At a -7-point disadvantage, the Giants are enormous underdogs in this week's game, suggesting much more of an emphasis on passing than their typical game plan.The Giants have called the 3rd-most plays in football this year, totaling a staggering 61.0 plays per game.Devin Singletary has put up a monstrous 1.0 air yards per game this year: 78th percentile when it comes to running backs. (This may not sound too impressive, but most RBs have negative air yards given that they are usually targeted behind the line of scrimmage).The New York Giants offensive line grades out as the 8th-best in football this year in protecting the quarterback, which has a positive influence on all passing game stats across the board.This year, the stout Patriots run defense has surrendered a mere 0.33 TDs on the ground per game to opposing squads: the lowest rate in the NFL.
