At a -5-point disadvantage, the Panthers are underdogs this week, indicating more of a focus on throwing than their normal approach.The projections expect this game to see the 5th-most plays run on the slate this week at 131.3 plays, based on the traits of each team and game dynamics.The Panthers have run the 2nd-most plays in the league last year, totaling a colossal 61.2 plays per game.The passing attacks of both teams (including both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (i.e. no wind) inside this dome, while run volume may drop-off.In regards to air yards, Miles Sanders grades out in the towering 81st percentile among RBs last year, totaling a staggering 1.0 per game. (because they are often targeted behind the line of scrimmage, this is much more remarkable than it sounds since most RBs average negative air yards).
