THE BLITZ projects this game to see the smallest volume of plays run among all games this week at 125.8 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.The San Francisco 49ers have called the least plays in the NFL this year, totaling a measly 56.6 plays per game.The weather forecast calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind usually means increased pass volume, increased touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.THE BLITZ projects Christian McCaffrey to be much less involved in his offense's rushing attack this week (42.2% projected Carry Share) than he has been this year (62.0% in games he has played).The San Francisco 49ers have been faced with a stacked the box on 18.6% of their plays since the start of last season, most in the NFL. Keeping an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
