The Washington Commanders will have a new play-caller this year in offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, and the projections expect their pass/run mix to tilt 11.3% more towards passing than it did last year (adjusted for context).Our trusted projections expect the Commanders to be the 5th-least run-heavy offense in the league (context-neutralized) at the moment with a 34.6% run rate.Based on the game dynamics and the underlying traits of each team, this contest is forecasted by the projections to see only 121.7 offensive plays called: the 2nd-fewest out of all the games this week.The weather report calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind usually means higher pass volume, and lower ground volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.Antonio Gibson has been a much smaller piece of his team's run game this year (14.1% Carry Share in games he has been on the field) than he was last year (32.7%).
