A throwing game script is implied by the Giants being a -6-point underdog in this week's game.The 9th-most plays in the NFL have been run by the Giants since the start of last season (a massive 58.6 per game on average).The air attacks of both teams (including both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the calm weather conditions (4-mph wind) being predicted in this game, while run volume may go down.Daniel Bellinger is positioned as one of the most sure-handed receivers in football among tight ends, hauling in an exceptional 100.0% of balls thrown his way (adjusted for context) since the start of last season, ranking in the 100th percentile.Since the start of last season, the fierce Chargers run defense has conceded a measly 0.45 rushing TDs per game to opposing squads: the smallest rate in the league.
