Matchup Breakdown
How the model sees it unfold — the matchups that decide the game, from 50 simulationsKeys to the Game
- Bucky Irving (Buccaneers) vs Teddye Buchanan (Ravens) - winner: Teddye Buchanan, holding him to 2.8 yds a carry - the front wins up front.
- Zay Flowers (Ravens) vs Jacob Parrish (Buccaneers) - winner: Zay Flowers, open on 65% of routes for 5.6/7.1, 53 yds a game - a mismatch to exploit.
In the Trenches
- Don't expect much heat from the Ravens — a 48% win rate yields only 4.8 sacks and 24.7 pressures a game, with Trenton Simpson (1.4 sacks, 6.7 pressures a game) setting the tone.
- The Buccaneers may have to manufacture pressure, winning 51% up front for 4.3 sacks a game — Yaya Diaby (1.3 sacks, 6.6 pressures a game) out front.
Through the Air
- Through the air it is Zay Flowers' show for the Ravens: 53 yds a game, open on 65% of routes.
- Through the air it is Emeka Egbuka's show for the Buccaneers: 29 yds a game, open on 43% of routes.
- Kyle Hamilton (Ravens) is a problem in coverage, holding his man open on just 27% of routes, adding 0.1 INT a game.
On the Ground
