The Commanders may throw the ball less in this week's contest (and hand the ball off more) given that they be forced to start backup QB Josh Johnson.A passing game script is implied by the Commanders being a -6.5-point underdog in this week's game.Given the game dynamics and the underlying tendencies of each team, this contest is expected by the projection model to see 131.8 total plays run: the 5th-highest number on the slate this week.Opposing teams have averaged 36.5 pass attempts per game versus the Cowboys defense this year: 9th-most in football.While Treylon Burks has garnered 11.2% of his team's targets in games he has played this year, the predictive model expects him to be a more integral piece of Washington's offense this week at 18.0%.
