The New York Giants will begin the 2019 season down one generation talent, but the quality remaining should see a boost in production. Their stats tell a story of elevation in the absence of Beckham Jr., and while his influence was impactful and will be missed, options like Evan Engram will benefit.
In 2018, OBJ missed the last four games of the season, and that small sample size offers some interesting data that can either be considered or brushed under the rug. Now, 4 games don’t scream accuracy, but when nearly every player saw an uptick in production and the team averaged more points per game, it’s worth looking into.
