With seven starters returning to the same scheme under the same coordinator, the Giants’ defense was supposed to take a step forward in 2023 — maybe even two steps, if the splashy additions at middle linebacker and cornerback paid immediate dividends.
More than 53 percent of opponents’ drives have resulted in a score — a number that is better than only three other teams. The Giants have been built like the other fancy houses in the neighborhood — heavily invested up front — but closer inspection reveals a crack in the foundation. It hasn’t played out that way during a 1-2 start, though a young secondary allowing 7.1 net yards per pass attempt isn’t blameless, either.AP
