- THE BLITZ projects this game to have the 2nd-highest volume of plays run out of all the games this week at 133.0 plays, given the tendencies of each team and game dynamics.
- The Arizona Cardinals have called the 4th-most plays in the NFL this year, totaling a monstrous 70.2 plays per game.
- This game will be played in a dome—meaning no wind, higher pass volume, higher TD potential, and increased passing efficiency.
Cons
- The Philadelphia Eagles pass defense has allowed the lowest Completion% in the league (53.9%) to wideouts this year (53.9%).
- The Philadelphia Eagles pass defense has displayed good efficiency vs. WRs this year, yielding 6.47 yards-per-target to the position: the 3rd-least in the NFL.
- The Philadelphia Eagles cornerbacks project as the 2nd-best CB corps in the league this year in covering receivers.
- The Arizona Cardinals offensive line has allowed their QB a measly 2.34 seconds before getting pressured (2nd-worst in football since the start of last season), which has a negative impact on all pass attack statistics across the board.
- The Philadelphia Eagles defensive front has gotten pressure on opposing QBs a mere 2.40 seconds after the snap (on average), ranking as the 7th-quickest in football since the start of last season.
