| 0:00.0 | Welcome, everyone to the score fantasy football podcast. I'm your host, Justin Boone, the lead fantasy analyst at The Score. |
| 0:20.2 | Coming to you after another slate of preseason action. We got one game left to go. That's the Ravens and the commanders tonight. So no takeaways from that one yet, but I will be updating that week two takeaways column, if anything notable happens in that game. And then we'll have a chance to talk about it on Wednesday show, if that's the case But today, we're here to get caught up on all the biggest lessons that we learned over the weekend. There is no time like the present. So let's dive right in. And we will start with the Giants offense, which looked very intriguing with Darren Waller out there. And Sequin Barkley wasn't suiting up. So the Giants just didn't bother to call any run plays when Daniel Jones was on the field. |
| 0:57.0 | They threw the ball every single time. |
| 0:59.4 | The results were so positive. |
| 1:01.1 | Jones completed eight of nine passes, 69 yards and a touchdown. |
| 1:05.3 | Scramble for another six yards. |
| 1:07.3 | And the beatwriters have been telling us that Darren Waller looks fantastic, that he's |
| 1:11.7 | the focal point of the attack in practice. We've seen some clips, some highlights trickling out. |
| 1:16.6 | Well, he drew four targets in this one. He caught three of them for 30 yards. We also saw |
| 1:21.7 | Paris Campbell get two catches with the starting offense. That was for 18 yards. And then Isaiah |
| 1:27.0 | Hodgins got one. Jalen Hyatt got one. |
| 1:30.0 | So nice to see those guys getting involved too. As it stands, though, you have Campbell, |
| 1:35.2 | you have Hodgons, and you have Darius Slayton. You have those three position to be the starting |
| 1:39.6 | three in three wide sets. Hyatt making a very very strong case for himself though this |
| 1:44.5 | preseason the deep speed it was on display he adds that dangerous element to |
| 1:49.6 | this offense he had a 33-yard touchdown from Tyrod Taylor not from Daniel |
| 1:54.1 | Jones but still great to see him out there making the safety completely miss |
| 1:59.4 | and ending up wide open in the end zone for the score. |
| 2:03.1 | And it remains to be seen whether the Giants wideouts are actually going to be able to emerge with |
| 2:07.8 | enough volume to be fantasy starters potentially. |
| 2:10.8 | Last year we saw that happen. |
| 2:12.7 | I expect that we're going to see at least one of them do it this year. |
