New York Post Giants beat writer Paul Schwartz and host Jimmy Failla recap Sunday’s brutal loss to the Cardinals.

The “Blue Rush” podcast team explains why the Giants transition from Eli Manning to Daniel Jones was a bit of a butt fumble and outlines the ways the Giants can recover after Danny Dimes’ worst day as an NFL starter.

Two-time Super Bowl Champ Carl Banks is a special guest and says everyone needs to be more patient with the defense. But not too much more after Big Blue’s third straight loss dropped them to 2-5.

If there’s something a guy like him can say in huddle

Banks: “Well, yeah, but there are not guys like me. I say that with much respect for the guys that are there. But, you know, this is a different era. I will probably get in trouble for some of the things I would say in the huddle to my teammates. And then respond, then I’d probably get in even more trouble because it probably would become a shoving match right there on the field.”

If Daniel Jones is regressing

Banks: “Oh, he’s certainly regressed. The decision making I think will come. The ball security issue is where now you have to sound the alarm. You’ve got to demand that he takes care of the football, because a lot of the things he’s seeing as a quarterback, he’s seeing for the first time. This is his sixth game. So every coverage, every player, he doesn’t know a lot about anybody other than what he sees on film. But that football he’s had in his hand his whole life? He’s got to be able to protect that. He’s got to know how to protect that.”

Whether it was the right time for the Giants to turn to Daniel Jones

Banks: Well, the decision that was going to be made. I think Eli knew it at some point. And I think at the point that they’d benched Eli, it wasn’t necessarily Eli’s fault. I said if Eli gets benched, it’s going to be because the defense isn’t playing well. And it just gave them an opportunity to put the next guy in, because they weren’t winning with Eli because the defense wasn’t playing well. Now that the defense is playing better, you get a chance to see the kid, but there’s nothing you can do about that in those situations. When that decision is made, they go for it. They were looking for the opportunity to do it. If they were undefeated, Eli is still on the field. It’s just that simple.

If the poor officiating is hurting the game

Banks: “It is hurting the game. This one is a little bit over-officiated because of the technology. Now they’re at a crossroads where the technology is available and they have made a ruling on some things and now all of a sudden they don’t even want to acknowledge the technology to correct the official. The thing that is impacting is that the game is growing at a pace and this is seen deliberate by the league. They’re inviting more fans because they’re giving them more avenues and more angles meaning, you know, things that they can do to get interested in the game and the peripheral fan now is becoming more interested because you can play fantasy football, because you can bet on the game. So if you’re going to have those fans and you’re growing your game at this pace and you’re generating more interest then you have to maintain the integrity of what you’re doing and if you don’t, you’re inviting people to say, ‘hey these games aren’t on the up and up,’ and there’s going to be a thousand conspiracy theories because you’re not being consistent even with the rules you put in place, you don’t even want to allow those to work.”
