The leading projections forecast the Cincinnati Bengals to be the 3rd-most pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 63.7% pass rate, based on their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics.The passing offenses of both teams (in terms of both volume and efficiency) stand to benefit from the calm weather conditions (3-mph wind) being forecasted in this game, while ground volume may drop.The Jaguars defense has been a prominent pass funnel since the start of last season, compelling opposing QBs to attempt the 6th-most passes in football (34.2 per game) since the start of last season.Ja'Marr Chase has run a route on 97.6% of his team's dropbacks since the start of last season, placing him in the 99th percentile when it comes to wide receivers.The predictive model expects Ja'Marr Chase to total 10.0 targets in this week's game, on balance, putting him in the 98th percentile among WRs.
