all forward. I wasn't going to live through what happened last
last week in Chicago. So I'm going to give ourselves room
for the punt. We did that we give ourselves room for
the pump. We protected it.
We covered. Well, we played the field position situation.
I want to play. We held them on the next drive and that's what
you want to go ahead and play that. Now, do I do that? All
the time were backed up know. But that was a situation that
day with where we were
and I want to make sure that, you know, the things that we
had issues with last week in Chicago. That, that was not
going to repeat itself.
Yeah, it's important to use an unprecedented strategy when
trying to win a meaningless. Wake 18 to game and do not
trust your special teams actually get off a punt. We
gotta get a few extra yards were on the three. We better
get to the five and
I feel like he's trying
to get fired. I feel like over the last 10 days. He's morphed
into George Costanza, trying to ditch the Yankees for the Mets.
Dragging around the Super Bowl trophies from the,
from the bumper of his car, running around in a
flesh-colored body suit, whatever.
It takes to get fired. It's just bizarre to me Chris and
look, here's what I think's going to happen. Here's what
I think happened. And the key for me came from
the announcement that Dave Gelman is retiring and he's
informed ownership in recent days that he's going to retire.
Get out of here with that. That's a lie. They've known for
weeks that he's out.
Here's what I think is going to happen.
The mayor has,
who
primarily run the team. I know Steve Tisch is involved. But
the mayor is run the team.
They want to keep Joe judge,
but they don't want to be the ones that come out and say
we're keeping Joe judge, so, They're delegating it to
the next GM. So the next GM is going to be somebody
who will keep Joe judge. That's going to be one of the implicit
requirements for getting the job. You have to be a Joe judge
guy or you're not getting the job. We've seen this coming for
weeks. We've seen it coming from months, talk about its now
playing out its now, playing out there. They're going to
hire a general manager
who will keep Joe judge and it's the general manager.
Decisions. Not ours. Don't put, don't put a caricature of us on
the back page of the New York Post. John Mara making
the decision. It's the next GM making the decision.
Yeah, Mike, I don't disagree with you there. I don't, I'm
not, you know,
you know, I love the Giants. I love the mayor of family and
I stick up for them. But I do. It does look like that. You know,
that that's what it does look like on the outside looking in
and, you know, we've talked about this for a month.
That's where I expect them to keep, Joe judge. And that's
where I get back into. Like I do think they got hire a New
England type of guy
to go up there and be the GM
to make sure you know for One. Listen,
you know a guy like Monty Austin for it from the, from
the Tennessee Titans. I know a guy like that, who I know is
getting some interviews, and some, some consideration for GM
jobs. He worked in New England. He'll understand again
to me. That's a win-win. Okay. Yeah, if you're the Giants, in
the mirror family, you can bring a guy like that. He's
gonna understand Joe judge how he works, the New England way
and then even if it doesn't work. And okay, now we got to
get, get rid of Joe judge. You got a guy that,
you know, has been in a tried-and-true devaluation. On
that, this is going to instill that into your organization.
You'll be able to build on that for the future. Anyways, so
that's
the direction. They've already decided they want to go. Joe
judge, head coach, to me. That's the next move. You got
to go. You got to hire somebody that's going to have some sort
of knowledge of Joe judge or understand what he wants as far
as total
organizational. Picture
to make that work. Alright, one last thing Mike and I want to
make this too. Again.
Joe judges mess. Something's up here the last few weeks.
There's no doubt, whether it's the press conference or even
the way that play called there the other day, on third nine,
you know, again,
I don't the Optics matter perception matter. And that's
to me where Joe judge again, who I'm a defender of, I know,
has dropped the ball third and nine had the offense is crap.
I mean, they're crap. They couldn't do anything.
So he's trying to play a game where they can maybe win
the game 926, because he's been stuck with a crappy
quarterback. He had a play and Jake from a horrible offensive
line with
Can't even he can't trust that they can run the ball up,
the middle. Would that office line and get positive yards? That's
how bad they were in the first half. So that's where I defend
him to, but you also need to know that the Optics of you
running a quarterback sneak on. Third
nine. People are going to jump on that right now, you got to
do something else for your own, but so save your own butt in
this situation because perception becomes reality, as
we know in this league and that's to me where he dropped
the ball
and a way there.
Because so what if they block the punt, you don't look like
An idiot. If they block the punt, you look like an idiot
for running this reverse flying, right. You give us
a social mean, social media looking to start. Yeah,
exactly. Right? That's where it's wrong. The thought is,
right. They stopped them.
It was a three, nothing game
Washington, didn't get any points.
Everything was right there, but it's a, it's the Optics of it
that are not good. When, you know, there was some
questionable, Optics around the situation, all ready to begin
with.
