At a -3.5-point disadvantage, the Browns are underdogs this week, implying more of a focus on passing than their normal game plan.The predictive model expects the Cleveland Browns offense to be the 6th-fastest paced team in the league (in a neutral context) at the moment, averaging 27.22 seconds per play.The pass games 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 rush volume may slide.The model projects David Njoku to be a more integral piece of his offense's pass attack near the end zone in this week's contest (19.6% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (6.2% in games he has played).When it comes to the defensive tackles' role in stopping the run, Minnesota's collection of DTs has been phenomenal this year, ranking as the 3rd-best in the league.
