Key Factors
Favors Over
The 6th-most plays in the league have been called by the Commanders this year (a monstrous 61.8 per game on average).
Since the start of last season, the deficient New York Giants pass defense has given up a monstrous 89.5% Adjusted Completion Rate to opposing running backs: the 3rd-worst rate in the NFL.
Favors Under
With a 3.5-point advantage, the Commanders are favored in this game, indicating more of a focus on running than their standard game plan.
Based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the predictive model expects the Commanders to pass on 51.0% of their downs: the lowest rate on the slate this week.
Based on the game dynamics and the underlying approaches of each team, this contest is forecasted by our trusted projection set to have just 123.6 offensive plays called: the 2nd-fewest out of all the games this week.
The weather report calls for 12-mph wind in this game. High wind typically means lower pass volume (and increased run volume) and lessened passing effectiveness.
The predictive model expects Austin Ekeler to be much more involved in his team's passing game this week (17.8% projected Target Share) than he has been last year (10.4% in games he has played).
