Key Factors

Favors Over

A passing game script is suggested by the Colts being a -3-point underdog this week.
The projections expect the Colts as the 8th-least pass-centric offense among all teams this week with a 55.4% pass rate, accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.
With regard to a defense's effect on pace, the Colts defense has allowed the opposing side to play 10th-quickest in football (context-neutralized) last year at 28.48 seconds per snap.
This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, higher pass volume, higher touchdown potential, and better passing effectiveness.
The Ravens defense has been something of pass funnel last year, causing opposing QBs to attempt the 2nd-most passes in the NFL (36.2 per game) last year.

Favors Under

While Alec Pierce has been responsible for 18.3% of his team's targets in games he has played last year, the projections expect him to be a much smaller piece of Indianapolis's passing offense in this week's contest at 10.0%.
Alec Pierce rates as one of the most hard-handed receivers in the league, catching just 55.9% of passes thrown his way (adjusted for context) last year, checking in at the 13th percentile among WRs
With a poor 0.00 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) (1st percentile) last year, Alec Pierce places among the leading WRs in the league in football in space.
The Baltimore cornerbacks grade out as the 3rd-best CB corps in the league last year in covering pass-catchers.
