At a -12.5-point disadvantage, the Titans are heavy underdogs in this week's contest, suggesting much more of a reliance on moving the ball through the air than their normal game plan.The predictive model expects the Tennessee Titans as the 6th-most pass-heavy team on the slate this week with a 61.0% pass rate, given their underlying play style and matchup dynamics.The 49ers defense has been a notorious pass funnel this year, inciting opposing teams to attempt the 9th-most passes in the league (36.1 per game) this year.After totaling 26.0 air yards per game last year, Van Jefferson has shown good development this year, now pacing 35.0 per game.This year, the poor San Francisco 49ers pass defense has yielded a whopping 67.4% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing wideouts: the 6th-worst rate in the NFL.
