After going 4-13 last season, the Giants expect to be better with John Harbaugh as coach
John Harbaugh inherits a 4-13 team as the Giants rebuild around Jaxson Dart and a defense expected to improve.
The New York Giants hired Super Bowl champion John Harbaugh as head coach, tasking him with restoring the organization to prominence after last season's 4-13 finish.
General manager Joe Schoen and Harbaugh overhauled the roster and coaching staff, bringing in offensive coordinator Matt Nagy and defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson to revitalize the team.
Quarterback Jaxson Dart enters his second NFL season as the undisputed starter, supported by the return of wide receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely.
New additions Brian Burns, Abdul Carter, and Kayvon Thibodeaux will rush the passer to bolster a defense being counted on to improve drastically after ranking among the league's worst.
Stopping the run remains a significant question after allowing 145.3 yards per game last season, though contending for a playoff spot would make this 7.5-win over/under season a success.
