The Lions are a heavy 7-point underdog in this week's game, which points towards an extreme passing game script.THE BLITZ projects the Lions to call the 2nd-most total plays among all teams this week with 66.6 plays, accounting for their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and better passing efficiency.Opposing QBs have averaged 40.7 pass attempts per game against the Dallas Cowboys defense this year: 4th-most in football.THE BLITZ projects Kalif Raymond to be a more important option in his team's passing game near the goal line this week (11.5% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (3.4% in games he has played).
