Summary

Dan and Nick break down the All-22 coaches film of the Giants’ Week 8 loss to the Seahawks on the defensive side of the ball. They first talk overall takeaways before diving into a drive by drive recap with breakdowns of every single play. They start by discussing a key change the Giants made shifting Jaylon Smith to the Mike LB position ahead of Tae Crowder – and giving more snaps to Micah McFadden. They talk about what Geno Smith did to beat the Giants in conjunction with how Shane Waldron (Seahawks OC) found success v. Wink Martindale, but also the many plays Wink drew up to scheme and create pressure. They wrap up with a dive into superlatives, why this was Leonard Williams’ breakout game for this season, and a lot more. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices

0:33.5	Tonight's breakdown, the Giants defense on film
0:36.0	from their week eight loss against the Giox. The good news is the defensive film is better. I have a lot of positive takeaways from this, Nick, especially one. And that main one being the Giants pass shots started to come alive this week for the first time in my mind all season to this extent, I should say. And a big factor in that is my player at the game, the MVP of this game, the Giants defense, which we'll get to. But before we dive into anything further, Nick, I do want to caveat this by telling the listeners, unfortunately, we are on major time constraint this week and tonight. Nick has family coming in, and I have constraints with my job. I have the live stream that I have to be on tonight, and timing is just not going to work out. So we are fitting this into a shorter window than we plan for or hope for.

1:26.9	So Nick will be closing out the podcast, but we also hope to do something with the trade deadline and Joe Shane's presser. But TBD with that, because again, we're trying to fit all this in with timing-wise. But with that said, Nick, I think we should just kind of dive right into the film, right? Because we are on a time constraint here. Yeah, let's get right into it.
1:44.7	And I would say one grand takeaway that I have, and this is not anything novel. It's just that
1:49.5	Shane Waldron did an excellent job throughout this game attacking Wink Martindale's tendency to run man
