Defense: B
The Giants defense has not been an utter disaster. Its bend-not-break defense has limited the opposition to scoring 32 points. Pass rush has been an annual complaint. Too many times the Giants fail to apply pressure on the offensive line and quarterback leading to disappointment. Two sacks is not good enough. Too many completed third-down conversions. Not enough tackles behind the line of scrimmage.
To the Giants’ credit, Steve Spagnuolo has been the architect behind a stable secondary that has prevented large gain. Although interceptions are not frequent, the defense has allowed whatever offense the giants have been able to muster to be sufficient to win games.
