New Orleans at New York matchups: Saints defense vs. Giants offense

The New Orleans Saints play their second straight road game this week, traveling north to face the 1-2 New York Giants. The New Orleans defense, so improved a year ago, has struggled for the most part this season. They've given up the most points in the NFL thus far, and rank 30th in the league in total yardage. They oppose a New York offense that ranks 24th, and has scored an average of just 18 points per game. Despite their middle of the pack offensive numbers, the Giants have quite a bit of ability at the skill positions, and present a big test against a Saints defense that looks far from playoff caliber.
