At a -7-point disadvantage, the Dolphins are enormous underdogs in this week's contest, suggesting much more of a focus on throwing than their normal approach.Based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Miami Dolphins to pass on 62.7% of their plays: the 3rd-greatest clip among all teams this week.At the present time, the 7th-most pass-centric offense in football in the red zone (59.7% adjusted for context) according to the projection model is the Dolphins.The air attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and efficiency) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning no wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may drop-off.This year, the poor Falcons defense has allowed a whopping 0.33 TDs through the air per game to opposing RBs: the 5th-biggest rate in the league.
