An extreme passing game script is implied by the Steelers being a heavy -7.5-point underdog this week.Accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Steelers to pass on 65.3% of their downs: the 2nd-greatest frequency on the slate this week.The leading projections forecast this game to see the 3rd-highest number of plays run on the slate this week at 133.9 plays, given the traits of each team and game dynamics.The passing games of both teams (as it relates to both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (as in zero wind) inside this dome, while run volume may decline.DK Metcalf's 64.4 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced metric that measures high-value offensive involvement) puts him in the company of the league leaders: 91st percentile for wide receivers.
