  • THE BLITZ projects the Minnesota Vikings to be the 3rd-most pass-centric team on the slate this week with a 64.3% pass rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • THE BLITZ projects this game to see the 5th-largest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 133.7 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
  • The Minnesota Vikings have run the 8th-most plays in football this year, averaging a whopping 60.7 plays per game.
  • This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Vikings are a 4.5-point favorite in this week's contest, likely leading to a rushing game script.
  • Opposing offenses have averaged 33.8 pass attempts per game against the New York Giants defense this year: 9th-least in the league.
  • Adam Thielen's 43.7 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—a volume stat that measures high-value offensive involvement) has been quite a bit lower this year than it was last year at 52.5.
  • The Minnesota Vikings O-line grades out as the 5th-worst in the league this year in pass protection, which has a harmful effect on all passing game statistics across the board.
  • Adam Thielen's receiving reliability have tailed off this year, with his Completion% decreasing from 77.8% to 71.3%.
