We're down by a lot in the 2nd half, teams coast and run the ball/go more conservative resulting in less sack opportunities.

 

I'd say that's a more likely option than being tired.  These are professional athletes and they rotate in.  The fatigue thing is nothing more than a fan excuse in my opinion.

 

Possibly.  But unlikely...  I'm pretty sure teams have been throwing alot on us in the 2nd half as well....  Perhaps not as much as in the first, but for your hypothesis to be accurate, then the number of throw plays would have to drop by the same % as based on the number of sacks we have as a whole.

 

If the number of passing plays only dropps by say 10%, but the number of sacks drops by say 75%, then your hypothesis doesn't hold water.
