FIRST TAKE | "Saquon Barkley is NIGHTMARE for Packers' defense!" - Stephen A. on Eagles' BIG win

yeah your team could I hear them yeah can you get another question please do you pay how what do you make of that what do you make it uh I mean it I I don't respect it honestly um I get it uh they want to see their team win um you know it's it's just a rough patch uh I mean it just is what it is quick take let's get it the boo birds out at metti in week one Dexter Lawrence did not respect Giants fans booing their team in the 28 to6 loss to the Vikings Shannon what you think about Lawrence's comments they didn't respect you guys as play that's what fans do they cheer they boo give them something to cheer about I don't know what's with the athlet think that every time no matter how poorly you play no matter the effort that you give you should be applauded for that no that's not how it works you're talking to Ay I've been booed I our office was so bad they were booing us and hell I was right there on the side they didn't hear me but I had my head down I was booing too boo yeah we suck today that's the way it works Dexter damn come on bro play better give them something to cheer about well you put it that way and you're not wrong let me put it a different way uh Dexter Lawrence I don't know if you know this do you know that in Daniel Jones last seven starts y'all are won and six one and six two touchdown passes nine turnovers in those last seven starts included eight pick sacked 35 times all right did you know that Dexter Lawrence oh by the way Dex Lawrence do you know that in the last eight starts y'all have been outscored by 168 points in games that Daniel Jones has started it's bad it's awful yeah I mean listen during football season the swamp Landings he say sh sh you you you you on the other side of the country so you wouldn't notice all right but on the East Side in East Rutherford New Jersey there's a stench emanating from the from from the swamps area there and it stinks up the joint and the good news you know for the for the state of New Jersey and the City of East Rutherford is that you don't have to blame politics or the area for the stench when football season arrives everybody blams the Giants yeah that's how bad they are the only thing posit the only thing positive of a Giants fan is I like the throwback uniforms Shannon I got another thing for you though to add more salt to our wounds saquin bar puts on a show with his new team in the division right up the road putting up three TDS in the Eagles close win over the Packers a formidable team Friday in Brazil jannon what do you think of saquon's eagles debut well this is what he's capable of he was rookie of the year he tore his knee up but we know he has explosive uh you talking about as an all-around back I think he ranked behind Christen mcaffrey he can run it he can run between the tackles he has a speed that can hit his head on the goal post he can catch it out of the back field as you seei as you see him run that Rim route up the sideline and catch a touchdown so nobody is surprised that sequan was able to do this he was just put in a situation he has competent quarterback play on a consistent basis and this is what you're going to get hey and another thing Dexter they're not only booing you they're booing the mar family and the tig family for getting rid ofin and paying Daniel Jones all that money don't think they're just booing you they're booing upper management and the Giants Organization for the mistakes that they've made over the years with some of the players that they made and let's give our condolences let's give our condolences to Brian D because he can coach he can coach it's just that he don't have any players we all know what time it is you don't have a team I mean they they the the Giants are horrible and we all saw you know up close in personal yesterday uh but the bottom line is that you couldn't play saquan Barkley the moment you decided to pay J Jones you wasn't going to be able to pay him and by the way why pay him to lose why pay him to be there they did sequan B favor he should love the Giants for the rest of his life but allowing him to get the hell out of there all right that's what he should do he should be grateful that they didn't that they let him go because you don't want to be a part of a situation like that it's horrible it really is certainly worked out for saquon yeah not much to care about uh let's get to college now I got a quick take for you Shannon Dylan rayola and the Corn Huskers took care of business at home sending shador Sanders in Colorado home with the L 28-1 Jay how concerning was the loss to Nebraska very concerning I concerned when I saw him against North Dakota State because the some of the the things that I saw last year they haven't gotten fixed they can't stop the run they can't consistently pressure the quarterback they can't protect the quarterback they can't uh uh they can't run the football well I mean what the hell is there to do if you can't run it you can't protect you can't pressure the quarterback you can't stop the run hell the only thing left is special teams and it's not like they're dynamic in those areas I'm very concerned I was very concerned week one but everybody told me I was overreacting I wanted to see okay in the second half they shut out North Dakota state but I still saw some things that concern me with their inability with their uh ability to consistently protect Shure shador is still doing the same thing he did last year he's holding on to the ball too long Stephen A it is okay incompletion throwaways sometimes are okay I don't believe any Talent evaluators are going to look at dur Sanders and say man you know what we can't take him as high as we normally would because his completion percentage when you evaluate the tape and understand that he's keeping you out of second and long third and long situations by throwing the football away it is okay to have incompletion and throwaways on your resume shadur but I am very very concerned I'mma challenge you on this one Shannon because of this reason okay you're holding on on to the ball because you're trying to make something happen part of the reason you're doing that Shannon is because you know your defense can't stop a cold that's why you get physical with Colorado you beat him up that's what you do and then on the offensive side of the ball they still can't protect them there's two things that you want to do if you want to protect the star your team who happens to be your son if you Prime Time Deion Sanders you want to buffer up that offensive line and you want to make sure you can run the football so you're protecting the quarterback in the passing game and you're alleviating some concerns that he may have because You' got a running game neither exists with Colorado you can't protect him the man was sack I mean he was BL he got they sacked him five they sacked him five times for the game they hit him so much more they had about three of those sacks in the first quarter they were running him out of the damn stadium for crying out loud just bum rushed up getting physical beating up the offensive line beating him up and there was little to nothing that Colorado could do about it and so I look at it from that standpoint shador Shannon was 13 for 13 on passes when he wasn't blitzed here's the problem he was blitzed 56% of the times you know why because you know they can't stop it they can't stop it and that's all I'm trying to say it's like I I yeah he got to get let get let go of the ball sooner but if you trying to make something happen because you know that your team is too small and that they going to get bum rushed once they get on the field defensively because teams are just going to beat them up like that you trying to do everything that you can to make something happen I get it foreign for spee for for for for spee fore spee foreign speech for more on for for for foree foree for
