Accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics, the predictive model expects the Los Angeles Chargers to pass on 60.5% of their opportunities: the 7th-greatest clip among all teams this week.Calm weather conditions (like the 0-mph wind being predicted in this game) typically mean better passing effectiveness, increased touchdown potential, increased air attack volume, and lower ground volume.This year, the poor Denver Broncos pass defense has conceded a whopping 68.0% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing WRs: the 8th-biggest rate in football.As it relates to linebackers in defending pass-catchers, Denver's unit has been lousy this year, profiling as the worst in the league.
