Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Abdul Carter (Giants) vs Bernhard Raimann (Colts) - winner: Abdul Carter, winning 55% of reps for 2.7 sacks and 7.8 pressures a game - the disruptor that swings the pass game.
  • Adetomiwa Adebawore (Colts) vs Francis Mauigoa (Giants) - winner: Adetomiwa Adebawore, winning 56% of reps for 1.7 sacks and 1.2 pressures a game - too much juice for the blocker.
In the Trenches
  • The Colts may have to manufacture pressure, winning 50% up front for 3.0 sacks a game (JT Tuimoloau (0.6 sacks, 4.4 pressures a game) the one to watch).
  • Pressure could be scarce for the Giants — a 51% win rate, 4.0 sacks and 16.7 pressures a game — Abdul Carter (2.7 sacks, 7.8 pressures a game) out front.
Through the Air
  • Through the air it is Josh Downs' show for the Colts: 52 yds a game, open on 51% of routes.
  • Look for Malik Nabers to eat: 6.3 catches and 64 yds a game for the Giants.
  • Cam Taylor-Britt (Colts) locks down his side, giving up open windows on just 40% of routes with 0.1 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • Jonathan Taylor carries the load for the Colts, 15 carries for 65 yds a game at 4.2 a carry, churning off right tackle.
  • Expect a steady diet of Cam Skattebo: 50 yds a game at 3.6 a carry for the Giants, with the holes opening off right tackle.
