With a 7-point advantage, the Patriots are heavily favored in this week's game, implying much more of a focus on running than their standard approach.The projections expect the Patriots to be the least pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 53.4% pass rate, given their underlying propensities and matchup dynamics.Based on their underlying play style and game dynamics, the Patriots are expected by the predictive model to call just 62.8 offensive plays in this game: the lowest number among all teams this week.After accumulating 64.0 air yards per game last season, Stefon Diggs has been a disappointment this season, currently averaging 56.0 per game.With a terrific rate of 0.12 rushing TDs per game (99th percentile), Stefon Diggs ranks as one of the leading rushing TD-scorers in the NFL among wide receivers and tight ends last year.
