Matchup Breakdown

How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulations
Keys to the Game
  • Cam Skattebo (Giants) vs Fred Warner (49ers) - winner: Fred Warner, holding him to 2.8 yds a carry - nowhere to run.
  • Mike Evans (49ers) vs Andru Phillips (Giants) - winner: Mike Evans, open on 61% of routes for 6.4/8.5, 68 yds a game - the edge through the air.
  • Malik Nabers (Giants) vs Deommodore Lenoir (49ers) - winner: Malik Nabers, open on 59% of routes for 6.8/9.4, 52 yds a game - a matchup to attack.
In the Trenches
  • Don't expect much heat from the 49ers — a 50% win rate yields only 3.4 sacks and 11.0 pressures a game, Nick Bosa (2.4 sacks, 4.6 pressures a game) leading the way.
  • The 49ers' quarterback should have time; the Giants win just 50% of reps for 6.0 sacks a game, with Abdul Carter (3.5 sacks, 9.0 pressures a game) setting the tone.
Through the Air
  • Mike Evans headlines the 49ers' receiving corps — 6.4 catches for 68 yds a game on 61% separation.
  • The Giants will live and die with Malik Nabers, who comes open 59% of the time (52 yds a game).
  • Receivers won't find much room against Dre Greenlaw (49ers): 37% separation allowed, good for 0.1 INT a game.
On the Ground
  • On the ground, the 49ers ride Christian McCaffrey: 16 carries, 62 yds a game (3.8 a carry), with the holes opening to the right side.
  • Cam Skattebo is the workhorse for the Giants, churning 41 yds a game at 2.8 a carry against a stingy front.
