Malik Jackson quietly keying Denver Broncos defense | The MMQB with Peter King

Didn’t take Ninkovich long to reinforce to the Patriots that he was worth his recent three-year contract extension, as his 4.0 pressure points against the Falcons were nearly as much as his first three games combined (5.6). Ninkovich didn’t have a sack against the Falcons, but his eight hurries were tied for a league high with Hali. None was bigger than the hurry he notched with 9:43 left in the game—not that you would have known it from the television broadcast. Ninkovich dipped inside right tackle Jeremy Trueblood and quickly got in the face of Matt Ryan. Ninkovich’s presence sped up the throw from Ryan to Roddy White and caused an underthrow that was intercepted by cornerback Aqib Talib. Not that viewers were told that. The only thing they heard about was Talib’s pick.
