The New York Giants’ defense was incredible last season. FootballOutsiders ranked them second just behind the Denver Broncos’ defense under Wade Phillips. In this video breakdown, I explained their scheme, how they use a NASCAR pass rush package, and what makes them so good. The Giants’ defense is based on the 4-3 Over front. In this defense, the three-technique defensive tackle lines up on the strongside of the formation. In this alignment, he is usually responsible for the B-gap in run support. In the other interior position, the nose tackle lines up opposite of the weakside shoulder of the center. Overall, the Giants’ defense is so good is because there is little consistency in their formations. They formations are unpredictable and it makes strategizing against them even harder when they have so much natural talent on the field.
The fact that with a small donation you can create a video like this on pretty much any idea the guy doing the donation wants is pretty insane. I love the New York giants and now I feel like I know their defense a hell of a lot more. Thank you! Looking forward to see how our dtackle drafted replaces Hankins.
One thing that allowed the Gmen to be so aggressive in their front is they had 4 really good DBs. even teams with a good slot receiver that usually creates a mismatch found he was covered with a quality DB. Collins Apple Jenkins and DCR are all premier defenders.
Dude, they don't even have to get that high! Look what they just did with the 31st overall defense and 24th scoring defense.. If they can move up just a couple spots they'll be more than good enough to get themselves into the 'ship.
@@GRITBONE Indeed. They just need players who don't like up offsides in critical games! lol Seriously though, I'm excited and players like Hitchens have already spoken highly of this defensive scheme giving the linebackers a simpler, single gap role which allows them react quickly and aggressively. Most of the local press have noticed a HUGE difference in how the defensive coaches are actually COACHING, unlike the passive style of the old Bob Sutton regime. Mahomes has stated that this defense, even in light pads and no contact is really challenging the offense in ways he hasn't seen before. Once Chris Jones is signed, I think this unit could actually be a top 15 group. They have Brandan Daly of the Patriots whose d-line dominated in the playoffs last year. They have Matt House coaching the linebackers, who had perhaps the best linebacking corps in college football last year at Kentucky and Dave Merritt coaching defensive backs, who shares a Super Bowl ring with Spagnuolo from their Giants days. Pretty much a super group of coaches. In addition, there will be several different starters from last season so to compare this group with the group from last year is silly. It's going to a very different look and approach, no doubt.
@@herscheld1853 He wasn't much of a beast in the AFC Championship, especially since his dumb ass cost us a Super Bowl. He's too small to be a 4-3 down lineman and we got a truly ELITE rusher in Clark so I'm glad to see him go. The "read and react" bullshit Bob Sutton scheme is gone and I'm happy. They did not get better toward the end and that's why we couldn't beat a single playoff caliber team even with Mahomes and Hill scoring 40 points a game. This defense, at the very least, will be more aggressive and help the offense a lot more. On paper, the Chiefs D is a better unit than the 2007 Giants that Spagnuolo won a Super Bowl with and we have a far better QB than Eli ever was. If they don't win a Super Bowl this year, I will be shocked.
@Ian Balllard lmfaoooo the chiefs defense is better than the 2007 Giants D who beat the undfeated Pats lol stay off drugs you got some players i give you that Chris Jones, newly accuired tyran mathieu n frank clark thats about if lol.
Hey Sam, I'm from Australia and have been a rugby league fan my whole life. Over the last 5 years I have started to watch a little College and NFL football. Your videos are helping me understand the technical side of the game, however I get lost in some of the terminology used quite often. Perhaps you could do a 'football for dummies' clip or next best option recommend some?
Las Vegas Raiders Beast Mode I seen the zeke vid forsure makes you wonder though how special prescotts rookie season was he did a video on Patrick Mahomes and showed his strengths and weaknesses id love to see a vid like that on #4 (not a cowboys fan just wanna see how good he really is and how well he goes through his reads but I'm too lazy to breakdown the hilights and I don't have the football brain of Samuel gold 😂😭)
ahh hurts to see all those plays as a Cowboys fan, but you did a great job breaking down the plays. Would you be able to please Cowboy fans by giving them a breakdown for the offense?
I don't look at DBs without ALL22, so that knocks out all college prospects. I might look at some later this offseason. If you have a specific one in mind follow this link to suggest one! www.patreon.com/SamuelRGold
MegaPS3Gamer As a Giants fan it frustrates the living hell out of me. Every time we play Dallas our D-line is practically getting wrapped up and tackled but the refs act like the three blind mice.
the giants defense was good but they will be better this year....barring injury... the Alabama dt will fit in perfect in place of hankins..goodson will be the mlb..Collins in his 3rd year..apple in his 2nd year and some of their free agent pickups along the def line that flew under the radar will be a handful for teams this year.....especially when the giants offense might be over the top...if this all comes together the giants will be tough to beat!
I think he'll play 1st and 2nd downs and will be taken out on 3rd downs for Chris Thompson. I don't think he'll start immediately, but maybe by like the 3rd game.
One of them will be getting more carries than the other. I think Kelley has the starting role until he loses it. But if he does lose it, don't expect him to get more than 3-5 carries per week after that. The same goes for Perrine if he's not a starter. You only have limited carries to dish out and you have to establish a rhythm.
although their defense was really good last year, I would say linebacker is a big weakness on there because none of them aren't that good or even average.
Kelvin Sheppard was pretty quiet most of the year. Casillas was pretty decent and Keenan Robinson was solid in coverage. B.J. Goodson is getting the MLB job now and he's a run thumper himself.
if u watched the game thoroughly you would've seen the Giants hold the Packers to under 20 or so yards for the first 1 and a half qtrs.. before halftime the Packers scored on a poor defensive stance with a (lucky hail Mary ).. after holding the Packers for about 3 and half qtrs the Giants defense got fatigued due to the offense not producing, a a crucial peice on their defense also got injured. from there on out it was all Packers offense
Deadpool show MW the tape, keep making excuses for dez. Ooooo he was hurt Oooo he doesn't have the chemistry yet with Prescott Ooooo he still has more TDs than anybody in his career
Why would you accept more money to go to a shit team? Just take a bit less and stay on a playoff bound team. Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan did that and now instead of going back to the playoffs as Broncos, they'll be luck to make the playoffs on their current team.

I enjoy learning about the schemes and strategy in today's game....awesome stuff!

Exactly
When was Eli Apple ever premier??😂😂
A “Modern” Tampa - 2 D. Love how coaches take something and mold it into their own. Fascinating!
Great video and awesome work. It´s really nice learn this fantastic sport with this type of help. Thanks so much. Cheers from Spain.
I always get happy when someone that doesn't live in America enjoys American football
Hope the Chiefs can make it work for them!!!! IF they can get to the middle of the pack on D they are set!😎

Ohh I’m lit lit 🔥 now after watching this video chiefs D gunna be lit next season man oh man can the draft come already .
Juan Thornhill and Khalen Saunders will be BEASTS in this defense.
This didn’t age well :/
I hope Spags and get The Chiefs Defense looking like this 💪🏾😤
Chiefs defense was much better toward the end of the season. Franchised tagged Dee Ford he was a beast last yr...

@bigtest716 I’m from the future - he’s got the Chiefs defense looking even better than that
Jim Johnson's D.. Jim's spirit lives on now with better talent than he was given in Philly.
Great vid
Wonderful video. Thank you.
breakdown arizona's hybrid defense next please, great vid.
Luv it

Your amazing, keep making videos
Can you breakdown dak prescotts rookie season and how much was due to zeke and his oLine were his reads good how did he really do??
Id like but i have a shit phone so...
Like +1 👍
He did one on Zeke a few weeks ago that covers the o-line argument pretty well! Not sure about Dak though friendo
Las Vegas Raiders Beast Mode I seen the zeke vid forsure makes you wonder though how special
prescotts rookie season was he did a video on Patrick Mahomes and showed his strengths and weaknesses id love to see a vid like that on #4 (not a cowboys fan just wanna see how good he really is and how well he goes through his reads but I'm too lazy to breakdown the hilights and I don't have the football brain of Samuel gold 😂😭)
Lechoke James of course his reads were good. He broke the rookie record for passing percentage and passer rating
Actually I was thinking of Brett Kollman's video, idk if he's done a Zeke video
Awesome!!!
ahh hurts to see all those plays as a Cowboys fan, but you did a great job breaking down the plays. Would you be able to please Cowboy fans by giving them a breakdown for the offense?
Basically the lions cant run the ball, we get it
J Yaz Lmao
You should do the 2019 Patriots defense. I'd love to know more about why they have been good thus far...
They’ve played 0 good teams
Chiefs "NASCAR" front: Frank Clark, Chris Jones, Emmanuel Ogbah, Alex Okafor.... RIP Tom Brady. :)
will we ever get a CB break down?
a S and LB would be nice as well.
I don't look at DBs without ALL22, so that knocks out all college prospects. I might look at some later this offseason. If you have a specific one in mind follow this link to suggest one!

Samuel Gold do Landon Collins
Break down how Tom Brady is always able to identify the other teams defense and call the right the protection
2:18 Tyron smith hella grabbing the shoulder pad
MegaPS3Gamer ridiculous how Dallas gets away with so many holds
MegaPS3Gamer As a Giants fan it frustrates the living hell out of me. Every time we play Dallas our D-line is practically getting wrapped up and tackled but the refs act like the three blind mice.
MegaPS3Gamer that's called domination
Deadpool that's called paying the refs
Make a video of the Texans defense !!
Can You do the Giants back Up Qb Josh Johnson cut ups.
Can you break down a 43 over plus
The Kansas City Chiefs 4-3 Over front Defense Use a NASCAR pass rush package, and what makes them so perfect?
You think you can do a video on how dontari Poe can help the falcons dline/run defense
the giants defense was good but they will be better this year....barring injury...
the Alabama dt will fit in perfect in place of hankins..goodson will be the mlb..Collins in his 3rd year..apple in his 2nd year and some of their free agent pickups along the def line that flew under the radar will be a handful for teams this year.....especially when the giants offense might be over the top...if this all comes together the giants will be tough to beat!
What website or app do u use
Samuel I notice you analyse a lot of the Seahawks plays/players. I am a Seattle fan, are you? Btw I really enjoy the videos
I'm a Redskins fan actually. But I write for FieldGulls.com which is a Seahawks site.
Welcome to CHIEFS KINGDOM Spags!
can u do atl vs no & tb y they where able to score so many points
do Derruis Guice LSU Film room and Marshon Lattimore
If only we had one solid bad ass LB this defense would be way better than what film showed.
bj goodson this season
3-4 defense next?
Madden needs to make fire zone blitz a nano ;y
Dee Ford brought me here
how do you think samaje perine will fit with the skins and will he be the starter at any point this season
I think he'll play 1st and 2nd downs and will be taken out on 3rd downs for Chris Thompson. I don't think he'll start immediately, but maybe by like the 3rd game.
what about rob kelley he's still there so there would be a rotation
One of them will be getting more carries than the other. I think Kelley has the starting role until he loses it. But if he does lose it, don't expect him to get more than 3-5 carries per week after that. The same goes for Perrine if he's not a starter. You only have limited carries to dish out and you have to establish a rhythm.
Samuel Gold 3-5 wow that's low but thanks for responding
Any zeke film or oline film... Hb prescott tape
Carliona panther where they at Gold?
although their defense was really good last year, I would say linebacker is a big weakness on there because none of them aren't that good or even average.
brandon williams Keenan Robinson was good last year. And both WLB and SLB played good in the Giants schemes.
The LB were average for the most part.
Kelvin Sheppard was pretty quiet most of the year. Casillas was pretty decent and Keenan Robinson was solid in coverage. B.J. Goodson is getting the MLB job now and he's a run thumper himself.
And I would say free safety is a weak point as well because you got to have someone at least decent enough to play beside Landon Collins
brandon williams Free safety is not weak at all, we have Darian Thompson and Andrew adams
FYI, his name is pronounced de-VAWN Keh-NAARD
Can you make a video on how the Packers just whooped they ass? What happened to the great defense?
if u watched the game thoroughly you would've seen the Giants hold the Packers to under 20 or so yards for the first 1 and a half qtrs.. before halftime the Packers scored on a poor defensive stance with a (lucky hail Mary ).. after holding the Packers for about 3 and half qtrs the Giants defense got fatigued due to the offense not producing, a a crucial peice on their defense also got injured. from there on out it was all Packers offense
Reynaldo Ramirez they lost their best DB. Before that, they were getting shut down.
Now we have a washed looking 3-4 with people looking lost. I miss good NYG Defense!
What was the Giants record with this so called #2 defense? 3-13 right?
They were 11-5. 3-13 came a year later after Spag left.
Chiefs fans don't get too hyped 🤣🤣 it takes at least 2 years for Players to adjust to Spagnola's defense and reach the top ranks
Not so bad now... took some time for it to come together.
Spags is gonna stop this 49ers run game and pick off garapolo let's go chiefs. We gonna win this Superbowl.
That’s giants should’ve kept 4-3 defense
yet, dez bryant said they played cover 5 in the whole game 😂😂😂😂😂😂
jet li Jenkins still needed safety help
Deadpool show MW the tape, keep making excuses for dez.
Ooooo he was hurt
Oooo he doesn't have the chemistry yet with Prescott
Ooooo he still has more TDs than anybody in his career
Deadpool lmao you making shit up breh?
Deadpool There were alot of one on one opportunities that dez could've taken advantage, cowboy fans forever making excuses for dez
WTF LOL at 6:02 you clearly see number 70 make eye contact and dak clearly throwing it to him then he's like nope and turns his head around ... smh
c G Well, he's not allowed to catch the ball because he's an ineligible receiver. The ball was supposed to go to Elliot
damn all my time watching football i had no idea there were "ineligible receivers" lol
c G It was supposed to be a screen pass to Zeke, but Zeke picked up on a block instead of running his route while #70 continued his "block".
ha ha 69
Why would you accept more money to go to a shit team? Just take a bit less and stay on a playoff bound team. Malik Jackson and Danny Trevathan did that and now instead of going back to the playoffs as Broncos, they'll be luck to make the playoffs on their current team.
Lol you think you know 😂. This isn't a game of madden 😂
this let me know the NFL is biased cowboys better run defense and pass rush smh so overrated
Cowboys are ass bro
