3. Giants defensive line sacks Trevor Lawerence 5 times

The Jaguars have only surrendered 10 sacks this season, but that does not mean their offensive line is good. Trevor Lawerence is facing a ton of pressure – he just seems to escape the pocket quickly to avoid being sacked.

This weekend, he will face more pressure then he has felt all season, and he won’t be able to escape. Leonard Williams, Kayvon Thibodeaux, Jihad Ward, and Dexter Lawrence, who has been playing like an All-Pro defensive lineman this season, will wreck the Jaguars offensive line that features a rookie center and two shaky tackles.

It is never a good thing for a quarterback when his offensive line is allowing pressures, and with Wink Martindale’s defense blitzing more then any other in the league, Lawrence will be on the ground at least five times this weekend.
