At a -7.5-point disadvantage, the Jaguars are massive underdogs in this week's game, suggesting much more of a focus on moving the ball through the air than their normal game plan.Accounting for their underlying strategic approach and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Jacksonville Jaguars to pass on 61.6% of their downs: the 5th-greatest rate on the slate this week.Still weather conditions (like the 4-mph wind being called for in this game) typically lead to better passing efficiency, increased TD potential, increased air attack volume, and reduced ground volume.The predictive model expects Travis Etienne to total 4.2 targets in this contest, on average, ranking him in the 89th percentile among RBs.After totaling -5.0 air yards per game last year, Travis Etienne has undergone big improvement this year, now averaging 6.0 per game.
