But we have only played one game.Another game without an INT for our D. We have been bottom 10 in INTs and PDs for the last 5 years. This deserves more discussion as turnovers are the ultimate equalizer.
You have to score points so the opposing offense feels pressure and starts taking more risks.
Yeah it's kinda tough to get to get picks when they only attempt 25 throws with a 6.2 yard per attempt.
We did force 2 fumbles though.
Eli will be a good test.

Giants plan this week?
Find Anthony Brown. Throw deep on Brown. Guaranteed touchdown or defensive pass interference
I am very interested in this stat as the season progresses. Pressure on the QB *should* generate more opportunities for interceptions and PDs, plus we have Kris Richard. I want to see the performance of these 2 metrics rise significantly this year.Another game without an INT for our D. We have been bottom 10 in INTs and PDs for the last 5 years.

I'm just very unhappy about the way the secondary was constructed in general. It's so important in today's NFL, and I feel we have one of the worst DB corps in football.
Why? The corners are good. You can't have all pros at every position.
Maybe I'm being deluded because I live in New York, where both teams have great safeties, but I would think Heath and Woods are one of the bottom safety tandems in the league.
And yeah Cam didn't pass downfield, but did he have to at any point?
Either way, the pass rush and front 7 is the strength of this defense and should be decent enough to keep us in most games. We all agree the issue with this team is on offense.
They tried to improve the safety position but Seattle would not make the trade.
Give the team 4 games. The next 3 games we play quarterbacks that throw lots of interceptions. I am more worried about are passing attack then are secondary.Yeah, we all know. Very unfortunate.
I guess my biggest problem with the secondary is that there's no ball-hawking playmaker that the other QB has to truly fear. I don't think the unit is more than the sum of its parts, for that very reason.
