00:00Of course, the Giants yesterday, a little bit more of a spirited effort than they had
00:06at home against the Vikings in Week 1, but they do lose 21-18 to the Commanders.
00:12Of course, the storyline in this game was, Sky, the Giants didn't have a kicker.
00:17Now look, I've seen some mathematicians out there who have tried to explain that the Giants
00:22would have lost anyway, it would have been 21-20, it would have been this, you know,
00:28do all the math you want.
00:29Bottom line was, they scored three touchdowns, and they couldn't kick an extra point after
00:34any of them, okay?
00:35And they had another situation at the end of the game where they were down in field
00:40goal range, right, Sky?
00:41When neighbors dropped that ball, that they probably would have kicked a field goal there
00:45if they would have had a field goal kicker.
00:48You can do all the math in your head that you want.
00:50Bottom line is, they screwed up.
00:52Now, they added Ganot to the injury report on Saturday with a groin injury.
00:56Dable went with it anyway, and then I guess he got hurt on the opening kickoff chasing
01:00down Austin Eckler all the way down the field.
01:03So the Giants had no kicker for the rest of the game.
01:05He said, what do you want me to do?
01:07I didn't know he was going to get hurt chasing the guy coming back.
01:09He got hurt the day before, Brian.
01:11You probably should have elevated the backup kicker that you have on the practice squad.
01:15But this is the one that's making the rounds the most, Scotty.
01:17So later in the press conference, Brian Dable gets asked about his job, his job security
01:23after an 0-2 start, and things not going very well.
01:27Let's just say he quickly answers Pat Leonard from the New York Daily News and then proceeds
01:32to stare at him for about 15 seconds afterwards.
01:35Here's Brian Dable.
01:36Brian, are you concerned about your job before it's all said and done?
01:40Yeah.
01:41I mean, I've done this for a long time, Pat.
01:43My focus is on our football team.
01:46Yeah, whatever.
01:49Well, now I probably should have let Nick know a little bit more.
01:53That goes on, Scotty.
01:55And he probably cut it after he finished talking.
01:58He doesn't answer the next question and just keeps staring at Pat Leonard after he asked
02:04it like a big, tough guy.
02:06How dare you ask me about my job security when my team sucks, OK?
02:11That's the bottom line.
02:12Listen, I'm sure that his wife thinks he looks fantastic after he's been shooting that Ozempic
02:17in his big, fat belly and lost all that weight.
02:20But he's all of about 5'8 and 175 pounds soaking wet.
02:24No one's afraid of him.
02:26No one.
02:27Like, honestly, like I told you before, you know, Mavi and I, we were talking to some
02:31guy the other day.
02:32He's 6'5", 250, 6'4", 240.
02:35Like I'm not afraid of little Brian Dable.
02:39And you can quote me on that.
02:40Like, I will truck him.
02:42Pat Leonard's not afraid of him.
02:43What are you going to do?
02:44What are you going to do, Brian?
02:46Beat him up?
02:47You stare him down?
02:48You're going to beat him up?
02:49You're a tough guy, coach?
02:50Is that what it is?
02:51I mean, bro, your wife's bigger than you, honestly.
02:55Like, calm down.
02:56Like, no one's afraid of you, bro.
02:57You're losing every week.
02:58And you know what?
02:59I got to be honest with you.
03:00Let's get the rap sheet out.
03:03If you're going to fire someone, like Mara's going to fire him eventually, let's keep incidents
03:08like this as checkpoints.
03:12Like, the day you didn't have a kicker, what were you thinking?
03:15Check.
03:18Right.
03:19And that's really the main thing here, is that you put your team in a situation which
03:23hurt them.
03:24And it hurt the victim.
03:25And I thought, Scotty, I thought Jones didn't play bad yesterday.
03:29I thought Daniel Jones played well for the Giants yesterday.
03:31He gave them a chance to win the football game.
03:33Their defense was pathetic again, like it was the week before against Minnesota.
03:37They lost and it commodes.
03:40They lost.
03:41Exactly.
03:42And they held it.
03:43They didn't even give up.
03:44I mean, listen, they didn't give up a touchdown.
03:45They kicked field goals all day long.
03:46The guy kicked seven field goals on Washington.
03:48But can you make a stop once in a while?
03:52I mean, I mean, you let him go down the field every single possession and kick a field goal
03:57and neighbors like they are not like they are not legit at all.
04:03And the Jets are.
04:05That's just all there is to it.
04:06They have a quarterback and they have a defense.
04:08That's all that matters.
04:10I don't even think the Jets have a coach, but they got a good quarterback and they got
04:13a defense and that's all you need in the NFL.
04:15Like I said previously, just so we're clear, these guys at this level don't listen to anybody.
04:22They don't listen to Robert Sala.
04:24They don't listen to Brian Dable.
04:25They all think they listen to him.
04:27But I know how many players I'm friends with, hundreds of players.
04:31They've told me over the years.
04:33I don't listen.
04:34I listen to zeros on my paycheck.
04:36That's who I listen to.
04:37When you get to this level, you don't listen to little coach Brian yelling at you.
04:41And listen, the Jets can win with Aaron Rodgers and that defense.
04:45They don't have to listen to anybody.
04:47They have so much talent.
04:48Go out and do it.
04:49The Giants have one player on the whole team, neighbors.
04:53That's it.
04:54I mean, Thibodeau, they got him.
04:56And what has he done for the Giants besides, you know, nothing.
