The Packers are a 3.5-point underdog in this week's contest, likely creating a passing game script.THE BLITZ projects the Green Bay Packers as the 8th-least run-oriented team among all teams this week with a 37.3% run rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.A.J. Dillon's ground effectiveness (3.85 yards per carry) has been some of the worst in the NFL this year (20th percentile among running backs).The Green Bay Packers have gone no-huddle on a measly 2.7% of their play-calls outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (5th-least in football).
