We have Poe, Hali, Houston, DJ, Berry, Flowers, and solid role guys like Jackson and Devito. And they blow a 38-10 lead in the 2nd half....what gives?

Seriously though... sometimes it just comes down to rushing the passer. Even if you have Pro Bowl DBs everywhere... they can't do squat in today's NFL. They have to cover better than we did today, for sure... but it's quickly becoming a pitch and catch game where you have to try to rush the QB before he can get rid of it. The Giants had a very average set of DBs and won two Super Bowls because their pass rush was great.
