NFL Live: New York Giants v LA Rams

:00:10. > :00:17.And it will be time for the two teams to settle it... The ball off

:00:18. > :00:24.the near side... And he's looking down field...

:00:25. > :00:29.Unbelievable! Yes, yes! How did he do that? He's

:00:30. > :00:40.got it. Hello and welcome to Twickenham for

:00:41. > :00:44.the second of this season's Bridgestone international series.

:00:45. > :00:47.Today the home of rugby hosts the NFL for the very first time. Much

:00:48. > :00:51.like our special relationship with our American friends, there's a lot

:00:52. > :01:05.more that connects the two sports than divides them.

:01:06. > :02:00.The New York Giants verses the LA Rams. A heavy-weight line-up. All

:02:01. > :02:04.three of my guests providing insight throughout the afternoon, along with

:02:05. > :02:08.special guests. Our two teams today play in the NFC conference in the

:02:09. > :02:14.NFL. They are in different divisions. The Giants are bottom of

:02:15. > :02:18.the NEC East. They are alive and kicking with a 3-3 record. They will

:02:19. > :02:21.consider themselves in the hunt for the playoffs. You can see the

:02:22. > :02:27.daylight between the Cowboys and so the latter may have to settle for a

:02:28. > :02:32.wildcard spot. In the NFL only the division winners are guaranteed a

:02:33. > :02:38.playoff. In the West, the Rams back in LA for the first time in season

:02:39. > :02:42.thasmt've had three wins and three defeats T Seahawks within touching

:02:43. > :02:47.distance in that division. It is a huge pressure on both teams today.

:02:48. > :02:52.One will travel back with a winning record. The Rams are the de facto

:02:53. > :02:57.home team. They have been in town all week, getting a lot of attention

:02:58. > :03:01.from the media, including our reporter, who went in search of one

:03:02. > :03:15.of their stars. That was Case Keenum.

:03:16. > :03:19.Welcome to the UK. How important it is for you to get here early to have

:03:20. > :03:23.the break after the weekend? Each time you don't win you don't

:03:24. > :03:27.accomplish all your goals. I think it takes time to look back, review

:03:28. > :03:32.the film and learn from your mistakes. Guys did that, and ready

:03:33. > :03:35.to move on. It will be on the practise field, ready to look

:03:36. > :03:39.forward to the next week and exciting that we're here in London.

:03:40. > :03:44.How different has it been knowing you have been starting as

:03:45. > :03:50.quarterback but Jared Goff is waiting in the wings? I find if you

:03:51. > :03:53.look too far behind, or look too far ahead, you get overwhelmed with

:03:54. > :03:57.things. I try to look right now on my job to do right now. And that is

:03:58. > :04:03.practise and then get ready for tomorrow. And we see you and Jared

:04:04. > :04:07.out in practise talking. Do you talk about this potential rivalry? You

:04:08. > :04:11.know, we both try to help each other out. It is good to have more than

:04:12. > :04:14.one set of eyes looking at a defense. I can see some things, he

:04:15. > :04:18.can see some things and sometimes when you are removed from the

:04:19. > :04:24.situation gooed to have an objective point of view of things. We help

:04:25. > :04:29.each other out. If you think back to 2012 when you were undrafted, you

:04:30. > :04:33.used that to your advantage. Is it about proving people wrong? A little

:04:34. > :04:38.bit. I like to prove people right. Those who believed in me, my

:04:39. > :04:42.friends, my coaches, more than I like to prove people wrong. It does

:04:43. > :04:46.feel good when you prove them wrong too.

:04:47. > :04:54.So you are three in three. You are an old Houston boy. You know the

:04:55. > :04:58.Super Bowl is in Houston, do you look around this team and think,

:04:59. > :05:03.yes, we've got the potential to do it? Yes I think so. Houston, a long

:05:04. > :05:07.way off, but it is exciting to think about going back home and to play

:05:08. > :05:11.there would be a dream come true. Given that, does that make this

:05:12. > :05:15.weekend make or break? You know, each week is important. Looking back

:05:16. > :05:19.after the season, you never know what game is the one that mattered,

:05:20. > :05:24.if you could take one play from one game and change that and it changes

:05:25. > :05:27.the season. So that why we approach each practise with everything we've

:05:28. > :05:34.got. We approach each game with everything we've got. And the guys

:05:35. > :05:41.receiving it, like Gurley, how important have they been? It is a

:05:42. > :05:46.great job. My receivers as well. All of the guys, they have done a

:05:47. > :05:48.really good job and have come on lately too, playing really well.

:05:49. > :05:51.They are hungry. They want the football. They want guys who want

:05:52. > :06:02.the football. They are excited. He's not the most high profile

:06:03. > :06:06.player in the NFL, but last week against the Lions he showed what he

:06:07. > :06:13.was capable of for a lot of the game. That was against the Lions.

:06:14. > :06:16.People forget he started the end of last season, they went four in one

:06:17. > :06:22.for the four games. People concentrate on what he can't do,

:06:23. > :06:27.which is he doesn't have a real strong... He's not the strongest

:06:28. > :06:31.guy. He wants a run-orientated team. He wants to turn the ball over. He's

:06:32. > :06:36.accurate enough when he throws. That is what they want most from him, his

:06:37. > :06:39.accuracy. As we heard in the interview they have spent big on

:06:40. > :06:42.Jared Goff. They reached up for him in the draft. He was expected by

:06:43. > :06:46.many people to start this season at least by now. So the plan has not

:06:47. > :06:50.gone as they hoped, has it? It hasn't gone as they hoped. It is

:06:51. > :06:54.because in college he didn't run in offense. He has to get caught up to

:06:55. > :06:59.speed and get it under his belt, which is very difficult in the NFL.

:07:00. > :07:03.You mentioned Todd Gurley, a very talented player in this heavy

:07:04. > :07:07.offense which is what Jeff Fisher wants to run, of course. But it has

:07:08. > :07:12.not been going to plan so far, has it? Not at all. That is a big

:07:13. > :07:15.problem for the las ang gles Rams. Based on defense, running the

:07:16. > :07:19.football. They have not been able to run the ball well. If they continue

:07:20. > :07:24.not to run the ball well they will be very unsuccessful in the future.

:07:25. > :07:27.He has to get help from his friends, the offensive line has not given him

:07:28. > :07:31.time. They are worried about pass protection. He has the talent to be

:07:32. > :07:36.the next Peter son in this league. If you think back to when Jeff

:07:37. > :07:42.Fisher used to coach winning teams back in Tennessee they were built

:07:43. > :07:46.around George running the ball, five, six times a game. They want

:07:47. > :07:51.Gurley to be the whoun loves it. He was coming into the NFL off a bad

:07:52. > :07:57.injury. You cannot make him a workhorse off that. The Giants'

:07:58. > :08:03.offensive line, protecting Eli Manning and co against the Rams

:08:04. > :08:07.defensive line. That is led by Donald. The most. This is a

:08:08. > :08:11.defensive tackle. Quick, fast can do everything. He plays the run and

:08:12. > :08:18.rushes the pass. As a matter of fact he rushes the pass and plays the run

:08:19. > :08:25.on his way toback. Cannot forget about Quinn also.

:08:26. > :08:29.We saw about five different moves there on one rush from Donald. He is

:08:30. > :08:34.tremendous. Now, you can hear Craig David

:08:35. > :08:37.performing behind us. He sold over 30 million albums worldwide, of

:08:38. > :08:39.course and in the middle of a successful comeback. A new album and

:08:40. > :08:53.a new tour to look forward to. # Ain't giving up on you...

:08:54. > :08:57.Speaking of comebacks, we were getting into that. Speaking of

:08:58. > :09:00.comebacks, there are few in the NFL more experienced than dragging his

:09:01. > :09:05.team from the brinks than Eli Manning. Seeing as OJ are not one

:09:06. > :09:11.but two Super Bowls with the Giants who better to get the lowdown on one

:09:12. > :09:18.of the best in the business. Listen all you New Yorkers... Let's show

:09:19. > :09:29.them what we all do. Eli Manning...

:09:30. > :09:38.Eli... My man, Eli! Look at him! Eli Manning... The champion.

:09:39. > :09:43.You've got to make it happen... My man, my main guy. Played ten years

:09:44. > :09:49.with you. How you? Doing great. How are you? Enjoying myself. We played

:09:50. > :09:53.here in the first international series back in '07. You scored a

:09:54. > :10:00.rush down touch in that game and showed off your speed.

:10:01. > :10:03.Eli Manning and he will waltz into the end zone.

:10:04. > :10:08.Some people have it. I am very blessed.

:10:09. > :10:12.What are your memories of that game and the way London was and how we

:10:13. > :10:17.were received back then? Obviously the first time, the crowd was kind

:10:18. > :10:22.of cheering at odd times. You would have a ten-yard pass and they were

:10:23. > :10:29.cheering like... Hey, you played ten yards, that is pretty fast. You had

:10:30. > :10:34.a 3nd 1, it is like that is boring. Where's the action. They

:10:35. > :10:39.like the fights, the punts and, you know, so ten years later, going to

:10:40. > :10:45.enter and see how the crowd reacts. Looking forward to it.

:10:46. > :10:49.Hurry-up... You guys haven't made the playoffs in four years and I

:10:50. > :10:54.know that weighs heavy on your heart. How will you rectify that

:10:55. > :10:58.this year? We have ways to win the close games. Last year we lost a

:10:59. > :11:02.tonne of close ones. We had a chance to win and couldn't go down and

:11:03. > :11:05.score. We did a good job winning a few of them, but not enough. It is

:11:06. > :11:11.that mind set, it is that belief, it is that trust, when it gets to the

:11:12. > :11:18.fourth quarter we will make the play. Defense and stop when you need

:11:19. > :11:22.it. It's about everybody believing. What about the turnover on thes are

:11:23. > :11:26.ter, last time we won the championship was back in 2012. There

:11:27. > :11:32.are only four players remaining on that particular team. Do you feel

:11:33. > :11:37.like a dinosaur? Yes, you know, that's the NFL. You learn that

:11:38. > :11:42.quickly. The NFL, you are there three years it is a lifetime. We

:11:43. > :11:48.have guys going into that second, third year. Those are the best teams

:11:49. > :11:54.when you have the great family. Going to the end zone...

:11:55. > :11:59.Touchdown... I don't know how superstitious you are. Last time the

:12:00. > :12:07.Giants were here, you know how it ended last season. Super Bowl.

:12:08. > :12:13.That's right. . Want to do our job, get a win here and make it possible.

:12:14. > :12:20.Eli seems unassuming, very mild mannered. For a quarterback that is

:12:21. > :12:24.an attribute because he's calm under pressure. Others think they need to

:12:25. > :12:28.be big and brash. Sometimes he gets criticism for that. He is big and

:12:29. > :12:33.brash on the inside. He doesn't let it come out. He is a competitor who

:12:34. > :12:39.believes in himself. He gets the job done for the New York Giants week

:12:40. > :12:46.in, week out. He puts it out there for his team. In a sense z what the

:12:47. > :12:51.Giants' game has been about for years, get big plays out of Eli. The

:12:52. > :12:54.last couple of years they have tried to play a more controlled game.

:12:55. > :12:57.Shorter passes, don't turn the ball over as much. As you watch them,

:12:58. > :13:03.they are still a big playing team. They depend on the big passes from

:13:04. > :13:11.Eli, especially and to Cruz and whoever else is at the other

:13:12. > :13:16.receiver spots. Odell Beckham - one of the superstars in the NFL right

:13:17. > :13:20.now. He's coming to London on the up after a difficult season so far.

:13:21. > :13:24.Yeah. He's a superstar. He's the heart beat of that team. He's so

:13:25. > :13:28.explosive. He gets the crowd behind him and those guys feed off of him.

:13:29. > :13:35.When he's playing well the defense picks it up. He is that team right

:13:36. > :13:40.now. We are seeing some of him right now. Is there too much pressure on

:13:41. > :13:45.him? He's taken around the world as an NFL ambassador? I wouldn't say

:13:46. > :13:49.there's too much pressure on him. He brings this on himself with all the

:13:50. > :13:53.things he does off the field. He has the blond hair. Great

:13:54. > :13:57.responsibility, this is what will happen to players like this. At the

:13:58. > :14:02.end of the day he's a great performance. This is last week

:14:03. > :14:08.against the Ravens and Beckham, that was their offense. You play

:14:09. > :14:13.quarterback, how would you feel about covering Odell Beckham?

:14:14. > :14:18.Dangerous. You cannot give him any room. He's dangerous. Now we have

:14:19. > :14:22.seen a lot of the Giants and you notice as well in the warm-up he was

:14:23. > :14:26.coming into this game with injury concerns, and he didn't look right,

:14:27. > :14:31.did he? He is walking around with a trainer and that is a red flag. You

:14:32. > :14:35.are trying to get ready for your game, when the trainer is next to

:14:36. > :14:40.you, that means you have an issue, a concern. We will watch this space

:14:41. > :14:46.closely. On the defensive side of the board, the Giants re-upped in

:14:47. > :14:51.the off season,s they are the worse defense in the NFL last time. They

:14:52. > :14:57.spent big on Jenkins, five years, $62 million. Is he worth the money?

:14:58. > :15:01.They got Jenkins from the Rams. He will know the receivers. He was the

:15:02. > :15:07.second best quarterback on the Rams. That is crucial. He's a gambling

:15:08. > :15:11.kind of guy. He likes to go and play people, take chances. That is the

:15:12. > :15:17.same is true of all the other quarterbacks. It is a bad

:15:18. > :15:20.combination. It is. I like gambling corners because they make plays.

:15:21. > :15:26.They need corners and that is why they've got him. He's been the best

:15:27. > :15:29.chance so far. Not only who is a good player. It is that guy right

:15:30. > :15:34.there. He's been playing phenomenal football. It could be a close game

:15:35. > :15:36.and may end up being crucial that the Giants have a brand new kicker

:15:37. > :15:49.going into this game. Josh Brown is suspended while the

:15:50. > :15:52.NFL is investigating domestic abuse, so they have signed Robbie Gold, who

:15:53. > :15:59.used to be with the Bears. Until they decide punishment will not be

:16:00. > :16:02.playing. As we heard Eli Manning already has two Super Bowl rings and

:16:03. > :16:06.he has plenty of gas left in the tank, one of the top ten

:16:07. > :16:11.quarterbacks of all time in passing yardage. He could move up the list

:16:12. > :16:13.into ninth today with our heart decent day. Let's have a look at the

:16:14. > :17:37.illustrious company he finds himself in.

:17:38. > :17:44.In a passer dominated NFL, more so than ever before for, even so it

:17:45. > :17:48.makes his achievement getting on that list pretty special. There is

:17:49. > :17:54.something about being that good for that long. That is worth credit

:17:55. > :17:59.itself. Even if you are not arguably the best in any given era. That is

:18:00. > :18:08.the story for him, being that good for 38 -- for that long. You have to

:18:09. > :18:12.be healthy and stay on the field. ESPN on Twitter earlier, saying the

:18:13. > :18:19.best selling NFL jerseys in the UK this year, Odell Beckham first, then

:18:20. > :18:24.Tom Brady and Aaron Rodgers. Odell Beckham Jr number one. And he has

:18:25. > :18:30.that same last name. I know how much you love what about. They are about

:18:31. > :18:35.to take the field here at Twickenham, and the NFL already is

:18:36. > :18:53.does that with plenty of style so let's meet the New York Giants first

:18:54. > :19:04.up. The crowd is electric. One, two, three, New York Giants. Let's go out

:19:05. > :19:05.there like a bunch of crazed dogs. Don't let anybody tell you you

:19:06. > :19:32.couldn't do it. Believe, believe, the leave. All

:19:33. > :19:40.out, all baby. The Giants have finished off the Patriots. Touchdown

:19:41. > :19:55.Giants. Please welcome, the 2016 New York

:19:56. > :20:16.Giants. STUDIO: That must be giving you

:20:17. > :20:21.goose bumps. Seeing the new players, the tradition, the Giants have a

:20:22. > :20:26.rich traditions of this is awesome. Officially the Rams of home team,

:20:27. > :20:36.and they have come away from LA to entertain us. Our mission. We don't

:20:37. > :21:04.like them, they'd like us. Over the top. That is the first

:21:05. > :21:09.touchdown for Pele. The pocket collapses. -- LAA. Google tree is

:21:10. > :21:21.in. Into the Sheldon, up in the air for the go-ahead

:21:22. > :22:11.touchdown. The Rams travelling on NFL- 37,000

:22:12. > :22:17.miles, this season, that is a lot. That wears you out, that is hard as

:22:18. > :22:21.a player. The Rams arrived on Monday, the Giants on Friday.

:22:22. > :22:25.Different from Wembley when both teams decided to come May. Teams

:22:26. > :22:32.vary on how they approach this. What do you prefer? I would not want to

:22:33. > :22:37.come too early, but not on Friday either. You need enough time to

:22:38. > :22:42.adjust. And you want to experience London, have some fun. I think

:22:43. > :22:46.Wednesday would be perfect. I've already experienced London so I

:22:47. > :22:49.would prefer the short week. I was convinced the short on works better

:22:50. > :22:54.and results seem to show that but now they kick off earlier, not 6pm,

:22:55. > :22:59.so I'm not sure that the team that travels short is yet adjusted to the

:23:00. > :23:05.time. Particularly a West Coast team. They have been here all week.

:23:06. > :23:09.For the it works well. Tavon Austin we did not mention earlier so let's

:23:10. > :23:15.take a look. Another with the big contract this summer, 26 catches,

:23:16. > :23:20.242 yards, pretty versatile. And he is a big play Guy, the Rams depend

:23:21. > :23:31.on that. They try to keep you tight. Returning up punt. Nearly as much

:23:32. > :23:36.yardage from scrimmage as a receiver last year. Three or four times a

:23:37. > :23:42.game on set plays simply because they want the ball in his hand. How

:23:43. > :23:48.do they get the best out of him, do they know? Get him the ball quick,

:23:49. > :23:53.here is that kind of play, get him in space. LA with the team for the

:23:54. > :23:59.first time in 20 years, they needed a team in LA. No question: huge

:24:00. > :24:05.market. New York and LA playing in London, free of the biggest cities

:24:06. > :24:10.in the world, Los Angeles here, they need that. There were not high hopes

:24:11. > :24:14.that they have shown promise and they need to keep it going. Big

:24:15. > :24:24.surprise in a very tough division, the Seattle playing this weekend. In

:24:25. > :24:30.the early 50s the LA Rams were the most exciting team NFL, then they

:24:31. > :24:33.were the biggest defensive team of the 50s with Olsen, Jones, the

:24:34. > :24:41.fearsome foursome. Then they became offensive again with Lewis. Did they

:24:42. > :24:47.sell any tickets then? We couldn't afford any. You can keep in touch

:24:48. > :24:50.with us on social media. Get your questions in and your reaction to

:24:51. > :24:58.the game as it unfolds. Laura will be singing God Save The Queen in a

:24:59. > :25:01.few moments. The first up the star sat

:25:02. > :25:12.the Star-Spangled Banner with Nicole Scherzinger. Ladies and judgment,

:25:13. > :25:13.please stand and remove your hats, please welcome international

:25:14. > :27:06.recording artist Nicole Scherzinger. CHEERING

:27:07. > :27:14.Now, to sing the national anthem of Great Britain, please welcome

:27:15. > :27:25.world-renowned mezzo-soprano Laura Wright.

:27:26. > :28:10.STUDIO: Terrific stuff, all afternoon we will be bringing the

:28:11. > :28:16.analysis in the studio during breaks in the connection will be called by

:28:17. > :28:27.the US, treating including former NFL quarterback Dan Fouts. Who

:28:28. > :28:30.better, your aggression quarterback knew no bounds. You would love to be

:28:31. > :28:35.routed question no, I am much too old. It is great to be hit,

:28:36. > :28:40.absolutely. It will be an exciting game. I wish I could tell you who

:28:41. > :28:45.will win but I don't know because they are evenly matched., OK, off

:28:46. > :28:50.you go! Let's talk about the quarterbacks, your position. For

:28:51. > :28:54.both sides who has the stronger? Eli Manning has been there and he has

:28:55. > :28:59.got two Super Bowl is, Case Keenum is an up-and-coming quarterback. Eli

:29:00. > :29:02.has Odell Beckham and he is one of the most exciting if not the

:29:03. > :29:08.exciting player in the game right now. That combination should give

:29:09. > :29:17.the Giants the edge. Are we going to see Beckham turn up? I hope so. What

:29:18. > :29:22.he does is so unusual. So dangerous after he catches the ball and tried

:29:23. > :29:28.to run for the touchdown. That is what I am anxious to watch and that

:29:29. > :29:33.is what I have been eager to see him fight. You had better put two men on

:29:34. > :29:37.him and at times that is not good enough. That is the best way to stop

:29:38. > :29:41.him. We will let you go, I know you favoured my half and half staff,

:29:42. > :29:48.perhaps you can take it. The fans can only see the Rams' side. I'm

:29:49. > :29:53.turning on you. Thank you. Almost ready for kick off at Twickenham,

:29:54. > :30:02.couple of quick messages on Twitter, Luke has got in touch. Can't wait to

:30:03. > :30:05.watch OBJ, not long now. He was an injury doubt going into this one.

:30:06. > :30:11.Not much about the Giants' defense in terms of pressure on the QB, you

:30:12. > :30:16.made your name for that in those great Giants teams.

:30:17. > :30:22.They have been getting good pressure. You pay that amount to

:30:23. > :30:26.those players to get to the quarterback and they don't bring

:30:27. > :30:30.them down, it is a problem. I have a sneaky suspicion that today is the

:30:31. > :30:34.day they will get it done. Do you buy into that? Will it be the break

:30:35. > :30:45.through? It has to come sooner than later. I go back to this idea where

:30:46. > :30:51.Olivier was the second option and he was yood to somebody else getting

:30:52. > :30:55.all the attention. Best when you are singled out like

:30:56. > :31:02.that when you are second best rusher. I was always the best.

:31:03. > :31:07.Mike said that the Rams are one of the surprise packages this season so

:31:08. > :31:13.far. What is their ceiling? How far can this team go? I think they can

:31:14. > :31:16.do well. They have to get to grip with the penalties. They are great

:31:17. > :31:21.on defense. They cannot hurt themselves for penalties. Sit back

:31:22. > :31:27.and relax. Enjoy New York verses LA in London. You heard a moment ago

:31:28. > :31:37.from Dan Fouts. He will comment tat alongside Kevin.

:31:38. > :31:43.THE COMMENTATOR: Harris is back for the Giants.

:31:44. > :31:48.He said that the Giants feel good about their chances to return. Jeff

:31:49. > :31:52.Fisher says, we are going to bang it out of the back of the end zone.

:31:53. > :31:57.Longest kick back from Harris was against the Vikings. That was 44

:31:58. > :31:59.yards. He will put himself down to a knee with a touchback for the

:32:00. > :32:05.25-yard line. And this will be a 1st 25-yard line. And this will be a 1st

:32:06. > :32:08.10. We talked to Eli Manning yesterday and Eli, at 35 years of

:32:09. > :32:15.age, as we talked about before, coming off a career season a year

:32:16. > :32:20.ago. A big game last week. Four header and three yards against the

:32:21. > :32:28.Ravens, including the game winner. The slap route.

:32:29. > :32:37.Took 66 yards. 1st 106789 And Rashad Jennings brought

:32:38. > :32:43.down behind the line of scrimmage by Maurice Alexander. He's been playing

:32:44. > :32:45.well in that position for LA. He's on the line of scrimmage. The Giants

:32:46. > :33:17.go to the line of scrimmage. 2nd down 8.

:33:18. > :33:22.Picked up on the play this is vk coupled in by Gaines who gets the

:33:23. > :33:32.turnover. That is a problem for the Giants, who are -11. His sixth

:33:33. > :33:45.fumble over his career. He's lost all five. You can see the double

:33:46. > :33:49.team tackle there as Joyner is on the ball.

:33:50. > :33:56.All turnovers are reviewed. All scoring plays are reviewed. That is

:33:57. > :34:04.the hold up right now. Crossing the middle.

:34:05. > :34:17.Review... They will see if that knee was down when he was hit.

:34:18. > :34:23.Seconds into the game here in London...

:34:24. > :34:29.The noise meant we couldn't hear ourselves. That shows what the

:34:30. > :34:37.atmosphere will be like and the pressure that will be on these

:34:38. > :34:42.players? Both teams are 3 367893 46789 I will ask myself do I have

:34:43. > :34:46.one more snap? Does he? You know what, he looks like it. We're both

:34:47. > :34:52.very honoured to be here as ambassadors of the NFL. I was part

:34:53. > :34:59.of the '07 New York Giants team that played here. It is like night and

:35:00. > :35:01.day being here to play all week. Seeing the fans, seeing how much

:35:02. > :35:07.more knowledge they have of the game. This will be a home-based team

:35:08. > :35:10.for an NFL team. I love how he brought up 2007. We know what

:35:11. > :35:16.happened for the Giants after that. Did they get on a roll after that?

:35:17. > :35:19.They might have won something small. This trip to London was a huge

:35:20. > :35:23.advantage for us as a football team. It was at a time we were struggling

:35:24. > :35:27.as a football team. It was almost like going back to training camp. We

:35:28. > :35:31.were here by ourselves with our football team and that win over the

:35:32. > :35:40.Dolphins propelled us for the rest of the season. Typical Giant. I

:35:41. > :35:45.played at the old Wembley Stadium, 2007. What I really remember is the

:35:46. > :35:50.fans being into it. They were excited. They were in tears. They

:35:51. > :35:55.were felling all that Paddy Ashdown shuvenlt they were feeding off it. I

:35:56. > :36:06.remember a great fanbase here. Once a pro-always a pro-. -- once a pro

:36:07. > :36:10.always a pro. I know you want to get back to the action.

:36:11. > :36:15.THE COMMENTATOR: Clearly a fumble. We will hear exactly that. There was

:36:16. > :36:20.a fumble on the play. It was recovered by las ening gles. The

:36:21. > :36:27.recovering player was touchdown at the 35-yard line. 1st 10 on the

:36:28. > :36:36.35. 14 minutes, 25 seconds, please. 14. 25 on the game card. Clearly a

:36:37. > :36:45.fumble. Lamarcus Joyner put his shoulder on the ball. Gaines is made

:36:46. > :36:49.contact with. The 16th consecutive game the Giants

:36:50. > :36:53.have turned the ball over. That is the longest current streak in the

:36:54. > :36:57.league. They are dead last in the give away take away this year. Now

:36:58. > :37:09.-11. 1st 106789 down to the 33-yard

:37:10. > :37:14.line. Hit by a couple on the play, including Vemon.

:37:15. > :37:20.We talked about that hot streak where he completed 19 in a row. He

:37:21. > :37:23.must get into that same zone today and establish that attack mode. It

:37:24. > :37:33.will sustain him through the game. Over 1,000 yards a season ago in his

:37:34. > :37:38.rookie year. 2nd 8.

:37:39. > :37:55.A nice catch and a tackle made by Robinson. It is the tight end, Lance

:37:56. > :37:58.Kendricks, to the Giants 26. Five reception games for the coach,

:37:59. > :38:02.Jeff Fisher. Here they go with a couple of tight

:38:03. > :38:16.ends. 3rd 1. Austin in motion.

:38:17. > :38:25.The first down of the 19 of New York. The tackle made Biharry son.

:38:26. > :38:35.Havenstein on that right side. A good push right here.

:38:36. > :38:39.Lowers his shoulders. Within range for the Rams.

:38:40. > :38:50.I thought he was getting more of his rhythm last week.

:38:51. > :39:00.And Austin fumbles the ball. He goes to the farside and out of bounds and

:39:01. > :39:06.it still stays with the Rams, as Gurley got the wildcat snap.

:39:07. > :39:10.Gurley with the snap. A good job with the exchange to Austin. Good

:39:11. > :39:17.block on the outside by Kendricks there. Looked like Austin was down

:39:18. > :39:22.before that ball came lose. Now the 14-yard line. It is a 1st

:39:23. > :39:26.down. Austin is all over the place, isn't

:39:27. > :39:30.he? They can put him in a lot of different positions. He's so quick

:39:31. > :39:39.and dangerous with the ball in his hands.

:39:40. > :39:44.The 1st 10. Running back down to about the 11-yard line and hit out

:39:45. > :39:51.of play by a fourth year player out of Ohio state for the Giants. A

:39:52. > :39:56.couple of wide, tall receiver, two of them at 6 foot three. They have

:39:57. > :40:06.an advantage. Shepard came back in the defense for

:40:07. > :40:21.New York and they've got four in their 2nd here.

:40:22. > :40:29.It was almost pipped off. Almost grabbed on the play by Jason

:40:30. > :40:36.Pierre-Paul. He rarely leaves the field. A 3-down player. 3rd 6 for

:40:37. > :40:41.the Rams. Still looking to get a pass rush out of their front four.

:40:42. > :40:49.This is a real good blitz that time. The ball, knocked it in the air.

:40:50. > :40:56.He almost had a free one. The Rams have this great field position. 3rd

:40:57. > :41:07.7. That is caught for a touchdown.

:41:08. > :41:15.Team on Austin. He beats Andrew Adams.

:41:16. > :41:21.And the Rams cash in on the turnover by the Giants on a 10-yard

:41:22. > :41:24.touchdown. That is a slant route by Austin in the slide, getting behind

:41:25. > :41:29.the line backers, inside of the safety. Ball thrown behind him. A

:41:30. > :41:33.great adjustment to the ball before Andrew Adams can get there to knock

:41:34. > :41:39.it away. A great start for the Rams. A disastrous start for the Giants.

:41:40. > :41:42.Austin has signed a contract extension this past training camp.

:41:43. > :41:48.Comes down with his second touchdown this season. The Rams offense, 31

:41:49. > :41:52.and they have had a hard time going. Coming off some nice momentum from

:41:53. > :41:59.last week when they were storing well, running it and throwing the

:42:00. > :42:07.ball better, the 19th consecutive conclusions at one time.

:42:08. > :42:26.11-15 to play in the first. Gaines picks out up. Reception with Austin

:42:27. > :42:30.in the end zone. The New York Giants like to huddle off to put the

:42:31. > :42:34.defense in the back foot. They is great in theory A terrible start for

:42:35. > :42:39.them. Turnover, turnovers. You cannot turn the football over. This

:42:40. > :42:44.is what used to drive the coach insane. And they have been doing it

:42:45. > :42:49.for the past 16 games. You cannot have it. And you can see why they

:42:50. > :42:54.reviewed it because right there, he's down. There is a little bit of

:42:55. > :43:01.a touch to make sure he's down. When you get this, your man JPP had his

:43:02. > :43:06.shot at six. He should have caught it. Didn't know the ball would come

:43:07. > :43:09.like that. The line backers, on the quarterback, should have been a

:43:10. > :43:14.turnover from the New York Giants. A well executed play for the

:43:15. > :43:20.touchdown. You attack the touchdown safety. Number three, slide and

:43:21. > :43:25.defend this route. Look underneath. See the tight end coming under. The

:43:26. > :43:31.linebacker had, he has to step up and for that little window Austin is

:43:32. > :43:38.wide open. Eli, sorry Keenum gets the

:43:39. > :43:45.Raze It was said, this offense is improving. I think that is true. It

:43:46. > :43:50.is true he'll take it if it is the in the middle pack. He thinks his

:43:51. > :43:57.defense can keep them in games and the defense is special, the team can

:43:58. > :44:02.produce points for him. The Broncos laid out the blueprint for that.

:44:03. > :44:07.When you have somebody like Gurley you can control the game. You want

:44:08. > :44:13.to play great defense. I don't care what he says, there's no way he

:44:14. > :44:20.wants his offense... No way! It is the principal it is going up. He

:44:21. > :44:24.played for the Chicago Bears. You think back to the 86 Bears. That was

:44:25. > :44:33.their formula too. Coaches come up with a formula. They stick to what

:44:34. > :44:35.they know. A great start for the LA Rams. See how the Giants can

:44:36. > :44:45.counter. To Harris and in the end zone after

:44:46. > :45:29.the 25-yard line and a touchback for the Giants. 1st down 10.

:45:30. > :45:39.Caught by the Rookie, Sterling Shepard. Out of Oklahoma. Brought

:45:40. > :45:44.down by TJ McDonald of the Rams secondary. Really unusual for a

:45:45. > :45:49.rookie to be so effective out of the slot. He played in that position at

:45:50. > :45:55.University of Oklahoma a lot. The Giants like Hezbollah to define the

:45:56. > :45:57.space over the middle. -- the Giants like his ability to find the space

:45:58. > :46:12.over the middle. Rashad Jennings up the middle, into

:46:13. > :46:19.the grasp of Ethan Westbrooks. The Giants like to use the running back

:46:20. > :46:23.by committee. They have 129 carries on the year. Todd Gurley by himself

:46:24. > :46:47.has 123. Dropped, Victor Cruz. He dropped one

:46:48. > :46:54.last week as well. Had the chance to get close to a 1st down. Cruise saw

:46:55. > :47:01.EJ Gaines playing about ten yards off and he knew he had the 1st down

:47:02. > :47:07.with the catch. Watch his eyes go to the down marker. -- Cruz. Just flat

:47:08. > :47:23.dropped it. Up the middle, picked up by Weston

:47:24. > :47:28.Richburg. Short, looking for Shepard and Will Tye was there as well. Troy

:47:29. > :47:35.Hill with the coverage for the Rams. Here comes the punt. Good bits that

:47:36. > :47:48.time right up the middle, forcing Manning to throw off his back foot.

:47:49. > :47:56.That ball came out short. Tavon Austin is deep for the Rams. Low

:47:57. > :48:06.snap. Austin lets it bounds into the end zone. Touchback. 20-yard line. A

:48:07. > :48:15.player knocked down across the way, and players converging on him, now

:48:16. > :48:20.they are separated. 61 yard punt. Nicole, we just saw you perform your

:48:21. > :48:24.national anthem, what was that like? My gosh, I honestly could not be

:48:25. > :48:32.more proud. This is my adopted home and to be here it is like, it is

:48:33. > :48:36.crazy. I feel like I have been transported back to America, it

:48:37. > :48:46.makes me miss my families so much. As soon as I walked in I got pork

:48:47. > :48:48.and gravy, I love it. It is the spirit, the energy, festivity and

:48:49. > :48:54.sportsmanship, passion, that is what I grew up with. It is just an honour

:48:55. > :49:00.to perform my national anthem here. I thought you might sing ours as

:49:01. > :49:05.well. Laura did a beautiful job. Say you are done, has that giving you

:49:06. > :49:11.the passion to do it at the Super Bowl? Oh my gosh, I would love that,

:49:12. > :49:19.singing at the Super Bowl, I've said it! I am starting the pussycat dolls

:49:20. > :49:22.reunion. That would be really fun. Are you going for one of these

:49:23. > :49:30.things? You are from Louisville, the Cardinals. My family actually, I am

:49:31. > :49:36.not the biggest expert on NFL, but I grew up with my family loving

:49:37. > :49:38.football. My family's favourite teams are Dallas Cowboys and

:49:39. > :49:45.Minnesota Vikings. We are hoping that Teddy Bridgewater gets well, he

:49:46. > :49:49.is actually from Louisville. So I said it sort of right, I am going

:49:50. > :49:53.for that. You said you are an expert, we will get you up on

:49:54. > :50:01.commentary. I said I am not! Thank you very much. Commentary'

:50:02. > :50:03.Twickenham may be a rugby stadium, pitch as they call it, you can see a

:50:04. > :50:17.lot of Giants jerseys. There are jerseys representing every

:50:18. > :50:27.team here, 75,000 fans here. I have one of those hats if you want one.

:50:28. > :50:36.After the punt. Case Keenum going deep, he has got his receiver, flag

:50:37. > :50:43.throw, and he was working on the side. Working against Janoris

:50:44. > :50:49.Jenkins, Brian Greg. Jenkins a high priced free agent signed by the

:50:50. > :50:56.Giants. This will be against Jenkins. Before the pass was thrown,

:50:57. > :51:10.illegal content, defense number 20. 48 yards. Brian Greg has two slow

:51:11. > :51:14.down for this ball. Cumming overlaid, Adams, you can see the

:51:15. > :51:27.illegal contact and the Rams go after their former team-mate.

:51:28. > :51:37.Gurley. Finally wrestled down by Devon Kennard. Pick up of five.

:51:38. > :51:58.Positive gain on 1st down for Gurley and the Rams.

:51:59. > :52:05.Case Keenum played at the University of Houston, then the Texans before

:52:06. > :52:11.being traded to the Rams. Cunningham with only his seventh carry of the

:52:12. > :52:17.season. Hit by Harrison. They might think about getting Cunningham some

:52:18. > :52:25.more action, his average coming in today just under seven yards per

:52:26. > :52:42.carry. Good change-up. Sticking right now. Five in the secondary for

:52:43. > :52:51.the Giants. Keenum, Austin sneaking inside. Sliding down to the 17-yard

:52:52. > :52:57.line. Eli Apple active today. LA Rams 1st down. Austin have the 1st

:52:58. > :53:01.down with the catch and the kind of gave it away but with his quickness

:53:02. > :53:06.he usually got back up the field to pick up the 1st down. With the catch

:53:07. > :53:10.he has got it, he gets inside the linebacker, Casillas. Still quick

:53:11. > :53:23.enough to pick it up. Gurley, Cunningham. Taken down by

:53:24. > :53:30.Vernon, who was tremendous last week in the first-half. A lot of players

:53:31. > :53:34.slipping in the warm up and that is exactly what happens there to

:53:35. > :53:38.Cunningham. This is a very unusual field, it looks like it is all grass

:53:39. > :53:45.but there is an artificial surface woven into the grass. It is a big

:53:46. > :53:56.adjustment for the NFL players. Wembley has a similar situation.

:53:57. > :54:10.Keenum underneath. Gurley drilled on the play by Landon Collins. Played

:54:11. > :54:16.Collins was involved on the chicken is on the last punt by the Giants,

:54:17. > :54:21.when he drilled Chase Reynolds, the special teams running back. That is

:54:22. > :54:27.what happened when we went to commercial. Colin is a big hitter at

:54:28. > :54:33.six foot two, 225 lb, out of Alabama.

:54:34. > :54:39.They came in just converting 33% on 3rd down.

:54:40. > :54:53.Keenum. He is hit, knocked off balance, and finished off by Kerry

:54:54. > :54:58.Wynn. Only the seventh sack all season for the Giants, the last in

:54:59. > :55:04.that category in the NFL., Craig Keenan steps up into the pocket, his

:55:05. > :55:13.offensive lineman that time, they expected him to stay deep, 30 he ran

:55:14. > :55:24.into the sack by Kerry Wynn with help from JPP. Zuerlein 15 kickers

:55:25. > :55:34.yet to miss in the league. 36 yard field goal try. -- one of five yet

:55:35. > :55:40.to miss. That extends the lead. Some miscues by the Giants and the Rams

:55:41. > :55:43.are cashing in in London. We talked about the Rams' defense not getting

:55:44. > :55:48.to the quarterback enough, not converting that into a sack, Kerry

:55:49. > :55:52.Wynn must have heard you. It was Jason Pierre-Paul, do not give him

:55:53. > :55:58.the sack! Absolutely what happened as they slid the line, great

:55:59. > :56:06.coverage by the secondary, he comes all the way back under. Great play

:56:07. > :56:12.by Jason. You could almost say he felt the pressure too early. The

:56:13. > :56:16.pressure coming from his right side. So under control. If he had taken

:56:17. > :56:23.one small step forward. Lots of you getting in touch on social media,

:56:24. > :56:27.lots of you talking about the Thursday night football, that you

:56:28. > :56:33.might be seen on the screen, it is a curious quirk of the rights package,

:56:34. > :56:44.this is an NFL network MMF or it is Thursday night football. You do not

:56:45. > :56:50.have to adjust your clock. -- NFL network game, they're for.

:56:51. > :56:56.Katie Phillips predicting a big win. Do you think the nature of

:56:57. > :56:59.Twickenham as a rugby stadium will lead to a better atmosphere than

:57:00. > :57:03.Wembley? I think Hemisphere has been really good. Hemisphere at Wembley

:57:04. > :57:07.has been really good as well. It is a little bit more compact here, you

:57:08. > :57:12.get the feeling that the sound resonates. We can hear it. It feels

:57:13. > :57:19.noisier. It is the way the stadium was built, the sound amplifies it,

:57:20. > :57:24.it seems so much louder. It is buzzing, one thing the commentators

:57:25. > :57:30.have mentioned about the turf, players slipping in warm up. It

:57:31. > :57:35.looks difficult to adjust. It is but that is what the warm up is for, go

:57:36. > :57:39.out and test it out and see which cleats you want. That is on you as a

:57:40. > :57:49.player. You have to be ready. Keep the questions coming in.

:57:50. > :58:00.COMMENTATOR: I cut the crossed off, my boys like that. -- crust. Field

:58:01. > :58:04.goal after the long pass completion, then a fumble as well which set up

:58:05. > :58:37.the touchdown. They leave it in the end zone again.

:58:38. > :58:48.Lovely resort at Penny Hill I am staying out. Beautiful. Eli Manning

:58:49. > :58:53.over the top. Ogletree could not get in the first time. Coming through

:58:54. > :59:01.with the hit in the secondary, TJ McDonald. Really good effort,

:59:02. > :59:06.gaining nine yards on 1st down sets up a lot of options now for Manning.

:59:07. > :59:12.It is about time he tries to get number 13 involved in this offense.

:59:13. > :59:19.He missed a couple of days of practice. Lined up in the backfield

:59:20. > :59:24.now. Still very painful apparently. Number 34. Beckham drilled.

:59:25. > :59:33.Beautiful play coming in from the secondary, Hill taking the place of

:59:34. > :59:38.the injured Trumaine Johnson. Really poor blocking on the perimeter by

:59:39. > :59:42.the Giants wide receivers. You can see nobody blocks Hill, nobody gets

:59:43. > :59:52.Lamarcus Joyner to the ground either.

:59:53. > :00:03.They come with some theatrics after his capture is last week. --

:00:04. > :00:08.catches. Time for Manning and a knock-down by EJ Gaines, going for

:00:09. > :00:13.Cruz. EJ Gaines has started the last couple of games and comes up with a

:00:14. > :00:17.big play, the punt once again for the Giants. We were just talking

:00:18. > :00:21.rather Giants coming over late, the Rams look a lot fresher at the start

:00:22. > :00:22.of this game, the Giants seem to be sleepwalking through the first

:00:23. > :00:41.quarter. Out of bounds. It was decent enough.

:00:42. > :00:46.There was pretty good coverage down there and the Ram lazy take it for a

:00:47. > :00:52.third time. They've had it twice. Scored both times they've had it.

:00:53. > :01:00.Someone will be happy if there was a break at the moment. Alan Pardew.

:01:01. > :01:04.Trying to get up close and personal I was close to the snap actually. A

:01:05. > :01:11.fantastic experience being here today. You are looking at the

:01:12. > :01:15.infamous net. How would you handle a player like Beckham? The maverick

:01:16. > :01:20.players you need to handle carefully. There is a reason why

:01:21. > :01:24.they are maverick. They have those tendencies. You have to be care of

:01:25. > :01:30.the make sure they are motivated and happy, more importantly. I know you

:01:31. > :01:32.study the game as well as a coach of, who have you learnt there having

:01:33. > :01:42.that experience? Well, I mean a hero of mine.

:01:43. > :01:46.American sport I have been a fan of. Today is a great experience for me.

:01:47. > :01:51.This is an avenue, the Premier League to look at. Because the NFL,

:01:52. > :01:55.it is all about packaging and marketing A fantastic job today and

:01:56. > :02:00.the families and the people here all are having a fabulous time. They do

:02:01. > :02:05.a really good job. What about the coaching perrer speckive - the way

:02:06. > :02:09.it is broken down, would you like to see more of that? The game is so

:02:10. > :02:14.segmented that it is difficult to get any flow to the game. I was

:02:15. > :02:16.trying to watch on the sidelines there how you would interact with

:02:17. > :02:20.that. It is so different. It is almost like a foreign sport. This

:02:21. > :02:25.access as well is phenomenal. What will you look out for? Do you think

:02:26. > :02:30.you will get a chance to talk to the coach at the end? Possibly not.

:02:31. > :02:36.Trying to get on the pitch a minute ago I was thrown off. You go,

:02:37. > :02:43.nothing to do with me! We will let Alan go off back on to the field.

:02:44. > :02:50.THE COMMENTATOR: That is a long shot for a wildcard position. Neither of

:02:51. > :02:54.these teams will catch the leaders in their respective divisions with

:02:55. > :03:02.their loss today. 1st 10 for the las ang gles Rams.

:03:03. > :03:12.-- Los Angeles Rams. False start. Offense. Number 73.

:03:13. > :03:19.Five-yard penalty. 1st out. Robinson the tackle. He's facing a fresh

:03:20. > :03:22.Jason Pierre-Paul on that side. Robinson has had his struggles this

:03:23. > :03:26.season and last year. He's going up against a line that is

:03:27. > :03:29.re-enforced with some new signings as we take a look at Jason

:03:30. > :04:00.Pierre-Paul. It looked like he was hit on the by

:04:01. > :04:07.Zak DeOssie. You cannot help by keep your eyes on

:04:08. > :04:11.Odell Beckham jr, especially as you alluded to, he's not taken his seat,

:04:12. > :04:16.guys. He's taken oxygen. I just watched him in the huddle with the

:04:17. > :04:23.offensive linesmen, emmothering them. He's staying active. Only two

:04:24. > :04:24.nights for his team. Days of practise on Wednesday and

:04:25. > :04:41.Thursday. There was pressure on the play and

:04:42. > :04:48.the tackle on the play outside is by Collins.

:04:49. > :04:53.They take him out to the 27. And Higbee was after he caught the ball

:04:54. > :04:57.tried to lower his shoulder on big 21 and he went backwards. Collins

:04:58. > :05:02.with all the impetus to keep him to that short game.

:05:03. > :05:16.2nd catch of his season, coming in as a back. It is 4 down 8.

:05:17. > :05:25.And there was the flag. Caught up in the coverage of the

:05:26. > :05:30.secondary for the New York Giants. Looked like Eli Apple was over there

:05:31. > :05:37.in defense. Back after an injury. Number 24. Automatic 1st down. Part

:05:38. > :05:42.of a foul. Here he is playing today. He's been dealing hamstring and

:05:43. > :05:51.groin problems. You can see him just grab quick. That ball was well on

:05:52. > :05:59.its way. And both Quick and Keenum celebrate.

:06:00. > :06:06.A 1st 10 and another miscue for the Giants.

:06:07. > :06:16.And that's a big catch with a lot of traffic. Kendricks out at mid-field,

:06:17. > :06:22.close to the 1st, picks up 10. They will give him the 1st down. They

:06:23. > :06:26.want him to throw off his back foot. He gets enough on it and Kendricks

:06:27. > :06:30.makes a catch and absorbs the big hit from Collins. But another 1st

:06:31. > :06:34.down for the Rams as they continue to move the ball against this

:06:35. > :06:52.Giants' defense. 1st 10. A couple down to the

:06:53. > :06:58.47-yard line so. Some miscues for the gianted. We've seen the fumble.

:06:59. > :07:04.We have seen some pass, we saw a third down penalty. That That is the

:07:05. > :07:10.key, that automatic 1st down. They keep the drive going. It was poor

:07:11. > :07:13.technique there as he went for the inside, Quick. Broke to the outside.

:07:14. > :07:29.Went to grab him. Goodbye Keenum.

:07:30. > :07:35.Working on his pass. He's seen loaded up boxes a lot of the guys at

:07:36. > :07:41.the line crowding. He picks up a yard at the 44.

:07:42. > :07:46.Look at this stat about the sacks. Six are by their safety, Collins. So

:07:47. > :07:58.the front four just not getting to the quarterback. Vemon with one set.

:07:59. > :08:04.Jason Pierre-Paul with one sack and Hankins with one sack.

:08:05. > :08:15.Marquez in motion. Giving up pressure.

:08:16. > :08:19.They came on the side, that was Vemon who we talked to yesterday

:08:20. > :08:23.pressuring the quarterback. He's only got one sack, but he's number

:08:24. > :08:31.one in quarterback pressures. That is what this is here. Right side of

:08:32. > :08:38.the screen, forcing that income pleegs. 10-0 lead to the Los Angeles

:08:39. > :08:42.Rams. The end of a very messy quarter for

:08:43. > :08:50.the New York Giants. It started with that turnover and the Rams

:08:51. > :08:56.capitalised of course a 10-yarder. Seven place, 35-yard drive. They

:08:57. > :09:02.could only settle for a field goal. That drove eight plays, 62 yards. It

:09:03. > :09:07.means the Rams end the first quarter 10-0 up. So far, so good, Mike. What

:09:08. > :09:12.you are seeing is classic Rams defense. Special Teams getting the

:09:13. > :09:15.ball to Tavon Austin in position where he could do something with

:09:16. > :09:19.getting the turnovers. That is what's killing the Giants. I think

:09:20. > :09:23.the Giants right now, the play calling is very standard. It is all

:09:24. > :09:27.short, running short stuff and that's not really what will get them

:09:28. > :09:30.back into the game. They don't believe in the run game. Trying to

:09:31. > :09:34.throw the ball short to simulate runs and you know, it seems like

:09:35. > :09:43.they are sleepwalking. That I have no rhythm. That is why Ben got the

:09:44. > :09:49.job. He failed to capture that this year. Heavy is the head that wears

:09:50. > :09:52.the crown. When he was offensive co-ordinator they were good. Now

:09:53. > :09:56.head coach things are not progressing the way they would have

:09:57. > :10:00.wanted them to. They seem to be sleepwalking like Jason said. We

:10:01. > :10:04.talked at the beginning about this change when the kick-off was at six

:10:05. > :10:08.I liked the teams that came over on Friday morning because they would be

:10:09. > :10:11.playing at a good time. It would be noon time for their bodies. Right

:10:12. > :10:17.now for the Giants it is still early in the morning. They have not had

:10:18. > :10:21.their coffee yet. Talk from a players's point of view when you are

:10:22. > :10:26.kicking off an at irregular time? For me I like to get the game over

:10:27. > :10:30.early. Coming out here, like he said, it is like 6am right now, or

:10:31. > :10:34.maybe 8am in New York. They have not had their breakfast. They still have

:10:35. > :10:42.not had time to adjust properly I think to the game. I think the as ga

:10:43. > :10:45.game goes on you will see them get better and better.

:10:46. > :11:00.THE COMMENTATOR: 4th down and about three.

:11:01. > :11:07.Higbee in motion. Got them both sides here, Kevin.

:11:08. > :11:11.You know, they have been going it for 4th down. They've had a couple

:11:12. > :11:16.of situations which have backfired, but now they take the penalty. A

:11:17. > :11:25.good discipline by the Giants. The last couple of weeks to get

:11:26. > :11:29.against the Bills, that backfired. Then in week six, a goal from the

:11:30. > :11:34.one foot line in the first play of the first half instead of going for

:11:35. > :11:38.three and Jeff Fisher has been criticised for some those tactical

:11:39. > :11:42.moves. And trying to draw offside does not work any more, does it. I

:11:43. > :11:46.remember when I tried to do it, all I would come up with was a sore

:11:47. > :11:53.throat. Hector is as good a punter as there

:11:54. > :11:59.is in the NFL. 33 punts. Not a single downdown. That is outside the

:12:00. > :12:04.numbers and out of bounds, inside the 20-yard line. Hekker, he's got

:12:05. > :12:09.hang time, accuracy and he puts the Giants at their 17, who will have it

:12:10. > :12:15.for the fourth time. Giants have fumbled. Four plays, punt and here

:12:16. > :12:16.comes their fourth position with not a lot of time with possession in

:12:17. > :12:24.this game. Jennings two carries for four yards.

:12:25. > :12:40.Not much offense. Perkins in the backfield.

:12:41. > :12:53.Running out of ULCA. We talked about Beckham and just all the the at

:12:54. > :12:55.tricks, if distraction is the word you want to use, people look at it

:12:56. > :12:58.from different standpoints, struggling to control his emotions,

:12:59. > :13:00.that is one thing the coaching staff has talked to him about. It will

:13:01. > :13:02.take some time, but they have certain techniques. They are working

:13:03. > :13:07.with him on. That would have been a disaster.

:13:08. > :13:17.Taking his helmet off after that long touchdown.

:13:18. > :13:21.Perkins on the backfield. And he is stuck in the sideline about the

:13:22. > :13:27.21-yard line. It is a game of five on the play. Out to the 21. Here

:13:28. > :13:35.comes Beckham. Team speed of the Rams right now is

:13:36. > :13:39.dominating this game. That time it was Barron on the play as well as

:13:40. > :13:50.Westbrooks getting out from his defensive spot.

:13:51. > :14:01.I think they got Donald with the hard count. He was the top-rated

:14:02. > :14:07.footballer a season ago. He's got pressures in the NFL coming off the

:14:08. > :14:11.defensive line: defense, five-yard penalty.

:14:12. > :14:17.Penalty was on 99 of the defense. 99. Still 3rd down. Donald will pick

:14:18. > :14:24.that up. A little jump right there. It is not

:14:25. > :14:30.easy from the shotgun position for a quarterback to use the hard count to

:14:31. > :14:38.draw somebody offside. Good job that time by Eli Manning.

:14:39. > :14:44.Perkins stays in the game. 67-yard penalty.

:14:45. > :14:52.See Beckham down there at the bottom of your screen.

:14:53. > :15:00.Beyond the line of scrimmage, gets out to the 27-yard line.

:15:01. > :15:06.Ogletree was there with a gain of a yard. So that first mistake by the

:15:07. > :15:09.Rams today will cost them, as the Giants get a cheer here in England,

:15:10. > :15:33.picking up that 1st down. They get a Bronx cheer. Perkins.

:15:34. > :15:39.Nice block, into the secondary. Hill also in the secondary. Marshall

:15:40. > :15:50.Newhouse had his spot taken by Bobby hard. You can see just in view and

:15:51. > :15:59.the best rushing play for the Giants. -- Bobby Hart. Bobby Rainey,

:16:00. > :16:07.down the seam, Beckham, on the slander, hit by Hill. Into midfield

:16:08. > :16:29.for the Giants. Couple of real positive plays in a row.

:16:30. > :16:47.Bobby Rainey. Out of the backfield with some receptions, and

:16:48. > :17:08.39-year-old head coach Ben McAdoo. Eli Manning, outside, the receiver,

:17:09. > :17:19.Cruz, drilled by McDonald on the play. He makes the tough catch,

:17:20. > :17:24.having dropped on when he was wide open. TJ McDonald was laying it to

:17:25. > :17:29.him pretty good. We know the running game continues to be a struggle for

:17:30. > :17:44.the Giants. The quarterback's best friend is the running game.

:17:45. > :18:02.Into the nickelback, caught by Rainey, scooped up by Cruise. EJ

:18:03. > :18:06.Gaines making the stuff. Just enough time and just enough for the 1st

:18:07. > :18:18.down as Cruz makes the catch just over the gain line. Coverage on the

:18:19. > :18:30.play by EJ Gaines. That was a tight window, he had the outside coverage

:18:31. > :18:38.on Demel. Eli Manning apparently does not like much in his helmet

:18:39. > :18:48.radio. Here is like having a coach on the field anyway. He has seen it

:18:49. > :18:56.all. Cruz breaks the tackle. Knocked out of bounds by McDonald. Beautiful

:18:57. > :19:03.catch and run, Victor Cruz. His third catch on the drive, great move

:19:04. > :19:20.away from games. Touchdown saving tackle by McDonald. Eli is hot.

:19:21. > :19:31.Perkins remains. And here comes Perkins, into the fray. Not a whole

:19:32. > :19:35.lot. McAdoo calls the phrase for this team -- calls the place for

:19:36. > :19:48.this team but a lot of input from Eli and Mike Sullivan. The line now

:19:49. > :19:57.74 yards. In the red zone. -- Eli. Three touchdown passes last week.

:19:58. > :20:12.2nd 10, Manning, Beckham. About the 12-yard line, working his way

:20:13. > :20:21.into Troy Hill. Four quick out by Beckham, good timing with Eli,

:20:22. > :20:25.Stefan Arman Hill, protecting the ball with his outside arm. -- stiff

:20:26. > :20:45.arm on Phil. Manning going for the rookie,

:20:46. > :20:52.Sterling Shepard. Coverage in the secondary from Lamarcus Joyner.

:20:53. > :20:55.Kevin, a lot of people think this is face guarding but it is not, he does

:20:56. > :21:01.not make contact with the receiver. The Canon perfectly timed this as

:21:02. > :21:07.the ball gets there, so does Joyner, tremendous play by Lamarcus Joyner.

:21:08. > :21:14.The defense holds them out, this brings in Robbie Gold. His entire 11

:21:15. > :21:20.year career with the Chicago Bears. Let go after a lacklustre preseason.

:21:21. > :21:27.Field goal try of 29 yards to put the Giants on the board. He arrived

:21:28. > :21:34.in the last couple of days and he comes in and puts three on the board

:21:35. > :21:38.for the Giants. STUDIO: The Giants gets on the board with their kicker,

:21:39. > :21:41.only the very best players in the NFL make it into the Hall of Fame

:21:42. > :21:46.and I'm delighted to say we're joined by an absolute legend, Super

:21:47. > :21:52.Bowl winner as well, absolutely deserves that brand of those,

:21:53. > :21:59.Orlando, great to have you here. You place the majority of your career

:22:00. > :22:05.with the Rams. My first time in London, great expense, just seeing

:22:06. > :22:10.the sights. Doing something so to enhance the game. Great turnout. You

:22:11. > :22:16.have got some history, you played against each other, what was that

:22:17. > :22:23.like? Two crazy, the only guy who completely shut me up, with Walter

:22:24. > :22:30.Jones, so big and physical and agile, they were able to get back

:22:31. > :22:36.and float. , you were saying you could jump the count against the

:22:37. > :22:41.Rams. I knew the snap cap that he was still back there. Talk through

:22:42. > :22:46.what it felt like that you are being inducted into the Hall of Fame.

:22:47. > :22:49.Obviously to play in this game, the NFL, to have the opportunity to be

:22:50. > :22:57.the Hall of Famer, so many guys who have played the game. 303 guys who

:22:58. > :23:03.have a jacket and a ring and a bronze bust, to be one of those, it

:23:04. > :23:08.is the elite. If you are one of those guys, being in a room with

:23:09. > :23:14.those guys, it is like icing on the top of the kick. When did it sink

:23:15. > :23:20.in? I am still flying pretty high, just a few months ago for the

:23:21. > :23:25.induction, I am writing this roller-coaster and hopefully I never

:23:26. > :23:29.come down. Good stuff. Orlando will be sticking with us a little bit

:23:30. > :23:40.longer. He did get his thoughts on the Rams later. COMMENTATOR: It

:23:41. > :23:46.looks like the Rams and maybe two steps Wicca at this point in the

:23:47. > :23:56.game than the Giants. The kick-off by Robbie Gold. Into the end zone

:23:57. > :24:04.with Cunningham. Case Keenum, and drafted quarterback. STUDIO: Quicker

:24:05. > :24:09.than we thought. Orlando, changing times for the Rams, moving to Los

:24:10. > :24:15.Angeles, back to Los Angeles, but how does that feel as the former

:24:16. > :24:22.Sului player, how do the fans feel? The St Louis Rams have afraid every

:24:23. > :24:29.time the Rams lose. There are some die-hard fans there that still

:24:30. > :24:32.support the team, and the move to the LA area was great for the

:24:33. > :24:38.organisation and I'm sure those fans are excited to be back, for the most

:24:39. > :24:46.part. I know the league as excited as well. Hopefully we can come out

:24:47. > :24:49.with the victory today in London. We mentioned Walter Jones, Jonathan

:24:50. > :24:55.Ogden as well in that group with you guys. Did you feel internal

:24:56. > :25:00.competition between you three because you are such great tacklers?

:25:01. > :25:03.I think when you play naturally you look at the guys who are considered

:25:04. > :25:09.the best and Walter and Jonathan Ogden and those guys, we kind of

:25:10. > :25:14.came along at a special time in the NFL where we have those quick guys,

:25:15. > :25:17.the importance of the left tackle, you have to get athletic guys who

:25:18. > :25:26.can move their feet so we could keep up. But where do they go which Mark

:25:27. > :25:32.what happened? You never know, the game changes so much. The college

:25:33. > :25:38.game is not developing as well, the spread offense makes it difficult to

:25:39. > :25:44.find the athletic offensive tackles. He might have to remove some tight

:25:45. > :25:50.ends down. Quick line before you go, I know you have a lot of media

:25:51. > :25:57.today, these LA Rams have surprised a lot of people. How far can they

:25:58. > :26:02.go? They have a great defense, they have two of the best defensive

:26:03. > :26:07.lineman in the league, Aaron Donald and Robert Quinn. We appreciate your

:26:08. > :26:20.time. COMMENTATOR: Adams along with running down

:26:21. > :26:25.Gurley. -- Casillas. We haven't talked much about Case Keenum, he

:26:26. > :26:34.was not drafted, coming out in the same draft as Ryan like, Tannehill,

:26:35. > :26:38.Osweiler, Wilson, RG3. So many vets at the University of Houston but he

:26:39. > :26:41.knows Jarrod Goff is waiting to be the guy who says I am the guy now, I

:26:42. > :26:49.am the starter. This is the best situation of his career he says. --

:26:50. > :27:01.same draft as Andrew Luck and Ryan Tannehill. To the end Boston,

:27:02. > :27:08.Collins takes him off. His first of the year, breaking tackle after

:27:09. > :27:11.tackle. Some bloggers ahead, like Jenkins and Casillas, inside the

:27:12. > :27:28.5-yard line and into the end zone. Touchdown! CHEERING

:27:29. > :27:33.Four huge mistake by Tavon Austin. This ball well thrown by Case

:27:34. > :27:39.Keenum. Collins playing center field, he gets the rebound. Kevin,

:27:40. > :27:48.this is a return for the ages. Right through his hands. Collins breaks on

:27:49. > :27:54.tackle. Three more guys flying by. Reversing his field. Make someone

:27:55. > :27:59.else miss and then it really gets fun. Inside the 10-yard line, convoy

:28:00. > :28:05.of blockers, he refuses to go down, he gets some help to get into the

:28:06. > :28:11.end zone from Janoris Jenkins, wow, huge play by Landon Collins. He has

:28:12. > :28:19.only missed five plays on defense, Collins, this season. Second leading

:28:20. > :28:22.tackler, second-year player out of Alabama. The second round pick,

:28:23. > :28:31.comes up with a huge play for the Steve Spagnuolo defense. There was a

:28:32. > :28:34.penalty on the rounds on the return with the extra point by Robbie Gold,

:28:35. > :28:41.we are tied with the defensive return, 45 yards on the pick, the

:28:42. > :28:48.ricochet, Collins Paulinho in and leaving the other way. One broken

:28:49. > :28:54.Zach Bell after another. The second quarter from London. STUDIO: That

:28:55. > :29:01.has got Twickenham jumping. One of the plays of the season. That one we

:29:02. > :29:04.just saw? It was amazing. If this is not on clean, first off, he's

:29:05. > :29:14.throwing to the deeper receiver and Austin deflected. With those tackles

:29:15. > :29:19.missed, picks up a blocker, four missed tackles, another block from

:29:20. > :29:28.behind, he runs past six, seven, eight, nine. And he won't go down.

:29:29. > :29:34.It shows how important blocking is. That is what they teach you on

:29:35. > :29:39.defense, turn and block, you can get the guys, those are the slow guys,

:29:40. > :29:44.the five lineman, take advantage. No way this guy has been a safety his

:29:45. > :29:49.whole life, my safety Jason Bohn never made a play like that. He has

:29:50. > :29:57.only just come back. Incredible play by Landon Collins. Welcome back to

:29:58. > :30:02.the studio! The Giants needed the defense to step up. Lowe absolutely,

:30:03. > :30:07.they had to have the turnover. Landon Collins has been playing well

:30:08. > :30:16.this entire season. One of the State statistics on screen earlier, team

:30:17. > :30:21.that has the 3-4 record only has 19% chance of making the playoffs. It is

:30:22. > :30:25.almost must win., both these teams in competitive divisions where it is

:30:26. > :30:28.going down to the wire. The Rams have the ability to win games in the

:30:29. > :30:30.division even when they are not very good but for both teams right now

:30:31. > :30:48.loss is going to be a problem. The official called the penalty

:30:49. > :30:53.initially against the Rams. He meant to say the Giants.

:30:54. > :30:57.Bobby Hart, alignment, ran out on to the field. Kick off by gold gold and

:30:58. > :31:09.coming in And the important thing to remember

:31:10. > :31:18.about an unsportsman-like penalty is if you get two, you are

:31:19. > :31:26.automatically objected. He came off the bench, and that is an automatic

:31:27. > :31:35.unsportsman-like penalty. The coach is an offensive

:31:36. > :31:49.co-ordinator. He was in green bank. Giants are 3

:31:50. > :32:03.Get it back to Keenum and downfield, a flight ball and dropped. Going

:32:04. > :32:08.down field for quick, incomplete. Quinn did a good job of playing

:32:09. > :32:11.defensive back there and knocking it away, and preventing the

:32:12. > :32:21.interception. Watch the left-hand there. It is enough to stop that

:32:22. > :32:33.ball being picked off by Rodgers-Cromartie.

:32:34. > :32:44.Brought down by Collins after he captures and runs it to the 47. Ten

:32:45. > :32:50.by Collins and Hall. Two defenders are keeping, trying to keep him from

:32:51. > :32:56.get 1st down. Kendricks powered through. Both Giants tackles picked

:32:57. > :33:05.up these. I think Collins is still... Might

:33:06. > :33:11.be... That 45-yard return took about 90 0 yards, didn't it?

:33:12. > :33:47.We are looking for quick and coverage by the linebacker Robinson.

:33:48. > :33:56.Tackle made by Kennard. A gain of two to the 50-yard line.

:33:57. > :34:00.Defense of the Giants comes in number 19 in the league. Better

:34:01. > :34:06.against the run than against the pass. And the big problem for Gurley

:34:07. > :34:12.this year is yardage after contact. Averaging just about 2.3 yards per

:34:13. > :34:16.carry after contact. That was big contact that time by

:34:17. > :34:34.Kennard. He's down. 45-yard line. Pick up of

:34:35. > :34:41.five. Robinson there to make the stop for the Giants. It is 4th down

:34:42. > :34:47.and Fisher said he would go for 1st down tries on 4th downs inside the

:34:48. > :34:53.opponent's 50. . Sure enough the punting unit is there.

:34:54. > :34:59.Last time they tried to draw the Giants with a hard count, that

:35:00. > :35:02.didn't wofrget

:35:03. > :35:15.Hekker can throw a little bit. Back to his normal position.

:35:16. > :35:27.Inside the ten. And put down there by the special

:35:28. > :35:39.team, the rookie free agent. Nice job by Hekker. A hit there by the

:35:40. > :35:45.Giants Harris. I shouldn't be surprised to find two

:35:46. > :35:55.rugby players here. You experienced it, it was special. It was spernl. I

:35:56. > :36:08.have not been allowed in the Royal Box. To watch was incredible. It is

:36:09. > :36:12.amazing to see how it is. Itried to get in during the World Cup. Today

:36:13. > :36:19.they let me in with open arms. Did you know there is a player in the

:36:20. > :36:26.NFL called Jonathan Joseph? People might tweet me thinking I am him.

:36:27. > :36:30.Any chance of that in the future? I think Anthony fancies it. Whether he

:36:31. > :36:36.will try it or not, we will see. For me, maybe not. You though, James, I

:36:37. > :36:43.have seen you Touted before in the NFL because of your size, that you

:36:44. > :36:48.can do it. I don't think I have got the capability to do that. I would

:36:49. > :36:53.have loved the spectacle, the occasion. And also college football,

:36:54. > :36:57.60,000 people to 100,000 people to watch, who doesn't want to get

:36:58. > :37:01.involved in that? It is incredible the way they market it and spin it

:37:02. > :37:05.around. Can we see rugby growing to that? I hope so. What I like about

:37:06. > :37:09.the NFL is the sport science that goes behind it. How everything is

:37:10. > :37:13.the most advanced. They have four bus loads of people. They have water

:37:14. > :37:17.guys for the water guys and everything is taken care of. If

:37:18. > :37:23.rugby keeps being commercial, it will end up like that. Jo r go and

:37:24. > :37:31.enjoy it. -- go and enjoy it.

:37:32. > :37:37.The kids the American football took place. Surrey park is part of play

:37:38. > :37:45.60. And everyone had a terrific time. The punt by Hekker puts the

:37:46. > :37:49.Giants at their six. With ast 10. -- with a 1st

:37:50. > :38:13.106789 Jennings on the backfield. Rashad Jennings, had some time with

:38:14. > :38:17.an injury. It has been an unbalanced, less running for the

:38:18. > :38:24.Giants. It has been their story the whole season. The rushing attack,

:38:25. > :38:40.averages 76 yards a game. One of the worst in the NFL, obviously.

:38:41. > :38:49.Oh, here they come with. That he turns it off, and Jennings has it.

:38:50. > :38:55.And room to roam. A miss-tackle by Gaines. He's brought down and picks

:38:56. > :39:00.up 25 on a catch and run with a 1st down for the Giants. Well Donald

:39:01. > :39:05.will get in on the quarterback right here as he gets by Pugh. Tremendous

:39:06. > :39:07.job by Manning to let the play develop. Let it off before he is

:39:08. > :39:19.smashed by Donald. 1st 10. Up to about the 33 game,

:39:20. > :39:25.one by Longacre and Donald in the defensive line. We are hearing all

:39:26. > :39:29.these calls by Manning, talk us through what signals he's giving the

:39:30. > :39:36.rest of his offense? If I knew that I would still be playing. Give me an

:39:37. > :39:40.idea. It is all protection. He's at the point now where he feels the

:39:41. > :39:45.most dangerous defense is. He wants the line to know that.

:39:46. > :39:50.Adams, a rookie out of California, third catch this season. Up to the

:39:51. > :39:54.37. Picks up three on the play and he is brought down by Barron on the

:39:55. > :39:59.far side. Some of the calls that Manning makes, he doesn't give that

:40:00. > :40:08.open ma what call that his brother made so they mouse. I have heard a

:40:09. > :40:20.Trump call at times, I wonder if he has to Hilary as much time!

:40:21. > :40:25.They go onside and Gaines has got in the way of Beckham and there is no

:40:26. > :40:30.flag. That is two times in a row now the Rams have got to Manning. The

:40:31. > :40:34.first time off to Rashad Jennings, but that time he had no chance.

:40:35. > :40:38.Lucky just to get the ball out to avoid the sack.

:40:39. > :40:44.The Giants are struggling on 3rd down.

:40:45. > :40:47.Manning has been sacked two times this season. This drive, good job by

:40:48. > :40:58.the Rams to force this punt. An English day, inside Twickenham.

:40:59. > :41:07.Austin on the bounce. All is lose. And Austin looks like

:41:08. > :41:13.he's in. You can see 17 there looking to get his mitts on him.

:41:14. > :41:18.Spinning around, but never really down, I don't think, before the

:41:19. > :41:22.ball. He was laying on top of a Giant defender.

:41:23. > :41:30.It is where it gets really fub. This is where you lose finger nails.

:41:31. > :41:36.Trying to separate them. Looks like Austin has the angle on

:41:37. > :41:40.this ball. Looks like he does. Although Rainey is down there. 43

:41:41. > :41:57.for the Giants. He's got one hand on it at least and maybe also with the

:41:58. > :42:09.hand on it is her... When Lewis got down there, covered it well.

:42:10. > :42:17.You can see Austin rolls over. Roger Lewis there heads up. He knew

:42:18. > :42:37.the ball was lose. He knew his knee had not hit the ground.

:42:38. > :42:45.And on the move and he goes downfield. Caught by Britt, who

:42:46. > :42:48.breaks one tackle on the play of Jenkins and then up to the 37,

:42:49. > :42:53.landing Collins finally catches up with him. Offense. Number 79.

:42:54. > :43:03.. Going up against Jason Pierre-Paul

:43:04. > :43:10.today. That is a load. Two-minute warning at 1. 56.

:43:11. > :43:16.When the ball is fumbled, what do you do next? It is wild underneath

:43:17. > :43:19.there. You try and get the ball, especially in a pile like that

:43:20. > :43:23.anything goes. You try and get out. You are punching, you are kicking.

:43:24. > :43:29.Nobody can see. You can see that as well, two Rams together. That is

:43:30. > :43:34.like the worst place on earth. Right right there. Everything goes on down

:43:35. > :43:40.there, punching kicking. Pulling the hairs on your leg. Trying to break

:43:41. > :43:45.fingers. Looks messy. We have not seen it yet, but when you draw, if

:43:46. > :43:48.you are defensive and if you draw that holding penalty, especially in

:43:49. > :43:51.a situation like that, especially for the defense, it is as good as a

:43:52. > :43:54.sack. No question about that. You are looking at the Giants a and they

:43:55. > :43:58.are getting pressure on the quarterback.

:43:59. > :44:01.Got the hold and all you have to do is affect the quarterback in a

:44:02. > :44:09.fashion and they have been able to do that. There is an interesting

:44:10. > :44:14.case, fraction of seconds is what it is 0.5 of a second, more time he has

:44:15. > :44:19.to throw... Most quarterbacks will be like that. They will dissect you.

:44:20. > :44:24.You get pressure, not so much. And keep keep makes a great play. Gets

:44:25. > :44:30.the receiver down. It is all negated by the hold. Has he impressed you so

:44:31. > :44:35.far this afternoon? You saw his weakness when he tried with that

:44:36. > :44:39.pass over. Boy, did it float. And that is what the weakness is. You

:44:40. > :44:43.want to keep him on the short stuff. He doesn't mind if he's throwing on

:44:44. > :44:49.the run. That is not a bad thing. You can move the pocket with him as

:44:50. > :44:53.well. I imagine Goff at the top of the show, the player they drafted...

:44:54. > :44:58.Come and start, it is just a matter of time. The funny thing is that

:44:59. > :45:02.Goff played in the same kind of system in college as keep keep did.

:45:03. > :45:06.He comes out with the -- Keenum did. He comes out with the same. And Jeff

:45:07. > :45:10.Fisher does not like to throw quarterbacks in cold. The last thing

:45:11. > :45:17.he wants is turnovers. He would rather have control than big plays.

:45:18. > :45:26.Sounds like Tom Coughlin, hates turnovers. That was his philosophy.

:45:27. > :45:36.COMMENTATOR: Actually a penalty, the Rams in a big hole.

:45:37. > :45:55.Another flag. Kenny Britt that time. False start, number 89. Still 1st

:45:56. > :46:00.down. There is a team right now has been analysed as any team in

:46:01. > :46:08.football. Six so far here in the first half. The last two, the Rams

:46:09. > :46:25.going backwards, big-time. Just one so far on the Giants. Austin sealed

:46:26. > :46:31.off by Collins. Ben McAdoo quickly calls time-out. He loves this field

:46:32. > :46:43.position and the fact that was a short game. 1:46 left. STUDIO: Don't

:46:44. > :46:48.forget coverage of the Redskins- Bengals from Wembley next Sunday,

:46:49. > :46:53.1:30pm. And remember the clocks change, don't miss the start of

:46:54. > :46:58.that. Good to hear from you on social media. Which of these teams

:46:59. > :47:08.have the best chance of making the playoffs? I know what you will say,

:47:09. > :47:13.so we will ask Jason first. This is tough but I will go with the Giants.

:47:14. > :47:17.I think they have a chance in their division. When you start to play

:47:18. > :47:23.your division rivals you can come back and play those games.

:47:24. > :47:27.Interesting division, Cowboys without Tony Romo but they will

:47:28. > :47:31.stick with Dak Prescott? You have to assume that it may not happen, we

:47:32. > :47:38.have to assume Dallas will win the division. Seattle could win the West

:47:39. > :47:42.so you are talking wild card for both teams and I think the Rams are

:47:43. > :47:46.better positioned. The Division 1 think in the east is more balanced.

:47:47. > :47:53.There are four teams that could content. Unless Philadelphia falls

:47:54. > :47:58.will stop we will see that this week when they play Minnesota. Any of

:47:59. > :48:05.those games they play is 50 slash 50. What do you think the Cowboys

:48:06. > :48:11.until -- 50-50. Tony Romo one of the great quarterbacks of the modern

:48:12. > :48:14.era, die-hard Cowboy, got injured and Dak Prescott has played lights

:48:15. > :48:18.out. He has played exceptional football but in my opinion Tony Romo

:48:19. > :48:22.is the better play, they will go back to him when his healthy. Who's

:48:23. > :48:28.to say they would not be in the same position with him. I would. I played

:48:29. > :48:32.against him before and I know that other player he is, he is a top five

:48:33. > :48:37.quarterback, when he is healthy. I would be tempted not to break the

:48:38. > :48:43.continuity when Dak Prescott has a bad game, then put Tony Romo in.

:48:44. > :48:56.COMMENTATOR: Keenum, swing pass, Gurley. Picks are four on the play.

:48:57. > :49:05.It was a stop on the play by Robinson. Time-out. STUDIO: Question

:49:06. > :49:10.from Sam for you, Osi, but other than Von Miller who are some of the

:49:11. > :49:18.best pass rushes. Two of them here, Robert Quinn, and he goes for the

:49:19. > :49:22.ball, much like I used to do. And Aaron Donald on the interior,

:49:23. > :49:26.absolute machine. JJ Watt even injured, best defensive player we

:49:27. > :49:37.have had in the late for a long time. Fair to say a Golden era for

:49:38. > :49:43.pass rushing? No question, Beasley last week, tremendous football

:49:44. > :49:53.players. Coming in the backfield. Jason Pierre-Paul, dropped by Quick.

:49:54. > :49:58.Coverage on the play from Jenkins. Tremendous play by the former round,

:49:59. > :50:03.Janoris Jenkins. Obviously practised against Kenny Britt a number of

:50:04. > :50:08.times. -- former Rams player. Not false at all by the Alps routes. --

:50:09. > :50:17.not falls at all by the out route. In the four positions is the

:50:18. > :50:28.turnover, pick sacks thrown by Keenum. And they stopped the clock

:50:29. > :50:36.as well. Hekker. We talked to the Rams on Friday and Hemingway made

:50:37. > :50:40.the stop there, 59 yard punt. Now we will see if they can get Odell

:50:41. > :50:47.Beckham fired up for the Giants. Three catches in the first half so

:50:48. > :50:50.far for just nine yards. Their number one said, it is very obvious,

:50:51. > :50:56.what he can do with the ball after the catch. As you mentioned earlier

:50:57. > :51:02.he leads the NFL in yards after. Last week remember he had most of

:51:03. > :51:12.his yards in the second half. Against Baltimore. 75 yarder and 66

:51:13. > :51:21.yarder. 222 in the game. One time-out. Ringing the backfield. --

:51:22. > :51:22.Rainey in the backfield. Purgatory, look at all the missed tackles.

:51:23. > :51:38.Finally brought down. -- ogled they lose three on the play. , and I

:51:39. > :51:54.should go down as a running play. Downs well. The kit on Donnell. --

:51:55. > :51:57.they head. Tough day, fumbled his first perception, Donnell forced

:51:58. > :52:01.this ball out of his hands with a shunt right to his back. Legal hit

:52:02. > :52:23.by TJ McDonald. Eli Manning underneath, Will Tye,

:52:24. > :52:28.stopped well shy of the first. Great field position, they basically throw

:52:29. > :52:34.the lateral how-to Rainey that get stuff in the backfield. The Rams

:52:35. > :52:35.will have a shot with all three of their time-outs. And they just used

:52:36. > :52:45.one. STUDIO: London's JJ has been playing

:52:46. > :52:50.for the Miami Dolphins, he fell out of favour earlier this season but he

:52:51. > :52:54.has taken his chance this time. He ran through Pittsburgh. The Steelers

:52:55. > :52:58.really looked out of sorts against him. My

:52:59. > :53:04.Miami able to dominate because hesitancy. If he keeps hot like this

:53:05. > :53:08.he could be their guy, they are looking for a running back. Austin

:53:09. > :53:15.will return for the Rams. COMMENTATOR: Hit on the play by

:53:16. > :53:20.Orleans Darkwa, who is a back-up running back for New York. The

:53:21. > :53:46.Giants have a time-out. Josh Brown suspended by the league.

:53:47. > :53:51.Robbie Gold taking his place. It will continue to be a topic

:53:52. > :53:58.throughout the day in the NFL. The Rams have two time-outs.

:53:59. > :54:07.Cunningham in the backfield. Caught by Kenny Britt. Holding on for dear

:54:08. > :54:12.life, the linebacker, Keenan Robinson. Time-out taken. 37-yard

:54:13. > :54:26.line. They know they have the baby leg --

:54:27. > :54:31.big lake of Greg Zuerlein to count on. Not much wind at all here. What

:54:32. > :54:39.is your read on the Rams, they were shut out on opening weekend by San

:54:40. > :54:44.Francisco, 3-3 now after winning three consecutive. Sitting atop the

:54:45. > :54:49.West but now have lost two in a row. Kerr that was a disaster to open the

:54:50. > :54:52.system against the 49ers as anything the surprised if woody with those

:54:53. > :54:56.three and are maybe they are settling back to who they really

:54:57. > :55:00.are. This is a huge for the Rams and the Giants.

:55:01. > :55:08.Cunningham in, Robinson with the block. The ball was on the ground

:55:09. > :55:16.and he throws it almost awaits. With Eli Apple over their covering and

:55:17. > :55:25.incomplete. Olivier Vernon knock the ball out of his hands. Good bounce

:55:26. > :55:30.but then almost created a disaster for the Rams with that ill-advised

:55:31. > :55:34.pass that Eli Apple should have picked up. He got up very slowly and

:55:35. > :55:39.you mentioned earlier with groin and hamstring injuries after not playing

:55:40. > :55:42.against Baltimore. As most two of the last three. -- he has been out

:55:43. > :56:02.two of the last three. Up the middle, Landon Collins, they

:56:03. > :56:11.brought pressure. Definitely caused that invasion. Collins I mentioned

:56:12. > :56:18.earlier has two sacks this season. The play of the day for John so far,

:56:19. > :56:22.but wake-up call for the Giants with that 45 yard interception return. --

:56:23. > :56:29.play of the day for the Giants so far.

:56:30. > :56:36.Into the nickel, outside too often, he looks for some receiver blocks

:56:37. > :56:41.and he gets on. It does not stop Olivier Vernon, Adam Zampa Eli

:56:42. > :56:54.Apple, Adam's apple. They come over to make them stop. 4th down. --

:56:55. > :56:58.Adams and Eli Apple. Both teams squandering at the end of the first

:56:59. > :57:02.half, both teams with good field position but can't do much with it.

:57:03. > :57:08.Vernon goes over holding onto his shoulder, trying to keep up on that

:57:09. > :57:15.story if indeed it is one with a flag throw. False start, offense

:57:16. > :57:21.number 13, 5-yard penalty. Looking at the Giants and what they did last

:57:22. > :57:27.week, from home, is that a reprieve on the beginning of some momentum?

:57:28. > :57:30.Room I'm sure the fans are hoping for that reprieve you are talking

:57:31. > :57:38.about but right now both teams kind of floundering here at the end of

:57:39. > :57:46.the first half. Hekker keeps it outside the numbers. Got a couple

:57:47. > :57:55.down there. Cory Harkey and Harris is down. Their kick-off and punt

:57:56. > :58:00.return man. Really special teams start for the jobs, covering kicks

:58:01. > :58:05.and returning them. -- for the Giants. Took a chance as the ball

:58:06. > :58:17.bounced on the ground. One second left in this half. Shot in the back

:58:18. > :58:20.from Reynolds. Chase Reynolds the back-up running back for the Los

:58:21. > :58:27.Angeles Rams. It was Reynolds who was hit by Landon Collins on the

:58:28. > :58:33.first punt of the day that shook him up.

:58:34. > :58:42.We hope that this type of shot just knocked the wind out of them but

:58:43. > :58:51.serious contact. By Chase Reynolds to the back. Harris.

:58:52. > :59:01.Just like in the states, you've got all the medical personnel in the

:59:02. > :59:06.press box observing at all the personnel that normally on the

:59:07. > :59:09.sideline and then all the London personnel medically that are added

:59:10. > :59:17.to the games being played here in London, whether at Wembley or here

:59:18. > :59:20.at Twickenham. I don't know if they are trying to undo his straps around

:59:21. > :59:38.his shoulder pads. They continue to work on the return

:59:39. > :59:49.man for the New York Giants, Dwayne Harris. Sort: last week -- he had a

:59:50. > :59:56.sore toe. As you see the retrieval of the punt from Hekker and the

:59:57. > :00:02.covering up, minimal return. We take a time-out with one second to play

:00:03. > :00:06.in the first-half ear from London. Terrible to see that at any time.

:00:07. > :00:11.STUDIO: We will keep you posted, he is sitting up, that is positive.

:00:12. > :00:20.What is it like when one of your team-mates go down like that?

:00:21. > :00:26.After a minute or two we are on to the next play. It seems really

:00:27. > :00:31.brutal, but that is the way we are raised. I was standing in the huddle

:00:32. > :00:35.next to our quarterback when they put his shoulder back in after it

:00:36. > :00:38.was dislocated on the sack. When I heard that, I was like... I needed a

:00:39. > :00:48.week off! THE COMMENTATOR: As he catches his

:00:49. > :00:52.breath and is being attended to by the medical trainers and medical

:00:53. > :00:54.staff for the New York Giants, who brought in the full compliment to

:00:55. > :01:17.London. Harris played with Dallas, of course

:01:18. > :01:21.for four years. It is good seeing him getting up on to his feet. He

:01:22. > :01:27.was signed as a free agent back in March, 2015, by the Giants.

:01:28. > :01:32.Originally a sixth round pick by the Cowboys. Was weighed and back on the

:01:33. > :01:40.practise squad then back to ros ter and signed to a division. Here comes

:01:41. > :01:49.the golf cart out from stone mountain Georgia, Dwain Harris.

:01:50. > :01:53.He's always the first guy Down Under kicks and then, as return, a very

:01:54. > :01:57.dangerous tough guy. Good size and it is a good sign that you can see

:01:58. > :02:03.him walking to the cart. And they will check him out in the

:02:04. > :02:08.locker room. He has seven receiving touchdowns, all coming early on with

:02:09. > :02:13.Dallas and then he had four for the Giants last season, four touchdown

:02:14. > :02:20.receptions for the Giants. Three putt touchdowns. One kick off return

:02:21. > :02:23.touchdown. He is a multi-facetted player and obviously the concern is

:02:24. > :02:37.with him. They are looking at his lower back. We saw the hit by Chase

:02:38. > :02:45.Reynolds. How ironic with one second to go. He lets go it's into the end

:02:46. > :02:49.zone at half time. We will try and give you an updates we come out of

:02:50. > :03:03.half time with just a second to play here in the first half.

:03:04. > :03:13.So, they will get into a formation where Eli Manning... We've had a six

:03:14. > :03:21.by Collins of the New York Giants to...

:03:22. > :03:26.??FORCEWHITE STUDIO: So the first quarter was the

:03:27. > :03:31.LA Rams, the second to the New York Giants, getting on the board there.

:03:32. > :03:38.A kick of 29 yards and Collins making one of the plays of the

:03:39. > :03:44.season. A 46-yard return. As one of our viewers Martin X pointed out on

:03:45. > :03:48.social media, Collins with the most rugby-looking touchdown ever.

:03:49. > :03:53.Beautiful stuff. Ten-appease at the half.

:03:54. > :03:58.And it has been an interesting half. Neither offense has managed to get

:03:59. > :04:00.anything going at all. That is what we suspected might happen going into

:04:01. > :04:17.it. 107 passing yards for. Ten a piece at half time. Is that a

:04:18. > :04:21.fair score? I think so. Both these teams would look at those,

:04:22. > :04:25.especially those rushing yards. Only 19 for the Giants. 41 for the Rams.

:04:26. > :04:30.They would think, we should do better than that. It is crucial to

:04:31. > :04:34.the Rams. The Giants, 19, it's nothing. You cannot really win. We

:04:35. > :04:40.have talked about how good this Rams defense is. Is the Giants' playing

:04:41. > :04:46.badly? The Rams is playing extremely well. I am inpressed. The DBs are

:04:47. > :04:49.looking down the receivers. They are generating some pressure on Eli

:04:50. > :04:53.Manning. They have been able to throw the offense out of sorts. They

:04:54. > :04:58.are playing well. How do the Giants change this in the second half? They

:04:59. > :05:04.have got to get the ball to OBJ and try something. They are not having

:05:05. > :05:08.success playing the ball. We talked about Beckham's injury. He's

:05:09. > :05:12.obviously done little in the first half, how does he look to you? You

:05:13. > :05:17.cannot tell. He's not opened it up. Maybe that is the reason. Maybe he's

:05:18. > :05:23.nursing something. We were talking before about the way they are

:05:24. > :05:27.running. It has all been traps and draws and designed to take advantage

:05:28. > :05:32.of St Louis's movement up front. And at some point they need to play

:05:33. > :05:35.straight ahead and see what they do and try and get them on the back

:05:36. > :05:41.foot and slow them down a little bit. Beckham is one of the players

:05:42. > :05:45.we keyed in on at the start of the show and so was Tavon Austin. He was

:05:46. > :05:49.instrumental in the Rams first score of the day. Take us through this

:05:50. > :05:56.one. What you will see is him coming

:05:57. > :06:00.through the middle and the guy underneath pulls it open. If you

:06:01. > :06:04.compare his slant to Beckham's, it is not as finely run. You see there,

:06:05. > :06:07.the linebacker coming forward, but it doesn't have to be, because that

:06:08. > :06:11.safety is waiting to see what happens before he comes off. And

:06:12. > :06:16.then Austin makes the catch in the end zone. When we were talking about

:06:17. > :06:20.that, the comparison between Beckham and Austin, you make the point that

:06:21. > :06:25.Austin is an out and out receiver. You said he's versatile and can play

:06:26. > :06:29.in a lot of positions. He is because of his size, you put him on the

:06:30. > :06:36.outside. He's not a tight route runner. You want to put him anywhere

:06:37. > :06:40.and get him in space. Wide receivers, it is the kind of players

:06:41. > :06:45.they would run for Tavon Austin. And the Giants don't have a Tavon Austin

:06:46. > :06:50.really. You are right. They don't. So it is the defense that came to

:06:51. > :06:55.the party and got them on the board. I am sure this put a big smile on

:06:56. > :07:00.your face. This is incredible. The ball will bounce up for Austin. He

:07:01. > :07:04.will catch it. Look at the runs this guy is making! Going from one side

:07:05. > :07:08.of the field to another. Looking like a running back. Doing something

:07:09. > :07:17.that my good friend Jason Bell is able to do. I have got to give it to

:07:18. > :07:20.Jason... Tips and overthrows. That is how you get interceptions. That

:07:21. > :07:25.is what happened. And the agility when you look at a defensive player,

:07:26. > :07:29.he's like a running man. We don't get the ball in our hands too much,

:07:30. > :07:35.so when we do, we have to show our skills. This is what he's doing. I

:07:36. > :07:37.take back what I said, I think Austin should have caught it. It is

:07:38. > :07:41.on him. Have you noticed the amount of

:07:42. > :07:46.pressure the Giants are bringing, whether it is bringing a safety,

:07:47. > :07:54.whether it is them, they are playing very well. They are really

:07:55. > :07:59.surprised. #8 Keep keep has had three

:08:00. > :08:07.interceptions. No other quarterback has had more than one. So that

:08:08. > :08:10.pressure really getting to the Rams. Look at the quarterback stats and

:08:11. > :08:13.you can see them on the screen right now. Not a prolific half runner from

:08:14. > :08:24.either player. 21 passes from 107 yards. That is

:08:25. > :08:28.the key. They are not throwing anything that's very long. They want

:08:29. > :08:34.to get the running game going. That is easier said than done. How do the

:08:35. > :08:38.Giants do that in the second half? They have to get created. Get some

:08:39. > :08:44.balls down the field to make that defensive backup.

:08:45. > :08:49.We will look into a bit more of this in just a moment's time. All season

:08:50. > :08:52.long, as part of our coverage here, OC and Jason have met other

:08:53. > :09:05.sportsman and compared notes. . We are here at St Mary's University,

:09:06. > :09:09.five minutes away from twik hanment stadium.

:09:10. > :09:13.-- Twickenham stadium. NFL is coming to the home of English rugby.

:09:14. > :09:19.Something our next guest holds dear to his heart.

:09:20. > :09:26.Come on in here, my friend. How are you? I am good. How are you? I

:09:27. > :09:32.cannot complain. You look like a tank. You look like you lift. It is

:09:33. > :09:38.exciting to see the NFL coming to Twickenham. A big fan? A big fan. :

:09:39. > :09:44.Unfortunately I am a Jets fan. Because you are a Jets fan I will go

:09:45. > :09:49.extra hard on you today. You are still in excellent shape,

:09:50. > :09:54.man. Yes. Kind of sexy. Don't mind me saying. Apparently American

:09:55. > :09:59.football is twice as physical as rugby. How do you feel about that? I

:10:00. > :10:05.can see the argument it is twice as physical. I think the impacts are

:10:06. > :10:10.hands above what we get in rugby. We get more of a repetitive load,

:10:11. > :10:17.whereas you get a one-shot knock-out. I've had my injuries,

:10:18. > :10:21.I've had knees, bicep. I've had five knee surgeries, hip surgery. I tore

:10:22. > :10:27.cartilage in my knee. Stitched it. I had that once. You know what I'm

:10:28. > :10:32.talking about. As a fan of NFL I have seen from how hard knocks to

:10:33. > :10:37.how Ruthlet the sport can be. Guys can turn up for a few games and turn

:10:38. > :10:43.up in preseason thand are on their own. In rugby we usually have a

:10:44. > :10:47.season or so security. It is tough. Even though we are a family and one,

:10:48. > :10:50.you know at the end of the day you are playing for yourself. And you

:10:51. > :10:59.have to go out there every single week and perform. If you don't

:11:00. > :11:05.perform, you are gone. 23 bench presses. It is unchartered

:11:06. > :11:11.territory. Probably do 60 just to warm up. I think you set me up. I

:11:12. > :11:15.think 225 eds. This is like sink or swim now!

:11:16. > :11:24.I'll be like, cut, cut, cut the music. That didn't happen! Are you

:11:25. > :11:28.ready? Let's do it! One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight...

:11:29. > :11:31.Given all you have been through, all the injuries and all the scars that

:11:32. > :11:36.you have right now, would you do it all over again? In a heart beat. Me

:11:37. > :11:41.too! I play for my country. I have won the Premiership title. I have

:11:42. > :11:45.won a Lions series. I wouldn't trade one of those experiences. You have

:11:46. > :12:01.to get this last one. 23... ... There it is.

:12:02. > :12:04.You got to 20 pretty easy. And dropped all of a sudden. Coming to

:12:05. > :12:15.the game at Twickenham? Definitely. As we are in Twickenham let's get

:12:16. > :12:22.Anthony Watson now. How are you? All good. How long have you followed the

:12:23. > :12:26.NFL? Two or three years now. Mostly in the last year, you know, I have

:12:27. > :12:30.been watching a lot of red zone on Sundays and we've got a little

:12:31. > :12:34.fantasy group at Bath, so all the boys are giving each other banter

:12:35. > :12:40.and stuff. How is the fantasy team doing? I am three-in-three.

:12:41. > :12:48.There is a good question to start off with. What happened with fantasy

:12:49. > :12:53.rugby? I don't know. I think it's, as a player, you are not allowed to

:12:54. > :13:01.have a fantasy team in rugby. I leave that to my parents and stuff.

:13:02. > :13:05.Jonathan jops said you might fancy a go at the NFL, is that about right?

:13:06. > :13:09.It is not something I would rule out, for sure. It is an unbelievable

:13:10. > :13:12.sport. I think the freedom they get to express themselves is something

:13:13. > :13:16.which is attractive to me. I think it is a great spectacle. It is

:13:17. > :13:19.great, it is a great sport to be involved with. So, yeah, it is

:13:20. > :13:25.definitely something I wouldn't rule out. Do you think he has the

:13:26. > :13:30.potential? I have studied this man. He has the size, the speed and the

:13:31. > :13:37.pace as we like to call it out here. A winger, a receiver. A phenomenal

:13:38. > :13:43.athlete. We will open yo you with -- welcome you with open arms. We are

:13:44. > :13:47.seeing more sportsmen making the transition into the NFL, is that a

:13:48. > :13:52.trend that will continue? I think so. We know the amount of money. You

:13:53. > :13:58.will see more and more players trying to make that leap. It is not

:13:59. > :14:03.like sock ker where you have to at a young age. In the NFL, you are a

:14:04. > :14:06.great athlete and you can run, you can teach that guy how to be a

:14:07. > :14:10.football player. Any position? You don't want to be a quarterback. But

:14:11. > :14:14.a guy like a receiver, if he has the skills this man has, or running

:14:15. > :14:18.back, which is more instinctive you can teach them to be a running back,

:14:19. > :14:22.they will be more successful. Which positions do you look at when you

:14:23. > :14:26.watch the NFL? To the wide receivers. I like to watch their

:14:27. > :14:29.footwork when they get the ball in their hands and their ability to

:14:30. > :14:35.exploit space and stuff like that. It is awesome to watch. And running

:14:36. > :14:37.backwards as -- and running guys as well, seeing how they manoeuvre

:14:38. > :14:41.themselves out of positions where they look compromised. How do you

:14:42. > :14:46.find the difference between styles of play over a receiver or a runner

:14:47. > :14:50.back in the way you would be running in rugby? ? I think the receivers is

:14:51. > :14:54.similar to when a winger gets the ball. Both are comparable to where a

:14:55. > :14:58.winger would touch the ball. Sometimes you will be in a confined

:14:59. > :15:03.area in the wing, pressure on you. That is similar to a running back, I

:15:04. > :15:08.guess. Other times you get the ball from the kick counter, again when

:15:09. > :15:12.you have got space. Sip particular to a punt re-- similar to a punt

:15:13. > :15:16.return. On the outside, one block and a couple of guys in front of

:15:17. > :15:22.him. That is like taking a long pass in rugby? Exactly. Just like that.

:15:23. > :15:23.It is something I like to watch and see how the guys manoeuvre in areas

:15:24. > :15:33.like that. This is a question of Weasley often

:15:34. > :15:41.thrown around by British fans, people suggest rugby is a tougher

:15:42. > :15:46.game. It is hard to compare the two until you have pads and helmets but

:15:47. > :15:53.I think that increases the physicality. If you want to contrast

:15:54. > :15:58.them, you might be prone to different injuries. It is difficult

:15:59. > :16:05.to say without having played both. Fast and explosive game. Fundamental

:16:06. > :16:13.game is that is more free-flowing. Cobb absolutely, there is more

:16:14. > :16:22.running in rugby, definitely it is different like that. In this game it

:16:23. > :16:33.is even Stevens at half-time, who is your money on. Kerr and the Giants

:16:34. > :16:39.fan. No wonder he invited him. How confident are you this season? It

:16:40. > :16:45.has been a bit Jekyll and Hyde? Four pretty confident, the guys talk

:16:46. > :16:49.about trying to get OBJ on the ball, we saw what he could do last week

:16:50. > :16:54.with those two touchdowns. I would like to see more of that. Does he

:16:55. > :17:03.seem out of sorts? I would not say so. Obviously had very limited

:17:04. > :17:07.touches so far. Waiting for the first penalty in international rugby

:17:08. > :17:14.for unnecessary celebration. It will not come any time soon. Gentleman

:17:15. > :17:17.sport. Still a bit more time before the second half. Outside of the

:17:18. > :17:22.Giants, which other teams have you seen this season that could be

:17:23. > :17:27.contenders which Mark Vira I think the Eagles are looking pretty good.

:17:28. > :17:32.Carson rents has been going pretty well. And I think the Vikings are

:17:33. > :17:44.still undefeated. -- Carson it will be pretty closely matched

:17:45. > :17:52.competition. What about the first game ever at Twickenham, what next

:17:53. > :17:56.for the NFL over here? I think it is great, talking about potentially

:17:57. > :18:03.having a team head, that would be unbelievable. Having these regular

:18:04. > :18:12.games is awesome. COMMENTATOR: Let's get back to the game. COMMENTATOR:

:18:13. > :18:19.Stacey on the sideline. An update on Dwayne Harris, still awaiting word,

:18:20. > :18:24.Ben McAdoo uncertain about his return. Being Rainey and Sterling

:18:25. > :18:27.Shepard will return in his absence. As for the running game, it has been

:18:28. > :18:33.porous in the first off, coach told me the Giants need more attempts.

:18:34. > :18:37.Coaching the coach, this is another tight ball game and we are built for

:18:38. > :18:49.this in the second half. Stacey, thank you. Case Keenum and his team

:18:50. > :18:53.on the 19-yard line. Pierre-Paul, they have a receiver downfield but

:18:54. > :18:57.incomplete as they were taking a look deep and they could not

:18:58. > :19:08.connect. Kenny Britt coverage went missing. Great route by Kenny Britt.

:19:09. > :19:11.Collins for some reason thought he was going on the crossing route and

:19:12. > :19:20.he was so glad to see the ball sailed over his head. Would have

:19:21. > :19:26.been a touchdown. Early in the season the main target was Brian

:19:27. > :19:31.Quick catching the touchdown passes. Britt has been the man sense. Girlie

:19:32. > :19:44.brought down by Kennet. -- a good sign for the Rams. They're

:19:45. > :19:52.rushing attack has been woeful today. As has been the Giants'. Both

:19:53. > :20:03.those turnovers turned into seven points.

:20:04. > :20:15.Six defensive backs including Eli Apple for the Giants. Keenum moves

:20:16. > :20:26.up nicely and he finds his tight end. Who has got the cash to the 32,

:20:27. > :20:33.picks up the first. 1st down for the Rams. Keenum does a good job with

:20:34. > :20:37.his pocket to awareness. Saw the Giants were rushing wide trying to

:20:38. > :20:42.get indeed but he stepped up smartly to make that completion for the 1st

:20:43. > :20:49.down. Those little things that a quarterback does. Awareness of his

:20:50. > :20:58.pocket. Good job by Keenum. Two tight ends in the secondary. They go

:20:59. > :21:06.outside. Kendricks has it, Collins was there. Andrew Adams makes the

:21:07. > :21:10.hit. They pick up three. It is really the quarterback's biggest

:21:11. > :21:14.fear after play-action, away from the rush that time. As soon as

:21:15. > :21:20.Keenum got his eyes back down the field he was right in his face. Good

:21:21. > :21:26.job again by keen to get rid of that ball. -- by Keenum. Just received

:21:27. > :21:44.word Harris is questionable. A starter all season and defensive

:21:45. > :21:53.tackle, Hankins, had sacked last week against Joe Flacco. Good

:21:54. > :21:55.mobility as he skated down the line. Waiting for Gurley to turn back up

:21:56. > :22:27.the field. Coming in. Caught across the way by

:22:28. > :22:34.Quick. By Rodgers-Cromartie and Eli Apple. They get him out to the 39.

:22:35. > :22:41.Really good tackle by Rodgers-Cromartie. Keeping Quick

:22:42. > :22:48.from turning upfield and getting the 1st down. Beckham back and Hekker

:22:49. > :22:59.will punt. Just enter the second half. Harris with that lower back

:23:00. > :23:07.injury if you are just joining us. Probably he will not return. Beckham

:23:08. > :23:12.from the 10-yard line. Chase Reynolds the leading special teams

:23:13. > :23:32.tackle the Los Angeles Rams. Flag throw.

:23:33. > :23:42.Eli Manning ready to come out on the field. During the kick, holding,

:23:43. > :23:46.number 30 of the return team. Half the distance to the goal from the

:23:47. > :23:56.end of the kick, New York ball, 1st down. The began his season with the

:23:57. > :24:03.Rams and he was let go, frustration there, he had space to roam. , Guy

:24:04. > :24:07.will give you a warning about Kristian Phillips, he said he would

:24:08. > :24:13.wind me up. Hopefully it won't go wrong. You have nothing to fear.

:24:14. > :24:19.Cobb I have been told it is a pretty good week, Osi taught you how to

:24:20. > :24:23.score. Since I met him we have done well in the primly, my first goal

:24:24. > :24:30.yesterday and I'm happy about that. That is my gift for myself. Kerr

:24:31. > :24:37.score a few more and you can come back. Who is your team? One, New

:24:38. > :24:47.York in blue, you can imagine. My family from New York. Giants fan. LA

:24:48. > :24:50.Rams, you can have that. You have told me hundreds of other people

:24:51. > :24:55.that you could do this, this could be you after Leicester'. When the

:24:56. > :24:58.kickers were warming up I was watching their technique and it is

:24:59. > :25:03.very impressive but I believe I can do it. Something to think about,

:25:04. > :25:07.couple of practice sessions that I believe in myself, it is a dream of

:25:08. > :25:14.mine and I'm going for it. At the end of his contract? Or whenever the

:25:15. > :25:18.Giants need me. Vocal forum here now if you want to say to them come and

:25:19. > :25:25.get me. You have my number, just call me. More that you are just

:25:26. > :25:29.right" Odell Beckham over there. It is so loud I did not hear you. That

:25:30. > :25:34.is where you said you would wind me up. We will let you go and do your

:25:35. > :25:42.addition, which one of them do you think you should take out? I am

:25:43. > :25:44.obviously the kicker. There is nothing else other than that. Where

:25:45. > :26:01.done here. I'm done with you. Stop. COMMENTATOR: After the punt on the

:26:02. > :26:09.first possession, Jennings hit, terrific hybrid safety linebacker,

:26:10. > :26:16.one of type in the NFL. Not a bad start in the second half. You can

:26:17. > :26:26.see how one possession here of any significant time and that only lead

:26:27. > :26:38.to three points. Eli Manning in the nickel. Jennings hit at the five.

:26:39. > :26:41.Troy Hill with some help. Mark Barron there again. The main asset

:26:42. > :26:49.of this Rams defense, their speed and pursuit, seeing it play after

:26:50. > :26:57.play. The Giants with the ball in space but not gaining much yardage.

:26:58. > :27:05.22 passes, 11 runs from the Giants. Not the kind of balance they were

:27:06. > :27:09.looking for. 3rd down. The pressure was coming from the sideline, Robert

:27:10. > :27:17.Quinn blew that player. Manning and the last second try through the

:27:18. > :27:20.screen pass and saw Ogletree right in the middle and threw the ball

:27:21. > :27:25.into the ground smartly or it would have been a touchdown for the Rams.

:27:26. > :27:39.The pressure by Quinn, and the coverage by Ogletree. Flowers got

:27:40. > :27:43.beat on that one. Now we have Brad Wing panting from underneath the

:27:44. > :27:51.crossbar and he slipped as he gets. Out of bounds near midfield. Flag

:27:52. > :27:58.throw. -- slipped as he kicked. Brad Wing when he was planting slipped

:27:59. > :28:04.and then the subsequent penalty flag as everyone was running the other

:28:05. > :28:10.way. During the kick, holding, receiving the number 39. 10-yard

:28:11. > :28:16.penalty from the end of the kick. Los Angeles ball, 1st down. Malcolm

:28:17. > :28:24.Brown of the Rams, the eighth penalty.

:28:25. > :28:33.The turf causing more issues, lots of messages coming in on Twitter.

:28:34. > :28:44.Jeff Fisher asking, if they do not have a winning season, is his time

:28:45. > :28:50.with the Rams over?, Clyne, five years with the Rams, twice as good

:28:51. > :28:57.as the three or four coaches who preceded him, they do not want the

:28:58. > :29:02.turnover. We joke about his latterly, .500 on a good day. That

:29:03. > :29:08.is what it is, he is a good coach and he can bring a young team up and

:29:09. > :29:13.develop them. Defensive head coach and you start off on that side of

:29:14. > :29:17.the ball. The age of the head coach is interesting, Tom Coughlin older

:29:18. > :29:22.than a lot of his players but the players responded, is that changing

:29:23. > :29:27.in the NFL, that the players will react better to younger coaches like

:29:28. > :29:30.in other sports. I think the younger coaches tend to identify more with

:29:31. > :29:35.the players and that is the difference. This generation has

:29:36. > :29:39.completely changed from when we came up, now you have maybe the younger

:29:40. > :29:43.head coach to identify and really build camaraderie with the younger

:29:44. > :29:49.players. Having said that you have Bruce Arians and Mike Zimmer both

:29:50. > :29:54.have their first head coaching jobs in their 60s, just approaching 60.

:29:55. > :30:00.They used to say when you hit 55 that is it for coaching. Belichick

:30:01. > :30:06.still going at 66, a lot of older coaches. You young guys need

:30:07. > :30:10.authority figures. To keep you in line. It is about connecting with

:30:11. > :30:25.the players on a social level. Zimmer does that well still.

:30:26. > :30:33.And the sweep and it goes here to Tavon Austin.

:30:34. > :30:54.Chased out of bounds by verm Vernon. It is a spectacular

:30:55. > :30:59.stadium and the pitch, it is the width of a rugby field, obviously,

:31:00. > :31:04.but a lot bigger than a normal football field.

:31:05. > :31:09.Wrapped up Biharry son, one of the newest -- by Harrison, one of the

:31:10. > :31:12.newest Giants. You would think it is good field position, but it is not

:31:13. > :31:16.here in England. This is good pitch position. I have to say that very

:31:17. > :31:23.carefully. I knew where you were going! Am I that obvious? They had

:31:24. > :31:31.the Rugby World Cup here last year. It was awesome, too. It was, yes.

:31:32. > :31:40.The NFL comes to play, they have a game here next week.

:31:41. > :31:50.Got it. He had started the season as he gets the 1st down and brought

:31:51. > :31:53.down by Robinson, he started the season by getting hit behind the

:31:54. > :32:03.line of scrimmage. Over half the time he was getting the ball there

:32:04. > :32:05.was not any breathing space. You could see how determined he was

:32:06. > :32:31.to get the 1 1st down. They come from the side... Coverage

:32:32. > :32:36.by Jenkins. And they were putting pressure off

:32:37. > :32:42.the edge. This is another good play by Jenkins. He goes up with his

:32:43. > :32:47.right-hand between the two hands to knock that ball away. Look at Britt,

:32:48. > :32:53.with tremendous effort, knowing the ball was still alive, trying to make

:32:54. > :32:54.the catch. Jenkins who got beat earlier in the game, has bounced

:32:55. > :33:14.back nicely. Gurley, but with a great read on it

:33:15. > :33:21.there, Collins. Has to pick six. Talking about Dan gaining down to

:33:22. > :33:25.the 42-yard line of New York. We had a nice conversation with Gurley,

:33:26. > :33:27.telling us how he likes to be a receiver. When you are a receiver

:33:28. > :33:50.there are two or three guys. Cunningham is in.

:33:51. > :33:55.Into 3rd 8. Caught by Britt. Jenkins with a great open field

:33:56. > :34:01.tackle. Jenkins, the former Rams. Down to

:34:02. > :34:06.the 42. It is man-to-man coverage because the Giants were coming with

:34:07. > :34:10.an all out blitz. That puts a lot of pressure on the

:34:11. > :34:25.corner. But Jenkins, another big play for New York.

:34:26. > :34:33.Beckham is back here taking the place of Harris, inside the five.

:34:34. > :34:46.What a punt by one of the best in the business, Johnny Hekker.

:34:47. > :34:58.Raze 668 catches. 997 yards. A Super Bowl as well. Not bad going.

:34:59. > :35:03.I guess you guys go back a little bit.

:35:04. > :35:06.You came to London in 2007 for the first international game, which

:35:07. > :35:10.turned oh tout be a very good season for the Giants. And the play must

:35:11. > :35:15.have some special memories for you? It did. The memories were not really

:35:16. > :35:21.on the field. It was after the game. We had a party. We went to London.

:35:22. > :35:28.It was off the charts. You made the flight back though! Barely! We ended

:35:29. > :35:31.up going the next day, the so that ended up being pretty good for us. A

:35:32. > :35:37.good night. I want to hear more about this. I don't think you do! An

:35:38. > :35:41.interesting season. You weren't in great shape really coming into

:35:42. > :35:46.London. You went in to the playoffs as underdogs really. It all came

:35:47. > :35:49.together for you? It was more of a revenge tour, like all the teams who

:35:50. > :35:56.had beaten us during the year we came back and beat all of them. We

:35:57. > :36:01.played the Cowboys. The Green Bay Packers, we ended up beating them.

:36:02. > :36:05.The Patriots beat us week 16. We came back and beat them. We were the

:36:06. > :36:13.underdogs. A double dig get underdog. I remember thinking, has

:36:14. > :36:17.everybody taken stupid pills? Did they see week 17 when we let them

:36:18. > :36:22.off the hook. So the experts don't know everything. But these guys do.

:36:23. > :36:27.Naturally. That must have been a massive motivator.

:36:28. > :36:30.It was unbelievable. One thing I will never forget, we played Dallas

:36:31. > :36:37.in the playoffs. That was the best team by far. I remember going half

:36:38. > :36:40.time, like he scored a long touchdown. I was like, we're going

:36:41. > :36:43.to get it. It was an unbelievable season. Going up, underdogs every

:36:44. > :36:58.single game. It was great. THE COMMENTATOR: A terrific play and

:36:59. > :37:04.big hit made on the play, with a loss of two.

:37:05. > :37:08.You know they had two blockers in front of Jennings here. Watch

:37:09. > :37:17.Ogletree get in here to make this play. Tremendous play by Ogletree.

:37:18. > :37:31.The middle linebacker was an outside backer for the Rams.

:37:32. > :37:41.Manning, 2nd 126789 looking for Beckham. They beat -- 2nd 12.

:37:42. > :37:45.Looking for Beckham. At 19. He's up to the 19-yard line of New York. The

:37:46. > :37:51.key here is to get the ball out quickly to Beckham. Then the

:37:52. > :38:01.adjustment to the ball, perfectly thrown by Eli Manning.

:38:02. > :38:14.Outside Cruz... Tangles across the way with Gaines. A nice conversation

:38:15. > :38:22.with the coach yesterday, he and Eli Manning and their relationship. Well

:38:23. > :38:25.he's been in Green Bay with ar Ron Rogers. He says all three, although

:38:26. > :38:28.they have different personalities, prepare as well as anybody. And they

:38:29. > :38:48.have the killer instinct. Ogletree get 1st down. One thing

:38:49. > :38:53.they have in common, you said I could bring each quarterback to the

:38:54. > :38:56.sideline and they could give me the smallest detail of what happened on

:38:57. > :39:00.a particular play or series. . It comes from the preparation and of

:39:01. > :39:07.course from experience. What a luxury he has as a first year head

:39:08. > :39:16.coach to have a guy with the experience of Eli Manning. 1st 10.

:39:17. > :39:19.Oh, big hit. Hit made by Maurice Alexander. Still

:39:20. > :39:33.a gain of four with the quick hitter. Out to the 36:

:39:34. > :39:37.Beckham said Shepard, himself and Cruz are one-shot guys. They can

:39:38. > :39:43.take the shot and take it the distance.

:39:44. > :39:56.Ogletree around, his shoulder pads out to the 45 45-yard. Hayes is

:39:57. > :39:58.helping with Rashad Jennings. This is a great situation with 3rd down

:39:59. > :40:16.and a yard to go. Filling up the box. 3rd 1. Looking

:40:17. > :40:22.for Beckham, who could not bring it down with the coverage on the play

:40:23. > :40:26.by Lamarcus Joyner. I think he had the opportunity at the end of this

:40:27. > :40:30.to get both hands up there. If he gets both hands up there, he makes

:40:31. > :40:36.this catch with ease. Well, maybe not with ease, with the pressure

:40:37. > :40:41.there, by Joyner. Still you like to see him go up with two hands.

:40:42. > :40:42.Although he's made so many spectacular one-hand catches in his

:40:43. > :41:08.career. Let's talk about this Giants

:41:09. > :41:11.receiving and start with Odell Beckham. There's so much attention

:41:12. > :41:16.on him. How talented a receiver do you think

:41:17. > :41:19.he is? The skies the limit with him. I don't think there's any

:41:20. > :41:24.limitations on how good he can be or how good he is right now. The only

:41:25. > :41:28.thing that really holds him back is what's between his ears. Getting in

:41:29. > :41:32.his head, getting him out of his game, it is part of sports. All

:41:33. > :41:37.sports. You try and get the player not to focus on what he has to do

:41:38. > :41:41.and focus on something else and that is kind of what all these teams have

:41:42. > :41:45.been trying to do since they played the Rams two years ago. And

:41:46. > :41:49.receivers and quarterbacks like to talk a lot of the time. It is funny,

:41:50. > :41:55.I remember playing and I was too tired to ever talk to anybody. I

:41:56. > :41:59.remember, what's the play... So you played it cool. Didn't let it phase

:42:00. > :42:03.you? There was a lot of talking, maybe with the big dudes, but not

:42:04. > :42:08.much talking out on the island right there. With Beckham and his off

:42:09. > :42:13.field antics, not on the field of play, but getting wound up with

:42:14. > :42:19.history onics anding a stated, is that something which as he -- and is

:42:20. > :42:23.that something which will disappear dorks you think? One thing I would

:42:24. > :42:29.like him to do is understand what it is to play in the NFL. It is not an

:42:30. > :42:34.individual sport. It is the ultimate team game. He needs to focus on

:42:35. > :42:38.winning. Focus on his team-mates. Focus on what's important. All this

:42:39. > :42:41.other stuff to me, it seems like a waste of energy. That is what

:42:42. > :42:46.rookies and young players normally do in the league. He'll figure it

:42:47. > :42:51.out. He's 23. All the great highlight catches, not one game with

:42:52. > :43:01.him on the field. So not saying that is his fault.

:43:02. > :43:10.Waiting for Victor Cruz to do something like that. Sounds like you

:43:11. > :43:13.had a big time last time you were in London.

:43:14. > :43:23.Thank you. Appreciate it.

:43:24. > :43:32.A catch and run of 20. To the 25 of LA. That is what we were talking

:43:33. > :43:36.about earlier, the preference to be a receiver at times, because he's

:43:37. > :43:40.got this ability. He makes a miss there. Another one right there and

:43:41. > :43:47.then powers through for another five yards.

:43:48. > :43:49.That is a huge play. Got Jason Pierre-Paul coming down.

:43:50. > :44:04.A great second effort. Gurley making his way. Initially by

:44:05. > :44:09.Jennings. Big play so far has been the Giants defense and landing, they

:44:10. > :44:14.just had the Giants defense only had two take aways, both interceptions

:44:15. > :44:23.by Jenkins. But this time it was landing Collins with the pick six

:44:24. > :44:28.for defensive co-ordinator. And of the ball was perfectly thrown

:44:29. > :44:36.by Tavon Austin. It went through his hands and Collins picked it up.

:44:37. > :44:46.2nd 2. Down on the play by Shepard. Out

:44:47. > :44:52.near the 36-yard line. Good patience by Kennard, keeping the pass play

:44:53. > :45:01.alive until the last moment, when couldn't find anything. Needed

:45:02. > :45:05.little yardage for 1st down. Talk about Kennard, set of records.

:45:06. > :45:23.Passing yards in college football. And Kennard... A gain of two on the

:45:24. > :45:46.play, after the 37-yard line. NFL Total Access...

:45:47. > :46:08.The blue with dead and the pressure came from everywhere. Case Keenum

:46:09. > :46:16.was looking there. Connor Hankins right here. Actually he is on the

:46:17. > :46:26.side. He gets inside Robinson. And again Keenum kind of runs into the

:46:27. > :46:44.sack. Hankins cleaning it up. Losing six.

:46:45. > :46:56.Third quarter comes to a close. Two teams at .500. STUDIO: The score

:46:57. > :47:03.still tired, very evenly poised. I do not think the St Louis fans were

:47:04. > :47:08.cheering Victor Cruz. I think it is so much fun to watch Hankins and

:47:09. > :47:13.Harris, Hankins doing everything that they have got Snacks to do but

:47:14. > :47:19.when they are together it is like Sam Adams and Tony Sirigu 's were

:47:20. > :47:28.together at the Ravens. What they need is a little linebacker behind

:47:29. > :47:33.them. You can use that to your advantage as a linebacker. I love

:47:34. > :47:42.this, it might not be exciting, you might want to see Tavon Austin and

:47:43. > :47:48.OBJ but I love great defense bingo. -- Tony Siragusa. This week already

:47:49. > :47:54.started. Fascinating game on Thursday, the other Thursday, Green

:47:55. > :47:59.Bay beat Chicago Byrd it was far from a vintage performance. Not a

:48:00. > :48:07.great performance, the Bears are just not very good, especially in

:48:08. > :48:15.the secondary. What is up with Aaron Rodgers? He should change his name,

:48:16. > :48:21.he is not Aaron Rodgers. He usually is very accurate. By now he is not

:48:22. > :48:27.on point with his receivers. One of the big games that affect this one

:48:28. > :48:38.is Seattle at Arizona, huge game. The other big game is Minnesota at

:48:39. > :48:46.Philadelphia, who have had two bad losses in a row. Carson Wentz, is he

:48:47. > :48:49.for real, Minnesota could be looking for a quarterback again. They know

:48:50. > :49:14.how to get after quarterbacks. In. As a running back. Incomplete.

:49:15. > :49:22.Going for Brit and coverage by Jenkins. , if I Rams I'm going to

:49:23. > :49:25.throw the ball to the other side of the field, away from Jenkins. It

:49:26. > :49:40.comes down again and he slips just enough to allow Jenkins to beat in

:49:41. > :49:49.the ball, basically. Hekker to punt. The is Harris. He is back out there

:49:50. > :50:17.after hurting his lower back. He retrieves this.

:50:18. > :50:24.STUDIO: Next Sunday of course on the BBC you can see the third

:50:25. > :50:26.International series game, Redskins and the Bengals, that is on next

:50:27. > :50:48.weekend. Cruz, hit by gains, first-round

:50:49. > :50:53.pick. Manning had time to look over the entire field. Initially wanted

:50:54. > :51:08.to go to back the left side that he saw he was covered. -- EJ Gaines.

:51:09. > :51:21.First and ten. Beckham thought he might get more. He gained six,.,

:51:22. > :51:24.this is a good flock by decking, Shepard had to go and make an

:51:25. > :51:27.adjustment to make this catch but the flock on Hill is enough to get

:51:28. > :51:54.in that five yard gain. Shepard banged up on the play, the

:51:55. > :51:59.catch made. Kerr I asked Odell Beckham about Shepard and he says he

:52:00. > :52:08.is in the phenomenal, tremendous talent. He shows toughness on that

:52:09. > :52:17.one. The outstretched reach of Victor Cruz. Coverage by TJ

:52:18. > :52:40.McDonald. Four I think it is having an effect on the front four.

:52:41. > :52:49.Shepard outside, Beckham long and good tackle made across the way by

:52:50. > :52:55.Troy Hill. Jermaine Johnson -- Trumaine Johnson and secondary for

:52:56. > :53:02.the early rounds. Further down coming on. Eli Manning says he gets

:53:03. > :53:09.a text message every game from Tom Coughlin. Keeps in contact with his

:53:10. > :53:21.old coach. , they have 12 great years.

:53:22. > :53:36.Will Tye jousting with Mark Barron. The Giants hoping for the flag. Four

:53:37. > :53:43.Allan Donald and Dominique Easley with pressure on Manning. You can

:53:44. > :53:49.see getting involved there, coverage in the secondary on the tight end by

:53:50. > :53:54.Mark Barron. Seventh of the day for Brad Wing. The pressure of the

:53:55. > :54:06.middle. From the 12. Some room on this site.

:54:07. > :54:20.Another block from Kendricks. He takes the ball up nearly 32. 21 yard

:54:21. > :54:25.return by Tavon Austin. Lots of big names have been dropping by both you

:54:26. > :54:30.had better be on your best behaviour, Osi, the boss in town.

:54:31. > :54:42.Roger Goodell, commissioner of the NFL. Must be an exciting time to be

:54:43. > :54:46.watching at Twickenham. Four quite an honour to be able to play at this

:54:47. > :54:51.stadium and you can see the fans reacting to this before the game and

:54:52. > :54:54.inside the stadium. I think it is a thrill for the players, they are

:54:55. > :54:58.excited about it as well. It is great for the NFL and another step

:54:59. > :55:01.in our development which are reasonably happy about. Did you

:55:02. > :55:06.notice split it would be as much of a success when you first roll the

:55:07. > :55:11.dice for London? When I can live to you and say I did that I didn't. I

:55:12. > :55:15.do not think anybody anticipated it would turn out this way. When it

:55:16. > :55:28.first started we were anxious to see how the fans would react. To be able

:55:29. > :55:35.to say we now have close to 17 games, I do not think with the

:55:36. > :55:41.powerful this will happen. There are two' keys to it, fans reaction here

:55:42. > :55:57.in London but we never would have guessed that. 23 teams to come over

:55:58. > :56:00.and all of them want. They can do it without compromising their

:56:01. > :56:06.competitiveness on the field, that is a good outcome., England A that

:56:07. > :56:09.they think rugby should be doing this in other countries. Be one of

:56:10. > :56:16.the fastest-growing sports back in the states. There is such a

:56:17. > :56:20.connection. The route of our game and must be unlikely, although

:56:21. > :56:23.people have not pinpointed that. You can see the connection. It is a

:56:24. > :56:35.great thing for us to be in the affiliate.

:56:36. > :56:41.After the punt, going deep, deflected, intercepted for a second

:56:42. > :56:50.time by Collins and again he has block is ahead. He breaks on tackle

:56:51. > :56:58.but then taken down by Tavon Austin. Two picks, Landon Collins. The Giant

:56:59. > :57:03.defense only had two takeaway is the entire season coming into today.,

:57:04. > :57:09.this one poorly framed bike Keenum because of the pressure. It goes up

:57:10. > :57:13.in the air and easily picked off. Getting his hand on that ball. Again

:57:14. > :57:19.Keane and Robinson with a big play. You can see what the Giants can do

:57:20. > :57:30.with this excellent field position. Two takeaway is in six games and two

:57:31. > :57:35.from the same guide today. At the 35, Manning, and that one almost

:57:36. > :57:44.picked off by Mark Barron. Incomplete. Another Alabama guy,

:57:45. > :57:51.much like Collins. Crossing route to Beckham. Manning does not seem Mark

:57:52. > :57:56.Barron dropping into the zone. Hoping to split the zone with their

:57:57. > :58:10.convert Mark Barron again, job opportunity for the rounds.

:58:11. > :58:28.Caught by the rookie free-agent out of Bowling Green, Roger Lewis. Hit

:58:29. > :58:32.by EJ Gaines. , could just two from ten for the Giants converting their

:58:33. > :58:42.third downs today. Cruz the receiver in now. At the bottom of your screen

:58:43. > :58:58.is Larry Donnell. Into the pocket and great catch by

:58:59. > :59:04.Beckham. They beat Alexander, inside the seven, 22 yards, Beckham gives

:59:05. > :59:10.them the 1st goal. And as he goes up with two hands this time, behind

:59:11. > :59:16.EJ Gaines and keeps his focus on the ball. And his focus on the field.

:59:17. > :59:21.Not over celebrating and risking another penalty. Tremendous play by

:59:22. > :59:38.Beckham. And good choice from Eli Manning. Cruz still out. Jennings.

:59:39. > :59:47.Across the five and nearly three. Westbrook 's and others. Alexander

:59:48. > :59:58.with a hit as well. Will Tye comes in for Larry Donnell.

:59:59. > :00:12.Jennings. Down near the 1-yard line. A lot of hands on him down there.

:00:13. > :00:23.Using the strength of their offensive line. Rough going, Rashad

:00:24. > :00:25.Jennings, ten carries, just 17 yards. Surprising on 2nd down.

:00:26. > :00:51.Putting pressure on this 3rd down. Jennings and touchdown. They've

:00:52. > :00:58.taken the lead. The Giants have scored 16 unanswered.

:00:59. > :01:04.A veteran quarterback saw the weakness of this defense. He shifted

:01:05. > :01:10.Jennings over to the left side, behind Ereck Flowers. This is what

:01:11. > :01:14.Elii is looking at, this area right here, he'll bring Jennings over and

:01:15. > :01:19.just have him break the tackle there of Ogletree and get in for the

:01:20. > :01:26.score. Jennings has missed half the season with injury. He gets his

:01:27. > :01:32.first touchdown of the season there. It is 17-10, Giants, with 17

:01:33. > :01:43.unanswered. 14 of New York's 17 have come off LA turnovers. S Collins set

:01:44. > :01:50.up the touchdown by Jennings for the Giants. So finally the Giants get it

:01:51. > :01:56.going in the fourth quarter. Collins is in the right place and

:01:57. > :02:06.gets it going. This is what defensives do all the time. This one

:02:07. > :02:10.is from Keenum. Colin is right, just like the last time. Right there to

:02:11. > :02:15.get it and doesn't have as good a run. He didn't let the rugby stuff

:02:16. > :02:19.go to his head. The fans have paid their money the

:02:20. > :02:24.see Beckham, of course and this is him finally stepping up. You see him

:02:25. > :02:29.go between two defenders and go up with two hands this time. Makes an

:02:30. > :02:35.incredible play for the New York Giants. They have a man's touchdown.

:02:36. > :02:36.Straight ahead blocking, the ball to the point of attack and Jennings

:02:37. > :02:48.fights through. The Giants take the lead 17-10.

:02:49. > :02:55.Roger is still with us. I am delighted to say. The sheriff!

:02:56. > :02:58.You can call him that. Ogletree, one that the fans play to see. How

:02:59. > :03:03.important is it that you have superstars that cut through like he

:03:04. > :03:11.does? Well, I think it is great for the NFL and great for players like

:03:12. > :03:14.him. They get their personalities on a bigger stage, a global stage. So

:03:15. > :03:19.we want to put our players in that position because they deserve it. We

:03:20. > :03:25.think they are the world's greatest athletes but also great people. I

:03:26. > :03:30.want to ask you why you are here. What is the future of the game? What

:03:31. > :03:34.happens next? Well, I don't have any big announcements for you today. But

:03:35. > :03:38.you know what we have seen here is every time we do something new and

:03:39. > :03:44.bring the fans another way to experience a game, it continues to

:03:45. > :03:47.grow. We frankly marvel at it. We go back and try and figure out what

:03:48. > :03:52.else we can do that would be exciting. Playing our first game at

:03:53. > :03:56.Twickenham a couple of weeks ago. These are all learning moments for

:03:57. > :04:04.us. We take that and figure out what is next. I expect we will see more

:04:05. > :04:08.games here. Terrific stuff. We appreciate you dropping by. We are

:04:09. > :04:13.coming up to a break, so you have to stay with us. You couldn't make this

:04:14. > :04:18.up. Talking about how the NFL... It is part of the unscripted bit. We

:04:19. > :04:24.have a commission... We're going to keep you here. Make sure he's stuck

:04:25. > :04:27.to that chair. In terms of a franchise verses regular games,

:04:28. > :04:32.there is a division in terms of the fanbase. Most want to see the NFL

:04:33. > :04:37.close up and personal. Are you looking to try things out, play

:04:38. > :04:40.things and work out what would be a sensible plan moving forward? Well,

:04:41. > :04:44.yes. I don't know if we know the answer yet. What we want to do is

:04:45. > :04:50.keep trying different alternatives and see the reactions to them. As we

:04:51. > :04:54.say, we are also working towards the NFL population, which is our 32

:04:55. > :04:58.clubs and trying to convince them there is a real opportunity here for

:04:59. > :05:01.us. And I think they are. They all come back saying I would like to go

:05:02. > :05:07.back again. That is a good problem to have, which we did not anticipate

:05:08. > :05:12.ten years ago, frankly. We talked off air about the fanbase in the UK.

:05:13. > :05:18.They are so literate with the amount of football they are being given. It

:05:19. > :05:23.surprises us in the sheer numbers and the demographics, in the fact

:05:24. > :05:32.they are young, there are families coming to the game. When I was at

:05:33. > :05:36.the pregame festivities I was surprised at how many families were

:05:37. > :05:40.coming to the football on a Sunday. Have you given thought to other

:05:41. > :05:46.venues outside of London or Britain? We have. We have discussed it many

:05:47. > :05:51.times before. We are looking to develop stadium alternatives in

:05:52. > :05:56.London. We want to create a position of strength here, a foundation and

:05:57. > :06:00.we can build from there. For us, it is about really being successful

:06:01. > :06:06.here in London. And then we will continue to build the fanbase beyond

:06:07. > :06:10.that. I was on the Tube heading out to the Arsenal soccer game and there

:06:11. > :06:15.were a couple from Munich who recognised me and wanted to talk.

:06:16. > :06:20.Instead of going to the States they came here to London. That is a

:06:21. > :06:25.terrific opportunity. How are you for selfies? I do a lot of those. I

:06:26. > :06:30.can't do them myself, though. You will probably have to do a few more,

:06:31. > :06:32.as there are 80,000 in the stadium. It is always great to be with my

:06:33. > :06:46.hero here. Tom Tom It is interesting to Spanola

:06:47. > :06:51.now. He dials up against a young quarterback and with a seven-point

:06:52. > :06:58.lead. Found it humorous when he talked about, it doesn't mean

:06:59. > :07:04.anything to me, the St Louis Rams then.

:07:05. > :07:20.Keen keep, 2nd 10. Finally powered Biharry son. The flag has been

:07:21. > :07:24.thrown at the 14. They will call holding on the Rams and very poor

:07:25. > :07:28.holding at. That 13 as it stands now.

:07:29. > :07:32.Back to the 10. Holding offense, number 73. That

:07:33. > :07:38.penalty is declined. Result of the play.

:07:39. > :07:49.Robinson struggling. Here is Snacks right here. The greatest nickname.

:07:50. > :07:55.350 lbs. Keenum seems to have a knack for running into sacks. There

:07:56. > :08:01.was holding. Called on the play regardless, but a good job by

:08:02. > :08:09.Snacks, picking up the sack. 3rd 22.

:08:10. > :08:14.They find Britt. Hit by Andrew Adams, but somehow Keenum gets it to

:08:15. > :08:19.go and he had room to move inside. When he catches the ball he's short

:08:20. > :08:25.of the 1st down. He knows that. Immediately heads straight up the

:08:26. > :08:39.field. Gets inside to pick up 1st down. Huge play. Something they

:08:40. > :08:44.needed to jump start this in the this half.

:08:45. > :08:49.Dropped by Kendricks. Coverage by Collins.

:08:50. > :08:56.He gets such great momentum from Britt, picking up the 1st down and

:08:57. > :09:01.then the whole momentum and air goes out of his huddle by that drop pass,

:09:02. > :09:21.by Kendricks. Pushed right there.

:09:22. > :09:28.May have been grabbed on a gain of six it was. The 42 of the Rams.

:09:29. > :09:34.And that will bring up another 3rd down. Rams have been very successful

:09:35. > :09:41.today. And their conversions on 3rd down. 3rd down.

:09:42. > :10:12.Keenum, Austin... Diving for the 1st down. Good effort by Austin, out to

:10:13. > :10:17.the 47. A 1st down for the Los Angeles Rams. This could have been a

:10:18. > :10:21.pick here by Kendricks, right there. There's that effort you talked

:10:22. > :10:27.about. Austin is only at five foot eight. He got real low on that time.

:10:28. > :10:42.A big play by Tavon Austin. 1st 10.

:10:43. > :10:48.Gurley, saw the flags. Devon Kennard at the 49-yard of the

:10:49. > :10:55.Giants. After a gain of about three. This one will come back. Sure will.

:10:56. > :11:00.Cruz has been busy today. Rams, as we said, one of the most heavily

:11:01. > :11:06.penalised teams. Fouls by both teams on the play.

:11:07. > :11:13.Holding offense, number 73. Holding, defense, number 96.

:11:14. > :11:17.Fouls offset. Play 1st down. I guess we shouldn't have questioned

:11:18. > :11:22.whether the Ram lazy be ready to play and they came out with a 10-0

:11:23. > :11:30.lead. They move from St Louis to southern California. They practiced

:11:31. > :11:36.and the training camp t UC Ervine. All they have had is move after

:11:37. > :11:40.move. Driving in LA. Not a lot of fun!

:11:41. > :11:43.No! A bit like London traffic. . Good

:11:44. > :11:51.morning Los Angeles... Holding on for dear life is Eli

:11:52. > :12:03.Apple. He drags him down. And that is eight catches now for

:12:04. > :12:11.Austin. Showing his versatility in space.

:12:12. > :12:19.We have seen this Rams team gamble a bit over the past couple of weeks.

:12:20. > :12:21.4th in about a foot. Ending up needed three. The field

:12:22. > :12:27.goal. In their territory now. End up going to Gurley. Wrapped up

:12:28. > :12:53.Bihar har. Biharry son. These offenses today have been in

:12:54. > :12:56.one word - offensive. Yes! Right.

:12:57. > :13:18.3rd 3. They go to Austin. Got the 1st down.

:13:19. > :13:31.Nice play, Robinson brings him down. They move the chain. That was a fine

:13:32. > :13:33.tackle by Robinson. They have been focussing on getting Tavon Austin

:13:34. > :13:40.more involved here in the second half. Especially in this drive. He's

:13:41. > :13:45.paid off turning it into a 1st down. Austin has nine catches, 52 yards, a

:13:46. > :13:52.couple of runs as well. Gurley is back in. His 1st 10.

:13:53. > :13:57.. Going deep and he's got quick.

:13:58. > :14:03.This time the jump and the coverage by Apple. This time the jump and

:14:04. > :14:10.really miss timed his jump on the play as well.

:14:11. > :14:17.The add justment to the -- adjustment to the ball wasn't there.

:14:18. > :14:23.Quick had position on Apple. The ball was thrown out in front.

:14:24. > :14:37.The wind has noticeably picked up here in this forth quarter. The Rams

:14:38. > :14:46.are going into the wind. Intercepted. A pick in the end zone.

:14:47. > :14:51.Back to the 20. And a flag has been thrown. All

:14:52. > :14:56.indications are it is against the Rams.

:14:57. > :15:02.Holding offense. Number 73. Penalty is the cry. Interception by

:15:03. > :15:09.New York. The Giants with an end zone

:15:10. > :15:11.interception right here. By Collins, another interception, which sets

:15:12. > :15:20.down a touchdown. It is funny who you meet by the

:15:21. > :15:25.field. Adam Richmond. I know you have been up there with your other

:15:26. > :15:29.heroes, the Spurs players. To be here it is incredible. It is

:15:30. > :15:35.amazing. We always hear in the States that you guys hate our

:15:36. > :15:41.football and we hate and you hate the fact we call it soccer.

:15:42. > :15:45.To see Twickenham. The whole of British rugby. There are people with

:15:46. > :15:57.Dolphins' Jerseys right there. It is awesome. As a die-hard Tottenham

:15:58. > :16:01.support it breaks my game that opt Oxlaaide lain is such -chamber a

:16:02. > :16:14.nice guy. And how is Harry Kane? He predicted

:16:15. > :16:19.the Super Bowl, he has dogs named Wilson and Brady, he is an expert.

:16:20. > :16:27.And he wants to go and play in the NFL. A while yet with Spurs. We need

:16:28. > :16:31.you in the final third, if the match against Bournemouth didn't show you

:16:32. > :16:34.I'm here to tell you. It will be heaven for you when NFL comes to

:16:35. > :16:40.White Hart Lane? G-Mac it is remarkable and something with these

:16:41. > :16:43.events here, singing the Cockrell next to the NFL, I was part of the

:16:44. > :16:52.superkids pro club, it was one of the early fan societies, I have my

:16:53. > :16:55.lilywhite one Hotspur membership and when the Dolphins play at White Hart

:16:56. > :17:04.Lane I will be there falling into my grave ready to die. Adam, thank you.

:17:05. > :17:14.Thank you, go Dolphins! COMMENTATOR: Case Keenum struggling today. The

:17:15. > :17:23.last two picks have been strictly off him. Poor decisions. Jennings

:17:24. > :17:27.picks up two. Rodgers-Cromartie has 25 career interceptions now after

:17:28. > :17:35.that one. As you watch him on this play he is reading this ball. He

:17:36. > :17:39.have a pass interference against Baltimore last week. Questionable

:17:40. > :17:46.call. Comes back with the end zone interception today. Harris in the

:17:47. > :17:54.slot. Leaving the game injured late in the first half. Jennings again.

:17:55. > :18:02.Block in there. They tried to carve out a couple again. Ogletree stops.

:18:03. > :18:06.Watch as Rodgers-Cromartie cuts in front of Austin. He was watching

:18:07. > :18:14.that ball the whole way. Waiting for it to come down. As the Rams call

:18:15. > :18:18.their first timer. How will they use the Time else? With 3:10 left they

:18:19. > :18:23.have to use them especially with third-down coming up and the Giants

:18:24. > :18:33.really struggling to convert their third downs today. The Giants will

:18:34. > :18:40.stay with the ball and the Rams down a tie now. Ben McAdoo. Taking place

:18:41. > :18:45.from someone -- taking the place of someone like Tom Coughlin amazing

:18:46. > :18:54.regardless of the reason record. Tremendous career as a head coach in

:18:55. > :19:05.the NFL. Not just with the Giants. Perkins in. Manning. Was it scooped

:19:06. > :19:15.in by Odell Beckham? No, they say it was on the grass. Incomplete. He has

:19:16. > :19:23.got his man beaten. Good call by the officials. They ruled on this

:19:24. > :19:28.immediately and for good reason. That incompletion stops the club.

:19:29. > :19:33.The Rams should get good field position again but can they do

:19:34. > :19:47.anything with it. Brad Wing with wind at his back. Good long snap.

:19:48. > :19:54.Clicking it away from Tavon Austin. 25-yard line. Couple of time-outs,

:19:55. > :20:01.down by seven, the Rams get it. Lots of you getting in touch on social

:20:02. > :20:04.media, Justin asking, my annual NFL jersey counts at half-time and then

:20:05. > :20:10.it is missing, the Browns and the Bills. Work on that, fans. Where do

:20:11. > :20:14.you stand on that, seeing jerseys from the different teams at one

:20:15. > :20:18.match? I like it because you would never see that at the states. Going

:20:19. > :20:27.out there and seeing everything represented it is really cool as a

:20:28. > :20:31.player. Software it seemed like a Super Bowl atmosphere. A lot of

:20:32. > :20:34.Giants and Rams fans that some of these people are just football fans

:20:35. > :20:40.and they want to see an American football game being played. When I

:20:41. > :20:43.was a kid and I can remember watching my first NFL championship

:20:44. > :20:46.game on TV, with my grandfather and uncle and if they had wearing a

:20:47. > :20:51.players jersey they would have wondered what planet therefrom, and

:20:52. > :20:54.I still have this belief you are not allowed to wear the jersey with a

:20:55. > :21:05.player younger than you are. Fair point. I could just about have JPP.

:21:06. > :21:11.When did that start changing? 25 years ago. Sometime in the 80s. I

:21:12. > :21:17.can remember doing that match before the Giants came in 2007 when you

:21:18. > :21:23.were both playing and there was somebody with a carpenter jersey

:21:24. > :21:28.sitting in front of our position and I said that was old school. He was

:21:29. > :21:35.only ten years out of the league. Great one from Stewart, do you think

:21:36. > :21:41.Eli has another Super Bowl in him? He has at least five or six more

:21:42. > :21:49.years of quality footballer. One of those five years he will have a

:21:50. > :21:58.chance. Lets see if London will be as lucky for him this year as it was

:21:59. > :22:04.in 2007. COMMENTATOR: Case Keenum, first and ten.

:22:05. > :22:18.Underneath the goes. And it is to the 36. Grout by the tight end,

:22:19. > :22:28.Kendricks, tackled by Casillas. 11 yards.

:22:29. > :22:43.Case Keenum, first and ten. Incomplete. We haven't talked about

:22:44. > :22:49.him much tonight, Romeo Okwara. Keenum running out of the pocket,

:22:50. > :22:54.speed really surprised them. I think he thought he had more time than he

:22:55. > :23:01.had. The pressure on him to get rid of that ball. They have not scored

:23:02. > :23:10.their last ten consecutive possessions.

:23:11. > :23:21.The Giants in the nickel, purely an outside. Keenan Robinson trying to

:23:22. > :23:30.real women. The completion takes them to the 41. That is a heck of a

:23:31. > :23:38.catch, Robinson around his ankles. It bobbled four times.

:23:39. > :23:44.Out of reach of brine quick with Rodgers-Cromartie watching. They

:23:45. > :23:49.will have to go for it on 4th down with just two time-outs. Another

:23:50. > :23:54.poor throw by Keenum. I'm not sure with a catch that would have been

:23:55. > :23:55.good enough for 1st down. Momentum would have carried him out of

:23:56. > :24:06.bounds. You have to look for Tavon Austin.

:24:07. > :24:14.He has been their most productive receiver. In the nickel, secondary,

:24:15. > :24:22.and it looked like Rob Havenstein jump. ., offense number 79, 5-yard

:24:23. > :24:31.penalty. You can tell the Giants fans are making some noise. Rob

:24:32. > :24:35.Havenstein way offsides. Staring right at Jason Pierre-Paul of

:24:36. > :24:40.course. And Olivier Vernon, he has had a tough time dealing with them.

:24:41. > :24:45.They are going back and forth and man, that is a terrific pair that

:24:46. > :24:52.Spagnuolo can handle. His secondary has picked off three and all have

:24:53. > :24:56.been important today. The Giants do have three sacks today. They only

:24:57. > :25:21.have six in the previous six games. STUDIO: This is the second

:25:22. > :25:28.international series game this season, the third one at Wenbo

:25:29. > :25:31.Stadium next weekend. On air PM, the clocks go back remember. Redskins

:25:32. > :25:57.against Bengals. Initially the lead for the Rams, by

:25:58. > :26:04.ten points. Two minutes left. Coming in, bad snap by the center. Caught.

:26:05. > :26:19.Quick staggering for the 1st down. STUDIO: Lots of you getting in

:26:20. > :26:25.touch, lots of you suggesting it might be time to give Zhirkov try.

:26:26. > :26:35.The Rams rookie quarterback. Number one overall pick in the college

:26:36. > :26:38.draft. As we said at the top of the show, many people thought he would

:26:39. > :26:44.be NFL ready. We haven't seen him yet. This would been a hell of a

:26:45. > :26:48.game to throw him into. Pramac it is too you have to go with the guy who

:26:49. > :26:53.has been running the offense but if you start playing well they might

:26:54. > :26:59.change. If he does not turn this around we could see him sooner

:27:00. > :27:03.rather than later. You do not want to put a rookie who hasn't played

:27:04. > :27:07.all season into a game necessarily. The Giants coming at you the way

:27:08. > :27:11.they are. That is a bad situation to go into it. And a real test for a

:27:12. > :27:19.quarterback who hasn't played a single down. Case Keenum has

:27:20. > :27:22.struggled today. How long will it be before they bring Jarrod Coffin. Or

:27:23. > :27:26.do they just want to leave him on the bench learning. Quite frankly he

:27:27. > :27:33.has played well this season. Jarrod Goff I think what the Rams like to

:27:34. > :27:41.do is they like Lester said. They let Aaron Donald said. I think he

:27:42. > :27:53.will be a much better quote reference. You get someone in there

:27:54. > :27:57.and if you draft him how he has to play. Not everybody has a good

:27:58. > :28:04.situation. You see more of it now the bonuses and contracts are more

:28:05. > :28:12.control. For the rookies. If you pay him 50 million -- $15 million a year

:28:13. > :28:15.you have to put him in sooner or later. Like with Stafford. Having

:28:16. > :28:21.said that new territory for LA, Newmarket. It is an interesting

:28:22. > :28:29.thing if you believe in the showbiz because this is not a showbiz team.

:28:30. > :28:51.Not at the moment! COMMENTATOR: The Giants have had bead on him. Losing

:28:52. > :28:58.his balance. Coming in. Fearful. On the money to Quick. We talked about

:28:59. > :29:02.a couple of poor throws Keenum has had in the second half. Last two

:29:03. > :29:15.throws under pressure but absolutely spectacular.

:29:16. > :29:17.In front of Adams, behind the corner, great thread. Back-to-back

:29:18. > :29:39.for Case Keenum. Moves up well. Incomplete for Brit.

:29:40. > :29:45.I think he had this ball in his hands. Andrew Adams covering in the

:29:46. > :29:49.secondary along with Rodgers-Cromartie. Rodgers-Cromartie

:29:50. > :29:50.will come here, he times it perfectly and knocks it out of his

:29:51. > :30:04.hands. And the top of the screen he checks

:30:05. > :30:15.in, the rookies six round pick. 2nd in, the rookies six round pick. 2nd

:30:16. > :30:22.10, Kendricks the tight end brought down by Leon Hall. Good

:30:23. > :30:27.pressure again this time, Olivier Vernon. Forcing Keenum to throw that

:30:28. > :30:41.one quickly. Cunningham, back to the 1st. Brought

:30:42. > :31:00.down. One time out Rams.

:31:01. > :31:08.1st 10 and incomplete. Looking for receiver Bradley Marquez. Coverage

:31:09. > :31:10.on the playle. I don't think Marquez was expecting

:31:11. > :31:19.this pass. Appears to be winded.

:31:20. > :31:38.You can see the contact down the field that the Giants get away with.

:31:39. > :31:51.Britt still on the sidelines after that long pass a couple of plays

:31:52. > :31:56.ago. So, we're seeing Michael Thomas, who was without a catch this

:31:57. > :31:59.season and Bradley Marquez, who has only two, and they were the targets

:32:00. > :32:17.on the last two pass plays. Britt is in, with Austin, Marquez,

:32:18. > :32:23.the tight end and Quick. Time out, New York.

:32:24. > :32:56.First charge time out New York. Obviously winded the defensive line

:32:57. > :33:01.and the second. We saw clem troubles. Rams have struggled in the

:33:02. > :33:08.red zone this year. That is where they find themselves now, with the

:33:09. > :33:15.3rd 106789 one time out. 50 seconds in the fourth.

:33:16. > :33:32.Britt to the top of your screen, Quick to the bottom.

:33:33. > :33:42.It's clem Interception. That may have slammed the door. Keenum has

:33:43. > :33:51.thrown his fourth hit today. Total communication. You saw a signal

:33:52. > :34:04.given to Quick. The ball is thrown to the one-on-one coverage. Quick

:34:05. > :34:09.decides not to run the fly Pat it is he could have called for a quick

:34:10. > :34:17.catch on this ball. And again the Rams struggling in the red zone that

:34:18. > :34:30.time. And the defense with terrific plays

:34:31. > :34:38.from the secondary and the Rams will let the clock tick and not call a

:34:39. > :34:46.time out. We have one left. The last three possessions for the Rams.

:34:47. > :34:55.Three New York Giants interceptions. For a team which had two. How about

:34:56. > :34:59.the Rams? They have lost three straight after winning three

:35:00. > :35:09.straight. And the Giants have won their second

:35:10. > :35:10.consecutive. We can go to 4 3 with the defense playing huge dividends

:35:11. > :35:19.today. That is what we love about the NFL,

:35:20. > :35:23.a game can go a lot of different ways, but somehow it can end up

:35:24. > :35:31.being incredibly close at the end. It was a fantastic finish. Almost

:35:32. > :35:35.feel sorry for Keenum with the throw. He did a couple of things

:35:36. > :35:41.well to get them into that position. Looked like a lack of communication.

:35:42. > :35:45.Saw serve row coverage and the blitz on the same -- zero coverage and the

:35:46. > :35:51.blitz on the same page. He has not lived up to the hype. He only has

:35:52. > :35:55.one route, which is vertical. The intermediate routes he does not seem

:35:56. > :36:00.tight on. A tough day at the office for Case Keenum. Let's look at the

:36:01. > :36:05.stats. Keenum ending the game with that pick.

:36:06. > :36:10.Four turnovers for the Rams. That is the tail of the game. 17-10, the

:36:11. > :36:18.final. Passing odds nothing much having for Eli Manning and the

:36:19. > :36:23.Giants. 233 total yards, yet the turnovers were instrumental. Why the

:36:24. > :36:25.Giants ended up winning that. It started with a turnover on the

:36:26. > :36:34.Giants' side. We have looked at this one before.

:36:35. > :36:39.You see Tavon Austin coming across. When the tight end comes underneath

:36:40. > :36:43.him, the linebacker is up. It was the interception.

:36:44. > :36:47.Definitely. Definitely the interception made. You know you

:36:48. > :36:52.cannot turn the ball over and you cannot turn it over in a red zone.

:36:53. > :36:57.That is what was crucial. A horrendous start for the New York

:36:58. > :37:01.Giants. Great start for the Rams, early doors, given their offense has

:37:02. > :37:06.been spluttering allot. Against the Lions they started to get things in

:37:07. > :37:10.the group. We thought we would see more of the same, but it was not to

:37:11. > :37:14.be. And you look at the Giants prior to this game, 14 points from

:37:15. > :37:25.turnovers n this one ten points from turnovers in their previous six

:37:26. > :37:34.games. You know The coach, you saw what happened today. Came out here

:37:35. > :37:39.to London, got their mo Joe back. They claim back the defense the way

:37:40. > :37:46.they are supposed to be. And you played under Spags for a long time.

:37:47. > :37:54.It is difficult to go back and recreate your form of glory. Tried

:37:55. > :38:00.to recreate that by bringing in Snacks. They played the way they

:38:01. > :38:02.were supposed to be. Collins was a significant player. What a great day

:38:03. > :38:12.for him. They were playing him a lot deep.

:38:13. > :38:16.And only giving him half the field. And there came the ball. They did

:38:17. > :38:22.not attack him much one on one. When the ball is in the air he came to

:38:23. > :38:26.it. Put your guy to a position where he can play plays. He's looking like

:38:27. > :38:30.Sir Collins today. That one, that di agram of the

:38:31. > :38:36.dotted lines look the one they gave me when they told me how to get to

:38:37. > :38:41.Twickenham from the station. A significant pick for him. Two big

:38:42. > :38:47.turnovers for him in particularly one of the strongest performances on

:38:48. > :38:49.this Giants' defense. And I am delighted to say that Collins is

:38:50. > :38:58.pitchside chatting to Caroline now. He's had to run off. Can we go live

:38:59. > :39:02.to Eli Manning. Sorry to interrupt. I know you are having a photo. If

:39:03. > :39:06.you can wait with us. He's having a chat with the coach and then

:39:07. > :39:12.hopefully. This is live TV at its best. Back to you and then I will

:39:13. > :39:20.shout, I'll shout... I like how she has the New York

:39:21. > :39:24.Giants part of her scarf there. A difficult game for him. What do

:39:25. > :39:28.you make of his performance? It has been a difficult day for the offense

:39:29. > :39:32.in General. You have to give credit to the defense, they blanketed those

:39:33. > :39:37.receivers, stuffed the run. Got pressure, not so much as anticipated

:39:38. > :39:43.on Eli. You have to give it to the Rams' defense. It makes everybody

:39:44. > :39:48.look good and the Giants could not run the ball. The only good run was

:39:49. > :39:51.for the touchdown when they did... So they took short stuff the whole

:39:52. > :39:57.game. They did not turn it over. That is the important thing.

:39:58. > :40:04.Let's look at the touchdown. This was the pick. The turnover that set

:40:05. > :40:10.it up and as we said, the New York Giants, a big day for Collins and it

:40:11. > :40:14.was Rashad Jennings running it in. We saw the with the stats, the

:40:15. > :40:18.yardage, at no point could they get the running game going. In the red

:40:19. > :40:23.zone he punches it in and it is crucial. It is hard to score because

:40:24. > :40:27.you have limited space. When you can run the ball successfully in

:40:28. > :40:32.there... You saw how spread out they were in the line. St Louis is

:40:33. > :40:35.thinking there's no way they will run the ball on us in this

:40:36. > :40:41.situation. It was the best thing they could do. You saw the lift they

:40:42. > :40:47.had there. You guys jumped up. I think all line play is like that.

:40:48. > :40:48.Defensive line. For an offensive line when you push that line off,

:40:49. > :41:03.that is what you want. I don't know what to say. Everybody

:41:04. > :41:07.is exhausted. How exhausted were you on the pick six that changed this

:41:08. > :41:16.game even in the first half? Exhausted. Got heavy. I had to get

:41:17. > :41:19.back on the field and do my thing. How many yards do you think you

:41:20. > :41:23.covered sideline to sideline when you picked the ball? I went from

:41:24. > :41:30.this way back to over there. Got to be about 100 yards. Do you want to

:41:31. > :41:41.know how many? 84. Take us through the play.

:41:42. > :41:48.I think it was, I got two men, two deep and using my eyes, missed the

:41:49. > :41:52.ball and then when I caught the ball, looked down field. When I

:41:53. > :41:55.looked down field I saw a lot of dark blue. All my white was to the

:41:56. > :42:00.left. So I went back to the left and ran down from there. You guys came

:42:01. > :42:04.into this league, last with take aways, you come away with four

:42:05. > :42:08.picks. Where is this defense? How good can it be? It can be great.

:42:09. > :42:13.That is our expectations. We try and get to the top ten. That is what

:42:14. > :42:19.we're looking for. Get some rest, my friend. Will do. He will cherish

:42:20. > :42:22.that touchdown. It is winning and winning with your defense. That is

:42:23. > :42:28.the key. I love the way he analysed that. That play he analysed

:42:29. > :42:33.brilliantly. A big day for him. And this guy has been the best play on

:42:34. > :42:39.their defense all season. Outside of Rashad Jennings, played well today.

:42:40. > :42:42.Came up big for the Giants. The Giants in a decent position. Decent

:42:43. > :42:47.position and they have got momentum winning here. We have a feast of NFL

:42:48. > :42:52.action coming up in the next seven days.

:42:53. > :42:59.It is here on Tuesday with all the action of this week's game.

:43:00. > :43:05.Friday is the NFL Show. The weekend games will be previewed. And then

:43:06. > :43:19.Washington verses Cincinnati. Many thanks indeed to Jason OC and

:43:20. > :43:25.Mike. Congratulations to the New York Giants A big win for them. Tune

:43:26. > :43:26.in next week for the Redskins and the Bengals live at Wembley Stadium.

:43:27. > :43:35.Goodbye for now. See you then.
