If the Giants expect a road victory, Xavier McKinney, Julian Love and Darnay Holmes will need to step up. The betting line, the O/U all have Adam and Andy grabbing a cup of coffee and breakdown the Giants season opener. What stands between Big Blue and a road victory? Weather is dismissed by Andy and he believes a controlled but potent dose of Saquon Barkley can spell victory in Tennessee.  How many legs does does a spider have? Break off a couple and you've got Adam's six-leg parlay to break the break this Sunday!

Adam and Andy are back talking New York Giants Football! The Giants depth chart may be thin on defense but OGP has faith that where there is a Wink, there's a way!  The guys discuss the critical task of stopping Derrick Henry and the complimentary back Tennessee now has. Adam views the WR core for the Titans as a weakness, one that affords the Giants some versatility in how they use safeties Julian Love and Xavier McKinney. Ultimately there are two captains in thee middle of this defense, and both Leonard Williams and Dexter Lawrence will need to validate that status on Sunday

The guys are in talking week one for the New York Giants! After discussing the restructure of Leonard Williams, which affords Joe Schoen to enter thee season with "operating money," all attention turns to the Tennessee Titans. Andy breaks down the biggest threat from the Titans secondary, where the Giants can succeed and how Saquon Barkley should best be utilized. The latter point brings some debate between the hosts as Adam knows "bruiser" is not the nickname for thee Giants running back and yet, high volume might be the recipe for success.

The guys grab their morning cup and talk New York Giants football! A lot has changed since last year for Big Blue. With a new GM, new coaching staff and plenty of roster turnover the clean slate is laid out before the team and fanbase alike. 23 new starters will take the field for the Giants this season. Youth is the movement, but which is stronger in the coaching vs talent equation? The answer can be telling in how close to, or beyond, the O/U seven season win target this team can come.

Adam and Andy grab a cup of coffee and break down the not all that surprising release of Blake Martinez. Fans were in an uproar when the news broke late Thursday, but Andy has the numbers to explain why this might have been a part of the plan all along. Adam also gets his juggling master Kalil Pimpleton, while Yusuf Corker gets closer to home.

Adam and Andy grab a hot cup of coffee and discuss the waiver claims, roster moves and practice squad for the New York Giants. The roster cuts made on Tuesday made it clear Joe Schoen would look to add secondary help and he did just that. The health of Shane Lemieux had Big Blue taking a second player of the Jets roster as well. It was a busy few days that brings some clarity to where the roster stands heading into the regular season

Adam and Andy grab a morning cup of coffee and decide who on the Giants current 53-man roster should be expendable to add outside NFL talent. Could a former first round OL in Alex Leatherwood be worth a look? Andy pushes for the 23-year old to be top of the list for Big Blue, while Adam looks at the secondary and LB names that could bring low-risk upside for a rebuilding roster.

Adam and Andy hopped on YouTube Live Tuesday morning to discuss the next wave of roster cuts. Alex Bachman and Quincy Roche are the biggest names to get their walking papers but the guys also discuss names around the league hitting he market and how far Joe Schoen will take the Darius Slayton situation to get some value back for the 4th year wideout.

OGP will also be back LIVE on YouTube at 1:00 PM to discuss the final cutdowns, as Coach Daboll indicated the 53-man roster will be set prior to the afternoon practice sesssion.

Is Kenny Golladay cooked? Brian Dabble might think so, but it also won't matter... for now. The guys discuss wrapping up the preseason, who earned a roster spot on the 53 and why the enduring theme of youth over experience should be the path forward for Big Blue.

The guys hop on to discus the last warm-up game before the 53-man roster locks in on Tuesday. There is not a high expectation that the Giants will run the number ones out vs the Jets, but there are some interesting cases to be made for players that can cement their role. Adam has turned the corner on Darius Slayton, reminding Andy that the Sunday production for this young receiver should hold more weight than preseason accolades. In the linebacking room, Carter Coughlin has everything in front of him with injuries to the defensive unit. Likewise the secondary seems poised for a shake up and a young player like Darren Evans has Adam optimistic. Andy wonders of Matt Brieda's lack of playing is a great or terrible sign, while also noting the TE room will see new faces as soon as league cuts come.  It is all jammed in to a Friday edition of OGP!
