It's the Big Blue Banter, New York Giants Football Podcast. I'm Dan Schneier. Join as always my host, Nick Falado. Today, we're here coming to you less than 24 hours.

Actually, no, it is, yeah, less than 24 hours after the Giants got their week five victory over the Seattle Seahawks to break down the offensive tape from week five in the Giants performance.

Very dominant performance from the Giants.

There's ways around this ways around this though nick that i've heard from some listeners who are trying to help us grow the show like uh you know put out polls and ask them to you know get ask some questions that could get them engaged in the comments let's work on that a little bit later today all we had time for was to focus on the film so let's start there nick let's get into it any further ado. I want to hear maybe how we used to start this thing, like one of your biggest takeaways from watching the tape that maybe you didn't perceive or see your first run through or your second run through on broadcast. And if there's nothing, then you can just reiterate something that you've seen there. So first, Dan, the game plan of the New York Giants was not a surprise.

And we talked about it with Maddie Brown. It was like, oh, Mike McDonald, you like to run some too high defenses. That's cool. We're going to run the football right down your throat when we're neutral in the box or if we can gain an advantage. That's going to be excellent. We're going to run the football. All Giants did that fantastically and took advantage of the too high shell that Mike McDonald kept trying to trot out there.

I felt like the pl... that's going to be excellent. We're going to run the football. Giants did that fantastically and took advantage of the too high shell that

Mike McDonald kept trying to trot out there. I felt like the play calling from the Giants was fantastic throughout this game. It's great to see the New York Giants actually be the coaching staff that you're like, oh, they're one step ahead. Every time, one step ahead. They're pairing and they're counter punching. They're pairing and they're counterpunching.

That's what Daibel was able to do throughout this entire game.

I absolutely love

that but one thing that i didn't necessarily notice on the original watch it was the second it was

the first touchdown drive the third drive of the new york dyes by the way i might do a video

just solely on that drive because that was a brilliant drive from brian dable daniel, and the entire New York Giants. But there was about a two-yard run from Eric Gray on that drive. Seemed like nothing, right? It was like a first down run or something. It was like, oh, okay, whatever. That was a designed flea flicker. And I saw that on the All-22 because I saw all of the offensive linemen just stand up and

start not run blocking. And I'm like, that's a little odd. Then you see Jalen Hyatt running a route, but he's like looking at the safety. He doesn't, he's not acting like he's expecting the football. Darius Slaten runs right at the safety and starts blocking. And then I see Theo Johnson just like standing with his numbers facing Daniel Jones waiting for a football.

It's the same exact play we ended up seeing, I think, two drives later or maybe on the next drive where the Giants end up throwing that tight end screen to Theo Johnson. They ran that play on the first touchdown drive as well. Just ended up going for a two-yard game for whatever reason. Eric Gray didn't pitch. He didn't flee the flicker, you know.
