00:00Games, this is one that surprised me and no, not because I think that the Giants are decent
00:08at all this year.
00:09It surprised me because Darnold and company were able to not just win by a touchdown,
00:14they were able to put down a beating of 28 to 6 versus the Giants that came out in jerseys
00:19that looked like the Montreal Canadiens.
00:21But you tell me what you thought, because a few people, including myself, thought the
00:25Giants would at least cover the spread here.
00:28Well, if you remember on Friday night, I said, do not watch this game, it was going to be
00:32terrible.
00:33Yes.
00:34And that's what it was.
00:35It was terrible.
00:36The Giants are bad.
00:37Daniel Jones is bad.
00:39And you know, maybe I was slightly wrong about Sam Darnold.
00:42I said, you know, he's not able to maintain a wide receiver one, which is what Justin
00:46Jefferson is.
00:47And Justin Jefferson did score, but he didn't hit the over on his yardage prop.
00:51And maybe that's what we see from the Vikings this year, where they're going to be somewhat
00:56efficient on offense.
00:58Maybe they can move the ball if the matchup depends on it, but Jefferson may not be going
01:01for 100 plus yards on a weekly basis.
01:04They may rely more on Aaron Jones, who also scored, and it's going to be more of a balanced
01:08offense overall.
01:09So the actual information on this would be, okay, we can look to Sam Darnold in certain
01:14spots for yardage props.
01:15We can look to, again, we can look to Justin Jefferson for touchdown props, but may not
01:22yardage props, may not the 100 plus props that people like to go to for Jefferson, because
01:27we're not going to see this explosive offense.
01:28We have to reel it back in and adjust our expectations for his production.
01:32I love that you pointed that out because I think that is crucial to catch this guy for
01:37touchdown props.
01:38And then again, if they're spreading the ball amongst a few different targets, then the
01:41value might kind of stand with Jefferson and it might not become a Christian McCaffrey
01:44touchdown situation that it's just like stay away from.
01:47Also keeping in mind, Kevin O'Connell is not a bad play caller and he can come with a more
01:51balanced attack.
01:52So you want to protect Darnold from not hurting himself and his team.
01:56You've got Aaron Jones to help alleviate.
01:57You've got Addison when he gets healthy, and then you've got a few other leavers in there.
02:01Hopefully their tight end gets healthy too, or somebody gets back in the mix there.
02:04But great insight in terms of looking for touchdown props.
02:07They have enough guys to spread the ball amongst and maybe not touching the receiving yards
02:11for a hot minute because we don't need Darnold turning over the ball.
