The model projects the Dolphins as the 8th-most pass-heavy offense among all teams this week with a 61.0% pass rate, accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics.Miami's passing stats last year may be artificially deflated (and running stats propped up a bit) due to playing the most "bad weather" (rain, snow, or 15+ mph wind) games in the league. We should be able to count on some regression with better conditions in this week's game.The Jaguars defense has been a well-known pass funnel last year, inciting opposing QBs to attempt the 10th-most passes in football (35.2 per game) last year.Braxton Berrios rates as one of the most sure-handed receivers in the NFL, hauling in an exceptional 79.5% of passes thrown his way (adjusted for context) last year, checking in at the 93rd percentile among WRs.
