Stand-oh! New York Giant fans. Super excited. I get another one of these midday live streams up. I did it one last week with Mike and Nick, Nick and Dan were kind enough to reach out to me. Met them at Fan Fest, two great guys.

They got a great podcast.

Definitely check it out. It's in the thumbnail. Big Blue Banther. If you're in the podcast, we're actually going to try to download this and put it on their podcast. So we kind of get some exposure on both platforms. But guys, thank you so much for coming on. Dan, Nick. Let me just say hello to a couple people in the chat.

John, Joseph Cupid, Craig,

Mike, thank you so much,

Reneer, Davy, thank you being here,

Justin Pinto.

But what's going to? Nice. Thank you so much for coming on. Dan, Nick. Let me just say a load to a couple people in the chat. John, Joseph Cupid. Craig. Mike, thank you so much for being here.

David. Thank you being here. What's going on guys? Hey, you got. Well, you start, Nick, because I'm going to actually look to tweet this link out so we can get more people in here. So let us know how you doing. Chris, man, thank you so much for having us on this. We've been looking forward to

talking shop with you.

And what better time to do that than when the New York Giants are 2 and 0, despite nobody thinking that, right? Nobody thought they'd be 2 and 0. And here we are entering Monday night football against Cooper Rush, possible chance to go 3&0. It's exciting times for Big Blue. Yeah, I'm really excited to be joining you tonight, Chris,

because this is something we talked about at Fan Fest, but also last year, I remember me and you were DM in about like, we got a collab. Like, it's two great, two great entities. We can come together and have a fun live stream like this. Also, I've been a big fan of your work for a while now. I really like the way you go about your business, Chris.

So happy to be doing this.

I appreciate it, man.

You guys see my great guys.

I was telling the way you go about your business, Chris. So happy to be doing this. I appreciate it, man. You guys see my great guys. I was telling Nick, before you popped in backstage that I think you guys do a great job with the film breakdown. And the one thing that I'll say about you, you know, both you guys, you're very fair. You know, I think there's a lot of fans that stick to their biases, whether it's being overly negative or overly positive and they, and they don't look at it as objectively as they possibly can. Like, for instance, I'll, Dan, there's times where I'll, I'll listen to what you have to say on Twitter. I'll be like he's being a little too harsh, I think, about a certain player. And then a week or two later, I feel like you're being more, you're being more positive about the player. So I think you're a guy that comes out with what you feel your true opinion is, and I respect that. So I appreciate working with you guys, appreciate you guys coming on the channel. And yeah, I want to talk about the start of the season. You know, before the year started, we were talking about it a bit. You guys were a little higher than me. Of course, before we got some of the injuries with his easel, Jolari, and Kvon, Tibito, and

Blake Martinez unexpectedly got cut. But going into the year, you said nine and eight, Dan, and Nick

said eight and nine. I said seven and ten. Did you guys see two and oh? After going into

these games, you saw all these injuries. Did you see this start for the Giants? It's hard to say I envision two and, no, Chris, but I will say this. One thing that's changed, one thing that's been the biggest difference for me in these first two games is I wasn't aware of the coaching edge the Giants were going to have in these games right away in week one. Like usually you bring in a new system, both sides of the ball. It's going to take some time, right?

But actually, I was speaking with another great Giants Twitter member, giant fan in Charlotte who was like, actually it might be the opposite. You know, we always think like, oh, you know, if your new coaching staff is going to take time, it might be the opposite because right now teams don't have film on what Kafka and what Wink Marndale want to do schematically.

So that actually might be working to our because right now teams don't have film on what Kafka and what wink martindale want to do schematically so that actually might be working to our favor right now so i didn't consider it but through these first two games chris that's been the biggest difference for me just the giants of such a clear coaching edge it was never more obvious than watching wink martindale against ben macadou last week because no offense to ben macadour or anything but he just was out of his league there and that was the difference in why the giants won that game the first game obviously not as much of an edge there but i do feel like the giants have really good coaching on both sides of the ball and you could obviously point to what brian dable did going for two point conversion there to win the football game that was a ballsy move it was an aggressive move and it set the tone for what kind of team they're going to be. Yeah. And I, you know, and I want to turn it to Nick as well, but just feeding off of what you said, in both games, speaking of the coaching, the adjustments at halftime. And even with the offense in the second game, some of the adjustments they made in terms of the offensive play going. But obviously the first king, that's really what stood out to me, the offensive side of the ball in terms of some of the adjustments they made at the half. So, yeah, you're absolutely right. To me, the biggest bright side so far of this season, as great as the defense has been and as great as Andrew Thomas has been, which J.B.12 said here, and we're going to get into him for sure. and certain individuals on this team has been for the long-term success to this team.

It's the coaching. That, to me, has been what has been the most encouraging thing. Now, did I like everything Kafka? No, I didn't like the second and goal at the two doing his design QB run with Daniel Jones. There's definitely some things that you could say. I didn't love Dable personally not calling a timeout before Daniel Jones went and through that ball.
