The O.D.B 4,349 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 This past season Brady was not sacked a single time until the Chiefs game or the SB (can't remember which). We just bet the house payment that we could improve the line with our draft and FA. We are hopeful but, we know very well how hard it can be to get a line to gel (after Mud Ducks departure and up to our historic 2016). Just for Fun, what would a season look like where Matt took zero or less than 10 sacks in a season? I'm thinking we'd have a season without those moments where we "need" a play to stay in or win a game. I would think with that kind of protections teams could only hang with us through equal talent (not many have it) or through sheer luck. robertap, FalconBlood and g-dawg 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FalconsIn2012 35,703 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Have to shorten our route tree. Despite being WCO, our routes take a bit to unfold. But it would be amazing...lol Knight of God and slick0ne 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
falcons007 24,150 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 It’s not just the sacks but hits which wears down the Qb. Add more pressures, all QB get happy feet. Ryan was sacked 37 times in 2016 but wasn’t getting hit nor was under duress all game. jay1k2 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And that's really not a big deal tbh Brady went 1 or 2 games without getting sacked woooaaahhhh Also he mentions Ryan for a season so I think he meant the entire season.

Jesus 26,431 Posted May 1, 2019 Share Posted May 1, 2019 Brady's offense is all built around getting the ball out his hands as quickly as possible and usually right in front of him. Tim Mazetti and MoFalconsFan56 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Then why say season? And why ask about Ryan only being sacked for 10 a season? He's talking regular season my dude. And even then 2 playoff games with no sacks for the Patriots isn't a big deal. You know how fast Brady gets the ball out. MoFalconsFan56 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
