  "account": "John Harbaugh's tenure as the Giants head coach has sparked speculation about the team's offensive strategy for the 2026 season. While it seems likely that Harbaugh will prioritize running the ball, as his previous teams demonstrated, the ultimate decision may hinge on factors beyond his personal preferences. The NFL remains predominantly a passing league, with no team rushing for more yards than it passes for in the 2025 season. However, the balance between passing and rushing can vary, as seen in the Baltimore Ravens' offense under Harbaugh. This past season, the Ravens balanced the run and pass effectively, similar to their 2025 performance. For the Giants, this could mean a more dynamic offense, but the exact mix will likely depend on the development of Jaxson Dart as a passer and the improvement of the offensive line's run-blocking skills.",
