New York Giants: Why week 3 vs the 49ers is a must win game

Coming off two consecutive losses to open the 2020 season, the New York Giants are desperately in need of a victory. New head coach Joe Judge is not used to losing records, but his team has fought endlessly to try and turn the narrative around.

The Giants in 2019 were an embarrassment, with multiple rookies starting on defense and a lackluster offensive line.

However, the defense this year looks significantly better, and that is without second-round pick Xavier McKinney at free safety. They have competed well, with one of the best defenses through two weeks of the regular season.
