Those 15 combined contacts resulted in just two total sacks, however. The Giants\u2019 three best pass-rushers all are playing 80 percent or more of the snaps with regularity, so it could be that late-season fatigue is causing them to arrive a step too late to make a difference.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2022-11-25T012401Z_235108936_MT1USATODAY19497614_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-YORK-GIANTS-AT-DALLAS-COWBOYS.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Micah Parsons celebrates after recording a sack during the Cowboys' win over the Giants on Thanksgiving. \" class=\"wp-image-24794765\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2022-11-25T012401Z_235108936_MT1USATODAY19497614_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-YORK-GIANTS-AT-DALLAS-COWBOYS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2022-11-25T012401Z_235108936_MT1USATODAY19497614_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-YORK-GIANTS-AT-DALLAS-COWBOYS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2022-11-25T012401Z_235108936_MT1USATODAY19497614_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-YORK-GIANTS-AT-DALLAS-COWBOYS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/11\/2022-11-25T012401Z_235108936_MT1USATODAY19497614_RTRMADP_3_NFL-NEW-YORK-GIANTS-AT-DALLAS-COWBOYS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Micah Parsons celebrates after recording a sack during the Cowboys\u2019 win over the Giants on Thanksgiving. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">USA TODAY Sports<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cI do think we\u2019re doing a good job of getting [the quarterback] off the spot, making him throw it faster than he wants to throw it,\u201d Daboll said. \u201cBut when you can get the quarterback down, you can move offenses behind the sticks and put them in more passing situations on the next down.
