The leading projections forecast the New Orleans Saints as the 8th-least run-centric team among all teams this week with a 40.2% run rate, accounting for their underlying play style and matchup dynamics.The pass attacks of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (as in no wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may drop-off.Our trusted projections expect Derek Carr to accumulate 1.7 carries in this contest, on average: the 2nd-fewest out of all QBs.Taking on just 3.9% of his offense's run game usage this year (13th percentile when it comes to QBs), Derek Carr's immobility makes him no threat on the ground.With a lousy total of 4.0 adjusted yards per game on the ground (8th percentile), Derek Carr rates among the weakest rushing quarterbacks in the league this year.
