The Saints are a huge 14.5-point underdog in this game, likely creating an extreme passing game script.Our trusted projections expect the Saints to be the least run-centric offense on the slate this week with a 42.4% run rate, based on their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.The pass attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm weather conditions (4-mph wind) being forecasted in this game, while run volume may drop.Jamaal Williams's 13.0 adjusted rushing yards per game this season reflects a remarkable regression in his rushing ability over last season's 24.0 figure.The Green Bay Packers defense owns the 8th-best efficiency against opposing running games this year, yielding just 4.29 adjusted yards-per-carry (YPC).
