The read
  1. Atlanta rank 18th against short throws, which make up 77% of Rice's targets.
  2. Work the middle: 22% of his targets go that way and Atlanta rank 22nd defending throws there.
  3. Free data doesn't show who covers whom on each snap, so this is the defence's profile, not a confirmed one-on-one.
