Accounting for their underlying traits and game dynamics, the Lions are expected by the predictive model to run 65.8 offensive plays in this game: the 6th-most on the slate this week.The 5th-most plays in football have been called by the Detroit Lions this year (a monstrous 62.8 per game on average).The Chargers defense has been a notorious pass funnel this year, enticing opposing QBs to attempt the 3rd-most passes in the NFL (41.0 per game) this year.The projections expect Jahmyr Gibbs to earn 5.0 targets in this contest, on average, placing him in the 94th percentile among RBs.When it comes to air yards, Jahmyr Gibbs grades out in the towering 87th percentile among running backs this year, accumulating a whopping 2.0 per game. (because they are often targeted behind the line of scrimmage, this is far more remarkable than it appears since most RBs average negative air yards).
