I am very concerned about their pass rush.
I am very concerned about our pass rush relative to their offensive line, which is very, very good.
I am very concerned about the relative health and effectiveness of our preferred WR's.
I feel good about Watson returning so at least we have the size and speed rather than Marcus Kemp out there if Juju and Toney can't go.

I was concerned with their pass rush, but I don’t think it’s all that much different from the other top pass rushes in the league. Sacks are the only metric that they blow away the rest of the league. All of the percentages for pressures, hurries, knockdowns, etc show that they’re still good, but not head and shoulder above everyone else. The sacks are the outlier, which is probably reflective of the QBs they played.
Also, we’ll get sacks of our own. Whether it’s Hurts or their pass protection, one of the two allowed 44 sacks this season. That was 12th most in the league, despite attempt the 10th fewest passes in the league this year.
