The predictive model expects the Texans to call the 5th-fewest offensive plays among all teams this week with 63.1 plays, given their underlying strategic approach and game dynamics.The pass games of both teams (including both volume and efficiency) figure to benefit from the still "weather" conditions (meaning no wind) inside this dome, while run volume may drop-off.As it relates to blocking for ball-carriers (and the importance it has on all run game metrics), the O-line of the Houston Texans ranks as the 2nd-worst in the league last year.C.J. Stroud's running efficiency (4.69 adjusted yards per carry) has been some of the worst in the league this year (23rd percentile when it comes to QBs).With a terrible record of 1.14 yards-after-contact (18th percentile), C.J. Stroud places among the bottom rushing QBs in football this year.
