Giants' Week 7 All-22 analysis: Coaching an Even Greater Factor Upon Further Review
Dan and Nick break down the All-22 of the Giants' loss to the Cardinals and it further solidifies their biggest question mark -- why did Kliff Kingsbury have a perfect game plan to attack James Bettcher's defense but Pat Shurmur essentially had nothing new, specific, to attack Vance Joseph's defensive system with 10 days to prepare? Dan and Nick question why Pat Shurmur continues to call run plays when the offense's blockers are outnumbered by the total defensive players in the box -- and they point out how often it happened and how much it hurt them? They dive back into Daniel Jones' evaluation after seeing the All-22, they give a shoutout to the game's most underrated player -- Golden Tate, dive into all the questions from the listeners, and a lot more key takeaways from the coaches film.

Dan Schneier and Nick Falato break down every aspect of the New York Giants' Week 4 win over the Washington Redskins based on their evaluations from the All22 Coaches film. They start by diving into Pat Shurmur's offensive plan of attack and play-calling mix. The flip over to the defensive side of the ball to touch on the same thing but with James Bettcher. Then, the focus shifts to Daniel Jones with a breakdown of some key plays that showed how he's wise well beyond his years. Of course, full analysis of the two interceptions, why they happened, and how they can be fixed comes next. Dan and Nick breakdown why the Giants are using so much shotgun with Jones and why they still haven't found success on the play-action bootlegs from under center. A deep dive into the offensive line comes next followed by a breakdown of the running backs. Evan Engram is winning quickly and on routes much sooner than he has at any point in his career -- Dan and Nick break down why. Finally, the defense is highlighted by the best performance by a Giants linebacker -- Ryan Connelly -- in over a decade. Nick and Dan follow up with why they believe David Mayo could be a surprise contributor moving forward, a full breakdown of how Oshane Ximines and Dexter Lawrence have made such a massive impact already as rookies, why Grant Haley's run defense is keeping him in the lineup, and why Jabrill Peppers was the player of the game. Finally, Nick and Dan answer questions about pancakes, waffles, the Vikings' game plan for Week 5, and a lot more.
