. One i i get. I give them a week i. There's nothing that can hurt. There's nothing to lose well. What if you compete denver if you play them but you're still thinking short term long term key. The thing to me is the. Nfc east might be tight. You may not need a ton of wins to win the division and maybe a game like that does make a difference. You play saquon against denver. Yeah you gotta play a maximum prior to stink marks lead coming on. I told you guys exactly what he was going to say. Because you play a guy like that that that's why we draft any. We didn't drafting the holding off two week three week. Four to see no. We know that he's capable of taking care of himself. We've put into all the test all the drills. All the football acclimated things to show us. He can cut. He can change direction he can stop on a diamond gift. Change and restart backup. We've done all that so now. Guess what we're ready to roll him out against the denver broncos because with him on the field it gives us the best chance to win but key are in the business of winning. We're not in the business of saving players in packaging. Them up is sitting on the bench with each other. I think listen. I think it's interesting because obviously that's a legitimate point of view. Just saturday did not share that. It's not just like you played for a long time and shlaim earth late. And so everyone who plays gonna agree because jeff saturday was saying no and for the reasons that jay was pointing out so even played in the league for a long time one championship played at a high level. Aren't going to see eye to eye north carolina. You do have your use an excellent when you do have a lot invested in saquon. you'd spit the second overall. Pick in the draft on him and he is capable of doing amazing. Things are not believe he's fully healthy. Is that what it is i get. I get worried that maybe he is an i understand. He can go through all the protocol. But i honestly don't know because if you just don't agree with key if what you're saying jay is he's just too valuable. You risk injury on in every game if you're running back as part of the way but if you're saying he's not healthy that's different if he's been padded practices for a while then. I'm concerned but if he just started last week. I'm like okay. That seems like there's been some caution rap. J what do you think what do you think padded practices do for you. I'm talking about contact key. Do nothing you're not taking to the. They're not that she you in practice if you up and that's pretty wait till you hear what one hall of famer thinks.

"Okay the problem with taking a quarterback right off the bat. If you take travis henry okay or where these other dude time running back mccafferty okay. They're gonna get you. They're gonna get you three hundred point those running backs all right if you take mahomes all right. He's going to get you that as well. But you've got sixteen before it comes back to you. Okay and the chances of you having a big time receiver or a good running back. Okay is going to be slim and none all right. You need if you're the door fine. Don't you find that. There are only two or three running backs every year. who really go off. I mean other than that. How many times have you seen running backs. Just flop well. Two years ago mccafferty was my first pick. Okay and that's your dessert okay. He won the championship two years ago. Okay last year. I did what you did. I took homes and i still won the championship. Sal okay but hold on. Hold on john okay. I was drafting into number two slot. Right and i was gonna have nobody basically available to me okay. Moms wouldn't have been there. No good receiver know that running back. So at that point i just i just went ahead and went with it all right dave. That's the heart of my argument. That if i don't take him he won't be there when he gets back. When i when it comes back around to me and i'll get i'll just get a guy you know i'll get i'll just get. I won't get anybody that's gonna completely book. Thank you for the phone call. Bergman is in studio and listening to this bergman. You think i'm being an idiot yes i absolutely do. I was in your league for a little while. So this is why have an idea of why league. I finished in the money every year. Yeah well good for you. But here's the problem you're league has dumb rules. Your rules are gone. They're awful where i think it's fifty yards per for point and it's actually for a point to get into any quarterback in twenty for running and twenty running back. Also you only get four points. Which i think you were talking about before. For every for every touchdown so we get six or they they oh they moved it up because it used to be four but either way. It's then point. Value doesn't work enough in your favor to go after a quarterback. There you need other guys that are going to get you point running back. That's going to get you one hundred yards and a touchdown and same with receivers right. So if the first three picks are christian. Mccaffrey alvin kamara and saquon barkley. Or let's say derrick henry. Let's say derek. The it goes christian mccaffrey. Derrick henry saquon barkley you to use the fourth. Pick on alvin kamara on a saints team. That might stink. When i know mahomes is gonna throw three. I'm with john. it's yes. I do want to go there. What would you do with the fourth pick. I would go with him. I would go with a running back. Or i would go with with stuff wide receiver like if mike. Thomas is coming back healthy. I'd probably go for the first month. So yeah it's finding the right. I don't have the i. I don't have in front of me. Who the best wide receivers. The best running backs are shor yet. Davante adams would be a great one. He's talking about how he's one of the best receivers in the league now. He has rogers with them still. So that's a guy would go. I would go with somebody. That's going to get you points. And weekly one hundred yards and touchdown right but you can find you can find so many other last caller was right. The other last caller was right. You can find other quarterbacks elsewhere. Here's the thing. Our league as you know is so unpredictable that i think it'd be gone by the time i get to the fo. He will be no. You're league. I bet you mahomes goes in the top three to be honest with you. I bet you get stuck with one of these stiffs. You want me to know that you're going to be better off because of it especially in that league want points. Here's jay in torrance. He says people always get this wrong. J what do you think. I honestly think you're being stubborn I mean if you do the math you start to to be running back to and then one the flex right mahomes projected score score one hundred and twenty fantasy points more than aaron rodgers he was accused of. Qb fix so. If you wait on a running back you're losing sixty seventy points on the year from that worming bag position from a projections k. Isn't your argument that there's going to be more than three good running backs. What if it goes through the mass makor you. What if it goes. Mccaffrey henri camara. So i either take saquon barkley coming off of a of a catastrophic injury on a bad giant so you you take galvin cuckoo's projected more. They've saquon and camara. And i got to watch the viking games. Come on man to watch him. But if you wanna i i wanna thank you. Championship with troy. Smith is my quarterback. Had a baller running backs in my flex and the my running back spot and also to greg's point with the right receiver. Have you can i. I mean it depends on how the draft goes. But i'm not taking a stud wide receiver high. I mean in this passing league receiver to have a thousand yards. Eight touchdowns gone shreve played. Believe right so. I think they were.

One of our one of the coolest guests in the history of this show happening sixty third birthday to kevin bacon. Wow back here on the rich man Okay so bill. Barnwell is like the jets. Would trade zach wilson for aaron rodgers right now because we just went through conversation senior. Nfl writer about you know which teams would jettison. Their plans. Not quarterback plans for aaron rodgers. Right now because yeah you want to swap out like you know you want to swap out A rookie quarterback for aaron rodgers. Of course you'll do that. Obviously but if you just chosen him second overall and you've made a whole big to do out of it like do you think the forty niners trade trae lance for aaron rodgers right now after everything they trade everything up because you've given up multiple first round picks in the future for aaron rodgers which is what it would take to get them to which is what it would take to get him which is probably what they would have done to get him if he was on the market when they made the trade for trae lance. But that would never happen. The niners would never the packers would never say uncle and trade him to the forty niners but would they just would they because we're just removing the only reality is the plans part not like what it would take to make the whatever jet. I mind trick the obi-wan-kenobi They'd have to pull on brian. Gouda koonce these are the draft picks. You're looking for and he'd say yes to sending him to green to san francisco. Wish it never happened. I don't know if the jets would do it or should do it jet fans. He's he he talked about jets fans who he knows them. I know them. I know one right here. And i know tons of jets fans. Who would absolutely say we've already taken green bay's disgruntled quarterback. Oh come i'm telling you they we talk farve straight from green bay so we're gonna take the current version of the farm. Who's now on the role of five. Take him same number of mvp's same number of champs number years member of years passions. We already did that. How great did that work out. There's now there's extenuating circumstances than not the same human being a little snake and that and that and that farve was nearing the end of a career and did not look like rogers just appeared on. Tv and montana. Right right that you would but far did have a season with minnesota after the jets coughed him up. Damn near one super bowl may almost made it if he didn't throw it across the middle to new orleans. Nfc championship game. There definitely jets fans like we already taken that guy from green bay screw it. Let's go with the kid in joe. Douglas we trust. There's no question in my mind. The question is am i that jet fan and right now. The jets aren't ready to win. In what ever you think. Even if you think they might be with aaron rodgers if rogers playing till he's forty four and doing the brady thing tilles forty four. Then you have to do it beat after doing. That's the question. Is he gonna play like brady to lease forty. Four z. Wanna play tilles forty four. 'cause that mu trading for somebody would six high functioning quality goat years remaining. You're getting six left. But i think you hit on the big question. It's the want as the desire there. Does he want to play that. I i don't know. I'd i'd need to know the answer. That question seems like brady. That's all he wants to do. Is point foot correct. Maybe rogers the same way. It's just a different personality tourism. Where it on his sleeve. Ar twelve system or anything like that. you know. also don't forget brady weiqi said at the in in the match in in one of the best soliloquies that i've heard from him. He's a late bloomer. Aaron rodgers was a late drafty but he could have easily been the first overall pick in the draft. The rogers also junior college. I did go. I know that he was late. Bloomer in that respect yes that's correct in that respect but still in terms of the. Nfl hit oh. We always talk about rogers. You waited forever in that draft room and that that created a fire him and brady's like hold my You know avocado tequila. Rogers also three years to start radiated hutu right away at one. Oh man so. If you didn't that guy yeah you get them but will he turn into breeze which is like hits forty one and he can't on as a problem doesn't look the same anymore. Oh is that the ultimate conundrum again. I think this is gonna come back from the brink and and in rajasa a play for the packers issue somehow anyway and then we'll kick that can down the road for your and or to see how it goes down the eleventh anniversary of the decision. Tj jefferson has some thoughts on that. That'll be fun next. Giants traded right giant straight out. Daniel jones for him. The washington football team will take him inning heartbeat the philadelphia eagles who take him any heartbeat. I think most teams in the week. Probably you know what. Let's literally talk about it. You know the steelers were take him any heartbeat The ravens would not the bengals. Bengals would not. I think they're going to stick with joe borough even with his surgically repaired. Knee there bright. I know barnwell said the bills would have a conversation. I don't think so all now. Nothing's rap guy. He was runner up. Challenge the guy. That's it and the same way that i'm mike. Charges have a conversation about justin. Herbert and get rogers in there. No chance you do that. Trade in a heartbeat. The packers would do that truth in a heartbeat. Packers would say yeah. I phone call. If they're saying we're going to trade aaron rodgers. Would you tom to lesko. Yeah you ought them. Because that's the quarterback we'll take back and then joe jordan level be like thanks for the thanks of the reps. Where does he honestly eagles. No i know that fell. Falcons would do that in a heartbeat. The panthers would do that. Any heartbeat colts. I think.

NFL WEEK 3: Our official predictions for who wins this weekend
"So. I gave talk about. Obviously a game that still sits our my mind from last week. The Atlanta Falcons go our land Alcan's play. The Chicago bears this week. Chicago was to know the Falcons are all into one o'clock on Fox. Obviously, the Falcons. About that the shambles, the the. Disgusting performance that we saw last week losing a game that they should've never lost Dallas cowboys now going to Chicago bears team defensively is still one of the better teams in the NFL. Immature bisky while not playing. Ultra, great. Still playing well enough for them to win. If, you look at this game, you would think the Falcons will win because one of the Falcons do have going for them as they do have one of the better offenses in felt even to the two weeks you've seen that. And they're going to a bears team that. Can Be, offered to challenge America can be limited. So the Falcons you put up points. The game should be over now the falcons defense does have some questions, but I do think they would put voices should be enough to create distance in the bears it'd be able to pick up the whip. Obviously the bears are companies just gave a lot of confidence. As they should. To An older, start the season I mean. I saw some Falcon fans tweet about it. They don't necessarily want the T. Blues remember they're only to the of this dot over by any stretch. But people really what? Dad Queen Gone. And so. It's Cadillac Party. Wants. To lose. The ship but the Chicago bears going to three eight. Oh probably be one of the young shockers of this early season. I'm going to very hastily picked the Falcons to win this game. I think they they are the better team. Now whether they actually leads to the results on Sunday we'll see but I'm going to go the Falcons to win this game as they are the better team to me. I, Think Matt Ryan will continue his great start to the season. I think are often will continue to click. There are questions of Julio. Jones will play this Sunday I. Think he will. He usually plays to injuries when his Julio not move something now he did. Have a setback in practice but. You know I think. He should be able to go. and honestly, if he didn't would be great for my fantasy team either but I got kindergarten if I need to step up or racial gauge. So yeah. But yeah with the Falcons. Next game forty niners, giants, I've this Games interesting. Remember last week. The point is playing metlife stadium loss Garoppolo MOATS are. Bosa, Thomas they lost a lot of guys last week. And the. Giants team who? Looks like they'll probably be at the bottom of the barrel the NFC east. Especially after losing saquon Barkley. For? The. season. When I players were scared to play at metlife stadium because they felt like the the stadium turf in and everything was the reason for a lot of those injuries that they had last week when they played the jets. Now. I it's. It's interesting to see what it's GONNA be 'cause they're playing a backup quarterback backup running backs they got sued offensive Lineman. I still don't have Richard Sherman. You have a lot of injuries. and. So this may be a winnable game for the giants I mean, you don't really know what to expect from the forty niners this week. So it'd be you say here they of Jimmy, Garoppolo at least played to me I. Think you would be like, okay for eight hours I think we'd still be able to win, but we don't know how good the Ford back for Norwich backup QB may play. I mean, luckily, the void ours have a lot of defensive talent still. So it's not like older pleaded they have nobody but. It. Isn't as comfortable as A. But I would still in my right mind, go with the four years to win the game.

New York Giants Confirm Saquon Barkley Tore ACL, Out For The Season
"There are terrible injuries all over the NFL yesterday alone. Nick. Bosa. From the niners Saquon Barkley from the giants both suffered torn ACL statistics show that through two weeks nfl record twice as many significant injuries as last year. It's actually at least six players suffered a torn acl including just recently Seattle Seahawks linebacker Bruce Irvin Eleven, injuries to starters in the one o'clock games alone John Do you think these injuries have something to do with the fact that there were no preseason games. Well. For example, the Rams don't play any of their starters in preseason games I think is in the spirit of your question i. think it has something to do with no camp no real camp they kind of shotgun training camp and I don't know how you could make the opposite argument that it has nothing to do with it. I wouldn't tied to preseason games what I would do it to the fact that there was very little tackling. Yes in. The game started and the other thing is I know Kyle Shanahan the niners felt like the field wasn't ready like the field I think he played in the meadowlands and he's got play there again next week because he played the jets and now he's GonNa, play the giants. Players on both teams going down. So I don't necessarily think that the facilities were one hundred percent prepared either I think again, I think the spirit of your question is the fact that they fast tracked everything and started the season. Because of Covid is that having any do with the injuries I don't know how you could say it doesn't I think it has to yeah. I mean I I completely agree I mean between training camp and preseason games where guys at least get a sense for what they get a reminder of what getting hit is like. I think they're I think they would be better off. It is an extraordinary number of injuries and none worse than Christian McCaffrey who's gone for four to six weeks and his the stalwart of my fantasy team just loyal to John Ireland how about? Yeah. I cleaned your clock thinking Matt Ryan. But. How about how about Saquon out for the year? Yeah. Entirely out for the year Bosa gone for the with a tornado. And that means that the giants I. It might be a race between the giants and the jets who the worst team football is. The whole new. York City area has to just garbage football teams because the jets are a mess and now the giants have no running game. So it's going to have it's going to have after-effects. All these

LeBron James Debuts 'The Glass Helmet Project' Featuring Saquon Barkley
"Couple of weeks ago. I upset the l._b._a. Community the bron- apologised colleges community lebron james suffers from fame and social media diction the aftermath lebrons. Hey look at me antics at his son's a you game i said fame as an addiction more dangerous than cocaine nate burleson and other members of the community rushed to the internet to preach to the world lebron. That is a good daddy. They take care of his kids. Well at the risk of upsetting. I'm going to once again point out that the latest of the latest it is example of the negative side effects of lebron's addiction to fame the thirty four year old basketball star claims to have identified football's most unique challenge and further claims to have invented solution class helmets players being assigned a helmet and do not have no voice and no one knows who they are because of the helmet and no one ever truly know on that there's actually a person inside there and not taking that seriously they will be seen by uninterrupted did and this right here is the farce glass helmet and meaning behind it is all these great athletes athletes that play our wonderful sport football will be heard and we'll be saying because they are at the end of the day they are people as well. They take these helmets off and they are people when they have the helmets on as well so when i first saw this. I thought it was a comedy skit. Get thought lebron was having some fun and then i watched a four minute youtube video titled the glass helmet project tackling one of football's most unique challenges. Oh sweet jesus. I think the broader series the bronze side kick maverick carter some nondescript former n._f._l. Player andrew hawkins and an artist artist are pushing the notion that glass helmets or symbolic glass helmets would liberate and humanize oppressed n._f._l. Players i can walk down the street. Be the star football team and nobody knows who i am because people don't recognize you. Ah as players were kind of looked at as warriors or gladiators right and gladiators aren't people who you remember their name take a lot of people when it comes to football they cheer for the laundry in the sense that they refer their teams more than having a direct connection with the players hopefully one day we'll see glass is home is on the

NBA Draft 2019: Latest 1st-Round Order, Predictions
"And ladies and gentlemen, we have a new mock draft out Mel kiper Jr's three point. Oh is here with us. And we are looking forward to the draft. Mel will join us in just about an hour to talk about the new mock draft. But there have been some changes in the draft specifically one less quarterback. Now going in the first round then in mel's two point oh mock draft. So we have four in the two point oh mock draft with Daniel Jones from Duke rounding out of the last pick of the draft to the patriots in the first round of thirty two. There are only three quarterbacks now in the first round, according to mel's latest mock. And obviously a retirement might be a big reason why and the quarterbacks have changed as well. Right. As far as where they're they're going. Well, Cuyler he still has Tyler going number one derozan. Well in his last draft Cuyler going number thirteen to the dolphins. So now and this draft he hasn't going number one. He had. Dwayne Haskins going number six at a giant Kyle Murray. Going number thirteen to the to the dolphins. Drew lock going fifteen to the Redskins and Daniel Jones going thirty two to the patriots. So as you mentioned Daniel Jones now out of the first round, according to the latest mock draft by Mel kiper, just three quarterbacks Murray number one. The main says Dwayne Haskins at number six, and you start to hear reports that the giants may go defense was six and then was seventeen go quarterback. But right now twain Haskins at six and then drew lock sitting there at number thirteen for the dolphins. Does the only three quarterbacks in this latest first round. Yeah. Going to be very interesting because we know what the giants listen one thing. Dave Gettleman has made very clear he does not feel beholden to tell us his plan. And so I don't feel overly beholden to believe. A lot of what we're hearing coming out of the giants can't because if you've got a guy who's basic messages trust me, I got this. Well, then we understand he doesn't feel like he has to tell us the truth. So as we hear these things. Coming out. We also understand this time of year is about deception to an extent it's trying to manipulate the draft order trying to manipulate the opinions of certain players. So that you can try and put yourself in the best position to get the guys you ultimately want. So it makes it difficult to try and read the tea leaves it is although I have to say on cattlemans behalf. He said all of last spring saquon Barkley is a generational talent with the second overall pick. And that's where he went. Look, I think we all agreed. There has to be a quarterback in the giants future. Whether it's at six or seventeen trade now Cleveland, but it would not surprise me in the least if Dave Gettleman waited until the second or third round to take a quarterback this Dave Gettleman, he created that created, but he he made the term a more of a vernacular in the NFL draft hog molly's when he was the GM of the Carolina Panthers. He loves the big guys to hog mollies. And let's be honest. This draft is going to be decided outside of Kyla Murray. More than anything else about the big defensive lineman in this draft. The hog Molly is on the defensive side of the ball. So depending on your draft grades for your quarterbacks you could take one of those at six and then a quarterback at seventeen it all depends again on your on your draft great. If twain Haskins is highest on the board and draft grades. You don't pass that up. If you have a Dwayne Haskins drew lock. And whatever other quarterback equal in grades. You know, maybe use that seventeen pick baby can trade it up somehow to get one of those guys as I said, this always comes down to grades. Do. You have a choice amongst grades. Are you close enough in quarterbacks where if you don't get one you try and get the other? But we'll see we'll see, you know, one of the biggest changes in from the last two this for Mel was they had the patriots taken Daniel Jones a quarterback, and this one I serve Smith junior the tight end from Alabama going, and that would not be shocking at all you have really three out of the top tight end Hopkinson the kid from Iowa teammate, Noah Fant, and then Smith junior all three likely to go in the first round a three first round tight end to on the same team come on. And what would that tell you as we saw? The patriots jump into the first round and take a running back and Sony Michelle at the end of that. And now to see in the next year three tight ends going. We've talked about this. However, you want to split it. Last year were Quinton Nelson. Went in the top ten in the draft as an offensive guard. We saw roquan Smith going the top ten as a middle linebacker. The middle of the field is worthy. NFL is being built right now. And other teams are starting to catch up to what the patriots have done for years. The way that we've seen teams export that specific area and three tight ends in the first round would hammer that home not denying that. They are guys that are certainly probably more talented than usual tight end groups. We're used to seeing but it's also about value. It's why you see running back taking it to overall by the giants last year. I mean, the other thing is I think they're more interior linemen in this first round then quarterbacks right? Like, a not tackles guards and centers. There are more of those according to males latest mock than there are actual quarterbacks being taken which would be very unusual. So the top five in this new draft that Mel kiper put out is Kylie Murray. Number one of the cardinals Nick both the D N number two to the forty Niners. Number three. Josh Allen the outside backing backer pass rusher going to the jet number four Cornyn Williams. To the raiders and number five guy making a pretty big jump. Devon white going to Tampa Bay at five in the last mock draft he was number eleven to the Bengals now in mel's draft. He is sitting at number five number six twain Haskins seven Joon Taylor. The offense attack from Florida going to Jacksonville sweat, the D N going to the lions at eight Sean, Gary the D N going into the bills from Michigan and TJ Hopkinson. The tight end going to the Broncos at number ten. Here's here's what I wanted to talk to Mel about and one of the issues that I have laid on me big fella with with this draft comes, you know, some some point and one of them is there are few prospects in new first round projection who are making their debuts because of their combine performances. There are four guys who have jumped into mel's first round who weren't out there before again based on the combine combine performances. I don't understand that. I don't I don't understand that. If you wanna say. You looked at the combine to go back and look at tape of them. But to say, they're combine performance jumped them up that doesn't compute to me. Well, I think that's I think that's the assumption though, is because of their performance you went back and look and that. That's fair. That's why I want to ask them. How did this? Make you go back and study them more. Because if you're just basing things off the combine I got a real issue with that. Yeah. I I don't think you would do that or teams. But at the same time, you look at the positions of the majority of the players that would be involved in that. And I think this could be true for teams as well. It's interior offense. It is right. Three interior offensive linemen Terry McLaren the wide receiver, but when it comes to interior offensive lineman. You wanna talk about an area where the scouting grossly lags behind to actually great and overall draft. It's a difficult area for a lot of people to see and understand because you don't have the benefit of a lot of stats. You don't have the benefit of even the combine members necessarily always translating to production. So when those guys go and they paying and they flag in the model somewhere for what they do at the combine. And then you go back and spend some more time looking at a guy like Lindstrom who wasn't going to be a big name. He wasn't like, you know, Gary bradberry from North Carolina State won the Remington award this year. Like that guy was a stud Boston College was a middling. Okay. ACC team this year. So Lindstrom wasn't getting the credit. He deserved even being as good as he is. So you go back now, and even these NFL teams, maybe we're late to the party on some of these guys all of a sudden start giving them an extra. That's why I want to ask I just wanna make sure with Mel that because I'm just reading from the combine performance, and again, let's put a name. To those you mentioned McLaren the wide receiver who is one of the others. Chris Lynch reminder, you just mentioned from Boston College now. Number twenty one to Seattle Eric McCoy interior linemen going number twenty two to Baltimore. Right and the Garrett bradberry. The Senator from North Carolina State who is you mentioned one the Remington award is the best center in the country number thirty one to the LA Rams where they have an aging center, and John John Sullivan. And that was that was one of the things have been saying for the Rams the last couple of years that dynasties been built on the interior. If you land a guy like that good, Lord or you winning out it is. So we'll see how that plays out. Now, the one thing that I find interesting he he has drew lock the third quarterback Mel dozen his latest mock going thirteen in Miami. I'm telling you don't take out Denver at ten in Cincinnati of eleven in play for quarterbacks. I mean. Yeah. Denver made the play for Joe flacco. But John Elway has messed this up a couple of times with all due respect. I mean, that's just outside of getting Peyton Manning. He has not figured out the quarterback spot there at ten they might be in play for quarterback. And you have Andy Dalton with his situation with the Bengals and his contract situation. I, you know, I think that there's a really good chance that they could be in play with a quarterback there, by the way, by the way, Mel kiper Jr's mock draft not the biggest item related to the draft this week. That will have news for you guys. What more on that coming up later? This week

Quicken Loans apply simply understand fully mortgage confidently. We'll continue our NFL conversation. Sam Monson pro football focus lead analyst Sam how you doing? What's going on buddy? I'm doing great excellent. You know, it's funny this week. I heard I don't know if you heard this. But. Greg Williams who to me. Why don't really work in Cleveland locally in the week? And I have no desire for Greg Williams to remain the long-term coach Gregg Williams. I think he's about as old school is old school gets and he referred to some advanced analytics this week. And I almost was brought to tears Sam because well, I think I think that all sports need to have a good balance between old school scouting and new school analytics you'll so many old school football guys are so hesitant look where we are in baseball. Now. Right. The sport is completely run. Everybody has an analytics department in basketball and football is dragging their feet a little bit more in some organizations, but the here an old school coach like Greg Williams referred to some advanced analytics. That was that was wild for me to hear it must have. I don't know if you heard it. But it probably would've made you happy. If you did. Yeah. I think you're right football is behind baseball. And how that kind of stuff is gone, but everybody understands that it can help you how you present it to all of these people know, so head coaches are often the last guy to get on board. But it's because you need to present it to them in in the right away. Now, there's a ton of ways that say the PS database can help is those guys. But if you come to them initially where you know, something they don't wanna hear they're not going to buy. But if you immediately show them something, you know, a fancy pretty grasp the chosen exactly what they've been saying for years, suddenly they're all on board. So I think a lot of teams the league you're just starting to sort of see this time where the analytics guys or people that have been using the stuff within the Bill. Building for years are finally starting to figure out how to present it to coaches added presented to general manager is and you know, the guys bad again in front of the media. And that's when you're starting to see this filter out. I think it's been used a lot within the building for years already. But now we're starting to see those guys use it on a daily basis and get the headline stuff sent to them in a way that they're they're much more comfortable with gesturing at an and actually taking it on board. We're talking with Sam Monson pro football focus lead analysts Sam. Baker Mayfield has had a tremendous season. As a rookie as put up some big old school numbers if you will. But when when you went from a pro football, focus perspective when you guys run the numbers on what he's done. How would how does he great out compared to some other rookie quarterback's of the past? Yeah. I think you do need to go to quarterbacks with a pass because he hadn't shoulders above any other rookie season right now. He's a top ten grade quarterback in the NFL. He's tense overall. Just one physician behind Russell Wilson. So you're already talking about it really really well graded player right off the five. And obviously pro football focus was very high invade your Mayfield coming out were the guy is the winter by for him saying that he was the best prospect in this draft in it really wasn't close to the next guy. I think so far. That's that is being born out. We have seen better performances in the past rookies. I think that twenty twelve season was a pretty incredible year for rookie performances. Obviously it didn't last because RG three in particular had a phenomenal season that year, and then tours and really hasn't been the same player since. But you know, Baker Mayfield is looking as good as we've seen any rookie quarterback. Look probably dating by twenty twelve season. We're seeing some really impressive play from him. And I think his play generally has been better than even the statistics suggest because you had one of the highest rates in the NFL right five and drop rates. And unlike most of the times when a receiver drops the ball, it's an incomplete passes. It's not doing that much damage to your passer rating, or whatever but Baker mayfield's have multiple assets that have been hit his receivers and my hands and ended up as interceptions. So those are taking a sledgehammer to operating over the course of the season. It's ninety three. Point four right now. And this is a season where passing is exploded operating ninety three point four is nice great at the moment. But it's his performance has been way better than that. We're talking with Sam Monson lead analyst pro football, focus Sam, let's talk about another rookie and that saquon Barkley who probably be battling Baker Mayfield for rookie of the year. From an offensive standpoint. There's been other good rookie running back but saquon Barkley make over two thousand total yards this season. How does he compare to Todd Gurley Leonard four nets and some of the other big rookie seasons from running backs? Yeah. I mean saquon Barkley just moved into first edition CFS running back rankings. He's the the number one guy right now through the through part of the season. He's been incredible. He's been everything that everybody who was championing him saying he would be coming out. I think he's been better than we thought. He might be there. The idea that he was a perfect running back prospect that don't think really holds up work holes in his game in particular. This tendency to to be a bit. Reggie Bush in terms of wanting to balance everything outside to look for that clay, but he's gotten a lot better in his first year at not doing that at taking ugly yards when they're there. And that's all there to be had. And it's still maximizing goes explosive plays getting huge games. Those are there. So he has been fantastic. I think again he's been as good as any rookie running back the receipt for a number of years. Really? He's I guess he's played as well. As Alvin Kamara did last year as a rookie on he's done more fulltime base. So he already has you know, two hundred more snaps than Kamara managed all last season playing that same kind of rate is Amari Cooper. Has memorial Cooper's play been much better. Or is just a the players around him made him much better. I think it's a bit of both, you know, playing wide receiver it so difficult to play. Well, if the ball isn't coming in your direction off the ball is coming in your direction in attachable manner. Having you can do about it. There's only so much fancy route running against air. You can do if the ball isn't coming your way. So I think we're seeing Amari Cooper was always a quality route runaround player that would get consistently open. And now we're seeing what happens when you target that guy. He's still a very good player and I play put up big numbers. And obviously, that's that's meaning that his greatest better because he's being given the ball and that talent is being maximized. So you know, I think that that was always there that that talent that play was always inherited his game. Even in Oakland. The raiders just weren't making use of it. We're talking with Sam Monson pro football focus lead analyst. Sam. I know you guys today had an article about projecting Cuyler Murray's pro potential. I'm curious because obviously he's a top ten pick and major league baseball. He's giving compared to Ricky Henderson. He signed a four and a half million dollar bonus. There would have to give it back obviously at a even a better year than Baker Mayfield did this past year in college, which is hard to believe. But obviously, you know, people make a thing about the thing about Baker mayfield's hike, which I thought was over rated. But obviously calamari isn't even close those big as as Baker Mayfield. A what is his potential d do you think he could be a good NFL quarterback? I think he could be, you know, you're right people that the highest the big question Mark because people did make an issue out of Baker Mayfield. Tighter on Baker Mayfield is short for an NFL quarterback. But not, you know, it's not unprecedented. We've seen quarterbacks Baker Mayfield type successful in the past. They're not obviously, not as many as there are as you know, six with three quarterbacks, but those guys have existed and they've been good in the past. I don't I don't know that we've ever seen quarterback that is Kyla Murray's Hite house significant success at the end up, right? You know, he is going to be when we get the official number on him. If it ever gets that far he's going to be significantly shorter than even a guy like Russell Wilson. And you would be in legitimately uncharted territory. When it comes to that. Now, if you're going to do that, you have to be there has to be something else to say, well, okay. That's not going to be a problem because of this and his grading has been incredible. His is great this season at Oklahoma has been basically everything is as as good. As Baker mayfield's grade had been on that was the best we've ever seen from a quarterback, right? The best seasons we've ever seen at college with one of his own. So he has a level of the best play. We've ever seen coming out of college from a college quarterback. And we've been doing this going back to two thousand fourteen but we've seen some pretty good quarterbacks over that's fine. You know, we went back, and we also graded James Winstons freshman seasons. We have got Carson Wentz you got Jared Goff. We've got right. And they got all these guys and Carl Amari stacks up to those guys. Sorry.

Saquon Barkley leads Giants' destruction of Redskins
"Game here we can make quick because it was ugly saquon Barkley and the giants crushed the Redskins forty two sixteen all those points came late in the game for the Redskins. No Odell in this games to find you. He was ruled on Saturday surprise. Yeah. Still bizarre. You know, we heard about it. I on Friday when he was limited in practice, and it sounded like there wasn't a ton of information around it. But sounded like not a lot of concern. Either though exactly because they didn't end up on the pre-game injury report that's filed on Friday evenings. And then on. Saturday. We found out ruled out for the music fan. So it's hard to know because of the bizarre way in which it came about just how serious this is. But so stay tuned all they were saquon Barkley fourteen for one seventy on the ground with a touchdown for the Redskins. Mark Sanchez has been benched in favor of Josh Johnson. I think was quarterback three on the week, which is just ridiculous. And then he watched Madden to get to know his teammates. Quote from the post game yet. We're just like, well, he honestly like he was signed last week. When Cole McCoy was injured on Monday night a week ago. They needed a backup quarterback, Mark Sanchez. And so they signed Joshua Johnson have been with a team that less than a week. And he ends he's going to end the week as a top five fantasy quarterback a guy that wasn't on a NFL roster seven days ago, and I mean and obviously start this game. I'll listen a lot of it was just to be very clear about this much of it was in junk time against backups in very soft cover. It was of course. Total jumped pavers down funny. We're not saying like in case it was like injust Johnson. Ben name the star. But in case, you're like, hey, Josh the thing Josh Johnson's not a thing. It's a brutal offensive line. It's a law season for the Redskins. It's just a a look I think they're now at and we'll see we made it to week fourteen before Jordan Reed got hurts to he did he did he he made it over on the over under of wind. Jordan reed. Mike. Misery yet but foot injury. Obviously in a lot of pain had to be held back to the locker room. I would not be planning on Jordan Reed being available at the moment. I believe the Redskins have eighteen guys on injured reserve. We'll see if Jordan Reed get shut down for the year. It certainly would make Vernon Davis did Vernon Davis. Make your way beyond the waiver wire com, which you'll be out later on this afternoon. Nothing there's a lot of hoping that Washington offense. But there are also again, very few tight ends that you can trust. So Vernon Davis will be on the waiver wire column. Kyle. We have all racked our brains for the only other tight end besides George kit with two seventy plus yards receiving three three my best. Guess was Vernon Davis. Matthew, who's your best?

The Giants Actually Won A Game
"About the New York football giants. They actually won a game night. Football matchup against two powerhouses the giants and the forty Niners. Look pretty good about it around the pocket. Odell Beckham in the end zone Beckham had two touchdowns saquon Barkley look good look at this past there in the same. Twice in a row. Saw that one Jalen is there a little civil dark cloud. That is the giants season the silver lining is the person that ally shaking his hand. Nobody knows who it is Nick Mullins because the San Francisco forty Niners are not a good football team. They're not feel from my brother Richard Sherman. Having a play with this team this. This basically vying for top pig. The giants are talented group. Ofensive Lii in their perfect example of trying to build your squat through the skill players. Isn't probably the smartest way. Look dare division. If you were going to talk about who has the most talent just sheer touto question that USA giants have more than Philly, Washington and Dallas maybe combine. But why the last couple of seasons have all of those teams been better than them. Because he's not that good. The line is not that good the substance the lines, correct? And so for that. I'm not surprised clearly that Dale TD's saquon Barkley terrific sterling shepherd caught the game winning touchdown. But we know what's going to happen. Right. You know, it's gonna happen. Right. Cannot cannot break. Some news breaks news right now, what's gonna happen here. As a news happened bench. La. For the guy that ran over the cop. Big bench. Eli ran away just in want to do it. Because that guy had just gotten trouble have been playing attention for national media consumption. He's been in trouble with the law. Couple of times for some reason. We just don't talk about it. So I think later in this year sued they dream of Alah struggling he my stomach coming out of the tunnel. They bench. We know what's going to happen. This is last year allies last year in the National Football League. No, he's a man play as long as he wants to play in a different uniform next year. Yes, if he wants to play, well, I know a team that needs a quarterback Buffalo
The Stephen A. Smith Show
New York Giants, Manning And Saquon Barkley discussed on The Stephen A. Smith Show
"Giant steak just when you thinking like that what are you? Discover you discovered at the New York Giants still have a little bit of life in them. If that's how you wanna look at it ally. Manning leads a game winning drive got back pages talking about, you know, the era that change in ariz- from and moving beyond ally. We may have spoken to soon. Allies still hasn't blah, blah, blah lays man for less than two hundred yards. He threw for less than two hundred yards. This is see See it. it. We're going to be honest about it. That's what we gotta do pay attention to this kind of stuff. He manning did not look bad last night. But in knock anybody socks off ally. Manning. Completed nineteen thirty one passes for a hundred and eighty eight yards three touchdowns. Not an exception. Only sacked wants. And you just look down a list. And what does this come down to this comes down to a question? And as only a two part ants, what you happy about what you saw from Ila Odell Beckham junior saquon Barkley and a crew or do you find yourself sitting here today thinking that the New York Giants are the biggest idiots the NFL has seen in quite some time. Because the reality is that if you want the number one overall pick in the NFL draft, you don't go out there. Having just one win on the season and beat a one win eight you're battling for purgatory. You're battling for up two. You're bad. You're battling to be recognized as the very worst there by being the team that needs the most help. That's why you would get the number one overall pick this supposed to be doing. Now, some people say, well, Stephen they wanted as opposed to do I agree with that. What are you supposed to do if L Beckham was targeted eleven? By the way, and all you have four receptors seventy three yards albeit touchdowns, but Beckham Julia and saquon Barkley out on a field, you should be trying to win football games. However, if you wanna lose on purpose why you plan any of them. Why don't you bitch alive down? Why are you holding a traffic violation against kala? Let backup quarterback who the hell cares. Now granted I'm not advocated that he was right to break the laws certainly not to try run over police. That's just quite stupid. But let's be really what trying to run over to police lays gentlemen, I'm very very familiar with this route that he takes I'd take that route all the time four ninety five and sometimes they barricade or ward off these certain roles that allow you to get to destinations quicker, but take your leeann rush hour traffic, personally speaking, I think the letter tobacco quarterback has gotten a bad rep.

Ohio State football has everything at stake against Penn State
"We got Penn State Ohio State this weekend, and it's a playoff game. It is, what do you expect? Well, and to your point, people always like expand the playoff and go to eighteen sixteen teams. This is a playoff game. It is. This is an elimination game. I'm going to be at another one up. These are the games and we talk about this game on this show because with that playoff predicted that tells you even if you were just an essay. Person, and that's all you watch. You don't watch any game outside of the conference. You need to keep an eye on this one because you're going to see more than likely one of these teams because listen that play predictor at Penn State where to win this game this weekend, they're the ones that are gonna take over that number four spot. I expect shootout and going into the year, honestly before I was there and personal Saturday, I'm might not have believed that Ohio State could keep up in a shootout with trace McSorley and Penn State. Dwayne Haskins is, is the truth may legit, oh, he's the truth. And there's a reason Joe boroughs at LSU. Yeah, Joe borough is at LSU because Dwayne Haskins beat him out for the Ohio State quarterback job. They engaged in quite a battle during the spring Haskins ultimately wins at I in Happy Valley all day Tuesday. I'm doing a big feature for sportscenter on Saturday on one of a Penn State's offense of linemen. And I talked spoke extensively with James Franklin who you see here, not only for that feature but about his team. He loves his team. They lost a ton offensively. This saquon Barkley to the New York Giants day. Sean Hamilton was one. Of the best and most underrated wide receivers in the country. Last year they got bowlers. So you would expect, okay, they're going to fall off authentically, oh, Appalachian state gave them all they could handle in week one that was actually a great learning experience with this group. So they have resorted all trace McSorley does is win. He is tougher than woodpecker lips man. And I think this one is going to be attract me. I agree with you, and it's going to be so fun to what I learned this from you that trace McSorley won four consecutive state championship, all he does win. All it does all that that young man does is win football games

Dak Prescott of Dallas Cowboys rises to 'challenge' vs. New York Giants
"New York following Sunday night football tonight. Dallas Cowboys in the New York Giants both teams coming in at all in one both teams trying to avoid that dreaded Owen to Mark. And both teams coming in after being bit offense challenged in week number one. How would this one play out? Well for the Dallas Cowboys who struggled to score points against Carolina Panthers last week. It was not going to be the same this week. In fact, it took them only three plays on their opening drive to show everyone that this was going to be a little bit different breast got under center. Play action sets the throw look at the table in Austin. Got it. Sixty four Prescott to the speed. Tabloids on top six. So a six nothing lead. Just three plays in a sixty four yard touchdown pass. And a quick just a little bit more than ninety seconds as it turned out before the Dallas Cowboys had the lead in this game. Extra point was good. They had themselves a seven nothing lead. The offense wasn't really necessarily the story for Dallas in the first half. It was more the defense. They shut the giants down. The giants were unable to do anything offensively throughout the entire of that first half. Dallas added a field goal. Also in that first quarter at the end of a sixty four yard drive and had a ten nothing lead after one. It was the same ten nothing lead. If they ended up having at halftime in this ball game James came out with the opening kick off the second half and tried to get something going offense after putting up to seventy nine yards in the first half. However, Dallas Dallas's defense which had given manning fits in the first half continue to do so right after halftime Barkley motion to the right side of manning who creep in towards the line now back up clapping for the snap raising. His right foot off gets the shotgun. Snap. Head high pressure companies loose out. It's coming up by the Cowboys taco Charlton scoops up the loose ball after Damian Wilson. Manning up. Albouy sack this one results in a turnover and Dallas has the football inside the giant thirty. Turned out. The Brett Maher would hit a second field goal as a result of that turnover. His second of the game a twenty nine yard and few minutes into the third quarter was thirteen to nothing Dallas on top giant struggled to get offense going as we said all night long, the main safety valve rely was saquon Barkley as it turned out do end up getting targeted sixteen times out of the backfield at fourteen catches for eighty yards on the night. He's part of the drive New York put together ultimately to get into Dallas territory and their deepest penetration offensively to that point of the nine eleven plays. A sixty six yard drive. It took more than six minutes off the clock as it turned out. We're not going to be able to get into the end zone, but other grocers hit a twenty eight yard field goal to get New York on the board with four and a half left to go in the third. It was thirteen to three game. That's when the Dallas Cowboys not long thereafter, put together with turned out to be the drive of the game as they began at their own eighteen yard line this coming late. I should say. Early in the fourth quarter early in that fourth quarters. They took over the eighteen yard line. The giants were looking to hold defensively down just by nine. But Dallas was methodical. Dallas was strong running the football. Dallas was also led by their quarterback. Dak Prescott downfield in a fourteen play drive that took almost eight and a half minutes remaining in the game off the clock. And it was their bread truck. Ultimately put this game away third and two at the six Prescott the gift to Ezekiel Elliott breaks, the tackle. Elliot. Touchdown. Tackle up. Corinne, Mark on the right side left. Dovan for six nineteen to three Dallas what five forty five to go. Not a huge statistical game Zeke. You'll Elliott seventeen carries. Seventy eight yards with that touchdown as we said, basically put it away with by forty five left to go. The extra point made it at twenty two three ballgame. This is when New York finally found its offensive sea legs and moved the ball down the field. Although his Jason pointed out that especially quickly in the closing minutes of his game down by seventeen points. It was an eleven play seventy five yard drive. They didn't use their timeouts. It took the more than four minutes to get it done. And Eli manning finally found the end zone about as open as you can along the right hash. Manning drops the drill pressure coming throws over little wide open. His tight end. Evan. In the middle of the end zone. And it's a touchdown Ingram with his first touchdown grab of the year. He manning what his first touchdown pass and an easy voter Ingram to keep the giants. Live hopes alive into the end zone for the first time that I now down twenty two. Reason the hopes were slammed as there was only one twenty seven left to go in the game. After the extra point. It was twenty two ten that meant there had to be an onside kick and the giants recovered that onside kick then after eight plays. They elected to go for the thirty eight yard field goal Rosa's drill bat with just eleven seconds to go. What it meant was New York could recover the next onside kick it would have an opportunity maybe for hail Mary to the end zone and a miracle comeback to get the game tie roses. Onside kick sailed over the head and everyone dribbled out of bounds. At basically was Gandhi your ballgame. Donaldson the ball over the forty yard line took a need and they had themselves a victory a much needed victory. Ended up starting out this season for them twenty to
