With a 7.5-point advantage, the Packers are heavily favored this week, suggesting much more of an emphasis on rushing than their usual game plan.Given their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, our trusted projections expect the Packers to pass on 52.6% of their chances: the 5th-lowest clip on the slate this week.At the present time, the 5th-most sluggish paced team in the NFL (in a neutral context) according to the projections is the Packers.The weather report calls for 18-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means reduced pass volume (and higher run volume) and decreased passing efficiency.When it comes to linebackers in defending pass-catchers, New York's collection of LBs has been outstanding this year, ranking as the 8th-best in the league.
