Episode 34 (8/19/22): Patriots-Giants Recap, Giants Win 23-21, Joe Judge vs. Matt Patricia, NFL’s Most Underrated CB Adoree’ Jackson, Patriots-Panthers & Giants-Bengals Previews

In this episode, Joey breaks down last Thursday’s preseason opener between the Patriots and Giants at Gillette Stadium where New York won 23-21 on a last-second field goal by Graham Gano (0:43). He highlights the good (23:43-27:19), the bad (27:20-32:11), and which players stood out for both the Giants (1:44) and Patriots (32:12-35:33). Joey mentions the possibility of QB Tyrod Taylor getting reps with the first-team offense in Sunday’s game against the Bengals (25:24) and he explains why it is necessary since Daniel Jones has had his injury struggles. In addition to that, he explores what went wrong in the Joe Judge era and partly blames it on how ineffective and poor Mike Glennon and Jake Fromm were last season in replacement of Jones (4:30-9:18). Joey takes a 10-minute deep dive into explaining why Giants defensive back Adoree’ Jackson is one of the most underrated cornerbacks in the game (11:12-22:12) with tons of analysis, statistics and grades from Pro Football Focus (PFF).At the end, Joey previews tonight’s Panthers-Patriots game (35:35) and talks about what to expect with the Patriots starters likely going up against Carolina’s backups (36:38-40:03). He closes the episode by previewing Sunday’s Giants-Bengals game (40:04) and examining all of the Giants current injuries, which exhibit the Giants need for a new strength and conditioning staff.
