Giants Defense Worth Benching In Week 14
2 years agoThe defense of the New York Giants shouldn't be started in Week 14 against the Philadelphia Eagles. The Eagles are averaging the second-most points per game on offense and Jalen Hurts has led Philadelphia to the league's best record entering Sunday's contest. While the Giants have the fifth-best pressure rate, they only have 25 sacks on the season (tied for the 10th fewest in the NFL). New York's defense is also allowing 5.1 yards per attempt on the ground and will be tasked with containing Hurts and Miles Sanders. Given the less-than-ideal matchup, the defense of the Giants is not worth inserting into your lineup in Week 14.
