Right now, the 4th-most pass-oriented offense in football (64.3% in a neutral context) according to the model is the Los Angeles Rams.The predictive model expects this game to have the largest volume of plays run on the slate this week at 141.0 plays, based on the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.Still weather conditions (like the 0-mph wind being predicted in this game) typically cause better passing efficiency, increased TD potential, increased air volume, and reduced ground volume.Tyler Higbee rates as one of the top pass-catching tight ends this year, averaging an excellent 29.0 adjusted yards per game while grading out in the 76th percentile.This year, the poor Saints pass defense has given up a monstrous 80.9% Adjusted Completion Rate vs. opposing tight ends: the 9th-biggest rate in the NFL.
