New York, Nov 28 (THAINDIAN NEWS) The New Orleans Saints will be looking forward to continue with their impressive defensive run in their last two games when they enter the pitch against the New York Giants. Prior to their last two games, they were statistically one of the worst defensive-minded teams this season although their offensive lines are considered one of the potent in the season.

Even with their defense improved in the last two games, the Saints are ranked 28th on the NFL’s red-zone defense.

Saints’ linebacker Jonathan Casillas believes the team could improve because they have concentrated their efforts to improving the statistics. The defense is currently working with coordinator Gregg Williams.

Casillas told newsmen that, “Practice always makes perfect. That’s what people say. You’ll never get to perfect. Everybody always tries to get to perfect. You strive for perfection and get excellence. That’s what we’re trying to do.”

The game at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium will put to test how far the defense of the Saints has improved. The Giants come into the game from a 2-match losing streak with the Saints hoping to take their winning streak to 3.

This season, the Saints have not been that bad having the season record of 7-3. The Giants are having an average season with a record of 6-4.
