[QUOTE="Texas9erFan, post: 401478, member: 5576"] I can't speak to individual match-ups as don't pay close enough attention to individual play. I tend to look at the big picture of how a team is playing and the big stats. The Giants have the 25th rated D against the run. You can bet the Niners, rated #6 in rushing, will be running hard as it's their strength. Their running game will consume the clock giving Eli and company relatively little time on offense. The Giants D is rated 17th against the pass. Not great but not bad... average. The Niner passing game is rated 30th. Not very good as far as total yardage goes but their not being picked off so a short passing game, which has been their MO all season is to be expected. The Niner O generally splits their play calling about 50/50 between run vs. pass. Of the 18 TDs scored on offense, 8 were rushing TDs while 10 were passing. On the other hand, the Niners D is rated #1 against the run and #22 against the pass so it's safe to assume that Eli will need to pass the ball to win. The Niners have allowed 11 passing TDs this season and ZERO rushing TDs. And with the limited time the Giants will have on the field, they'll need to score on every drive. Turnovers and stalled drives will kill them. The Niners are 8th in total points scored at 206 while the Giants are 13th at 198. Pretty close but I would venture to say that the Niner running game will be far more effective than the Giants passing game. Especially at the end of the game as the Giants D gets tired. [/QUOTE]
