MU [895315] TOTAL O4½-140 (TOTAL SACKS (TB/DET) VRS TOTAL SACKS (TB/DET))
USDTICKET # 175612159
I think 5 sacks is very doable. I see Aidan having one or two by himself and Bowles showed against Eagles they can bring it--3 sacks of Hurts. Eagles were bad against blitz all year, but Goff doesn't handle it well either.
Granted, we're looking for sacks, not picks. But, for that very reason, I think that Goff might be inclined to hold the ball a little longer rather than risk a pick in this setting.
Anyway, nothing huge--just a 2 unit for me.
