From the article

Pittsburgh has a 24-point implied team total versus a Saints defense that ranks 23rd in EPA per dropback and they've been leaning on Rodgers' arm to put up points. Their +4.3% pass rate over expected is the third-highest in the NFL. Only four quarterbacks have attempted more passes than Rodgers. This is ultimately a volume play, but one that has gotten home with striking consistency this year.
