Key Factors

Favors Over

THE BLITZ projects the Chiefs to call the 5th-most plays on offense among all teams this week with 67.6 plays, accounting for their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
The Kansas City Chiefs have run the 8th-most plays in the NFL since the start of last season, averaging a monstrous 60.2 plays per game.
The Kansas City Chiefs have played in the 2nd-most "bad weather" (rain, snow, or 15+ mph wind) games in the league since the start of last season, which should mean higher pass volume, reduced running volume, and improved pass game effectiveness when facing better conditions in this game.
The weather report calls for 4-mph wind in this game. Low wind generally means increased pass volume, increased touchdown potential, and increased passing efficiency.
Opposing teams have averaged 39.6 pass attempts per game versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense since the start of last season: most in football.

Favors Under

THE BLITZ projects Travis Kelce to be a much smaller part of his offense's pass game near the goal line this week (22.5% projected Red Zone Target Share) than he has been this year (28.0% in games he has played).
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense has given up the 9th-least touchdowns through the air in football to tight ends: 0.30 per game since the start of last season.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers safeties grade out as the 3rd-best unit in the NFL since the start of last season in covering receivers.
The Kansas City Chiefs have been faced with a stacked the box on just 9.3% of their plays since the start of last season, least in the league. Positioning an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the cost of better passing efficiency.
The Kansas City Chiefs have gone no-huddle on just 1.8% of their plays outside the two-minute warning since the start of last season (least in the league). This slows the pace, resulting in less volume and stat accumulation.
