00:05The Giants are going to take the NFC East and they have to be able to run the football like
00:09they did in the second half in overtime and the Texans win. They're going to have to be able to
00:14do that consistently. The run design, the offensive line, and the guy carrying the swine,
00:21they all have to be in sync and they have to create the big play like they were able to
00:25do
00:26in that Texans game. Well, they all deserve their flowers, but the guy who gets our New York Post
00:33Sports game ball is obviously Cam Scadaboo. Way to get out the doghouse and to be back into the
00:39penthouse. Let's break down how the run designs, the offensive line, and of course the guy carrying
00:45the rock was able to be effective down in Houston.
00:54All right. All right. Let's take a look at this, man, because Scad had himself a day of the run
01:00game, struggled. I don't want to necessarily say struggled, but just wasn't, it wasn't popping
01:06in the first half. Great job by Nagy, G-Roll, and those guys making the adjustments. Also,
01:13Willie Taggart making the adjustments to get some bigger runs out of these guys in the second half.
01:18This one right here. I mean, this is by design. I want to start it by showing how designed,
01:24by design, they were able to get Scad some favorable runs or put him in favorable matchups
01:32for him to get up on safeties, get up on the third level and do what he has to do.
01:39So we saw Jameis
01:40come in, do the tush push or the Winston sneak or, you know, whatever you guys want to brand this
01:46thing,
01:46but uh-uh, gotcha. Let's watch the play and then we'll bring it, we'll bring it back and we will
01:53break it down. You see everybody trying to clog up that middle for the tush push or the QB sneak.
02:00Uh-uh, they get fooled. Big play on a third and one for this Giants offense in this run game.
02:08But
02:08here's how we do here because you see Scat, Ricard, Malachi Fields, you see these guys in this
02:14inverted wishbone. As soon as Jameis snaps his football, tucks his head to get, to try and get
02:20that first, that one yard or inches of the first yard, these guys usually come, they push, they push
02:26the pow. But nope, we're going to switch it up on you guys. Right here, you see at the snap
02:32of the
02:32football, you see all the bodies, all these interior offensive linemen go down, make it look
02:39like it's going to be that QB sneak. You see the front, it's a reduced front. These guys, these three
02:46interior defensive linemen, they're in here, they're packed to play that QB sneak. Same thing with these
02:52guys, they're in for the push, to push backwards. But you see space here, you see gaps here, you see
03:00favorable matchups for you to get blockers on second, I guess we can call them second level
03:07defenders here, and open up a running lane or rush lane for Scat. Great job, great call, great design.
03:15You go down with Andrew Thomas here, 78. You see him blocked down. You see Manhurts,
03:23Chris Manhurts kind of help check for the double team to get up to that second level. So now you've
03:29got
03:30this guy already crashing down to try and stop any play that goes through this gap or this QB sneak
03:36makes Andrew Thomas's job a little bit easier for him. Let me wash him down. Same thing with Manhurts.
03:44You help with the inside hand with this left hand. Now you get up to the second level to seal,
03:50seal this,
03:51seal off this lane here, seal off any coverage here. So now you've got down, down, and you see the
03:58lane
03:59starting to form now. Now the last piece of the puzzle, the last affinity stone is Project Pat or
04:07Pancake Pat going out there one-on-one with the corner with the little guy to kick him out. And
04:13what do you get? You get yourself a rushing lane that your grandmama could run through. Great job by
04:19G-Ro, Willie Taggart, Matt Nagy, and this offensive staff to call, to not only design this, but to call
04:27it in the situation, get the matchup, get the front, get the defense, the scheme that you want.
04:34And then the execution by the guys. Kick out, walled off. Now you've got scat, untouched, going up.
04:44Let's see where that was. Let's see where the ball, the line of scrimmage is what? Right here. I don't
04:49know what number this is. Let's go five, ten. Ten yards before scat is touched. And then he gets the
04:56chance to try and bully a little guy here. So by design, that's one way that they were able to
05:03get
05:04the run game and Cam Scataboo going, particularly in the second half by design. Now let's watch the
05:11next play. We see it here. I believe this was the touchdown run. Touchdown run will stay in tight.
05:22You see now sometimes throughout the course of this year, these double teams, they haven't been able
05:27to manhandle and get the reach in the blocks that they want, the penetration or the push that they've
05:34wanted on some of these double teams. So first by design, by play call, they got scam. They got
05:42scat or Cam. They got him free. They got him going. Now the offensive line doing their job,
05:48getting him going. Let's watch the play. Then we break it down. Double team here gets up. Boom.
05:54O-line, scat doing what he does. Get off of it. Get into the end zone. Make somebody pay. Love
06:01to see
06:01it. Love to see it. Absolutely love to see it. So let's bring it back. Bring it back and rewind.
06:09You see them in the bunch formation. This is a heavy personnel, 13 personnel, one running back,
06:16one, two, three tight ends, one wide receiver. Isaiah Likely, he's a tweener. He's a hybrid guy,
06:22but he's still, he's still a tight end. It's just, he's a, he's a mismatch. Now let's watch this right
06:28side of the offensive line to start. We see the double team here. Andrew Thomas has the one-on-one
06:33double team. Hudson here, center, gets a hit. Helps this left guard here and John running get control
06:42of this, this interior lineman. Helps him get control of the block until he now goes and climbs to the
06:50second level. Looking at it, that's a win. That's a win. That's a win. Let's bring it back. Bring it
06:56back in real on. CC Maunoah, you've got your one-on-one. You've got a win there. Looks like
07:03he's winning here. Maybe not getting the push that you want, but you're not getting the penetration.
07:08If you're not going to get push, you don't want any penetration. Let's watch this double team here
07:13between Jermaine and Luminor and, and pancake Pat. Get some. Pat actually helps seal it off,
07:21wall them off. In a, in an ideal world, you'd want him to push this interior lineman, this lineman in
07:30enough to a Luminor can take control of it and get the one-on-one and then Pat climbs up
07:36to the next
07:37level. Or if this guy was to come off and try and go heavy to, to, to, to heavy, to
07:43fight this block,
07:44to fight this pin, pin by a project, a pancake Pat here, then Pat would take the one-on-one
07:51and the
07:51Luminor climbs up to the second level. So good communication by these guys. They weren't able to get
07:58it as clean as they want it, but hey, it is what it is. And then you see the kick
08:02out by Manhurts, but this
08:04is all Cam Scatable. We've seen it since Arizona State. We've seen it. Him being able to run through
08:10arm tackles and we wanted to see more. We wanted to see more of this, this season from Scat breaking
08:17these tackles, particularly on the second and third level and getting more. And then you punish the
08:23little guy in the end zone and then you do what you do. So huge. So we saw one by
08:27design too. We saw
08:29the offensive line have themselves a pretty solid rep and Cam by, but, and because of that, Cam Scatable
08:36was able to do what he does. All right, this one, the big run at the end to set up
08:42Motor Singletary,
08:44Motor Singletary's touchdown. Again, 13 personnel, one, two, one running back, one, two, three tight ends.
08:52Malik Nabors one-on-one or the single receiver in this. We'll watch it from the wide and then we'll
08:58watch
08:59it from the tight as well. Again, see Project Pack slamming down, blocking, blocking color, getting
09:07color. You see guys getting up, the offensive lineman getting up to the second level. Oops, we were
09:12supposed to watch it and I was supposed to break it down on my back. Let's watch it. Boy said,
09:17I won't
09:18fumble in that one. I won't, I wasn't going to fumble that one. I wasn't going to try and do
09:22too much
09:23and fumble that one, but quickly, let's just, let's quickly watch it. Then we'll get out of it. We'll
09:27watch the tight. Boom, block up there. You see, likely get up on that third level, be able to get
09:34a block, but let's break this thing down from the tight. Let's watch the offensive line and let's
09:39watch Scat do what he does. Offensive line, hell of a rep right here, Hog Mollies. Hell of a rep,
09:45hell of a, hell of a way to get the running game going when you needed it most and that's
09:49the second
09:49half, particularly the fourth quarter when it was time, and overtime when it was time to win this
09:55thing. So we'll start with the right side of the line again. Pretty much the same we saw from the
10:01touchdown run. Let's double it. Let's double it. You've got the one-on-one here. You got a double
10:06here between CeCe Malinoa and Jermaine Illuminor. You see Project Pat slamming down here, but let's,
10:14I'm doing too much. I'm talking too much. Let's watch it here. Let's watch the double team. Boom,
10:18slam it down, kick control. Basically, everyone's just being washed. This isn't anything overly
10:23pretty. You see the stunts. You see, you see, you see the, uh, the, the, the crashes by these
10:31defensive line. They're crashing hard to the inside. You're actually doing the job for these
10:36offensive linemen and all they're having to do is just gain, get that leverage and wash you down.
10:42Same thing here. Wash you. I'm looking, I'm helping, I'm seeing what's what, and then I climb up to the
10:47second level. Same thing here. You're just washing these guys down. Now Jermaine Illuminor gets up clean
10:53to this second level one. I believe Al Shazir right here gets body on body and Cam reads that. Now
11:00it's
11:00about the vision of the running back. What do you see? Boom. Great job, Illuminor. Didn't have to do
11:06too much. Let your running back make you right. And you see, because Scat, I mean, because Pat is,
11:15Pat Ricard is able to slam and wash down color, which was a defense alignment here. Illuminor is
11:22able to get up to that second level. Likely is here able to get up to that third level. Look
11:28at the
11:28hole. Again, it's a hole that your mama and your grandmama could run through. And then Scat just doing
11:34what it does. Breaks the angle. Needs to hold on to the football. Does exactly what the play was
11:43designed to do. How the linemen blocked and scheme it. And then it was on Scat to finish the run.
11:51I think we're going to see a lot of the 13 personnel for the Giants going forward. We're able to
11:59see them
12:00get, or we're able to see them make adjustments at halftime and get more out of the running game
12:06in one half of football or an extra half of football than we've probably been able to see on a
12:11consistent basis throughout the course of the year. But Cam Scataboo showing that he's able to run
12:17through arm tackles, showing he's able to read blocks, read schemes and hit holes, get to the second
12:23level, make a guy miss or two and get into the third level. The Giants offense needed to put that
12:29on tape in terms of explosive runs. And he was the guy that was able to do that. So run
12:34design,
12:36offensive line, and the guys carrying the swine, they deserve their flowers when our game ball goes
12:42to Cam Scataboo.
