Description: JP and BMitch are worried about the Commanders offense on the road against a blitz-heavy Giants team. Are you?

00:00one thing i hate in life is hypocrisy i hate people that will contradict themselves

00:08without acknowledging the contradiction right i i really can't stand that people

00:14talking out of both sides of your mouth i fear i'm doing it a little bit in that

00:22i think some of the discourse surrounding jayden is insane i think jayden's a really

00:26gifted passer i think washington's incredibly lucky to have him i think there have been some

00:32late game flubs that i do not put entirely on him i remain quite confident in jayden as a long

00:39-term

00:40answer at quarterback yet i lack confidence in the offense going up to new york like is that

00:51contradictory no it's not contradictory i mean the whole thing about it is you are what you're

00:58speaking is what i've been saying the quarterback could be great but if everything around him not

01:04great he can't do what he normally does so you have to like when i say the quarterback is the

01:11most dependent position all i hear is people keep telling me how a quarterback can make everybody

01:16better around him and i look in those i look at those teams when pat mahol was making everybody

01:21better you know what he had a damn good offensive line and he had a a tight end that was

01:27the best in

01:28the league at that time he had a coach that was drawing up everything to get by his hand quickly

01:33where he didn't have to be worried about sitting back in the pocket when you go back to joe montana

01:38he had jerry rice john stalwart roger craig dwight clark okay you go to damn damn marino he had the

01:46the the the two guys the smurfs okay duper and clayton who wore the one bar face mask

01:54clayton or duper i can't remember super duper but when you start thinking about all those great court

02:00like when you think about what what uh aikman did in doubt the hell he had mike he had eminent

02:06he had

02:06the best offensive line in the damn league talk about mark ripping he was seven times in a season

02:12or whatever that's what you're talking about like right now when you want jayden to like people say

02:20he needs to go deep he needs to throw the ball deeper don't have time to okay the running game

02:28hasn't been where it should be but he's still there he's still got him in games remember the helmet

02:32duper war oh yeah that's a double though it just looks weird it's like the ones you get when you

02:38buy your little uniform yeah or like the little plastic ones that come in the gumball machine that's

02:43what it looked like i am shocked you didn't point out that he's from the boot mark duper in louisiana

02:47i'm sorry i'm sorry i'm sorry i normally just say that all the time but but what i'm saying is

02:51you gotta have some level of stuff helping out you know to to get him to if you give him

02:58a little

02:58help he he will give you way more than you give him i promise you that jayden daniels on the

03:03season

03:03is completing 64 percent of his passes seven touchdowns no picks um about 210 per game and

03:11that's without the rushing offensively they're terrible on third downs they are dead last in

03:16the nfl on third down because there you go third 10 third 12 third 15 third 20 something third

03:2440 whatever course 19 yeah um what's interesting is as the defense has gotten healthier and maybe

03:31steve wilkes has helped i don't want to discount that i think durante jones is doing a decent job

03:37now the defensive stats a month ago were bottom five in the nfl the defensive stats now 20th in yards

03:4524th and points allowed those that is trending the right way their rushing defense is just outside

03:52the top 10 they've been they're now 12th in rush yards allowed 11th in um yards per average so like

04:00the numbers add up here well the communication might be getting better now remember that was a

04:06question there was lots of things there i maybe i'm crazy that i feel better about the defense going

04:12to new york i also giants have quarterback questions is jj healthy is jj good those are your two questions

04:18the giants do have weapons so malik neighbors weapon isaiah likely weapon scadaboo when healthy

04:25weapon they've got a pretty good offensive line they got two pretty damn good tackles

04:29am i crazy to be more confident in the defense than the offense sorry our guy jupe is on the

04:35line

04:36what's up jupe what's going on fellas how y'all feeling doing good man how you feeling brother

04:43i'm good i'm good um i got confident i'm like on the fence with blouse i got confidence in him

04:50we've seen the plays we've seen people open it's just the inexperience that's making me question

04:56everything i know he's going to get better with time we've seen it from beginning of the year until

05:01now he's still got a lot to learn but he can put it all together but i'll say this the

05:06o-line play

05:07is what makes me wary of everything going back to if you just want to go from the dating there

05:15dating error to now we never had a question about the o-line play it was just like what's the

05:22right

05:22plays being called do we have enough weapons for him i feel like we got enough weapons for him

05:27i feel like the plays being called could be better in the situations but what does it matter when you

05:34only got 1.5 seconds to throw the ball it don't matter at all it seems like my man got

05:41hit twice

05:42on a handoff that's crazy to me yeah that's all i got for you that one play donna could have

05:47taken

05:48the damn handoff he got here so damn quick i'm like what the hell just happened i thought he was

05:54offside in that play though there were a lot of times that kind of seemed like they might have been

05:58offside um i don't it's it's a really unique situation going into this game where it seems

06:10like a lot of folks want to be dismissive of the giants maybe that's not how it is seen nationally

06:15one thing i'm real curious about i guess tomorrow's on amazon so we don't get maybe i'm sure espn will

06:20still be doing it you know they show the graphics of like monday night countdown or whatever amazon's

06:28thursday night show is but on the desk for amazon you got what tony gonzalez fits sherman yeah um the

06:36big fella from the rams whitworth and and the host of that show does a great job is that um

06:43chris i i believe um chris thompson yeah chris thompson i think i think she's great um

06:49so that's what five people thompson fits sherman whitworth chanzales inhale like when they show

06:57the graphic of the five of them how many of them do you think are picking the commanders tomorrow

07:04i'm going with two of them like vegas views this as kind of a coin flip i mean the spread

07:09is below

07:10home field advantage yeah roughly i mean it's one and a half two and a half giants are favored depending

07:14where you're shopping so i think nationally people expect this to be a tight game maybe they should

07:22because they freaking tied last time who are you more confident in offense or defense let's go to

07:29drew in dc what's up drew drew drew you up drew you there shout out to stay uh let's go

07:40to andrew

07:41in dc andrew what's up man hey guys thanks for taking my call um i have more confidence in the

07:47defense i'm just so down on the offense right now and it's not just because of jayden i mean he's

07:52been

07:52like a little bit inconsistent but and like with like some mispros and hesitating around letting

07:58them rip but like look what's around him like the o-line can't consistently protect him the running

08:04game like you guys said is like non-existent and the play calling just seems sounds like

08:08so conservative and like listen like jayden would like never admit it himself but i generally wonder

08:13how much confidence he has in the offense himself like he no longer has the safety blanket and zach

08:19earth that he relied on the past two years we haven't seen any rpo game in the last two weeks

08:25which essentially like takes away one of his biggest biggest strengths and he just looks so

08:30like uncomfortable whenever the ball is snapped like he's anticipating pressure um and that's not

08:34to like excuse his mistakes but like when a when a qb doesn't trust his protection and all that like

08:39how can you expect him to play so confidently you know what i mean yeah it's hard to play i

08:46don't know

08:46if you're afraid of the protection i know you're afraid where the damn ball might be because the

08:51ball is inconsistent in the spots you would want to catch it like right here right waist high that

08:57thing is above his waist above his head you know left right all over the damn place it's not consistent

09:03i think you would agree with me brian that jayden's a pretty gifted runner he's he's able to avoid a

09:12lot

09:12of pressures yeah you agree with that yeah he's getting sacked on close to 10 percent of his

09:19dropbacks yeah his sack percentage is at 8.16 percent um 16 sacks in six games he's not running

09:27in no jay i don't think a lot of those are on him is what i'm saying yeah like sometimes

09:31sam howell

09:31was here and sam's a great kid with a strong arm but he took way too many sacks and sacks

09:37can blow up

09:37an offense just like turnovers can yeah the quarterback can at times take too many sacks

09:42and it's on the quarterback and not the line i don't think that's the scene with jayden right

09:46now who is getting sacked go to jayden in pennsylvania speaking of jayden what's up dude

09:52yeah how's it going do you guys hear me yeah we got you yeah i'm gonna try not to pile

09:57on as much

09:58the positive i think durante very good i think he's the best coach on our staff period um i know

10:04the

10:04stats maybe not be great but we look different you look at what minnesota's doing we're trying

10:08a little bit of that and it seems like on the broadcast during the games he gets a lot of

10:13praise

10:13now i'm not trying to go too negative on blau but that choice by the regime to do this in

10:19a make or

10:20break here for everyone involved was a truly diabolical decision he's what 30 years old he's

10:27never called a play he's been coaching for how long two years and i know everyone called kingsbury

10:32the village idiot our offense carried us in 2024 and last year the problem was not our offense

10:38it was our defense i don't think it's blouse fault he's third like look at the guy sean mannan in

10:43philly

10:43all these young first-time ocs like look at the giants they have veterans calling plays they got

10:49roman calling it matt nagy calling it look at every other team like look at ben look at ben johnson

10:55caleb look at josh mcdaniels and drake may you're giving jay jayden daniels a first-time play caller

11:02you're getting rid of the guy that helped him have the one of the best rookie seasons ever and you're

11:07throwing this 30 year old who's never caught a play and is a coach for two years for a make

11:13or break

11:13season like what sense does that make like that makes no sense appreciate the call jayden yeah it's

11:19a fair point i'm not out on blau but he does have a lot of growing to do in a

11:25in a in a season where

11:26you might not have much time for growth and if you want to go a step further brian you played

11:33in the

11:34league on a lot of offenses it's often said that like on the o-line left tackles most important

11:41positions center is considered the second most important right on an offensive coaching staff

11:47especially when your head coach is not an offensive guy per se you've got your oc you've got your play

11:53caller right that's the most important piece a lot of times you say the second most important piece

11:58your o-line coach because they're doing a lot of run game installations so you not only have a first

12:04year play caller in blau you have a first year o-line coach in darnell stapleton yeah like this is

12:10his

12:10first time doing it like and david rye is a guy i like a lot it's his first year as

12:16the past game

12:17coordinator you had all these internal promotions like how different does it look if bobby johnson

12:23still running the o-line room a guy that's done this for 20 years and just like i i to

12:28be honest

12:29with you i don't think it looks very much different because i'm not watching a scheme that's getting

12:34the offensive line's ass kick i'm watching offensive linemen get the ass kick this is individual effort

12:39and individual talent so the scheme is the scheme is not what they're losing making them lose

12:45it's the individuals i don't know if the scheme helped against garrett and donald

12:49well then that's not necessarily the offensive line you gotta the the coordinator has to say look

12:54we're gonna chip right we're gonna help right so that that's something that is not about the

12:59the offensive line coach that's about not wanting to get rid of the the route tree

13:05well then that's what i'm gonna do to get rid of the the the the the the the the the

13:05the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the the
