With a 6.5-point advantage, the Steelers are favored in this week's contest, implying more of a reliance on rushing than their normal approach.Based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the leading projections forecast the Steelers to run on 46.8% of their chances: the 2nd-greatest rate among all teams this week.Our trusted projections expect the Steelers to call the 7th-most plays on offense on the slate this week with 66.0 plays, accounting for their underlying play style and game dynamics.Windy weather conditions (like the 14-mph being projected in this game) usually cause decreased passing effectiveness, reduced pass volume, and higher run volume.After taking on 16.3% of his offense's run game usage last year, Jaylen Warren has played a bigger part in the running game this year, now sitting at 33.2%.
