The Cardinals will have a new play-caller this season in head coach Jonathan Gannon, and the leading projections forecast their pass/run mix to tilt 5.9% more towards rushing than it did last season (in a neutral context).Our trusted projections expect the Arizona Cardinals to be the 3rd-least pass-heavy offense in the league (context-neutralized) at the present time with a 55.4% pass rate.Our trusted projections expect the Cardinals to call the 4th-fewest plays on offense among all teams this week with 60.8 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.The Cardinals have played in the 5th-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in football since the start of last season, which ought to lead to reduced pass volume, higher running volume, and reduced passing attack results when facing windier conditions this week.Marquise Brown has been among the bottom WRs in the NFL at picking up extra yardage, averaging just 3.00 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) this year while grading out in the 24th percentile.
