Like I said, on paper, they're a thor- 30th in scoring defense, right? They're giving up more than 30 points per game, and we've played some bad Commanders defense, and we're like, "Man, this is the game where our offense looks really good." They're 19th in EPA per play, um, and that wasn't why.

I was like, "Oh, they're actually more challenging." Um, but before that, you know that the first six games, the Giant...

Excuse me, in the first eight games, the Giants play five of the six worst scoring defenses.

And the, the one team that's not in the first eight games is the Lions, which I don't know if you saw Calvin Shepherd's press conference today.

The Joe Judge press conference seemed like the most rational thing ever, where he was...
Well, I've always wondered which, in your opinion, was a worse press conference, Joe Judge talking for 12 straight minutes or Ben McAdoo saying nothing? Like, when he just, like, had no answers anymore.

Now, they are bad in the red zone, right? They're the third-worst r- red zone defense, but like I mentioned, they hired the Vikings DB coach, so obviously playing under or coaching under Brian Flores as their defensive coordinator, and Dan Quinn handed over the play calling to him.

It is a challenging defense despite the bad results, and, and, and that obviously starts in the passing game, where again, they're 25th in passing yards, 24th in net yards per attempt.

And they're not, like b- they're not getting a bunch of sacks, right? They have seven sacks in four games.
