Jason Pierre-Paul stresses importance of Giants needing to beat Eagles in Week 3

Jason Pierre-Paul called it a “must-win game” and suggested the Giants “play like this is the Super Bowl,” so there was no sugarcoating from him on Friday regarding the circumstances of Sunday’s game against the Eagles.

“We know we need this game,” the defensive end said.

The question is how to get it. And the answer might well depend on how Pierre-Paul and his pals on defense play, given promising signs they have shown and the ongoing struggles on offense.

Pierre-Paul and fellow end Olivier Vernon totaled one sack of Detroit quarterback Matthew Stafford in a 24-10 loss on Monday night, but they did harass him regularly.
