 Back in New York City. Oh, do you hear the beeping and the ambulance is coming by we love it We're here to recap week eight Victor Cruz joins me shortly and happy Halloween. What did I dress up as? Somebody who's fan will parley was one yard short of nirvana. Let's hit this New York City this kind of an echo in this loft that were in in midtown Manhattan I'm very happy to be home. I was here all weekend. I went to Saturday night live saw An amazing show I'm going to see some Broadway action tonight And I'm just so so happy to be here and so thankful to Fan Duel for supporting this trip And I'll be hitting some press this week to support up and Adam So thank you guys if there's anything I need to do back in New York City your favorite restaurant What I need to go do let me know it up and Adam shown I have the absolute best person the all-access pass to New York City Victor Cruz joining me shortly We'll talk about those giants and those jets. I mean I roll back into town and What the hell happens to the New York teams? I wanted to be part of the winning and it didn't happen But we got to start with what went down last night the Buffalo Bills beat the Green Bay Packers 2717 now it wasn't the cleanest performance by the Bills, but they're the best team in the NFL They looked very much like the contender that we come to see week in week out and they're atop the AFC at six and one And it's going to be tough for anybody to catch up to them But to me all credit to those Buffalo Bills fans and all of that But the story is about the Packers because the run game I was I was so excited to see it finally thriving Aaron Jones AJ Dillon. They helped Green Bay put over 200 on the ground It's as if they finally listened to me. They were running at a beautiful seven yards per carry clip and the defense You know, you can't stop Josh Allen when he's running your way Smash almost got a nice hit on him got a little bit You can't stop and you just have to contain him and they were doing that and they were playing with a lot of passion Which is what we wanted to see and you know the attitude that we saw from a Jair At the tunnel obviously they come out of the same tunnel up there In Western New York, which we love and Russell Douglas going at it digs with Gabe Davis That's exactly what you want to see because this is very much a must-win game for the Packers and they lost But they still kind of won I'm not going to call it a moral victory But they kind of won this game just like I kind of won my parlay We'll get to that the disconnect in this passing game is the V problem It's maybe the only problem because everyone else was playing at their best at their capacity But even when they're trying to do their best through the air They continue to struggle when it comes to these third, you know, or these key fourth downs these situations and third down It was a step in the right direction the watching last night from my hotel room in New York eating ice cream I was in bed. I took Nyquil. I'm a little groggy this morning to be honest with you But I'm drinking my body weight and coffee to fix that But when watching the game the Packers are still not getting what they need out of Rogers and this receiving core You have one day. That's all I'm going to say Trey deadline to mark while this is like a deep deep chair I need like a one of those pipes with the like a master masterpiece theater Make a move can we please can we please make a move? We are doing trade dating with Victor Cruz swiping left swiping right on Ride receivers for the Packers later in the show, but there's options out there I mean you can't trade. I'll tell Beckham junior like can you add him? Can you see where he's at DJ more Brandon cooks Vernon Davis came on our show last week I know he's a tight end But he said he wants to come back and play a win another Super Bowl ring So booty you have one day make something happen. All right other takeaways from yesterday By the way the Packers have the Lions next week if you look at the schedule here So and let's not pretend the Lions are going to be some easy win They're not going to walk all over them. They're very tough out Cowboys Titans Eagles So the margin for error for this team is so small and slight and razor thin that They just need to make a move make a move for Ryder Siever and get this man Anything you want and I want to see in the next 24 hours or so Okay, we got a nice healthy dose of NFC West rivalry Which we love Rams Niners and it was a lot of more of the same and a lot of respects Shanahan, of course beats up his little brother for the eighth time in their last nine meetings That's insane, but there was one enormous difference. I said when they added Christian McCaffrey I told Brandon Marshall. He was like, okay, you're crazy the Eagles. I told stats NF, you know San Francisco pundit. It's going to tip the scale in their favor in the NFC. No, okay You're crazy. You're an idiot now It does come down to health, but the dude wearing number 23 is a difference maker Christian McCaffrey It's not even that game-changer shifting the balance this this Conference is the Niners to lose and they looked awesome. He did it all 183 all-purpose yards he became just the third player since the merger to catch throw and run for a touchdown in The same game he joins LeDanie and Tomlinson and Walter Payton as the only guys to ever do that So seeing the Niners demolished the Rams they did and they did it without Debo Samuel and seeing Shanahan and McCaffrey And this combo and this Epps, you know, it's Halloween. Nothing is scarier produce these results This is the warning shot that I still served you guys last week to say that this is the team now This is the team to be and I know about the Eagles and we'll get to the Eagles in the show And the NFC East is super crazy and interesting, but to me I don't know the way that they're looking the Niners are coming. They're you know, they're only four and four I'm looking they have a lot of work to do, but they're getting healthy and I think this is their conference for the taking That being said We'll talk about the Eagles now who made it clear yesterday. They're the team to beat As well or it's it's I'm picking the Niners over the Eagles right now Even though, you know the AJ Brown thing definitely tilted things in their scale In the offseason at least or how far that was concerned But people are questioning Jalen Hertz arm they have for the longest time for touchdowns everybody shut up It was a blowout three of those touchdowns to said difference maker AJ Brown and there were no cheapies here All four of Hertz touchdowns were passes from 25 yards or longer So that puts them in some pretty elite company, right? Take a look at that if you continues to throw like this and I think I've said this every week here on the show The Eagles with the way they counter on the ball with the way they play defense with the way they play for their coach It's gonna be tough. Those are the two teams that I like the most in the NFC and the rest of the NFC They're making waves as well We got a reminder of why the Dak Cooper rush Conversation was probably silly the Cowboys put up 49 points in a win over the Bears behind a really sharp day from Prescott Did not so silly convo though was whether or not Zeke should get his starting job back Tony Pollard We told you we told you put him in your daily fantasy lineups last week And he went off for 147 yards and three touchdowns Ellie it was sidelined with a knee injury But we have all week for that discussion whether it should be Zeke or Pollard It's sort of been brewing over the past several seasons But if you look at the rest of the east the commanders pulled off an insane comeback I like looked up and they won that game. It was insane might have been the night will who knows Can I get a night will sponsorship on the show night? Will an ex-edrant really fuel my life here over the past couple of months here But they have rattled off 10 points like that in the final five minutes to take down Elinger the Ironman the Josh Allen of college football according to Jordan Spieth Yeah, so there's that's a Washington if you're looking at the what's going on there They're four and four which is insane too, and that means what does this mean? There's four NFC East teams that will be in playoff spots entering week 10. Is that normal has that happened? It's insane. So we're getting all of that Yeah, a new pair of Jordans for high-nikey as you're seeing the blue and white Jordan's per Adam Schefter It's where I go for all of my sneaker news Adam Schefter of ESPN And there was news here with the up and Adams family because my parlay oh My god, I could I almost died thinking about this yesterday. We did a parlay. We thought about it Hamilton, please come sit down Hamilton's here in New York, of course And it was simple. This was my what was my third crack at this. Yeah, okay my third crack at this And I said Cooper cup 80 plus receiving Henry hunts so those happened. I'm texting you like a mad woman. Yeah Literally The Henry one hit early hundred yards easy he went over 200 on the day that was knocked out immediately McCaffrey hit his Right at the beginning of the second half and Cooper cup had 73 yards at halftime. So we're thinking we're good 73 so then we have a show call right so we all on Sunday and everybody's like in the worst move because they're like I hate you why do we have to be on a call on Sunday so everyone's like really low energy and whatever and we're sitting there watching this as It unfolds and I say to Hamilton or to everybody I said he's gonna have a catch and it's gonna be a six-yard catch Did I not say that yes, I said he's and I manifested it like the idiot that I am so basically We came up one yard short on this parlay and that's what you call and I'm obviously I'm learning guys So it's called a bad bad beat a bad beat. Yeah one yard The entire half just needed seven yards Right at the end of the fourth quarter makes a six-yard catch then Exits the game with a little bit of my hands are over my eyes They're telling me what's happening as the game is going on and then they say that they took a knee and then the rims taken knee Down 17 points, which is which I also don't see ever happen never anyway I was very upset about this and then by a Fandall team that we you know put the parlays together with every week that we're trying to like have fun with this And I'm learning they hit me up. I woke up to this. They're so cool And you have to tell me how I mean I would think this is pretty rare But they decided and they're awesome that anyone who backed my same game parlay is going to have that wager Refunded as free bets. Yeah, basically what that means is you'll get your stake amount back as free bets And it'll be and anybody who took you know a couple bucks and wanted to have some fun on this yesterday It'll be back in your account in the next 24 hours and Fandall you're badass and awesome for doing that Yeah, no, that's incredible. That doesn't happen that much That just tells you how bad of a beat it was to you that they're willing to do this And it also sounds like we're gonna get to have some more fun. Yes, so I'm looking at burn sage and see an exorcist today I'm sure I can find one in New York City very quickly It'll probably be on yelp if anybody has a good exorcist We're gonna go right around the corner here Probably want here haunting this very lot that we're in for the next week on this show Hamilton, we are gonna have some fun tonight with a parlay a Monday night same game parlay Bangles heavy. Yes, and there might be something that rhymes with Schmad Schmuster Which I've never heard of outside of Pat McAfee, so keep your eyes on that on the app and stuff Hamilton to be here with me all weekend up next Again like my curse of being in New York the Giants team lot team lost and so did that jet squad So we're gonna talk about the NFC East the Seahawks Gino and all of that with Victor Cruz Join out by Super Bowl champion a pro bowler apparently who went to the Pro I don't know that all around Giants hero the pride of Patterson, New Jersey the guy who gets all the best tables at all The toughest restaurant to get into in the tri-state area and the voiceover. I by believe a rug rats character Which is like your favorite thing Yeah, I don't think that people know about your door the Explorer saga Wardling Yeah Look at the depths of YouTube probably somewhere. There's me speaking Spanish Pretending to be some sort of monster or giant beanstalk type of character. It's a very exciting We have you here. We got to talk to New York. Do you get so when you know, we're sitting here in the break and in our Control rooms like oh, we saw this Celebration is kind of and we'll show it here. Don't show yet. We'll show it But it's like oh anytime anyone sees a salsa they correlated to you Do you embrace that still are you sick of it? No embrace that really of course, of course It still happens every day somewhere So I'll call you out and say this is also for me. Yeah, like they just yell saw So so so in the middle of street at stores rest of the mall. I'm just like all right, whatever What if you don't feel like hitting it? What if you're in a bad mood? I don't always just hit like you want it You're getting like this is not Not necessarily like that but sometimes what I do now if you're gonna make me feel awkward You're gonna dance with me. Oh I'm not gonna ask you to dance, but I am gonna ask your thoughts on it Jamal Williams one of my favorite players we interviewed him had a really nice sit down last week And he as part of his celebration. We love seeing Jamal Williams getting the ends on by the way Jay Swaggy Okay, that's it was enough. It was a little too step there, but it was great What do you mean? It was enough. It was just like, you know, it was just two little hits It's just too little bomb bomb, you know, they bang bang and then he got into a secondary celebration How many doesn't need to be at least four at least four two three four steps. You make the you make I'm glad to see you smiling and I'm glad to see you dancing because before the show and you by the way Thanks for coming before me. I'm a punctual person and then showing up. He calls it. He's like I'm here I'm like, I'm still downtown sorry Um You you're smiling and you're here, but we were talking before it came on the air and you you we you weed it up with the Giants Yeah, is it always gonna be we is that just how it goes with that organization for the most part? I mean, it's just you know I think I've just developed such a rapport with that organization both as a player, obviously But now six years removed while six years It's not crazy how it kind of flies by but I've been ingrained in different ways and seeing that entire Organization from the other end and realizing how great they are from the outside looking in You know just working on the broadcast team and watching the games with the ownership and just being a part of that cloth It's just it's just a beautiful thing. We had Vernon Davis on last week And you know, he's Super Bowl champion like you removed og and I asked you know He's also similarly to you it can go. You meet Burleson like you are your arty You have other passions. You always have your entire career when you were playing on the field But I was like, do you dream about football? Do you think about going back and he said yes? And I'm like what I was so blown back for that six years removed now Do you you're good, right? Or do you still have like you don't dream about it? I definitely don't dream about it But there are like a couple weeks ago when they played at home and it was like a crisp fall day It was like the sun was shining there was a buzz that met life I'm on the field and I'm like man, I wish I was getting ready for this game Like there's just certain moments and game days that I'm like I miss these days I miss those like late October kind of days in the afternoon 1 o'clock game You're getting ready. It's a little crisp in the air, you know, a little cold, but not too cold I always have my best games in those in those weather. Yeah, the trade deadlines like 24 hours from now So I just want to get those news bites out there that baby Victor Cruz is interested in joining some of those teams walking on and Helping you that if you had to play anywhere now, where'd you go? That's not New York because I would say I would go back to you go back to New York But if it wasn't New York if that's what you're asking me because that feels like a layup So I would choose you kind of in my head like it's not that you threw shade at Chicago But you're saying like, you know how great the Giants organization is and how they treated you based on things like you were there for a cup of coffee So Where would you go pick your I'll probably go like obviously a contender because you want to just go and be Relevant immediately, but I said Kansas City. I go to Kansas City really run around with him for you know I mean just running around the field getting open for that guy for a week for a year. Why my home's over Alan Is it the weather? I bet it is. I mean, that's probably what it's cold in Kansas City, too Like and but especially buffers even colder buffalo obviously, but I just think not no shade to Josh, of course But I think Patrick my home's just they both play fun brands of football But I think Patrick my home's is the one that I would like to play with the most just him running around the way He kind of manages the team the way he gets everybody in place The way he just makes something out of nothing and has trust in his receivers That he's gonna give them the ball no matter what they do no matter how they get open. He's gonna find them I'm here for that. Where should Victor Cruz go? Giants who says you'd go back there there'd be the number one choice They've been so good and so exciting and I know that you've loved to see it But yesterday was a bit of a struggle right a little buzz kill 27 to 13 the final score in Seattle There's still six and two, but we saw Seattle take care of business. They bottle up Saquon Daniel Jones really couldn't get much going. What does that loss do as far as your feelings for what this giant squad can do in 2022? It worries me just a little bit. Obviously, they've gotten all to a six and two start Which is incredible given the past couple years that they've been playing and how and what brand of football they've been putting out Down the football field. So that's good. I think after this loss You kind of just you deal with it you look at the film you learn from me dissect it You make sure everyone understands that this loss is a loss and we have to learn from it But you got a flush it they got the bi-week coming up now They get two full weeks to kind of recover everybody gets a break It's time to heal those wounds and get out there and play again the night the following week But I just think they have to understand that you know They have to do something offensive they have to switch things up and kudos to Pete Carroll and that defense again Those guys ready. I mean they knew that our best asset was our running here and say Juan and you know How those guys run the football how we run the football and they bottled us up They put eight nine guys in the box dare to sit through and as you know, we don't have the best wide receivers out there I mean those guys have worked hard and they bring their lunch peloton every day But there's no one out there that you have to kind of mark your you know mark your roster for like Okay, we got to watch this and that leaves you know opportunities for that defense kind of pin their ears back and go out I'm sad Sterling's not out there same man. He deserves this six and two season Absolutely, he's one of the obviously one of the veterans on that football team crazy Even say as I seen him as a rookie to see him now as a vet is like why am I getting older as he didn't know? Yeah, but it's unfortunate. They can't be out there with this team, but they feel his presence for sure What do you think they need to focus on you mentioned the bi-week? It's a great point They can reset they had two costly mistakes in this game that we hated to see like if you were Dave all We're dressing like him for Halloween Which I'm sure you are what do you think they have to work on down the stretch? Well, I think they have to well with this trade deadline. Let's hope they just find a receiver somewhere You want them to get some I would love for them to add a big playmate. Maybe it's a tight end Maybe it's a receiver or maybe just a big bodied or able-bodied receiver that can play A name because it's interesting. I don't know who that is. I mean I mean the who's out there with Jerry Somebody that has a the skyline of New York tattooed on his back potentially. I don't know Doesn't Odell have that oh he does he doesn't have the skyline of New York on his back. I think it does I mean that would be incredible I don't I mean does Odell want to come back and play in New York City Does he believe in Daniel Jones? Does he think he's the guy does he believe in the overall team? That's before them that they're a good fit in this locker room with table and Dale Jones I think he would I think Obviously has a familiar face in there in Saquon and other familiar faces across that team that he's he's familiar with I think he would kind of fit right right back into that mode, especially with the energy and you know The culture that's there now. I think it's exactly something that he'd be excited. What's the most impressive thing about this team you think in 2022 the most impressive thing about the Giants to me is that how scrappy they are I think they've you know Understood that they're a scrappy bunch that they've bought into coach day balls Philosophies and they believe in each other and they believe wholeheartedly that they're gonna come into every game and win and be competitive And be at the top of the game and I think that's that's the most shocking part Should we just FaceTime Odell and ask him Let's hit him up see if he's he's not trained He thinks I'm kidding but like I wanted like I wanna you weren't into him ever no Yeah, I haven't run into him in a while and rehabbing and stuff out in LA But I'd speak to him often. Where would you put as you could pick where Odell's gonna go once he's done rehabbing? He needs to go to Kansas City Really? He needs to go to the Kansas City chiefs. He needs to be part of that organism I mean, I don't know if that affects obviously they just got Carderius Tony in the whole thing But I think him I mean could you imagine think about it like sit here and So Nicole Harman, Cadaris Tony and and Odell and Odell and Travis Kelsey and get it done Yeah, I thought Travis Kelsey was was at Saturday Night Live. Who tweeted last night? After they Odell but can we see it? While you FaceTime and where's his where's the burgers? Damn Buffalo People a lot of people are saying he'll follow Vaughn to Buffalo and get another ring I mean Buffalo would be an incredible landing spot. I mean the wealth of players and He won't get lost in the sauce there. You got digs. You got I mean, I think he's in a different place in his career So I don't think he needs to be the man I just think he wants to be out to be competitive and let's be clear like they can pick him up at the Trade deadline, but they're not giving him the long-term deal. So he'll come in win a chip potentially Why not Green Bay? I would love him to be in Green Bay too. I mean They're not contenders I mean, they're great to he'd want it'd be great because he'd go play with a Hall of Famer and Aaron Rodgers And they'd be catching balls left and right, but I don't think that team is constructed Well enough even with the addition of Odell to make it deep into the playoffs or Super Bowl So Kansas City Buffalo, but yeah, and you'll go back to New York. We've really figured this all out I want to ask you this because we're gonna take a break and come back You mentioned they're scrappy. I want honest like be honest Daniel Jones So much criticism over the past couple of seasons thriving doing it with his legs doing it through the air We're you know, we're to believe like what where are you at with Daniel Jones? I think they need to lock Daniel Jones in long term I think that right now they can get him at a great price. I think he understands exactly what type of player He is I think coach Debo has designed this offense or molded this offense And Kafka as well molded this offense into something that he could be successful in and I think we still haven't seen them with viable Receivers viable targets on the outside for him to throw the ball to that makes something out of nothing that fight for him And you look at trades like AJ Brown to Philly and how that elevated them right you look at trades like Stefan Diggs the Buffalo how that elevated them So we need that trade that elevates our receiving core and and get this on the right track Daniel Jones is the face of the franchise because He understands New York City in a short amount of time He understands how to behave here how to react to the media but by not reacting Yeah, really and how to galvanize and and prove to his team that he's there for them Now he's a team guy does your mind you have Eli everyone wants to say that but you know Eli really well There's some reminiscences there obviously the temperament how he's just chill even killed doesn't show a lot of emotion handles the media with with honesty, but still Keeping it everything about the team and about putting the owners on his back. That's what you want You know, do you think Eli? You know like you've moved on you're doing a million things your golf game all of it You're traveling always it's improving. We had Jordan's peace on last week. It was super fun When you look at Eli and how he's like taken over media and he's doing all these things Do you get the feeling he's missed it like he misses being on the field or is the transition like not no shot Again, I think he misses moments like days like when we were out in London and they're in we're in that stadium Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, and it was just like this place is incredible. What a joy would be to play in this game But moments like that happen, but I think wholeheartedly for the most part Eli's Absolutely fine doing exactly He's having a way too much fun right now the floor with Victor Cruz after this. We're gonna talk a little Halloween We're gonna I think you and Brian Dave will costume would be sick that take a lot of makeup though I gotta go ball. It'd be fun But I think you'd get like every girl's number in the bar like every girl would be like asking you to hang out for sure We I sat down with T Higgins before the Jamar Chase thing happened We've got good news on Jamar Chase. We'll talk about it. We got a big game between the Browns and the Bengals tonight. We'll be back Welcome back up and Adams on a Halloween Paul Dayner of the athletic is saying the Bengals feel T Higgins at this point is a legit number one understandably a right Police sodas T Higgins. We're about to find out If they are right in a high levered spot That's right. Jamar Chase is out for several weeks not put on IR Which is great great news for these Bengals and boy T Higgins and Chase were on pace for 1,100 yards a piece before this happened Before the injury I sat down with T Higgins to discuss tonight's matchup What's going on where his heads at how unselfish these wide receivers are how about that unselfish wide receivers? We talked about that we so we dove into all of it. Remember this was last week We'll talk about the game tonight right after this take a look Going on Well, I'm the biggest Bengals fan obviously which one do you like better you need my demo The white one Like do you are y'all telling them you want to wear those every day? We want to the only thing the only thing with those though when we put them on the helmets are so tight because it was new Okay, so you are coming off back-to-back wins and I'm very excited for you How what is the vibe around the team right now? You know, it's great energy in a locker room. You know, everybody's high-spirited We still got that game face, you know grinding because we know we got no things to do more to do so Yeah, T I was listening to really closely to your post game presser last week You know, you're asked about it's a if it's a reminder to the rest of the league how dangerous you are And you said it was a reminder to ourselves. What did you mean by that? Obviously, we haven't had like, you know too many big games to where you know all three of us as receivers You know go off like me there last week But you know as a reminder to ourselves that it's possible that we can do this, you know each and every week So how dangerous are you? there Yeah, we're dangerous, I'm gonna just say that This wide receiver trio is the sub dreams are made up It is the best wide receiver trio in the league. You are each on pace to put up over 1,100 yards It does not happen in the NFL How does that balance work because I've followed the team very closely and I'd cheer you guys on and I've never really heard Someone saying they're not getting the ball enough enough targets. They need the love. So how does that balance work? We just unselfish We know sometimes a game is not gonna be our game like one game might not be my game It might be chases and TVs and one game it might be my game and it's not gonna be theirs We know it's gonna go like that. But so we just just unselfish We're gonna cheer each other on no matter what and you know if somebody's doing something wrong We're gonna correct each other and you know just go about it that way you and Jamar are very competitive as well We saw some stuff on the social media about you two playing ping-pong. What is your favorite thing to compete against women? It's ping-pong. We play ping-pong every single day He loses a lot but Other than that, it's really that sometimes we have we compete on you know who? Who had who scores the first touchdown or you know who has the most yards just things like that to give us more You know motivation to go crazy in the game. So yeah Why are football? Everywhere everybody's playing ping-pong. Why are football players obsessed with ping-pong right now? I actually I don't know I always liked the game since I was younger But I've been seeing that a lot lately too that everybody's been playing and I thought we was the only team But there's really all the teams out here. But does it get crazy like are people invested? It gets intense Actually two-on-two games we play some two-on-two games. It gets very intense. What's the best two-on-two even a part of? Apparently me and our coach Troy Walters the receiver for verse verse Tyler Chase That's me. Does Joe get it on this action? No, I bet he doesn't know he's a single player. He's good That was good, what is Joe Burrow bad at? Good question. I don't know like he's like he can dress. He's cool. He says the right stuff He goes out there and balls often like off the field. He's not bad at anything You can shoot basketball. You can play ping-pong. He plays chess by itself Like he plays chess by himself in front of people like he is sit at his locker and just play chess learning moves With like a cigar like LSU locker room style or just straight Just sitting in his locker like this Just looking at his chessboard Speaking I'm like Joe. What are you doing, bro? Do you ever say like do you want to play me bro? And he says no he just wants to do it himself. No, I don't know how to play chess. I don't even ask him to play against him I'll play with my checkers. How do you build chemistry with somebody who's a singles player like that? Just you know going out there in practice connecting the practice every single day and you know just and then off the field You know hanging out with him on Taco Tuesdays like me him meet him in Chase with the Taco Tuesday yesterday and just you know Just bonding, you know and and things like that and who's who's making that happen like are you saying? Joe, let's go do this or is it just it's definitely chase Really? Yeah, it's definitely chase the chase is the social one kind of he's the one Playing for the Taco Tuesday for sure How many tacos do y'all go through the three of you together yesterday? Um I had three chase had three Yeah, I think we all had like three or four You guys can do that. You guys need to add some offensive line into that thing. That's amazing It's your thoughts on this your quarterback. He's the AFC offensive player of the week We love to see it. We wanted to continue and we've allowed to do with that What are your thoughts on Jobar with the grills? I actually haven't seen him wear them. I want him to wear it in the game Have you told him that? No, I'm not yet Uh, I don't think that's I'm I'm no dentist It's probably not a good idea. It's probably not a good idea Second down to 19 behind the chains that pass is complete for a first down So you lose nine on the sack and then you find team Higgins over the middle and move the sticks Who inspires you the most? I think I think I know it's your mom, right? Yeah, definitely What's your relationship like what what is the season like with her? Is she washing every game coming to every game? Yeah, so every home game she comes to it because in the way game is close. She comes to but Any far one seat she she wants to come to but I just say just you know, just just chill at home I call you before the game and if we go from there, she always give me that motivation talk before a game Harry and my sister and I go out there and do my thing T Higgins breaks the tackle. He's at the 10 the 5 Touchdown you got the browns on monday my friend mr. T Higgins. You you know, you've done a lot of things You got to the super bowl. You're on pace for all these yards. You're amazing But you've never beaten the browns in your nfl career three straight losses. How does that note about you? Um, there's definitely something I've thought about You know, I actually said it today to want to tile it and um, that's you know I've really looking forward to beating these guys. Um, just like you said, I lost to him three straight times Haven't beaten him yet in my career. Um, it's going to be nice to get a win versus these guys so Looking forward to it's going to be a great matchup, but Hey, we got to get the job done Winning a single game in the nfl is really hard But I was looking at your schedule this morning and I was like Oh really? I think you guys are about to really start to go somewhere Do you think does this feel like a team that could make it all the way? Yeah, but sure, um, I feel like we got all the pieces to the puzzle Um, we just got to put it together and you know to come together as a team and and And make this run again I'm wishing you so much luck get those 1,100 yards plus like I would love to see 14 out of you We've seen it's just you're you're you're awesome and I'm a huge fan So thank you for taking the time and I know you're tired after practice So I appreciate it. Thank you Now he's got a shot to prove that he can be a true number one I think he is victor cruise. You're a wide receiver. These three guys are studs They've got the browns tonight jamar chase out and everyone's like, oh, the sky's falling. Is it? um No, I think that t higgins and tyler boyd are tremendous wide receivers that can pick up the slack It's a difference when you when jamar chase is your focal number one guy Which he is but when you don't have any other talent surrounding that to keep the defense is honest The fact that they have two other viable playmaking receivers and t higgins just going to get a you know Both of them are going to get more targets But t higgins is going to be the guy that they look at to make those big plays that he's used to making At a higher clip maybe that he's used to because jamar chase is up He's going to get more attention from defenses. Maybe they you know They're Hayden hearse there that maybe they focus on the run game a little bit more Is there any world where and you know, I love the bangles like maybe i'm too optimistic here Is there any world where it's not a bad thing that for a couple of weeks three four five He doesn't have jamar chase because he does develop chemistry in different ways with other guys Not that he only he clearly doesn't only focus on jamar chase those guys are racking up yards and catches every week But maybe there's some good to it Yeah, in a sense, obviously you never want. Yeah, you never want your best guy out That's never part of the plan, but I do understand your point and All right, we know he has chemistry with jamar chase. I mean they've been together since college years obviously So he has that rapport with him But it's good to kind of get other guys involved in the mix a little bit more developed to build more and more Trust in your guys and you already do and sometimes as a receiver as an athlete Playing on that offense You just want to feel like he sees you and that you're a part of this thing and that we need You want to feel needed to win or needed to play well in order for this team to play better And I think having that feeling as a receiver is special Do you think that they have that you know last year was special We kind of saw it build slowly throughout the year Do they have that because they've gotten better Every week this year and they had some challenges at the offensive line But can they compete in this a of c that we are talking about I believe they can I believe in joe burrow I like the things that he does out there like the way he leaves his team They can keep him upright and keep him with his eyes looking downfield to make plays and not left and right making sure that You know, no defenders are coming after him. I think they'll be okay I don't know you didn't pick him as a destination to go. You didn't say I want to catch balls with joe burrow I know there's so many young talents to receive as I but do you think since the natty's another subo contender this year I do I didn't I don't like the jamar chase. I want to see how it goes tonight against the browns But I think you know, everyone wants to sail against the falcons Let's stop because I I came in and that last week and I was heated. I said they're going to go to the super bowl again You put your flag in the dirt. I did. Yeah, I did it last year too around this time Where I thought they could go all the way and they have what it takes I believe in joe the only question the jamar chasing doesn't bother me as much as the zack taylor thing I think there needs to be some Really good play calling for this team and I want to see that out of him And I really want to see it tonight against the browns when he doesn't have his guy Taking all the attention off defenses. So we'll see you tonight big one on monday night But where we cap from week eight sunday action and we got to get to some halloween moments around the league Are you dressing up tonight? Yeah, what are you gonna be? Michael Jackson and off the wall. You're gonna be dancing. Where are you going? I'm going to a couple different places. Are you the cities of melting pot for activities? This is the one that I don't want to be in our city It's a very fun and festive halloween weekend in the NFL. Here's a generic canadian costume You might like this mean that's going around and all the free advertising for spirit halloween They really need a generic canadian warm hat canadian tuxedo, which is actually what I wear every other day And what was that poutine? Which is delicious You would like that you're like, huh? What do you say? Kind of I don't think you can talk to me during the show one of in new york because there's such a delay I just can't know all you're what you're saying, but I love you I'm so much. All right So the eagles took care of the stealers 35 to 13 that there's a true representation of the dark knight protector of the people Uh, I present to you. We're just doing halloween costumes here. This is jason kelsey um This is what he is this what he wore on the field. Is that true or do we put that on him? I don't even know what's going on here. This is where that actually wore that They have a batman cape. He does a podcast with his brother travis. Have you heard of that? Yeah, of course So good. It's really good. I think it's the number one sports podcast. Really? They're killing it. Yeah Love those two and they get the best out of each other. If you were a superhero, what superhero would you be? Uh, I would be wow, that's actually a great question. I would be I would be batman. I would actually be batman. I love batman gadgets one b I would be quail man also who quail man quail man people not know quail man. Am I too old? Who is quail man from dug from? Oh, I know a dug up. Hamilton's like, oh, I know who it is Yeah, okay. Sure. And what is his superpower? I couldn't tell you. Okay. Oh, great I have to be all to be there. Well, he had a couple. I think he could like look through mine He could read your mind. It's not really it was it's really more the outfit. He had like the belt He had a bore belt around the side. Maybe they have you can do like a kith collection For for dug for dug and kith. Wow, that's actually a great idea Not a terrible one. Uh, and here is lane johnson speaking of jason kelsey. Let's bring that back This is him dressed up as jason kelsey. What you love to see. It's a good one, right? I love this. This is really good all the way down to the thong slippers too. Those are those are good Are jason kelsey and travis kelsey the two more opposite people in the planet, but somehow it works together It's like are you guys brother? Like are you guys actually related? But they absolutely are and they bring they're literally the two contrasting personalities that bring the best out of you The only thing that would have been better than this and I love lane johnson is if travis dressed like jason and jason dressed like travis I don't I think that should be a thing that what jason hasn't thought about that already Like that would be all like there's there's time tonight. Dior or like something crazy. That's Vadid Something crazy. I would like to see that. All right. This is I thought this was fake Jerry james We know him we love him owner of the dallas cowboys. He dressed as a blind referee Wait, this isn't fake. What are your thoughts on this seriously? Isn't that insane? My thoughts on this is he's fed up with the rest He's like i'm gonna get at y'all the most the safest way possible without getting fined or without getting You know backlash for it and i'm gonna be a boy if a player did this It would not happen. It would not be okay. Why? I don't I just feel like it you know jerry can do whatever you want. I don't know that a player could get away with that In honor of jet's head coach robert salla who is apparently keeping receipts as he said this hand brought that to life in a costume Which we love to see he dressed as uh, yeah, and that's radio show post michael k signing it. Is that true? All right, we love it. So uh, so yeah, so the jet's fans. I mean they lost too. What's going on? They did because I came here might want to have to bring those receipts back and itemizing and look them over a little bit Is it because I came here? I think so if you'd kind of jink the whole new york market The whole new york sports market and go into the next game on wednesday. Please don't why because you're gonna jink Who are they playing? I don't even know the hawks. Maybe see what i'm saying Do they play the hawks? Are they in their division? I don't know anything about that energy around the game already The conference, how do they even do how do they do the schedule me and me? I have literally have no idea There's nothing I know of them in the game on my birthday 11 11. When is your birthday? November 11? You just had to get that out there, didn't you? Yeah for the masses. Do you want to give me a gift? Wish him a happy birthday 11 11. Uh, what else do you want to talk about? What are you? What are you up to? A little bit of everything just staying busy staying You know staying staying attached to sports still working with the broadcast team at the giants I went out to london as their um, alumni ambassador things like that did the coin toss It was a lot of fun. What that's the that's the responsibility I come out and do that's one of them. I come out to do the coin toss and i'm around like dexter lauren So i'm like bro. You gotta you gotta move. I can't see And as soon as I get to the side of him and roddy slicks. He goes y'all got victor cruise out here He takes my hand. He's like, what's that bro good to see I was like, yeah, just here flipping the court. By the way, I thought the coin toss was I get to actually flip the coin Doesn't that works? I don't know. I would think that's how it sounds like doing the coin toss It's like I was ready to read. I was reaching for it from the ref and he was like What are you talking so he does it you don't even get to do it I just stand there and look great. Who did they have on the other two they have for the packers? It was I don't think they had a celebrate. I mean I don't know why I just floated that one. I'm never gonna let that one down. They don't have to let me down. They have another alumni. I'm not gonna let them just say. Yes You're like, uh, yeah, Jordy Nelson wasn't there for their team. They didn't have them. Craig Jennings didn't show up for their story. Brian Bumgarder from the office was not there to represent the packers for Lil Wayne. Where was Lil Wayne? Where was he at? He was in the suite probably with his cheese hat on. Where was he? What did you make of Aaron Rodgers on the field? Does he seem enlightened like everyone's talking about? No, I'm with Kurt Warner. He looks exhausted. Is that what Kurt said? Kurt said that him and Tom Brady just look exhausted. I was like that's the word I don't know why I didn't think of that word before when I watched them play, but they just look spent man They just look like especially because their teams in general aren't as competitive as they would probably like them to be So they're out there just trying to do above and beyond and they look exhausted. You think they're cooked for the year? I think both teams are cooked for the year. And is his career maybe hanging up after this year? I think they both retire after this. You think Brady and Rodgers retire after this? Why? Well, I think, well, Brady, for obvious reasons, I think Brady's just like spent. You think Brady finally this year is like I'm exhausted and I feel like... Correct. I mean, go chill, dawg. It's okay. But he could have said that three years ago. And he should say it now. You should say it now. I mean, I would like, I just want them to do it however they want. I don't want it to be some injury. I don't want it to be some like bad. Yes, of course. You never want that. You never want that. You want them to leave on their own accord. Exhausted. We'll be back with Celebrity. Victor Kruse. I can't believe it's in there. After this, don't go anywhere. We'll wrap it up. We're going to play Tinder on your phone. Can you... Nope. Don't have it. I just deleted it about two years ago. What do you mean? We got that coming up. Elijah Moore on his chemistry. I don't get the ball. I don't know. I don't know why we're showing this, but we'll be back after this. There's a lot of names on the trade block, which is Tomorrow, which is insane. We are here with Celebrity. Coin toss for the giant. Celebrity. By the way, we'll just tell you quickly. I don't know much time is left in the show, guys, and I don't hear anything, so somebody will have to tell me. Three minutes left. Victor Kruse that we asked in the break, we were trying to figure out who the celebrity was for the packer side of that one new game, and it was... It was actually James Jones. It was my God, James Jones. They didn't have a celebrity. No, but the thing was, he wasn't necessarily at the 50-yard line for the coin toss. You just think this is a fun thing. I do. Also, I want to congratulate you. You do a show for the giants with Madeline Burke, but you also do a show that's in Spanish, right? Yes, Saba Los Conlos Giants. And you won an Emmy. Apparently, we won a Spanish Emmy. I'm really proud of you for that. That's really amazing. Thank you. I appreciate it. We've got to get you that Emmy. I think it's okay for us. Take it. Take my money now. I need it for the mantle. All right, let's do it quick. We're going to do a bit of trade dating here with the Green Bay Packers. So you look there. I will look here. Okay. And let's do this. We're going to swipe left, and you'll have to tell me if that's good or bad. I don't know if it's left passing or not, but this is... Okay, Elijah Moore to the Packers. What do you think about that? I don't think it happens. I just think, you know, just adding another mid-level receiver for them doesn't get them over the hump. I think they need someone that's going to really make an explosion in that receiving core. Elijah Moore is a good receiver. I don't think it brings the Packers over the hump. It doesn't solve the problem. Exactly. So we're swiping left. Left. Left is a no. You know how to do. You have Tinder. I've never had Tinder. I wish I did. I wish I was more fun. Okay, how about this? This is Kenny Galladay. Okay, so a huge cap hit. So, you know, he has never had a thousand-year season since 2019. He's just got two touchdowns the last three years. What do you think? Yeah, this is a tough one. Obviously, you haven't even been able to see him play it. See if he even has anything left in the tank. So that's, you know, troublesome or worrisome for me, in my opinion. And as you said, huge cap hit on a guy that hasn't proven himself in the last couple years doesn't solve the problem. Yeah, and it's like, I don't know what you have left Kenny Galladay. We need to swing the biggest. So let's see. We've seen lots of potential, but we'll have to look here. How about Jerry Judy? Jerry Judy. This is the next guy. So we swipe to him. Yeah, we're going left on Galladay. Now, he's got potential. Big time. And I think this would be a tremendous pickup for Green Bay. If a trade does happen, I think he provides that believability on the outside to keep defenses on this. And he's a playmaking machine. So anytime you pair that up with a guy like Aaron Rodgers, it could be successful. Okay, so the more I'm looking at this, the more I think this is what should happen. I think we're swiping right on this one. Right. Because I think it's potential. I think it's Aaron Rodgers. I think he needs a fresh start too. So are we good on that? We're good on that. We're good on that. But no Odell. No Odell. Why won't you call Odell for me? Don't really call him. He's in the middle of a strenuous ability. Do you really think so? He's working out. If you were to guess where he is, he's doing a workout. 100%. I love that you know that. 100%. I love that that's like his thing. Yeah. How much time do we have left? I have no idea. 30 seconds. I'm sorry. 30. Thank you for coming on the show. My pleasure. Thank you for having me. To my place. This is great. You thought it wasn't a real show. But it looks like a pretty real show to me. I was like, are you sure she has a real show? I'm like, let me pull up and like really see what's going on. I apologize to James Jones. James Jones, my brother. I don't know if I owe you an apology, but I love you to death. And I wish you nothing but success. And good seeing you out in London, my bro. Victor Cruz. And nobody not coming probably to an NFL team near you, but if you come with an Oscar and then a Grammy after this, we'll be back tomorrow right here in New York. Bye guys.
