With a 7-point advantage, the Rams are heavily favored this week, suggesting much more of an emphasis on rushing than their usual approach.The weatherman calls for 15-mph wind in this game. High wind typically means reduced pass volume (and higher run volume) and worse passing effectiveness.After accruing 42.0 air yards per game last year, Tutu Atwell has gotten worse this year, now sitting at 35.0 per game.Tutu Atwell's 15.5 WOPR (Weighted Opportunity Rating—an advanced stat that measures high-value offensive usage) has been notably lower this year than it was last year at 28.5.When talking about pass-blocking (and the significance it has on all pass game metrics), the O-line of the Rams ranks as the 5th-worst in the NFL this year.
