Key Factors

Favors Over

THE BLITZ projects the New England Patriots offense as the 7th-fastest paced team in the league (adjusted for context) right now, averaging 27.53 seconds per snap.
The Indianapolis Colts pass defense has allowed the 10th-highest Completion% in the league (67.9%) versus wide receivers this year (67.9%).
The Indianapolis Colts linebackers project as the 7th-worst unit in the NFL this year in covering pass-catchers.
The New England Patriots have gone up against a stacked the box on 27.7% of their plays since the start of last season, most in the league. Positioning an extra defender near the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
The New England Patriots have utilized some form of misdirection on 52.8% of their plays since the start of last season (8th-most in football), which can make an offense more unpredictable and more effective.

Favors Under

The Patriots are a 4.5-point favorite in this week's game, likely creating a rushing game script.
THE BLITZ projects the New England Patriots to be the 5th-least pass-centric team among all teams this week with a 54.7% pass rate, accounting for their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
The weather forecast calls for 13-mph wind in this game. High wind usually means reduced pass volume (and increased run volume) and worse passing efficiency.
Opposing offenses have averaged 31.0 pass attempts per game versus the Indianapolis Colts defense this year: 4th-least in football.
The New England Patriots O-line has afforded their quarterback just 2.53 seconds before the pass (8th-worst in football since the start of last season), which has a harmful impact on all pass attack stats across the board.
