#467/468 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Under 47.5, NY Giants @ Seattle, Sunday at 4:00 PM ET - Seattle has changed their offensive philosophy over the last few weeks. Pete Carroll is trying to take some pressure off Russell Wilson and run the ball much more often. That’s what Carroll has always preferred anyway. Now that RB’s Carson & Hyde are both healthy, they’ve run the ball 30+ times each of the last 2 weeks after running it 30 times just twice in their first 8 games. The Seahawks have been successful running the ball as well with 241 yards on the ground the last 2 games. Seattle ranked #1 in drop back rate (almost 70%) over the first 10 weeks but the last 2 games they’ve ranked 15th and 20th in that category. Seattle has also been very deliberate on offense the last 2 weeks as they are dead last in pace over those 2 games. With running the ball more often and slowing down their pace, they are also trying to give their defense, who has faced more snaps than any other team in the NFL, a break. It’s working as the Seattle stop unit has allowed just 23, 21, and 17 points the last 3 weeks. They should have success here vs a NYG offense that ranks 30th in scoring at 19.5 PPG and will probably be without their QB as Daniel Jones who is dealing with a hamstring issue. Colt McCoy will most likely get the start for the Giants and he is more of a game manager than a big play QB. Even with Jones under center, NYG has topped 21 points just 1 time in their last 6 games. Defensively it’s another story for the Giants. They are solid. This is a top 10 defense (allowing 340 YPG) that over the last 6 games they’ve held their opponents to just 20 PPG. The Giants have gone UNDER the total 6 of the last 7 times they’ve been a road underdog and we expect another low scoring game here.
