New York Giants | 4 RED HOT TAKES For The 2025 NFL Season
[Music] [Music] what up everybody it is your boy Bad Dog back with another New York Giants video as always appreciate you clicking on the video do me a favor hit the thumbs up it helps me out don’t forget to subscribe and ring the bell so you get all the well you’re supposed to get all the notifications uh that I do a video or go live a lot more videos coming on this channel but today I want to talk about my four hot takes for the New York Giants and I always love doing hot takes because hot takes are takes that are you know they’re not likely to happen but I can’t wait for people to come back to this video and go “Oh bad dog that aged like milk.” Because of course I have a lot of takes that age like milk i also have believe it or not takes that age like fine wine like I have at 50 years old i’m just playing around but let’s talk about these hot takes uh for a second my first hot take about the New York Giants and I’ve talked about this on Giants Collective uh my first hot take uh is Russell Wilson if Russell Wilson stays healthy and plays the entire season I’m not talking about you know getting sat uh by you know for Jackson Dart here uh in week 14 or whatever if he plays all 17 games he’s going to throw for more than 30 touchdowns i just have a feeling the Giants wide receiving core is pretty good uh you got Malik Neighbors you got Darius Sllayton you got Wu Juanell Robinson who had 93 catches you got Theo Johnson who I believe has a lot of talent russell Wilson is a guy that throws the ball deep he’s not afraid to take shots and I just feel like this offense is going to be better uh than it’s been the last six years is it going to be an elite offense absolutely not i’m not saying that one bit but I do believe Russell Wilson has a lot of weapons at his disposal he’s a cerebral quarterback he has a ton of confidence and I truly believe that Russell Wilson can easily throw for 30 touchdowns that’s not even two touchdowns a game on average there’s no reason to think that the man can’t throw for 30 touchdowns this year uh if he is healthy and plays all 17 games and that’s my first hot take russell Wilson 30 plus passing touchdowns for the New York Giants hot take number two Darius Sllayton darius Sllayton’s careerhigh in receiving yards I believe is 770 he’s had a couple years where he’s had over 700 receiving yards his rookie season with Daniel Jones it looked like they had a really good report he had eight receiving touchdowns and Darius Sllayton in my opinion is one of the most underrated perhaps most underappreciated New York Giants out there and I’ll be honest even myself I’ve probably underappreciated or taken Darius Sllayton for granted i know he’s had some drop problems but the man is a consmate professional he is a team first guy he’s taken pay cuts to stay with the New York Giants he’s dealt with a lot of crap and let’s face it Russell Wilson is going to be the best quarterback that this man has had throwing him the football his entire career and with Malik Neighbors commanding a ton of attention on the other side Darius Sllayton hot take here 1,000 yards receiving that’s right i feel like Darius Sllayton has been underutilized as a deep threat he can go over the middle he can run all kinds of different routes and again a lot of people forget that coming out of Auburn he ran a 43940 when Tyrod Taylor was throwing the football I believe it was 2023 he had a lot of deep receptions for touchdowns especially against Eagles he had a couple big plays against the Eagles i see a lot more big plays for Darius Sllayton this year and I feel like Darius Sllayton is going to have a career season 1,000 receiving yards for Darius Sllayton is hot take number two and again all these hot takes are assuming that the guys play all 17 games and that they’re not injured okay so if he you know god forbid something happens to Russ or to Darius Sllayton I mean obviously that’s not going to happen but everything that I’m talking about here is if you know they stay healthy so Darius Sllayton I feel is going to have a monster season i feel it’s about time he’s going to have a breakout year i feel like he’s going to be overlooked by a lot of people like I said especially Malik Neighbors commanding that attention and guys like Juan Delale Robinson guys like Theo Johnson i just feel like Daryl Sllayton’s going to get a lot of one-on-one matchups i feel he can win those matchups and I feel like Russell Wilson is a guy that can take advantage of those one-on-one matchups darius Sllayton’s going to have a thousand yards receiving and that’s hot take number two hot take number three and this is a big one and I know that people are gonna hate on it but the New York Giants are going to finish ahead of the Dallas Cowboys in the NFC East that’s right i’m saying it right now the Giants are going to finish ahead of the Cowboys does that mean we finish second in the division the Cowboys finish third does that mean we finish third and the Cowboys finish fourth the Giants are going to finish ahead of the Cowboys i’m sorry maybe I’m crazy i probably am a little bit crazy but this is a huge hot take for me i feel like Dallas kind of coming back to the pack a little bit i don’t feel like they’re as good as they’ve been in previous years i feel like the Giants are a lot better than they’ve been in previous years and I know we have a very tough schedule but you know what dallas has a tough schedule too it’s not like they don’t play a lot of the same teams that we do they play the AFC West they play the NFC North they also have a very tough division they get to play the Eagles they get to play the Commanders now I know they can say that we’re better they’re better than the Giants they probably are better than us uh in some aspects but I feel that we’re better than them in some aspects and I do feel like the Giants are going to beat the Cowboys this season i’m not saying we’re going to sweep them but they’re not sweeping us and I really truly believe that the Giants are going to get stronger as the year progresses because our season starts off very tough and it gets a little bit easier i feel like Dallas is going to regress as the season goes along i feel like our offense is a lot better than it’s been i feel like our defense is going to be special and because of everything that’s combined here I feel like the Giants have such low expectations meanwhile the Cowboys always have high expectations and I just feel like this is the year that the Dallas Cowboys finally you know everything comes to a fruition for them and they just end up behind the New York Giants i feel like we’re going in complete opposite directions and the New York Giants are going to finish ahead of the Cowboys in the NFC East that’s right i’m saying it right now house so like I said you can come back oh it’s like milk maybe it will but these are hot takes baby that’s what hot takes are made to do hot take number four the New York Giants will lead the league in sacks uh this season in the NFL the Giants were leading the league in sacks for a few weeks at the beginning of the year last year without the elite defense that they have this year at least on paper you look at the New York Giants defense and it is scary this secondary is vastly improved you expect Juke Phillips to take a step forward you expect Tyler Nuben to take a step forward you add Javon Holland one of the best free agent safeties on the market but he was the best free agent safety on the market you’ve improved your uh offense or I’m sorry you improved your secondary so much and you also added Paul Adibbo to the other side of Deontay Banks you just think the New York Giants secondary is so much better than it was last year and then you look at the front seven you look at a guy like Brian Burns who played you know banged up all last year he was monumental uh he had a great season he started off slow he had a great season dexter Lawrence missed five games kayon Thibido missed five games bobby O’ Carrick is a great linebacker mike McFad take a step forward the Giants are top 10 in league in sacks last year with injuries with a bad secondary and and um they’re still up there without a team that blitzes a lot the secondary is going to make the quarterback hold on to the ball longer the front seven now adds Abdul Carter the best player in the draft this season he is special his speed his agility his pass rush moves it is going to be insane to watch a New York Giants defense you also had a Darius Alexander who could play next to Dexter Lawrence if these guys are healthy there’s no reason to think that they can’t lead the league in sacks cuz who are you going to double team are you going to double team Dex and leave one-on-one with Abdul Carter you’re going to double team Abdul Carter you going to leave Kavon Diba one-on-one you going to leave Brian Burns one-on-one you can move Abdul Carter all over the field he can come from any freaking direction this Giants defense with the addition of the secondary help that’s going to make the quarterback hold on to the ball a little bit longer and a pass rush on paper that is just absolutely insane there is no reason to believe that the New York Giants can’t lead the league in sacks i believe they’re going to lead the league in sacks and listen the Giants are going to be a lot better than people want to give them credit for like I said this is June i feel good talk to me in October maybe a totally different scenario however these are my four hot takes uh for the New York Giants in the 2025 season let me know what you think in the comments section below if you guys have a hot take put it in the section below i’d love to hear your hot takes again hot takes are things that are not likely to happen but very well could happen remember that these are not these are long shots remember what a hot take is before you kill me for these takes anyway that’s all I got in this video as always appreciate you watching like subscribe ring the bell i’ll see you for game seven of the NBA Finals tonight and we’ll see you in the next one by Disney I’m out peace

Baddog is a passionate fan who was born, and raised in the state of New York! I am A HUGE sports fan.
Baddog has a very strong, passionate, roller coaster ride of emotions personality which can sometimes lead to rant and rage videos, about his favorite teams, which many seem to enjoy. This channel is that of a fan, and nothing else.
My videos are done from that of my own perspective and views as a fan. I am a HUGE New York Yankees, New York Giants, & New York Knicks fan.
I do video, and live stream content covering The New York Yankees, New York Giants and Los Angeles Lakers, which has also lead to the nickname “LakerDog”.
You may ask yourself, “If Baddog is a Knicks fan, why does he do Los Angeles Laker content?”
The Reason for this is because I have a family, and because of my work, and gym schedule, streaming all of The Knicks games would be impossible, so I began covering The Lakers in late 2018, because most of their games are played at 9:00PM EST, or later.
Hopefully you guys & gals will find my content enjoyable and will continue to come back for future content!

Hi
I'm a simple man. I see a Baddog video on the Giants or Yankees , I click it.
Decided to predict that this team will go 0-17. They can’t dissapoint me if I have no expectations, right?
Baddog!!! You da man
Skattebo gets 12 TD's and 1,000 yards
Baddog, I came back last night a few times looking for your 24 hour stream. I had watched for a while earlier in the day, I put in the search "baddog 24hr stream" and a few different variations on that title and nothing. I went into my own history to find it and nothing. I went to your channel and there was nothing. I did that on a few different devices. So, idk if something is messed up on my end or what but I wish I could have been there with you around midnight and after. Anyhow, I thought I'd mention it, keep up the good work brother.
i can see potential for all of these, but the sacks one i feel is a lot more than a "Hot Take", it's a relatively high probability take. now do i ACTUALLY feel like you'll hit on all 4? most likely not, but if our offense looks fairly good with halfway decent QB play (very plausible), we lead the league in sacks, and we finish ahead of the cowboys, i'll consider this a hell of a season.
The Giants finish ahead of Dallas? With our schedule, I hope you’re right!
I mean I hope the cowboys dont finish behind the giants but its possible haha. Maybe Washingtons a better benchmark? 😅
What happened to the 24 hour stream?
I believe!!!!!
Giants have probably the hardest schedule I've ever seen. It's almost criminal
If AT goes down again the 1st 3 are NOT TAKES.
As long as our Receivers and O-Line stays healthy, Wilson for around 30 TD's isn't that much of a stretch.. I think Slayton can have a good year as well.. I still think we'll finish 4th in the Division, and as much as I'd think we should lead the league in Sacks (For as much Stock as we've put in that Defense), it also wouldn't shock me if our Defense was just GOOD and not Great since it always seems to disappoint, IMO.
Baddog you forgot Darius Slayton rookie year Eli Manning was the starting quarterback.
Why was that a joke? 50? You literally look 35 dude!
I wanna have faith bad dog but everytime I see saquon in that Philly jersey the only way I can forgive Joe for what he did is if he wins the superbowl or atleast makes it
I Pray You're Right!!
