00:00All right, let's shift our focus here to what I think is going to become a little trend

00:07that we're going to do on the show here.

00:08I think at least for the first eight weeks, let's all try to commit to doing that.

00:11We did it last week.

00:12It hit.

00:13We're going to do it again this week.

00:14It's Daniel Jones to throw a pick over under one and a half.

00:17So I'm there.

00:18And that number will move.

00:19That number will become one and a half at some point by week five.

00:22Joe?

00:23Well, look, it's already minus 120 in some spots, so they're telling you that it's going

00:27to happen.

00:28But look, can Daniel Jones pull it out here a little bit and play better in an in-division

00:35rivalry game?

00:36Sure.

00:37Of course he can.

00:38If he doesn't, you have to ask yourself, will they start to go to drew lock?

00:43And then what does that look like?

00:45Is that better?

00:46Is it markedly worse?

00:47I don't know.

00:48I don't know if the Giants know the answer to this issue, but this is kind of a I hate

00:52to say it, but it's a big game here in week two.

00:54From what I've seen, I see a quarterback who's not confident and a quarterback who just seems

00:59like he has lost that that feel for the game now.

01:02Maybe he gets it back here.

01:03Maybe it's week one dust.

01:05Sure.

01:06But maybe it's not.

01:07And if it's not, this could be a bad situation for Daniel Jones, and you might see a pivot

01:12to another quarterback by the time we get to week three.

01:14We'll see.

01:15Again, kind of a fork in the road here for DJ.

01:17All right, let's pick that fork up and ask the question.

01:20Will Colby Parkinson eat 27 and a half receiving yards as you have it in him today?

01:25Again, it's a low number.

01:27He went over this last week, so I don't see why he can't go over it this week with more

01:30preparation and time.

01:32And I don't think you want Cooper Cup having 20 targets.

01:35Like, I don't think that's necessarily the best situation either.

01:40It's only week two.

01:41Let's try to, you know, maintain Cooper Cup a little bit, especially since we don't have

01:44Puka Daku.

01:45We can't lose both of them.

01:46So I do think you'll see a little bit more Colby Parkinson working here.

01:49I think that's probably a smart thing.

01:51All right, and then we'll close this segment out talking about Justin Fields.

01:55A full week for Fields and his team to prepare.

01:58Coach Tomlin, 55 and a half rushing yards.

02:01Is this what we're going to see out of this quarterback, and then thus, how are we wagering

02:04on this team?

02:05Yeah, I think it's an over.

02:06Look, the Atlanta Falcons defense is much better than everybody gives them credit for.

02:11Last week, you saw Geno Smith rush for 30 yards, and Geno's not exactly the big running

02:17quarterback, right?

02:18So the Denver Broncos struggle against the run.

02:20So I think they're going to struggle with fields, and I think fields with a full week

02:23of preparation practice, a full game plan built around his strengths, not packages that

02:27we had to expand.

02:28Look, it was not pretty for the Pittsburgh Seahawks offense last week.

02:32I think a little bit time, a little bit of focus here is a good thing for fields, and

02:38I think you're going to get a better performance out of him.

02:40He is very interesting in the game.
