Key Factors
Favors Over
The New York Giants may throw the ball less in this week's contest (and hand the ball off more) since they be rolling out backup quarterback Drew Lock.
The Giants are a 4.5-point underdog in this week's game, likely creating a passing game script.
Given the game dynamics and the underlying traits of each team, this game is forecasted by the projections to see 133.8 offensive plays called: the 3rd-highest number among all games this week.
The New York Giants have called the 8th-most plays in football this year, totaling a massive 60.0 plays per game.
The Saints defense has been a prominent pass funnel this year, leading opposing offenses to attempt the 6th-most passes in the NFL (36.6 per game) this year.
Favors Under
The projections expect the Giants to be the 6th-least pass-oriented offense among all teams this week with a 54.2% pass rate, given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
The weatherman calls for 13-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means lower pass volume (and higher run volume) and lessened passing efficiency.
As it relates to protecting the passer (and the importance it has on all passing attack metrics), the O-line of the Giants profiles as the 9th-worst in the NFL this year.
This year, the stout New Orleans Saints defense has given up a mere 72.6% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing tight ends: the 6th-lowest rate in the league.
