The Steelers may pass less this week (and call more rushes) as a result of being be forced to utilize backup quarterback Mason Rudolph.The predictive model expects the Steelers to call the 8th-most offensive plays on the slate this week with 65.1 plays, based on their underlying play style and game dynamics.Calvin Austin III's 43.6 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced metric that measures high-value offensive involvement) has been substantially better this year than it was last year at 32.8.As it relates to cornerbacks in defending pass-catchers, Chicago's group of CBs has been atrocious this year, ranking as the 2nd-worst in football.
