Pros
- The projections expect the Lions to call the 6th-most total plays among all teams this week with 65.8 plays, given their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics.
- The 5th-highest number of plays in the NFL have been run by the Detroit Lions this year (a massive 62.8 per game on average).
- Our trusted projections expect Jared Goff to attempt 36.2 passes in this game, on average: the 7th-most among all QBs.
- The Chargers defense has been a well-known pass funnel this year, eliciting opposing QBs to attempt the 3rd-most passes in the league (41.0 per game) this year.
- Jared Goff profiles as one of the leading passers in football this year, averaging an exceptional 273.0 adjusted yards per game while ranking in the 87th percentile.
Cons
- The Lions rank as the 10th-least pass-heavy offense in football (in a neutral context) this year with a 59.9% pass rate.
