STACKED’s take
McCarthy's elite deep ball rate and yards per attempt favor strong performance vs. Eagles' weak pass rush.
In his last two games for the Giants, J.J. McCarthy was QB12 and QB23 in weekly fantasy scoring, though the QB23 finish doesn't reflect his level of play. Among 40 qualifying passers, McCarthy ranks first in yards per attempt, first in aDOT (18.4%, by a mile the highest deep ball rate), 17th in passing success rate, fourth in catchable target rate, and first in hero throw rate. Philadelphia's pass defense has shown cracks, allowing the 12th-highest yards per attempt, eighth-highest EPA per dropback, and 17th in passing touchdown rate over the last five games. Philly has also given up the tenth-highest passing success rate and third-most deep passing yards, with the third-lowest pressure rate and second-lowest quick pressure rate. McCarthy should have time to cook again this week.
