A throwing game script is implied by the Raiders being a -3.5-point underdog in this week's contest.The Raiders rank as the 9th-most pass-oriented offense in the NFL near the goal line (in a neutral context) this year with a 59.6% red zone pass rate.The pass attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (as in zero wind) inside this dome, while ground volume may drop.The Cowboys defense has been a prominent pass funnel this year, inciting opposing quarterbacks to attempt the 7th-most passes in the NFL (36.9 per game) this year.Michael Mayer has been an integral part of his team's offense near the goal line, garnering a Red Zone Target Share of 16.7% this year, which puts him in the 82nd percentile among tight ends.
