The Washington Commanders will have a new play-caller this year in offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, and the projections expect their pass/run mix to tilt 11.3% more towards passing than it did last year (adjusted for context).The model projects the Washington Commanders to be the 5th-most pass-oriented offense in the league (in a neutral context) at the moment with a 65.4% pass rate.The weather report calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind usually means higher pass volume, and lower ground volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.Curtis Samuel's 84.8% Adjusted Completion Rate this season shows a a substantial gain in his receiving ability over last season's 74.2% rate.Since the start of last season, the weak Chicago Bears pass defense has given up a colossal 68.6% Adjusted Completion Rate vs. opposing wide receivers: the 6th-biggest rate in the league.
