Part 7/12:
Banks predicts that Denver may try to exploit play-action passes, especially to tight ends, considering Evan Ingram’s role as a hybrid receiver. The Broncos aim for deep shots downfield but have been inconsistent, with only a few big-play opportunities so far this season.

He highlights that Denver’s tight ends are often used in play-action schemes to create mismatches and open space in the middle of the field. The Giants’ linebackers and safeties need to be alert to offsets in formation, especially when Ingram is lining up in line or in the slot.
