GMEN HQ's Michael Haney argues that offensive coordinator Matt Nagy is revitalizing the New York Giants' offense with more downfield aggression than he previously showed with the Kansas City Chiefs. Since J.J. McCarthy took over as starting quarterback, Nagy's scheme has dialed up frequent explosive plays, positioning the Giants ninth in offensive EPA per play since Week 6.

Haney credits Nagy's creative alignments featuring wide receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely for creating favorable matchups in recent wins against Arizona and Houston. The writer highlights that the Giants are currently pushing the ball downfield on 14.3% of pass attempts, standing as the only NFL team with more than four games scoring 27 or more points.
