How many sacks will we get against the Giants?

Coming into the game against Denver, the Broncos had allowed only 7 sacks. We sacked Cutler three times, almost half of what they've allowed all year long. The Giants allowed 8 sacks last night against the Cowboys and 23 sacks all year long. Out of the 14 games so far the Giants have allowed at least one sack in 10 games, and they have allowed 0 sacks in 4 of their games.

I think this largely depends on Jacobs, whether he comes back against us or not. I think this also depends greatly on what kind of gameplan Turdo comes up with.

I'm going to guess we get 4 sacks.

Hard to say. NY has a better run game than Denver and I think stopping it will be our first priority on defense, especially if Jacobs is healthy.

NY definitely has a better running game, but even when Jacobs was in teams found a way to get to Manning. I was really impressed with the Cowboys' defense last night. They stopped the run AND had Eli running for his life. I'm thinking Peppers is going to have a multiple sack game this Sunday night.

Well then keep moving nancy and stop cluttering up my thread...oh you want to win? No sh*t, now let's figure out what will go into a win.

OKAY!! Well figuring out a win? How about not worrying about sacks and let's worry about stopping there offensive weapons. Dumbass!! You would think with that big brain of yours on your avatar you would know that:smilielol5:

But the Cowboys are the number one team in the NFL at getting to the QB this year, so that didn't surprise me. And Dallas really didn't stop the run as much as New York abandoned the run. New York only rushed the ball 17 times as opposed to 35 passes. The Giants YPC really wasn't that bad (4.2). I would like to see what their ypc on first down was though.

If we can get a two score lead against the Giants, then we might get some sacks.

Sacks=backing up the Giants offense, taking them out of good situations, which directly correlates to offensive efficiency, which affects their scoring, etc. etc. If we get sacks, their offensive weapons don't matter, fruitcake. If you want to discuss their offensive weapons then feel free to start your own thread, otherwise quit opening your yap when big folks are talking.

The Cowboys are the best team at getting to the quarterback, so I'll agree that it wasn't surprising that the Cowboys got sacks, but 8 sacks?!? That's insane in the NFL. That happens about as often as an elite quarterback admits to not knowing that a game could end in a tie.

The Giants attempted to pass the ball 16 times out of 28 first down plays. On the times they tried to run the ball on first down they averaged 3 yards a carry. But most of the positive run plays happened in the fourth quarter. Before the fourth quarter, the Cowboys stuffed the Giants on 1st down run plays.

    • If you're looking for a pat on the back it sounds good in theory until you realize they also had the 2023 Panthers as the top draft class.
    • Going into the 2003 and 2015 seasons we were supposed to be the joke of the league each time. In 2003, John Fox was supposed to still be in rebuild mode. We had a guy named Peppers on the defensive line who was supposed to be pretty good. We had Rodney Peete as our starting QB and a line that was a lot of hope and not much experience. Our new running back was a guy the Redskins, errrr Commanders, had jettisoned for being too old. We had a good kicker and writers thought that was needed because there were going to be more field goals than touch downs. Heck, it looked like they were right up until just before halftime of that first game when we had to yank Rodney Peete and put in some Cajun duded whose name couldn't be pronounced. And Steve Smith? He wasn't Smitty yet. Moose Muhammad, well, he was close to being written off as a bust. You know how that turned out. And then in 2015, we had Cam Newton, who was electrifying to watch but hadn't really won anything yet. There was an offensive line in front of him that looked like it was made in a defunct Swiss cheese factory and our big hope on offense was the great Kelvin Benjamin. And then he got taken out for the year with a knee injury in training camp. Ted "Feet of Lightning, Hands of Stone" Ginn became our default go to guy beside our next best hope, yeah, Devin Funchess. Our defense was pretty good, a scrappy bunch with frikkin' awesome linebacker play and a cornerback who had done more than drank the Kool-Aid, but had snorted the powder. He played like a superhero and became sort of a bat-man during the season. By the Super Bowl he had completely lost his freaking mind, though, and managed to talk his way out of a contract with the team next year. No one was expecting us to win the NFCSouth that season, much less almost go undefeated and into the Super Bowl. So, 2026? Who knows? But our best seasons came when no one had a reason to believe in us, except us.
    • it's not so much this personal vendetta against the Carolina Panthers as it is more about Bryce Young never not once been in the same conversation with the top 15 or even top 20 Qbs in the NFL ..just saying
