00:00No signals for the Giants at this point. It's been a brutal preseason, a brutal, you know,
00:10camps for Daniel Jones. I mean, he has been the social media story of the offseason, of
00:15course, the hard knock show, but that maybe Jones, they were looking for another quarterback
00:19to get traded. I kind of feel bad, man. I gotta be honest. I kind of feel bad. Like
00:23he's going into the season with like a zero level confidence personally. And it seems
00:28like from the staff as well. All right. So you're talking about hard knocks. Yes. So
00:32look, the Giants, they let that, they let it out that they were going to try to trade
00:37for Jaden Daniels, but they couldn't get it done. Now Daniel Jones's base salary of over
00:4230 million is fully guaranteed. So they know they couldn't move. No one's going to take
00:45his contract. He is the starter. Drew Locke will be the backup when he's healthy. Their
00:51offensive line, they've addressed it. I know their offensive line hasn't had a great preseason.
00:54I know personally from talking to people there, they feel like when everybody's healthy,
00:59because they finally addressed it for, for years, they just ignored it. Didn't draft
01:03well. And now they feel a lot better with a couple of the free agents they brought in.
01:06They're going to be better. I know it looks bad for giant fans. Relax a little bit. It's
01:10a long season. Some weeks it's not going to look good, but I could tell you, they think
01:14Daniel Jones is healthy despite what some people think. From what I've been told, I
01:18think he's good to go. In fact, I saw him against the Lions at a joint practice move
01:22and run. So he did look healthy. Yeah. And you're right. Their offensive line, historically
01:27bad last year with Jones or without him, their wind total, by the way, Adam is six and a
01:32half going into the season. We've seen a steady under now it's up to minus one 42 on that
01:38six and a half. I mean, I guess things can go well. We shouldn't completely discount
01:43the giant, but your own eyes tell you something. I'm not going to ignore that. Right. Yeah.
01:47And it's funny. I think it's right. I think they're going to be set some more on six or
01:50seven wins. I think the, I think the books have it right. Whereas with the Jets, that's
01:55my team. I'm telling you, they're going to win the AFCs.
