2. The NY Giants pass-rush will step up against a mediocre Texans offensive line

The offensive line of the Texans is not bad by any means, but the Giants defensive line needs to get back on track after a couple of weak performances. In the last two games, NY only has one sack to its name from the guys up front.

Most importantly, Dexter Lawrence should be in line for a great game, as Texans center Scott Quessenberry has allowed a league-high six sacks. Lawrence has been the one of the best defensive lineman in the league this season. The hope is he’ll give Houston all kinds of issues.

As for the rest of the Giants defensive line, we could see another rough game from the team’s edge rushers, as Laremy Tunsil and Tytus Howard are two very good offensive linemen. However, players like Leonard Williams could put on a show, as Kenyon Green is having an awful rookie season, and A.J Cann’s solid, but not great.

While Tunsil and Howard are both very good, we have seen Kayvon Thibodeaux bring it to some great offensive linemen like David Bakhtiari this season, so nothing is set in stone and Thibodeaux could easily dominate. This will all be something to watch come Sunday.
