A throwing game script is implied by the Saints being a -3.5-point underdog in this game.The predictive model expects the Saints to run the most total plays among all teams this week with 68.5 plays, given their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.Juwan Johnson has been less involved as a potential target this year (84.3% Route Participation Rate in games he has played) than he did last year (66.6%).The model projects Juwan Johnson to accumulate 6.8 targets in this week's contest, on balance, putting him in the 91st percentile among tight ends.
