Welcome back.

It's the Big Blue Banter, New York Giants football podcast.

I'm Dan Schneier.

Join, as always my co-ist, Nick Bellado.

Today we are here to break down the offensive film from the New York Giants,

week six loss on Sunday night football to the Cincinnati Bengals.

This one was interesting for me, Nick, because it was the first game I attended this year.

And so I felt like I had a much better view and thought process on what actually went down going into this film review than I've had all season. And it really did carry out, Nick. So I wish I was able to go to every game and watch every game from the 300 level. So I feel like I would have a much better read on the Giants right after the game. But this is the beauty of going to the tape, Nick, because you get that read with the tape. And that's what we're here to provide for the fans, a tape version of what we saw, of what went down, of why things happened the way that they happened, Nick. So I don't know where you want to start today. There's a lot to discuss. But if you had something, jump in. Otherwise, I can kind of lead you. Yeah, one thing I wanted to discuss, the Giants were hardly under center last game. And it was to the point where I was like, every time they went under center, it was going to be some sort of different play. It was the throwback that ended up being an interception. It was the third and what was it? Or it was a loss of

eight. It was a big sack. I don't think it was a third and eight, but it was a big set.

So there was a lot of plays where it was like an obvious play action. I felt like the Giants were a little bit predictable from that standpoint. I had the stat right here. Giants were in shotguns 77% of the time. They weren't running the football under center either. A lot of it was just RPO-based

make-your-read and make-your-de-de-de-your-de-de-old. Daniel Jones, going to the zone read, design quarterback runs. We saw some duo. I think all the duo runs were successful because they were done on third and one or a fourth-and-one or the touchdown one, I believe, was duo as well with three tight ends. I love seeing that. 13, it was a 14 personnel package, baby, because it was big. Josh Azudu was on the other side. They bring Theo Johnson over to the play side. And Chris Manhurt stands up a 280-pound edge rusher, dude, just stands him up and actually gains ground on him. Bellinger just eliminates the linebacker and Tyrone Tracy Jr., who is a bright spot. I know he had like 2.9 yards per carry. It doesn't look good on the stat sheet. But when you watch him, there is a lot of little nuances with his decision making, with his mind and his feet and how he angles his body and how he approaches the hole and his acceleration through the hole that popped up on the all 22 tape, which I wasn't denying. I figured it would be that case. So came away, pleased with everything I saw from there. And then, you know, Daniel Jones wasn't good. There's that. And I'm sure we can, we'll probably talk about that at length in this podcast, unfortunately. But there were a lot of throws that were left on the field. The third date to Wondell Robinson, watching that is just very frustrating. And a lot of those fourth and shorts and third and short throws where he had guys

open and it seemed like he pulled the trigger just a step too early. And Cincinnati was trained

to just drive downhill very aggressively and knock the football away from the quick hitch routes.
