00:00And I want to get into kind of what a joint practice is.

00:09It's different than a preseason game.

00:10In preseason, you're not really showing anything.

00:13What fans don't usually know, in fact, they probably don't know unless you're able to

00:16watch these practices, is that there is game planning.

00:19There is situational stuff that you put in for these joint practices.

00:22You want to see how the opponent handles it.

00:25Whereas in the preseason, you're not going to put out anything that you were probably

00:29going to run because you don't want them to know.

00:32Because Craig, when you look at joint practices, that tape is not shared.

00:36So that's why these are more competitive.

00:38And the Jets were dominant.

00:40There's no question about it.

00:41The Giants, though I think they have a chance to be a little bit better than people think.

00:44People are beating up Daniel Jones.

00:45I know he's had an inconsistent training camp, no question about it.

00:48But they're faster at the receiver position.

00:52They're better on the offensive line.

00:54Running back is going to look a lot different without Saquon Barkley.

00:58But they got to handle it.

01:00It was only one joint practice, by the way, three days before the game on Saturday.

01:05I try not to overreact to the stuff, but clearly the Jets have a better roster.

01:10When you're seeing it up front, you go, wow, they're a lot deeper than I remember.
