THE BLITZ projects the Giants to call the 9th-most plays on offense among all teams this week with 65.6 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.The Indianapolis Colts pass defense has been vulnerable when opposing tight ends have gotten into space, conceding an average of 5.67 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 10th-most in the NFL.The New York Giants have used play action on 28.4% of their dropbacks since the start of last season (10th-most in football), making the defense think run and leading to much higher passing efficiency.The New York Giants have gone no-huddle on 30.1% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (2nd-most in the NFL). This quickens the pace, resulting in more volume and stat accumulation.
