It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast, and I'm Dan Schneier. Join as always my host, Nick Falado. I can't believe I'm saying this, Nick, but we're doing the offensive tape today.

We'll see what happens when we get to the defensive tape, of course, but came away somewhat optimistic.

Honestly, pretty optimistic about what I saw from the Giants offense in this game.

What it can mean moving forward if the telltale signs of this improvement on the

offensive line and what neighbors can mean for an offense are true and they hold true

and they play out over the rest of the season. We'll see if that's the case. But I want to start

there today, Nick. I want to start with the offensive line. This might have been the best

offensive line performance I've seen by the New York football giants in 10 years of watching this team.

I think it certainly was the best offensive line performance I saw overall since we started doing this podcast.

Now, there have been some better games from a run blocking standpoint.

Maybe there have been some better games from a past pro standpoint, but I don't even know if that's the case. But overall, they have not been a better. There has not, I don't think there's been a better performance than I saw from this group collectively in this game. So where do you go on to start? What are your thoughts on that? From the run blocking standpoint, it wasn't like the Giants got all that creative. In the past, when we've seen successful runs, it was a lot of counter runs. It was a lot of we're going to pull the backside guard. We're going to pull that backside. H-back's going to be a counter run. We're going to create those extra gaps on the play side. This was more just duo. It was just, we are going to form double teams up front and we are going to abuse you. And when you combine that with the

aggressive nature of Washington's defense, especially when they were getting run on, you saw

them, I felt like adjust well throughout the game. They started slanting and stunting,

meaning they're exchanging gaps at the snap. And it kind of threw off the double teams.
