The predictive model expects the Philadelphia Eagles offensive approach to skew 1.0% more towards passing than it did last season (adjusted for context) with offensive coordinator Brian Johnson now calling the plays.The weather report calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind typically means increased pass volume, and lower ground volume, increased touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.This week, A.J. Brown is anticipated by the predictive model to place in the 95th percentile when it comes to wide receivers with 9.9 targets.With a RATE1-RATE2 point rise in WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced stat that examines high-value offensive usage) from last year to this one, A.J. Brown has been more prominently relied on in his offense's passing game.In regards to protecting the passer (and the strong impact it has on all air attack stats), the O-line of the Philadelphia Eagles ranks as the 2nd-best in the league this year.
