Based on the game dynamics and the underlying play styles of each team, this game is predicted by the projection model to have 138.3 plays on offense run: the highest number on the slate this week.The passing offenses of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) ought to benefit from the still weather conditions (3-mph wind) being called for in this game, while ground volume may drop-off.The Denver Broncos O-line grades out as the 2nd-best in football this year in pass protection, which has a positive impact on all pass game metrics across the board.Marvin Mims's 10.75 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) this year represents an impressive boost in his efficiency in picking up extra yardage over last year's 6.6% rate.The Cleveland Browns pass defense has displayed weak efficiency vs. wide receivers this year, surrendering 9.32 adjusted yards-per-target to the position: the most in football.
