The Tampa Bay Buccaneers feature a new play-caller this year in offensive coordinator Dave Canales, and the model projects their pass/run mix to skew 5.0% more towards rushing than it did last year (context-neutralized).Based on their underlying propensities and game dynamics, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers are anticipated by the projections to run just 60.0 offensive plays in this game: the lowest number on the slate this week.This week, Baker Mayfield is forecasted by the predictive model to total the 9th-fewest pass attempts among all quarterbacks with 34.0. The San Francisco 49ers have intercepted 1.41 passes per game this year, grading out as the best defense in the league by this stat.As it relates to linebackers in covering pass-catchers, San Francisco's collection of LBs has been exceptional this year, grading out as the 2nd-best in the NFL.
