Comments: “It took the Giants until the final drive with the starters in the third preseason game to show any signs of life on offense. They should get better as time goes on and they learn the new offensive scheme. The defense has remained solid, highlighted by free agent addition Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie -- who has yet to give up a catch.” - Dan Schneier
