Key Factors
Favors Over
The Buffalo Bills will have a new play-caller this year in offensive coordinator Ken Dorsey, and THE BLITZ projects their pass/run mix to skew 2.1% more towards passing than it did last year (in a neutral context).
THE BLITZ projects the Buffalo Bills as the 2nd-most pass-heavy offense in the NFL (in a neutral context) at the moment with a 69.8% pass rate.
THE BLITZ projects this game to see the 3rd-most plays run among all games this week at 135.9 plays, based on the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
Isaiah McKenzie has put up significantly more air yards this season (24.0 per game) than he did last season (12.0 per game).
Isaiah McKenzie's 23.5 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—a volume stat that measures high-value offensive involvement) has been quite a bit higher this year than it was last year at 9.7.
Favors Under
The Bills are a heavy 7-point favorite in this week's game, likely leading to an extreme rushing game script.
The forecast calls for 13-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means lower pass volume (and higher run volume) and worse passing efficiency.
Isaiah McKenzie's receiving reliability have tailed off this year, with his Completion% decreasing from 80.1% to 71.3%.
Isaiah McKenzie has been among the least effective pass-catchers in the league, averaging a lowly 7.34 yards-per-target this year while checking in at the 24th percentile among wide receivers
The Buffalo Bills have faced a stacked the box on just 13.2% of their plays since the start of last season, 7th-least in the league. Keeping an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
