FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE OVER:
  • THE BLITZ projects the Minnesota Vikings offense to be the 7th-quickest paced team in football (in a neutral context) right now, averaging 26.83 seconds per play.
  • This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, higher pass volume, higher touchdown potential, and better passing efficiency.

  • Irv Smith has accrued a monstrous 30.0 air yards per game this year: 88th percentile among tight ends.
  • Irv Smith's 28.6 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—a volume stat that measures high-value offensive involvement) puts him in the company of the best in the league: 86th percentile for TEs.

  • FACTORS THAT FAVOR THE UNDER:
  • The Vikings are an enormous 7.5-point favorite in this week's contest, likely leading to an extreme rushing game script.
  • Opposing QBs have averaged 27.2 pass attempts per game versus the Chicago Bears defense this year: least in the NFL.
  • The Minnesota Vikings offensive line profiles as the 7th-worst in the league this year in protecting the quarterback, which has a harmful impact on all pass attack statistics across the board.
  • Irv Smith has been among the worst possession receivers in football among TEs, completing a mere 51.7% of passes thrown his way this year, ranking in the 12th percentile.
  • The Chicago Bears pass defense has given up the 4th-lowest Completion% in the league (65.9%) to TEs since the start of last season (65.9%).
