00:03 - All right, speaking of hands,

00:04 let's go to a receiver here, Devontae Adams.

00:06 Six and a half receptions.

00:08 Here's the conversation.

00:09 I mean, he had one last time out amidst seven targets,

00:12 but a struggling quarterback.

00:13 Seven in the game before that.

00:16 What's going on here against the Giants

00:18 who have actually been pretty good in their last five

00:20 under 200 net passing yards,

00:23 over under for Adams, six and a half receptions, George.

00:29 This one's tough.

00:30 Generally, squeaky wheel gets the grease, right?

00:33 We've seen that all year long, right, Matt?

00:35 All year long, a wide receiver who mouths off,

00:37 all of a sudden, the next week, he's getting the football.

00:39 Like AJ Brown, they haven't stopped feeding him, right?

00:41 Since he had his little explosion on the sideline.

00:44 Yeah, CD Lamb wasn't happy, a couple of scores,

00:46 and Dallas realized, oh yeah,

00:47 we should throw the football to him.

00:49 I think they're going to try

00:51 and throw the ball to Devontae Adams, right?

00:53 They're gonna try and throw the ball to him.

00:54 I think there's no doubt in my mind

00:56 they're gonna try and throw the ball to him.

00:58 Problem is, is it gonna be receptive to it?

01:00 Thibodeau's coming after Aiden O'Connell today, right?

01:03 He's gonna go put a little pressure there.

01:05 I think the attempts will be there.

01:08 Six and a half seems like a lot

01:09 for a rookie quarterback here.

01:12 I think it is the right move, by the way,

01:13 for the Raiders to go to him.

01:14 Garoppolo, in my mind, looks like that quarterback

01:17 doesn't want to be hit anymore.

01:18 He doesn't want to be hit.

01:19 And whether it's the injury,

01:20 he's trying to protect himself, whatever,

01:22 doesn't want to be hit.

01:23 Throwing up his back foot a lot.

01:24 So I'm gonna lean the under here,

01:27 but the attempts will be there.

01:28 If O'Connell is better than I think he can be,

01:30 he'll get this.

01:31 So once again, I wouldn't bet this either way.

01:33 But if he asks me which way I lean,

01:35 I'm gonna go under.

01:36 I think he's either gonna get it by the hook

01:38 or not get it by the hook.
