Given their underlying tendencies and matchup dynamics, the projections expect the Rams to run on 39.5% of their plays: the 5th-lowest rate among all teams this week.The passing attacks of both teams (as it relates to both volume and efficiency) stand to benefit from the calm weather conditions (1-mph wind) being projected in this game, while ground volume may suffer.The leading projections forecast Kyren Williams to be a less important option in his team's running game in this contest (59.5% projected Carry Share) than he has been last year (78.7% in games he has played).When it comes to the defensive ends' role in run defense, Houston's collection of DEs has been exceptional last year, projecting as the 4th-best in the NFL.
