The Cowboys are a 3-point underdog in this week's contest, likely leading to a passing game script.The projections expect the Dallas Cowboys to be the least run-focused team on the slate this week with a 35.4% run rate, accounting for their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics.The passing games of both teams (in terms of both volume and effectiveness) ought to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (meaning zero wind) inside this dome, while ground volume may drop.Rico Dowdle grades out as one of the bottom RBs in the NFL at grinding out extra rushing yardage, averaging a measly 2.42 yards-after-contact this year while checking in at the 8th percentile.When it comes to the defensive tackles' role in stopping the run, Atlanta's collection of DTs has been outstanding this year, profiling as the 5th-best in the NFL.
