Will the D return to NY?

The Giants are ready to redeem themselves after last season, their once fierce defense was barely scary last year. After an offseason of moves and a draft the Giants feel that their Bark is back on the defensive side of the ball!! The G-men added JPP, if you don't know who that is please google Jason Pierre-Paul and sit back and enjoy the show. JPP is a ridiculously gifted athlete and he plays defensive end. Prior to his playing football at South Florida, he didn't even know what a sack was!! Now that he is fully aware of what one is he is ready to apply his talents to the already formidable defensive line of the Giants. Adding JPP to Osi and J. Tuck is crazy, I'm not saying that this kid is anything like Strahan but do you all remember how dangerous that d-line was when it was Osi, Strahan and Tuck??? They now have the potential to have the same type of impact now that this kid is on board. The Giants lost their leader on defense when Antonio Pierce retired, so someone is going to have to step up in that middle linebacker spot. How could I forget, the Giants still have Mathias Kiwanuka on that line as well!! Jonathan Geoff and Gerris Wilkinson will compete for Pierce's old spot. The Giants lost future saftey standout Kenny Phillips to a knee injury last year, just in case Phillips isn't fully ready by the start of the season the Giants aquired playmaker Antrel Rolle to bolster their defensive backfield. What gives the Giants an advantage in increasing their pass rush is that their corners THRIVE in press coverage, they really JAM opposing team's wide outs!! If the defense returns, expect to see the Giants back in the mix in the playoff picture. Who do you think is going to win the starting MLB spot?? Will the addition of JPP increase the number of sacks the Giants get this year?? Will Kenny Philllips be ready by the start of the season, and if so does the pariing of Phillips and Rolle give the Giants one of the best safety tandems in the league?? Will the Giants finish the season as one of the top 10 defenses in the league??
