You're saying he's like a bad locker?
I think maybe the fucking bad Giants culture.
I'm not saying he's a bad locker.
I'm speculating that's maybe why part of the reason they did this.
Because his play was down last year.
And I kind of think that might just be what it was.
It's also, it's also, it's more than that too.
It's,
as the, as defenses in the NFL go towards this thing where it's all about math hyphens, we've talked about this, where if you're going to, if you're going to have seven guys dropping back, you have to be able to get pressure with four.
If you have a really good guy in the inside, that changes everything in terms of what you can do in the back end.
Obviously that's sort of implied with what you're saying, but it just gives a team so much more flexibility and, um,
ability to disguise what they're doing in the back end when you have a guy like that who can just wreck shop, just collapse a pocket and you can just rely on him to do that.
We saw that with the Seahawks.
They had a bunch of guys that could do that.
So this is huge.
And the other thing with the Bengals, which I think is, I mean, it's being discussed, but the Ravens just lost their center.
Yeah, and so now this is an interesting variable.
You go into the Bengals playing in the AFC North, and you got Dexter Lawrence going up against whoever the Ravens have going next year at center, and that's a huge advantage for the Bengals.
To be clear, I like it more for the Bengals.
I think the Giants getting a top 10 pick is a pretty good return still.
