Welcome back. It's the big blue banter. New York Giants football podcast. I'm Dan Schneier.

joins Zoe's my co-s Nick Falado. One day after getting eviscerated by that Cowboys blogger,

not just kidding. He didn't even call you out by name. But we're here today to jump right back into it and break down Nick Falado's rankings of the NFC East defenses by position groups

with his scientific scale that he created, as we talked about yesterday, put a lot of time into

this.

So please take it very, very seriously.

And it basically means everything.

So these rankings will determine the Giants' future success, both now and, you know, a few years into this

through this grading scale. But all jokes aside, I think it does give us an idea of how the

Giants stack up against the NFC East at least. And that is something that throughout different

regimes, we've been told at least, And that is something that throughout different regimes,

And ultimately, those games often decide if you get an automatic playoff berth by winning your

division, which hasn't been the case for the Giants in a while and is tough with the Eagles in your division. But also if you can kind of

compete for that wild card spot. So without further ado, Nick, let's dive into your defensive

rankings. We'll do a breakdown and then we'll do what we did last time, which is kind of recap at the

end. So let's start with the defensive line. I wanted to know where you're at with that.

Before we get into the defensive line, just a quick overview from the offense.

It was the Philadelphia Eagles that almost swept with four points across every position,

but they fell one short of that.

So they had 23 points.
