At a -3-point disadvantage, the Packers are underdogs in this game, implying more of a reliance on passing than their usual approach.Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Packers to pass on 60.4% of their plays: the 8th-highest rate on the slate this week.The passing attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning zero wind) inside this dome, while run volume may drop-off.The Lions defense has given up the 2nd-most receiving touchdowns in the league to WRs: 1.36 per game this year.The Lions linebackers profile as the 2nd-best LB corps in football this year with their run defense.
