The Buccaneers are a massive 10-point favorite in this week's game, which points towards an extreme rushing game script.THE BLITZ projects Mike Evans to be a much smaller part of his team's air attack near the goal line this week (24.3% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (40.0% in games he has played).The Atlanta Falcons cornerbacks project as the 7th-best unit in the league this year in covering receivers.The Tampa Bay Buccaneers offensive line has given their QB just 2.30 seconds before the pass (2nd-worst in football since the start of last season), which has a negative impact on all pass attack metrics across the board.The Atlanta Falcons defense has gotten pressure on opposing QBs a mere 2.43 seconds after the snap (on average), ranking as the 9th-quickest in the NFL since the start of last season.
