The Titans are a 3.5-point underdog in this week's contest, indicating a passing game script.At the moment, the 7th-most pass-oriented offense in the league in the red zone (59.9% adjusted for context) according to the model is the Titans.When talking about air yards, Tony Pollard grades out in the towering 81st percentile among running backs this year, accruing a remarkable 1.0 per game. (because they are often targeted behind the line of scrimmage, this is much more impressive than it appears since most RBs wind up with negative air yards).Tony Pollard's possession skills have gotten better this season, with his Adjusted Completion% increasing from 74.3% to 81.7%.This year, the shaky Chiefs defense has been gouged for a colossal 74.9% Adjusted Completion Rate to opposing quarterbacks: the 2nd-largest rate in the NFL.
