Key Factors
Favors Over
The Giants are a big 9.5-point underdog in this week's game, indicating an extreme passing game script.
The New York Giants have run the 9th-most plays in the league this year, totaling a monstrous 63.5 plays per game.
THE BLITZ projects Darius Slayton to be a much bigger part of his team's passing offense this week (15.2% projected Target Share) than he has been this year (2.6% in games he has played).
Darius Slayton has been responsible for a monstrous 22.6% of his team's air yards since the start of last season: 77th percentile among wide receivers.
The Green Bay Packers pass defense has been particularly weak when opposing WRs have gotten into space, conceding an average of 7.70 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 2nd-most in the league.
Favors Under
The Giants rank as the 5th-least pass-centric team in the league (adjusted for context) this year with a 57.5% pass rate.
THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 3rd-smallest volume of plays run among all games this week at 127.0 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
The weather forecast calls for 12-mph wind in this game. High wind typically means reduced pass volume (and increased run volume) and decreased passing efficiency.
Opposing QBs have averaged 29.5 pass attempts per game vs. the Green Bay Packers defense this year: 3rd-least in football.
The New York Giants offensive line profiles as the 5th-worst in the league this year in protecting the quarterback, which has a negative impact on all pass attack stats across the board.
