The predictive model expects the New York Jets to be the 10th-most pass-heavy offense on the slate this week with a 59.7% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.The Jets have played in the most "bad weather" (rain, snow, or 15+ mph wind) games in the NFL since the start of last season, which should lead to increased pass volume, reduced running volume, and improved pass game efficiency when facing better conditions in this game.The weatherman calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind generally means increased pass volume, and reduced ground volume, increased touchdown potential, and better passing effectiveness.Opposing teams have averaged 35.0 pass attempts per game vs. the New England Patriots defense since the start of last season: 9th-most in the league.Opposing QBs have completed passes at the 8th-highest level in the NFL against the Patriots defense since the start of last season (71.8% Adjusted Completion%).
