Key Factors

Favors Over

THE BLITZ projects the Atlanta Falcons as the most run-oriented team in the NFL near the goal line (in a neutral context) at the present time with a 56.0% red zone run rate.
Cordarrelle Patterson has received 40.4% of his team's red zone carries this year, placing him in the 79th percentile among RBs.
The Atlanta Falcons offensive line profiles as the best in the NFL this year at blocking for rushers.
Cordarrelle Patterson has run for 0.56 TDs per game on the ground this year (on average), one of the highest figures in the league among RBs (88th percentile).
The New Orleans Saints have stacked the box versus opponents on just 13.5% of their plays since the start of last season, 9th-least in the NFL. Choosing not to position an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves pass defense at the expense of run-stopping.

Favors Under

The Falcons are a 5.5-point underdog in this week's contest, likely creating a passing game script.
THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 3rd-lowest volume of plays run among all games this week at 126.0 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
The Atlanta Falcons have run the least plays in football this year, averaging a mere 52.7 plays per game.

The Atlanta Falcons have gone up against a stacked the box on 17.6% of their plays since the start of last season, 10th-most in the league. Bringing an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
