Based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics, the Ravens are predicted by the model to run 66.4 total plays in this game: the 8th-highest number among all teams this week.This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, higher pass volume, higher touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.Derrick Henry has accrued a staggering 2.0 air yards per game this year: 85th percentile among RBs. (This may not sound like very many, but most RBs average negative air yards considering most of their targets come behind the line of scrimmage).Derrick Henry has been one of the best running backs in the NFL at grinding out extra yardage in the passing game, averaging a remarkable 8.44 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) since the start of last season while ranking in the 89th percentile.The Vikings linebackers grade out as the 9th-worst group of LBs in football this year in covering pass-catchers.
