The model projects the Philadelphia Eagles offensive blueprint to lean 3.2% more towards the passing attack than it did last season (adjusted for context) with offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo now calling the plays.Given their underlying propensities and game dynamics, the Philadelphia Eagles are expected by the predictive model to call 65.8 total plays in this contest: the 6th-most among all teams this week.The 3rd-largest volume of plays in the league have been run by the Eagles last year (a whopping 60.1 per game on average).The leading projections forecast Saquon Barkley to accumulate 2.8 targets in this game, on balance, putting him in the 81st percentile among running backs.As it relates to air yards, Saquon Barkley ranks in the lofty 98th percentile among running backs last year, averaging a massive 6.0 per game. (because they are often targeted behind the line of scrimmage, that is much more remarkable than it sounds since most RBs wind up with negative air yards).
