The 49ers may lean on the pass less in this contest (and hand the ball off more) because they be forced to start backup quarterback Mac Jones.The projections expect this game to see the 2nd-highest number of plays run out of all the games this week at 138.0 plays, given the traits of each team and game dynamics.The 3rd-largest volume of plays in the league have been called by the San Francisco 49ers this year (a staggering 60.9 per game on average).The projections expect Mac Jones to attempt 36.7 passes in this contest, on balance: the 8th-most out of all quarterbacks.The Giants defense has been a bit of pass funnel this year, allowing opposing offenses to attempt the 9th-most passes in the NFL (37.4 per game) this year.
