The New York Giants Defense Faces The Steelers In Week 8
4 weeks ago

New York Giants defense, despite a challenging 28-3 loss to the Eagles in Week 7, remains a formidable unit heading into their Monday Night Football matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers. Ranked 6th against the pass, allowing only 179.4 passing yards per game, the Giants defense will focus on containing Russell Wilson, who had a strong showing against the Jets with 264 yards and two touchdowns. However, the Giants' weakness against the run (25th, allowing 138.1 yards per game) could be exploited by Pittsburgh's 9th-ranked rushing offense, led by Najee Harris. The Giants lead the NFL in sacks with 31, and if they pressure Wilson effectively, they could disrupt Pittsburgh's 20th-ranked offense, which averages 314.1 total yards per game.
