00:00When we look at the game today between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New York Giants, it's missing a lot of superstars

00:07Yeah

00:07There are still plenty of options for the sports millions pick them on the Eagle side Jake Elliot higher than six and a half

00:15Points, I think makes a ton of sense one thing the Philadelphia Eagles

00:19I'm sure would like to get going is that kicking game you look now last three weeks for Elliot 9

00:25915 and 11 points there. I think we could see Elliot step up for this game one guy

00:31we will not see step up for the Eagles today is

00:35Saquon Barkley and

00:37Saquon has been the talk of the town for a week now

00:40And I think one of the reasons Donnie that this topic hit even an extra level was I thought of visibly

00:49disappointed Saquon

00:51Speaking with the media who had wished that he had a chance to run for the record today

00:58instead he

00:59AJ Brown Lane Johnson Jordan Malata and a few others won't be going for Philly

01:05Well, then you should have the eye on the prize early in the season against your future or your former opponents in the New York

01:11Giants where I say kid you won't got that spin though

01:1320 25 yards at this point now let the young kids eat and then also agreed

01:17Obviously to once you get the 2,000 yards

01:19You're coming out of the football game against the Dallas Cowboys if you did not agree to that and let you spin for an extra

01:2415 carries in the fourth quarter and they said you know what you're 13 yards away

01:29We're not gonna let you go out there and get this that would have been a shame because that's true carries get them in get

01:34Out the chance for injury probably extremely low

01:36But the fact of the matter is you think that the New York Giants honestly said well

01:39They're a dead football team and they are you know what their defensive coordinator were to do

01:43We're gonna put 11 in the box. You could throw 17 touchdown passes in the first 17 throws you make

01:47We're not letting him rush for a yard

01:49So then say Quan gets to the break 18

01:51carries for 36 yards

01:52Yeah

01:52and then you run him another 18 times in the second half and he doesn't get it and then you go into the playoffs because

01:57We always look at the positive. Yeah, just get him in run him 10 times in the first quarter. He gets it

02:02That's not the case when you're playing teams on the other side. You see Derrick Henry in the first half yesterday

02:06What do you have at the half like my goodness?

02:07Just put him on the bench and put him in ice until he goes away until finally late in the football game

02:12He broke through yeah, 33 yards at the half Henry yesterday

02:15So think about that and then obviously you run the risk of injury. They have their eye on the prize

02:20They want to get back to the playoffs

02:21They want to get back to the NFC championship and make a Super Bowl run and you need Saquon Barkley

02:27100% healthy in order to do that. So I think it's a no-brainer in terms of this game today

02:32So to me, I will just say on Saquon and you and I have talked about this a bit. It's hit me a little more

02:39I am very disappointed in what they did against Dallas like the more I think about it

02:44the more I think about how that game played out their decision Saquon hits a 23-yard run and

02:51The ball then was at the Dallas 23-yard line, right?

02:54They could have hit there was another 23 yards available. They the offense then when he left the game

03:00He didn't come back in the offense went back out there

03:03The balls at the 49-yard line of Dallas the way they were running

03:06That's around 80 or so yards that could have belonged at 970 yards or so that could have belonged to Saquon Barkley

03:14They passed on those yards if they didn't pass on those yards. I think we would be having a different conversation

03:20Here today another sports millions pick them option to me

03:24He's Wandel Robinson higher is receiving number today is 39 and a half the last two games for Wandel

03:3171 and 62 the two games before that landed 38 exactly despite 20 targets

03:37I think Wandel still going to be a big part of the Giants puzzle moving forward

03:41So I expect him to still play well today

03:43I do think there will be a lot of eyes on Malik neighbors two receptions will get him the single-season

03:49rookie wide receiver record

03:51And I also think Malik neighbors is probably riding high off of his incredible performance that ended the cult season last week

03:59171 yards two touchdowns dynamic and as long as drew lock is throwing for 309 through the air

04:05Wandel Robinson is a great look

04:08What you're hoping for here too at this point is that you are if you tell me right now you're getting drew lock four quarters

04:13Why won't they move the football?

04:14They're all backups for the Eagles just looking to get into the playoffs

04:17And this is a team that has showed drew lock has had some pretty good moments here and no pass rush coming at you

04:22You're gonna have no linebackers. You're gonna have no secondary

04:26And you are gonna have guys that are looking to pad their stats and head into the offseason

04:29They drew lock should have a decent day today it is

04:34His game last week just statistically yeah, one of the best of any quarterback all season

04:40I still can hardly wrap my head around it
