Right now, the 8th-most run-focused team in football near the end zone (46.5% in a neutral context) according to the projections is the Detroit Lions.The projections expect the Lions to run the 4th-fewest plays on offense on the slate this week with 62.8 plays, given their underlying propensities and game dynamics.The forecast calls for 12-mph wind in this game. High wind generally means lower pass volume (and higher run volume) and lessened passing efficiency.This year, the formidable Eagles defense has allowed a measly 66.0% Adjusted Completion Rate to opposing offenses: the 4th-smallest rate in football.This year, the stout Eagles defense has yielded a meager 0.44 TDs through the air per game to opposing WRs: the 2nd-lowest rate in the NFL.
