FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:

With a 3-point advantage, the Commanders are favored this week, suggesting more of a focus on running than their usual approach.Based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the Washington Commanders to pass on 50.6% of their opportunities: the 3rd-lowest clip among all teams this week.Washington's passing stats since the start of last season may be artificially propped up a bit (and rushing stats too low) on account of playing the 10th-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in the NFL. We figure to be able to count on some regression with windier conditions in this game.In regards to air yards, Austin Ekeler ranks in the lowly 9th percentile among RBs since the start of last season, averaging just -3.0 per game.With a weak 73.7% Adjusted Catch% (20th percentile) since the start of last season, Austin Ekeler rates among the worst possession receivers in the NFL when it comes to running backs.
