00:00Hey, what's your card look like for tonight's game?
00:03For tonight, I got two plays locked in.
00:05We're going Rashad White, 55-plus total yards.
00:08I don't really care how he gets there.
00:09I'm not sure that he's a great runner.
00:11In fact, I'm pretty sure he's not, but he's a good pass catcher.
00:13So that gives you the option to get there.
00:15New York, the fifth worst pre-contact rush defense.
00:19So if you're giving me 10 carries and five targets, I think you can get there.
00:22Maybe upwards of 60 or 70 total yards.
00:25Play it up higher if you want to.
00:26But as quarterback, I don't think he hits for a big pass.
00:28I've got Jayden Daniels under 33.5 yards for his longest completion.
00:33New York just doesn't get beat down the field.
00:35They've got the third lowest average completion rate in the league this year as far as yards.
00:41So the completion is just under 10 yards.
00:42You don't see that very often.
00:43Does he hit a 34, 35-yarder?
00:46If he does, who's he hitting it to?
00:48It's not Terry McLaurin.
00:49He's hurt.
00:49It's not this version of Stephon Diggs.
00:51Chica Conco is nice, but he's a tight end.
00:53You're not hitting for 35.
00:54If he does, maybe it goes to Rashad White, and I win one bet to lose the other.
00:58So what do you think has been the difference with J.J. McCarthy in New York?
01:01Has it been the fact that they've been able to run the football a little bit more?
01:05You know, they're one of the better running football offenses now, and they really rely on that, too.
01:10The offensive line is starting to come around a little bit.
01:13It struggled at the beginning of the season.
01:15Minnesota really doesn't have a run game, let alone have an offense at all.
01:19What's been the difference, in your opinion, with McCarthy?
01:22Has it been coaching?
01:23Yeah, I think you're on the right track there, maybe feeling wanted.
01:26I mean, there's got to be an intangible part of this, right?
01:31I mean, he's got a star receiver.
01:32Like, the setup isn't drastically different.
01:35Sure, there's some more run game, but there's less defense.
01:38You get the good defense from Minnesota, and in theory, that puts the quarterback in a good spot where he's
01:42got leverage here.
01:43But he looks like a different guy.
01:44He looks like the guy that he was drafted to be.
01:48I want to see it last for a full season.
01:50You come over midseason, you have this honeymoon stage.
01:53You never know what's going to be real, what's not.
01:55I expect him to play well tonight and for the rest of the season.
01:58Call me on September 1st next season.
02:00Let's see what he's doing, because he's not going to be starting for this team, right?
02:03I mean, unless he impresses so much that he's starting over Jackson Dart, I can't see where this realistically goes.
02:09He's trying out for another team.
02:11How about this, though?
02:12And I mentioned this in the open.
02:14Kyle, if he wins the NFC East, say he wins a playoff game, if you're the New York Giants, do
02:20you roll back with Jackson Dart,
02:21or do you have a controversy going on in New York in the next fall camp in what you're going
02:26to do?
02:26I mean, how do you look at that if this guy ends up winning the NFC East this year, and
02:30he does it in impressive fashion?
02:33Yeah, I think you've got a controversy, probably a controversy that you still want Jackson Dart to win,
02:38because at the end of the day, I do think his ceiling's higher.
02:40But for a guy that's come in and done it now, if we're playing through what you're saying here,
02:46you'd be crazy not to at least give him a run here, or at least test the waters and see
02:50exactly what his value is across the league.
02:54There's not, I mean, if you have two believable quarterbacks, that's not the worst problem to have for a franchise
03:00that really hasn't had one for a while here.
03:02So I don't think it's a bad problem to have, but it's an interesting one at the very least.
