At a -7.5-point disadvantage, the Falcons are enormous underdogs in this game, indicating much more of a reliance on moving the ball through the air than their usual approach.Accounting for their underlying play style and matchup dynamics, the model projects the Falcons to run on 38.8% of their plays: the 3rd-lowest frequency among all teams this week.This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, increased pass volume, increased TD potential, and better passing effectiveness.In this game, Kirk Cousins is expected by the predictive model to accumulate the fewest carries out of all QBs with 1.6. Kirk Cousins is not a mobile QB and has accounted for a measly 3.1% of his offense's rush attempts this year, ranking him in the 8th percentile when it comes to QBs.
