At a -3-point disadvantage, the Packers are underdogs in this game, implying more of a reliance on passing than their usual approach.Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Packers to pass on 60.4% of their plays: the 8th-highest rate on the slate this week.The passing attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning zero wind) inside this dome, while run volume may drop-off.While Christian Watson has received 9.5% of his offense's red zone targets in games he has played this year, the projections expect him to be a more integral piece of Green Bay's pass game near the end zone in this contest at 19.2%.After accumulating 63.0 air yards per game last year, Christian Watson has been rising this year, currently pacing 95.0 per game.
