Scheme ConfidenceTier 2Partial Continuity
John Harbaugh returns as head coach but brings in two new coordinators with strong empirical fingerprints. Matt Nagy's offensive system should translate well - his career averages show 59% pass rate and 73% shotgun usage, which aligns reasonably with the Giants' 2025 tendencies under Mike Kafka (53% pass, 77% shotgun). Dennard Wilson's defensive approach represents more continuity than change, as his 24% blitz rate closely matches Shane Bowen's 30% from last season. Both coordinators have substantial playcalling data driving high confidence in their projected schemes, though some adjustment period is expected as Harbaugh integrates their systems.

Key Concerns
▸Zone coverage ability sits at just 15 out of 100, creating a fundamental mismatch with Wilson's zone-heavy defensive scheme.
▸Multiple offensive line starters grade below the 35th percentile, with pass protection and run blocking both severely compromised.
▸Tight end versatility scores 2 out of 100, limiting Nagy's ability to deploy the varied personnel packages his West Coast system typically features.
▸Decision making at quarterback grades at 28 out of 100, potentially undermining the timing and precision Nagy's offense requires.
▸Several key contributors including Jon Runyan, John Michael Schmitz, and Micah McFadden have expiring contracts.
