Low wind usually means higher pass volume, and lower ground volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.Sam Howell has been among the leading quarterbacks in the NFL this year, averaging an outstanding 248.0 adjusted yards per game while grading out in the 76th percentile.This year, the porous Chicago Bears defense has conceded the most adjusted yards-per-target in football to opposing squads: a staggering 9.11 yards.
