3 reasons the Giants will take down the Bengals and Joe Burrow on SNF

2. The Giants pass-rush builds off its seven-sack performance

As already mentioned, the Giants' pass-rush had a great game against Seattle, as the group had seven sacks. Shane Bowen called a great game, with his playmakers up front causing so many problems for Smith and the Seattle offensive line. More of the same should be one the way against the Bengals.

Of the seven sacks posted, Dexter Lawrence had three of them, reminding everyone why he's one of the best defensive players in the NFL. The Giants will be without Kayvon Thibodeaux for SNF (wrist surgery), but look for Brian Burns and Azeez Ojulari to impress on the outside. The good news here too is that the Bengals' offensive line is not too sharp. Burrow has been sacked 11 times already in five games. The G-Men will look to add to that tally.

This is a perfect chance for the Giants' defense to make life for Burrow and the offensive line for the Bengals a living nightmare. Being back home in front of the Giants faithful, who will surely be rocking, and going up against a poor offensive line of the Bengals should give the Giants an advantage. Lawrence will have another big game, while Burns will do his thing in primetime too.
