The projections expect the Commanders as the 8th-least pass-oriented team among all teams this week with a 54.9% pass rate, given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.The Washington Commanders have played in the 10th-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in the NFL last year, which should result in lower pass volume, increased running volume, and reduced passing attack efficiency when facing windier conditions in this week's game.In regards to air yards, Brian Robinson grades out in the paltry 11th percentile among running backs last year, totaling just -3.0 per game.Last year, the imposing Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense has surrendered the 6th-least adjusted yards-per-target in the NFL to opposing running backs: a paltry 5.2 yards.The Buccaneers pass defense has been quite strong when opposing RBs have gotten into space, surrendering an average of 7.34 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) last year: the 5th-fewest in the NFL.
