THE BLITZ projects the New Orleans Saints as the 11th-least pass-oriented team on the slate this week with a 55.9% pass rate, based on their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics. The New Orleans Saints have played in the 7th-most "low wind" (4-mph or less) games in the league since the start of last season, which should lead to lower pass volume, increased running volume, and reduced pass game efficiency when facing windier conditions in this week's game. Opposing teams have averaged 29.1 pass attempts per game versus the Green Bay Packers defense since the start of last season: 2nd-least in the NFL. The New Orleans Saints O-line profiles as the 9th-worst in football since the start of last season in protecting the QB, which has a harmful effect on all passing game metrics across the board. The Green Bay Packers linebackers rank as the 6th-best collection of LBs in football since the start of last season in covering receivers.
