The Giants may throw the ball less this week (and call more rushes) since they be forced to use backup quarterback Jameis Winston.The Giants are a massive 14-point underdog this week, likely creating an extreme passing game script.The leading projections forecast the New York Giants to be the 6th-least run-focused team on the slate this week with a 37.5% run rate, based on their underlying play style and matchup dynamics.The pass games of both teams (including both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (as in zero wind) inside this dome, while run volume may suffer.This year, the imposing Detroit Lions run defense has allowed a mere 97.0 adjusted rushing yards per game to opposing squads: the 8th-fewest in the league.
