Key Factors
Favors Over
At a -7-point disadvantage, the Saints are huge underdogs this week, suggesting much more of a reliance on throwing than their typical approach.
Given their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the New Orleans Saints to pass on 60.7% of their chances: the 4th-highest clip on the slate this week.
Our trusted projections expect this game to see the largest volume of plays run among all games this week at 135.0 plays, accounting for the play styles of each team and game dynamics.
The 8th-largest volume of plays in the NFL have been called by the New Orleans Saints last year (a massive 59.4 per game on average).
The passing games of both teams (in terms of both volume and effectiveness) ought to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (i.e. zero wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may slide.
Favors Under
Last year, the fierce Lions defense has yielded a feeble 66.4% Adjusted Completion Rate to opposing quarterbacks: the 4th-best rate in the league.
The Detroit Lions defense has allowed the 4th-fewest receiving touchdowns in the NFL to RBs: 0.06 per game last year.
