At a -11.5-point disadvantage, the Vikings are enormous underdogs in this week's contest, implying much more of a focus on throwing than their normal approach.Based on their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, our trusted projections expect the Vikings to run on 39.5% of their chances: the 5th-lowest clip on the slate this week.Based on their underlying play style and game dynamics, the Vikings are expected by the projection model to run just 63.3 offensive plays in this contest: the 7th-fewest among all teams this week.The 3rd-smallest volume of plays in the league have been called by the Vikings this year (only 52.1 per game on average).The air attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the still weather conditions (2-mph wind) being called for in this game, while rush volume may go down.
