Accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics, our trusted projections expect the Chiefs to pass on 62.6% of their opportunities: the 3rd-greatest rate among all teams this week.Still weather conditions (like the 0-mph wind being forecasted in this game) generally lead to better passing effectiveness, increased touchdown potential, increased pass volume, and reduced rush volume.The Chargers defense has been something of pass funnel since the start of last season, allowing opposing offenses to attempt the 10th-most passes in the NFL (34.7 per game) since the start of last season.Noah Gray ranks in the 77th percentile when it comes to TEs this year with a massive 9.2% of his team's air yards accumulated.When it comes to protecting the passer (and the strong effect it has on all passing offense statistics), the O-line of the Chiefs ranks as the 7th-best in the league since the start of last season.
