The Cardinals will be rolling out backup QB Jacoby Brissett in this week's game, which typically means fewer pass attempts and more rush attempts.At a -4-point disadvantage, the Cardinals are underdogs this week, indicating more of a focus on throwing than their typical game plan.Accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Arizona Cardinals to run on 37.6% of their downs: the lowest frequency among all teams this week.Jacoby Brissett's ground effectiveness has tailed off this year, notching a measly 4.17 adjusted yards-per-carry compared to a 5.42 mark last year.This year, the fierce Tampa Bay Buccaneers run defense has yielded a mere 100.0 adjusted yards per game on the ground to the opposing side: the 10th-fewest in football.
