Calm weather conditions (like the 4-mph wind being projected in this game) generally lead to increased passing effectiveness, higher touchdown potential, higher air attack volume, and reduced run volume.The Steelers defense has been a bit of pass funnel this year, inciting opposing quarterbacks to attempt the 3rd-most passes in the NFL (41.0 per game) this year.Jordan Love's 69.5% Adjusted Completion% this year reflects a noteworthy boost in his throwing precision over last year's 65.9% mark.Opposing teams have completed passes at the 8th-highest clip in the NFL vs. the Steelers defense this year (74.6% Adjusted Completion%).As it relates to linebackers in covering receivers, Pittsburgh's unit has been lousy this year, grading out as the 7th-worst in football.
