Doesn't apply to the gmen cause most teams don't get a pass rush sending 4 like the giants do. I believe the giants have 38 sacks sending only 4.

It will when the Falcons hold in extra players to block which is how the Saints utterly negated our pass rush.

The falcons arent the saints. If they keep a TE and RB in to block that's one less player running a route. That behooves us.

Ryan also does not use the HBs as much as an outlet. With only 68 total receptions to the HB position.

First look at the reception distribution with also the amount of receivers that caught a ball (some was due to injuries) but the ones that were not many of the receptions are lumped together in groups.

Our hbs have caught 75 passes to date. Combined to be similar to our top 2 WRS. Lets not forget Mario and even Ballard missed some decent amount of time.

Well not sure if u noticed but I went back and rewatched some of the game. The Giants rushed 5 alot.

They lined up in first half on alot of their Sacks like this...........

Osi - Tuck- Joseph- Canty- JPP

And a few times the rushed Kiwi from his standing LB position off the edge.

Also saw J.Williams blitz a few times off that formation.

I think they do that and they will get plenty of pressure on Ryan and get Sacks and force him into mistakes he has not made in 7 games

It looks promising as of late, but again with no guarantees

U are right there are no guarantees, but we on 1 of only 12 teams still playing. I will take my chances. There are 20 teams out there tonight who's seasons are done. Any of them would trade places with the Gmen in an instant
