The Seahawks are a 6.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely leading to a running game script.Based on their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the Seahawks to pass on 62.8% of their downs: the 2nd-greatest rate on the slate this week.Still weather conditions (like the 3-mph wind being projected in this game) generally mean increased passing effectiveness, increased touchdown potential, increased air volume, and reduced run volume.The Philadelphia Eagles defense has been a glaring pass funnel this year, inciting opposing quarterbacks to attempt the most passes in the league (41.6 per game) this year.The projections expect D.K. Metcalf to accrue 8.6 targets in this contest, on balance, placing him in the 92nd percentile when it comes to wide receivers.
