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

Join as always my co-ist Nick Vallado tonight. We are recapping the Giants. What week is it, Nick? Is it 14?

Week 14. Lost to the New Orleans Saints at home. A weird game, to say the least. I mean, the Giants were down 14-3 at one point,

and I kind of was just like, all right, well, it's over. Let me start watching what's going on

with Jacksonville, another two-win team, and the Raiders, another two-win team. And then the Giants

kind of fought back into this game. And really the entire time, Nick, the defense did a lot of work when it comes to

erasing the narrative that they've quit on this coach and they've quit on this team.

A narrative I never really bought into.

Again, I made the point that I think what happened in that game against the box was

they were down 23 nothing early, really early.

And there were two and eight teams. They quit on situation it wasn't oh my god i'm so sad they cut daniel jones let me quit

and i think we've seen that in the last two weeks they fought hard on the defense what goes on

the offensive side of the ball nick that's a whole other. I don't think that has to do with quit.

I think that has to do with ineptitude.

And we're going to talk a lot about that because there's one guy in charge of the offense.

And I don't, I understand his job is tough when he has quarterbacks like Drew Locke, Daniel

Jones, and Tommy DeBito and tackles like Evan Neal.

And who was, I don't even know was Chris Hubbard

Josh Zoodoo. That's how little I cared. That's literally how little I cared Nick. I wasn't

even paying attention to Josh Zood at tackle. I knew Chris Hubber was hurt. I don't even care.

I don't care, Nick. It's the point of the situation and where I'm at. So, you know, they fought hard. They almost won this game. They kind of should have won this game. They kicked a field goal that went in and then they got a penalty that I'm never seen on the yield goal that put him into punt range. They had to punt. Then at the end, they had a chip shot field go to tie it and go into overtime against like Jake Hainer after knocking out Derek Carr, which would have probably been a win for the Giants.

And they blew that too.
