Key Factors

Favors Over

The Falcons may take to the air less in this week's game (and call more carries) given that they be forced to use backup quarterback Cooper Rush.
A passing game script is indicated by the Falcons being a -6.5-point underdog this week.
Accounting for the game dynamics and the underlying approaches of each team, this game is predicted by the predictive model to have 129.3 total plays run: the 5th-most on the slate this week.
The Steelers defense has been a well-known pass funnel last year, causing opposing QBs to attempt the 5th-most passes in the NFL (35.8 per game) last year.
As it relates to pass protection (and the strong effect it has on all air attack stats), the offensive line of the Atlanta Falcons profiles as the 8th-best in the league last year.

Favors Under

At the moment, the least pass-oriented offense in the NFL (56.8% in a neutral context) according to our trusted projection set is the Atlanta Falcons.
The Falcons have played in the 2nd-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in football last year, which should lead to lower pass volume, increased running volume, and reduced pass game performance when facing windier weather this week.
Jahan Dotson grades out as one of the worst WRs in the league last year, averaging a lowly 1.1 adjusted receptions per game while ranking in the 16th percentile among wide receivers.
Jahan Dotson is positioned as one of the least sure-handed receivers in football, catching a mere 53.8% of balls thrown his way (adjusted for context) last year, grading out in the 22nd percentile among wide receivers
