00:03 We haven't seen much out of the new connection yet between Daniel Jones and
00:07 Darren Waller.
00:08 Knowing the injuries offensively,
00:10 what do you expect for production from Waller tonight?
00:13 >> Well, for me, this has to be a big Waller game.
00:16 Like they went out and traded for him for a reason.
00:19 Barkley's not expected to play and
00:21 Waller already has a team high 20.8 target share.
00:24 So I'm going to Waller for a touchdown.
00:26 Like too much of this makes sense for him to not be the primary target for
00:30 the Giants moving forward.
00:32 Is a 22.2 red zone share, which is one of the highest on the team.
00:35 Paris Campbell is up there, but he's not seeing as high of an area share compared
00:38 to Darren Waller.
00:39 And with that, you know, banged up secondary for the Seahawks.
00:42 I like this and ultimately, like, I don't wanna say this is a make or
00:45 break game for the Giants.
00:46 But if they lose this, they're gonna be 0-3 in the NFC.
00:49 And that is really, really tough when it comes to playoff tie breakers
00:53 when we get to December or January.
00:54 So like this is like a borderline must win game for the Giants.
00:57 And that means their best players have to show up.
00:59 And that realistically means Waller finding the end zone tonight.
01:02 >> Let's flip it over to Seattle perspective here, Tom.
01:05 Taking a look, obviously you can go with options like Gino Smith,
01:08 who has a touchdown prop over one and a half touchdown passes at a minus 128.
01:12 Running back prop here, Kenneth Walker III at 64 and a half.
01:14 Where's some good wide receiver options here?
01:16 Where are you looking tonight to go from a Seattle perspective here?
01:19 >> I love DK Metcalf.
01:22 And when it comes to Seattle, it's like, okay, is it gonna be DK week?
01:25 Is it gonna be a Tyler Lockett week?
01:26 We don't know.
01:26 But ultimately, that upside with DK Lockett for his long completions is what
01:32 I'm looking for, long haulage is what I'm going for.
01:34 So longest reception over 22 and a half yards.
01:37 He has a team high 37.8 air yards here.
01:39 And so far this season, he has long receptions of 22, 28, and 34,
01:43 which are all awesome.
01:45 And this season, the Giants have been absolutely torched in the secondary with
01:47 long receptions allowed of 21, 22, 23, 24, 29, 40, and 49 in the first three weeks.
01:54 So DK getting down the seam or getting up the sideline for 25 plus yards is like
01:59 a script every night and I will take that certainly over 22 and a half.
