It likely comes as no surprise that the New York Giants are near the bottom in turnover differential once again. Last year they ranked 26th, with a dismal minus-eight, and aren't trending any better this year, with a minus-six disparity, ranking 28th.
Overall, they have nine takeaways, which is the third-worst mark in the league. It's no wonder their defense struggles so much -- they're not opportunistic and can't get off the field. That's called a recipe for disaster. Help isn't coming anytime soon... or at least, we thought it wasn't.
Preseason standout Dane Belton wasn't even supposed to make the 53-man roster this past offseason, but a strong summer had fans and the coaching staff buzzing over the potential turnover machine and his impact in Year 4.
