This week's spread suggests a passing game script for the Colts, who are -4-point underdogs.The passing offenses of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning zero wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may slide.Opposing QBs have averaged 35.9 pass attempts per game against the San Francisco 49ers defense this year: 10th-most in football.While Michael Pittman has accounted for 15.3% of his team's red zone targets in games he has played this year, the predictive model expects him to be a more integral piece of Indianapolis's passing offense near the end zone in this week's contest at 20.3%.Michael Pittman ranks in the 77th percentile for WR WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced stat that examines high-value offensive involvement) with a staggering 52.4 mark this year.
