Brian Daboll points out the obvious after another defensive meltdown

For the third straight season, the New York Giants are starting off 2-6.

New York fell to the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, 38-20, and has now lost 12 straight games at Lincoln Financial Field and dropped their last 10 road games dating back to last year. To put it bluntly, it was an ugly loss for the G-Men that once again exposed their defense, which we all thought would be the team's biggest strength heading into the season.

It's their run defense in particular that continues to plague the unit. And instead of giving fans some glimmer of hope that things will change, head coach Brian Daboll stated the obvious about his struggling group.
