Blue Liar. Welcome back. It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier.

0:10.3

I joined as always my co's Nick Vallado. And first, let me address the elephant in the room for those watching on YouTube.

0:16.2

Yes, you see me in the same shirt that I appeared in last night's podcast, but in last night's

0:21.3

podcast, I had just gotten back from golf.

0:23.3

I showered and I threw on a shirt.

0:25.9

In my opinion, if you shower, throw on a shirt, then go to bed.

0:29.9

You can definitely wear that shirt the next day.

0:32.1

I think it's absurd to suggest that someone has to change a shirt just because they slept in

0:37.0

it after doing nothing in it. Theodorant on. I podcasted it. I did one podcast and oh, okay. Well, guess what? I can go to sleep and then shirt, wake up, wear it the next day. I am not, I can't go through shirts like that. Like, I don't want to be doing laundry 17 times a week. Like, you take a shirt, you can sleep in it you can wear it again this is a

0:55.0

freaking sweet shirt too i wanted to wear it again it's a jimmy hendricks live concert shirt from 1968 that i bought where i was in new orleans i was not there but i bought it when i was in new orleans because it was so cool it's from a concert in new orleans saw the shirt love this thing and Jimmy Hendrix is freaking awesome.

1:11.0

I love him too.

1:12.2

So you know what?

1:13.1

I wore it.

1:13.6

Yes, I went to sleep and I wore the shirt again. Okay. You know what? Kill me. I don't think there's anything wrong with that. And can you say New Orleans one more time? New Orleans. You were saying it a little bit different before. I want people to listen to this right now and then rewind it and then see how Dan said it and then reflect on how he just said it and then make fun of him on Twitter for that. That's all fine. But the shirt thing, I had to address that before we got into this. All right, Nick, let's talk a little bit about some things we learned from the giant's second padded practice against the Detroit Lions on Tuesday. We're recording right now.

1:46.5

It was a good day for the Giants offense.

1:50.6

It was a return to normalcy, at least the normalcy that has been established in trainee camp practicing against their own players.

1:52.9

Obviously, having a day to look at that Lions defense and reflect on what they did

1:57.3

schematically probably helped the Giants because Daniel Jones specifically

2:01.2

and the passing game were much better. Just to go over a few stats here from Connor Hughes,

2:06.2

who was at practice and took notes. Jones went 12 of 17 during 11 on 11 drills, five touchdowns,

2:12.9

three in the red zone drills. Two of the scores came in, or sorry, two of the scores came in

2:17.3

the red zone drills. He went eight of 11 with two touchdowns on the full 11, 11 drills outside the 25-yard line. A quote from Isaiah Hodgins, he was going crazy, quote, unquote. Jones went six of seven with two touchdowns, seven on seven drills. Again, we don't care as much about the seven on sevens, the 11 on 11 that stand out to us.
