I found the video I remember watching about Martindale with the Giants. Very interesting watch. It's that whole style of bringing almost everyone to the line, so the QB has limited pre-snap info, but you don't know where they're going until the snap.

This is the kinda stuff I wanna see. It doesn't look like this defense requires elite talent either. The Giants certainly didn't have elite talent at that time, other than Xavier McKinney and Dexter Lawrence. It does seem that we would need a smart athletic safety though. Which we do not have.

It would be nice to see Kenny Moore start blitzing from the corner again, like he use to.

I like that. Not only does it disguise the D from the QB, it gives the players a defined role prior to the moment of action. Kinda keeps their head in the play.

They have not interviewed the head janitor and chief toilet scrubber yet.

Then its off to the 2nd tier water boys and Irsay´s gardener before he gets sent back in the round up of illegals.
