Check out the chart with the key statistics. He is the first pundit to acknowledge that the Giants are not the only team that's changed since we last faced off...

Brandt does a good job. Looks like he has an error on one of his charts. It shows we have a minus-17 sack differential (Giants with plus-25 differential). I think that's supposed to be plus-17 for us.

Yeah, that is what he had last week (http://www.nfl.com/news/story;jsessionid=524C45912ED3A7AE24AEDE44B0AA526B? id=09000d5d805d6e6f&template=with-video&confirm=true)

Also, I believe that the Packers gave up 17 sacks in 16 regular season games, and 1 last week for a total of 18. We had 38 sacks in 16 regular season games and had two last week for a total of 40. I don't get where this +17 or -17 number is coming from. It seems to me that our differential should be +20 or +21.
