From the article

Nabers caught 12 passes for 165 yards last week, and Likely added six catches for 99 yards and a touchdown, a reminder that elite pass-catching talent can produce even with uncertainty at quarterback. Those two will remain the focal points of this passing game, especially given the Giants' inability to run the ball. Nabers has been the steadiest piece of the offense, adding 121 receiving yards against Washington in Week 5 to go along with last week's 165.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Nabers' 12-165 last week; positioned for volume with McCarthy's downfield aggression.

Nabers caught 12 passes for 165 yards last week and added 121 receiving yards against Washington in Week 5, demonstrating he is the steadiest piece of the Giants' offense. With J.J. McCarthy bringing more mobility and a greater willingness to push the ball downfield, Nabers will remain a focal point of the passing game. He's the kind of receiver who can take advantage of an aggressive secondary like Houston's, which ranks 27th in passing yards allowed (265 per game) and 26th in completions of 25-plus yards allowed (13).
