Welcome back. It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier. Join as always my co-host, Nick Falado.

Tonight, we're here to talk and recap the Giants. Week 10 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. We'll obviously also be talking about things future leaning, of course, with the Giants here in this game.

Obviously, not competitive by any means.

I don't think anyone went into this one, Nick, expecting it to be a competitive game,

but it was maybe even less competitive than some expected.

I don't know.

My focus, Nick, as we talk through tonight, and I'm going to filibuster a little bit to let people get in here as well.

I'm going to post the link as well.

My question, Nick, is, goes back to what you said last week, which is how in the world does Brian Davel keep together a locker room that week after week is going to be playing this type of football?

I asked him about the field side throws, but he gave a generic answer as to why, uh, why they don't come, but he said, basically it was like it's hard for quarterbacks to get the ball out there. So we don't even try it, but yeah, it's hard for some quarterbacks to get the ball out there.

Not all, not all quarterbacks. But yeah, not good, man. Not good to see Sterling Shepard and Dary Slayton going at it. I don't know if we'll ever find out what that was about, but it's weird. I know Sterling Shepard is obviously frustrated with his role this year, Nick. But when all this fracturing starts to happen, Nick, that's when it becomes a question of like, for me at least, how much
