Christian Kirk's sure-handedness have tailed off this season, with his Completion% decreasing from 72.6% to 67.1%.
The Detroit Lions pass defense has been quite strong when opposing wide receivers have gotten into space, surrendering an average of 4.23 yards-after-the-catch this year: the 10th-least in football.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have been faced with a stacked the box on just 11.1% of their plays since the start of last season, 3rd-least in football. Keeping an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
The Jacksonville Jaguars have utilized motion in their offense on 33.0% of their plays since the start of last season (8th-least in football), which usually makes an offense more predictable and less effective.
