Key Factors
Favors Over
The predictive model expects the Colts to call the 2nd-most plays on offense on the slate this week with 66.0 plays, based on their underlying tendencies and game dynamics.
The pass attacks of both teams (including both volume and effectiveness) stand to benefit from the calm "weather" conditions (read: zero wind) inside this dome, while rush volume may drop-off.
When talking about protecting the quarterback (and the positive impact it has on all pass attack statistics), the offensive line of the Colts profiles as the best in football since the start of last season.
When it comes to the defensive ends' role in defending against the run, Houston's group of DEs has been terrific since the start of last season, projecting as the 5th-best in the league.

The Colts are willing to include receivers in their run game, and Ashton Dulin has been given 1.4% of red zone carries since the start of last season (0th among WRs).
