Normally at this point in the pre-game phase of the week, we would be looking at how the New York Giants defense stacks up against the Atlanta Falcons’ potent offense.
But instead we’re going to do what the Giants themselves should do, and hopefully are doing, and take the extra days afforded by Thursday Night Football to break the weekly grind, take a breath, and problem solve.
The first step in problem solving is, of course, defining your problem.
The Giants as a franchise have a lot of them, certainly more on offense than defense, but the defense is not without some serious issues of its own.
