Player Props – Week 17

Giants vs. Rams

Right now, Tyrod Taylor’s passing yards prop is set at 205.5 yards (-110/-110).
The public has bet the OVER up to 205.5 (-110) after it opened @ 196.5 (-110).

Pros

  • The Giants will be forced to use backup QB Tyrod Taylor in this week’s contest, which usually means fewer pass attempts and more rushes.
  • At a -6.5-point disadvantage, the Giants are underdogs this week, suggesting more of a focus on throwing than their usual approach.
  • Given the game dynamics and the underlying approaches of each team, this game is forecasted by the projections to have 132.4 plays on offense run: the 2nd-highest number on the slate this week.
  • Opposing QBs have averaged 38.5 pass attempts per game vs. the Rams defense this year: 6th-most in the league.
  • When it comes to safeties in pass coverage, Los Angeles’s safety corps has been easily exploitable this year, ranking as the 5th-worst in football.
Cons

  • The model projects the Giants as the 9th-least pass-oriented team among all teams this week with a 54.8% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
  • Tyrod Taylor has attempted a measly 14.4 throws per game this year, checking in at the 11th percentile among quarterbacks.
  • The Giants offensive line grades out as the worst in football this year in pass protection, which has a harmful impact on all pass attack stats across the board.
  • With a dreadful rate of 90.0 adjusted passing yards per game (11th percentile), Tyrod Taylor has been among the weakest quarterbacks in football this year.
  • This year, the strong Rams defense has surrendered a feeble 64.1% Adjusted Completion Rate to opposing teams: the 4th-best rate in football.
