The Steelers are a giant 14-point underdog this week, likely leading to an extreme passing game script.The Pittsburgh Steelers have run the 8th-least plays in the league this year, averaging just 55.0 plays per game.Najee Harris has rushed for 0.00 TDs per game on the ground this year, one of the lowest figures in the league among RBs (1st percentile).The Buffalo Bills defensive ends profile as the 2nd-best unit in the league this year with their run defense.The Buffalo Bills have stacked the box versus opponents on 19.5% of their plays since the start of last season, 9th-most in the NFL. Keeping an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
