The leading projections forecast the Steelers to call the 9th-most plays on offense on the slate this week with 65.6 plays, accounting for their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.The air attacks of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) ought to benefit from the still weather conditions (2-mph wind) being forecasted in this game, while run volume may drop-off.Our trusted projections expect DK Metcalf to accrue 8.3 targets in this week's contest, on balance, placing him in the 91st percentile when it comes to WRs.DK Metcalf's 68.5 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced metric that examines high-value offensive usage) has been notably better this season than it was last season at 61.0.When it comes to linebackers in covering pass-catchers, Cincinnati's collection of LBs has been lousy this year, projecting as the 4th-worst in the league.
