One Giant Podcast

The guys are in breaking down the trade deadline that wasn't for the New York Giants. Joe Schoen hit all the right notes in his press conference - acknowledging that they were interested in adding talent at the right price, while providing a "hard no" on one particular player of interest for other teams. Adam and Andy discuss the high-profile wide receiver Chase Claypool who was traded, and how the price tag can inform how fans look at the Giants.

Andy also highlights that the Giants have just a 3% chance to win the NFC behind teams like the Bucs and Packers. In a long season, and ultimately a rebuilding era for Big Blue, the deadline went as the OGP hosts thought it would - quiet. Consistency, competitiveness and evaluation will remain the second half theme for this team.

The guys are in talking all things New York Giants football! The deadline looms for Joe Schoen and Adam and Andy take a look at what could shake out ahead of the NFL deadline. Peter King gave out some midseason accolades to Saqon Barkley, Dexter Lawrence and Joe Schoen - the last of which has build his reputation on finding contributing players without sacrificing draft assets or damaging the future cap space. All these facts have OGP reminding the fanbase, the "big splash" probably is not coming, and that doesn't need to be a bad thing.

The guys discuss a disappointing loss for Big Blue, as the team gets to the bye-week at 6-2. Overall, every Giants fan needs to be elated with what this team accomplished over the first eight weeks - and also this loss to Seattle still stings. There was the tragic fumbles from Richie James, a lack of effectiveness from Saquon Barkley, and for the first time in weeks, Daniel Jones had a poor performance missing a more than a few throws.

Of course the offensive line is beat up, the WR room needs help and the defense tried its best to hang tough. In the end it was a game tied at 13-13 in the 4th and the Giants crumbled.

Adam and Andy also discuss what this game means for Joe Schoen ahead of the deadline and if this team should be willing to go "all in" on the year.

Breaking News: Joe Schoen has made his first in season move - sending Kadarius Toney to the Kansas City Chiefs for a reported 3rd and 6th round pick. What could this draft capitol be converted to for Big Blue in their playoff push? Adam Armbrecht breaks it all down LIVE!

The guys discuss if the Giants should be buyers at the deadline, if they have the ability to buy at the deadline and what they should buy if they can buy. There are several key players that could be up for sale, but what is too high of an asking price, and how does the health and bye-week impact the way in which Joe Schoen looks at mid-season moves.

The guys are in on a New York Giant victory Monday! Adam and Andy talk about all the vibes coming off a 23-17 victory over the Jacksonville Jaguars! Daniel Jones had a perfect touch pass to Darius Slayton, amassed 107 rushing yards and once again played well in a tight game. The breadcrumbs of success keeping building a path to the playoffs and an incredible first season for Brian Daboll. For the third straight week, when it mattered most, the Giants defense showed up and shutdown another QB looking to lead a comeback.

The guys are in for a weekend special edition as the Giants head to Florida to take on the Jacksonville Jaguars. Andy discusses why the line being in favor of the Jaguars is not as shocking as some fans may perceive it. Adam highlights the contrast between Daniel Jones and Trevor Lawrence - two QBs being given different levels of freedom on offense, and also giving different stat and record lines in return.

Adam gets Andy's two-cents on the possible Saquon Barkley trade discussions that could arise ahead of the deadline, something Andy is mostly disinterested in... Mostly.

Andy's Bet of the Week has some easy money out there for Big Blue fans, even if the hosts disagree ultimately on the game outcome. A "letdown game" is always looming in the NFL - but Adam and Andy don't see week seven through the same perspective.

Adam looks at the upcoming matchup this weekend and wonders if the Giants being an underdog(by Vegas standards) should really be all that surprising. The Jaguars have been able to score points at times, shut down oppositions for stretches and be in one score games more often than not. The stark difference between these two teams is the ability to finish games.

Trevor Lawrence has had up and down performances but Doug Pederson has him playing without restriction. Nine touchdowns, four interceptions and nearly 66% completions suggests this is a team capable of getting into a shootout if need be. There is young talent on the defensive side of the ball and certainly a player like Trevon Walker or Devin Lloyd to breakout for a big play game at any moment.

There is always a quiet confidence that the Giants have played in and won close games all year, but is there a chance the dam breaks this weekend against the Jags?

Adam looks at the Giants rookie TE Daniel Bellinger, who received high praise from offensive coordinator Mike Kafka ahead of the Green Bay matchup in week 5. Since then the rookie has shown poise, reliability and consistency to all phases of the offense.

His growth parallels Daniel Jones this season in many ways, and it is a reminder that beyond the wins and loses, the development of young talent is among the top goals of this staff and organization in 2022.

Adam Armbrecht discusses the Christian McCaffrey trade from the Carolina Panthers to the San Fransisco 49ers and if it has any impact on the New York Giants. Brian Daboll and the Giants are having a cinderella start to the 2022 season and Saquon Barkley is one of the biggest component of that success. GM Joe Schoen could find himself in an interesting position as the deadline approaches - not only could the Buffalo Bills and Los Angeles Rams come calling, the trade package could swell as teams get more desperate to solidify their championship chances.

Culture matters, faces of a franchise matter... and so do draft picks to rebuild a roster. Adam also notes the Thursday Night game which serves as another great reminder that while wins and loses may come, the Giants have also re-established organizational stability.
