00:00But seeing the actual rundown of the New York Giants schedule, despite beating a win total by as much as you possibly could, give the people the details when I finish the question.
00:12How do you feel around your New York Giants win total looking at these 17 games?
00:19They say you don't bet teams, Kevin.
00:21You bet numbers.
00:22Well, I bet teams and numbers, and I usually feel comfortable about those.
00:26Now, when you steal something, like with the New York Giants, who understand this, you hear me so much on this network, bang on the New York Giants front office, the general manager, the coach, the quarterbacks.
00:37But when I see numbers that aren't correct, I like to jump and make some money.
00:40So the Giants team total was released, Kevin, at a three and a half.
00:44Do you know where it currently sits right now?
00:45Five and a half.
00:46Oh, stone cold winner.
00:48Until you see the New York Giants schedule.
00:51And I'm telling you right now, there must be a method to the madness where the NFL is trying to change things up by saying, you know what?
00:57First place doesn't really guarantee a home playoff game.
01:00They must have been looking at the NFCE schedules because I don't know if any one of these teams is going to win seven games, apparently, with how they're lining up against the AFC West and the NFC North.
01:09But the Giants, who I feel so kind of like, they'll get four wins.
01:12And I go, huh, this might be a fight well into December now, Kevin.
01:16The incredible thing about the Giants schedule is, and again, for anyone that, you know, DRS, it was this incredible 24-hour crusade of letting people know this Giants three and a half number is wrong.
01:31And it being so wrong, you know, the catch up, it took forever.
01:35But, you know, it led to a lot of Giants breakdowns.
01:39And I remember you saying, very excited that the veterans are getting signed.
01:43I don't want to deal with the trials and tribulations of a rookie.
01:47To some degree, I look at the schedule and go, all right, 0-4 Russ, he's gone.
01:54Oh, and hey, Jameis, get him out of here.
01:56And now Jackson Dart's going to have to get you all these wins.
02:00Now, look, teams steal games.
02:02But when you look at those first 12 for the New York Giants, Donnie, the amount of games where they are likely touchdown underdogs at Washington, home against KC, both Philly games, at Detroit.
02:17I mean, in half of those games, they very well could be over a touchdown underdog.
02:24The NFL usually, Kevin, does some teams a favor.
02:28Hey, you're bad.
02:29We're going to help you out.
02:29You get a last place schedule.
02:31But what's the best thing you can do to a team that's really struggling?
02:34Give them the easier start to get the vibes in the building and everybody happy.
02:38It's almost like the NFL did the exact opposite to the New York Giants.
02:41Like, if you wanted to say, OK, we're going to give you a fighting chance.
02:44Home against the Commanders.
02:45Home against the Cowboys.
02:47Home against the Chiefs.
02:48Home against the Chargers.
02:49OK, you got four home games in a row, something you're not supposed to get.
02:52Get out to a 2-2 start and see what you can manage.
02:55The fact that they gave them two road games.
02:57So I don't know, the team that made the NFC Championship in the Commanders and then the
03:01Dallas Cowboys were going to be coming into that game off of a mini-buy because they play
03:06the Philadelphia Eagles opening week and have the home game.
03:08That's just not right right now.
03:10And you're right about this one thing.
03:11Like, the three and a half should be in your back pocket.
03:14But you're supposed to pick up wins later.
03:15You get Russ out to a 1-7 start.
03:17Why is Russ playing anymore?
03:19And the rookie comes in.
03:20The Giants might go, you know what?
03:21Let's let the rookie play.
03:22We win two games.
03:23We're getting another high draft pick.
03:24And three and a half goes up in flames now.
03:27We don't know how the season's going to actually turn out.
03:29But it is a death schedule.
03:31You ever watch soccer, Kevin?
03:32The group of death.
03:33The Giants got the group of death schedule.
03:35That's what they got.
