Pros

  • This game’s spread indicates an extreme passing game script for the Bears, who are huge -7.5-point underdogs.
  • This game will be played in a dome—which means zero wind, higher pass volume, higher touchdown potential, and better passing efficiency.
  • The projections expect Cole Kmet to notch 5.9 targets in this week’s contest, on balance, placing him in the 90th percentile among tight ends.
  • Cole Kmet has totaled a colossal 31.0 air yards per game this year: 85th percentile when it comes to tight ends.
  • Cole Kmet has totaled significantly more adjusted receiving yards per game (50.0) this year than he did last year (32.0).
Cons

  • The leading projections forecast the Chicago Bears as the 6th-least pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 54.1% pass rate, based on their underlying play style and matchup dynamics.
  • Our trusted projections expect the Bears to run the 2nd-fewest offensive plays among all teams this week with 60.8 plays, accounting for their underlying propensities and game dynamics.
  • Cole Kmet’s 73.9% Route% this year shows a meaningful decline in his passing offense usage over last year’s 84.0% figure.
  • The Chicago offensive line profiles as the 10th-worst in the NFL this year in protecting the QB, which has a harmful impact on all pass attack stats across the board.
  • This year, the strong Detroit Lions defense has conceded a paltry 69.9% Adjusted Completion Rate versus opposing tight ends: the 10th-smallest rate in football.
