00:00We got some breaking news here.
00:02Let's get you caught up with the latest as we got Monday Night Football coming your way
00:07between Giants and the Rams.
00:08Now, good news, bad news for the Rams there, Scotty.
00:12Good news is Aaron Donald is in tonight.
00:15You will get a chance to see the man after he retired three years ago.
00:20Bad news is Puka Nakua has already been ruled out.
00:24So that's a big target and a big security blanket for Stafford that will not be available
00:31for him in this game.
00:33Now, we were just going over the numbers, and as a Ram, Stafford has not exactly excelled
00:38on Monday nights.
00:39One in five as a Ram starting quarterback on Monday Night Football.
00:44So Puka Nakua would have been a big help, but the question is, since he's not going, who's
00:52getting those touches and those looks here?
00:54Scotty, who do we think?
00:56Yeah, it's interesting.
00:58You know, take them behind closed doors.
01:00Who would you rather have, Puka or Aaron Donald play tonight?
01:02And I got a feeling the Rams would say Puka, to tell you the truth, right?
01:06Especially not knowing what you're going to get out of Donna.
01:07That's a big blow.
01:08That really is.
01:10So, you know, you take a look at the guys for the Rams.
01:15You scroll.
01:16Is Devontae Adams going to really pick it up?
01:18You know, I think Devontae Adams' better days are behind him, right?
01:22I know that's where people are going to run towards, right?
01:25But I don't think so.
01:26I think what that's going to do is maybe even lower Adams' numbers because now the Giants'
01:30best defensive back can go cover him versus covering Puka.
01:33So, I wouldn't be automatically, you know, like I said, running for his numbers.
01:39You know, with the Cody Parkinson's of the world, well, there's not much behind.
01:44Like, as far as notable names, Terrence Ferguson, the tight ends are going to come up big.
01:48Xavier Smith.
01:50I mean, it's really, it's like a who's who or nobody when you start to look at the Rams'
01:54wide receivers outside the main two guys.
01:57So, yeah, I mean, I guess that's how you, you know, Colby Parkinson, Giants have more
02:05guys than you think you can throw the football to.
02:08But Xavier Smith would be the lone guy that really kind of, you know, might be the one
02:13that picks up a little bit of the slack.
02:16I think it leads more towards running the ball for Rams.
02:19Running.
02:20I agree.
02:21Or running backs out of the back.
02:22Short passing game to the running backs, Scotty.
02:24I'm with you.
02:25Yeah, I'm with you.
02:29Safety, security valves right there.
02:31Just dump it off.
02:32I'm wondering if the Giants are going to go after.
02:36We know he's not going to outrun anybody, like you said.
02:39So, I'm wondering if the Giants maybe start dialing up the blitzes here to see, okay, well,
02:45he can't get bailed out here by Puka.
02:47So, let's see what they got.
02:50I would, however, though.
02:51I mean, he has been, you know, an ATM machine in the red zone, that being Devontae Adams.
02:58I mean, that guy scored, I think, what, 13 or 14 touchdowns.
03:03And, right, is he not an anytime touchdown guy for us tonight?
03:07Yes.
03:09Absolutely.
03:09And that's where they really threw it up last year.
03:12Yeah.
03:13In the red zone, he's absolutely the number one guy.
03:15Right?
03:16Yeah.
03:17But as far as total yards are concerned, I'd be a little concerned about that.
