At a -8.5-point disadvantage, the Buccaneers are heavy underdogs in this week's game, suggesting much more of a focus on throwing than their typical approach.Our trusted projections expect the Buccaneers to be the least run-oriented offense on the slate this week with a 37.0% run rate, given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.The projections expect Baker Mayfield to garner 3.6 rush attempts in this week's game, on average: the 2nd-fewest out of all QBs.When it comes to the safeties' role in defending against the run, Kansas City's unit has been great this year, ranking as the 2nd-best in the league.
