A passing game script is suggested by the Vikings being a -5-point underdog in this week's game.Accounting for their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, the predictive model expects the Minnesota Vikings to pass on 60.5% of their opportunities: the 7th-highest rate on the slate this week.The predictive model expects the Minnesota Vikings to be the 2nd-most pass-focused team in the NFL near the goal line (adjusted for context) right now with a 63.5% red zone pass rate.The pass games of both teams (in terms of both volume and efficiency) stand to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (as in no wind) inside this dome, while run volume may decline.The Dallas Cowboys defense has been a glaring pass funnel this year, allowing opposing QBs to attempt the 6th-most passes in the league (38.0 per game) this year.
