The Giants are playing a style that I have watched New England play for years. The Patriots want you to have to work all the way done the field and make you at some point make a mistake. They play fundamentally sound and take advantage when the mistake is made.
Except for the end, when we broke, we kept everything in front and made the Skins work. Timely blitzes and some big plays made the difference. We don’t have the players yet but we can expect more of this style. The d has been competitive in most games. I know it is frustrating because of so many Giant teams that had the pass rush—we still do need a big rusher—but this d keeps us in games against some very good teams.
I think Graham has done a great job.
Going from absolute crap to mediocre is a step I'll take. Hopefully the offense can get there at some point.

We don’t have the players yet and still get beat, but the style overall is keeping us in games. Not saying it is something to be confident against yet. However, what I don’t see really anymore is blown coverages and receivers running free. Look at all the big plays or touchdowns—the d was right there.
We don’t have a pass rusher, what do you want? You say the same thing each week, don’t really know what the point is. This is likely as good as it’s getting this year.

I tend to agree. The defense has zero rush and sketchy cover guys outside of Bradberry. His hands are tied schematically.
If we start converting in the red zone, we may see a few more winners sooner than later.
