Key Factors

Favors Over

The predictive model expects the Rams as the 5th-most pass-oriented offense among all teams this week with a 60.1% pass rate, given their underlying traits and matchup dynamics.
The 49ers defense has been a well-known pass funnel last year, compelling opposing offenses to attempt the 8th-most passes in football (34.1 per game) last year.
With a sizeable 54.9% Route% (89th percentile) last year, Kyren Williams has been as one of the pass-catching running backs with the most usage in the NFL.
In regards to air yards, Kyren Williams grades out in the towering 98th percentile among RBs last year, accruing a colossal 8.0 per game. (considering most of their targets come behind the line of scrimmage, that is much more notable than it appears since most RBs wind up with negative air yards).
With a terrific 15.0 adjusted yards per game through the air (77th percentile) last year, Kyren Williams places among the top running backs in the pass game in the league.

Favors Under

The Rams are a 3.5-point favorite in this week's contest, likely creating a rushing game script.
The model projects the Rams to call the 9th-fewest offensive plays on the slate this week with 62.5 plays, based on their underlying propensities and game dynamics.
Los Angeles's passing stats last year may be artificially too high (and running stats decreased) in light of playing the 10th-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in football. We should be able to count on some correction with windier weather in this week's contest.
With a weak 0.00 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) (3rd percentile) last year, Kyren Williams stands among the top RB receiving threats in football in the open field.
