The Minnesota Vikings may rely on the pass game less in this week's game (and call more carries) since they be forced to start backup QB Jaren Hall.Accounting for their underlying play style and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Vikings to run on 38.2% of their chances: the 5th-lowest clip on the slate this week.The projections expect this game to have the 4th-lowest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 127.9 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.The passing games of both teams (in terms of both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning no wind) inside this dome, while run volume may decline.The model projects Alexander Mattison to be a less important option in his offense's run game this week (19.2% projected Carry Share) than he has been this year (53.0% in games he has played).
