The projections expect the Patriots offensive strategy to tilt 2.4% more towards passing than it did last year (in a neutral context) with offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels now calling the plays.While Rhamondre Stevenson has received 57.5% of his team's run game usage in games he has played last year, the leading projections forecast him to be a much smaller piece of New England's running game in this contest at 33.0%.As it relates to the linebackers' role in run defense, Las Vegas's unit has been exceptional last year, grading out as the 2nd-best in the NFL.
