Accounting for their underlying traits and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Pittsburgh Steelers to pass on 60.4% of their opportunities: the 8th-greatest frequency among all teams this week.The pass games of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the still weather conditions (4-mph wind) being projected in this game, while rush volume may slide.Opposing QBs have averaged 42.5 pass attempts per game versus the Green Bay Packers defense this year: most in the league.In this week's game, Kenneth Gainwell is expected by the projections to finish in the 91st percentile when it comes to RBs with 4.4 targets.Kenneth Gainwell has been a more integral piece of his team's passing game this year (14.1% Target Share in games he has been on the field) than he was last year (5.0%).
