Giants vs. Packers
Right now, A.J. Dillon’s rushing yards prop is set at 62.5 yards (-110/-110).
Pros
- With a 5.5-point advantage, the Packers are favored this week, suggesting more of a focus on rushing than their usual game plan.
- Our trusted projections expect A.J. Dillon to garner 18.8 rush attempts in this game, on average, placing him in the 95th percentile among RBs.
- While A.J. Dillon has received 52.5% of his offense’s rush attempts in games he has played this year, the projections expect him to be much less involved in Green Bay’s run game in this contest at 36.3%.
- The Green Bay O-line grades out as the 6th-best in the league last year at executing run-blocking assingments.
- This year, the tough New York Giants run defense has allowed a mere 4.92 adjusted yards-per-carry to the opposing ground game: the 30th-smallest rate in football.
Cons
- The model projects the Green Bay Packers to be the 5th-least run-heavy offense among all teams this week with a 42.8% run rate, given their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.
- Given their underlying play style and game dynamics, the Green Bay Packers are predicted by the projections to run only 63.9 total plays in this contest: the 3rd-lowest number on the slate this week.
- The Green Bay Packers have run the 7th-fewest plays in the NFL this year, averaging a measly 55.9 plays per game.
- A.J. Dillon’s running efficiency (3.54 adjusted yards per carry) has been some of the worst in the league this year (15th percentile among RBs).
- When it comes to the defensive tackles’ role in run defense, New York’s group of DTs has been excellent this year, ranking as the best in football.
