On Thursday, I gave a thorough breakdown of the New York Giants’ offense and what it has done to move the ball consistently and effectively so far this season, so today I turn my attention to the defense. This is a scheme constructed by coordinator Steve Spagnuolo, quarterback Sam Bradford’s former head coach and a former assistant here in Philadelphia. Their blitz frequency shifts from week to week, but against certain opponents the Giants sent a ton of pressure. That is something the Eagles will have to be prepared for on Monday night.
When they do bring pressure, the Giants love to bring it straight up the middle.
