EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The Giants’ defense had a split personality in the first quarter of the 2015 season.
Through four games, the unit is first in the NFL defending the run, allowing an average of only 69.8 yards a game. But the defense is also 32nd and last in the league in pass defense, surrendering an average of 316.3 yards through the air.
Both of those figures would be franchise records, even if they change somewhat between now and the end of the season.
