He explains the Giants’ downfall in settling for field goals instead of touchdowns and critiques Brian Dable’s decision to kick a field goal from the 3-yard line.

Hoffman critiques the lack of business acumen in handling NIL deals, drawing attention to potential future issues for both players and institutions. Player Statistics and Relevant Analysis Daniel Jones (Giants): Jones completed 29 of 40 passes for 281 yards, showing strong efficiency but was limited to field goals instead of touchdowns. His lone interception came on a last-play Hail Mary, which Seidenberg dismisses as a non-critical error. Dak Prescott (Cowboys): Prescott’s 22 of 27 passes for 221 yards and two touchdowns underscore his precision and effectiveness, especially in capitalizing on scoring opportunities. His connection with Rico Dowdle (15-yard TD) and CeeDee Lamb (55-yard TD) proved decisive in the Cowboys’ victory. Brandon Aubrey (Cowboys): Aubrey made two field goals, missing a late attempt that could have sealed the game earlier, yet his role in converting field goals added crucial points. Team Statistics and Insights Giants’ Team Stats: The Giants outgained the Cowboys in yardage (303 vs. 293) and time of possession (35 minutes vs. 24 minutes), while also leading in first downs (16 vs. 14). Despite these statistical wins, their failure to convert key red zone opportunities into touchdowns proved to be the game’s decisive factor. Penalties also played a role, with the Cowboys committing 11 penalties for 89 yards, creating disruption but ultimately not altering the outcome. Cowboys’ Team Stats: Despite fewer yards and less possession, Dallas' ability to score touchdowns, particularly a 15-yard TD by Rico Dowdle and a 55-yard TD by CeeDee Lamb, cemented their lead. The Giants’ inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities allowed the Cowboys to escape with a victory, albeit with some missteps in clock management. Speaker’s Names and Timestamps Scott Seidenberg (0:37 - 10:09): Seidenberg analyzes the Cowboys’ win, the Giants’ failures, and how the Giants’ statistical superiority did not translate into a victory due to poor red zone efficiency.
