Based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics, the Indianapolis Colts are forecasted by our trusted projection set to call 66.1 plays on offense in this game: the 8th-most among all teams this week.The passing games of both teams (as it relates to both volume and effectiveness) figure to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (read: zero wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may fall-off.Among all running backs this year, Ameer Abdullah ranks in the lowly 1st percentile for red zone rush attempts, comprising 0.0% of the usage in his offense's rushing attack near the end zone.When it comes to air yards, Ameer Abdullah ranks in the towering 80th percentile among running backs since the start of last season, accruing a monstrous 1.0 per game. (as a result of being targeted behind the line of scrimmage, this is far more notable than it sounds since most RBs average negative air yards).The Indianapolis Colts O-line profiles as the 3rd-best in the league this year in protecting the QB, which has a strong effect on all passing attack statistics across the board.
