Pros
- An extreme running game script is indicated by the Cowboys being an enormous 7-point favorite in this week’s game.
- Based on the game dynamics and the underlying tendencies of each team, this contest is anticipated by the projections to have just 129.3 offensive plays called: the 3rd-fewest on the slate this week.
- The Cowboys have called the 5th-most plays in the NFL this year, totaling a monstrous 60.4 plays per game.
- The leading projections forecast Tony Pollard to notch 15.2 rush attempts in this contest, on average, putting him in the 79th percentile when it comes to running backs.
Cons
- Right now, the least run-centric team in football (35.6% context-neutralized) according to our trusted projection set is the Cowboys.
- This game will be played in a dome—meaning zero wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and better passing effectiveness.
