The Giants D played a gritty hard game last night. One area where the Pats had success was death by a thousand cuts in short passes in perfect stride to RBs (13 times for 95 yards and seemingly countless first downs).it seems like over the years whether it was Faulk Vereen or White back there it has been a core piece of their third down game that stifles opponents.
LBs
Ogletree, Mayo, and Stupar trying to cover a more elusive RB...not good for us. Add some shoddy tackling and it's easy pickings.
I'm more frustrated by how badly our D reacts to a screen. We have zero recognition. It seems to work every time. Maybe it's when you have to work so hard to get any pressure, you're more susceptible. Apparently last night we had 3 sacks, but on only 8 pressures.
