The Bears are an enormous 9.5-point underdog this week, likely creating an extreme passing game script.THE BLITZ projects this game to see the least plays run out of all the games this week at 123.7 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.The Chicago Bears have run the 5th-least plays in the NFL this year, totaling just 54.8 plays per game.The Miami Dolphins have stacked the box against opponents on 21.4% of their plays since the start of last season, 5th-most in football. Bringing an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
