Pros
- The Seahawks are a 3-point underdog in this game, which points towards a passing game script.
- THE BLITZ projects the Seattle Seahawks as the 5th-most pass-oriented offense on the slate this week with a 63.7% pass rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics.
- THE BLITZ projects this game to see the 4th-most plays run on the slate this week at 135.2 plays, accounting for the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
- Opposing quarterbacks have averaged 37.1 pass attempts per game versus the Kansas City Chiefs defense this year: 8th-most in the NFL.
- THE BLITZ projects DK Metcalf to notch 11.6 targets in this contest, on average, placing him in the 99th percentile among wideouts.
Cons
- The Seattle Seahawks have run the 6th-least plays in football this year, totaling a mere 54.1 plays per game.
- DK Metcalf has been among the worst WRs in football at grinding out extra yardage, averaging a measly 3.03 yards-after-the-catch (YAC) this year while checking in at the 23rd percentile.
- The Kansas City Chiefs cornerbacks profile as the 5th-best collection of CBs in the NFL this year in covering receivers.
- The Kansas City Chiefs pass rush has gotten pressure on opposing quarterbacks a mere 2.31 seconds after the snap (on average), grading out as the fastest in football since the start of last season.
- The Seattle Seahawks have faced a stacked the box on just 11.5% of their plays since the start of last season, 4th-least in the league. Positioning an extra defender close to the line of scrimmage improves run-stopping at the expense of better passing efficiency.
