Atlanta @ N.Y. Giants
Team Totals: Giants 25.5, Falcons 22.5
Flamed by fringe NFL starter/backup QBs Teddy Bridgewater and Taylor Heinicke for a combined 62-of-80 passing (77.5%), 600 yards (7.5 YPA), and a 4:1 TD-to-INT ratio in Weeks 1-2, the Giants’ early-season defense has looked little like 2020’s overachieving unit. Bereft of pass rush, DC Patrick Graham’s group mustered three sacks and eight QB hits in its first two games. After immobile 36-year-old Matt Ryan endured up-front mismatches against Philly and Tampa Bay to begin the season, this sets up as Ryan’s best to-date chance at borderline QB1/2 production. … Even while Mike Davis led the Falcons’ Week 2 backfield in snaps (67%), routes run (28), and touches (16) over Cordarrelle Patterson (37%, 15, 12), C-Patt narrowed the ongoing position battle by hitting paydirt twice and improving his on-the-season receiving production to 7/81/1 on eight targets.
